Chapter 159 Disturbance

Whether to stay in the system to live a stable life or leave the system to work hard, this is not only a matter that Lin Zixuan and Feng Xiaogang are considering, but also something that practitioners in the entertainment industry are considering.

Times have changed. People in the past value dedication, while people in the present value interests.

The craze for the whole nation to go into the sea is in full swing. In the south, wealth myths are born every day. Most of the things we meet and talk about are ways to make money, as well as all kinds of real and fake news.

People in the entertainment industry are originally a group of restless guys who are eager to transform their abilities into wealth.

In the 1980s, actors frantically made extra money around the country, thus living a good life.

Big stars like Liu Xiaoqing also started companies and used their reputation to make money. They had at least hundreds of thousands of dollars in their hands. They were the ones who became rich in advance in the Chinese film and television industry.

Now it’s finally the turn of the creators behind the scenes, and the documents of the General Administration are equivalent to loosening these people.

Taking Feng Xiaogang as an example, he achieved great success in filming "The People of Beijing in New York", but it is not considered a fame and fortune. He has a reputation, but he can only earn a few hundred yuan a month and a year-end bonus of 500 yuan.

He will feel that his efforts and income are not proportional to his income and do not reflect his own value.

If he starts a business, attracts investment, shoots a successful TV series, and sells the copyright, then he may earn tens of thousands of yuan or even hundreds of thousands of yuan, which is difficult to refuse.

Of course, without the support of the art center resources, he has great risks and there is a possibility of failure.

This is the current situation faced by everyone in the entertainment industry. There are huge risks when leaving the system, and you are unwilling to leave the system.

In the next February and March, friends in the Beijing entertainment industry will talk about the same topics when they meet. Are you leaving?

This does not mean divorce, but rather means leaving the system. With the strong intervention of private capital, some people are preparing to go out for a while, while others are still hesitating and waiting, and people's hearts are floating.

Lin Zixuan could feel the air with a sense of impetuousness. When the people's hearts disperse, the team was difficult to lead.

The Art Center encountered the same problem. Some screenwriters and behind-the-scenes staff were about to leave. They could get twice the salary outside, and various dividends were also paid quite generously.

Such things are not uncommon in the south. Private enterprises use high salaries to poach, and state-owned enterprises have suffered serious loss of technical personnel.

This time, it was the turn of the entertainment industry.

Beijing TV Art Center has become a key target for private capital to poach. Although the center has only been established for two years, it has produced a number of excellent TV series, which has strong production capabilities in state-owned TV series production units.

People outside cannot understand the things in the circle and think that the behind-the-scenes production staff who poached the center can copy the successful model of the center.

Feng Xiaogang knew very well that the Art Center could achieve such good results had a lot to do with Lin Zixuan.

This does not mean that other staff members are incapable. They are all Lin Zixuan working. In fact, Lin Zixuan doesn’t do much.

But the film and television industry is quite special. It belongs to artistic creation. The core is to have good stories. With the joint efforts of the team behind the scenes, we can create excellent TV series.

"They dug the wrong person, so they should dig Xiaolin directly. One Xiaolin can support the troops of another division." Feng Xiaogang joked.

"Don't say that, I'm so overwhelmed by them. If these people continue to do this, our lives will be difficult for us. The production cost alone will be doubled by them." Lin Zixuan said depressedly.

The entry of private capital has brought about many changes. It would be better if you were insiders, at least you knew the rules.

It’s too messy for outsiders. They have funds in their hands and wave checks, thinking that if they have money, they can make money TV series, spend money to hire big directors and big stars, and the pay for actors has increased exponentially.

An actor like Chen Xiaoyi paid 200 yuan for one episode when filming "The Foreign Girl", and after becoming famous, the pay was about 600 yuan for one episode. Now someone offered a pay of 1,200 yuan for one episode to ask her to film.

The actors' pay is becoming more and more important in production costs.

"Desire", which used to spend 1 million to shoot 50 episodes, is good now for TV series that can shoot 20 episodes. The market in the entire film and television industry has been ruined by these outsiders.

However, these people will soon know the price of breaking the rules.

They will find that the film and television dramas shot by the production team that were dug up to a lot of money were not as good as they thought, or that they were not good at all and were cheated.

Moreover, they couldn't find a way to sell the TV series, so they could only smash it into their own hands and compensate them.

This is the tuition fee that outsiders have to pay for entering the venue.

After this lesson, some people will leave, and some people will calm down and slowly manage various relationships.

However, the impact caused by this group of people is difficult to eliminate. As long as the salary increases, it will be difficult to reduce it.

In fact, the people in the circle are really the ones who can make a difference. They understand this industry and know how to operate it. Many people have also learned from the operating model of "The People in Beijing in New York".

Through patch advertising, we can attract advertisers to sponsor, or take the path of bank loans to raise funds to shoot films and TV series.

This period of time has been a lot of trouble, and there are new things in the Beijing entertainment industry every day.

Similarly, someone called Lin Zixuan and wanted to dig him over. The price offered was not low, but he refused.

At this time, the overall environment of the entire film and television industry is too chaotic. Although it can certainly take the lead after the situation early, it may also be swept by big waves. Laying a solid foundation is more important than seizing the lead, and it is better to be more stable.

Lin Zixuan has this kind of personality, not being rash, not radical, and moving forward steadily.

What he is now busy with is the site selection of the film and television base. The General Administration has approved this project and allocated 3 million as construction funds. The art center invested 2 million, and the total initial investment reached 15 million.

The General Administration provides policy support, the Art Center is the business entity, and Shi Cheng investor shares dividends.

To be honest, 15 million is not a big project, but this is just the first phase of the film and television base. After the first phase of the project is completed and put into use, Lin Zixuan will also attract investment and build the second phase of the project.

With the gradual prosperity of the Chinese film and television industry, it is not difficult for this film and television base to develop.

Lin Zixuan and some engineers engaged in architectural planning drove around the suburbs of Beijing. They should choose a place with beautiful natural scenery, preferably mountains, water and convenient transportation.

At this time, there was no major development around the capital, and the land price was cheap.

According to the plan, this film and television base requires at least thousands of acres of land and may expand in the future.

They finally set their address in Huairou area in the suburbs of Beijing, which is the Huairou Film and Television Base in Beijing. (To be continued.)
