Chapter 194: Unspoken Rules
As soon as she sat down at the table in the morning, Morningstar smelled the familiar smell again—her chicken soup with spices.
Su Yue glanced at Morning Star, and Morning Star consciously filled herself a big bowl and drank it in one go, and after drinking, she looked at Su Yue again, Su Yue smiled at her, and she filled herself another bowl.
Seeing that the two of them were frowning at dinner, Song Peiji and Zhang Xin were deeply stimulated, and the two served two plates of side dishes and avoided the small restaurant next door.
Hu Jiajia is very envious, she and Wang Hui have been in love for more than a year, but they have never been so honey-blended, and she can't tell why, the relationship between the two people always can't burn, just like boiling water on the plateau, after it burns to seventy or eighty degrees, it can't be boiled alive or dead.
Maybe this is fate, when my cousin was with Susan, it didn't seem to be like now, the two of them were so sweet that they had a tacit understanding.
Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, after breakfast, Hu Jiajia invited Morning Star to cook with her, she always felt that the moon cakes bought outside were not delicious, and wanted to make some by herself, her cooking skills were mediocre, she was not sure to do it well, but now that Morning Star is here, she looks very skillful, so she wants to try it together.
Morning Star and Hu Jiajia were kneading dough and making stuffing in the kitchen, and the chef who was temporarily invited by the family had already bought all the things that should be bought.
Zhang Xin's home is in Tonglu County, a suburb of Hangzhou, Su Yue gave him two days off to go home to see, Zhang Xin left after breakfast, Song Peiji and Su Yue talked about things in the study, Su Yue told him about the grudge between the bald head and Fenghua, and felt that behind Fenghua's suppression of the bald head, there might be another hidden secret, Song Peiji heard the origin of the bald head, and immediately guessed the original story.
One of the most important things in Song Peiji's daily work is to understand the capital trends in the cultural circle, and his people have found some very strange phenomena after two years of investigation.
First of all, behind most domestic film and television production companies, there are Hong Kong and Taiwan bigwigs and foreign capital involved, that is to say, the vigorous development of the domestic film and television production industry in recent years has benefited from the large amount of external capital.
There is only one condition attached to these foreign capitals entering these film and television production companies: they must be popular with the people they designate, and these people can be actors from Hong Kong and Taiwan, or actors from mainland China.
This condition seems to be nothing on the surface, but after the mainland film and television companies did it, a very strange phenomenon has gradually formed in the mainland film and television industry.
In the first two years, the Huaxia film and television circle was composed of four circles: "North Circle", "South Circle", "Sichuan Circle" and "Beijing Circle", and most film and television companies consciously stood in line and formed alliances in order to obtain greater benefits.
In the past two years, because of the convergence of investors behind it, the northern circle has gradually merged with the southern circle, and the Sichuan circle and the Beijing circle have become brothers.
But recently, they have found that their interests have been damaged, their authority has been constantly challenged, and what has damaged and challenged them is a small number of film and television production companies or solo actors who do not enter the circle, such as Wang Zhaoxing's own sunny production company, bald and wild actors without a brokerage company.
Those film and television production companies that have entered the circle only look at the face of the capital when selecting actors, and they don't care about the acting skills of the actors at all, while directors like Wang Zhaoxing pay more attention to acting skills when choosing actors, and the salary is directly proportional to the acting skills.
Like Wang Zhaoxing filming this TV series, although he gave the heroine to Huang Mengmeng due to lack of funds, Huang Mengmeng's salary is only 1.5 million for 40 episodes, which is about the same as the salary of the supporting roles in the crew, because in Wang Zhaoxing's eyes, Huang Mengmeng's acting skills are only worth this price.
This pricing method completely broke the unspoken rules of film and television production companies in the circle, where the salaries of the leading actors were raised very high in order to ask investors for more production funds, and the production costs rose year after year.
And the film and television company makes money, relying on the method of cutting the radish at both ends, while they inflate the market price, increase the production cost, and get high production funds from investors, while privately reaching a consensus with those leading actors who have no acting skills, and taking a cut of their inflated salaries, they easily make a lot of money.
Now that some people want to break this situation and correct the market that they have led crookedly, how can they allow it?
What makes them even more panicked is that the audience will not be stupid all the time, they will wake up sooner or later, and they will think that the plays played by actors with acting skills are good-looking, there are more directors like Wang Zhaoxing, how can the scenes they shoot sell in the future?
So when Wang Zhaoxing was halfway through filming, investor Qiu Yi suddenly couldn't come up with the money, and the bald head, as Wang Zhaoxing's accomplice, had long been the target of their key attack.
As soon as Song Peiji explained this, Su Yue understood everything, and it is no wonder that a young actor like Morning Star who has no resources can still sign the drama contract, and there is an alternative existence like Wang Zhaoxing in the film and television industry.
He raised his eyebrows and looked at Song Peiji, and asked him what countermeasures he had after investigating this?
Song Peiji was very proud: "The production funds allocated to me above have increased, and I have already made a report, if Qiu Yi really can't come up with the money, my production company will invest an additional 30 million yuan to let Wang Zhaoxing finish filming this TV series." ”
Su Yue originally wanted Feitian Film and Television to come up with this money in private, but now that Song Peiji is here to support him, he won't have much to do, and at present, their Su family has been highly concerned by foreign forces, and their every move must be extra cautious.
After finishing the business, Su Yue thanked Song Peiji seriously again - for the ointment he gave to Morning Star, Song Peiji pursed his lips and blamed Su Yue for being heavy and light on friends: "How many things I have done for you, you haven't taken it to heart, but this insignificant ointment, you have repeatedly thanked me, you have really become a wife slave?"
Su Yue didn't say anything, took out a bottle of rum from the wine cabinet, asked a few dishes to come to the kitchen, and he drank two glasses with Song Peiji.
After two glasses of wine, Su Yue opened the conversation: "Peiji, there are a lot of things, I can't say what I can do, because Jiajia is also my sister, I try my best to create opportunities for you, but whether you can seize the opportunity or not depends on yourself." ”
Song Peiji rolled his eyes, looked out the window, and whispered, "You mean, I have a chance?"
"Wang Hui has a low eye, I don't worry about handing over Jiajia to her, the problems between them will break out soon, maybe the breakup will be a matter of the near future, so, you have to behave in front of Jiajia now, in the love field, this is called planting a seed first, do you understand?"
Song Peiji scratched his head and said, "I'm humble in studying, it's always okay, right?"
