Indeed, we can see in some videos and pictures of Reuters that there is always a circle of people around the stars. They are always with the stars, escorting them from top to bottom, delivering tea and water. They really take good care of them. These people may be appointed by the brokerage company or the stars themselves. In short, their existence is to serve the stars.
In today's highly industrialized society, star artists are gradually productized, and the cultivation and promotion of star artists are gradually streamlined. In order to make this product popular with more users, the company obtains more advertising endorsements and film and television resources, and then creates more value more continuously. It often conducts all-round discipline on the daily life, food, clothing, housing and transportation, and business etiquette of star artists. The existence of star assistants is to make stars work better and better, and to prevent them from making mistakes and being accused by the media and fans, which will have a negative impact on the company's economic interests. So we see such a detailed division of labor and so many star assistants.
In addition, there are some star artists who are "not enough coffee places, and assistants will make up for it". In order to show their status, they specially hired some assistants to make up for their guilty conscience and timidity without the support of their works and fans. This is not uncommon for some newcomers and online celebrities.
Many people are curious about the salary of star assistants. Some people think that the salary of a star is so high that the income of a star assistant will definitely not be low. Haha, I can only say "too young and too simple". By interviewing some star assistants and investigating the salary system of performing arts companies, some data are obtained.
First of all, star assistants can be divided into three types: ordinary, corporate propaganda brokers and nannies. Ordinary is responsible for the daily work arrangement of the stars, including contacting the organizers, contacting the media and communicating with the stars. Corporate propaganda and brokerage, mostly in smaller companies, have several assistants, who are not only responsible for the propaganda and planning of works, but also for the expansion of business activities. The nanny type is actually a life assistant, taking care of the star's food, clothing, housing and transportation, serving tea and water to the star, carrying a bag and holding an umbrella to book air tickets and so on.
Secondly, most of the star assistants who just joined the job started from the nanny type or the ordinary type. Their main job is actually handyman, and the work is trivial and tiring. Their salary is around 5000 yuan. After working for three to five years, I have accumulated certain industry experience and resources in the circle, and can be responsible for some film and television publicity, overall planning and business development. In fact, it is equivalent to being promoted to executive broker or broker, and their salary is about 10000 yuan.
Of course, the salary of some assistants of big coffee and popular stars in the circle may be much higher than the industry average. After all, when a star is happy, he may give you a year-end bonus of 100 thousand or hundreds of thousands, which can also be seen in the circle, but only in a few cases. For example, Huang Xiaoming once rewarded his assistant with a million luxury cars, and Fan Bingbing once gave him a house. In this case, it may be that the assistant has been following a certain star and has a close relationship. Just like friends and relatives, he naturally won't treat him badly in salary.
It can be seen that the starting salary of the star assistant job is still relatively low, and the future development depends on the stars you follow and the experience and resources you have. Here, I advise some fans who are interested in becoming star assistants to think twice. The love beans in front of the camera and the love beans behind the camera may be completely different. Don't go to the end, you didn't make any money, and you lost your powder.
