The current stars also break through the lower limit of aesthetics, right?
Especially costume dramas, it can be said that "ugly men run rampant".
Therefore, many netizens miss the previous "coal boss aesthetic" and complain that the current capital vision is too poor.
Some netizens even joked that if the entertainment industry regressed 20 years, it would be a great thing for the majority of audiences.
However, as stars have turned into "capital" one after another, the era of entertainment industry controlled by coal bosses may only be gone forever.
With investment, side business, and company opening, stars have long been rid of the fate of "superstars before people and playthings after people".
Even, they have enough voice to praise new people according to their own wishes.
01, the actor is arbitrarily changed roles, public scolding industry chaos
"Coal boss" is not just a joke from netizens, screenwriter Wang Hailin has also publicly stated that he misses the era of "coal boss" film and television investment.
He posted on the social platform: "I entered the industry from 1997 to about 2010, with coal bosses and real estate developers as the main investors, the TV drama industry is profitable! I barely met anyone who made a TV series lose money before '05. ”
He believes that this phenomenon mainly depends on the "coal boss" respecting the profession and never interfering with the creation of the crew, "The various investors I have experienced, the best is the coal boss, they have no other requirements than to ask for an actress." ”
This remark caused a lot of controversy, and many netizens accused him of disrespecting actresses.
But to be honest, in the previous entertainment industry, actors have always been in a passive position.
They are often randomly changed by the crew, scolded by the director, and even harassed by the producers.
Huang Xuan, who has successively starred in works such as "Mountains and Seas", "1921", and "Chosin Lake", is a rare strength among young actors, but he has repeatedly encountered role changes before he became famous.
When he was still in his freshman year, he was selected by director Zhang Yimou and arranged for him to play the role of the little prince in "Full of Golden Armor".
Unexpectedly, he had been preparing for the role for half a year, but he was suddenly replaced before filming began.
Undeterred, he went to audition for the movie Ocean Paradise and managed to perform.
To this end, he specially learned to swim, and also went to the school for autistic people to experience life, but finally was told by the crew that it was "not used".
Later, when the movie "Rizhao Chongqing" was preparing to be filmed, the director said that he would find him to act, but the investors hated him for not being popular enough, and finally withdrew him.
Yang Zi, who also has both strength and traffic, has also had the experience of being removed from the role.
Once, she successfully received a play, but as soon as she entered the crew, she was notified that her role had been changed to the daughter of an investor.
It was already midnight, but the crew asked her and her mother to leave the hotel immediately.
Later, she was also replaced many times before booting, and she had no choice but to play some scenes that she did not like at all.
Mao Linlin, who became popular with the role of "Zheng Er" in "Lanling King", also suffered unfair treatment in the early years.
In 2011, she was invited to participate in a play and signed a contract with the crew.
As a result, before filming began, she received an email from the crew saying that she was "in breach of contract" and could not continue to act in the play, and asked her to pay compensation.
Afterwards, Maureen Lin learned that it was the producer of the play who had found another actor to play her role.
To this end, she angrily posted on social platforms: "You are a big star and a big producer, and you have the power to kill." But if you break the contract for no reason and want me to compensate, you will deceive people too much..."
In 2018, the TV series "You Are My Allure Time" also caused a storm in which the actors were deleted and changed in the crew.
Xu Xiyan, the actor of the role of "Zhu Hanjing", posted a diss with the crew of Cao Xiwen, saying that he was a planner and general distributor on the set of various "hegemonic dramas".
The role she played in the original work is "female number two", and the male number two constitutes a "deputy cp", which is reasonable to say that there should be many scenes.
But after filming began, cao Xiwen played the original role "Grace", the role is about to catch up with the heroine Zhao Liying, and the roles of other roles are even more pitiful.
And the audience who has seen this drama has also said that the supporting roles she played are too many.
It seems that whether the actor can grasp the right to speak determines the quality of the treatment.
As Xu Xiyan said: "I can only say that I am too weak to influence the arteries of the 'screenwriter', and what I get my hands on and see are completely different." ”
However, even if it successfully enters the crew and the scene is not significantly deleted, it is inevitable that it will be scolded and taken advantage of by the director and producer.
Xie Na actually debuted as an actress, filming works such as "Young Fang Shiyu" and "Happiness Street".
When she was in college, she often auditioned for the crew, and occasionally received some small roles.
Once, when she made a cameo appearance in a certain crew, when she returned to the hotel in the evening to rest, the production director ran to her room and said that he wanted to hug her.
Fortunately, she reacted quickly enough to immediately open the door and shout "you can get out", and the production director ran out in ashes.
Kan Qingzi also exposed herself in the show, when she first entered the industry, she was often scolded by the director because she could not remember her lines.
At the end of each day, the other stars are arranged to stay in star-rated hotels, and she can only stay in cheap guest houses.
When choosing clothes, she could only wear the rest of the clothes that other actresses picked, and was also asked to wear "a little exposed".
Yang Mi, who has now turned himself into a boss, also revealed that he had been scolded by the director in public on the set.
At that time, she was still a newcomer, because of her lack of experience, she had not been able to meet the requirements of the director when filming crying scenes.
The director slapped her in the face in a fit of rage, and hit her.
This made her afraid of filming for a while, thinking that acting was a very dangerous profession.
However, this phenomenon is rarely seen in the crew now.
Even actors who are not famous enough dare to directly drop eye drops when filming crying scenes.
Behind this change, the stars have gradually crossed the border into the capital market.
02, into the shares, investment, find a good way back for yourself
In 2009, the listing of Huayi Brothers made a number of stars rich in the capital market, opening a boom of "star capitalization".
At that time, data showed that Feng Xiaogang held 2.88 million shares with a shareholding ratio of 2.29%, Zhang Jizhong held 2.16 million shares with a shareholding ratio of 1.71%, and Huang Xiaoming held 1.8 million shares, with a shareholding ratio of 1.43%.
Luo Haiqiong, Li Bingbing and Ren Zhenquan (Ren Quan) held 540,000 shares, 360,000 shares and 360,000 shares respectively, with the proportions of 0.43%, 0.29% and 0.29% respectively.
Among them, the best business acumen are Huang Xiaoming and Ren Quan.
Huang Xiaoming has 48 companies, from cultural advertising to catering to real estate, and even a biological company dedicated to agricultural technology research and development.
In 2014, he co-funded the venture capital firm Star VC with Ren Quan and Li Bingbing, and later Zhang Ziyi and Huang Bo also became partners.
At present, they have invested in listed companies such as Rong360 and Ideal Automobile, as well as several unicorns such as Technology and SenseTime.
Huang Xiaoming also invested with Ren Quan and Li Bingbing in the name of Handu Yishe E-commerce Group Co., Ltd.
Beijing Mingjia Investment Management Co., Ltd., which he established in 2015, has participated in more than 20 investment companies.
With such a huge commercial territory behind him, it is no wonder that he will reveal his heart to the media, hoping that one day he will not be afraid of drama and will leave a retreat for himself.
In 2016, Ren Quan, who was working with him in partnership, saw that Star VC was getting bigger and bigger, so he disbanded his studio, officially announced the end of the film, and focused on business.
However, in terms of the number of companies under their names, they are not as good as Hu Haiquan, the invisible rich man in the circle.
At present, Hu Haiquan has a total of 56 enterprises under his name, of which 15 are legal persons, 27 are shareholders, a total of 45 are invested, and 5 are controlled by more than 50%, involving film and television culture, media, music, catering, network technology and other fields.
He also founded EQ Records, established a giant culture, signed many well-known singers, such as Jin Zhiwen, Ma Tianyu, and also produced the hit variety show "This! It's hip-hop."
With a flexible mind and keeping up with the trend, he entered the e-commerce field early, and it is said that he is also a shareholder of Li Jiaqi's company.
Among the female celebrities, the one with the largest number of companies under their names is Zhang Ting, who has transformed into a "micro-business".
Among the 42 companies she has invested in or founded, there are many biotechnology companies and trading companies, and she has also been involved in different fields such as business consulting, investment, clothing, culture and media.
Today, she has the money to spend 1.7 billion yuan to buy a building and generously give a few floors to friends.
The amount of tax paid in a year is as high as 2.1 billion, so it is no wonder that she will fade out of the entertainment circle and concentrate on business.
Li Jing, who ranks second in the female star list, also has many companies, and in addition to being involved in the field of culture and entertainment, its companies also cover mechanical and electrical wholesale, decoration and decoration, food and health and other business areas.
Zhang Ziyi and Li Bingbing, as partners of Star VC, own 30 companies and 15 companies respectively.
Liu Shishi, Gao Yuanyuan, Liu Tao and others also managed their acting careers well while sitting on more than 10 companies.
There are also many actors who will transform into directors and invest in filmmaking, such as Deng Chao, who founded Orange Image.
His self-directed "Galaxy Tuition Class" won 878 million at the box office at a cost of 80 million, making a lot of money.
In recent years, the movies he has participated in and the TV series starring Sun Li have basically had his investment, such as "Riding the Wind and Waves", "Passing Through Your World", "An Home" and so on.
The names of orange images can also be found in the list of producers of "Wolf Warrior 2" and "Rumored Chen Qianqian".
Moreover, as early as 2014, he and director Yu Baimei, Chairman of 360 Company Zhou Hongyi, and Zhen Fund Xu Xiaoping, together with 80 investment institutions, launched the "Dandelion Entrepreneurship Plan" and upgraded to Internet investors.
In addition to investing and opening companies, many artists have also started the catering industry.
Huang Xiaoming opened a barbecue restaurant called "Roast Jiangnan" in Chengdu, Hangzhou, Wuhan and other places, and the scene was very lively when it opened.
Guan Xiaotong, the "national girlfriend", has also opened several milk tea shops in Chengdu, Jinan, Guangzhou and other places.
Chen He's hot pot restaurant "Xianhezhuang" is also all over the country, opening more than 700 branches in two years.
In short, celebrities have accumulated great wealth through various channels, and they are bright in front of people and noble after people.
03, the introduction of new people, completely grasp the right to speak
There are also some seniors in the circle with good acting skills and strong strength, who have introduced new people with great potential to the market through the establishment or shareholding of brokerage companies.
Zhou Xun and Chen Kun, good partners in front of and behind the scenes, both belong to the talented actors who are fed by God.
In 2017, they established Dongshen Future (Beijing) Culture Co., Ltd., signed many artists, and produced many works.
"Imperfect Her" starring Zhou Xun, "Tiansheng Long Song" starring Chen Kun, as well as movies "Ferryman" and "Hotpot Hero", etc., Dongshen Future has participated in the production.
The artists they signed are also very recognizable, such as Li Manxuan, who looks very aggressive, known as "Little Faye Wong" and "Little Xin Zhilei".
Born in Hong Kong, Lee graduated from the University of the Arts London in 2014 with a degree in fashion design and founded her own brand, Rebtsang, which has a certain reputation in the fashion industry.
Although she does not have any works at present, her facial features are three-dimensional atmosphere, and the whole face looks full of story, which can make the audience remember at a glance, and I believe that there will be bright performances in the future.
Zhang Jingyi, who starred with Peng Yuchang in "The Sky of the Wind Dog Boy", is also an artist under Dongshen Future.
Her appearance has both characteristics and conforms to the aesthetics of the public, and her beauty alone has aroused discussion on the Internet several times.
Born in The Class, her performance in "The Sky of the Wind Dog Boy" and "I Want Us to Be Together" has also won the attention and love of the audience.
Wang Zixuan, who starred in "River God" and "Samurai God Order", was also included in Zhou Xun and Chen Kun.
In addition to potential newcomers, Zhou Xun and Chen Kun's friend Ni Dahong are also artists under the company.
Shu Qi also became a partner of this company, which made the outside world more and more looking forward to the future development of Dongshen.
Li Bingbing and her sister Li Xue also set up Hesong Media with artist agency as the core.
Hesong Media not only has Zhao Liying, Zhang Xiaofei and other first-line actresses,
There is also Zhang Huiwen, who is from the "Girl Scout",
And the recent momentum of the "95 Flowers" week also.
In June this year, Gulinaza, whose contract with Tang Ren expired, also officially joined Hesong Media.
These female stars are both popular and beautiful, like Zhao Liying and Gulina Zaben have a strong fan base and are highly competitive among women of different ages.
Although Zhang Xiaofei only signed a business contract with Hesong Media, as a "5.4 billion box office heroine", the commercial value she can bring should not be underestimated.
Zhang Ziyi, who transformed into a director with the movie "My Father and Me", has also quietly become a shareholder of the brokerage company and invested in Shanghai Feibao Culture Media Co., Ltd.
Zhang Xinyu, Liu Yun, Chen Xiaohun and Li Yitong, who are familiar to everyone, are all artists of this company.
There are also fresh faces such as Liang Jingkang, Lin Ziqing, and Zhang Xinyan.
The "Shangyang Fu" that made Zhang Ziyi ridiculed by the group at the beginning, this company also participated in the production.
After the opening of the "first year of the draft" in 2018, the market for singing and dancing idols also has great potential for development.
Han Geng, the first Chinese aidou to work in Korea, was keenly aware of business opportunities.
Han Gengben is a very sober person and has a very clear plan for his career.
He realized early on that the "flowering period" of singing and dancing love beans was too short, and it was best to transform into an actor before the age of 30.
Therefore, after returning to China for development, he has successively starred in many movies, such as "Dawusheng", "To the Youth We Will Eventually Pass Away", "Wise Tiger Mountain", etc., and became popular with "Predecessor 3", and the commercial value was greatly improved.
He signed a contract with Lehua Entertainment in 2010, took a stake in the company in 2012, and after the company went public in 2015, he held about 3 million shares, and his value soared to more than 80 million.
The company has launched the UNIQ group, the Cosmic Girl group, and young artists such as Wang Yibo, Yang Chaoyue, Meng Meiqi, Wu Xuanyi and other young artists who have become popular in recent years.
Although Han Geng's exposure is not high now, every time he attends events, participates in variety shows, and the company's annual meeting, he firmly occupies the C position.
epilogue
Artists have the right to speak, but it is not a bad thing.
They have been in the circle and know the rules of the industry and the preferences of the audience better than the layman.
However, I hope that they have turned into "capital", and do not forget the original intention when they first entered the industry.
Only by sending excellent artists and works to the market can we promote the healthy development of the company and the industry.
