Chapter 20: Cold Treatment?(2/4)
The first thing that was made public was the contract of the absolute starring Liu Yifei, mainly the work content.
The actor's contract generally includes whether it covers the preparation period, filming period, post-production period, and publicity period of the film and television work, and if there is no clear agreement, the actor has the right to refuse the post-production reshoot, re-recording, and publicity work in the publicity stage.
Generally, the contract of the starring actor must include these, so according to the production stage of the film and television work, the work content of the actor is clearly agreed.
During the preparation period, the actor should cooperate with the fitting and audition, taking makeup photos, etc.;
During the filming period, obey the arrangements of the director and producer, and shoot with due diligence;
In the post-production period, the actors should cooperate with the re-shooting and re-recording;
During the publicity period, the actor should cooperate with the producer's publicity plan and participate in online and offline promotional activities...
The campaign will be clearly listed here, and the number of times the actor will participate, as well as the agreement after the number of times.
is very detailed, even including the post-production period, publicity and distribution period, whether the actor has additional honorarium, and who bears the transportation expenses, accommodation expenses, and lost work expenses for their round-trip expenses, all of which are specified in the contract.
Therefore, "The Ferryman", Tony Leung's salary is 45 million, it is not fake!
- You've been shooting for ten months!
If it is really calculated on a monthly basis, Tony Leung has already kindly given a discounted price...
Han Geng's salary is 1.8 million, ranking second only to Liu Yifei, and 1 million more than Huang Bo's 800,000...
The next thing is what the crew can't accept: assistants, drivers and even family members with the crew also ask the crew to provide five-star accommodation!
This is called playing a big name!
The actors work hard, and it is understandable that the treatment requirements are high, why do assistants and drivers also have this kind of treatment?
The director, producer, and cinematographer live in only standard rooms.
Not only that, but there are also a bunch of requirements for later publicity, the most eye-catching of which is the lost time fee, 800,000 a day!
Then, if you deliberately take over a movie during the publicity period, and the crew invites you to promote it, during the 20-day publicity period, do you have to compensate 16 million?
Then you say, with so many harsh conditions, why do you still invite him?
Because he's popular, and this is the last movie they worked on...
Mengxi's official Weibo explains:
"Since the establishment of Mengxi Company and Tangren Film and Television, there have been countless actors who have cooperated, and they have never had conflicts with any actors, no matter what the actors are, they have never been special, not to mention living in five-star and complaining that they can't keep dogs, and even the treatment of assistants is more than that of the director, which is really too deceitful, we resolutely resist this kind of big-name actors!"
"In addition, we suggest that Mr. Han Geng change to a professional brokerage team, don't be unpredictable!"
Well, the showdown is over, it's about boycotting!
This matter, if Han Geng's team comes out to explain it as soon as possible, it will not be a big deal at all...
But they just want it to get bigger!
Han Geng also posted a Weibo in the United States yesterday!
The entire Dream Creek company was disgusted!
And then what...
A bunch of film and television company CEOs, producers, and directors came forward and wrote a collection of stories about artists playing big names on Weibo!
Wang Hailin wrote: "The VN actors I worked with before also played big names, and there was a bath, and I had to use a certain brand of mineral water..."
Wang Changtian came to join in the fun: "We filmed a TV series before, the actor is Zhang Ruixi from South Korea, she came to China to shoot "Gengzi Fengyun", did not cooperate with the interview, and left the group for 33 days without authorization..."
Liu Rong, producer of "Confucius": "I think the biggest name is Fa Ge, even the traffic jam on the road counts as money!"
Then a bunch of TV station staff broke the news: "At the premiere of "Suo Qingqiu", An Yixuan's team wanted to live in a five-star hotel, and asked her to tell her the name of the hotel, and she first checked whether it was a five-star hotel on the Internet. I brought 4 assistants and asked to stay in a suite for 1700 yuan a night. When I arrived at the scene, An Yixuan was still in the car and didn't get out of the car, and she was more than an hour late until we reported to her. ”
"Tang Xiao unexpectedly became popular because he participated in "Super Girl" in 2006! After becoming famous, he began to pose and play big names! He scolded the doorman as a "watchdog", and kicked people's thighs, and was later slapped by the armed police..."
"The weirdest artists I've ever seen, paper towels and mineral water are only from premium brands, and even the sweetness of yogurt has to be specified. ”
Shen Mengxi also joined in: "If you want to say that the most famous big name should be the German actor Klauskinski, what kind of character is Kinsky? When he was acting in a stage play, because he was dissatisfied with the audience, he threw a candlestick directly into the audience and almost burned down the theater. On the set, because he suspected the staff of being noisy, he took out a gun and put it indiscriminately, and as a result, he injured a group performer. Is this a big name? It's a psychopathy!"
In the middle of the great German director Herzog and Kinski's cooperation in "Damnation", Kinski picked on his son and quit, he didn't do it jokingly, he really quit, and half of the actor stopped acting in a film. Isn't it nonsense for you to talk to a person like Kinsky about contracts, the spirit of contracts, and the law? So Herzog came to Kinsky and said very seriously, "I have a gun, and if you dare to go, I will kill myself, but I will kill you before I kill myself." "Kinski yelled to call the police, and Herzog told him that the nearest police station was three to five hundred kilometers away from the set, and in the end he lost to the crazy one..."
"The most important thing in a play is the sincere cooperation of the director, screenwriter, and actors, we do not welcome big-name actors, and the circle does not welcome them!"
......
The coffin is closed!
It is to oppress people with power, and it is to stand on the moral high ground!
Playing public opinion, you must stand on the side of justice...
Otherwise, it's not good to exert force!
So, overnight, not even overnight, from the very beginning of "Mengxi Blocks Han Geng" to "Han Geng Plays a Big Name"...
Shen Mengxi is a shareholder of Weibo, and the marketing and publicity expenses of Mengxi's propaganda department on several major portal platforms are as high as nearly nine figures every year!
How can an artist shake it?
Han Geng also apologized on Weibo: I'm very sorry for not coming out to respond as soon as possible, I've been reflecting on it in the past few days, thank you for your criticism and encouragement to me, I sincerely accept it, I should and am willing to bear all the faults, and will continue to review.
As a public figure, I should have set a good example, but I brought negativity and distress to everyone, really, really, really sorry!
He must apologize, because this incident, Xtep's endorsement is ruined...
Not only that, but it also affects the evaluation of his business value by other brands.
But this incident definitely affected the box office...
"Twenty Years Old Again" was 31 million on a single day on the 24th, 42 million on the 25th, 38 million at the box office on the 26th, and 111 million on the first weekend...
On the 27th and 28th, it was quite stable, with more than 18 million in a single day...
On the 29th and 30th, the single-day box office did not reach 15 million, but it still steadily suppressed "If You Are Honest Do Not Disturb 2"...
