CCTV invested a total of 170 million yuan to shoot "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and the salary of the male protagonist Tang Guoqiang for an episode was 250 yuan, and the salary of the crew + actors only accounted for 5% of the investment amount.
When director Wang Fulin first received the task of filming "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", he was a little scared.
Because it is one of the four famous works in China, not only the production must be excellent, but the actors' acting skills are also good. But the main problem is that to shoot 85 episodes, there will be a big hole in the funds, either expensive or shoddy.
At the beginning, Wang Fulin estimated that 1 episode would cost about 40w, but during the actual filming process, it was overspent by a full 1 times, that is, 80w an episode.
Fortunately, the CCTV leader expressed his stance, try to shoot as well as possible, and the funds can be exceeded. With the support of the gold lord's father, Wang Fulin began to take quality as the primary goal, where to spend money is not stingy, do not cause the quality of the work to decline because of the problem of money, which is not worth it.
According to media reports at the time, it cost almost 100 million yuan to build two live-action film and television bases alone, which was not a small amount in 1994 at that time.
But the flowers that should be spent, the places that should not be spent, Wang Fulin will never waste, such as in terms of human resources, the salary of the crew and actors, and the budget is very limited.
The salary of the male number one Tang Guoqiang is 250 yuan for the first episode, and the salary for the male number two episode is about 180 yuan, and the salary of the two main actors is only about 2w yuan after the whole drama is filmed. Compared with the sky-high salaries of stars now, it is really a small witch!
At that time, the filming environment was still very bad, 4 actors lived in a room, sleeping place for 2.5 yuan per night, and ash fell from above when shaking.
The actor Sun Yanjun, who played "Liu Bei", recalled an interesting story during the filming process, saying that at that time, the crying scene was rehearsed several times, and his stomach was hungry quickly, so he had to go to the field to throw a few corns to eat, but unexpectedly he was caught by the farmer, and the second and third brothers who walked with him ran faster than rabbits, and disappeared as soon as they slipped a cigarette.
Although the filming environment in the entertainment industry is constantly improving, and the environment is hundreds of times better, the professionalism and dedication of the actors have not increased and retreated. If your finger is scratched, you will market how dedicated you are, and if you can cry out in a crying scene, you will praise the actor for acting.
When did the actor's requirements become so low? It turns out that the inclusiveness of fans has become greater! #Highlight scenes in film and television dramas ##娱评大赏 #
