"I'm really curious. Just think of it as me wanting to be an idol."
"Well, there are generally two ways for idols to debut: one is to sign a contract with an agency, and the other is to participate in an audition."
"Which one did you choose before?"
"Although the agency has a lot of advantages, the contracts are also very strict. If you want to be more free, you can only participate in auditions."
"Well, then let's not consider the agency, what is the selection process like?"
"There is a lot of content in this area. To put it simply, you can choose a project that suits you based on your own strengths. For example, if you are good at singing, you can participate in the singing competition. If you are Miss Olicia, I recommend you to go..."
"What to choose?" White Wolf asked curiously.
Miss Kongxian glanced at Bailang, and her tone suddenly became a little awkward: "Movie star is great, but... Miss Olicia should not need to run for election. As long as the director's eyes are not damaged, he will definitely compete to choose you."
White Wolf understood the other party's implied meaning and couldn't help feeling that he had done something wrong, as if he had engaged in unfair competition.
She tried to calm down and then tried to refute: "But, doesn't the director want to test people's acting skills? What if he recruits a vase?"
"Well..."
Miss Kong Xian pinched her chin with her index finger and thumb, and successfully put herself into the director's perspective: "Well, it's like this, of course the vase is not good, but if... if the vase is too beautiful, then the other things can be put aside for now."
Volume 6: Chapter 48 The Lord Said
After hearing what Kong Xian said, Miss Bailang felt very ashamed, as if she had become the person she despised the most.
But she didn't intend to back down, and instead asked stubbornly: "What if he is really capable and not just a pretty face?"
"It will take a long time to prove yourself. From what I know, people in the film and television industry have a prejudice that those with good looks are just pretty faces."
“Some people aren’t, right?”
"You can say that, but I've also heard that it's hard for actors with outstanding looks to make good movies because the audience's attention will be diverted and they won't be able to focus on the main point."
"Why not just ask the makeup artist to make the actors look uglier?"
Miss Kongxian was suddenly speechless. She had never thought of this idea, but it sounded quite feasible.
"Well, there's nothing wrong with what you said, but it always feels a bit wasteful."
"I think movies always have to express something, and all the elements, including the actors, must serve the purpose. It's not a waste."
Kong Xian nodded thoughtfully: "Although I have never been a director, I think what you said makes sense. Some big-name stars rely on their own advantages to attract attention at inappropriate plot points, which looks very awkward. Has Miss Olicia studied this?"
"That's just a casual remark." Miss White Wolf scratched the red silk of the chair back with her nails. "So, you became an idol before because the financial situation of Langdon Abbey was particularly bad?"
Miss Kongxian's eyes unconsciously locked on Bailang's hand and replied:
"It was very bad. Not only did I become an idol, but other sisters were also looking for various ways to solve the problem. Later, the dean had no choice but to sell off some of the monastery's assets, and we were able to barely survive. Then we started looking for ways to make money everywhere."
"Last year, you found Rhodes Island, right? What was the result?"
"Don't mention it. I've hit a wall twice in Rhodes Island. There's no hope at all." Miss Kongxian held her cheeks with both hands and her expression became melancholy.
"twice?"
"Well, the time we met was my first time in Rhodes Island. I found out that Rhodes Island didn't plan to sell beer and our specialty bread, so the deal fell through. The second time, I changed my mind and hoped to be the agent for some of Rhodes Island's medical products."
"and then?"
"I was talking to Ms. Kal'tsit at the time. She didn't refuse and gave me a form to sign. I took a look and found that it was a list of Rhodes Island's public agents. There were a lot of names on it: Rhine Life, Dagu Group, Business Federation, Longmen Commercial Office... They were all top forces. They didn't ask me to sign, they asked me to withdraw voluntarily!"
"so?"
"Ms. Kal'tsit had a cold face at the time. I knew it clearly in my heart, so I didn't sign. You know, it was so annoying. When she saw that I didn't sign, she asked me why in a hypocritical manner, as if she really didn't understand. Phew, our Langdon Abbey is small, but we can't be bullied like this."
Miss Bailang was surprised at first, but she started to hold back her laughter when she heard the second half. As soon as Kongxian finished speaking, she pretended to be nonchalant and asked:
"Ms. Kongxian, tell me, is there a possibility that Kal'tsit really wants you to sign?"
"Let me sign?" Miss Kongxian frowned and thought, then shook her head repeatedly, "Impossible, absolutely impossible. Her expression at that time was terrifying. Miss Olicia must have never seen it."
"Scary expression, um, I've never seen one before."
"That's right. You might not be familiar with her, so you don't know." Miss Kong Xian let out a breath of anger and continued, "After those two times, I also discovered a secret of Rhodes Island."
"Oh?"
Miss Kongxian covered her mouth with her right hand and lowered her voice, "Most people think that Miss Amiya is in charge of Rhodes Island, but after I went there, I found that Ice Face Kal'tsit is the real leader. We have to discuss everything with her."
"Puff." Miss White Wolf quickly covered her mouth.
"Hey, what are you laughing at?"
Ms. Kal'tsit's reputation has been damaged. White Wolf was secretly happy, but said seriously on the surface: "I remembered something happy."
"Anyway, that's it. After that incident, I will never go to Rhodes Island to discuss cooperation again."
"So you kept working hard and finally seized a new opportunity?" Miss White Wolf asked with a smile.
"New opportunity?" Kong Xian didn't react for a moment.
"Ice Stone Technology, isn't that a new opportunity?"
"Oh, well, well... yes." Kong Xian blushed instantly, nodded awkwardly, and suddenly remembered that he was going through a crisis where he might be 'fired'.
But strangely, she found that she was no longer nervous. She was completely different from herself a few minutes ago. Now she felt more embarrassed.
"You were a little nervous just now, probably because you were worried that something might go wrong and affect the cooperation."
"Well, this is very important to the Langdon Monastery." Seeing that the other party had guessed it, Kong Xian nodded with a red face.
Miss White Wolf blinked her eyes and smiled mysteriously, "You just told me the secret of Rhodes Island. I also have a secret about Ice Stone Technology. Do you want to hear it?"
"If it's a secret..."
"I can tell you a secret."
"think."
Miss White Wolf approached the other party, also covered her mouth with her right hand, and whispered in a whispering manner: "The Lateran area is a relatively exclusive place. It is difficult for Ice Stone Technology to find a suitable agent, especially a high-quality local agent like the Abbey. So, from the beginning, you are very, very important. Even if I do nothing, I don't intend to let you run away."
Maybe she was not used to being looked at like that, or maybe there was some ambiguity in the language, Miss Kongxian's cheeks flushed slightly, and she nodded silently.
She was too obsessed with her own affairs and had completely forgotten her own advantages: under the influence of religious factors, many companies found it difficult to do business in the Lateran. Although the Langdon Abbey was on the verge of bankruptcy, it was once one of the most famous monasteries in the Lateran, and its advantages in management were considerable.
"Okay, now that you know the inside story, you can take this opportunity to propose some favorable conditions."
Miss White Wolf said happily. She was a little excited because she was about to start a real business negotiation.
"No need. I've seen our cooperation book. It's the one with A on the cover. Can I follow that?"
"Version A? No, no, you're talking about the draft agreement. Most of the clauses are biased in favor of Icestone Technology. That's not good."
“I’ve seen it, and I think it’s very good.”
"No, Miss Kongxian, it's really not good. The Langdon Monastery has a special status, and we can negotiate a lot more benefits."
"We don't want more. The Lord has said that greed is a sin against God, like all corrupt sins, when people give up eternal things for corruptible things..."
Miss White Wolf realized that it was impossible for her to convince the other party.
Volume 6: Chapter 49 Autumn
After the "business negotiation" with Miss Kongxian ended, Bailang began to focus on his work.
This time, Miss Kongxian was too relaxed to memorize the script and instead followed Bailang to help.
The two of them chatted while they were busy. They just happened to be the kind of people who could talk to each other.
White Wolf has always been interested in Lateran and its religion, so he asked questions and discussed with great interest throughout the whole process. Miss Kongxian summarized many "taboo" topics that are annoying to others when she preached, but these taboos did not exist for her.
This is her nature. She likes to think about things that interest her from all aspects to the extreme. Every question she asks seems intentional or unintentional, but in fact she is analyzing the religious phenomena in the Lateran region from multiple perspectives such as politics, history, economy, and environment. However, this attitude caused Miss Kongxian to misunderstand.
After all, the two had talked several times, and each time ended with profound theological questions. Combined with today's performance, Kong Xian couldn't help but suspect that Miss Olisia had the qualifications to become a saint.
Saints are extremely rare on this earth. Each of them possesses extraordinary wisdom and is also the person closest to the Holy Father. Therefore, the Holy Father preaches the gospel and spreads doctrine through their mouths. The Pope is also selected from among the saints.
Miss Olicia is obviously not from Lateran and has never even been to Lateran, but her understanding of the doctrine is so profound that it is unbelievable.
She simply couldn't imagine that the other party could come up with such a perfect phrase as "justification by faith" to summarize the current Lateran doctrine.
Not only that, it took decades of reform for the Lateran Church to find a foothold in terms of commerciality and purity of faith, but after learning about it, Miss Olivia quickly came up with a set of economic theology templates.
If the person in front of her was the bishop of her own monastery, she would think everything was normal, but this person was Miss Olicia, which made her think.
During the conversation, Miss Kongxian couldn't help but think to herself: If the Pope could personally guide and educate Miss Olicia, in time, she might become another saint.
We have to find a way to kidnap the girl...well, take her to Rutland.
Bai Lang certainly didn't know that Miss Kong Xian had already put a lot of drama into her mind. If she knew this, she would probably be so scared that she wouldn't dare to talk to her.
After the inspection work was completed, the two said goodbye to each other. Bai Lang went to discuss the guests attending the conference. When they returned to the Dagu Hotel, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon.
She pushed open the door and looked around. Seeing no one, she walked to the window, opened it and looked out. Unfortunately, she still didn't see the person she wanted to see.
Miss White Wolf felt a little lost, and thinking that she had nothing to do, she leaned against the window, rested her elbows on the windowsill, supported her chin, and looked out the window bored.
In autumn, most of the leaves outside have turned yellow. A cool breeze blew, and the leaves swayed, with a few falling from time to time. Her eyes were fixed on the falling yellow leaves, killing time in boredom.
The red sun was setting and the leaves were drifting. She thought that Miss Bai Jin was about to leave and that people were like lonely leaves drifting by. She couldn't help feeling sad.
"Hey, White Wolf, what are you looking at on the windowsill?"
Miss Platinum's voice suddenly came. Bailang turned his head and saw her standing in the room with a smile on her face.
She was too lazy to think about when the other person came behind her, and just shook her head: "Nothing, I'm just looking at the scenery."
Miss Bai Jin teased, "Are you really looking at the scenery? Aren't you looking for where I went?"
Bai Lang then remembered that her original intention of coming to the window was indeed to find Miss Bai Jin, but since the other party said so, she certainly could not admit it.
She shook her head: "I'm not looking for you. I just want to enjoy the scenery."
Miss Bai Jin pressed her chest and acted sad: "I'm so sad, do you really have no intention of looking for me?"
"A little bit, a very small bit."
"How small?"
"Probably a little smaller than a fingernail."
"I'm so sad, White Wolf. I'm going to cry."
"Go ahead and cry." Miss White Wolf said without turning her head.
Her eyes were still looking outside, a smile on her cheeks.
Miss Kuranta opened her eyes wide and said, "I really will cry."
"Then cry and let me hear it."
Miss Bai Jin was not happy and said dissatisfiedly, "Oh, that's too bad. You want to make me cry? No way."
"Do whatever you want, cry if you want, don't blame it on me."
"You actually said that?"
"Why, that's what I said."
"Then I want to hug you." Miss Bai Jin suddenly smiled cunningly, "You said I would do whatever I want."
Her movements were so quick that before the White Wolf could react, he felt a soft body pressed against his waist and hips.
Because White Wolf was half lying on the windowsill, with his body slightly tilted up, Miss Platinum felt weird coming up from behind, so he straightened his back.
Bai Jin noticed the other party's small movements, looked down, and then thought of something, her face secretly flushed. She crossed her hands and placed them on Miss White Wolf's abdomen, looking over her shoulder and looking out the window.
"It's already autumn again, White Wolf. We met in autumn."
"Well, autumn comes late in Longmen. By this time, the northern part of Ursus is already preparing for winter."
"Is the winter in Ursus very cold?"
"It's cold."
"You're going to Ursus after the press conference?"
"Yes."
"Then you have to be careful and remember to buy more thick clothes. Don't let yourself get frozen."
