Next.
Guan Feng continued to ask questions.
These issues involve Wang Sanshi, Li Ping, Wu Xian, Chen Rong, and others.
This is largely an opinion of some people in the production crew.
Guan Feng's questions may seem casual, but each one actually has a deeper underlying logic.
For example, asking about the relationship between Wu Xian and Chen Rong might seem like an inquiry, but it's actually a test to see how deep Li Ge's feelings for both of them are.
Once a question like this is fabricated, you have to keep fabricating it in the next one.
While asking questions and listening, Guan Feng carefully observed the other party's expressions and actions. After a while, he had a pretty good idea of what was going on.
He asked, "Li Ge, I wonder why your sister-in-law isn't here?"
"sister in law?"
Li Ge was taken aback, and subconsciously asked, "How did you know?"
Guan Feng laughed and said, "Have you forgotten who we are? Police officers! Don't you know whether you're married or single?"
Li Ge breathed a sigh of relief and laughed, "I forgot about that! Actually, I didn't ask her to come. We have a very good relationship, but a woman like her, seeing me like this, she made a big deal out of nothing, so it was better if she didn't come."
Guan Feng said, "Li Ge is very considerate of his sister-in-law."
Li Ge said, "Since the two of us are together, it must be fate, and supporting each other is our duty."
Guan Feng thought of Li Ge's image in film and television dramas, as well as his reputation among the people, and he was definitely a "national husband".
He said, "That does align with how people perceive you."
Li Ge shook his head and said, "What kind of perception is that? It's all just a persona created by the company."
Guan Feng joked, "Being able to have a persona created for you at least means you meet the criteria."
Li Ge waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about this."
Guan Feng changed the subject and asked, "Li Ge, to be honest, I'm quite curious. I asked some other people in the crew, and they all said that this 'Nirvana in Fire' is actually a remake of the previous work, and it's suspected of being a poor sequel. With your status, you must have read the script beforehand, right?"
Li Ge nodded somewhat embarrassedly and said, "Yes, I've read the script."
Guan Feng asked, "Then what is the reason for taking on this role? Everyone knows Wang Sanshi. He makes several bad movies a year, exhausts the audience's enthusiasm, and then makes a good film or television work every two or three years."
"From casting to script, this production is clearly designed to promote some young, popular actors. With your status, you shouldn't have taken it, right?"
Upon hearing this, Li Ge's eyes flickered for a moment, then he sighed and said, "Well, it was Director Wang who discovered me for my first fantasy drama. He has been a great benefactor to me. In addition, the investors of this drama are film and television companies that have been cooperating with us for many years, so it would be impolite to refuse them."
Guan Feng's face showed a timely look of realization, and he said, "I seem to have heard that you signed a contract with Qinren Film and Television Company before you even graduated from university?"
Li Ge nodded and said, "That's right! If it weren't for these friendships, how could I have taken on this film? To be honest, it would have been a blow to my reputation and even my acting career."
Guan Feng said, "Then you are very loyal and sentimental."
Li Ge said, "If someone gives me a peach, I don't expect a spring in return, but I should at least repay them with a plum."
Guan Feng asked, "So, what is your salary for this drama?"
Li Ge asked nervously, "Does this need to be investigated?"
Guan Feng reassured him, "Don't worry, it has nothing to do with the salary cap. We're just making a routine inquiry to see if there are any cases of excessively high salaries that might be causing envy among some people."
Li Ge pondered for a moment and asked, "Then can you keep this a secret?"
Guan Feng nodded in confirmation: "You can rest assured about that. We are criminal police officers, and we only focus on cases. We have no interest in other gossip or secrets, and we will not publicize them in a big way. Our confidentiality regulations do not allow us to do so."
Li Ge said, "I believe in you. My salary for this TV series is 1.2 million yuan per episode."
Guan Feng asked, "I asked Wang Sanshi, is this TV series 46 episodes?"
Li Ge said, "That's right! So the salary is probably around 50 million."
Guan Feng couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.
50 million?
How many lifetimes of work would that be enough for an average person?
No wonder Li Ge was so cautious.
Liu Keming behind him couldn't help but rub his teeth.
His already wrinkled face now looked not just serious, but somewhat frightening.
He recalled how Guan Feng had "extorted" money from Li Yifeng's film crew.
Now it seems he even has this idea.
Zhao Yang, on the other hand, was stunned on the spot.
Having never experienced the impact of working with the "Flower Thousand Tears" production team, upon hearing the figure of 50 million, he couldn't help but ask, "Is this money paid in a lump sum?"
Li Ge shook his head and said, "That's definitely not the case. Isn't there a salary cap now? We agreed that 20 million would be the film fee, and the remaining 30 million would be paid in the form of performance bonuses, for a total of 50 million."
Guan Feng said, "No wonder there's been such a strong reaction from the fishing community. If this gets out, people will definitely want to curse."
