Chapter 185 Small Circle 3/3
Several Chinese-language dramas on Netflix, such as "The Lights Come on" and "Low" became popular, and it was the rise of little stars in the 1980s...
I don’t dare to take pictures yet!
Who doesn’t know that Taiwan’s entertainment industry is the plaything of gangsters?
By the way, the Wanwan film and television industry is really rubbish!
In terms of movies, with the Huitai gift package, Wanwan Movies can enjoy the same treatment as mainland movies. They will not be treated as foreign films and will not be subject to import control. As long as a company is willing to introduce them, they can enter mainland theaters after passing the review and enjoy the rights to mainland movies.
Equal share ratio.
Equivalent to a market of 1.4 billion!
On the other hand, the lottery system for mainland movies is tantamount to rejecting the release of mainland movies...
Even so, the market is still half-dead - equivalent to Hollywood's dumping ground...
Not to mention that "The Lights Are Coming" is awesome, the click-through rate of "The Lights Are Coming" is not as good as "Let's Try the World" purchased by Netflix in the second round.
The click-through rate of "Let's Try the World" is much higher than that of "The Lights Are Coming" - Official data from Netflix!
The mainland now has many restrictions on film and television dramas, including time travel, rebirth, costumes, ghosts, gore, etc. There are restrictions on filming...
Many high-quality ideas cannot be presented...
The Hong Kong branch does not have these worries!
The second round of "Forbidden Girl" airs on TVB...
The ratings are not very high, but the discussion is quite high.
The reason why Yang Xiaomi asked was similar to that of Donnie Yen before, to use Netflix channels to expand her popularity...
But it's a pity that Shen Changlin personally took charge of the Netflix cooperation. Except for Huang Baigao, no one knew that the next drama "Others Are Hell" was going to be filmed, and Wen Zhaolun was cast as the villain...
…
"Actually, Tengxun also intends to expand externally..."
"Is it difficult?"
"I don't know. Anyway, we can just put on a show with peace of mind!"
Shi Shi only knew a rough idea.
These are battles among streaming media. Acton is targeting Southeast Asia and Youku is moving to Europe, America and South Korea...
Yang Xiaomi interjected: "The platform is so powerful now. After the salary limit order, the platform began to develop artist management business and signed sub-contracts with waist actors..."
"Well, if you don't sign it, it won't be broadcast!"
"Not only that, we also need to use their people..."
Waist actors refer to actors who have no fame, traffic or commercial endorsements, and their salary constitutes their entire personal income.
Domestic entertainment relies on three film and television platforms to dominate the world, almost monopolizing the entire market. If actors want to film, they can't rely on their own professional abilities, nor can they rely on brokerage companies. They must form in-depth cooperation with the platforms.
Why do the three major platforms dominate the world?
Thanks to Xiaopang - the country has issued documents one after another to regulate industry chaos, including salary limit orders. This has caused a large number of capital withdrawals, star companies have been cancelled, and the number of film and television dramas has decreased...
Not only that, but a lot of things happened after that, including the difficulty in getting TV series to star, the difficulty in censorship of theatrical movies, and a large number of film and television dramas that could only be broadcast online.
After the two-star policy for one drama in 2015, online platforms reaped dividends again.
Then the cold winter period lasted until 2019. I thought it was almost over, but then it caught up with Yiqing...
Online platforms have completely become the mainstream place to watch movies. Film studios don’t want their films to be backlogged, so they can only find platforms.
This is when the sub-contract was proposed!
If you don't cooperate, there will be no filming. If you don't use my people, I won't buy your drama...
Of course, there are exceptions…
You are like the sun at noon, but you don’t have a bird’s eye view...
Qin Lan obviously didn't understand this very well: "A contract?"
"All income, including actors' remuneration, will be distributed to the platform according to a certain proportion. This proportion is generally more than 30%..."
For a big IP web drama produced by the platform, one man and one woman will naturally be the top actors. Starting from the third man and the third woman, the salary will not exceed 500,000.
If it is a smaller production, it will not exceed 300,000.
500,000 and 300,000 are not one person's salary, but the total number.
That's right, all actors are treated equally among top performers!
The contract must be divided with the platform first, then the brokerage company, taxes must be paid, and the rest belongs to the actor.
There is a salary limit order! The salary is limited to the middle and lower levels.
Therefore, if the idols who debuted in the talent show organized by the platform cannot become idols, they can become actors - they have all signed sub-contracts!
Therefore, Yang Chaoyue would say, 'It's too difficult to be a singer and dancer, so I'll just act...'
"Did you sign it?"
Yang Xiaomi shook her head: "I didn't sign..."
Shi Shi smiled: "It would be too embarrassing for us to sign a sub-contract at our level! But the company's first three dramas must be famous and let them take the lead..."
"Detective Jane" and "I'm Waiting for You in the Future" are all copyrighted dramas...
What is a copyright drama?
It is a star drama for TV stations.
When one drama had two stars, the platform offered high prices to these copyrighted dramas in order to expand the market.
Now that the monopoly pattern has been established, copyrighted dramas have become the most unpopular, and the three major platforms will join forces to lower prices.
Unless the quality of the series is particularly outstanding...
"The Mist" and "Love Broken Chocolate" are customized dramas, exclusively customized by Bilibili...
Yang Xiaomi suddenly sighed: "It would be great if we had our own broadcast channel!"
Shi Shi was surprised: "You mean the video platform?"
"Yes, make it yourself, broadcast it yourself..."
"...I guess Chang Lin should have thought about it, but he didn't do it. Maybe the conditions are not mature yet!"
"I just said it casually..."
Qin Lan interrupted: "Stop chatting, let's finish the SPA and go sing?"
"…Alright."
Shi Shi took out his cell phone: "Do you want to call a few people?"
"Shout a few, the more people there are, the more lively it will be..."
"Then I call Liu Yan and Tianbao..."
"Is Liu Yan in the capital?"
"Should be there...but Tianbao may not be there..."
Yang Xiaomi said: ""The Beneficiary" is really good!"
…
"The Beneficiary" is indeed good. This good refers to Liu Yan's good performance...
The movie itself has some polarizing reviews, and the box office is not great either...
The cost is 80 million, and the box office is only 320 million!
Of course it was profitable, but... there was still a big gap from the expected 500 million...
The biggest problem is probably the director’s lack of experience.
There are no surprises in the plot - the male protagonist kills his wife and defrauds her bail but still has a conscience. In the process of stumbling along the way, he gradually develops a true relationship with the heroine. The tragedy does not happen, the bad guy gets his comeuppance, and it is a happy ending that everyone is happy with.
Secondly, it is difficult to be too detailed in the scam aspect, which leads to a lack of logic and the ancestor part is unsatisfactory. No matter how well the other parts are shot, it is destined not to become a popular film.
But Liu Yan acted so well!
Especially that live broadcast scene - she wiped off her makeup, no makeup, and said goodbye to fans with her true side, restrained and full, real and sincere, especially the sentence "I am 38 years old", combined with Liu Yan's
The 39-year-old Buyi Jiji can be said to be wonderful in the style of "human and drama combined"!
In the original time and space, Liu Yanneng was nominated for the Golden Rooster Award for "The Beneficiary", and he deserved it!
Yang Xiaomi asked about the casting of "The Beneficiary", and Liu Yan did not hide anything: "I still have to thank Chang Lin. He told the director that I was suitable, so the director found me. Originally, he wanted to find other actresses!"
Chapter completed!
