Perfect Life

On May 25th, Minghu Culture Communication Co., Ltd. Feng Yumin Film and Television Culture Studio was officially established - check forward, check back, this is definitely a studio listing ceremony with the highest standard in China, Minghu Culture is here A group of stars headed by Li Qian came to cheer in succession. Fortunately, the key is that the general manager and deputy general manager of provincial satellite TV stations have come to 17 nationwide, and the general manager and deputy general manager of Huaxia TV station have also come. There are three in total, and there are countless big fish and small fish outside the other circles.

The scene was too big. Many people came to see this scene, and they were stunned at first. Many people even came to sign their names, and then left after giving gifts. There are too many people, and they are all very high-level. If they are not high-level enough and don't have a boss to take them with them, on such an occasion, even if they wait until the end, they won't have a chance to speak to the Feng family.

Mr. Feng Yumin has been in charge of the film and television industry for many years, especially the connections he has accumulated over the years in charge of the TV drama production center of Huaxia TV, which is indeed difficult for ordinary people to match.

Of course, so many leaders showed up to cheer, not all to give Feng Yumin face alone.

No matter how powerful Feng Yumin is, no matter how famous, no matter how old the rivers and lakes are, he is still only a powerful TV drama director. In the sky, he is very good by producing one or two TV dramas a year.

Therefore, his face, at best, accounts for half.

The remaining half is for Li Qian, Minghu Culture, and the face of "Swordsman".

Of course, some are for Feng Bicheng.

Because it is obvious that when Feng Yumin resigned from Huaxia TV, he co-founded his own film and television culture studio with Jinghua Film. At that time, it was also listed and there were celebrations, but not many people attended, and the specifications dropped at least one or two. level.

But this time, his studio was listed, shaking half of the entertainment industry.

When giving a thank you speech, he did not hide his ambitions in the future. He said on the spot that in the six years of cooperation with Minghu Culture in the future, he plans to direct and produce eight to ten TV series himself. , and the studio's opening work is "Swordsman"!

There is no doubt that with Feng Yumin's status in the arena and the super strength he has shown over the years, he is backed by the big tree of Minghu culture, and he has directly won the "Swordsman" that other companies can't get. The right to adapt TV series, Feng Yumin's studio can be said to stand up all at once.

At the same time, with the official listing of Minghu Culture's first personal studio, the news of Minghu Culture's plans to build multiple personal studios in the next step has gradually spread.

In fact, in today's domestic film and television circles and music circles, studios are no longer a rarity.

In the film and television industry, Zheng Zhongyuan was the first to establish a personal studio, and Guo Yulong was not too late. Their studios have been established for at least five or six years, and as many as seven or eight years.

Even pushing it forward, the predecessor of Minghu Culture was Li Qian's studio.

Today, with the creation of personal studios of many celebrities, this has become a trend.

To put it simply, the market is getting bigger and bigger, and the market influence of famous actors and directors is getting bigger and bigger. Therefore, they are no longer satisfied with just getting a little salary. They are eager to participate in the studio. In the operation of the entire market, you can exchange your reputation, ability, and some capital accumulated over the years for more voice and more interests.

But Minghu Culture has never had a personal studio.

Strictly speaking, the development route and company framework implemented by Minghu Culture before have always been in a way similar to a "big studio".

This "big studio" development model was once prevalent in Hong Kong in the 1960s and 1980s in the time and space that Li Qian once experienced.

In this model, a large company has established a one-stop industrial chain that can be fully self-sufficient from production to broadcast or projection with strong output capabilities and strong production capabilities, thereby forming a one-stop industrial chain. A closed-loop ecology of film and television.

Under this large-scale studio model, all the people, from the screenwriters, directors, actors, to the behind-the-scenes staff, are all ordinary staff in the studio, and everyone is paid, at best there are bonuses. , there is no way to talk about it - in Hong Kong in another time and space, Shaw Brothers' big studio is like this.

But the "big studio" of Minghu Culture is very different from this.

Minghu Culture has its own production and output chain of film and television works, from screenwriters, producers, directors, actors, behind-the-scenes, post-production, music production, to distribution and screening. Professionals - from directors, screenwriters to actors, to lighting, to editors, etc., each link can be solved by itself.

However, Minghu Culture implements the contract model of basic salary plus film salary.

And Minghu Culture is not "closed loop".

Taking actors as an example, Minghu Culture itself has signed dozens of actors, but these actors cannot always appear together in various TV dramas or movies, so Minghu Culture's development idea in terms of actors is that any one For film and television works, I only focus on the main and give up the secondary.

In each play, the hero and heroine and important supporting roles, whenever possible, try to use the contracted actors of their own company, but do not completely exclude actors from other companies. For its own contracted actors, the company will not close it, but actively encourage everyone to go out to pick up plays.

This is an extremely liquid semi-closed loop mode.

Strictly speaking, this development model is very unstable and deformed.

In any market, especially a huge film and television market like China with more than one billion viewers, it is logically impossible for such a company to appear - your company is high above, outputting the most successful works, cultivating the most popular Actor, all our companies can only follow you for soup?

how is this possible!

However, at the time of the rise of Minghu Culture in film and television, at the time of the painful transformation of domestic films, the film market of the entire country was suffering from the impact of foreign films, and the entire film circle lost its direction for a while.

At this time, Minghu Culture has been holding high the banner of commercial films since the first movie, with the first orientation of making excellent commercial films, and with the existence of a special BUG-level character like Li Qian, Minghu Culture has This series of development ideas has been implemented without compromise, and soon achieved great success with almost no setbacks.

Therefore, such a very deformed development model has succeeded in such a very special era.

Today's Minghu Culture has the strength to crush its peers in TV dramas, movies, music and other entertainment industries, and it also has a large number of superstars who crush its peers.

In recent years, the so-called "Four Stars" in China, Minghu Culture has accounted for three of them. And the so-called four little Huadan, Minghu Culture accounted for three more!

Speaking of the most popular male stars in China in recent years, Zhou Baoshan, Zhou Zhiyu, Huang Ge, etc., are almost the top ones.

How to do? This is the reality!

When no one could make good commercial films, only Minghu Culture produced one successful commercial masterpiece after another.

And when these films were welcomed by the audience and won a strong box office, the actors naturally became popular with the show and became the most popular stars of the audience.

Therefore, it is such a deformed development model, which has been completely finalized.

Minghu Culture has become the brightest star in the domestic entertainment circle.

Time has developed to this point, so that as long as major companies want to make big investment dramas, they need to hire superstars with box office appeal. The first time they think of the superstars in Minghu Culture, for the sake of insurance, in order to not waste their investment. , even if the price is high, it will be tolerated, but this will in turn lead to the stars of Minghu Culture becoming more and more popular, and other companies have to reluctantly lose the opportunity to promote their own people.

To the next time, the next play, you still have to pay a high price to ask for it.

Dare not to invite any big names, just rely on ordinary actors or even newcomers to make a director of a big investment movie. In the current country, there is basically only one Li Qian.

Even Qin Wei, Du Weiyun, Zhao Meicheng, Liu Chengzhang, Wu Han, who have been famous for a long time, and even big directors with their own fans, dare not shoot like Li Qian.

The strong get stronger.

In such a situation where the company is extremely strong, regardless of whether it is a director or an actor, even if it is popular, it can only continue to be honest.

Want to open a studio?

No, impossible!

That's a typical fight for profit with the company. Do you still want to get involved?

Therefore, Liu Yan was the first to jump.

And this jump, she left Minghu Culture, and immediately upgraded from one of the original four little Huadan, a TV drama actress, to a film investor, producer, and the heroine of Qin Wei's big-budget movie!

It's a leap forward!

As long as you think about it for a while, you will know that as long as you are human, how can you not want more benefits?

Liu Yan's jump is equivalent to opening a big hole in the originally stable ecosystem of Minghu Culture - the joining and affiliation of Feng Yumin's studio, to a certain extent, it can be regarded as a bigger hole. .

Of course, no one dared to jump out at this time.

Although there must be many people in the company who have the idea of ​​opening a studio, Feng Yumin is a special case. He became famous outside the system of Minghu Culture, even before the so-called "Minghu Culture System". The character of the predator was then dug over, and this treatment cannot be imitated naturally.

Second, although Liu Yan jumped, it looked like she was flying high. But what will be the result? Open a personal studio, do you really earn money? Has the director Qin Wei really soared for nine days?

Not yet known.

So, no one is willing to act rashly at the moment.

Even those with a little bit of IQ and EQ know that they have to wait and see if Liu Yan's wave can come true, and whether it is really better than before, so that they can determine their next direction.

After all, everyone knows that it is good to be one of the bosses to participate in investment, but the risks in film and television investment have always been great. It doesn't mean that as soon as your studio opens and you start to participate in film and television investment, you really immediately jump into the dragon gate - whether you can jump on it, it's hard to say!

But at this time, Minghu Culture took the initiative to propose a studio system.

When talking about this matter, Li Qian said to Qi Jie, "As for the benefits, give what should be given, and give up the benefits to keep people's hearts. Don't wait for others to take the initiative to speak, it is often too late."

Therefore, after Feng Yumin's studio settled in Minghu Culture, it was put on the agenda that Minghu Culture was about to build a personal studio for some people who "made great contributions to the development of the company".

It is conceivable that although the surface is still calm, secretly, these people in the company have long gone crazy-discussions about who can drive, who can't, who is qualified, who is excellent, and so on. , in private almost all the time someone is chatting.

…………

A day at the end of May.

Zhejiang, Jinhua Film and Television City.

With a "click!" from the director Liu Changqing, the crew temporarily stopped, and then he shouted again, "This one is over! Prepare for the next one!" The entire crew then became fully active.

This is the filming site of the film "Legend of Dang Kou" produced and produced by Donghua Film and Television.

The film has invested 60 million yuan and has been invited to emerge for nearly two years. The two films in a row have already won a total of more than 150 million yuan at the box office. In the domestic film circle, it is considered to be directed by Liu Changqing, a cutting-edge director who has emerged in the domestic film circle.

As the top Chinese superstar at the moment, this is Zhou Baoshan, who has finally taken over the filming of four consecutive films produced by Minghu Culture, including "Once Upon a Time", "Once Upon a Time", "The Matrix" and "Shaolin Temple". The first film not produced by Minghu Culture.

His remuneration, for Chinese actors, has broken through the sky.

Up to 15 million Chinese dollars!

That is to say, his own remuneration accounted for a quarter of the total investment of the entire film!

But even so, it was only after careful selection by the agency of Minghu Culture that this work was selected. That is to say, the crew that is also willing to pay 15 million yuan is not only this one, but it has been pushed by Zhou Baoshan's agent.

Moreover, in addition to the basic salary of 15 million, the agency of Minghu Culture also negotiated for Zhou Baoshan a 3% share of the global box office after the movie is released in the future!

Among the actors in China today, only Guo Yulong and Zheng Zhongyuan were able to get a share of the box office, but they were generally around 2%. Although Li Qian filmed "Fairy Tales in Autumn", although he was filming for his company, he still asked for up to 10% of the global box office share in addition to the basic salary of 10 million yuan.

In the past year, especially since "The Matrix" swept the world, as long as there are outside film appointments, Zhou Baoshan and He Yingyu must share the box office.

Otherwise, there is no discussion at all, and it is directly pushed away.

Zhou Baoshan walked back, said hello to director Liu Changqing, and asked politely, "Director Liu, are you alright?"

Liu Changqing made an "OK" gesture and said with a smile, "No problem!"

He also warned: "You pay attention to take a rest, and take a picture immediately."

Zhou Baoshan nodded and said, "Good director."

It was only at this time that his assistant came over with a water cup, first handed it to him, and after he took a sip to moisten his throat, he took the cup and reported in a low voice, "Brother Hu called just now, Said he arrived before evening. I heard what he meant, there should be something to discuss with you. "

The so-called "Brother Hu" is Zhou Baoshan's agent, Hu Yuan. With the popularity of Zhou Baoshan in recent years, he quickly ascended the position and became one of the most famous and powerful brokers in the Minghu Cultural Brokerage Department.

In addition, his most famous actor is Zhou Baoshan's brother, Zhong Yuanfu.

Zhou Baoshan first nodded when he heard the words, but then he couldn't help turning his head to look at his assistant, still with a smile on his face, and asked, "He said nothing?"

The assistant shook his head and said, "No."

Zhou Baoshan didn't ask any more questions, he just couldn't help thinking in his heart, it's not that Hu Yuan didn't know, the movie can be finished in five or six days at most, and how important he can be, he has to fly over for a while. trip?

Zhou Baoshan understood this question after filming was over that day.

Jinhua Film and Television City is a place Zhou Baoshan is very familiar with, but this time when he came back to film, he no longer had to go to sleep in cheap rental houses like he did when he was doing group performances.

The contract clearly states: No matter where the crew goes to film, Zhou Baoshan's living conditions must be a presidential suite in a four-star hotel or above. Moreover, the crew should prepare an extra luxury business room for him at any time to arrange for his agent, friend or assistant to stay.

Of course, the crew pays the bill.

So, the crew arranged for him a presidential suite in the only five-star hotel next to the Studio City.

In the entire crew, he is the only one who has this treatment. Even the director of the crew, Liu Changqing, lived in ordinary suites. As for the others, most of them were ordinary business rooms or double rooms. From this point of view, Zhou Baoshan, who returned to Jinhuafu this time, It can be considered to have some meaning of returning home.

After finishing the day's shooting~www.wuxiaspot.com~ When Zhou Baoshan took off his makeup and came out, he saw that his agent Hu Yuan was already waiting outside. Looking at his face, Zhou Baoshan politely greeted director Liu Changqing, saying that he was a little tired and wanted to rest first, so he would not participate in the evening dinner. Then he joined Hu Yuan and his assistant, took the battery car out of the film and television city, and returned to the hotel.

When I got back to the hotel room and the assistant went out, Hu Yuan said, "Yesterday I represented you to attend the inauguration ceremony of Teacher Feng Yumin's studio. I heard a piece of news, and I specifically asked a lot of people to ask about it last night. It can be confirmed, the company will start to build several individual studios in the next step.”

Zhou Baoshan looked at him and said calmly, "Then what?"

Hu Yuan said: "Then... it is said that there is no you."
