Chapter 183 Liu Yifei

To be honest, if Lin Feng were to choose "Lu Xueqi" in "Zhu Xian" himself, excluding all other factors, the most suitable candidate for this role would undoubtedly be Liu Yifei.

To some extent, she is the most suitable candidate for this role, Lu Xueqi herself.

Because of "Lu Xueqi's" cold temperament and character as the most beautiful woman, she is clearly an enhanced version of "Sister Fairy" and "Little Dragon Girl".

It really has to be Liu Yifei!

Originally, Lin Feng didn't want to get involved in this mess. After all, he had put a lot of effort into Yang Zi's casting last time, but in the end, he didn't get any benefits.
It's just that the casting time for "Zhu Xian" is too long this time, and it has even affected Lin Feng's normal filming.

After all, he and the heroine still have a lot of rival scenes to play, and if the heroine cannot be decided, it will inevitably affect the subsequent filming.

And seeing that the casting for "Zhu Xian" had not been finalized, Lin Feng took the initiative to call Liu Yifei.

"If Zhu Xian invites you to be the heroine 'Lu Xueqi' now, would you still agree?"

"If it was just the plot of Zhu Xian that invited me to act, I might have to consider it; but if it was you who invited me to act, I would not have to consider it and would have agreed directly."

Unexpectedly, Liu Yifei gave him a difficult problem. This time, Lin Feng did not hesitate and said directly:
"Actually, I wanted to invite you to play the leading female role. Right now, there are too many things going on with Zhu Xian, and I really can't think of a suitable role other than you."

"I don't care much about "Zhu Xian", no matter whether it is good or bad, I said, I like acting with you,
In fact, I have been waiting for your call. If you don’t call me again, I will take the initiative to call you.”

"It seems that I am a little late in calling you. The main reason is that I didn't want to get involved in this mess before, but now I have no choice, so I invited you."

"It's not too late, but I still have more than a month to finish other scenes. Even if I agree to act in "Zhu Xian", I will have to wait at least another month before I can join the crew."

"That should be no problem. We can focus on filming our scenes in the early stages, and your scenes will be filmed in the last two months."

Lin Feng agreed to this on the spot. In fact, Lin Feng really wanted to act with Liu Yifei and felt that she was very suitable for the role of "Lu Xueqi".
But he still had a concern, that is, once Liu Yifei came, then Zhao Liying and Liu Yifei would be together.

Lin Feng has been filming for so many years, and except for "Nirvana in Fire", he has acted with his woman in almost every one of them.
It can also be said that every female star who played the leading role with Lin Feng ended up being with him.

But it's just one person, not two people. Except for Lin Feng's most famous "Gu Jian Qi Tan", there were Yang Mi and Di Lieba at the beginning, but their relationship was not confirmed at that time.

What's more, women like Lin Feng, Zhao Liying, Yang Mi, and Liu Yifei are all first-tier actresses. Even those who are slightly inferior, such as Reba and Nazha, are also quasi-first-tier actresses who are not short of heroines.
It is rare for two first-line actresses to act together, and Lin Feng does not want to act with two women he has established relationships with at the same time.
This is not enjoyable, it is easy to get into trouble, so Lin Feng also tries his best to avoid these things from happening.
This is also the reason why Lin Feng didn't want Liu Yifei to take over "Zhu Xian" at the beginning.

With Zhao Liying already here, if Liu Yifei comes again, it would be hard not to see anything between the two of them in their daily interactions.

However, Liu Yifei entered more than a month later this time, which was a very suitable opportunity for Lin Feng.
The first two months were spent focusing on filming Zhao Liying's scenes, which also happened to be the first season of "Zhu Xian".

The next two months were spent focusing on filming Liu Yifei's scenes, which also happened to be the scenes for the second season of "Zhu Xian". The two scenes were separated and did not interfere with each other. Of course, there were definitely scenes that were filmed during this period, and Zhao Liying and Liu Yifei also had many scenes with each other.

But the total amount of these scenes is not that much, just a few days, and Lin Feng just needs to be honest for a few days.

So Lin Feng hung up the phone with Liu Yifei and took the initiative to recommend Liu Yifei to Jiang Lei. As for the pay, it was the same as Zhao Liying's, 100 million per episode.

It's just that Zhao Liying only had 60 episodes out of the 36 episodes in the two seasons of "Zhu Xian", and she was basically "lying dead" in the last few episodes, and her salary was 3600 million;

Liu Yifei had more roles, only 48 episodes in total, which means 4800 million yuan. Her pay alone is higher than Zhao Liying's.

As for Li Xin, who had been arguing with Huanrui from the beginning, she could only say sorry in the end, "I'm sorry, our heroine candidate has been decided."

Li Xin was unhappy now. She liked the role of "Lu Xueqi" very much and was quite satisfied with Huanrui's pay.

The increase in pay was mainly the idea of ​​the agent, but she didn't expect it to go wrong in the end. Of course, she was not happy about it and asked directly:

"I said 50 per episode, which was already very high, but you insisted on raising the price, asking for 100 million per episode. As a result, you see now, you get nothing in the end."

Sometimes the pay of actors also depends on the person. Liu Yifei may not think it is too much to be paid 100 million per episode, but Huanrui feels it is a loss to pay Li Xin more than 50 per episode.

"When I said I wanted to raise the salary, you didn't object. Now you blame me again. Besides, I just asked for 100 million per episode.
I didn't say that they really want that much in the end, and Huanrui can bargain. I don't want that much either.
And I think since Huanrui has agreed to 50 per episode, adding 10 or 20 is no problem,
I just didn't expect that Lin Feng would ruin things in the end. If he didn't show up, we would still have to talk to Huanrui.

It seems like he was the one who invited Liu Yifei, and coupled with Yang Zi's last time, does Lin Feng have something against us again? "

"I don't think so. I played the second female lead in his movie Descendants of the Sun. We don't have any conflicts!"

When Li Xin said this, she was not sure whether Lin Feng really had something against her.
Especially the last time when he chose Yang Zi, she asked one more question and he got angry. Li Xin didn't know why Lin Feng looked down on her.

In fact, Li Xin was overthinking this. Lin Feng never had any opinion about her, and he didn't even care about her at all.
It was just a normal relationship, and the reason why he was mean to her last time was because she questioned him first.

As for the casting this time, it was her own business. Who told her not to decide quickly? In the end, she forced Lin Feng to become famous. She was completely fooled by herself.

After Lin Feng settled the matter with Liu Yifei, the specific contract details were handled by Huanrui. Isn't this what Lin Feng was worried about?
However, Lin Feng believed that since he was the one who took the initiative to invite the heroine, the remuneration that Huanrui would offer would definitely not be low.

But Lin Feng had more important things to do, which was to take care of Zhao Liying before Liu Yifei joined the crew to avoid her noticing anything.
