China Entertainment: I am a big boss in the industry

Chapter 978 Superpowers

Could it be because of the family's secret weapon? But Zhang San had already been dealt with by him, so what threat was there?
"That's right. They want to use you to get something from you." The brother paused, his tone becoming serious, "Remember, don't trust anyone, including the people closest to you."

This last sentence was like a ray of ice, freezing Lin Gao's heart instantly. The closest person? Could it be his father? Impossible! How could his father harm him? But his brother's warning was so serious that he had to be vigilant.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Gao fell into deep thought. He repeatedly recalled his brother's words, trying to find clues from them. His mother was still alive, he had a brother, and an enemy hiding in the dark, and something they wanted from him. These pieces of information were scattered in his mind like fragments, making him feel confused and uneasy.

Suddenly, a knock on the door interrupted his thoughts.

"Come in." Lin Gao said in a deep voice.

The door opened and in walked his agent, Sister Wang, a shrewd and capable woman.

"Lin Gao, I have good news for you!" Sister Wang's face was full of smiles, "You are the male lead in the new movie of the internationally renowned director Ang Lee!"

Lin Gao was slightly stunned, then he reacted. Director Ang Lee's new movie, that's the dream opportunity for many actors! If he can act in it, his career will be taken to the next level.

"Really? Are you sure it's me?" Lin Gao still couldn't believe it.

"It's absolutely true! I've read the contract. No problem. I'm just waiting for you to sign it." Sister Wang said, handing a document to Lin Gao.

Lin Gao took the document and quickly glanced through it. The contract was indeed very generous, with a high salary and many other benefits. But he felt a little uneasy.

"Sister Wang, what is the subject of this movie?" Lin Gao asked.

"It's a science fiction action movie. It's said that the investment is huge and the special effects team is the top team in Hollywood." Sister Wang said excitedly, "This movie will definitely be a big hit!"

A sci-fi action movie? Lin Gao remembered his brother's warning and his heart was filled with alarm. Could this be a trap?
"Sister Wang, who is the investor of this movie?" Lin Gao asked again.

"It's a newly established company called 'Future Technology'." Sister Wang replied.

Future Technology? Lin Gao had never heard of this company. He took out his phone and searched for it, but there was no relevant information.

"This company is very mysterious, and there seems to be no background information." Lin Gao looked at Sister Wang with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.

Sister Wang shrugged. "In the entertainment industry, this kind of thing is very common. But don't worry, I've already done some research. Although this company is new, it's very strong and there will definitely be no problems."

Lin Gao didn't say anything, his heart still full of doubts. He always felt that there was something strange about this matter, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

"Lin Gao, why are you still hesitating? Such a good opportunity, if you miss it, it will be gone!" Sister Wang urged.

Lin Gao took a deep breath, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, picked up the pen, and signed his name on the contract.

Maybe he was thinking too much.

However, at the moment he signed his name, he suddenly felt dizzy and everything in front of him began to become blurry...

When he woke up again, he found himself in a strange room. The room was dark, with only a dim light illuminating the surrounding environment.

He struggled to sit up, but found himself tied to a chair.

"Are you awake?" A cold voice came from the darkness.

Lin Gao turned around and saw a tall man standing in front of him. The man had a hideous mask on his face, so his expression couldn't be seen clearly. "Who are you?" Lin Gao asked coldly, trying to keep himself calm.

The man laughed sinisterly. "It doesn't matter who I am. What's important is that you will soon know the secret hidden in you..."

"Who are you?" Lin Gao's voice echoed in the empty room, trembling a little, but still pretending to be calm.

The masked man did not answer, but just laughed eerily. His laughter was as shrill as a night owl and creepy.

This silence was more oppressive than any words and made Lin Gao's heart beat violently.

Suddenly, the lights in the room came on, and the dazzling light made Lin Gao unable to adapt for a moment.

He squinted his eyes and gradually saw the surrounding environment clearly.

This was a simple basement, damp and cold, with a musty smell in the air. In addition to him and the masked man, there was another person in the room - Hou Xingyu.

Seeing Hou Xingyu, Lin Gao became even more confused. Hou Xingyu was his competitor, a rising star who was also emerging in the entertainment industry.

Although there is competition between them, there is no deep hatred. Why is he here? Is all this a conspiracy by Hou Xingyu?
"Hou Xingyu, what's going on?" Lin Gao glared at Hou Xingyu, his tone full of questioning.

Hou Xingyu shrugged with an innocent look on his face, "I don't know either. I was kidnapped too."

"Who are you kidding!" Lin Gao didn't believe him at all. "Do you think I will believe you? You must have planned all this!"

Hou Xingyu spread his hands and said, "Lin Gao, I know you are prejudiced against me, but this time it really wasn't me who did it. I don't know why I'm here."

"Hmph, do you think I will believe your nonsense?" Lin Gao snorted coldly, his suspicion of Hou Xingyu did not diminish in the slightest.

The masked man looked at the two people arguing and sneered, "Stop arguing. You are all my prisoners now. What is there to argue about?"

Lin Gao and Hou Xingyu were both silent. They realized that arguing now was meaningless and the most urgent thing was to find a way to escape.

"What exactly do you want to do?" Lin Gao looked at the masked man and tried to stay calm.

The masked man walked up to Lin Gao and looked down at him, "What do I want to do? I want to know the secret hidden in you."

"Secret? What secret do I have?" Lin Gao played dumb.

The masked man sneered, "Don't pretend, I know you have superpowers, you are a mutant."

Lin Gao was shocked. He didn't expect that his secret would be discovered.

He pretended to be calm, "I don't know what you are talking about. I am just an ordinary person."

"Really?" The masked man suddenly reached out, grabbed Lin Gao's hair and lifted him up, "I'll give you one more chance, tell me your secret, otherwise..."

A dagger suddenly appeared in the masked man's hand, flashing coldly under the light.
