He really doesn't want to be popular with Pixiu [Entertainment Circle]

"A business endorsement contract?"

Black and white, written clearly.

But Ling Xiu was still very surprised.

"That's right." Shen Jianshu habitually brushed her broken hair behind her ears, and gracefully picked up her cup to take a sip of tea, "Do you know this brand of watch?"

Ling Xiu nodded.

"This is a sub-brand of the big luxury brand vlv that I went to cooperate with in the show before. I think many young people like it very much."

The English name of this wristwatch named NEBULA means Nebula, and Ling Xiu always looked at the advertisements on the Internet, so he was very impressed.

"It's improved, I have a certain understanding of the fashion industry." Shen Jianshu nodded with a smile, "NEBULA watches are positioned as an affordable luxury brand, and the target customers are urban young men and women white-collar workers. Recently, this brand has become very popular in China, and it is called fashionista. People are standard."

"How did they come up with me?"

Ling Xiu remembered that the previous spokesperson of this brand was a traffic artist with a very large number of fans.

——Not to mention the endorsement, the temporary promotion of NEBULA watches are all popular artists.

"Because you have become popular recently and your fashion expressiveness is strong enough." Shen Jianshu put down his glass, "You have retreated to read scripts these days and rarely go online, maybe you don't know how popular your photos from the show are."

"Sister, what's the situation?" It is true that he has been surfing the Internet less these days.

"You go to see the infield photos of the Vlv brand show, and they are reposted by big Vs in various fields, especially KOLs in the fashion circle. There is a blogger whose secondary creation has been reposted more than 5 times. You know [-] times What is the concept? That is not the data made by the data group, but [-] live netizens."

"It's not just Weibo." Shen Jianshu continued, "This group of photos of your show has also been made into a small video, which has a huge number of views on various short video platforms, and has been searched many times. Those few short videos of yours The account has grown a lot in the past few days."

"...I really didn't expect that."

Those few photos are good-looking, but he himself did not expect such a good effect and such a high popularity.

"So everything is not accidental, and it's not a pie in the sky." Shen Jianshu said, "You are very fashionable and good-looking. You are popular now, and the business sales in the past few times have been good, even if the current coffee position is not very high. , is also enough to attract these brand parties. The other party is quite sincere, not asking you to be a publicity officer, friend ambassador, and directly give the spokesperson's title."

Ling Xiu agreed.

This brand doesn't have so many routines, so it's fine if you don't want to use him to cut a wave of leeks.

Sure enough, big names have the dignity of big names.

"Xiao Ling, I have reviewed the contract with the company." Shen Jianshu took out his mobile phone and looked at it, and said seriously: "But this is your endorsement after all, I came here specially today to let you have a look, if there is no problem, I will be there after the audition The contract can be formally signed."

"Sister, you are amazing."

Ling Xiu flipped through the draft contract terms and praised them from the bottom of his heart.

He knew very well in his heart that although the brand side was very sincere, the role of his agent should not be underestimated for a rookie to win such an important endorsement.

"You deserve it." Shen Jianshu smiled sweetly, completely different from the usual sister Yu, "We agreed that as artists and managers, we should rely on each other and reach the top together."

"Must." Ling Xiu was full of confidence.

"I still have to go back to the company for a meeting, so let's go first. Take your time to read the contract." Shen Jianshu got up to take the bag, and still did not forget to tell him, "I have to audition tomorrow, go to bed early tonight, don't stay up late, and don't eat junk food."

"Understood!" Ling Xiu followed Chang Xiaosong's example and saluted, "You must keep your spirits up for tomorrow's big exam."

……

It was the second time I came to the Crown Hotel, and Ling Xiu felt a little different.

When I came here last time, I felt that everything was new, and I wanted to take a look at everything that was lively.

Even if a stray cat sneaks into the hotel, I want to have a chat with it.

But this time is different, Ling Xiu has no intention of hanging out, and just wants to prepare for the audition with peace of mind.

Shen Jianshu seconded a little girl from the company to be a temporary assistant for a day.

The little girl is diligent and conscientious in her work, but she talks less—especially when compared with Chang Xiaosong, the difference is even more obvious.

Not to mention, without that kid chattering around, it would be quite deserted.

I don't know if Chang's father is getting better or not.

"Brother Xiu."

Just when Ling Xiu's mood was a little erratic, a gentle female voice came.

It's Taotao, today's temporary assistant.

She held a thermos, "Brother, drink some water to moisten your throat."

"Thank you."

Ling Xiu took the thermos cup, and as soon as he opened the lid, the special smell of the fat sea in the cup wafted out.

To be honest, he didn't like the smell very much.

"Brother, brother Xiaosong sent me a wechat message to remind me to drink. Don't frown, drink more." Taotao covered her mouth and smiled.

Shen Jianshu also laughed.

I knew Komatsu was careful.

"Okay, for Xiaosong's sake, I'll drink some."

Ling Xiu drank water like medicine while waiting for the crew's notification.

The movie audition procedure was similar to last time, the artists rested in the designated room first, and then the staff would come to inform the time and place of the lottery.

Fortunately, the waiting time was not as long as last time.

Ling Xiu had just drank a few sips of Pang Dahai bubble water when there was a knock on the door of the room.

The crew sent a notice: 10 minutes later, there will be a meeting in the "Plum Blossom Hall" on the 25th floor to draw lots.

Without further ado, Ling Xiu led his team to the 25th floor.

——Although the team still only has agents and assistants.

The "Plum Blossom Hall" is a small and medium-sized multi-functional hall, much smaller than the meeting hall where I auditioned last time.

Thinking about it, most of the people who came to audition today are young actors who are not well-known, and the number of staff they lead is not large, so there is no need to spend a lot of time to create such a big scene.

When Ling Xiu came, the multi-purpose hall was already filled with two-thirds of the people.

But when he glanced over, he didn't know anyone except Deng Minhao and Jiang Sheng whom he had seen on TV.

The decoration of "Plum Blossom Hall" is calm and atmospheric, with thick carpets on the floor, and the chairs are as comfortable as high-end cinemas.

——Even the air conditioner is neither hot nor cold, which makes people feel sincerely comfortable.

Shen Jianshu took Ling Xiu to sit by the window.

When you open the curtains, you can see the beautiful green landscape of the hotel.

"Sister, why don't these people chat with each other this time?" After sitting down, Ling Xiu was a little curious.

"This occasion is not suitable for socializing today." Shen Jianshu said in a low voice, "Besides, Jing Pengcheng and Wei Quan don't like this kind of thing."

As soon as she finished speaking, the door of the multifunctional hall was pushed open.

A bunch of people filed in.

Ling Xiu knew the person walking at the front, and it was Qian Yiming.

He was wearing the trendy black narrow sunglasses, his hair was carefully brushed, and he was wearing the latest shirt of a big brand.

"It really is a big star, and there are so many staff members."

Taotao said in a low voice.

After Qian Yiming took his seat, the door was pushed open again.

Only two people came in this time.

The one in front was a young man of medium build, fair and thin, with slightly curly hair.

He was fresh-faced, and in a loose-fitting shirt and jeans, he looked like a teenager just entering college.

However, the temperament has a sense of literary tranquility.

There is no doubt that this is the most popular contestant this time - Fang Junhe.

The middle-aged man following him should be his manager.

Ling Xiu thought it was interesting.

... There is actually someone who has fewer staff than him.

In a short period of time, all the actors who participated in the audition arrived, and the only thing waiting for this time was the director, producer, and producer who were the core characters.

In the multi-function hall, everyone sat scattered, and no one came to say hello, and the atmosphere seemed a little quiet.

Fortunately, there are crew members who are busy walking around, otherwise this scene would be like a pool of stagnant water.

Ling Xiu was bored playing with the hotel room card.

But in the next moment, his eyes froze and he stopped what he was doing.

"Sister, do you smell anything?" Ling Xiu asked Shen Jianshu beside him in a low voice.

Shen Jianshu was puzzled by the question.

She took a few strong sniffs.

"No. What do you smell?"

Ling Xiu smelled the fragrance.

But it's not pure fragrance.

Because there is a hint of fishy smell in the aftertone.

The smell is quite obvious, but Shen Jianshu didn't smell it?

That's kind of interesting.

"It's okay, I'll just ask." Ling Xiu touched his nose with a smile, "Maybe it's my sense of smell that's wrong."

"Are you too nervous?" Shen Jianshu looked concerned, and comforted him warmly, "It's okay, it's just an audition, take it easy."

"Okay, sister." Ling Xiu replied obediently.

At this moment, the director, producer and producer finally entered.

I haven't seen Director Wei Quan for several months. He is still dressed casually as before, holding a space cup and smiling.

If he hadn't watched the video of him scolding the crying actor, Ling Xiu would have thought that he was kind and kind like Maitreya Buddha.

Jing Pengcheng was a bit surprising.

Originally Ling Xiu thought he was a slovenly artist, but Director Jing sitting in front of the stage turned out to be a middle-aged man with well-dressed clothes, elegant temperament, thick hair, and good facial features.

It's not a joke to say that if you become an actor with this shape and figure, you will become a top-notch in the uncle circle.

Ling Xiu finally understood, why the last time he searched for the director and found that he not only has fans, but also Chaohua and fan groups.

Not long after, the meeting officially began, chaired by director Jing Pengcheng.

Ling Xiu brought back the thoughts of running away.

As soon as you concentrate, the fragrance in the air becomes more obvious.

Although this thing is of no use to him, it is still a low|three|abuse thing that cannot be put on the stage.

Ling Xiu frowned displeased.

It seems that the source of the fragrance must be found first.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he raised his head, Shen Jianshu touched his arm.

"Concentrate on listening to the director's speech, and don't get distracted." The manager frowned slightly and reminded in a low voice.

Ling Xiu had no choice but to look away and sit down obediently.

Director Jing on the stage briefly explained the audition process.

First, lots were drawn, and the fifteen people were divided into two groups, AB and AB.

Group A in the morning and Group B in the afternoon.

The order of appearances in auditions is determined by initials.

"The rules are simple and clear, and I believe everyone understands it." Director Jing said concisely, "We don't have so many rules and details, and we don't have inside information.

Only actors with good acting skills and the best fit for the role will be selected. "

This remark not only clarifies the attitude, but also rejects the possibility of going through the back door, killing two birds with one stone.

Ling Xiu likes this simple and direct style of handling things very much.

Obviously, most of the actors present also like this style.

There was applause at the scene.

Ling Xiu also applauded.

But as he clapped his hands, he realized something was wrong.

Most of the people in this venue are in poor spirits.

Deng Minhao's eyes were blurred, Fang Junhe covered his mouth and yawned, Qian Yiming rubbed his eyes vigorously, Jiang Sheng covered his heart, his face pale.

——Not to mention these actors, even Jing Pengcheng and Wei Quan, who were still in high spirits just now, looked a little tired.

Ling Xiu tapped the edge of the chair with his fingers.

...can't wait any longer.

Director Jing finished the rules and immediately began to draw lots.

The draw is also done in alphabetical order.

Shen Jianshu beside him propped his forehead, looking drowsy.

There were several people in front of Ling Xiu. Taking this opportunity, he began to observe the venue.

At first glance, the windows are bright and the chairs are clean, the air is fresh, and there are no problems.

Ling Xiu closed his eyes.

A few seconds later, he opened his eyes again.

A ray of light flashed across his eyes and disappeared in a flash.

Ling Xiu carefully searched every place in the venue, not even letting go of the corners.

When his gaze swept to the air outlet of the central air conditioner above his head, the frown between his brows gradually disappeared.

A smile quietly appeared on the corner of Ling Xiu's mouth.

He focused on the air outlet, stretched out his thumb and index finger, and made a pinching motion.

As the fingers were slowly exerted force, there was a faint scream in the huge multi-functional hall.

But except for Ling Xiu, no one seemed to hear it.

Ling Xiu finally put his two fingers together.

I only heard a violent scream floating in my ear, and everything returned to calm.

Shen Jianshu beside him raised his head as if waking up from a dream.

"God, why did I seem to be falling asleep just now?"

"It's okay." Ling Xiu asked, "Sister. Did you bring wet wipes? I want to use one."

Dirty hands must be cleaned.

"Have."

Shen Jianshu handed him a wet wipe, "Hurry up, it's time for you to draw lots."

"Well, I see, sister." Ling Xiu raised a bright smile.

……

Ling Xiu's luck is good but not particularly good.

He drew Group B.

Means time to rest and cram.

But several competitors also got into Group B, including Qian Yiming.

When the results of the lottery were announced, the reaction of the crowd was very exciting.

Some people were ecstatic, some were secretly glad, some secretly poked and wanted to watch the fun, and some were just dumbfounded.

But since he chose the lottery method, he had to accept the result.

So the meeting was over, and the actors in group B quickly dispersed and went back to their respective rooms to prepare for the audition in the afternoon.

When eating at noon, Shen Jianshu picked up a few mouthfuls of rice with chopsticks, and suddenly opened his mouth.

"it's wired."

The food delivered by the hotel was very delicious. Ling Xiu was feasting at the moment, when he heard the manager's doubtful voice, he raised his head.

"Sister, what's wrong?"

Shen Jianshu unconsciously picked the lunch box with one hand, and pressed his temple with the other hand.

"Why do I feel like my memory was blank for a while in the morning. This feeling is so bad, it makes me a little dizzy now, my heart is beating fast, and I have no appetite."

Ling Xiu was taken aback.

Are the side effects so big?

No wonder the temporary assistant Taotao was full before eating a few bites.

Seeing Taotao went out to make a phone call at this time, Ling Xiu put down the bowl and chopsticks, and said in a low voice: "Someone must be playing tricks at the venue in the morning. Sister, you know that I have learned Kung Fu from Master before, and I have some understanding of some advanced things."

He wasn't going to hide it from Shen Jianshu, since someone dared to do such a thing, he had to let his manager know and be more vigilant.

Shen Jianshu was so surprised that the chopsticks fell on the table.

"What do you mean?"

Ling Xiu thought about it and decided to explain it in a way that is easier for humans to understand.

"Sister, maybe you won't believe me when I tell you... I guess someone planted a Gu to confuse the mind at the venue."

Shen Jianshu gasped.

She's smart and quickly picks out the twists and turns.

"Xiao Ling, do you mean that someone wants to use this to influence the result of the audition?"

Ling Xiu nodded.

"Then why did I wake up again?" Shen Jianshu asked.

Ling Xiu joked, "With me as a lucky star, of course bad guys can't succeed."

"Do you know who cast the Gu?"

When the word "Gu" was said, Shen Jianshu felt that he was outrageous, why did he believe Ling Xiu's words so easily.

"Should know soon." Ling Xiu continued to eat, with a calm and indifferent face, "The Gu technique is broken, and those who use Gu to harm people will be backlashed."

Shen Jianshu's whole portrait was struck by lightning and completely petrified.

Does this kind of thing that does not conform to scientific basis really exist?

Even the popular invitation to "little devil" and "fox fairy" in the circle she thinks is fake.

Aren't Gu worms even more fictional?

But in the next moment, the scientific worldview she had formed since she was a child was severely damaged.

The door of the room was opened, and the temporary assistant Taotao entered in a panic.

"Someone has an accident, someone has an accident!"
