City: Become a principal from junior college!

"Two million investment, 160 million net income."

"My students can really surprise me!"

In the principal's office.

Ye Chen was amazed at this unexpected profit.

After all, at the beginning, even Ye Chen thought the new thing short drama was quite interesting and optimistic about it.

But I didn't expect that the results would be so good.

My own students really have something.

"Okay, the money has arrived, and 50% of it will be used to establish a professional film and television creation fund."

"Students majoring in film and television who have creative needs in the future can apply for this creative fund."

“Commercialization is not mandatory, as long as it is a valuable creative project, you can apply.”

“No benefit has no impact.”

"If there is any profit, 50% of the profit will be added to the film and television creation fund, and the other half belongs to the students."

Ye Chen spoke first, confirming the ownership of half of the funds.

The film and television creation fund was mentioned before when we invested money for students to make short plays.

After all, the students at his Star Academy love to mess around so much.

I have only been in school for just over a semester and am about to film a short play.

Then when I'm in my second and third year, I won't necessarily want to shoot anything yet.

The college has been providing various funds to support students' creation.

It would be better to set up a creative foundation directly.

Relying on the level of his own students.

In addition, teachers will review applications for creative funds, and supervision will definitely take corresponding measures.

Ye Chen feels that the funds of this foundation will definitely increase.

Maybe one day, my foundation will be able to save tens of billions of funds.

In that case, maybe one day the students at school can rely on the foundation's money to directly produce a movie with a higher investment than Avatar.

In short.

Regarding the principal’s proposal to establish a film and television professional creation foundation.

Naturally, all the film and television teachers sitting here have no objections.

This is a good thing for the growth of film and television majors.

And it can also help them explore more creative fields.

You must know that if most film and television students in colleges want to invest some money in creating, they really need to ask their grandfather and grandma to get the money.

They even had to sign various unequal treaties.

But with this foundation in the film and television major of Xingchen College, students don’t have to go outside to ask for help.

In short, this foundation will have huge benefits for the development of the entire Xingchen film and television profession.

……

Regarding the Film and Television Creation Foundation, it was unanimously approved without any issues.

Ye Chen then talked about another issue.

This is also the main issue of today's meeting: "Next we have to talk about the distribution of money. Fifty percent will be used as a creative fund, and the remaining fifty percent will be distributed to all students who participate in the production of short plays."

"But the question is, how to divide it?"

Hearing this, all the teachers were slightly stunned.

How to divide?

Just divide it like that?

They didn't understand what their principal meant.

However, Teacher Zhou, the director of the film and television major, guessed what the principal meant and said, "What the principal means is that students from all classes have participated in the production. How much should the acting class get? How much should the directing class get? Others such as the screenwriting class , how many points should be divided into the later classes?"

After Teacher Zhou explained this, all the teachers understood.

Even distribution is definitely not possible.

If this is done, most students will inevitably be dissatisfied.

So a teacher said: "We might as well refer to industry practices to allocate them."

"Actors are definitely the most important, so the acting class takes the lead."

"Directing is also very important, as long as the share of the directing class is smaller than that of the acting class."

"The post-stage work is also important, and the post-stage class should also account for a larger share."

“The rest is given to students in the screenwriting, photography, props and makeup classes.”

What this teacher said attracted the approval of many teachers.

This is indeed industry practice.

Actors definitely get the big bucks. Although directors don't make as much as actors, they are still the second highest earners.

The later stage is also the bulk of the investment.

After that comes photography, logistics, props, screenwriting and so on.

In the film and television industry, it can be said that the income levels are extremely clear.

However, Ye Chen did not agree with this proposal and said calmly: "After all, the academy is not a real film and television industry."

"I think if the income gap between classmates is too large, it will affect cooperation and make each other dissatisfied."

"For example, photography students have to work hard carrying machines to shoot every day. But some students in the acting class who may have only filmed for one day have an income several times or even dozens of times theirs. Isn't it inappropriate?"

"For example, the screenwriter, who worked hard to come up with the script, can be said to be the parents of the show. However, when the money was divided, they got the least. Can they be mentally balanced?"

"So I think different classes can have differences based on their importance, but the difference cannot be too big." "Otherwise, a good thing like sharing money will also turn into a bad thing."

Ye Chen finished speaking.

All the teachers fell into deep thought.

What the principal said seems to make sense.

The external film and television industry does this because of capital promotion.

The actors and directors are the most important, and they deserve the most.

For other positions, the salary is the same.

What, you think it’s too little? Then get out of here.

If you don’t do it, others will!

This is the choice of capital.

But the creative environment within his own academy is completely different from the real film and television industry.

Students collaborate out of passion, not profit.

If you don’t make any money, it doesn’t matter if you don’t get any money in the end.

But if you make money in the end, everyone’s contribution will be no less or even more.

But just because you are a student in the acting class, you can get more than ten times our money.

That is indeed unfair.

Affect the relationship between students.

It may even lead to dissatisfaction and confrontation between classes.

It ultimately affects the atmosphere of cooperation within the entire film and television profession.

In this short drama shooting, almost all major students participated.

It’s a good start for cooperation.

If there is a disagreement over the distribution of money, then it will be a bad thing!

……

It can be said that this question really confused the teachers.

Even if they are either senior film and television teachers or have brilliant professional resumes.

But I couldn’t tell a specific solution for a while.

It's not like other film and television schools that have invested in students like Stars College.

But no other college's student creative projects can earn so much money.

So how to divide it specifically.

The teachers also had no clue for a while.

They finally understood why the principal had to hold a special meeting on this issue.

But despite being a new question.

But as long as it is discovered, it can always be solved.

After a whole afternoon of serious discussion, a group of teachers finally came up with a plan before dinner.

Performance accounts for 20 percent.

Screenwriters account for 15 percent.

Directors account for 15 percent.

Photography accounts for 15 percent.

The later period accounts for 15%.

Props and costumes account for 10%.

Logistics coordination related accounted for 10%.

This distribution ratio is carefully considered by the teachers.

Actors still get the most points, but being an actor, or at least being a good actor, does require talent.

They split more points, which is reasonable.

The following is to increase the importance of screenwriting, which accounts for the same share as director, photography, and post-production.

The last step is props, costumes and logistics coordination.

There is a gap in this score, but the gap is not too big.

Even though the acting class has the highest share, the overall income is only twice that of props and costumes.

The students will definitely be able to accept it and won’t be dissatisfied.

The overall share distribution is determined.

After that, when it comes to how to divide it individually, there is no need for Ye Chen to think about it.

Naturally, there are teachers in each class who make statistics.

Divide money according to contribution.

But Ye Chen still told the acting class teacher seriously.

There can be a gap in income between starring actors and supporting actors, but the gap cannot be several times greater.

In the outside world, the leading actors naturally earn the most.

The salary of some popular stars is higher than that of the rest of the crew combined.

It can be said that it is very common.

But within Star Academy, it is better not to have this situation happen. (End of chapter)
