"I'm really sorry, Sister Xuan, I have to let you take the subway."

On the afternoon of the weekday, the extension line of Ningjiang Metro Line 2 was very empty, Xu Rui sat on a chair and said to Li Ruoxuan beside him.

"It's okay, the subway is also very convenient, and there are ......"

Li Ruoxuan smiled and reminded again.

"There's no need to call me Sister Xuan, I look like I'm very old, I've only graduated for a year, just call me Ruoxuan, that's what we call it in the editorial department."

"Okay."

Xu Rui didn't see too much, Li Ruoxuan has been almost like an employee of Phantom Electric since the beginning of animation production, she comes every three or five times, she is young and affinity, and she quickly mingles with other employees of the company, even if she is cold to outsiders, Li Ruoxuan can chat with her about a few words of animation.

"The recording studio is near Yulan Road, three subway stops."

Xu Rui glanced at the road map.

“...... Why is this happening, Sister Kaoru......"

At this time, at the other end of the same carriage, a girl standing at the door muttered the words, which made Xu Rui turn his head.

The girl looked similar to Xu Rui's age, with slightly curly long hair and a shawl, wearing a lace-edged white shirt, a dark red plaid skirt, thin black stockings and small leather shoes, the girl was holding a stack of A4 paper in her hand, and she seemed to be reading against the content on the paper.

"For the first time, I have someone I like, and for the first time, I have someone who can be friends for life, two happy things coincide together, and these two happiness bring more happiness, and what I get should be a happy time like a dream, but why is this happening......"

The girl whispered, her voice full of confusion, although she couldn't hear it clearly on the slightly noisy subway, but she could still feel the emotions of sadness and confusion in the words.

Her voice is very special, cold and a little immature, which is impressive.

"That's a line, right?"

Li Ruoxuan whispered in Xu Rui's ear, and the warm breath made Xu Rui subconsciously tilt his head slightly.

"It seems to be a line from "Soul Eater"."

To be precise, this is the line of the animation of "Soul Eater: Zero", from Xu Rui's hand, from the lines of the classic animation on the earth, he is very impressed.

But the question is, why does she have this line?

Xu Rui quickly figured out this problem, that is, this girl is one of the voice actors who are ready to participate in the audition.

Generally speaking, after the project is established, the sound director will send an invitation to the partner voice studio, and these studios will assign some suitable people to audition, and at this time, they will give a copy of the character and line materials for the voice actors to practice in advance.

These materials only have a basic introduction to the characters, and the lines are also a few sentences, and you won't see any plot from them.

In fact, those involved in the production of animation will sign a commercial confidentiality agreement, and there have been serious incidents in the past where the rookie original artist in charge of the original animation uploaded the storyboard to Weibo and ridiculed the plot leakage, so the industry has a very strict grasp of this.

The girl was very serious and focused, and she didn't notice Xu Rui's side at all.

The two didn't say much, the three-station subway arrived quickly, and the girl walked off the subway a little nervously, while Xu Rui and Li Ruoxuan followed.

Walking out of the subway station, the heat wave of midsummer in Ningjiang hit, and Li Ruoxuan naturally held up a parasol.

"I don't need to."

Xu Ruiwan declined the other party's invitation to walk under the umbrella together, and just walked in the dazzling sunshine.

The two soon came to a building with a sign that read "Media Studio".

This is one of the larger recording studios in Ningjiang, which not only undertakes animation dubbing, but also includes some private albums, and the post-production sound effects of movies are handled here.

Walking into the hall, Xu Rui found that there is more than one animation dubbing and audition here today, such as Rainbow Media's new work "The Boy Looking Up at the Sky and the Different World Reflected in the Pupils" in October, which is dubbed here today, and Mushroom Pictures' original work "Galaxy Assault Team" in January is also auditioning today.

Walking into the elevator and pressing the sixth floor, Xu Rui naturally gave up his position to Li Ruoxuan, so as not to have awkward contact in the crowded elevator.

In comparison, other animations are indeed more popular, a small wave of people got off the elevator in the mushroom film audition room on the third floor, and more people left in the recording studio of Rainbow Pictures on the fourth floor, and when they got to the sixth floor, there were only Xu Rui and Li Ruoxuan left.

They walked through the corridor and came to the recording studio, which was somewhat unexpected by Xu Rui, and there were already many people waiting here.

Today is the audition of the animated female characters, so all the girls who are waiting are girls, each of them is young and beautiful, which makes Xu Rui have the illusion of flowers for a moment.

"Ah, it's the director."

Someone recognized Xu Rui, who had appeared on TV, and immediately greeted him.

As soon as he made this sound, the other girls all greeted Xu Rui one after another, including the one he and Li Ruoxuan saw on the subway just now.

Xu Rui didn't know these girls, probably because of the production team, some big-name voice actors were not willing to waste time participating in this animation.

"Well, everyone's done a great job."

In a sense, the work of these girls is up to them, so Xu Rui didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only quickly walk through the corridor and knock on the door of the recording studio.

"Ah, Director Xu, we still have five minutes to start, you sit first."

The one who opened the door was the sound director of "Soul Eater: Zero", Tian Zihui, who had cooperated with the old fantasy animation several times in the past, and relied on Cheng Ke's connections to accept this cooperation.

Interestingly, there is a famous voice actor in the industry named Tian Zihui, and people can't help but wonder what it would be like if the two met in the recording studio.

"Hello, Sister Tian, this is Li Ruoxuan, the editor in charge of the original work."

After introducing the people around him, Xu Rui soon saw the producer Cheng Ke, who was chatting leisurely with others with a cup of hot tea in his hand.

"Brother Cheng, you were here."

"Yes, things went unexpectedly well, so I came over directly, ouch, Xiaoxuan is here too."

Cheng Ke glanced at Li Ruoxuan and Xu Rui meaningfully, and gave up the sofa for the two to sit on.

"Director Xu, we will let the voice actors audition one by one later, and all the auditions will be recorded for you to choose later, so you don't have to decide immediately on the spot."

Tian Zihui said, pointing to the equipment on the side.

Where they sat there were all kinds of recording equipment, and on the opposite side of a clear glass were several microphones, which were soundproofing rooms for real recordings.

"I see."

Xu Rui can be handed over a thick stack of materials during the process, these are the resumes of the voice actors who participated in today's audition for him to check against each other.

A few minutes later, the staff opened the door to the studio and spoke outside.

"The audition for "Soul Eater: Zero" has officially begun, and now we invite those who read the name to come and audition."
