The word "star" in the eyes of the public means high salary, high appearance, and directly linked to the so-called glamorous level. However, most of the stars seen by the public are already famous head artists, and this industry, like 359 other industries, has people standing at the top of the pyramid and mostly unknown people at the bottom.
GNZ48 and SNH48 are both from the SNH48 group, although there is a group of loyal fans, small idols dressed beautifully on the stage to sing and dance, but this circle is still relatively small to the public vision, and those small idols are actually the bottom staff of the entertainment industry. GNZ48 members' self-disclosure salary allows everyone to see the current situation of low-level entertainers, breaking the public's consistent impression of high-paying occupations of celebrities.
Member Yang Yuanyuan directly revealed that her monthly salary was only 540.96 yuan, and ridiculed herself as a divine operator. The monthly income of 500 yuan is not to say that it is a star, it is low among ordinary people, and it is not as high as the salary of restaurant waiters. Another member, Chen Nanxi, ridiculed herself for not being as high as the bottom salary of the downstairs dishwasher, saying that she had mixed feelings and could not afford to pay the tuition fee for the dance vocal music class.
Other members Fu Bingbing and Xu Huiling all lamented that the salary is not as high as the accommodation fee refunded by the university, and it is not as good as the university living expenses, and even the current salary is 500 yuan less than the first salary of the group.
The salaries of such female group members are actually divided into several parts, mainly from the cost of public performances, as well as the withdrawals on fan apps, of course, including the "attendance award" of the ordinary people's salary component. However, this attendance award and everyone's punch card to work is not late, member Ye Shuqi revealed that full attendance includes not asking for leave, not being late, and normally releasing multiple social platforms.
GNZ48 members of the self-exposure salary quickly attracted the attention of netizens, everyone was shocked by the monthly income of 500 yuan, thinking that such a salary is not as good as handing out flyers, it is simply a waste of youth. However, the reason why Yang Yuanyuan's salary is only more than 500 yuan is because she only did one performance this month to make her income plummet.
However, the low salary of the domestic women's group is not the first time it has been concerned, and the more popular sister group SNH48 has previously exposed its own salary, which is also very low. Member Wang Feiyan lamented that the tax deduction was more than she earned, and in the end she became a volunteer labor.
Dai Meng, who participated in "Youth with You 2" and became very popular, also lamented that the salary was too low before this, and joked that he might have to sell his cat. However, before participating in the show, Dai Meng was already a highly popular member of the team, ranking in the top 10 in the total election, and even her salary was not high, proving that this was the norm for snh48.
According to member Faye wong, the costumes, choreography, shoes, and accessories on the stage are all paid by themselves, but the cost of the idols' performances is naturally not low, but the salary is not high, which makes them worse off in the first place.
Not only that, they only had a 120 yuan reimbursement and a 20 yuan lunch subsidy for eating and living a day on a business trip, and sometimes they had to face a deduction of wages, and Chen Meijun, a member of bej48, was deducted 3,000 yuan in wages.
The members of snh48 are paid so low that many people can't support themselves with this job. Many little idols are actually their own side jobs, or use this job as a side job. Member Chen Jiaying is actually a nurse, in 2013 it was difficult to be selected as a second-term student to participate in the performance debut, at that time she was an intern nurse, but the idol job did not let her give up her profession, 6 years insisted on taking care of both professions.
For the difficult living conditions of snh48, some people will say that it is better to give up since this is so good, but in reality, since it has stepped into the door of Siba Media, it is not so easy to go out. Siba Media is scolded by idol fans for inaction on a daily basis, but the company's legal team is particularly strong.
After ju jingyi and Li Yitong became popular, they were still siba artists, and the other two huang tingting and Zhao Jiamin, who had broken off their contracts, were also facing the situation of being banned. On December 20, 2019, Huang Tingting officially sent a lawyer's letter to Siba to terminate the contract, after which Siba responded without knowing it. After that, netizens broke the news that Siba sued Huang Tingting, but more than 10 months have passed, huang Tingting and Siba's termination storm has no official follow-up information, Huang Tingting's social account has been recycled by the company, and the program recording has also stagnated and disappeared from the public vision.
Zhao Jiamin was once a top member of snh48, but in 2016, after Zhao Jiamin was admitted to the Chinese opera, it was rumored that he would retire from the team, and the social account was stopped updating, and Siba responded that Zhao Jiamin was still in the contract. In September 2017, Zhao Jiamin and Si Ba's lawsuit was held, but since then, Zhao Jiamin has not successfully returned to the show business circle.
However, from the stagnation of Huang Tingting and Zhao Jiamin's current acting career, it can be seen that Siba is indeed powerful, and she will quit the group without waiting for graduation, and there is a high probability that it will be delayed because of the lawsuit. Therefore, even if the salary given by Siba is low, the members can only complain that it is difficult to leave the team smoothly.
