June 29 (June 29) at noon, Gao Yunxiang Australia-related sexual invasion new bail application results announced, Gao Yunxiang bail successful. That means that as long as the guarantor pays a huge $3 million (14.65 million yuan) in bail, he can get out of jail for the time being and wait outside his prison for a final trial.
But Gao Yunxiang will not get out of prison immediately, and the court will need some time to put electronic surveillance shackles on him. Gao Yunxiang, who has been imprisoned for three months, was seen in court videos yesterday wearing a prison uniform, gaunt face and stubble chin. Under the stage, his mother and wife Dong Xuan always had a dignified face-in fact, the situation was not entirely optimistic, and during this trial some evidence was revealed against Gao Yunxiang. For example, the judge said, "in the semen on the pillowcase in the room, High DNA was also found in the blood in the DNA, room where Gao Yunxiang was tested.
Dong Xuan appeared at the hearing of Gao Yunxiang
Hearing such a "thunderstorm," Dong Xuan, pregnant, still stood high pressure and issued a loud declaration of residence for her husband in court. In order to save Gao Yunxiang, she rented a house at the local price of 6000 Australian dollars per month. And pay a one-year rent and use the trend court to certify that she and her children will live with her husband in Australia until the case is closed.
According to lawyers, Dong Xuan is the biggest "meritorious servant" in this rescue operation. After the international scandal in the entertainment industry, Dong Xuan has been busy with China and Australia to deal with related matters. A person close to Dong Xuan told the first line that during this period she suffered a lot by herself, "very strong and very painful." Under the high pressure of public opinion, Dong Xuan no longer dares to answer strange calls easily, but in order to avoid missing important information, she can only remain silent after pressing the answer button, and once the other party is a reporter or unrelated person, she will hang up immediately.
Gao Yunxiang and his family bear the same high-pressure, but also the TV series Ba Qing Zhuan Fang Tang de film and television. Since the show's actor Gao Yunxiang implicated in the "sexual invasion" incident in March this year, Donald's share price has been hit hard and has dropped to a limit many times. Recently, by the < mobile phone 2 > storm, domestic film and television stocks appeared a collective fall, no doubt let Tang even worse. As of June 29, the stock price had plunged to 12.35 yuan from 21.45 yuan per share before the incident (March 28), with the market capitalization falling by 2/5.
In order to save Gao Yunxiang and Baqing in the vortex, Tang set up an emergency team in the first place to deal with related matters urgently. Gao Yunxiang and Dong Xuan's fans also spontaneously participated in the "rescue" operation, in Weibo, stick bar, Douban and other social platforms to guide public opinion. A vigorous "rescue" operation was launched.
But as time goes on, forces on the battlefield seem to be changing subtly.
The scene of Li Chen's reshoot was also revealed on the Internet.
Since mid-April, there has been constant news of Yi Kok-first, Guo Pinchao, a man, has been preached as a male master, and then Li Chen-pang has been released to shoot a rescue scene. Recently, the play has been released again for the month of July. Although Donald did not receive notice of the cancellation of Gao Yunxiang's role, the filing was later denied by the television station. But more and more clues seem to be pointing, Donald has unilaterally abandoned Gao Yunxiang on the project. "according to Australian law, Gao Yunxiang's case will take at least 18 months to close," said some insiders. "it will take at least 18 months for the case to be closed, and" Ba Qing Zhuan can't afford it, and Donald can't afford it. "
What makes Donald even more headache is that the mountains now in front of them are far more than Gao Yunxiang's case. Recently, Fan Bingbing, the protagonist of Ba Qing, and Li Chen, the rumored new man, were accidentally involved in the < Mobile phone 2 > turmoil, and even supporting actor Xu Fan was implicated. Although Cui Yongyuan afterwards made a clarification and apology for Fan Bingbing, but the negative impact is still difficult to eliminate in a short time. A Donald staff member sighed privately about the incident, resenting and wondering about the series of "man-made disasters" caused by the project.
But the only certainty is that whether to save Gao Yunxiang or Ba Qing Zhuan, is destined to be a long and difficult battle.
One, by whom did you "drop your head"?
Torrential rains continued in Beijing in June.
At this time, it has been more than three months since the Gao Yunxiang case, and nine months has elapsed since the death of Ba Qing Zhuan, but it seems that it is still far away from the broadcast of the play.
Last September, Gao Yunxiang killed his life in Baqing.
"did you get the 'head down' in the Baqing Biography? After a series of "accidents," some netizens can not help teasing, some self-media even directly hit the title. This is obviously a joke, but along the way, the bitter life of "Baqing Biography" is also an indisputable fact-this 500 million-dollar television series, which claims to be the largest single investment in Asia, ranges from project setting, preparation to filming, and distribution. The steps were almost bumpy.
August 2015, Ba Qing Zhuan in the General Administration of Radio, Film and Television for the record, at that time the play was also called the richest woman in the Qin Dynasty. According to the filing information, at that time, the newspaper organization of the play was Dongyang League Waiwei Film and TV Culture Co., Ltd., rather than Tang de Movie, the main producer of later "Ba Qing Zhuan", which was originally scheduled to be filmed in November 2015. The production cycle is 10 months.
However, the show's real start-up time was in August 2016, when the name was changed from "the richest woman in Da Qin" to "win the World." it was also the first time the project was renamed, and it was speculated that the name of "the richest woman in the Great Qin Dynasty" was too straightforward.
Crew member Xiao Cen (pseudonym) recalled to "your Circle" that the start-up time of "winning the World" was 11:00 on August 8, 2016. "the day was specially chosen, so it was for a good start." On the same day, Fan Bingbing and director Gao Yijun and some producer owners attended the opening ceremony, and burned incense at the scene to pray for the play-a custom unique to the entertainment industry when the new drama opened and burned incense to worship the Emperor Guandi, and the direction of time and worship was very particular. It is rumored that the ceremony originated in the early film era, when the crew feared "scratching" and covered the camera with red cloth in order to "control evil."
But a series of events that followed proved that the elaborate prayer ceremony did not bring good luck to the play.
Before Gao Yunxiang, Masu also brought broadcast risk to Ba Qing Zhuan.
The following September, < win the world >, originally scheduled for mid-January 2018 Jiangsu, Oriental Satellite TV. But on the eve of broadcast (when the play has quietly changed its name to "Baqing Biography"), two major events happened-the play's female No. 2 Masu was involved in Li Xiaolu, "the door of the night sleepover" of PGone, the image and reputation of a great loss; < Baqing Biography > was involved in tampering with historical, report letter by Qin fan report, which described the plot of the play in contradiction with historical facts, and pointed out the existence of guiding errors.
If the Masu incident is not serious enough, then the latter's report has really damaged its vitality. On the eve of the broadcast, Ba Qing Zhuan was temporarily asked to withdraw and rectify the file, and from then on he set foot on the road of rebroadcasting, which could not be seen. There are some bold guesses in the industry about the report, arguing that it was deliberately done by someone on the grounds that: report letter content is logical and detailed, unlike information that ordinary outsiders can access. But at this point, Baqing Biography can only go into long revisions, editing, and review.
Until March 29, Gao Yunxiang incident broke out.
This is almost equivalent to a fatal blow. A person familiar with the matter told the "Your Circle" that the media broke the incident on the 29th, but in fact the incident occurred on the early morning of the 27th. On that night, the crew gathered for dinner and then sang to KTV afterwards. Everyone played very well. Enjoy yourself. It was also the afternoon before the incident that Gao Yunxiang released the news of "Anayan Love" on Weibo with a smile on his face. This is his last Weibo. "I heard that Gao Yunxiang was shocked after the accident. At first, no one can believe that after repeatedly confirming that he has indeed been arrested, there is really a feeling of five thunders."
Due to the tightening of policy this year, several blockbuster shows that have been placed on the public record have failed to meet the contract. The behind-the-scenes rivalry between Ba Qing Zhuan and another major costume show has also been rumoured for a long time. In fact, it has been rumored to be in the works for a long time. At that time, some people in the industry have heard that after the rectification of the "Ba Qing Biography" is expected to set the summer, to become the final "winner." There is no doubt that at this moment it is hoped that it will disappear again.
What scares them even more is the merciless nature of capital. Tang de film and television in "Ba Qing Zhuan" investment accounted for 70% of the total cost, Gao Yunxiang incident exposed, Tang de stock price fell, March 29 alone, the market value evaporated nearly 800 million! As a result, Donald's internal shock quickly turned to anger, and some staff members even directly scolded Gao Yunxiang at Time line.
2, Operation Rescue.
But anger won't solve the problem.
At the moment, there are two roads in front of Donald: one is to save the hero Gao Yunxiang, the other is the technical remake of Ba Qing Biography.
They chose the former first. Saving Gao Yunxiang is equivalent to saving Ba Qing Biography, which is Tang de's first reaction after the incident. As a result, they quickly joined hands with Dong Xuan to form an experienced legal and public relations team to launch the defense battle.
The sexual invasion case of Gao Yunxiang was reported by foreign media
Long-term attention to this matter can be found that since the exposure of Gao Yunxiang, almost every day a number of self-media posts "report" the progress of the case, most of the headlines are sensational-such as "Gao Yunxiang case has turned upside down?" Yes, sexual invasion does not exist > < Gao Yunxiang case has taken a major turning point! Hotel video exposure Wang Jing and the victim very close, and so on, but the click content, is subjective, and has a clear tendency to guide public opinion.
Although there is no direct evidence that the content of the self-media comes from Tang de or Dong Xuan, according to a public relations professional, public opinion monitoring and public opinion guidance are indeed a crucial step in public relations.
However, just to save domestic public opinion will not be able to "cure the root cause", soon this road is blocked.
Gao's first bail failure hit rescue teams hard, and even if Gao's second bail was successful, his "smudge artist" label could not be removed until the case was closed. There was no choice, and Donald synchronously launched a remedial plan for Baqingzhuan.
"Baqing Biography" drama group Hao Tang, belongs to the big investment in TV series.
The first way they thought of it was to let Guo Pingchao play Qin Shihuang in place of Gao Yunxiang. However, after careful assessment, it was found that the possibility of implementation was too low. The reasons include: Qin Shihuang is almost always in the scene of hundreds of people, or has emotional ups and downs of the bridge, if you want to get all the actors back, no matter in makeup, lighting, set, photography, art and other details, The connection between the old and the new is too difficult. Of course, there is also a more important point, if the temporary change of man, the plot will also be changed, this is almost equivalent to "cut bones," the already scarred "Ba Qing Zhuan" must not withstand such a torment.
As a result, in mid-May, Li Chen emergency rescue field < Ba Qing Zhuan >, "face-changing" Gao Yunxiang news, related shooting screen flowed out. Donald, who has been silent until now, has also been unusually generous in admitting that they are doing technical tests for Baqingzhuan. And this series of behavioral logic, seems to be hinting to the outside world that Gao Yunxiang may not be able to return to the country in the short term.
Then, the question in front of Ba Qing Zhuan at the moment is: can "face change" work?
Technically, yes. Tan Shi, a film and television producer with rich experience in special effects production, told Gui Circle that "face changing" was applied to "dynamic capture techniques", which are common in the late stage of the film. Before that, there were already many successful cases in the entertainment industry. For example, the TV series "legendary tycoon" starring Zhang Han, the former female lead actor was originally a Korean actor with Huishan, but was affected by the "restriction of Korea order". When the TV series broadcast, the hostess has become Jia Qing through the technical means of "changing her face." Earlier, a fantasy film with hundreds of millions of dollars was forced to change his face because of the actor's involvement in illegal cases.
However, due to the cost and technical differences between special effect companies, the effect and reputation of "face-changing" are often very different. According to Tan Shi, taking the fees charged by domestic special effects companies as an example, the cost of "changing faces" of a film and television work ranges from millions to tens of thousands. "generally, it is paid per minute, and 40,000 to 50,000 per minute is a more common commercial price for domestic companies." International companies will be more expensive. "
According to a senior producer, the show will spend 40 million on special effects in order to ensure the "face-changing" effect of Ba Qing Zhuan, but does not respond to it.
In "face-changing" means, Tan Shi analysis, Ba Qing Biography should first choose to delete some of Gao Yunxiang's play, let Li Chen make up the personal camera. In the group drama that can't be made up directly, the face technology will be applied, and the body movements of the two groups will be transplanted together as a whole. "the preliminary estimate is that if an episode is 40 or 50 minutes long, the actor takes up 15 minutes. The 60 episode is 900 minutes, which is the equivalent of 10 regular movies, and it is very difficult."
3, what will you take to save you, Baqing Biography?
Baqing Biography is still in the midst of a tense post-production, but its "misery" is not over-to the surprise of everyone, Cui Yongyuan nearly burned down his backyard.
In June 2018, Cui Yongyuan's sword pointed to Feng Xiaogang, Liu Zhenyun, Fan Bingbing of the series "Mobile phone 2", and exposed the "4-day 60 million contract" in the entertainment industry, causing huge repercussions. The tax bureau then began to investigate star tax. < Ba Qing Zhuan > also accompanied heroine Fan Bingbing into a dispute again. The A-share market film and television companies fell sharply, all-round green, which has undoubtedly been hit hard by Tang de Film and TV once again.
During this period, Wen Feng (pseudonym), a member of the Baqing Biography, almost continuously sleepless, and it was hard to let go of the twists and turns he had experienced along the way. Just a year ago, Ba Qing Zhuan was the "son of Heaven" in Tang de-Huai, and the glory was still in front of he
In 2017, the first edition of "Baqing Biography," which had just been produced, was sold to two major first-line platforms of Eastern and Jiangsu Satellite TV with a yell. Both gave Ba Qing Zhuan a price of three million eight hundred and seventy five thousand yuan per episode. Combined with the 7.5 million yuan / set unit price granted to Youku solo, 60 episodes of Ba Qing Zhuan have already entered the account of 915 million in the first round of webcast rights only! At that time, both the "Baqingzhuan" project team and the listed company Donald had a bright face. In the 2017 annual report released by Tang in April this year, "Baqingzhuan" had already made a return income of 332.25 million yuan. Just one play, which accounted for 29.67 percent of last year's revenue, was nicknamed the well-deserved Don's eldest son.
Wen Feng originally hoped to take a good bonus after the project, take the family to travel abroad. But no one thought, but they encountered a fire all the way to camp. "now it is not just the problem of" Ba Qing Zhuan, "is the actor a problem, film and television companies can only be unbound, watching the project fall down, the company down?" He said angrily.
The experience of Baqing Biography has undoubtedly confirmed the skin-cutting pain under the current domestic film and television system. In addition to saving Gao Yunxiang, it is worth discussing, there seems to be how to save the future innumerable Ba Qing Biography.
Suspected Tang Fang Time line scolded Gao Yunxiang: bitch one day
According to the survey, in order to protect the group's rights and interests, it is common practice in the current circle, before the film and television starts, the film side and the actors in advance of the contract to sign moral constraints. Lawyer Dong Yuanyuan, partner of Beijing Tianchi Juntai Law firm, showed "your Circle" the relevant terms of a film and television contract, in which there are strict restrictions on a number of possible illegal, criminal acts, and even excessive speech on the part of actors. In the event of default, the actor will refund all the fees received and bear all direct financial losses.
It is reported that such moral restrictions are likely to have been popular since October 2014. Since the "derailment of the article," the Beijing producers' Association has formally issued an appeal that "artists should not engage in illegal acts before the official appearance of the film and television series, otherwise the crew will be accountable to the actors for writing to the contract, which is a constraint on them." Is also responsible for the work at least. At present, such clauses are included in the actor's contracts for almost all important projects.
According to an industry source who declined to be named, Gao Yunxiang has confirmed that he has signed the relevant terms with the film side of "Baqing Biography", which also means that Gao Yunxiang is about to return all his remuneration to the film side. And compensation for the series's direct economic losses, including compensation, breach of contract damages and so on. There are rumors, plus refund, Gao Yunxiang involved in the total amount of compensation in more than one hundred and nineteen million nine hundred and ninety nine thousand nine hundred and ninety nine.
But will it be all right to pass the blame on to the actors? The answer, of course, is no.
According to senior producer Wang Liang, signing moral restrictions with actors can solve the problem of project funding, but the loss of stock price decline is incalculable for the loss of the company's brand. Take Baqingzhuan after "face change" as an example, whether the show will continue to pay back money in the future, how much discount the price will be, and what the impact of Baqingzhuan will have on Tang de Pictures' 2018 performance, it is not known how it will affect the performance of Tang de Pictures in 2018. Moreover, in addition to Tang de Film and TV, as the co-producer of the show's contemporary Oriental subsidiary Wei, China Television Entertainment, as well as Zhang Guoli's Changsheng Film and Television, will also suffer huge losses.
In the face of "innocent" producers taking big risks, some think of a "new approach"-the introduction of a film-completion guarantee system.
Li, chairman of Holichen Film and Television, was one of them, and as early as 2015, he began pushing hard for the system to land in China's entertainment industry. At present, the six branches of Hutichen involved in the "completion guarantee" have been completed, and the risk guarantee alliance involves a number of institutions such as mainland China, Hong Kong, the United Kingdom, the United States and so on.
In fact, this is an insurance business that comes from the United States, and is now mature in the Hollywood film industry and even the global film industry, and many Hollywood blockbusters are escorted by the "out-of-sheet insurance". In the past two years, this "out-of-sheet insurance" has also been applied in the country, for example, the new piece of the dragon's new piece, the blood of the machine, is the home-made film that the head uses the "end-to-end guarantee" service and has taken the finished product, And Zhang Yimou's
The film, the snowstorm, is more strategic, the first real-world insurance policy issued by a local Chinese insurance company. "the Pacific Insurance Company has issued an insurance policy and we have helped the Pacific Ocean to reinsure the insurance companies abroad." Li introduced.
There are cases ahead of time, but through the "completion insurance" to avoid bad artists damage to the project, the road to whether the road, but also be put on the question mark. "because there is a key problem: traditional film completion guarantees simply ensure that the film can be delivered on time within the budget, and that films that have not been approved and approved cannot be filmed," he said. Cases where playback and distribution cannot be submitted are outside the scope of the existing "out-of-the-box guarantee business" guarantee. " A senior insurance industry person told your circle.
The industry believes that traditional film completion insurance, to a large extent, is to ensure that actors do not get accidental injury in the shooting process, insurance accidents and insured objects are not very different from ordinary insurance. But when it comes to the ethical issues of the actors, insurance companies can hardly predict reasonable rates when the contract is signed, and it is difficult to define the party's losses after the event. "and more importantly, the establishment of a danger is to ensure the progress and development of society, must have a positive social attributes, for actors to take drugs to protect them, obviously not in this list." For example, an insurance company once issued a "star love insurance" after Lu Han broke out in love, but was quickly stopped by the CIRC because of its lack of positive social significance.
However, Li is optimistic, he revealed that he is trying to establish a "completion guarantee", let the contractor as the first line of defense, "that is, the risk is not the insurance company compensation, but we have to pay first." We will share this compensation. When we sign a contract with an artist, we will say very clearly what kind of responsibility you have to bear if you commit a crime, and at the same time use various kinds of risks to take on the problems that may occur. This maximizes the protection of the interests of the investors and the producers and reduces the risk. " However, so far, and LiChenGuang has not really carried out relevant practice.
June is over again. The summer season, which should have been packed with big dramas, has arrived, but Baqing Biography has yet to get tickets. A few days ago, there was a commercial advertisement for Ba Qing Zhuan on Oriental Satellite TV, which seemed to let fans see a glimmer of dawn.
But soon, the light went out again-Orient TV quickly denied the news. One of Donald's staff told the circle that although she was not superstitious, she planned to visit Yonghegong Lamasery with her friends these days.
