Chapter 41: It's Time to Raise Your Pay!
The news of the victory naturally spread to the crew again quickly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Compared to yesterday's excitement, this time everyone is much calmer.
Everyone just congratulated each other happily for a while, and then began to shoot again.
It's not that I'm unhappy, but I can come back from the 12 o'clock stall, and I can get such a good result at 7 o'clock, so there's no doubt about it, why make such a fuss?
But at the same time, they are also more energetic, and they are more and more energetic when filming.
At noon, although Xiao Sheng didn't invite everyone to eat out of his own pocket like yesterday, today's boxed lunch has also been upgraded, and even the one who runs the trick has a big chicken leg, and when he bites it, it is a mouthful of fat, which is very refreshing.
Wei Xiaofan is the leading actor, and the amount of food is good, so he has three chicken legs, wears big pants, and sits on the ground and eats fragrantly.
Dong Wei is also a foodie, he asked for two boxes of rice and five chicken legs, if Yin Jun hadn't helped him get it, people wouldn't necessarily give it.
Hui Tianci next to him ate a lot more than Sven, but he laughed while eating, a little silly, but it showed that he was in a very good mood.
Yin Jun also sat next to them, and while eating lunch, he also asked about them: "Brother Wei, Brother Hui, Viagra, this "True and False Champion", there is still one episode to finish, do you have any plans?"
"What are you going to do?" Wei Xiaofan said stunned, "Keep filming, didn't you write 15 units? Let's continue to shoot and make a classic for them to see in Xiangjiang! Also show my father and mother, younger brothers and sisters!!"
"I mean, your contract issues. Yin Jun smiled slightly, "If I'm not mistaken, you signed a single contract for twenty episodes, right?"
"Yes. ā
Hui Tianci replied: "It's just a simple contract that will be completed in 20 episodes, and there is no guarantee. I am paid 150 yuan for one episode, and Brother Wei is 200 yuan for one episode. Ah Wei is even less, 20 episodes are included, 2000 yuan. ā
"It's a lot, and it can be filmed in a month. Dong Wei raised his head and said with a smile full of oil: "I only counted about 1,500 in a month in Baodao." ā
Yin Jun nodded.
Jiashi's script fee to Yin Jun is 500 yuan per episode, which is an average level in the industry, not harsh.
But the salary given to Wei Xiaofan and Hui Tian is not an ordinary price at all, but almost the cheapest price for supporting roles.
Don't look at the movie stars in Xiangjiang in the future, they will be paid tens of millions of dollars at every turn, but that is later, and that is the price of movie stars, and the salary standard of TV is completely different.
Especially in this era when prices and labor in Xiangjiang have not skyrocketed, the actors of TV series are even more low-paid.
Let's take two simple examples.
In 74, Hui Yinghong, that is, Hui Tianci's younger sister, when she was a basic actor in Shaw Brothers Pictures, she only had a monthly salary of 500, and there was no penny of subsidies for the rest.
76 years, that is, two years ago, the future fat cat actor Zheng Zeshi, won the championship of the acting competition on the set of Shengbao, and was signed wirelessly, all he can get is a basic salary of 400 a month, and it will be counted separately for filming a TV series.
And Zheng Zeshi's contract method also represents the common way of the three major TV stations in Xiangjiang now.
There are generally two types of contracts for Hong Kong TV, one is called "paid artist contract", also known as "full manager contract with artist", and the other is called "head contract with artist".
The previous kind of paid artist contract is Zheng Zeshi, who gives a little basic salary a month, and each announcement and each episode of TV drama performances are paid separately according to work, which adds up to all the artist's income.
If you are diligent, you can save a little, but if you are not diligent and not favored, then life will be difficult.
Among them, there are more exaggerated ones, called "one show a year", which is usually aimed at newcomers who have just come out of the artist training class, such as Fa Ge, Xingzai, Andy, Qingyun, Yimian...... Wait, they don't have any basic salary in the first year, they are just paid according to their work, and they can barely eat their stomachs, so thank God.
However, "one show a year" is just one year, and the second year will usually be converted into a paid artist contract.
The paid artist contract is the most common and common contract of the TV station, and most people get this one.
And then the second type left, that is, the head contract, is rarely available.
The head of the ministry is interpreted literally, that is, I sign several plays with you a year, and each play is calculated according to your ability and fame.
As long as you finish it, then you can go outside to pick up the rest by yourself, including commercial activities, and you can do it yourself, without taking a cut or interfering.
That's great, isn't it?
However, such a good contract, few people in TV stations can get it.
In wireless, that is, Liu Songren and Wang Mingquan can only get it, even the very popular Zheng Shaoqiu, Zhou Yanfa and Zhao Yazhi, who have emerged in the past two years, don't think about it.
Everyone may be familiar with Wang Mingquan, the eldest sister, but they may not be familiar with Liu Songren, but as long as you mention a mainland man who is similar to him - Chen Daomin, everyone will know what he is like in Xiangjiang, basically, his acting and acting style are similar to Uncle Daoming, and his status is the same.
That's why he can have the treatment of the head of the contract.
Except for the first contract, the rest of the contract for paid artists is usually 5-10 years.
If it is a more popular star, then the longer the contract will be, and later the five Tigers of Wireless have signed a contract for an average of 10 years, and the most exaggerated one is 15 years - but at that time, because there were other loopholes, Wei Zai was able to get out in the end.
There is information that Xiangjiang's first head contract was obtained by Liang Chaowei, but he was much worse than Liu Songren and Wang Mingquan at that time, with Uncle Shao's stingy character, how could he give a newcomer head appointment that was just coming out?
Andy was more fierce than him at that time, and the sixth uncle said that the ban was not still blocked?
With the continuous development of Xiangjiang's economy in recent years, the salaries of artists have also increased a lot.
The first-class actors on the wireless side, that is, the leading actors, such as Zhou Runfa, he has a monthly guarantee of 600 yuan, and he will give him 200 yuan for filming an episode.
Li's first-class actors, such as Xu Shaoqiang, are more, with a minimum guarantee of 700 a month, and 250 yuan for one episode.
Of course, this was before Xu Shaoqiang didn't film "Silkworm Transformation", and after filming "Silkworm Transformation", he became a top TV superstar like Liu Songren, Zheng Shaoqiu, and Wu Weiguo, and the treatment at that time was even different.
The salary of the first-class actors here is higher, for example, Bai Biao is guaranteed at 800 a month, which is basically equivalent to the salary of ordinary people for a month, and then it is 300 yuan for an episode.
Of course, there is a reason for this, Jiashi did not have its own training personnel at the beginning, and they all relied on poaching people to achieve the team, so the salary they gave must be higher.
Because of the high salary, the rest of the expenses are also higher.
The high cost of expenditure is also one of the most important reasons for the collapse of Jiashi.
However, the TV stars of Xiangjiang should still be grateful to Jiashi, if they were not born, it would be absolutely impossible for Wireless and Lidi to raise the salaries of artists, and it would not be possible to have today's wealth.
Yes.
You read that right, although their salaries in the past two years, especially those of the main supporting roles and the salaries of the general supporting actors, are not too high, they are really much better than before.
At this time, even wireless didn't dare to take a salary cut, and had to raise his salary every year, just because of the existence of two opponents.
If you make them unhappy, everyone will leave and change jobs, who will play with you?
In later generations, those actors complained that the salary paid by wireless was not enough to even rent a house and eat, it was in the era when Jiashi collapsed and ATV was going to die, at that time, the wireless family was dominant, and it became the stingy and harsh Shao Yifu in charge, and the Li family had long left the management, so the stars were treated like that.
For so many years, celebrities' resentment towards wireless has piled up to an extremely terrible point.
If it weren't for the Xiangjiang government and Wang Weiji, who did not issue the free TV station license of the Xiangjiang TV Network, they might have been directly dug up and defeated around 2011-2012.
Come back to the present.
Jiashi gives general supporting roles a minimum of 400 a month and a price of 50 per episode.
It adds up to basically the same as the price of 200 and 150 episodes of the first and second male protagonists of "Bao Qingtian", and now the martial arts stand-ins on TV stations are 2000 a month, and Dong Wei's martial arts guidance only earns 2000 for 20 episodes, so Yin Jun thinks they are too stingy.
Of course, if it weren't for the fact that Wei Xiaofan and Hui Tianci were newcomers and the labor was cheap, Jiashi might not be willing to ask for them.
Therefore, the so-called one gain and one loss, whether it is a good deal or a loss, you can only know for yourself.
Now it seems that they have come to an absolute end.
Next, Jiashi will definitely shoot "Bao Qingtian". Yin Jun groaned, "The entire crew, that is, the four of us are not Jiashi." So they're going to let us go ahead and sign the contract, have you figured out what to do?"
"Hey, if you have something to say, just say it!" Wei Xiaofan smiled, "What do you think we should do?"
Hui Tianci and Dong Wei both nodded, for Yin Jun, they only had admiration left now.
"I won't talk about my screenwriting script for the time being, but your salary has to go up, but we can't make them feel too much for the sake of future cooperation. Yin Jun said calmly: "I mean, let's not sign a contract with a paid artist, let's finish the performance of "Bao Qingtian" first. If they want to count the next together, Brother Wei, you will offer 500 for an episode, Brother Hui will be 350, and Viagra will be less, just 200.
If they sign a unit by unit, it will be more convenient, just go with the market, the more popular we want, and then they will be distressed. But I don't think they're going to be that stupid, at least within these 108 episodes, they won't do that, and the fixed salary is a very stable approach. ā
"What if they don't give that much, or do they have to force us to sign a contract with a salaried artist?" said Hui Tianci with some concern.
"Don't worry, now we are keeping the initiative, Jiashi still has to rely on "Bao Qingtian" to pull the ratings, how can we risk losing the first and second male leads?" Yin Jun said, "You don't know, Brother Sheng told me just now, tonight, "Bao Qingtian" is the eight o'clock file, and it officially fights with "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" and "Transfigurative Doctor"! Even the previous "Golden Knife Lover" gave way to the 7 o'clock file, isn't it enough to express their importance to "Bao Qingtian"?"
"That's good!" Hui Tianci smiled from ear to ear.
Wei Xiaofan is not so particular about money, Dong Wei is the same, he is full alone, what do you want so much money for?
It's just that they all believe in Yin Jun, and whatever Yin Jun says, they can do it.
