Rebirth Enchanted Xiangjiang
Chapter 125
In the 1980s and 1990s, and even in the first few years after the millennium, before the mainland entertainment market rose, the crews that went to the mainland to film or co-produce in Hong Kong were always treated unfairly.
Of course, this also depends on the perspective from which it is viewed.
For the Hong Kong crew, the treatment they give to people from Hong Kong can’t be low, because it’s like that in Hong Kong. It’s just a different filming location in the mainland. What treatment should be paid, even if they run too far, the treatment will be improved accordingly. some.
For the mainland, in order to save money, they will naturally treat them according to the living standards of the mainland, which is normal for businessmen.
For example, Liu Xiaoqin, she earned dead wages when she was shooting the curtains and burning the Old Summer Palace, because she was from Beijing Film and was only assigned to the crew to film. It was a task. The salary was fifty yuan a month, one more. No points.
The Hong Kong crew can even earn fifty yuan a day for acting as a dead body, which is worth her one month's salary. But they are like a dragon, and her Liu Xiaoqin is a star in China.
Her salary is only fifty, and it is from Beijing Film. It is impossible for the crew to give other money, and also don't think too much of a dime.
The same thing happened to Li Lianjie. After Li Lianjie became a big star, he made a talk show. He said that he played the Shaolin Temple. After the Shaolin boy, he is already a well-known big star, not only in China, but also in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Southeast Asia. It is very famous, but when shooting the third movie North and South Shaolin, the salary was still three yuan a day, and it was the same price as the crew.
And the salary of three yuan a day was only two yuan more than one yuan a day when he photographed Shaolin Temple, and one yuan more than two yuan a day when he photographed Shaolin boys.
Becoming a big star means an extra one, two yuan, and the Hong Kong corpse is the same as Liu Xiaoqin’s encounter, which is fifty yuan a day.
However, Li Lianjie himself also said that the North and South Shaolins are different from the Shaolin Temple and the Shaolin Boys. The North and South Shaolins are dominated by Hong Kong. The mainland studios hired the Hong Kong director Liu Jiaxun. There are also many Hong Kong staff members. The Shaolin Temple and the North and South Shaolins filmed. At that time, only a Hong Kong director was hired, and there were basically no Hong Kong staff.
Now you can see the difference.
For the cast and crew in the Mainland, the same sentence is not to worry about being scarce but not to worry about unevenness.
But for people in Hong Kong, this is because the market is different.
Maybe a newcomer in Hong Kong can get hundreds of thousands of dollars for a movie, and the salary is tens of thousands. Just like Lin Qingxia's first movie in 1972, the heroine outside the window was filmed, and her salary was NT$10,000, equivalent to one Thousands and five hundred Hong Kong dollars.
This is much more than the mainland.
Let’s look at Zhong Chuhong. She made her first film in 1980. She was awarded a 10,000 Hong Kong dollars for the heroine.
It is also much more than the mainland.
But this is the market. When Lin Qingxia had an average salary of several hundred Taiwan dollars, the first time she played a leading role in a movie should be given that much money, and not much.
The same is true for Zhong Chuhong. In the years when the basic salary of Hong Kong is more than 1,000 Hong Kong dollars, the price of 10,000 Hong Kong dollars for a leading role is almost the same, not to mention that the Hong Kong sister is fourth.
In the years when the wages in the Mainland were tens of dollars, and the wages were three dollars a day according to the market conditions, Hong Kong felt that it was reasonable and no problem.
Li Lianjie said: "When we all get the same pay, if the main actors and extras are paid one dollar a day, then we have nothing to say, because we all work under a certain system. But if you bring it. A group of people from different systems, your Hong Kong crew earns 150,000 yuan a month, and even the extras who play dead bodies on the set are 50 yuan a day! They only give you 3 yuan a day. , And in fact, when they didn’t do anything, you started to discover this unequal treatment."
What the Hong Kong crew thinks is very reasonable,
Can it be said that Hong Kong is wrong? No. Can it be said that the mainland actors and the staff are wrong? Nor.
What's wrong is that the seat position is different, the regional economic environment of life, and the standard of living are different.
It is certainly possible to say that there is discrimination, but it is impossible to say that there is such a disparity in treatment because of discrimination.
Just like Qiao Feng's shooting in the mainland this time, he can give mainland workers the same food, clothing, housing and transportation as those in Hong Kong, but he will not and cannot pay them according to the market conditions in Hong Kong.
If that is the case, these mainland workers will definitely not have very good results when they return to their work units, and they will have to hand in their income, because they have made money that they shouldn’t make except wages.
Like Liu Xiaoqin, she can be troubled by chicken legs, and Qiao Feng will meet her request for eating and drinking as many chicken legs as equals, and even give her more chicken legs. But if she wants extra money, Qiao Feng will definitely not meet her.
Because you gave her money, it was Beiying behind her that offended her.
Therefore, to give Qian Qiaofeng will also be given to the local studio that assists in the cooperation, not to a specific cast member.
Unrealistic.
According to Liu Xiaoqin's status, according to the Hong Kong market, it is at least a 100,000 start-up salary, but Qiao Feng really gave her.
Of course, according to Liu Xiaoqin’s temperament that she would dare to evade taxes even if she wanted money, it’s really hard to say. But what if she took it, Beiying knew that she would either hand it in or take the money and be handled by Beiying, or maybe they were locked up. possible.
In the past ninety years when households with 10,000 yuan were envied by people, she made more than 100,000 yuan a year as an actor ten years earlier. That was not the way to make money but the way to do harm.
But for Huang Qiuyan who is acting as a substitute, Qiao Feng can give her a salary of several thousand or even tens of thousands a month, no problem, because she has joined Qiao Feng's company and is not in the mainland system.
"Come here, let’s talk about it. Ms. Liu felt unfair because Ms. Lin and I had an extra chicken leg during the meal. I was very upset in my heart. I was negligent about this. I shouldn’t do anything special. .Now I announce that from today onwards, Miss Lin and I will no longer engage in specialization, and we will eat the same as the creators in the future, ensuring that there are not many chicken legs."
After dinner, Qiao Feng called the main actors and staff from the mainland of Hong Kong together and solemnly announced the decision not to engage in specialization.
Of course, Qiao Feng was not forced to compromise by pressure, and people who listened would not think about it. On the contrary, everyone looked at Liu Xiaoqin weirdly, and Liu Xiaoqin's face blushed. Liu Xiaoqin.
In the future, no one will say that Qiao Feng’s is not, but Liu Xiaoqin, who will say that the boss and the heroine have an extra chicken leg, is not embarrassing to make trouble with others.
Of course, Qiao Feng is not just because he wants to embarrass Liu Xiaoqin, he also wants to let the crew present to publicize this matter. In the future, if Hong Kong and the Mainland can cooperate because of his precedent, he will treat it so equally. And it would be better if there were less unfairness that separated the two sides.
And if this news can reach Li Hanxiang's ears, maybe Li Hanxiang will not do too much when filming the curtains of Tingzheng and the burning of the Old Summer Palace. It will treat you too differently, or Liu Xiaoqin will kill you.
"By the way, let me inform you that tomorrow we will have a scene where we will eat mutton. Tell everyone that I will ask everyone to eat mutton after the filming tomorrow. Everyone will have it.
