Some of China's most high-profile actors and actresses are vastly overpaid, receiving up to 100 million yuan ($14.99 million) for a single movie or TV series, a China Central Television (CCTV) report found.
中央电视台于近日报道，国内一些知名演员所得片酬过高，一部电影或电视剧动辄可达到近1亿的天价片酬。
According to a news program broadcast by CCTV, the minimum payment for some high-profile actors and actresses in China has reached 25 million yuan, and the highest already exceeded 100 million yuan, even though some films and TV series in which such performers participated have gained little popularity.
据中央电视台一档新闻栏目报道，即使国内一些当红演员参演的某些电影和电视剧人气颇低，他们的最低片酬也在2500万元左右，最高片酬可达到1亿多元。
The report cited the example of the leading actor and actress in Ruyizhuan - a TV series telling a Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) love story - who received 150 million yuan.
该报道以有关清朝爱情故事的电视剧《如懿传》中的男女主演为例，他们二人被曝获得了1.5亿元的片酬。
The State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television pledged to direct actors' guilds and film and television production companies to formulate self-discipline on the appropriate remuneration of actors and actresses, according to xinhuanet.com.
据新华网报道，国家广电总局宣布，将指导行业协会及影视制作公司，抓紧制定抵制“天价”片酬的行业自律公约，严格控制男女演员的片酬。
"Remuneration for famous actors is usually the biggest expenditure for producers, as all investors care about is whether there are high-profile actors involved," a film production insider who asked for anonymity told the Global Times.
一位电影制作公司的知情人士在接受《环球时报》采访时表示：“很多投资商都会首先考虑是否有当红演员加入，光这些演员的片酬就占了制作经费的绝大部分。”
"Remuneration always accounts for half and even 70 percent of film production costs," Hong Kong filmmaker Ng See-yuen told CCTV.
香港电影制作人吴思远在接受中央电视台采访时表示：“通常来讲，光演员的片酬就要占到总预算的50%-70%。”
In contrast, remuneration for Hollywood actors only accounts for 10 percent to 30 percent of production costs.
相比之下，好莱坞演员的片酬只占预算的10%-30%。
Although it is reasonable for excellent actors to receive high payment, their ridiculously high remuneration violates the law of markets, Lu Di, a professor at the School of Journalism and Communication at Peking University, told the Global Times.
北京大学新闻与传媒学院的卢迪教授在接受《环球时报》采访时表示，虽然一些优秀演员得到较高片酬是合理行为，但是如今如此天价的片酬已经明显违反了市场准则。
"A good film or TV series is the result of teamwork. If the majority of production funding has already gone to performers, other team members cannot be paid properly, which makes them unable to produce good-quality films and TV series," said Lu.
卢迪表示：“一部好的作品是整个制作团队的心血。如果剧组大部分经费都让演员占去了，其他工作人员就不会得到合适的酬劳。这就无法制作出高质量高水平的影视剧。”
