Xiao Cui used to be the most popular host on CCTV, not even one of them.
Later it became "Cui Hua Na".
I won’t discuss it here, but let’s talk about his relationship with “Cell Phone”. When Feng Pengtong was planning to make a movie, he specifically asked Xiao Cui for advice. He even made dumplings for Xu Fan at home, and Xiao Cui also imparted his experience without reservation.
Because Ge You plays a host named Yan Shouyi, and the program is called "One Story, One Story".
This style is very reminiscent of Xiao Cui and "To Tell the Truth", and Yan Shouyi is a cheating scumbag. After the movie was released, the public naturally associated him with Xiao Cui, which caused him a lot of trouble.
As a result, the two sides formed a rift.
Feng Tongtong was filming "Mobile Phone 2" again, but Xiao Cui also failed to communicate, and angrily posted: "Feng is a scumbag. Everyone knows that Liu Zhenyun turned into a scumbag a little faster."
He also released screenshots of his conversation with Liu Zhenyun, asking Liu Zhenyun if he wrote the script for "Mobile Phone 2", and expressed how much the movie "Mobile Phone" had hurt him.
After posting on Weibo, neither Feng Pants nor Liu Zhenyun responded.
Xiao Cui waited for a few days and continued to post on Weibo, scolding Xu Fan, Liu Zhenyun's daughter, etc., but there was still no reply, which made netizens very disgusted.
"Are you so glass-hearted?"
"I watched "Mobile Phone" back then, and although I thought of you, I didn't pay attention to your news at all."
"That is, you are treating yourself as a star and are being persecuted delusional?"
Seeing these comments, and seeing that "Mobile Phone 2" was pretending to be an ostrich until the filming was over, Xiao Cui decisively transformed into a mad critic, switched the firepower, and began to attack Fan Xiaopang like crazy.
"When promoting in other places, at least one Mercedes-Benz sedan and one luxury Buick seven-seater business car are required, and the air ticket standard is first class. If the filming location is in another place, the accommodation standard is that the artist and agent live in a five-star luxury business suite.
If dining at the hotel cannot be arranged during filming, the standard meal fee for the artist is 1,500 yuan/day."
"The remuneration of his exclusive makeup artist is as high as 80,000 yuan, and the makeup artist does not do makeup for other people. This fee is paid by the film company."
"You have the right to refuse any unapproved looks, and you have the right to make suggestions and modifications to the film and script. If you fall ill during the filming, the film studio will bear all the medical expenses, etc..."
These are just big names at best.
The real fatal blow was, of course, the exposure:
"The 10 million salary is only part of the film. She actually signed two contracts, one big and one small. The small contract that is not afraid of exposure is worth tens of millions, and the other hidden big contract is worth 50 million. In other words, she won one movie
60 million yuan in salary!”
This is the incident that changed the history of the mainland entertainment industry and is known as the "Yin Yang Contract" in history.
Fan Xiaopang couldn't sit still and wrote repeatedly to refute: "The public release of confidential contracts not only violates business rules, but is also suspected of infringing on the legitimate rights and interests of the parties involved. The act of spreading rumors is suspected of constituting defamation."
Xiao Cui continued to fire concentratedly despite this.
Then, the incident took a sudden turn in a direction that the parties involved may not have thought of: they earned 60 million, but only reported 10 million in taxes, which was suspected of being illegal. Many official accounts followed up, and the tax bureau also stated that it would investigate strictly.
At this point, the storm is coming.
Looking back at this past event, there is always one question: Xiao Cui claimed to have a drawer of contracts, and these contracts were all provided to him by others.
So who gave it to him?
There are only two situations: either he is the messenger of justice and hopes that he will be exposed; or he is the opponent of Huayi, Feng Pants and Fan Xiaopang and hopes to kill someone with a borrowed knife.
No matter what, it was already out of control.
The commotion was so big that the official position had to be expressed, and the policy that had been waiting for a long time was quickly released:
"Strengthen the management of sky-high remuneration, yin and yang contracts, tax evasion and other issues in the film and television industry... The total remuneration of all actors and guests in each movie, TV series, and online audio-visual program shall not exceed 40% of the total production cost, and the remuneration of the main actors shall not exceed
70% of the total remuneration.”
It looks okay, but it doesn't work that way in practice.
In the past, 10 million was given to the protagonist and 5 million to the supporting role. Now it is still 10 million to the protagonist, but only 2 million is given to the supporting role. Why? Lower the overall standard.
Or, give the protagonist 5 million, hire the protagonist as an art consultant, and give another 5 million as a remuneration. The art consultant is not included in the salary.
This is called: there are policies from above and countermeasures from below.
In short, domestic salary restrictions have been tossing and turning, and finally the limit has been reduced to a feather. Top stars should still make money, and the income of the lower class has plummeted...
…………
Fan Xiaopang is deeply involved in the whirlpool. The tax bureau has begun an investigation and everyone is in danger.
While waiting for the results, the entertainment industry first made a statement in response to all the chaos.
The leader of Dragon TV: "In 2016 alone, the salary of first- and second-tier actors increased by nearly 250%. In some IP dramas that rely heavily on traffic idols, the proportion of star salary in the production cost soared to 75%!
"
Song Dandan: "Young idols are comparing the number of makeup artists and assistants. I was filming a scene with two popular young boys. The one who arrived early was waiting in the parking lot and insisted on letting others in first. It seemed that the ones who came in later seemed more sophisticated."
Screenwriter Gao Mantang: "I attended the Chinese TV Drama Quality Ceremony. The party lasted for three hours. Some young stars started to contact each other during the awarding process and left after receiving the awards. But Li Xuejian sat until the end of the party.
At that time, Yang Lan asked, Teacher Li, why are you still here?
Li Xuejian said, the audience didn’t leave!
This is the most basic human question. As the protagonist of the party, he walked away before the party was over. How can he be worthy of the audience who came to criticize us? Every time Zhang Guoli and I talk about this issue, we really want to cry.
A..."
Followed closely.
Three video websites and six film and television companies, including iQiyi, Youku, Tencent Video, Noon Sunshine, Huace Film and Television, jointly issued a statement:
"A single actor's single-episode remuneration (including tax) shall not exceed 1 million yuan, and his total remuneration (including tax) shall not exceed 50 million yuan!"
Just listen to this.
But at this moment, it undoubtedly caters to this wave of popularity, and netizens are applauding it.
And everyone discovered, why are the wheat grains not inside?
Maili immediately posted on Weibo:
"The remuneration we give is notoriously low. We don't look at the people when it comes to dramas, we don't look at the quality of the show, we don't look at the stars if we love acting... In all the TV series so far, no one is paid more than RMB 600,000 per episode, and no drama series has exceeded this number.
50 episodes…what are we claiming?”
…………
The former king of traffic, Fan Xiaopang, who wished he could dominate the hot search list every minute, seemed to have disappeared from the world after his self-explosion. He even celebrated his birthday quietly. Last year, Li Shitou, who showed off his love and sent blessings with great fanfare, was not at all.
No representation.
He was deemed a scumbag by netizens and was ridiculed again.
And just in the midst of this commotion, there is finally news about Fan Xiaopang, who has disappeared for a long time!
Fan Xiaopang issued an apology statement and retired from the mainland.
There is no more glamor on the red carpet, only ordinary female stars are on the rise.
The official attitude is: "Those who seriously conduct self-examination and self-correction before the end of December 2018 and take the initiative to pay back taxes will be exempted from administrative penalties and will not be fined."
