The Canvass and The Ball

Continuation...............................................I need to go somewhere............



Minho hearing the word billion coming out from Key’s lips falls in a deep trance blankly staring at the latter and numb – akin to someone infused with Novocain and so Key nudges the other…

“Hey…Minho…
This is why I don’t want to tell you because you end up like stupid cute…
Aaasshhh…Hey…Minho…”

“Aaahhh…
(shakes his head) Okay…
Am alright…Continue…continue…
I want to hear it for educational purposes…”

Key:                (arcs his lips) Educational…?
                       Somehow…No connection…?
                       Hhhmmm… 

Minho:             (challenges Key) I have no idea about the world of arts
                       and I just know now how surprising it is that you know…
                       There are people who’d be willing to go beyond insane
                       about spending so enormously huge…
                       They must really over-the-top love art…

Key:                (nods) I concur…anyway…
                       The second range which we call the random buyers or
                        on occasional basis…
                        From 5 million dollars to 15 million dollars…
                        (discreetly watches Minho’s reaction which ends up the
                        same like minutes ago but this time, ignores)

                        Then we have the extraordinary people who are
                        basically regulars and rare meaning…
                        Regular to buy my works on various occasion…
                        Who in total accumulated amount would spend
                        20 million more than for just one piece or
                        could be so many pieces like 3 items worth 20 million onwards…

Minho:             (soft tone) oooooohhhhh…..sssshhhhhheeee…
                       (covers his lips)…

Key:                Ssssshhhheeeeetttt….
                       Is what you mean…?

Minho just nods while staring intensely at Key then taken aback – thinks then after looks back at Key and asks…

“How many guests are here right now…”

“I was told about a hundred and ten guests…”

Minho:             And these are all your clients…

Key:                (thinks and says) Let me see…
                       Approximately close to 110 guests…

Minho:             90 that is…
                       How many would you consider regulars, rare and
                       extraordinary out of the 110…?

Key:                (puffs) I know where you are getting at but fine,
                       I will say it anyway…
                       Not all of them are my clients.
                       Let’s say only 90 out of the 110 are my clients.
                       40 are regulars, 30 are in the random category
                        and the remaining 20 guests are the extraordinary…

Minho:             They order from your works of art once a year….
                        Approximate…?

Key:                (shrugs his shoulders) Hhhmm…Yyeahh…
                       On the average because there are some regardless of
                       categories order twice a year…
                       Or an educated guess is one third orders on a yearly basis…
                       Some biennial… it depends…

Minho:             (looks so seriously at Key)
                       We are of the same age…
                       We are both college students…
                       We are both passionate on something but…
                       How come...Key…?

Key:                Yeah…?

Minho:             What was your age when you had your first client and the amount…?

Key:                I was 10 years old after winning a competition.
                       It was sold to a highest bidder worth 5million USDollars…

Minho:             Uuuggghhh…that is why...awesome…and…but…
                       (stops when he suddenly remembers that their
                       conversation will bring them both back on Key’s childhood)

                       So like…Wow…5million…
                       (bites his lips) Such a young age…
                       In Korea, you were already a billionaire…
                       (gasps) And now…oh my…I mean…
                       (open palm at Key) Am good in math…hold on…

Key:                (wonders) What are you doing…?

Minho:             Calculating…Wait…
                        Let’s say of your 90 buyers…You have…
                        For regulars, we say 40 M;
                        For seldom clients, we say…150M;
                        For Mars clients…

Key:                (chuckles upon hearing Mars)
                       Mars…?

Minho:             (nods) Oh yeah…
                       In fact these people are all from Mars…
                       You know what I mean by it...
                       Okay to continue…
                       Mars clients, we say…
                       An jaw dropping 400M so in total we have…
                       Almost 600Million in three…
                       So total approximately for the one third would be more than…
                       200Million a year…
                       (looks back at Key)
                       Oh my goodness Key…Is this your worth…?

Key:                I dunno…? I don’t count…

Minho:             What the heck…
                       Who manages your entire affairs…?
                       Auntie…?

Key:                (shakes his head) Mom overlooks
                       but Onew manages my entire business affairs
                       with the help of our trusted top personnel…
                       And am telling you right now…
                       Onew is a very good, honest and decent guy…
                       He was the one who open the market for me…
                       And up to now, he refuses to get a huge right amount of
                       share for himself but I will force it to him later on…
                       He is contented to be with me and spends all his entire
                       energy for me…

Minho:             (takes a deep finally breath)
                       Wwwooooaaa…
                       Goodness Key…
                       You are one of a kind…
                       Also from Mars...
                       (takes a deep breath) So we are talking about billions of billions of won…
                       You should be included in you know…
                       Like the Forbes Magazine…
