The Divine Genius’s Game Broadcasting Chapter 84

Episode 84 – Editor's Night

Late at night.

Streamer Purple's broadcast may have ended, but Team Perfect's work is not over. Rather, the real work is just starting now.

Editor Choi Byeong-hun finished the video he was working on.

[Perfect Ryu Equipment Production Method, 'Manhae (萬垓)'!]

On the screen, there was a speech bubble used in comics next to Lee Kyung-bok holding a hammer in a blacksmith shop.

The thumbnail and title were chosen by Choi Byeong-hun.

'Okay. Let's start with this first.'

He took a quick breath after pressing the upload button, but it wasn't time to take a break yet.

He opened the chat right away.

[>Video editing completed]

[>I will review and correct it immediately after receiving feedback]

The other party was a freelance editor named 'Madman'. Since the broadcast ended later than usual, the workload also increased, so I asked for another commission.

This was a video that included the fight with the Fallen Knight and before the boss fight with the Seolsan Dragon.

Choi Byeong-hun quickly scanned the video and wrote down his feedback.

[>The story was okay until the dragon.]

[>But the battle scene of the fallen knight needs to be changed]

[>First of all, slow motion was used too much. I understand that Purple wanted to give points by processing things too quickly, but if the same direction is repeated, it gets boring quickly, right?]

[>Rather than that, diversify the camera work. Or show it from the perspective of the reporter who is being attacked, for example.]

[>I know it's comfortable to be familiar with something. But please pay more attention to the fact that it's different from the modern warfare sensibility and think about it a little more.]

Even though we are close, we must strictly separate our work and personal lives.

Madman, who has been editing Gunner Grounds professionally, was obviously lacking in editing these cold-weapon battles.

[>Okay!]

[>Thanks for the feedback. Now that I hear it, it's all true. This way, we can't make the purple stand out more.]

[>We will reflect as much as possible and deliver a revised version]

As soon as Choi Byung-hoon sent a message, he received a reply right away. Even with the harsh evaluation, his enthusiasm was evident.

'This guy is completely absorbed now.'

Choi Byung-hoon laughed at Madman's attitude.

'After all, where can you find a sauce as good as Gyeongbok?'

Mad Men like money, but they like the reaction to their work even more.

In that respect, Lee Kyung-bok is the best video source in and of itself, so others won't easily catch his eye.

'If you're even putting your own channel aside, then that says it all.'

It was also because of this that the channel run by Madman, 'Mad Gunner', had been uploading videos less frequently recently.

“Uuuuu… … !”

Choi Byeong-hun stretched and got up from his seat. He could hear the sound coming from his stiff body and bones.

He opened a can of energy drink he kept in the fridge. He quenched his thirst lightly and checked the community with his smart link.

“Huh… … The firepower is still amazing.”

There was no need to search for Purple's name separately, as most of the posts were reviews of the broadcast.

Interestingly, the reactions were also largely divided into two categories.

[Spoiler] Fromm didn't forget the King God roots]

[The Elden series is truly a masterpiece!]

[Unlike the previous work, I thought the treatment of the knights was a bit different, but it was as expected lol]

[If you think you are an Eltak, watch the Invincible Purple broadcast. Watch it twice.]

Users with high community account levels and a long history of activity, as well as old-timers of the Elden series, expressed satisfaction with the Knights' activities being highlighted this time.

[From's next new work is out ㅋㅋㅋ]

[Did you know that Elden Musou was released?]

[Elden Jeilgeom has proven that the sword is the king of all illnesses!]

[Who is the guy who told Daguri to use a spear? Is he from Shandong Music?]

On the other hand, newbies with relatively low account levels focused more on Purple's performance. Among them, the admiration for the 'Musou' play, which was thought to be impossible in the Elden series, was the main focus.

Choi Byung-hoon laughed at the community joke and turned his attention to posts with many recommendations.

[How do you think Godple will attack the final boss?]

A post with quite a few comments caught his eye. Choi Byeong-hun read the content.

[First of all, I saw one ending

But since newbies can see it, please refrain from spoilers and leave comments ㅋㅋㅋ

For the newbies who may not know, the final boss is so tough that Fromm recommends co-op.]

[-If it's purple, it's an invincible solo play, lol]

[It is possible if it is Elden's First Sword]

[LOL lol I heard another video is coming out]

[But if you play solo, isn't it a bad ending?]

[Nsfw I told you not to spoil it, but there are some people who spoil it]

[N-Spo-chung blocking sg]

[-Co-op is right, lol I did it too]

[ㅇㅇㅇ Ikldo also selected 5 people after screening]

[Oh, that was really fun lol]

[LOL lol but it was still really close]

[From really planned the final boss fight in a vicious wayㅋㅋㅋㅋ]

[-If you expect a sniper, isn't it a merger?]

[Oh? Then should I go with Ikle?]

[I'm close with that guy too lol]

[Then is it a fuzzy combination? LOL]

[Surprisingly, Newton's seat isn't showing up? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ]

[Do you want to fight with that bad guy? F*ck]

As Choi Byung-hoon was quickly scanning the comments, a beeping notification sound took his concentration away.

“Oh, it’s done.”

It was a notification that the video upload was complete. Choi Byung-hoon put the hologram away and sat back down at his desk.

There was still a lot of footage to edit.

'I'll upload it before lunch somehow.'

The video should be uploaded when the broadcast is in the spotlight to maximize traffic. The optimal time for this is lunchtime.

Another reason was that there were many people who watched YouTube while eating.

'I need to ride the popularity surge again.'

More importantly, YouTube's algorithm was the key. Given the increasing number of views, a video uploaded around lunchtime would be registered as a video with a sharp increase in popularity in the evening or at night.

'That way you can attract more potential viewers.'

The role of an editor is not simply to edit and upload videos. Running a channel is not a hobby, but a business, so it requires strategy.

In that respect, Choi Byeong-hun was a great editor. He was a talented person who fit the 'Team Perfect' mold, possessing both passion and skill.

He threw himself into his work again. Even while editing the boss battle footage, he reviewed and uploaded the revised version of Madman.

* * *

The dark sky turned blue. The night passed and dawn came. It was only when the morning sunlight came in through the window.

“Ugh… … It’s over!”

Choi Byung-hoon was able to finish all the work, and he finished it earlier than expected.

[>Choi Byeong-hun, aren't you asleep yet?]

Just then, a message from Park Joo-ho arrived.

[>ㅇㅇ I'm not asleep yet]

[>Are you feeling okay?]

[>It's fine. It'll end sooner.]

[>So the video has been uploaded too?]

[>ㅇㅇ Uploading now.]

[>Okay, you worked hard. Now go to sleep quickly.]

Choi Byeong-hun burst out laughing.

It was because, as expected of a manager, he immediately checked the editor's condition and work schedule as soon as he woke up.

[>Oh, everyone's awake.]

[>The broadcast ended a bit late yesterday, so the video is a bit long, right?]

Finally, a message from Lee Kyung-bok arrived.

[>Ma! I told you I can cover this much?]

[>And the more videos you have to choose from, the more money you can make, right? LOL]

[>Choi Byeong-hun, if you do that, it will be a minus]

[>As I always say, managing your condition is the first priority.]

[> Joo-ho is right lol.]

[>I'm glad you're okay. I'm going to exercise in the morning, so call me if anything is urgent.]

[>ㅇㅇ Good work. I'm going to sleep now.]

It was early morning, but from now on, it was his time to sleep. Choi Byeong-hun finished getting ready and laid down on the bed.

The fatigue that I had put off by drinking energy drinks came rushing back to me, so I wanted to just go to sleep.

'Let's just watch the video reactions and then go to sleep.'

Choi Byung-hoon was also a creator. Like Madman, he also gained strength from seeing the reactions to his work.

“Wow… … Already 200,000.”

The first weapon crafting video I uploaded received a hot response. Even in the early hours of the morning, the number of views had already surpassed 200,000, and the number of comments was over 500.

[-What the heckㅋㅋㅋ I saw the titleㅋㅋㅋ]

[Nman! Kai!]

[No way lol that's not it!]

[Why are you suddenly here?]

[Because it's likely to be the year ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ]

[The editor’s sense was perfect, wasn’t it?]

[ㄹㅇㅋㅋ One of the reasons I watch Pertube again ㅋㅋㅋ]

[N Black company victim ㅠㅠ]

Choi Byung-hoon's lips parted at the praise from his subscribers. The fatigue that had been weighing on his body disappeared in an instant.

"ok?"

While I was checking the comments, there was one comment that caught my eye. It was a comment that I couldn't help but notice because of the rapidly increasing number of recommendations.

[AnatomyQA]

This was because the famous YouTuber, 'AnatomyQA', who is synonymous with analysis content, appeared on Purple's channel again.

That wasn't the only reason it was recommended.

[hello!

Perfect Play, and subscribers!

My name is AnatomyQA.

I previously commented on the Biocrisis Coin Vending Machine video.

I was surprised then, but not as surprised as I am now. I thought the Biocrisis footage was just a coincidence.

But if it happens twice, it's fate. I think so. This time, Elden Soul's equipment crafting is not a coincidence.

I eventually gave up on this production. At the time, I thought that if I could give it up, no one else would be able to do it.

The first feeling I had after watching this video was shame. I realized that I had forgotten why I was loved by my subscribers.

I'm going to try again.

Just as you are, I will live up to my name.

PS

I heard that my comment on the Biocrisis video became a hot topic because of the machine translation.

So this time I asked for a translation.]

It was a fairly long comment, unlike before, and surprisingly, it was written purely in Korean and not a translation.

'They say that a true genius is known worldwide.'

Choi Byung-hoon smiled and pinned the comment back to the top. Then he went to sleep with a satisfied look on his face.

* * *

A little late for lunch.

It was Team Perfect's meeting time.

However, the place was not my regular cafe, but a samgyetang restaurant.

It was a place for Choi Byeong-hun, who had more work to do than usual.

“Hey, isn’t our company’s welfare system really that good?”

“Actually, I was craving samgyetang, but you’re making excuses and eating it.”

When Choi Byeong-hun asked with a big smile, Lee Gyeong-bok answered playfully. The three of them quickly started eating.

“Oh my, you are so blessed. Try this too.”

During the meal, the restaurant owner smiled and placed a plate on the table. On it was grilled pollack.

“What is this?”

Park Joo-ho asked, adjusting his glasses. The woman glanced at Lee Gyeong-bok and said.

“It’s service, service. Our house-made dried pollack is also delicious. If you try it and like it, please give me an autograph before you leave.”

“Is this a sign?”

Lee Kyung-bok opened his eyes wide.

“What, you didn’t come here to film? You were doing editing and stuff. Aren’t you a celebrity?”

“Ahaha, no, aunt.”

“Oh my? Really? Why?”

The woman looked like she really didn't understand. But soon she smiled again and pushed the plate to the center.

“Then you will soon become a celebrity. Don’t forget our store later. This is a bribe. A bribe.”

"that……"

“Oh, thank you. I’ll enjoy it.”

When the old woman started to whine, Park Joo-ho frowned slightly. Before he could finish speaking, Choi Byeong-hoon took a bite of the grilled pollack.

At this, the woman smiled and left. Park Joo-ho frowned and glared at Choi Byeong-hun.

“Hey, you… … ”

“Hey, I was just worried that you might ruin the mood by being too strict. Try it. It’s delicious.”

Lee Gyeong-bok nodded at Choi Byeong-hun’s words.

“Yeah, I meant it well, but whatever.”

“Well, if you don’t mind.”

There was a slight incident, but the meal was quickly concluded. This was a characteristic of mealtimes when men gathered together.

Only after filling our stomachs did the real agenda come up.

“Final Boss Raid?”

“Uh. I think it would be better to decide this and then go into the broadcast.”

“I agree with this. I try not to give you as much information in advance as possible so that you can immerse yourself, but if you don’t know this, you might get lost in the broadcast.”

Lee Kyung-bok listened to his friends' words.

“Is there any problem?”

“First of all, this raid is a Holy Spirit raid, so you can do it with up to 10 other players.”

“And you can do this solo, but if you do it solo, you’re guaranteed to get the bad ending.”

“Bad ending?”

Lee Kyung-bok's eyes widened. If he had proceeded without knowing for sure, this could have distorted the broadcast.

“If you play solo, Alicia comes in as a supporter, but she dies during the battle?”

“Oh, that won’t do.”

Lee Kyung-bok immediately shook his head. He had been seeing the viewers' affection for Alicia all along.

It was clear that if Alicia died as the game's ending approached, the tension of the broadcast would drop to the bottom.

“But if you just invite people randomly, snipers might come in again.”

“The kids who couldn’t get in the duel must be waiting for this.”

“Ahem… … ”

The malicious snipers who came in during the duel were not likely to come back again since Metagamer responded. However, there were still many other snipers besides them.

“So the community was expecting that Ikle or Genome would merge.”

“Actually, that’s the safest way to do it, but it’s a bit rude to do it on the same day.”

“Hey, but I don’t think those two would think that way?”

When Choi Byung-hoon came out and said something like, “What’s wrong?” Park Joo-ho shook his head with a stern face.

“You might be right, just like the two of them, but what about the employees below them? If their schedules change suddenly, they’ll feel resentful. I don’t think they’ll openly express their dissatisfaction, though.”

“Oh, um… … That’s true. Come to think of it, I’ve experienced something like that before too.”

Lee Kyung-bok looked at his two friends who were actively thinking and said a word.

“Let’s go for an impromptu show. I think it’ll be more fun.”

“You want to fill it with viewers?”

“No, I told you earlier. I said a sniper might get in.”

When the two friends immediately expressed their concerns, Lee Gyeong-bok answered with a smile.

"doesn't care."

"ok?"

“It doesn’t matter… …?”

Lee Kyung-bok said, looking at the plate of grilled pollack that was served as a service and now had only bones left.

“It’ll be fun when the sniping comes.”
