Chapter 2138: Pay Arrears

Ode to Joy will be finished soon. Although the TV station hopes to launch the second part immediately, Ye Ming means to wait first. Basically, the second part will not appear until around the Spring Festival.

There was no other way. Ye Ming was unwilling to film immediately, so the TV station had no choice but to give in. Fortunately, Ye Ming didn't mean that he didn't give any face at all. After all, he gave him some face. To put it bluntly, he wanted to film a prologue episode.

Even if they brought in Ode to Joy and Five Beauties, they were all confused about this matter.

Is there any post-production of this TV series?

Zhao Baozi immediately raised his hand and asked: "Boss, doesn't Ode to Joy have a finale? What else needs a sequel?"

This matter is difficult to say. Therefore, when asked about such a question, Ye Ming thought for a while and said: "The question of the postscript is, to put it bluntly, just to fool everyone. Of course, it is clearly to thank everyone for their love for Ode to Joy." .

Although this problem is relatively rare in TV dramas, it is not unheard of.

The more famous one is the sequel to The Family Has a Fairy Wife. The TV series "The Fairy Wife" appeared on Baodao back then. It was also a hit and was quite an innovative TV series.

It can be said to be very imaginative. Even now, some ideas are timeless.

Moreover, at the end of this TV series, there is a post-prologue episode called The Fairy Wife at Home. You can come back and take a look.

Of course, you don’t have to feel pressure when I ask you to record this prologue, it’s just like a memoir interview or something.

Recall the hardships of filming Ode to Joy, and the process of you going from not knowing each other to becoming good friends.

Also, I want to comfort everyone and show everyone that this is just a temporary end. In the near future, the second part of Ode to Joy will also be available to everyone.

Anyway, it’s just to comfort everyone’s emotions. "Ye Ming's point is actually a bit unreasonable. Think about it, in the TV series, except for the weird thing about the fairy wife.

It seems that no TV series would dedicate an entire episode to a prologue or something like that.

Even if there are extras that are aired, for example, I Love My Family has aired some extras, but they are only a slight insertion in the main drama. There is no real saying that the whole episode is just for memories and broadcasts. Tidbits.

In other TV series, there are really no behind-the-scenes or other tricks to fool everyone.

However, Ye Ming was right about one thing. The Fairy Wife did indeed behave like this in the last episode.

Jiang Xin is a straightforward person.

Therefore, Jiang Xin immediately said: "Isn't your question just about deceiving people?

The audience is here to watch our performance, not to see us fooling people. What will happen if the audience curses?

There is no real content in the entire episode, just memories and tidbits. Doesn’t this deceive the audience into thinking they are fools? "

Ye Ming was not angry at all, but said very confidently: "Is this deceiving people?

This is to get closer to the audience. Do they know how you filmed Ode to Joy?

Do they, the audience, know your hard work?

You are rehearsing and filming 24 hours a day. If we don't come up with a post sequence to tell everyone about your efforts at a time like this, they won't know how much hardship you have endured.

Besides, advertisers can also benefit from one more episode of highlights. When people take money, they have to give an explanation.

There are also TV stations, they want to film the second part immediately. But I was stopped.

Now is the time for the market to digest things like your popularity, and you also want to take this opportunity to make more money by accepting some endorsements and so on.

As for the second part, it will be shot around the Spring Festival, right? If you shoot too early, it will not be of much benefit to you, the audience, or the advertisers. "The audience's digestion and discussion.

In fact, it also requires a process. After waiting for more than half a year, everyone has accepted the image of this Ode to Joy. By the second part, the ratings of Ode to Joy will definitely be higher.

At this time, Ye Ming actually just wanted to be a profitable businessman.

Jiang Xin wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, what the boss said made sense. More endorsements and more money would take time.

If we are shooting the second part now, then the time is really tight.

On a problem like this, if you wait a little longer, it won't be a big deal.

Therefore, Jiang Xin also kept silent and said nothing more.

Ye Ming looked at everyone seriously and said: "You have just become famous now and are enjoying the feeling of being surrounded by stars.

Therefore, you must calm down now, study hard to be a big star, and don't cause trouble for yourself.

The company will solve the endorsement problem.

As long as it is a big brand that is suitable for your development, most companies will not reject it. As for small brands and so on, don’t think about it yet.

At that time, it will be possible to consume your popularity, and it may not be worth the loss. In fact, the company will have dedicated people to do this. "

In fact, Ye Ming was also afraid that the five people in Happy Ode to Five Beauty might have some thoughts in their hearts. They thought that since they became popular, the company did not pay enough attention to the issue of endorsements. Therefore, he told them sincerely that being a star does not mean that the more endorsements, the better. OK

Of course, endorsements are mostly one-sided. A star without endorsements will naturally have no market, and his reputation will gradually decline.

But if there are too many endorsements and no choice, it will not work.

Therefore, celebrity endorsement is actually a very knowledgeable issue.

Let’s not talk about third- and fourth-tier stars. Basically, they are the kind who will definitely take over if they have endorsements.

Making money comes first. Even if I don’t have an endorsement, I will definitely get it if I have one.

But as a first-line star, it is inappropriate to do this. It depends on your own image and personality. If there is no conflict, then you will determine whether to endorse a product or something.

These all require professional people to do. As a star, you don't have to worry about these issues at all.

This is actually the benefit of the company. Although the company squeezes and exploits you, it has indeed planned many things for you. Just like the five beauties of Ode to Joy, this is the principle.

There are some small brands. If the quality is not good enough, it will be directly rejected by Huihuang Film and Television. It is impossible to accept this kind of endorsement.

Ye Ming wanted to cultivate a group of female celebrities to support the show, not the kind of boss who would just drain away the fame of Ode to Joy.

Ye Ming glanced at everyone and said: "The company is quite familiar with your situation. What each person endorses and what the five of you endorse together are all planned.

It is even said that Jiang Xin's endorsement is the least, which is also within the plan.

Because your personality, Jiang Xin, is a bit cool, so in a situation like this, it is more difficult to find a suitable advertisement. If it is an endorsement of jewelry, etc., it would be more suitable for you, or an evening dress.

But if you find an advertisement for children's products, it will conflict with your personality.

Think about it for yourself. If you take a group of children to shoot an advertisement, do you think the picture is suitable? "

Although Jiang Xinren is a bit childish, she has two characters, one is the second sister, and the other is the same. If this kind of persona is used well, it can attract fans very well.

In fact, Zhao Baozi took a similar route, but Zhao Baozi is the kind of cute and invincible. He was born with a cute bun face, which is the kind of situation that everyone loves.

There is also a situation where Jiang Xin’s character is cold and noble.

This kind of personality basically makes Jiang Xin talk less in front of the media.

This person is the kind of person who talks less and makes fewer mistakes, and talks more and makes more mistakes. Therefore, people in the company actually asked Jiang Xin to speak less in public, so that she could maintain her cool personality and make fewer mistakes.

Therefore, if Jiang Xin has this kind of personality, it will be more difficult to choose advertisements.

Generally speaking, relatively small and refreshing advertisements are not very suitable for Jiang Xin.

Therefore, her personality is not conducive to endorsement choices.

But that doesn't mean that Jiang Xin's popularity must be any lower than the other four.

Ode to Joy and Five Beauties is extremely popular. Under such circumstances, the company would choose advertisements for Jiang Xin at any cost. No matter what advertisement, as long as they paid for it, they would take over and shoot it.

When it comes to a question like this, Jiang Xin is definitely a soft-hearted person. But that would quickly consume Jiang Xin's popularity. Ye Ming did not recommend that the company do this.

The company will not use celebrities as one-time consumer goods, but will try its best to allow these celebrities to develop in the long term. Under such circumstances, Jiang Xin's advertisements are relatively few, which is understandable.

Hearing the boss's explanation, Jiang Xin could only shake her head helplessly: "It's really inappropriate."

What Ye Ming said was irrefutable.

Therefore, it is difficult to say how to deal with such a problem. It is unreasonable to blame the company.

Ye Ming then said to everyone in a serious voice: "If you all want to accept advertisements, the company will accept them for you without choosing. Then the company will make a lot of money in a short time, and you will also make a lot of money.

But in such a situation, this does not mean that you will be happy just because you make money. If you have so many advertising endorsements, it will consume your popularity.

Therefore, at this time, the company actually does not recommend that you do it this way. I suggest that the company choose ads for you. We will make reasonable arrangements for your development and will not waste all your efforts.

Brother Fei, tell them some other details about this matter. "

Only then did Hong Fei take out a document and said: "Among you, Jiang Xin has 200,000 yuan in endorsement fees that has not been recovered, and the others also have advertising fees ranging from 300,000 to 500,000 yuan.

In the name of Ode to Joy, you have 700,000 yuan in advertising fees that you have not recovered.

If you encounter this kind of arrears of advertising remuneration, it will be relatively difficult to deal with.

However, at this time, since the company helps you receive the advertisements, you should get these advertising fees, and the company will give them to you in advance.

This money is advanced to you by the company. "Although Ode to Joy has become extremely popular during this period.

But when it comes to a question like this, it doesn’t mean that Ode to Joy with five cents will necessarily lead to huge profits.

The company also made a lot of money, but less than half of it actually went to the actors. This is actually a relatively benevolent approach in the entertainment industry.

It is not uncommon for some companies to give artists 20 to 30%. For some artists in Korea, it is actually not impossible for the company to take 90%.

Those trainees are even more unlucky. Sometimes the company directly pays you some overtime wages and so on, which is already considered good.

At a time like this, Ye Ming's company can give almost half of it, which is considered to be very caring for everyone.

Of course, top artists can negotiate their share of the revenue, but ordinary artists do not have such a say. This money is actually not a big deal to Huihuang Film and Television.

But for these artists, there are more of them.

For example, Zhao Baozi wants to buy a house in the capital. The company provides it. The artist only needs to pay a certain percentage, which is much cheaper than the surrounding housing prices.

This is also a benefit of Brilliant Film and Television. Of course, only artists who have signed long-term contracts are eligible.

If the actor terminates the contract midway, the original price of the house will be recovered. These are all written in the contract.

However, the houses provided by Huihuang Film and Television to artists are in good locations and within the third ring road, which are very rare in Beijing.

Therefore, on such a question, we can see why the artists of Brilliant Film and Television still follow Ye Ming loyally.

Ye Ming knows how to cause trouble and win over people. This is a means.

Zhao Xiaodao raised his hand and said: "So, boss, the company paid us in advance, can the company still get the remuneration back?"

If the company loses money, Zhao Xiaodao would actually be a little bit intolerant.

After all, it is the company that promotes itself, so it seems a bit heartless to do so.

Ye Ming laughed and said: "Don't worry about this knife, I already have a plan for this matter.

In the entertainment industry, no one dares to default on the remuneration owed to our brilliant film and television artists.

Even if it is temporary, no one dares to permanently default on the remuneration of our artists, whether it is advertising or film and television dramas. "

Under normal circumstances, advertising endorsement fees are relatively large if they are paid directly, but if there is another agreement, it is an exception. (To be continued)
