Chapter 1473 1475 [Capital Influx]

Entering [-], the mainland's TV drama market continued to expand.

On the one hand, the advertising revenue of TV stations is getting higher and higher. In the early 90s, the combined advertising revenue of TV stations across the country was less than 53 million.Now CCTV's annual advertising expenses have reached [-] billion.

With more advertising revenue, there will naturally be money to produce programs.Therefore, in recent years, the TV drama production center has launched many large-scale drama series, such as the [-] edition of "Water Margin", "The Decisive Battle of China's Destiny" in [-], "Top Gun" in [-], and "Taiping Heavenly Kingdom", etc. Wait.

In addition to producing programs by themselves, they are naturally more willing to spend money on external procurement of episodes.Four years ago, when Xiang Nan cooperated with CCTV, a series cost only tens of thousands of yuan.

Now the price of an episode has risen to more than 15.High-quality episodes can even sell for more than [-].

On the one hand, the influx of capital has also increased the cost of actors' remuneration and production.

In the early 90s, the dramas were all filmed by state-run TV stations, and the actors were all seconded by state-run units.Therefore, the wages are very low, not much different from ordinary workers.When Zhu Lin was filming "Longing", the salary for an episode was only a few dozen yuan.

But now, stars like Qin Hailu, Jiang Qinqin, Chen Hao, and Duan Yihong have paid up to 30 episodes.If you make a movie, the salary will start at 50 to [-] yuan, which is hundreds of times higher than before.

Fortunately, they also have an internal discount for filming Kylin Films.Otherwise, Xiang Nan would not be willing to use them.

……

However, although the market size is large, business is not easy to do.

The reason is that there are too many people who come to grab the cake, and the competition becomes more intense and disorderly.

For example, some companies have no production experience, and they rely entirely on following trends in filming.When the dramas of the Republic of China became popular, they made the dramas of the Republic of China; when the dramas of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law became popular, they made dramas of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law;

Kylin Films is also the most heavily copied because of its blockbuster TV series every year.

Kylin Films released "Da Ranfang", and someone made "Dajiufang"; Kylin Films made "Iron Teeth Bronze Teeth Ji Xiaolan", and soon someone filmed "Fengliu Talent Ji Xiaolan"; Kylin Films made "Crossing the Guandong", Someone filmed "Crossing the Guanxi"...

In addition, it is stealthily poaching.

Kylin Films has Xiang Nan in charge, one good drama after another, so the star-making speed is also extremely fast.A TV series or a movie can make many people popular.

And those film and television drama companies have just been established and have no experience, so they want to pick ready-made fruits.Use the fame of those big stars to sell dramas.

Therefore, Kylin Films, which has a large number of stars, has become the coveted object of these ghosts and snakes.

Of course, they dare not poach people by force on the surface, but they can't stop them from poking hard secretly.Contact those stars privately and try to poach them with high prices.

As for celebrities, most of them are greedy for money, and only a small part of them don't love fame and wealth.Therefore, under their instigation, many celebrities have the idea of ​​wanting to change jobs.

For example, Jin Qiaoqiao became famous for playing Jin Suo in "Huan Zhu Ge Ge". Although her follow-up development is not as good as Qin Hailu and Jiang Qinqin, she is still popular in the entertainment industry.

She just wanted to change jobs to other companies, because she felt that she was not valued enough in the company.

After "Huan Zhu Ge Ge", Qin Hailu successively filmed "Oath of Silence", "Da Dye Fang", "Like Fog, Like Rain and Like Wind" and so on, firmly ranking as the first-line actress in the TV drama industry.

After "Huan Zhu Ge Ge", Jiang Qinqin filmed "Qianmen Louzi Jiuzhangjiu", "Kangxi Weifu Private Interview", "Yongzheng Dynasty", "Liancheng Jue" and so on.

Even Zhang Ziyi and Chen Hao, who joined the company later than her, have successively starred in popular film and television dramas such as "Never Close My Eyes", "My Father and Mother", and "Endless".

On the other hand, although she is not short of filming, most of them are supporting roles, playing roles like the second female lead, and her development is not as good as other sisters.

In the entertainment industry, there has always been a saying that it is better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail.It is better to be the leader of a small company than to be the bottom of a large company.

Especially for a star like her who is famous, has acting skills, and has good looks, she is considered a base in Kylin Films, but in other companies, she is likely to be the first sister, so she was persuaded and proposed to the company. terminate the contract.

……

After Xiang Nan received the news, he immediately offered a condition.

If you want to terminate the contract early, you can compensate the company for losses according to the contract, starting from 1000 million.

Jin Qiaoqiao was frightened at once.Although she has made money in the past two years, it is only two or three million. 300 million so much, how can she afford to pay.

The company that originally wanted to poach her did not dare to poach again when they saw that they would lose so much money.After all, 1000 million is not a small amount for them.

Therefore, Jin Qiaoqiao's job-hopping matter ended without a problem, and she could only continue to work in the company obediently for ten years.

In fact, Xiang Nan didn't think much of Jin Qiaoqiao, so he didn't want her to leave.

At the beginning, the company signed Jin Qiaoqiao because she had already filmed "My Fair Princess" and gained a certain reputation.And "Han Zhu Ge Ge 2" still wants to use the original cast.

If not, Xiang Nan would never sign her.

He is offering sky-high compensation now, but he just doesn't want to set a bad precedent.

Because the artists signed by Kylin Films are all artists he is very optimistic about, have great potential, and will definitely become popular, so each one is priceless.

If they don't intervene and are poached away at will, then Kirin Pictures will suffer a great loss.That's why he had to guard against the incipient, and kill their idea of ​​job-hopping while it was still in its infancy.

Therefore, Xiang Nan not only offered a sky-high termination fee.Moreover, after Jin Qiaoqiao dismissed her idea of ​​job-hopping, she lowered her salary by several levels.

Although she played a female supporting role before, she was also a good role.Afterwards, when the company started filming again, the ones assigned to her were either the third or fourth female, or the female villain.Always playing this kind of role, the grade quickly dropped.

In addition, he also helped her reject all external film contracts, commercial performances, commercials, and endorsements. As a result, her income dropped sharply.

In the past, just commercial performances, advertisements, and endorsements could earn 200 million a year.Now it's not bad to earn 20 a year.

With such a good example as a role model, other artists who were about to make a move now dare not mention this matter again.After all, they don't have 1000 million.

……

In 2000, Xiang Nan successively sold the stocks of software companies he held.Especially Yahoo, America Online, Netease, Souar and the like.

Because he knew that in 2000, the Internet bubble was about to burst.At that time, the stocks of all Internet companies will plummet.

Even for potential companies like EBAY and Amazon, the stock price will fall by more than half, so it is the right way to cash out and leave the market early.
