The sweep is over
"Welcome, welcome!"
"Welcome~"
"welcome......"
Cheers were accompanied by the sound of applause, and Shen Xiu froze in place, not daring to move.
At this moment, Shen Xiu felt very regretful.
From the very beginning, he shouldn't have stood at the last position. He was the last one to enter the elevator and naturally stood at the front of the elevator.
The elevator door opened, and in order to make way for the people behind him, he naturally needed to be the first to exit the elevator.
The ribbons scattered and landed on the people who came out of the elevator, led by Shen Xiu.
The people in the marketing department were just doing what the director said, and the moment the elevator opened, they habitually sprayed fireworks and applauded.
They also didn't expect that the first person to come out would be Shen Xiu.
Caught off guard by the expressionless Shen Xiu, it was hard to undo what had been done, but Shen Xiu was the one with the most ribbons. Shen Xiu's hair and clothes were all covered with sequins.
Seeing this scene, everyone's welcoming voices and applause gradually diminished, and only awkward and stiff smiles remained on their faces.
Oh no, Shen Xiu looked at them with a chilling look, could he be angry?
A group of people stared at Shen Xiu in an awkward atmosphere.
Seeing a group of strangers smiling at them and greeting them, as the person standing in front, after recovering, Shen Xiu quickly said: "Thank you."
Next time he enters the elevator, he will definitely not stand at the back!
Although Shen Xiu's eyes were still cold, he at least spoke, and what he said was still the line "thank you".
The people from "Xiantu" were afraid that Shen Xiu would be angry at first, but when they heard Shen Xiu's familiar way of speaking, they knew that he was not angry.
After all, according to Shen Xiu's angry performance in "The Immortal Path", if Shen Xiu gets angry, he will mercilessly transform into the Great Demon King Xiu, a sharp-tongued person who makes him unhappy.
Some examples from the distant past include Lin Jiashi during the talent show period, and some from the recent past include Fang Chengxing who tried to slack off when filming of "The Immortal Journey" just started.
The people from "Xiantu" were busy laughing and followed Shen Xiu to greet the people from Kota's marketing department.
“Hahaha, thank you!”
"Thank you everyone~"
“Thank you for your hard work!”
The people of Kota also reacted and responded quickly.
"You're welcome."
"You're welcome......"
The two groups began to greet each other awkwardly but politely.
No one in the marketing department wanted to do this, but after Qin Mo left, the director of the marketing department insisted that they do so.
They say this is the "warmth of home" that Qin Mo needs.
But... apart from birthday surprises, who would be unexpectedly sprayed with ribbons when entering their own home?
It was so weird that they decided to find an opportunity to rant back on the minister’s birthday next time to ease their embarrassment and panic today.
While the two groups were greeting each other, Chen Xiu quietly retreated to the edge and stood silently behind the leading actors Fang Chengxing and Liang Cheng.
Successfully standing among relatively familiar people and being surrounded by relatively familiar people, Shen Xiu's troubled heart finally settled down.
If there hadn't been the elevator killing incident today, according to Shen Xiu's previous habits, he would definitely stand behind the group of people.
But today, Chen Xiu temporarily had a psychological trauma about standing at the back, and would rather choose the relatively safe middle, hiding himself and reducing his presence.
Shen Xiu stood in the middle, and the makeup artist who came with her helped Shen Xiu remove the ribbons and sequins from her hair and shoulders.
But some sequins and ribbons are too thin or get mixed into the hair. If you force them, it will mess up the previously created style.
The makeup artist didn’t finish and apologized, “Sorry, some of it can’t be removed.”
There was no mirror here, so Shen Xiu couldn't see how many tiny sequins were still on his hair. He only saw that the area below his shoulders on both sides had been almost done by the makeup artist. He said, "It's okay, this is good."
After finishing speaking, Shen Xiu said again: "Thank you."
"You're welcome. This is my job." Even though it's just work, the makeup artist couldn't help but feel happy when being thanked.
[When the people from the marketing department saw Boss Xiu coming out of the elevator, they couldn't stop themselves from spraying streamers on Boss Xiu. For a moment, their expressions seemed to be quite embarrassed and scared? 】
[Think about it from another perspective. When you are at work, as soon as the elevator door opens, you spill your cup of soy milk all over your boss's suit. Wouldn't that make you suffocate? 】
[Thanks for the invitation. I put myself in your shoes and felt so embarrassed that I couldn't breathe. I'm afraid I'll be fired tomorrow morning because I step into the company door with my left foot first. 】
[Brother Xiu’s moving route, I said violently, is definitely to avoid suspicion! Otherwise, how could Boss Xiu, who always likes to stand at the back and make plans, suddenly stand among everyone! 】
Looking at this scene, Li Nuo breathed a sigh of relief.
When the elevator door opened, he was at the elevator button, and before he could react, Shen Xiu had already walked out.
Fortunately, Shen Xiu was not angry.
Li Nuo stood aside, watching the two leading actors of Xiantu greet the department staff. After a few pleasantries, he spoke: "Everyone, please come this way..."
"good."
The people from "Xiantu" responded and followed Li Nuo with smiles on their faces.
"What you are seeing now is our..." Li Nuo followed the plan and walked in front while introducing it to everyone in "Xiantu".
Li Nuo finally understood why Qin Mo asked him to recite the department introduction submitted by the marketing department after "selecting" him as the guide.
When introducing, Li Nuo couldn't help looking at Shen Xiu in the middle, wanting to see if Shen Xiu was satisfied with his introduction.
But Shen Xiu remained expressionless and cold from beginning to end. Li Nuo was very unsure and didn't know whether Shen Xiu was satisfied with his introduction or not.
The marketing department occupies a quarter of the floor of this building, which is a very large area. Most of the newcomers continue to work at their posts, while the veterans such as team leaders go to greet the "Xiantu" group.
In the team, Li Nuo was walking in the front as the guide. The people from "Xiantu" were surrounded by the old people from the marketing department. When they were introduced to the positions they were responsible for, they were responsible for accompanying them for detailed introductions or showing their support.
Fang Chengxing: “…”
Liang Cheng: “…”
"Xiantu" staff: "......"
Marketing staff: “…”
If I remember correctly, they...are here to sweep the building...right?
But after listening to what Li Nuo and the people from the marketing department said, they had the impression that they were not here to sweep the building, but were sent by the company to conduct inspections.
This introduction sounds too much like a work report!
When Li Nuo introduced him, he glanced at Shen Xiu, which... is hard to comment on.
Shen Xiu: “?”
For some reason, he had the illusion that he was watching a PPT and listening to someone else’s work report.
As the leading actor of "Xian Tu", he is the main force in this promotional tour.
Although Liang Cheng and Fang Chengxing didn't understand, they tried their best to suppress their gossiping thoughts and didn't dare to look at Shen Xiu like Li Nuo did, forcing themselves to get into work mode.
The two sang the same tune, and while agreeing, they pretended not to know that this was a "work report" and actively promoted "Xiantu".
"It sounds so complicated. You guys are amazing."
"Wow, is the new product so magical? It's as magical as our "Xiantu". If you want to know what's so magical about "Xiantu", just tune in to the Fruit Channel at 8 o'clock every night and you'll find out~"
"As expected of Kota, I look forward to the new product! What? You are also looking forward to the subsequent development of "Xiantu"? Hahaha, then let's look forward to each other!"
"This feature is so cool, just like our "Xiantu", the future is bright haha..."
......
No matter what Li Nuo and the people in the marketing department said, Liang Cheng and Fang Chengxing always had something to talk about, and they could always talk about "Xian Journey". The purpose and effect of the publicity made the audience in front of the screen want to laugh.
Shen Xiu: “…”
How can things that are completely unrelated be connected together? So awesome!
Fortunately, no one asked him, otherwise he wouldn't know how to make it up.
It was his first time participating in a building-sweeping activity. Every time Chen Xiu was called by Liang Cheng and Fang Chengxing, he didn't know what to say except nodding in agreement. The range of their words was so wide that Chen Xiu was confused and in awe.
Throughout the whole process, Shen Xiu couldn't help but look at Liang Cheng and Fang Chengxing with admiration.
Li Nuo spoke cautiously, but Shen Xiu just didn't look at him, and instead cast his admiring eyes on Fang Chengxing and Liang Cheng.
Therefore, after the explanation, Li Nuo still didn't understand whether Shen Xiu was satisfied or not.
[Kota's products are indeed high-tech. I was confused when listening to them. Fortunately, I could understand what "Xiantu" was saying, but I don't know why, I still felt dazed. 】
[It's similar to the feeling of being in a trance where you're talking about city gate towers and I'm talking about hip tubes, and we can still chat together. The way Xiubao looks at them and the way we look at them are not completely unrelated, they are exactly the same, full of helplessness about the awkward conversation hahaha]
[Secretly speaking, Xiu Bao really seemed to be surrounded by people while he was inspecting his work...]
[Sister, be more confident. It's not "as if". I watched the previous live broadcast replay. There is a 99% chance that Xiubao used his own pupil pattern to unlock the door, not by swiping a card. The staff member who appeared in front of Xiubao, Kota, looked at Xiubao with cautious eyes, so it's just as you thought...]
[The scholar is bragging again. Tsk tsk, he even said that he has not created the image of a rich second-generation. Isn't he spreading rumors every day? He really loves to take advantage of others. It's ridiculous! 】
What dirty stuff came in? Tsk, I smell the sour smell of lemon essence~]
Qin Mo finished his work and hurried over.
Qin Mo, who rushed over, saw Shen Xiu's carefully groomed hair and the ribbons and sequins on his body, and his eyes fell on the empty gift bag next to him.
Qin Mo: “?”
Watching all this, Qin Mo froze in his tracks not far from the elevator. He raised his hand to cover his heart, and almost couldn't breathe.
At this moment, Qin Mo seemed to see the horrible scene of the year-end bonus that he was supposed to get slipping away from him.
After so many years in the workplace, he has never seen such a cruel scene!
Li Nuo, who couldn't figure out whether Shen Xiu was satisfied or dissatisfied with him, had the illusion of seeing a savior the moment he saw Qin Mo, and excitedly said, "Assistant Qin!"
When everyone heard Li Nuo's voice, they subconsciously looked in the direction where Li Nuo was looking.
The moment they saw Qin Mo, everyone from the leading actors to the staff of "The Journey to the Immortal" could not help but straighten their backs and look at him cautiously.
"Assistant Qin..."
"Mr. Qin..."
People from the marketing department and "Xiantu" all called out to Qin Mo.
"Yeah." Qin Mo nodded slightly to the people in the marketing department, looked at the people from "Xiantu" cautiously, and smiled: "Hello."
After saying that, Qin Mo's gaze fell on Shen Xiu.
Shen Xiu met Qin Mo's gaze, straightened his back, and said stiffly: "Hello."
He spoke before me, but didn't call my name, just said "hello". Was he reminding me not to call him "Mr. Shen"?
Qin Mo understood instantly and responded with a smile: "Hello!"
Seeing the sequins on Shen Xiu’s body made him feel guilty, and for the sake of his year-end bonus, he couldn’t help but whispered: “Sorry, your clothes…”
Shen Xiu didn't really understand why everyone cared about the sequins on him, so he said aloud, "It doesn't matter."
Qin Mo breathed a sigh of relief. When Chen Xiu said it was okay, it really didn’t matter. His year-end bonus was finally saved!
Everyone at the scene: “….”
Live broadcast room audience: [......]
At this moment, everyone had the same thought in their mind: the atmosphere was weird, there must be something fishy!
Qin Mo looked away after seeing Shen Xiu finish his words and had no intention of speaking again, then he smiled and said to everyone in "Xiantu".
"Everyone, do you want to go to the experience center first, or go to the Gemini Bridge first?"
As soon as Qin Mo finished speaking, Fang Chengxing raised his hand without hesitation and spoke out excitedly: "Twin Bridge!"
That was a place open only to Kota staff and Kota customers.
According to his friends who work in Kota, when you step on the bridge, a virtual space with data flowing around will appear under and around the bridge, just like in a science fiction movie.
The scene that each person encounters is different every time. Being in it is both sci-fi and dreamy, making people unable to stop.
Upon hearing this, the other members of "The Path to Immortality" unanimously agreed with Fang Chengxing's idea.
"Yes, let's go to the Gemini Bridge first!"
"I vote for Gemini too!"
Since everyone wanted to go, Shen Xiu didn’t care where to go, so he also said, “Well, let’s go to the Twin Star Bridge.”
[Even if I can’t go in real life, it’s just as fun to see everyone else going! 】
[Ahem, as someone who has walked on the Gemini Bridges, let me whisper, it's different. The scene you see when you are on it can only be seen by yourself. No one around you can see it. Except for Kota's own equipment, ordinary live broadcast equipment cannot capture and display it. So...what we will see later may just be an ordinary glass bridge that switches freely between white and brown. 】
[Catch a Kota! Wuwuwu, hand over your pupil pattern so I can sneak into Kota without killing you! 】
"Xian Tu" unanimously passed the Gemini Sky Bridge, Qin Mo nodded: "Okay, let's go."
Ten minutes later, we arrived at the Gemini Sky Bridge.
Standing at one end of the Twin Towers, everyone looked up and could see an office building on the other side that was almost exactly the same as the one here, as if it were a copy and paste.
The two office buildings are connected only by the high-altitude suspended bridge in the middle.
In the sunlight, the spacious bridge alternates between brown and white.
Shen Xiu, who had been walking cautiously in the middle of "The Immortal Path", saw the bridge ahead through Fang Chengxing and Liang Cheng in front of him, and his mind suddenly started buzzing.
So, so scary!
Wanting to leave later, Shen Xiu had the urge to turn around and run away.
When he was under the building, Shen Xiu knew it was a glass bridge, but he didn't know that he would be so scared when he actually stood on it, less than three steps away from it.
If time could go back, Shen Xiu would go back to the previous moment without hesitation and cover his own mouth when he said he agreed.
Fang Chengxing covered his heart, his face flushed with excitement: "Finally saw it!"
Although Fang Chengxing was very excited and wanted to pass, he still asked Qin Mo reservedly: "Can we leave now?"
Qin Mo smiled and nodded: "Of course, just walk around, and when you're done with the experience, we'll go to the virtual experience hall."
"Thank you!" Fang Chengxing said excitedly, looking at the people who were traveling with him on "Xian Tu" and the live camera that was still on: "Everyone, I'm going to start walking!"
After saying this, Fang Chengxing took a deep breath and walked onto the Gemini Sky Bridge...
Looking at Fang Chengxing who was so excited that he could hardly control himself, Shen Xiu: "......"
Human sorrows and joys are really incommunicable!
Liang Cheng saw Fang Chengxing step onto the bridge. He didn't know what Fang Chengxing saw on the bridge, but he looked happy and excited. Liang Cheng felt itchy and said, "I'll go on too!"
Help, help! Both of them are the leading actors and they have been on the show, do I have to be on the show too?
Chen Xiu looked at the glass bridge in front of him, suspended high in the air between two high-tech office buildings. He began to have difficulty breathing and did not dare to look down at all, for fear that he would see the "bottomless abyss" under the transparent glass. His legs would become weak before he even started walking.
Others in "Xiantu" couldn't help it and went up to experience it.
In less than a minute, Chen Xiu sadly discovered that the 'acquaintances' surrounding him were all on the bridge.
Chen Xiu: ...If he is the only one left and doesn’t leave, will everyone think he is weird?
Who come save him!
Fang Chengxing walked to the middle and didn’t see Shen Xiu, so he turned his head and looked at Shen Xiu: “Shen Xiu, aren’t you coming?”
Shen Xiu dug out the long-silent book of grudges in his mind.
Shen Xiu didn't say anything. Fang Chengxing thought Shen Xiu didn't hear him, so he spoke again: "Shen Xiu?"
Shen Xiu said stiffly: "You guys go, I'll wait for you here."
Just looking at it made him feel nervous and scared. If he walked over there, he would have a heart attack on the spot.
It's embarrassing, but he can't leave anyway. His feet and the space he's standing on are already locked together. He has swallowed the key, and no one can pull him away from this space!
Liang Cheng tugged at Fang Chengxing: "Use your rusty brain."
Fang Chengxing used his brain and quickly understood: "It is true!"
What he thought at the beginning was absolutely correct. Chen Xiu must have walked on the aerial bridge connecting the twin stars often in the past, so his expression has been indifferent since he saw this famous bridge.
Having walked this path countless times, is it necessary to seize the time and experience it like him?
"You're not broad-minded enough~" Liang Cheng said this with a smile and ignored Fang Chengxing.
After everyone from "Xian Tu" got on the bridge, the live camera was also taken away. Qin Mo couldn't help but look at Shen Xiu. While the live camera was far away from this end, the audience in the camera could only see the picture but couldn't hear their voices, so he took this opportunity to ask.
"Mr. Shen, you..."
"Cough cough cough..." Li Nuo glanced at the other colleagues next to him and coughed to remind Qin Mo.
When his colleagues stared at him in confusion, Li Nuo lied with his eyes open: "Sorry, my throat is a little dry."
Hearing the cough, Qin Mo understood instantly and changed his words: “Mr. Shen, do you think everything you saw today is okay?”
Shen Xiu: ...Is this a questionnaire?
After thinking it through, Shen Xiu nodded: "Very good."
Qin Mo clearly saw that Shen Xiu hesitated and was silent for a few seconds before he said yes, and it was obvious that he was reluctantly giving a "good review". Qin Mo frowned slightly and looked at Li Nuo.
Li Nuo blinked innocently, thinking that Qin Mo had very high requirements. Shen Xiu had already said that he was satisfied, so why was he still glaring at him?
The reluctant "good review" that Chen Xiu gave after hesitation made Qin Mo feel uneasy. He looked at Chen Xiu and hesitated to speak many times.
Qin Mo looked at Chen Xiu, and the others followed suit, secretly glancing at Chen Xiu.
Shen Xiu: “…”
Is there anything wrong with his answer? Why look at yourself so many times? It would be fine if Qin Mo watched it alone, but why did everyone else watch it too?
Help...why is this kind of thing contagious!
Can--
Shen Xiu's gaze fell on a place a few steps away, which was like hanging in the air to him.
Rather than facing the danger of having a heart attack at any time, he decided to just stay here and be stared at.
He won’t die if he’s seen, but if he goes forward, he might really die!
In order to avoid meeting everyone's gaze, Shen Xiu pretended that he didn't notice their gazes. He looked straight ahead and pretended to look at his friends from "Xiantu". He couldn't help but breathe lightly, for fear that if he breathed louder, everyone would look at him more frequently.
After Shen Xiu reluctantly said "very good", he pursed his lips and stared at the front with a cold and serious expression, showing no intention of communicating with him.
Qin Mo felt even more uneasy, vaguely feeling that his year-end bonus was in danger of slipping away from him again.
Qin Mo didn't say anything. The others didn't know Shen Xiu's identity, so they didn't dare to speak carelessly. Everyone in Kota subconsciously lightened their breathing.
When Shen Xiu was about to be suffocated by embarrassment, everyone from "The Path to Immortality" finally returned.
The returning group of people, led by Qin Mo, went to the virtual experience hall.
At 6:30 pm, the "Xiantu" group left Kota.
This time, the first person to be sent back by the crew was Chen Xiu. As soon as Chen Xiu left, Fang Chengxing couldn't help but ask, "Whether it was at the Gemini Bridge or in the virtual experience hall, Chen Xiu was so calm. Tell me, what exactly is Chen Xiu's identity in Kota?"
Liang Cheng thought of Qin Mo, Li Nuo, and the attitudes of the other people in Kota towards Shen Xiu, and said faintly: "Do you know what Qin Mo is nicknamed by the people in Kota?"
“You’ve acted in so many costume dramas. If you apply Qin Mo’s identity to the identities in the costume dramas, you can probably guess what Shen Xiu’s identity is.”
The staff member pricked up his ears to listen to the gossip, and seemed to remember something. He looked at the live camera with horror, coughed a few times, and whispered in a low voice: "Cough cough cough... The live broadcast is not over yet!"
good evening!
