Chapter 375: Sky-high salary

When Fang Xudong and the team were secretly preparing for the "Supercar" program, Chen Ziang was not idle, and began to invite seven regular guests to travel with Li Qiuting.

When Chen Ziang and Li Qiuting discussed who to look for first, they did not look for whoever was closest first, but first found the captain and the only regular female guest.

There are two candidates for captain, both of whom are actors who have been famous for several years.

One of them is more familiar to Li Qiuting, but the other party is now busy filming and is in the film and television city.

The other Li Qiuting is not very familiar with and has never cooperated, but with her connections in the film and television industry, it is not difficult to find each other.

, an actor who Li Qiuting is not familiar with, is in his hometown in the Northeast, and he has not been acting recently.

Chen Ziang and Li Qiuting's first stop was to fly to Ice City.

Known as Huining Mansion in ancient times, Bingcheng has a long history, is the birthplace of the Jin and Qing dynasties, and is also a city that has never had a city wall. As early as 22,000 years ago, in the Upper Paleolithic period, there was already human activity here. About 5,000 years ago, the Ice City area entered the Neolithic Age. About 3,000 years ago, in the late Yin Shang period, Bingcheng entered the Bronze Age, and belonged to the distribution area of the Baijinbao culture, the earliest ancient civilization in the Longjiang area.

The captain candidate that Chen Ziang and Li Qiuting want to meet is named Jiang Yilang.

He is young, humorous and funny at the same time, he does not lack domineering and aura, the media and friends in the circle say that he is a very wise person, and he has talents in all aspects.

The day before meeting Jiang Yilang, Chen Ziang had already asked his assistant to send him the content of the program.

Before Jiang Yilang and his agent could reply, Chen Ziang and Li Qiuting came.

The place where everyone met was outside, in a teahouse.

Chen Ziang and Li Qiuting originally arrived in the morning, but the two sides only met in the evening.

Because Jiang Yilang said that his agent was not in Ice City, he could only fly over in the afternoon.

As soon as Jiang Ichiro's agent arrived, the two sides met.

"Qiu Ting, long time no see. Jiang Yilang first greeted Li Qiuting, both of whom are celebrities in the film and television industry.

"Yes, is Ichiro so resting that he is about to get moldy?" Li Qiuting said with a smile.

These two people, in terms of popularity in the film and television industry, Li Qiuting is even better, and has won the actress twice.

Jiang Yilang barely won the actor once.

After the two of them had almost exchanged pleasantries, Chen Ziang spoke up: "Brother Jiang is in a good state of mind now, shouldn't you reappear in the rivers and lakes and let everyone see your majesty?"

Jiang Yilang smiled, everyone likes to hear good things.

This Chen Ziang is not bad.

Jiang Yilang actually didn't know Chen Ziang, and he hadn't even watched the so popular "Masked Singer".

However, his agent did know, otherwise he would not have flown over today to talk about this announcement.

But when it came time to talk, it was as expected.

Jiang Yilang's agent Lu Weiting doesn't care about the ratings of "Supercar", only looks at the appearance fee.

"Ichiro's current salary is worse than Qiu Ting's, but fifteen million is still available. Lu Weiting smiled.

Li Qiuting on the side is very calm, the agents are like this, asking for a sky-high price, it doesn't matter if you are a movie or a TV series, or a variety show.

"I'm not a movie, it's a show that provides exposure and popularity for film and television actors. Chen Ziang explained: "With such a salary, film and television actors have no other opportunities and channels to maintain popularity and exposure except through movies." ”

"Ichiro doesn't have an important role schedule for a big movie this year, but there are still ordinary role schedules, and it would be a big loss if you pushed it off because of the recording of your show. Lu Weiting said.

Chen Ziang had to continue: "This show is expected to have ten to twelve episodes, each episode of recording is as short as two days or as long as three days, adding up to about a month of recording time. Brother Jiang is going to act in a TV series now, 200,000 yuan per episode. The price that our program team gave Brother Jiang three million is not low. It is already the top price in the variety show market. ”

In the current variety show market, the appearance fee is not as cheating and deformed as the film and television industry, which is relatively normal.

Artists earn popularity in variety shows, and by the way, they get some appearance fees, and everyone is very happy.

"That's why variety shows can't develop, and there is no foreign popularity, you should know the reason. "Lu Weiting is a little bit disdainful of the variety show market.

If it weren't for Jiang Yilang's lack of schedules this year, she wouldn't want to come over to talk about this announcement.

Chen Ziang looked at Li Qiuting.

Li Qiuting had to say: "The film and television industry is not easy to mix now, the salary is being suppressed, and I am now taking over movies according to last year's salary, and it is difficult to receive a few agreeable films." ”

Indeed, the "sky-high salary" of actors has always been a hot topic of public concern. At the beginning of this year, the Television Production Committee of the China Federation of Radio, Film and Television Social Organizations and other four associations jointly issued the "Opinions on the Allocation Ratio of Production Costs of TV Drama Online Dramas", which restricted the remuneration of actors, requiring that the total remuneration of all actors should not exceed 40% of the total production cost, of which the main actors should not exceed 70% of the total remuneration.

China's film and television industry urgently needs to establish a good development mechanism, but it is not enough to limit the remuneration of actors. It is necessary to formulate reasonable industry conventions through relevant parties, so as to mitigate the adverse effects of high remuneration and restore a healthy market environment.

In order to truly change the imbalance in market development, it is necessary to increase the supply of talents, and secondly, to change the current business model, transforming from a fan economy to a content economy and a creative economy.

Last year, Chen Ziang discussed this topic with Guan Tongtong, and at the beginning of this year, the restrictions came out.

Then, a survey of 2,001 respondents conducted by the Social Survey Center of China Youth Daily and the questionnaire network showed that 95.5% of the respondents believed that the current actors' salaries were too high, and 83.2% of the respondents thought that the "sky-high salaries" of actors were unreasonable. 84.4% of the respondents supported the regulations on restricting remuneration jointly issued by the four associations. 63.8% of the respondents believe that specific relevant policies should be formulated for the signing rules of actors' remuneration, 61.7% of the respondents believe that industry associations should formulate conventions and jointly abide by them, 50.6% of the respondents suggest that newcomers should be hired to get out of the vicious circle of scumbags and high salaries, and 39.1% of the respondents believe that the domestic market should be purified and a good development mechanism should be established.

Chen Ziang will not look for those sky-high salaries of little fresh meat, like the fifth season of "Running Man" in his previous life, Lu Han's salary for the whole season was exposed, 40 million!

Later, it turned out to be useful, the quality of the fifth season of the program was not good, the ratings plummeted, and the program team and sponsors were crying and fainting.

This is not to say that Lu Han has no effect at all, of course he can bring some traffic, but compared with the sky-high salary, wouldn't it be better for the program team to spend this money on the design talents of the program team?

"Ichiro rarely appears on variety shows...... Eight million!" Lu Weiting said: "We are enough to reduce our value." ”
