“Hello.” Ge Guangzhen shook hands with Tan Jinsheng and looked over at Tan Jingi. He raised his brows and asked, “This must be Director Tan Jingi?”
Tan Jingi smiled faintly. “Hello, Director Ge. I’m here to accompany my younger brother to take a look.”
Ge Guangzhen then looked at Tan Mo next to Tan Jingi. He guessed her identity when he saw the resemblance to Tan Jinsheng and Tan Jingi.
“You should be Screenwriter Tan, right?” Ge Guangzhen asked with a smile.
Tan Mo nodded with a smile.
Chen Xinghan might very well be showing them Ge Guangzhen’s attitude.
However, they also could not rule out the possibility that Chen Xinghan was playing tricks behind Ge Guangzhen’s back.
Therefore, Tan Jingi and Tan Mo did not come off as overly friendly in these initial introductions.
So even if Ge Guangzhen was not aware of Chen Xinghan’s behavior, their attitude wouldn’t be considered rude either.
However, if Ge Guangzhen knew about Chen Xinghan’s behavior and consented to it, Tan Mo and Tan Jingi’s attitude was very suitable for him.
“It’s rare to see such outstanding people like you and your sister,” Ge Guangzhen said with a smile.
Although it was rare, it wasn’t unheard of.
Ge Guangzhen was just saying polite words on the surface.
Moreover, the Tan family was rich and desperately threw their money to support the siblings.
As long as they weren’t really stupid and hopeless, they ought to produce some sort of result.
“Please, take a seat,” Ge Guangzhen said.
The three of them sat opposite Ge Guangzhen while Chen Xinghan sat next to him.
“Teacher Tan, Assistant Director Chen should have informed you about the situation yesterday, right?” Ge Guangzhen said to Tan Jinsheng.
Tan Jinsheng replied modestly, “It’s unbefitting to address me as a Teacher, I’m still a newbie.”
‘When Ge Guangzhen heard that, he thought: “Well, hopefully, Tan Jinsheng sincerely meant what he said.”
It was good to acknowledge that he was still a newbie and don’t think too highly of himself.
“Of course not,” Ge Guangzhen said with a smile. “Teacher Tan, although you’re still young and new, you’re already composing your own lyrics and music. With such talent, you’re worthy of being called a teacher.”
After a pause, Ge Guangzhen said, “Let’s not talk about it anymore. Shall we discuss your participation in the program?”
“Sure.” Tan Jinsheng nodded and replied, “Yesterday, assistant director Chen told me that the program team intends to invite me to participate in the second episode for the challenge competition. As for the specifics, we will be talking about it in person today.”
Ge Guangzhen nodded. It was indeed inconvenient to talk about some things over the phone.
“Did assistant director Chen share with you about this season’s tournament format?” Ge Guangzhen asked again.
“Yes, he did.” Tan Jinsheng said and continued to repeat what he was informed. “Did I leave anything out?”
“No, that is exactly how the competition would be,” Ge Guangzhen said. “The program team wants you to take part in one episode of the show.”
“Take part in one episode?” Tan Jinsheng lowered his eyes slightly. He recalled the analysis everyone had last night. “Director Ge, you mean… I will only be joining for one episode?”
Ge Guangzhen thought that Tan Jinsheng was quite smart. He understood what Ge Guangzhen meant from just one sentence.

Talking to smart people saved him a lot of trouble.
“Indeed,” Ge Guangzhen said with a smile.
“But… since it’s a challenge competition and the audience will be voting…” Tan Jinsheng pretended to be confused and asked, “How can it be confirmed that I would be eliminated after participating in just one episode?”
Ge Guangzhen raised his eyelids.
He had just said that Tan Jinsheng was a smart person a moment ago.
How could a smart person not figure out how the elimination works for participating in only one episode?
He was just asking the obvious.
Tan Jinsheng showed that he was not truly smart by asking the obvious.
Why did he insist on asking so thoroughly?
Ge Guangzhen smiled and said, “The three of you… are not recording anything, right?”
Ge Guangzhen can’t be blamed for being cautious. He had to be careful.
“Of course not.” Tan Jinsheng laughed and took out his phone from his pocket. He showed it to them, the screen showed that he wasn’t recording anything.
He also flipped out his pockets and proved that he did not have recording devices in them.
The three of them didn’t bring any bags, Tan Jingi and Tan Mo also took out their phones.
“Director Ge, it’s a bit insulting for us to prove our innocence to you like this. You’re guarding us as if we’re thieves,” Tan Jingi said coldly as he took out his pockets. “Do you need us to take off our shoes as well?”
Tan Mo was wearing a loose sweater over her white t-shirt and black shorts, and a pair of black suede knee-high boots.
There were only very tight and thin pockets on the shorts, so nothing could be hidden in them.
In this season, the common dressing choice was either a thin wool coat or a windbreaker with a shirt.
Or like Tan Mo, forgo the jacket and just wear a shirt under the sweater to keep warm.
Ge Guangzhen’s face darkened, and then he said with a faint smile, “I’m really sorry. I can’t afford to be careless. There are too many incidences like this. It won’t be good if we encounter a conflict in the future and quarrel, and you post the recording on the internet.”
Tan Jingi scoffed disdainfully and didn’t bother to try to hide it at all.
Tan Mo ignored Ge Guangzhen’s slightly darkened face and said, “Director Ge, are you able to share with us now? How can you be so sure that my second brother will only participate in one episode?”
“If it’s a formal audience vote, and no foul play is involved, the results would be based on the audience’s preferences. What if my second brother advances in that case? Of course, he’s just a newcomer. Perhaps the chances of him advancing aren’t that high, but it’s not to the extent that he would be
immediately eliminated after the first round, as Director Ge claimed just now,” Tan Mo asked with a teasing look in her eyes.
Ge Guangzhen naturally wouldn’t tell them all the insider information about the program, so he said, “We’ve all signed a contract with the guests. The number of episodes they would be participating in would be written clearly in black and white on the contract. We can’t break the contract, can we?”
“Isn’t that my second brother’s question?” Tan Mo raised her eyebrows. “The program hasn’t been recorded yet, but we’ve already discussed how many episodes each guest would be participating in. In other words, what we’ve discussed would be… when they would be eliminated?”
It was obvious that Ge Guangzhen wasn’t going to be speaking plainly because he doesn’t want them to have something on him.
Tan Mo wasn’t going to allow Ge Guangzhen to play dumb now.
Ge Guangzhen smiled and said, “When the time comes, if he advances, we can just sign a new contract.”
Tan Mo once again seized the loophole, “Oh, is that so? But what if we are eliminated from the program before the duration of the contract is over? Wouldn’t the program team still be considered to have breached the contract? Moreover, when the artists sign the contract, they have confirmed how many
episodes they will participate in. So they will free up this period and no longer arrange other jobs. However, they would still be signing contracts for other jobs during this period.”
“Thanks to Big Brother, I am not a complete layman to the industry. Due to my work, I have gotten to know a few artists. I know that the reason they block off the schedule is to make it more convenient to arrange the working hours. The schedule is already very packed. How could they wait for the
tentative results of these couple of episodes they would participate in before confirming whether they will continue to participate in the show?” Tan Mo’s lips twitched mockingly..
