The crew of "Straight to the Clouds".
November 3, 2012
At 11 a.m. the next day, the official Weibo of the TV series "Straight to the Clouds" issued a sincere apology letter, and at the end of the apology letter, a photo of the producer and the beaten extras hugging in the hospital was attached.
After seeing the apology letter of "Green Clouds", all the extras who paid attention to the development of the matter were very excited. It's not because of how sincere the apology letter is, nor because the crew fired Lin Nengping, who beat people, but because of the words "group performance teacher" in the apology letter.
For a long time, extras have not been regarded as a real profession, and in the eyes of producers and directors, they are miscellaneous jobs. Their status in the crew is the lowest, anyone can bully them, even beat them if they want, scold them whenever they want, they don't have any dignity at all, and even many group performers feel that they are inferior. They never dreamed that one day the crew would add the word "teacher" to the end of the group performance, and some people would respectfully call them "group performance teachers".
In the post bar where the extras gathered, someone excitedly said: "I can't believe it, I feel like I'm dreaming, and I actually call us a group performance teacher!"
"Yes, I have been a group performer for more than three years, and I am always beaten and scolded, and it is the first time that I have been called a teacher!"
"Mom, group performance teacher! I didn't expect that I would be called a teacher one day! Hahaha! I was a little flustered when I heard this title!"
The beating actor was fired, and the crew apologized, but the matter was not over yet. Countless people in the entire entertainment industry are waiting for the results of the Actors Guild's investigation, and everyone wants to know how the Actors Guild will deal with this matter in the end.
After two days of investigation and discussion, the Actors Guild announced the results of the investigation on Weibo on the evening of November 4, as well as the final solution.
The official Weibo of the Actors Guild said: "On November 2, 2012, the Actors Guild of the China Film and Television Alliance received a complaint from a member that some actors from the crew beat up the extras of the Guild.
On the afternoon of November 2, 2012, during the filming, actor Lin Nengping clashed with extras Liu and had a fight, but they were quickly pulled away. At 7 o'clock in the evening, Lin took the crew to martial arts, found Liu, and fought with Liu and other extras. Two extras were injured in the fight and were taken to the hospital for treatment.
According to the research of the Actors' Association, Lin Nengping beat people first, and took revenge later, which seriously violated the safety of the guild actors, so within three years from now on, the China Film and Television Alliance will regard Lin Nengping as persona non grata and will refuse to cooperate with him, and its film and television base will also refuse to provide services to Lin Nengping's crew; ”
In Hollywood, it is quite common for the screen actors union to issue a restraining order, for example, when Peter Jackson was filming "The Hobbit" in 09, because he thought that the salary offered by "The Hobbit" was too low, seven organizations, including the Screen Actors Guild, jointly issued a statement calling on union members not to appear in "The Hobbit".
However, this is the first time in China, and it is the first time that an industry association has issued a prohibition order to protect extras. The extras have always had the least status in the domestic crew, and anyone can bully. Now there is finally an organization to support them!
After the actors' guild's ban came out, many extras had red eyes, and some of the female group actors cried into tears. In this moment, they feel that they are no longer alone and that they have a home.
An extras wrote in the post bar: "From today on, the days of our group performances being bullied by others are over!"
Someone else wrote: "Zhang Ran is the god in my heart, whoever dares to hack him is my enemy!"
The extras are full of gratitude to Zhang Ran, and they all hope to do something for Zhang Ran, but they really have nothing to do, the only thing they can do is to write a sentence under Zhang Ran's Weibo: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang!"
As a result, Zhang Ran's Weibo was quickly swiped by the replies of the extras, and in a very short period of time, there were more than 100,000 messages, all of which were the same words: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang".
Zhou Zhenhua did not leave a message on Zhang Ran's Weibo, now he is no longer an extra, but the owner of a film and television company, but he is no less grateful to Zhang than these extras. If he hadn't met Zhang Ran, if he hadn't been inspired by Zhang Ran, maybe he would have gone back to the countryside to farm.
Thirteen years ago, Zhou Zhenhua went to Beiping to start Beipiao. At the beginning, Zhou Zhenhua also fantasized about being able to get ahead and become a big star. But he soon realized that this was impossible, and the extras showed their faces at most, and most of the time they were just full of numbers and showed their bodies, and it was impossible for them to be remembered by the audience. So, he was as discouraged and disappointed as many extras, either playing cards or sleeping on the set, like a walking corpse, and mixing day by day. It wasn't until he met Zhang Ran in the crew who took students to the crew to experience life that he heard Zhang Ran say the words that he would remember for a lifetime: "Above people, you must treat others as people; ”
Because of this sentence, Zhou Zhenhua has grown from an extras to a large group of leaders in eleven years, and from a large group to the boss of a film and television company, and Zhang Ran has also grown from a young teacher who can only use his fists to protect his students, to a towering tree, an extra, and a piece of heaven for all actors!
Zhou Zhenhua looked at the sentence after sentence "Thank you Teacher Zhang" under Zhang Ran's Weibo, and said softly: "If you are really grateful to Teacher Zhang, work hard and mix up your personal appearance!"
Li Song is a small group leader in Beiping City, at the lowest level in the chain of group heads, and has dozens of extras in his hands. His daily job is to register his name and phone number after gathering the extras, deduct his ID card, and then stay on the set with the extras, waiting for the big names to come to film or wait for the announcement of the scene.
After the beating incident in Lin'an Century Film, more than a dozen very good extras under Li Song went to Lin'an, saying that they would not be bullied over there. Seeing that the team he had developed with great difficulty was about to disperse, Li Song naturally hated Zhang Ran, the culprit. He sat in the corner of the set, wrote the word "Zhang Ran" on the ground with a stone, and then hit a cross and scolded viciously: "Zhang Ran on a dog day!"
At this moment, the surrounding extras let out a burst of discussion. Li Song looked up and saw a beautiful girl with a curvaceous figure walking towards him. This is his former group performer, named Sun Yuehong, because of his good looks, he quickly became a special contract, and now he is well-known in the group performance circle. Li Song quickly smiled on his face: "Xiaohong, why are you here?"
Sun Yuehong looked at Li Song and smiled: "Brother Song, I am going to develop in the Lin'an Century Shadow Capital." I've been taking care of you for the past two years, and now I'm leaving, I definitely have to come and say goodbye to you!"
When Li Song heard that Sun Yuehong was going to Lin'an, he couldn't help but say: "Xiaohong, are you crazy? You have made a special appointment, and you will be a real actor if you take another step! Why do you want to go? You are not familiar with life in Lin'an, and everything has to start all over again!"
Sun Yuehong shook her head lightly: "What about special contracts, special contracts are no different from miscellaneous ones in the eyes of others, you can scold if you want to fight." Last time in the crew of "Gods and Demons", the assistant director asked us what we thought of the gods and demons in costumes, and I said that the costumes were too revealing to be worn. When that assistant director came over, it was a slap in the face, you bitch pretending to be pure! When I went to Lin'an, I had to start from scratch, but at least I wouldn't be beaten, at least someone would stand up for me when I was bullied! We are human beings, and we are also dignified!"
Sun Song looked at Sun Yuehong in a daze and said, yes, extras are also human beings, and they are also dignified! If it weren't for the fact that there was no better choice, who would want to suffer that kind of wretchedness! After a while, he sighed, waved his hand, and said: "You go! Now that many film and television companies have moved to Lin'an, you are beautiful and can endure hardships, you will have a chance!"
Within a week after the actors' guild issued a ban order, tens of thousands of extras rushed to the Yangtze River Delta from film and television bases across the country. In front of the certificate window of the actor guilds of the Century Film Metropolis, Hengdian, Chedun, Xiangshan and other film and television bases, there was a long queue of extras waiting for the certificate. What is surprising is that there are many well-known actors in the crowd waiting in line for registration, and they are just as honest as the extras waiting in line.
In the certificate hall of the Lin'an Century Film Capital Actors Guild, the reporter found the actor Li Binbin queuing up to register. So the reporter conducted a simple interview with Li Binbin: "You are a first-line star, why do you want to join the Actors Guild?"
"In the last two years, I have participated in some Hollywood films, joined the Screen Actors Guild, and found that they protect the actors very well, and there are many protective provisions in the membership contract, such as the full deployment of qualified medical personnel and mobile nursing vehicles on the set when filming scenes involving stunts," Lee explained. A few days ago, after the extras of the Actors Guild of the Industry Alliance were beaten, the guild issued a prohibition order, which gave me a sense of belonging and security, and I felt that we finally had an organization to protect actors in China! In this way, if we encounter anything that harms our rights and interests in the future, we will have a place to defend our rights!"
The reporter immediately asked: "Will a big star like you have his rights and interests violated?"
Li Binbin nodded and said: "Of course there is, for example, many actors will encounter the problem of overtime work, I have the experience of drinking 12 bags of instant coffee and filming for 48 hours in a row, and the whole person is tired, I hope the actors' union can help limit the overtime work of actors......"
Li Binbing's interview quickly became a hot topic after it was reported in the newspaper, and it also attracted more actors to enter the door of the actors' guild, and even Li Binbin joined the guild, what reason do we have to refuse?
