Chapter 149: Have you broken the rules of the entertainment industry?

When Zhang Yibai heard such a question, he immediately realized something, that is, there was a traitor in his crew.

It is difficult for outsiders to know the details of the matter of inviting Ye Ming to star in a short time. But at this moment, the reporter actually said that he had grasped the matter.

Therefore, Zhang Yibai was caught off guard and said: "This matter is a commercial secret and the time is not yet mature. Therefore, it is not convenient for me to answer such a question."

However, someone who can be sent away so easily by just a word of business secret is not worthy of being called a reporter of [Southern Sunday].

It can be said that the current reporters of [Southern Sunday] are daring characters, and all of them have unique skills. Even Lao Bai, who has never been very good at dealing with Ye Ming, is no different in the Beijing entertainment circle. Very famous.

Therefore, at this time, the female reporter was not discouraged and said: "Director Zhang, this cannot be said to be a trade secret. I have no intention of inquiring about your company's trade secrets. But this also involves some issues of other crews.

Ye Ming can't even be hired for 8,000 yuan per episode. If Ye Ming would volunteer to make a movie, this would be a bit puzzling. Mr. Ye Ming, you are breaking the rules by doing this. "

He directly pointed the finger at Ye Ming. Since he was talking about Zhang Yibai's cunning family, he might as well raise the matter and ask Ye Ming himself at a time like this. It is impossible for Ye Ming to avoid this problem, and there is no way to avoid this problem. Otherwise, at this time, he will not hang out in this circle in the future.

Ye Ming said with a smile: "Actually, this is not a very mature idea. Originally, I wanted to experiment it first. If it succeeds, then share the experience with everyone. If it fails, Then I will bear the consequences alone. In fact, this is a new attempt, and there is nothing wrong with it. I did not want to star in this TV series for a penny of pay."

At this moment, the audience was talking a lot. Even the female reporter from [Southern Sunday] was caught off guard by Ye Ming. If Ye Ming used every possible means to excuse himself, the female reporter had already thought of various ways to deal with it.

However, she never expected that Ye Ming would admit such a thing so decisively. This is unscientific, what does he want to do, and whether he wants to make a TV series in the future. If he breaks the rules, no one will invite him in the future.

After being stunned for a long time, the female reporter asked: "Mr. Ye, it is said that someone has paid you 8,000 yuan to film a movie. Why did you agree to star in this movie for free?"

Ye Ming immediately pointed at the female reporter and said: "Ma'am, please pay attention to your wording. I said you don't get a penny of remuneration. I don't mean that I will star in this drama for free. In fact, I have already participated in investing in this drama. My salary is tied to this drama. If the ratings of this drama are good after it is broadcast, then the greater my income will be.

How to put it this way, it is similar to the method of "Party A and Party B" directed by Feng Xiaogang. Director Feng did not ask for any salary, but received compensation based on the box office of the movie. "

These words shocked all the reporters present. No salary was required, but investment was required, and the profits were based on the ratings. This is something that has never happened before in the mainland entertainment industry. At least in the TV industry, no one dares to participate in a TV series in such an avant-garde way.

Because even if we talk about Tianchao TV's new year's dramas, they are carefully selected, but there are still many that have dismal ratings. Therefore, at this time, most celebrities who appeared in TV series received a fixed salary for their performances.

One-third is charged when signing the contract, one-third is charged during the filming, and the last one-third is charged after the filming is completed.

Everyone in the industry does this, but there is no rule saying that celebrities cannot participate in investment in TV series.

At this time, the female reporter was in a daze: "Well, Mr. Ye's method has never happened before. It's quite fresh."

Ye Ming said with a smile: "This is also following the trend of the times. It just so happens that I have a film and television company, which is now Brilliant Film and Television. If I have a company, I can just invest. Anyway, the people in the company are idle. This person Do you have any more questions, ma’am?”

In fact, most of the reporters present got the news. In fact, they were all because of the blockbuster news that Ye Ming participated in the filming of "Love to the End" for free. Of course, some of them were because of Ye Minghe. The grievance between Mao Duoduo and Mao Duoduo comes from the fact that the relationship between these two people is not very good, which is basically no secret in the circle.

Therefore, the two of them are in the same crew, which means there will definitely be a good show to watch.

However, in the end, Ye Ming suddenly came up with the investment [Pursue Love to the End]. They invested it themselves, let alone not paying a penny. You can't control it even if they say they give you money. Don't think that TV dramas won't cost you money. Not just one or two people have lost their money as a result of TV dramas.

The conflict between Ye Ming and Mao Duoduo, which everyone has high hopes for, has not made any progress because of Mao Duoduo's absence. Some reporters even believed that Mao Duoduo's absence was arranged by the crew to prevent reporters from discovering some conflicts between Ye Ming and Mao Duoduo.

The next day, major media began to report one after another. One was the female reporter of [Southern Sunday] that [Ye Ming participated in "Love" without pay. Is it innovation or hype? 】This media adheres to the consistent pattern of Ye Ming's black. Anyway, the news that is beneficial to Ye Ming is usually reported in Chunqiu style, while the news that is unfavorable to Ye Ming is definitely a big deal in a situation like this. Bookishly.

There is also a report from [Shanghai Entertainment] [Mao Duoduo and Ye Ming competed on the same stage, and Mao Duoduo was absent from the press conference because he was ill]. The focus of this article is to explore the conflicts between the crew, Ye Ming and Mao Duoduo.

Anyway, at this time, Jin Jianlin was not in a good mood when he saw the report. He said angrily: "Lao Zhang, this is not a good thing. The media's focus is on Ye Ming and Mao Duoduo. They are not interested in our new... The drama doesn’t get much attention. If this continues, who will buy our TV drama? Are you going to make some news?"

Zhang Yibai said with a smile: "You still don't understand some of the rules in this circle. Why did we invite Ye Ming and Mao Duoduo to come? It is to attract everyone's attention. In such a situation, the media's The more attention they pay, the better things will be for us in a situation like this. Paying attention to the two of them is actually paying attention to our crew. Can't you understand this?"

Ye Ming is the current male protagonist of "Carry Love to the End", and Mao Duoduo is also an important supporting role in it. Paying attention to the two of them is actually paying attention to the crew of "Carry Love to the End".

In a coffee shop in Shanghai that overlooks the entire Bund, Ye Ming and Zhao Wei are enjoying this rare leisure time. The Yangtze River is rolling eastward, and with the sunset by the river, they can see the endless river water. This prosperous city can be passed through easily, and it does not take away any sadness or loneliness. It is as calm as a piece of flowing emerald.

The setting sun dyed the water on the river bank red, and the sparkling light seemed to coat everything on the river with a little bit of bright red. It was so beautiful that people wanted to lock this moment in their hearts and keep it for a long time. At this time, Zhao Wei sighed and said: "You are a person who will cause trouble for yourself. If you say you want to participate in the stock market, just participate in the stock market. If you say it openly and confidently, isn't this going to cause trouble for yourself?

How many people hate you and gnash their teeth with hatred. Actors receive a fixed salary. This has always been the practice in the industry. Tell me, if you do it like this, does it mean that you are a little too busy? "

Ye Ming smiled and didn't take such a thing seriously at all, as if he didn't cause it at all. He put down the coffee in his hand with a smile and said: "Don't you think some things in this circle need to be reformed?

Besides, I didn’t say anything about the situation at that time, but the director would. Zhao Wei shook his head and said, "Of course it's different. If your director said this, he will bear the responsibility in the end. But if you say it yourself, then everyone will target you."

How many actors rely on this fixed salary to make a living? With your appearance, many people will have nothing to eat in the future. You said, how can others not hate you for things like cutting off people's wealth? "

Ye Ming was very sure and said: "Don't worry, the director may do that in the future, but not many actors will do that. I didn't expect to be the first person, and they won't want to ask me for such a thing in the future." Might find it on my head.

Most actors still receive a fixed salary. By the way, how do you feel? I said that in Baodao, [Huanzhugege] is not so popular now. If you go to Baodao now, you will enjoy first-line stars, even superstars. treatment. "

Speaking of this situation, Zhao Wei said with a happy face: "It's really like a dream. I didn't expect that a Qing palace drama filmed under such conditions would actually be so... A strong reaction. At least, now that I’m on the set, I don’t have to act based on other people’s faces. It’s a bit unaccustomed to me.”

This is not Zhao Wei's pretentiousness. There is no need for her to be pretentious in front of an old friend like Ye Ming. She is just speaking from her feelings. Zhao Wei's second TV series is actually able to be so popular. Soaring into the sky, this is simply like riding a rocket and becoming famous. It was understandable that she could not bear this kind of treatment for a while. (To be continued)
