333: Chapter 333 The Talent Scout's Selfish Motives
The person walked straight up to Lin Xiao and said excitedly, "Lin Xiao, what a coincidence! I called you several times earlier, but you didn't pick up. I thought you had already left, but I didn't expect to catch up with you!"
Lin Xiao looked at the middle-aged man in front of him with suspicion.
He was about forty years old.
He looked very ordinary, and his attire was also very ordinary.
Only his pair of eyes revealed the shrewdness exclusive to businessmen.
Most importantly, Lin Xiao did not remember knowing him.
He remembered that there was indeed a number that kept calling him earlier, but he had never liked answering calls from strangers, so he hung up on them all.
As if seeing through Lin Xiao's confusion, the middle-aged man introduced himself, "My name is Chu Hang, I am a talent scout for Hu Yu Live Streaming!"
Before Lin Xiao could speak, Zhang Xiaofu exclaimed from the side, "Ah, I know you! It is said that many of the big streamers on your platform were discovered by you! Hey, I thought you looked familiar just now..."
Lin Xiao cast a glance at Zhang Xiaofu, then turned his head to look at Chu Hang, "Do you have business with me?"
"Lin Xiao, I know you are busy with ten thousand things and don't have much time for small talk, so I will get straight to the point."
Chu Hang had a gentle smile on his face, "I would like to invite you to be a streamer on our platform and sign you at the highest price."
Lin Xiao was surprised.
He originally thought that if Chu Hang was looking for him, it would at most be to ask him to show his face in a few big streamers' Live Stream Channels to bring them some popularity.
He did not expect that he wanted him to be a streamer?
"Lin Xiao, ever since the incident where you fished up the submarine went viral, many of your previous deeds have been dug up, like discovering corpses, discovering tombs, and many netizens even jokingly call you 'the Zhang Qiling with the shortest fingers'... I feel you should take advantage of this wave of popularity to develop yourself."
Chu Hang's attitude was very sincere, "Of course, I also hope that if you want to develop, you can come to our platform."
Lin Xiao approved of Chu Hang's way of speaking.
There were no twists and turns; he put the benefits directly on the table.
However, he also had his own concerns.
"Are there any requirements for streaming on your platform? For example, streaming time, and things like the length of the stream."
Lin Xiao asked.
"No! To be precise, there are none for you."
Chu Hang curled his lips and teased, "Who doesn't know that you, the Young Master of the Lin Family, dislike being constrained the most."
Lin Xiao chuckled, "It seems you have done your homework."
"What about the money? How much is your so-called highest standard?"
Zhang Xiaofu leaned over and asked excitedly.
Chu Hang thought for a while and said, "Previously, the platform's intention was to have you sign a long-term contract like other streamers, with a fixed streaming duration and a fixed signing fee, but I think that is unfair to you, or rather, you probably wouldn't agree."
"So?"
Lin Xiao suddenly felt that this Chu Hang was quite interesting.
His consideration of matters was also quite comprehensive.
Chu Hang raised his head, "I think it is more appropriate to calculate it by session for you, one million per session, with a requirement of over two hours."
"O-one million... five hundred thousand an hour..."
Zhang Xiaofu was almost shocked to the point of dropping his jaw.
Since following Lin Xiao, he felt his view on money was about to collapse.
It was one thing that Lin Xiao's family was rich.
Why did this money seem to have eyes, rushing eagerly into Lin Xiao's arms!
Was money really this easy to earn these days?
Chu Hang chuckled, "This income is not much for some top-tier sales streamers, but you have almost absolute freedom, which they cannot compare to, right?"
Listening to Chu Hang's description, Lin Xiao could hardly find a reason to refuse.
Being able to get one million just by streaming casually for two hours was quite a temptation.
"Okay, I agree."
Lin Xiao agreed.
Chu Hang was very happy and reached out his hand, "Then let's wish for a happy cooperation in advance?"
"Happy cooperation."
Lin Xiao also reached out his hand.
It really is easier to deal with smart people!
The assistant accompanying Chu Hang took out the contract. Lin Xiao took a brief look and signed his name on it.
After discussion, they decided to start streaming in the evening.
To celebrate the successful signing, Chu Hang invited Lin Xiao and the others to dinner.
"This meal is on me personally, I hope you will do me the honor."
Chu Hang's attitude remained humble.
Lin Xiao thought that he had nothing to do anyway, so he might as well go.
Soon, the few of them were sitting in a high-end restaurant near the school.
Chu Hang was not stingy at all; he opened two bottles of expensive wine.
"You invited us to dinner, it shouldn't just be for celebration, right?"
Lin Xiao took a small sip of wine and asked indifferently.
"Lin Xiao, you really are as smart as the rumors say."
Chu Hang smiled and nodded, "I do have some ulterior motives."
Zhang Xiaofu and Lin Baixuan were both somewhat traumatized by today's spy incident.
Hearing Chu Hang's words, they both looked over vigilantly.
Afraid that this guy was also plotting something.
Chu Hang was startled and waved his hands repeatedly, "Don't misunderstand, I just heard that Lin Xiao can do Fortune Telling, and I want to consult about some things."
"Oh, so that's it."
Zhang Xiaofu slowly let out a sigh of relief and bragged, "Our Brother Lin's Fortune Telling skills are top-notch. If you want to calculate something, you can say it first."
Although Zhang Xiaofu said so, Chu Hang still looked at Lin Xiao and asked politely, "Is that okay?"
"Go ahead and say it."
Lin Xiao was also a little curious.
"It's like this, I have received three packages in the last two months..."
Chu Hang's expression became serious.
According to his description, these three packages were all very strange.
The first package was a clump of messy long hair.
At the time, when he opened the package box, he was startled.
Later, he found out it was just hair and thought it was someone's prank.
He didn't take it to heart.
But a few days later, he received the second package.
This time, it was a drop of blood.
This drop of blood was not in any small bottle, but stuck to a piece of toilet paper, looking both terrifying and disgusting.
He ran to the courier station to see who sent it, but they said it involved the sender's privacy.
Unless he called the police, they couldn't show it to him casually.
He thought this kind of thing hadn't reached the point of calling the police, and worried about being accused of wasting police resources, so he had to let it go for now.
It wasn't until a few days ago that he received the third package.
"Cough, this third package is even more exaggerated..."
Speaking of this, Chu Hang hesitated to speak.
At this time, the food had already been served. Seeing everyone eating with relish, he hesitated whether to say it or not.
Zhang Xiaofu urged, "What was the third time? Tell us!"
Lin Xiao and Lin Baixuan also looked at Chu Hang curiously.
Chu Hang took a deep breath and said slowly, "This third package... was a pile of shit... it was that kind of dark brown, somewhat hardened, heart-shaped, shit."
