Taiwanese actor Shen Jianhong was recently revealed that he was selling chicken part-time in the vegetable market, which attracted the attention of netizens.
Shen Jianhong used to be a singer of an idol boy group, and starred in dramas such as "Little Master of China", "Bubble Summer" and "Lanling King", although he is not a first-line star, he is also quite well-known.
Therefore, when it was reported that he went to the vegetable market to sell chicken part-time, it was really surprising.
However, Shen Jianhong admits that he did go to the vegetable market to sell chicken part-time, for the simple reason that he is facing financial difficulties.
Although he is ostensibly a star, his acting career in the Taiwanese entertainment industry is very precarious, and sometimes he even has no regular income.
In addition, he has to pay a mortgage of NT$70,000 every month and needs to save money to get married to his girlfriend.
Shen Jianhong was also attracted to learning that his friend could earn 8 to 120,000 Taiwan dollars (about 18,000 to 20,070 yuan) a month selling chicken in the vegetable market, so he spent a week learning how to handle chicken.
According to him, he now spends 4 to 6 days a month selling chicken part-time, and can earn 20,000 Taiwan dollars a month, which is about 4,06 people's coins.
In addition, he also invested in a medical aesthetic clinic with his girlfriend, which can be described as very hard.
In a show, Shen Jianhong joked that sometimes he would miss his girlfriend for the glorious moments in the entertainment industry in the past, but his girlfriend was very realistic and thought that he was just like his father now.
In fact, "there is no distinction between high and low professions", celebrities are sometimes just ordinary people, and after fading their halo, it is the most valuable thing to be able to work hard and make money.
Similar to Shen Jianhong, last month, 40-year-old Hong Kong movie star Wu Haokang was also exposed to "building a shed" at the construction site.
Wu Haokang was originally a contracted singer of "Emperor Entertainment", with the title of "handsome version of Eason Chan", although his income is not as good as that of a first-line singer, he takes on some jobs in the entertainment industry during the day, and teaches people to sing at night.
into barely able to make ends meet.
However, some time ago, he was fired by the emperor and lost his job, so he could only use the daytime to go to the construction site to build a shed, working about 9 hours a day, earning about 1,500 yuan a day, and he could do it in a month.
Earn 30,000 yuan. Although $30,000 is not a lot in Hong Kong, it is also a very useful supplement for the family's finances. Among Hong Kong and Taiwan celebrities, it is not uncommon to lose their jobs due to "outdated".
The attraction of Hong Kong and Taiwan artists in the mainland The 43-year-old Taiwanese actor Yu Junxian has played supporting roles in "Gorgeous Challenge", "Ultimate Class 2" and "Ultimate Class 3", but his popularity is limited.
Last year, he chose to leave the entertainment industry and work as a cashier in a supermarket. Not only is this job hard, but it also requires receiving, ** and handling goods.
Despite his efforts to adapt to his work, he was complained about not smiling at his customers. In the end, Yu Junxian left the supermarket, but he has not received a job in the entertainment industry for three years, and his life has become difficult.
And even Zhu Xiaotian, a member of "F4" who was once popular all over the country, admitted last year that he had not received a job for a whole year.
After returning to Taiwan, his life was not satisfactory, and he laughed at himself as the worst in "F4".
However, in recent years, the development of the mainland has attracted Hong Kong and Taiwan artists, regardless of their fame or even "out-of-fashion stars", their development in the mainland has been good.
Even many "out-of-gas stars" have chosen to develop in the mainland. Even some supporting actors who are not well-known in Hong Kong and Taiwan earn many times more when they come to work in the mainland.
For example, Makiyo in "Taiwan's Seven Fairies", her popularity in the mainland is not high, and there are no classic works, but she revealed that she can earn more than 200,000 yuan when she comes to work in the mainland.
The 36-year-old Taiwanese "variety show" Huang Qiaoxin Yaoyao can almost be said to be "unknown" in the mainland, and the announcement fee for variety shows in Taiwan was only more than 1,000 yuan, but she revealed that in 2016.
came to the mainland to participate in a variety show, which made her a lot of money, and she described it very exaggeratedly. Wu Zongxian once said that Taiwanese artists can earn tens of millions of dollars an hour when they come to the mainland to engage in the live broadcast industry.
He also gave two examples, one is Zhang Chenguang and the other is Hao Shaowen.
Hong Kong artists also have a vivid description of the income gap between the two places, and an unknown "** green leaf" revealed that he came to the mainland to work for a month, and his income was the income of one year in Hong Kong.
Wang Zulan even said that the income from coming to the mainland is n times that of Hong Kong, which is very much. Therefore, many Hong Kong and Taiwan artists come to the mainland to develop, which can basically be divided into three situations.
The first situation is that Hong Kong and Taiwan stars, who are more famous, choose to come to the mainland to play supporting roles or appear in variety shows.
For example, Taiwanese actresses Wang Xinling, Zhang Shaohan and Chen Jiahua are typical examples of becoming popular in variety shows, especially Wang Xinling, whose commercial performance fees were exposed to 3 million yuan, with an annual income of at least 10 million.
Cecilia Cheung regained attention after participating in the mainland variety show "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves", and her income was as high as 500 million yuan in half a year.
"Sister Lang" and "Brother Phi", the two most popular variety shows in the mainland, have become the first choice for Hong Kong and Taiwan artists. There are three main ways for them to make money.
First of all, participating in popular variety shows can quickly increase popularity and earn a good income. Secondly, you can also earn considerable income through commercial performances and live broadcasts, with a low threshold but considerable potential benefits.
According to the Internet revelations, Hong Kong artists such as Chen Jinhong, Wang Juntang, Yuan Jieyi and other Hong Kong artists who are not well-known enough can also reach 60,000 yuan.
The performance fees of veteran Hong Kong stars like Zhong Zhentao, Tang Zhenye, and Lu Liangwei are between 100,000 and 300,000 yuan.
The third way is to come to the mainland to engage in business activities, than He Jiajin became a billionaire by running a factory in Huizhou, the mainland.
Wu Zhixiong relied on mainland commercial performances to earn the first pot of gold, and then opened a hot pot restaurant in the mainland.
On the whole, whether it is the entertainment industry or other industries, the mainland has many opportunities, and it is no wonder that many Hong Kong and Taiwan artists choose to develop or even settle in the mainland.
