The salary of Mencius and Li Junrui in "The Nine Heavy Sons"

MINH PHONG |

Although "Nine Heavy Sons" achieved good broadcasting results, the salaries of Meng Ziyi and Li Junrui are still among the lowest in the entertainment industry.

Recently, “The Nine Deadly Sins” has been one of the most watched films in China. The project broadcast on Tencent Video has continuously set new records, raising the reputation of the two main actors, Meng Ziyi and Li Junrui.

Recently, bloggers have revealed the salaries of the two actors who played the main roles in “The Nine Deadly Sons”. Accordingly, Meng Ziyi is said to have received 6 million NDT (about 21 billion VND), while Li Junrui received 4 million NDT (about 14 billion VND).

However, Li Junrui's actual salary was much lower than the 4 million yuan figure. The actor from Hubei had to pay 80% of the company and crew fees and only received 20%. Previously, Li Junrui's salary ratio was only 1/9, which means about 10%.

Recently, he has received many more big projects and been given the opportunity to play the main role, the new management company has increased Quan Nhue's salary by 10%. Therefore, the actual amount he received after the movie "Cuu Trong Tu" is around 700,000 - 800,000 NDT (about 2.4 - 2.8 billion VND).

Regarding Meng Ziyi, the actress is working under Yuekai Entertainment. Because she has been working for a long time and has a strong position, she still has a say in the company. The salary that Ziyi receives is about 40%.

The above information caused a stir in public opinion, because the salaries that Manh Tu Nghia and Ly Quan Nhue received were relatively low compared to the general level in the entertainment industry.

But considering many factors such as the actors' reputation or the film's investment level... it's not too surprising with the amount of money the two actors of "Cuu Trong Tu" received.

According to the record, “The Nine Deadly Sins” is not a key project of Tencent with an average investment level. Therefore, the remuneration for actors is also limited.

Previously, Meng Ziyi and Li Junrui did not have a position in the entertainment industry. Up to now, Meng Ziyi has only played the main role in one project, “The Story of Forget-me-nots”. Meanwhile, Li Junrui also has the only male lead role in “Goodbye to the Moment of Vibration”.

The above films did not create a buzz. Therefore, when participating in “The Nine Deadly Sins”, the two main actors did not have enough influence.

Although the salary for “The Nine Heavy Sons” is not high, with the film achieving promising broadcasting results, Meng Ziyi and Li Junrui have more opportunities to develop in the future. In the coming time, it is likely that the salary of the two actors will increase significantly.
