soul collector

The next morning, Tang Xiu received a call from Li Ziping, the agent who met yesterday. The other party said that the materials were reviewed and he was asked to go to the company to sign the contract as soon as possible and go through the process.

July was the time when W Group signed a large number of new contracts. There were many people waiting in the personnel office. It was already afternoon when Tang Xiu finished the formalities. Li Ziping just sent him a message: "Come to the meeting room on the [-]th floor to find the contract. I."

--"it is good."

The newlyweds who had finished recording the messages stood in the corridor in groups of three or five to get to know each other. Tang Xiu walked through the crowd to the elevator alone, and reached out his hand to press the up button.The elevator was still on the first floor and was just coming up.He lowered his head to look at his prostitution contract, and ten seconds later, with a "ding--", the elevator door opened.

There was a man standing in the elevator, tall and handsome, with sharp brows and starry eyes, he was talking on the phone with a half-smile.Tang Xiu felt that this person seemed familiar at first, but he couldn't remember where he met him.

"Well, I think this ending is good. It's top-heavy, and it's considered to be the best among all conscience scripts this year."

"Yeah, to abuse the audience, let's see who can let the box office fall below the cost price first."

Tang Xiu couldn't help but twitched his lips, raised his hand to support the elevator door, and asked the other party if it was convenient for someone to ride with him. The man was stunned when he saw him, paused for two seconds before nodding, and continued to what he just said .

"In short, this is not enough. If there is no satisfactory modification, casting will be very difficult."

The man explained a few more words in a low voice before hanging up the phone and looking at Tang Xiu from behind.The shirt made of cotton and linen is incompatible with the luxurious and fashionable style of this office building, but it only suits this person's temperament.He glanced at the floor board, the fourteenth floor, the newcomer's floor.

The elevator arrived soon, and the man said before Tang Xiu got off the elevator, "Thank you."

The voice was steady and pleasant, but the person's first words after meeting had revealed his picky and vicious tongue. Tang Xiu turned around and smiled, "You're being polite."

The elevator door closed slowly, cutting off the sight of the person inside who had no time to retract.

Li Ziping was sitting in the first meeting room on the right side of the elevator. Tang Xiu smiled at him through the glass wall and pushed the door open.

"I've signed the contract and brought it here, thank you."

Li Ziping took the contract and waved his hand, "Just call me Ziping. In fact, I am also a newcomer with very limited resources. I am a little curious. Your appearance and temperament are outstanding, and you are recommended by a big boss. Why did you choose me?" To be a broker?"

Tang Xiu shook his head when he heard the words, "I said yesterday that I entered this business because I am interested in people, not for the sake of being popular."

"You don't want to be popular?" Li Ziping's eyes widened.

Tang Xiu shook his head again, "It's not that I don't want to be popular. I can accept being popular or not, because that's not what I care about the most."

Hearing this, Li Ziping murmured in his heart, he thought he was just taking a wild way to answer questions during the interview yesterday, but he still said that today, he couldn't really be here for the show.

She looks so good-looking, but only enters the circle to watch movies?It's over, it's over, the first artist who came to W Group to take over has no ambitions, and his career is in jeopardy.

"Ziping?" Tang Xiu softly called out to the manager who suddenly lost his mind, with a hint of inquiry in his black eyes, "What's wrong?"

"Oh, it's okay, it's okay." Li Ziping suddenly came back to his senses, and took out a stack of planning proposals from the folder beside him and handed them over, "These are the projects I just got from the film and television planning department, and they are all to be filmed in the second half of the year. You go through it briefly, choose some simple roles and fill in the application form to go through the company's internal screening process. This year's books are very good, although I don't expect you to make a movie as soon as you debut, but try to get off to a good start."

Tang Xiu hummed, and took the stack of plans to look through them one by one.Youth inspirational campus dramas accounted for half of these planning cases, which are probably the mainstream in recent years.Tang Xiu flipped through the pages, and suddenly his fingers swept across a thin piece of paper among a pile of bound planning cases. He took out the paper casually and looked at it. There were three large characters in bold on it—"Zhan Hu Tai"

"Fox Slaying Platform?"

Li Ziping snorted, "It's Director Jiang's plan to shoot the movie, but I heard that Director Jiang is still grinding with the screenwriter, trying to figure out the plot scene by scene."

When Tang Xiu heard this, the person he met in the elevator suddenly appeared in his mind.No wonder he felt familiar, that person had appeared on TV before, his name was Jiang Qiao, the top domestic director, young and promising, all his works were well-known.As early as a few years ago, some people bad-mouthed him that sooner or later his talent would be exhausted, but his works became more and more calm and atmospheric.

Tang Xiu moved his gaze down and saw the signature at the end of the page.

Main investor and director: Jiang Qiao

"He invested himself?"

Li Ziping nodded, "That's right, "Zhanhutai" is a collaboration between Director Jiang and us. He is the lead caster, and we follow up with part of the cast. The advantage is that the characters are chosen from among our artists. It's just that the progress of the project is said to be stalemate. Stayed late at night in the temporary office arranged for him by the company. With such a great reputation, he still has to do everything by himself, no wonder he is an industry leader."

"I see." Tang Xiu nodded, and folded the footer of that piece of paper.

……

Li Ziping took Tang Xiu to visit the company, and turned to the restaurant on the sixth floor after a random turn.It's not time to eat, and there is no one in the restaurant.Tang Xiu briefly looked around and was about to go out, but saw the elevator door opened not far away, and two men came out one after the other.

The appearance and temperament of these two people seem to be somewhat similar, and they both have cold faces.Seeing Li Ziping, one of them stretched out his hand lazily as a greeting, and the other called out, "Brother Ziping."

"Hey, why are you all free to come to the company?"

The one who stretched out his hand squinted at the people around him, and sneered, "They all came to see Director Jiang. We just ran into each other, so we chatted."

The other pursed his lips and didn't answer.

The person who said hello first glanced at Tang Xiu, "Who is this person?"

Li Ziping quickly introduced: "This is Tang Xiu, a new artist."

"That's it. I'm Song Mian, and the dumb guy next to me is called Lu Kangjing. Do you know us?"

Tang Xiu laughed, actually he didn't know him.

Lu Kangjing glared at Song Mian, and said impatiently, "What are you talking about? If it's just chatting, I have other things to do."

Song Mian snorted, "Let's go busy people, find a place where no one is around and have a good chat."

The two slowly wandered into the tea bar at the back of the restaurant. Li Ziping pulled Tang Xiu, "They are both popular young students, and the company has mainly praised them for the past two years. Didn't you just ask about "Zhan the Fox"? Is it "Taiwan"? It is said that one of the two will be the male lead of "Zhanhutai".

"Is that so?"

"Did you feel the shadow of swords and swords between them?" Li Ziping squeezed his eyes.

Tang Xiu smiled, "I didn't feel the light of the sword, but I felt that Lu Kangjing was annoying Song Mian."

As if to confirm what Tang Xiu said, Song Mian in the distance happened to be urging Lu Kangjing who was behind him to hurry up. Lu Kangjing walked slowly. Although he didn't argue with him, the one who rolled his eyes couldn't be farther away. see.

Tang Xiu laughed again, "It's quite interesting."

After receiving the company's credit card and phone card, and making a schedule for the upcoming training courses, after a busy day, it was already evening when I returned home.Tang Xiu cooked himself a bowl of quick-frozen dumplings, and while eating, he used his mobile phone to look up the two artists he met today.

Song Mian and Lu Kangjing made their debut at the same time, and their famous characters are all high-cold academic male gods. After that, similar works of similar types were broadcast simultaneously in almost every stage. The two seem to be stuck together, becoming each other's heart The road of serious troubles is getting farther and farther.

Tang Xiu followed their Weibo accounts, and they both had 2000 million followers, so it was hard to tell them apart.After a rough look today, Song Mian was ruffian and Lu Kangjing was a little more introverted.

Of course, it was also possible that she simply didn't want to talk to Song Mian.

After dinner, Tang Xiu drank in the living room and watched performance textbooks. Before he knew it, the clock on the wall had pointed to eleven o'clock in the evening, so he took a bath and planned to rest.However, when he stepped into the bedroom wrapped in a bathrobe with a slightly drunken relaxation, before the light was turned on, a cluster of surprises suddenly flashed in the depths of those black eyes.Tang Xiu walked quickly to the bed, the soul-collecting banner hanging on the wall shook slightly, and returned to tranquility in an instant.

It has been sleeping for thousands of years, and has not made a sound for a long time.

Tang Xiu's whole body seemed to be filled with vitality suddenly, and his black eyes were full of spirits.He carefully took off the soul-collecting flag and looked it over carefully.This collection of soul banners follows him, and he is also a picky master. If the collected souls appear again, there will be no reaction. Only when potential new souls appear around him, he will be contaminated with that person's aura, and he will Touch the soul banner to give a hint.

It's just that the fluctuation of the soul-collecting banner this time is too subtle, and he shouldn't have had too much contact with that person.

Tang Xiu sighed slightly, both excited and helpless.He met too many people today, he rubbed his sore temples with some headaches, and hung up the soul-collecting banner again.Too lazy to turn on the light, I went directly to the window to draw the curtains.

At this moment, a window on the same floor of the W Group suddenly lit up again. Across the road, it was hard to see who was inside, but only a faint figure could be discerned, from far to near Go to the window and sit down.

W Group has long been pitch black, with hundreds of windows, only one is bright.

Tang Xiu seemed to have somewhat guessed who the person in that office was, a thought flashed through his mind, but was denied in an instant.

Since the last ray of uncollected soul is rare in ten thousand years, it must have a strong soul.The apartment is not far from the company, and Jiangqiao is close at hand. If it was Jiangqiao, the soul-collecting flag would not only fluctuate a little that is hard to detect.

As for Li Ziping, as his manager, he already had contact with him yesterday, and even spent an afternoon together today, so he would not be his target.

Tang Xiu suddenly thought of Song Mian and Lu Kangjing whom he had met in the company restaurant in the afternoon. These two people had a slight relationship with him, but they didn't have a deep connection. Now it seems that they should be the most likely target candidates.But it is not known whether it is them or not. Jihunban is cunning and sensitive, and the target may be other people related to them. It is better to check layer by layer through innumerable connections.

Thinking of this, Tang Xiu couldn't help but sigh, drew the curtains and lay down on the bed, closing his eyes and falling asleep.

There was silence in the empty apartment.The person on the bed in the bedroom was already sound asleep, and at one o'clock in the morning, the light in the window of the opposite office building was also turned off.Almost at the same time, Tang Xiu's mobile phone on the bedside table silently turned on.

A mass email from the company landed in the mailbox.Director Jiang Qiao's annual drama "Fox Killing Stage" is about to start casting for all contracted artists of the company.
