More than 6 artists in Hong Kong have lost their jobs. What is the situation of Hong Kong Star now?

According to Zhu Pi, a senior entertainment reporter in Hong Kong, at present, more than 6 artists in Hong Kong are unemployed without filming, and even some artists who are in financial difficulties have already needed to receive HK$ 9, from the Louis Koo Relief Fund.

Although HK$ 9, seems like a lot, Louis Koo's rescue fund can only be collected once, and this amount of money is not particularly large on Hong Kong Island, which is expensive.

Even Yu Shiman, the popular actress of TVB, spends just over HK$ 2, to attend the ribbon-cutting activities, which definitely belongs to hundreds of thousands or even millions of ribbon-cutting expenses compared with domestic first-line artists. The price of cabbage? Yes.

Are Hong Kong stars, once famous throughout Chinese mainland, really so down and out now? 1. Why do artists lose their jobs?

The most direct cause of the unemployment of Hong Kong artists at this stage is the epidemic, and many program groups have been forced to stop working, so these Hong Kong artists have lost their sources of income.

For those big-name Hong Kong stars who have savings, this is all right, but for those Hong Kong artists on the 3rd and 4th lines, this epidemic has really become a disaster.

It has even been reported that some Hong Kong artists who are not particularly famous already need to take part-time jobs to support themselves.

but the epidemic may be the most direct cause, but it will not be the root cause. 2. Has Hong Kong entertainment really declined?

now that I think about it, it seems that I haven't seen it for a long time. Exploding fire? There may still be TVB fans chasing Hong Kong dramas, but it is undeniable that Hong Kong dramas and even Hong Kong movies have declined, and even it can be said that they have declined.

The highlight of Hong Kong's entertainment industry should be in the 198s and 199s, but after entering the new century, Hong Kong entertainment seems to have fallen into a trap? Green and yellow don't pick up? The embarrassing situation.

Hong Kong movies in the late last century, Andy Lau's Infernal Affairs, as tears go by, etc., or the stories of crows and young people, were all influencing the young people of that generation, and even Hong Kong movies at that time still had considerable influence in Southeast Asia.

But think about it. Nowadays, young people either like to chase American blockbusters or some domestic mobile dramas and idol dramas. Movies and TV dramas from Hong Kong have long since lost their popularity.

Speaking of the unemployment of Hong Kong artists, the most direct reason now is the epidemic, but the fundamental reason is the gradual decline of Hong Kong entertainment in the mainland. These Hong Kong artists have either moved to mainland circles or saved enough money to retire.

After all, the high-light era that belongs to the entertainment circle in Hong Kong is over. 3. What is the current situation of Hong Kong artists?

The total population of Hong Kong Island is just over 7.5 million, even if other migrant workers are included, it will be tens of millions.

A movie market with tens of millions of people can't support so many Hong Kong stars. Even if a movie is only shown in Hong Kong, it is estimated that it will be difficult to return to its original capital.

Therefore, it can be said that most Hong Kong artists have started to develop in the mainland, and no one will have a hard time with money, right?

In fact, even at the peak of Hong Kong movies, the income of these Hong Kong artists was not particularly high.

In the 198s and 199s, when Chen Honglie was filming a drama, he could earn HK$ 2,5 per episode. Even if he could arrange 2 episodes a month, his income was only HK$ 4, to HK$ 5,.

The income of HK$ 4, to HK$ 5, looks good in the 198s and 199s, right? But even after several decades, TVB's salary is still not much higher.

Let's take Yu Shiman as an example. It is said that she only earns HK$ 4, per episode for TVB, which means that Yu Shiman's monthly income may be only several hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars, or at most millions of Hong Kong dollars.

this income is not low today, is it? However, this does not mean that Yu Shiman can earn more than HK$ 1 million a year, because there are not dramas to be filmed every month, and it is normal to stop filming for several months or even half a year.

To put it bluntly, in most cases, Yu Shiman's annual income may be several million Hong Kong dollars, which is a huge sum for us ordinary people, but it may not be particularly high for stars, especially in places with high expenses like Hong Kong.

and judging from the position of Yu Shiman, a popular TVB flower, she must be at least a second-tier star on the mainland, right?

But the second-tier stars in Chinese mainland earn tens of millions of dollars a year, so it's normal that a TV series with top traffic in those circles is quoted at tens of millions.

Compared with Hong Kong stars, mainland stars still seem to earn too much.

Therefore, it's not surprising that Hong Kong stars began to move to the mainland on a large scale.
