Sergei Netievsky about “Ural dumplings”: “They will be ashamed. This is how Netievsky lives and what he does now. Interview Europe Plus

Sokolov left his wife because of his career, and Mikhalkova seduced an honest deputy

For two TV seasons in a row, readers of Express Gazeta named the show “ Ural dumplings" Last year, this team of cheerful and resourceful people was included in the ranking of the richest for the first time Russian celebrities, compiled by Forbes, the guys were in 15th place with an annual income of $2.8 million, displacing superstars URGANT, GALUSTYAN and SVETLAKOV. And this year we celebrated an anniversary: ​​for 20 years creative life“dumplings” have become native to half of the vast country. True, if the project participants talk about life outside of television, it is only in their characteristic humorous manner. We tried to find out what was a joke in their stories and what was the truth.

Sokolov left his wife because of his career

The most mature and colorful “dumpling” - Dmitry Sokolov born in the small town of Pervouralsk, not far from Yekaterinburg. Growing up, I was a mischievous person - educators and teachers often called my parents to the carpet. But the guy always hid in amorous matters.

IN kindergarten he liked the princess with curls and pink bows. But she preferred another boy. Sokolov fought with his opponent, but could not fight off his sweetheart. Unrequited love happened to Dima in the ninth grade. To buy the girl a huge bouquet of her favorite roses, he went to work on a collective farm. Then I came to her house, but my mother opened the door. Dima was confused, asked to hand over the flowers, and he himself - to tear them up. Nothing worked out with that young lady: she married Sokolov’s friend.

And only at the institute the next love that overwhelmed Dmitry turned out to be mutual. At that time, student construction teams were popular: the guys went to collective and state farms, helped the locals in any way they could, and held concerts in the evenings. There he met his future wife. The joker and ringleader nicknamed Falcon quickly attracted Natalya's attention. The candy-bouquet period did not last long - they soon got married, a son, Sasha, was born, and ten years later, a daughter, Anechka. But her husband’s fanatical passion for KVN began to irritate Natalya: it did not bring in a permanent income, and at the same time it took up a lot of time.

“Natasha is a wonderful woman,” sighs Sokolov’s mother, Irina Aleksandrovna. - When Dima became interested in dumplings, all worries about the house and children fell on her shoulders. It was very difficult for Natasha, and she put him before a choice. She wanted her husband to always be there, and Dima to constantly travel. And they parted. The divorce was difficult for Natalya, but, having swallowed the insult, she did not stop Dima from meeting with the children. Now they are friends. Natasha never established her personal life - it seems to me that she is still worried. But Sokol did not stay single. In 2006, at a meeting of KVN student teams in Yekaterinburg, I met a young member of the group “Irina Mikhailovna”. Ksenia Li(she turned out to be 23 years younger) performed on stage, and Dmitry sat on the jury as Kaveen’s guru. And it began to spin... Their relationship entered a serious phase after they spent time together new year holidays in Sochi.- Sokol bought Ksyukha a fur coat, a car, a house! - says their mutual friend Vladimir Kovalev. “But the main thing is that he, like no one else, supported Ksyusha during the most difficult period for her: she suffered from progressive deformation of her legs since childhood. It got to the point that the girl could not walk normally and moved on crutches. It was necessary to have an operation. Ksyukha was worried - she couldn’t make up her mind, and she needed a lot of money for rehabilitation. But Dima managed to persuade her. He was there all the time, massaging her legs at night to relieve the pain. Agree, not everyone is capable of this! The wedding of Dima and Ksyusha took place on September 8, 2011, as befits KVN members, noisily and cheerfully. And in October 2012, the young wife gave Sokolov a daughter, Mashenka.

For the sake of the children, Rozhkov compromised with his wife

The 43-year-old performer has almost all female roles in the dumplings show Andrey Rozhkov Personal life was also not smooth sailing. In his youth, he could not find a mate for a long time. Rozhkov once worked as a driver in high heels - he delivered cement to construction sites and was known as an inveterate bachelor. But 18 years ago he came to Moscow, and his friends introduced him to a pretty brunette Elechka. The guys got used to each other for six years. Then Andrey finally decided to propose. Two sons were born - Semyon and Peter. Elvira carried the household and took care of the children. There were no problems with the eldest son, but the youngest grew up as a naughty boy. At some point, Elya couldn’t stand it.

She was exhausted by the endless bustle. “I wanted attention, to grow creatively, but Andrei confined her to four walls,” a family friend complained to us Inga Chernykh. - Elvira gave Rozhkov an ultimatum: either she goes to work, or a divorce! Andrey loves children very much, so he agreed to all his wife’s conditions. Now she makes stained glass. There is no end to customers - fashionable decor is now at a premium.

Mikhalkova seduced an honest deputy

About the only “dumpling” - a sexy beauty Yulia Mikhalkova- there were the most incredible rumors. The newspapers wrote that she was from Yekaterinburg, married to a bandit, and began her career as a stripper...

In fact, Julia was born in Verkhnyaya Pyshma, suburb Ural capital, and after school she was going to become an actress. But, frightened by the theater competition, she submitted documents to the pedagogical institute. IN free time the girl played in the local KVN team “NeParni”, which was supervised by Sergey Ershov- one of the participants in the “Ural Dumplings” and one of the “Real Boys” (by the way, very little is known about Ershov’s off-screen life: married for a second marriage, three children - adult daughter from the first, two sons from the current one). When the “dumplings” needed a lady for a role, most often they called the lively and pretty Yulechka, and soon she became permanent member team. Ural dumplings fans have been tormented for years important question: Why is she still free? After all, Yulia has already turned 30.

At one time, Mikhalkova was credited with having an affair with Sergei Netievsky- member and producer of the team. Everyone noticed how tenderly at every performance Yulia touched Sergei’s hand during the performance of the final song. However, it turned out that Netievsky has been hopelessly married for a long time (he and his wife Natalya have been together for almost 17 years) and is raising three children, while Mikhalkova’s heart is occupied by something else.

In 2010, Yulka fell in love with a 39-year-old deputy of the regional Duma of the Legislative Assembly Sverdlovsk region Igor Danilov. Now he heads the Committee on Housing and Communal Services Public Chamber Sverdlovsk region. They say that he is one of the few deputies who is considered honest in the Urals. His strong point is the fight against fraudulent utility companies. For a long time, the couple lived in apartments at the five-star Ramada hotel in Yekaterinburg, shelling out 300 thousand rubles for rent. per month. And last summer Yulia and Igor moved to own apartment. Shortly before this, Danilov proposed to Mikhalkova: at a party in honor of her birthday, he presented her with a diamond ring. True, the lovers still have not decided on the wedding date.

Myasnikov tamed the fashion model

In the family of a 34-year-old Vyacheslav Myasnikov- the most vocal “Ural dumpling” - peace and order reign. Every time after performances, he rushes home to his wife Nadezhda and twins Kostya and Max.

Myasnikov’s wife is a former model and also comes from Yekaterinburg. The bright, stately blonde took part in fashion shows before her marriage. business clothes. But she captivated Vyacheslav not so much with her beauty as with her surprisingly gentle disposition. “Nadya is three years younger than Slava and seems ready to fulfill his every whim,” the couple’s friends smile. - The star in the family is definitely Slava. He declares: “I will be alone on TV and in newspapers. I don't need competition! Nadyukha doesn’t argue with him - she has enough to do with the children.

Bricklayer Brekotkin is raising an Olympic champion

Funny Dmitry Brekotkin got to the “dumplings” thanks to Dmitry Sokolov and Sergei Ershov - they met in a construction team while studying at the university. True, get higher education Brekotkin did not succeed - he was expelled for poor academic performance and absenteeism. But the guy mastered a lot of construction professions - plasterer, mason, finisher - and met his fate, the charming Katerina. The courtship was short-lived - the guys got married in 1995. Two years later, a daughter, Nastya, appeared in the family, and six years later, Lisa.

While Dima is on tour, his wife runs the household and raises children: eldest daughter is a member of the Yekaterinburg synchronized swimming team and graduates from school this year, and the youngest sings in a children's choir.

Isaev found love in the homeland of watermelons

42 year old Sergey Isaev- not only a talented artist, but also a businessman, biker, and even tried himself as a candidate for deputy. But the man’s personal life did not go well for a long time.

His first wife was the Astrakhan Kaveen woman Evgenia. They met while touring Ural team in the homeland of watermelons. Zhenya immediately drew attention to the handsome and lively guy and after the game she took the first step. We had dinner and... separated for five months. As soon as Sergei managed to escape to Astrakhan once again, he immediately dialed Zhenya’s number and... proposed. She agreed without hesitation. The wedding took place, of course, in Eburg. But family life turned out to be not as fabulous as they dreamed. We broke up a year later. After bad marriage Isaev told everyone that he would definitely not go to the registry office a second time. He had a lot of girls, but Serious relationships it didn’t work out for a long time. Until I met the dark-eyed fashion model Irina. The girl came to terms with the lifestyle of the famous “dumpling” and agreed to cohabit with him without a stamp in her passport. On October 12, 2013, Ira gave her lover a son, Elisha.

"The guys didn't do anything"

Interview with ex-director of Ural Dumplings Sergei Netievsky about the scandal in the team

Sergey Netievsky

On next week The Moscow Arbitration Court will hold the first hearing on the claims of the company of ex-director of Ural Dumplings Sergei Netievsky against former colleagues in the amount of more than 100 million rubles. This time, the “dumplings” share the right to use the archives of recordings of their performances on STS.

Litigation between former friends have been going on for over a year and a half now. At first, the participants of the “dumplings” tried to dismiss Sergei Netievsky from the post of director of the team, accusing him of withdrawing funds and unwillingness to engage in general creativity. Then the friends began to sue over the combined trademark “Ural dumplings”.

In an interview with the site, Sergei Netievsky explained why a conflict arose in the team, who was threatening him with criminal cases, and whether a reunification of the Ural Dumplings was possible.

“Everyone knew the working conditions”

— In 2011, the company LLC “ Creative association"Ural dumplings", whose shareholders are equally All 10 members of the team were there: actors and authors. Why did you personally create two more companies in 2012: Fest Hand Media LLC and Idea Fix Media company?

— These are production companies created together with partners - the VBD-group company, whose representatives were directly involved in the production and promotion of the Ural Dumplings show. The Idea Fix Media company was engaged in the supply of creative products to television. And Fest Hand Media is one of the shareholders of Ideas Fix Media (according to SPARK, 50% of the Ideas Fix Media company belongs to Fest Hand Media, another 50% belongs to VBD GROUP JSC..

— You're talking about a show that was sold STS TV channel? Which of the three companies entered into a cooperation agreement with STS?

— Yes, I’m talking about the television project of the Ural Dumplings team, which was regularly broadcast on STS. Since 2009, all agreements with the channel have been concluded by the VBD Group company, and since 2012 - by Idea Fix Media.

— If the creation of the show’s content was done by the artists and authors of “Ural Dumplings,” and the employees of “Idea Fix Media” were involved in the filming, organization, promotion and sale of the finished show on “STS,” then who, in your opinion, was responsible for in this case Do you own the rights to the archives of these recordings with the right to further use?

— The first 27 concerts belong to VBD GROUP JSC. And since 2012, when Idea Fix Media began producing the show, all rights to the archives began to belong to it.

— The current director of Ural Pelmeni Production LLC, Evgeniy Orlov, in his interviews in the media claims that you “received income from selling shows to TV channels, hiding it from the team for three years (from 2012 to 2015.”) Allegedly, you told the team that they work for fees, and the guys believed this version, and at that time you were pocketing the money. Explain on what terms the cooperation with STS was carried out. How was the income of the artists and the production company formed?

— Evgeniy Orlov has a substitution of concepts in the issue of remuneration. It was as if everything that the production company and I as a producer earned had to be shared with the team. Producing work is different from the actors and authors, the enormous labor involved in producing a show. It doesn’t happen by itself! The guys didn't do anything as producers.

“Ural Dumplings” again filed a lawsuit against its ex-director Sergei Netievsky

The team performed the functions of actors and screenwriters, so the production company entered into contracts with them, as with actors and authors. And they received a fee for each episode of our show. By the way, these agreements were concluded with him by Evgeny Orlov, who was then general director"Idea Fix Media" and worked by proxy. The guys knew about all the conditions of their work. How could I mislead them for so many years? They knew about the production company and that I was working as a producer to create the show. Of course, Idea Fix Media, as a production company, also received its income for its work. This is the media business!

By the way, after we launched the show on STS, the actors began to receive a separate percentage from each showing of the show from Idea Fix Media. Previously, they did not have these conditions. This is my plus as a producer - I achieved this for the team.

“Orlov withdrew money from the company in favor of third parties”

— Currently, the Moscow Arbitration Court is considering several claims from your company Fest Hand Media against its subsidiary Idea Fix Media. You are trying in court to challenge the loan agreements that Evgeny Orlov entered into as the general director of the Idea Fix Media company. What was the reason for filing these lawsuits? Have you begun to suspect your former colleague of something?

— The shareholders and founders of Idea Fix Media conducted an audit and found out that Orlov was withdrawing money from the company in favor of third parties precisely through loans. And he did not coordinate all these transactions with the founders. We believe that Orlov acted illegally. And the court will look into this. Actually, that’s why Orlov was fired from the company, because he began to act opaquely.

— What damage did Idea Fix Media receive from these uncoordinated loans, according to the audit?

— We filed claims with the Moscow Arbitration Court for total amount over 100 million rubles. I'm afraid I'll be wrong, it seems to be 107 million rubles. These are loans in favor of legal and individuals.

— But if Orlov is now fired, then from whom in your own subsidiary do you want to demand compensation for losses?

— We are suing Idea Fix Media as one of the shareholders, and, as far as I know, the second shareholders of the company (VBT Group JSC) are joining this lawsuit. They have already stated this in court. The lawsuit was not filed against Orlov personally , and based on the results of his activities at Idea Fix Media, let the court decide who will pay. Probably, it will be the companies to which he gave loans.

“We have repeatedly called on the team to negotiate”

— Also in the Moscow Arbitration Court there are claims from Fest Hand Media against Ural Pelmeni Production LLC. You demand that your company be given back the right to dispose of archival recordings of the Ural Dumplings’ performances at STS. How did it happen that this right, previously owned by Idea Fix Media, was transferred to Ural Pelmeni Production?

— Evgeny Orlov, taking advantage of his position, withdrew the licensing rights for all concerts from Idea Fix Media in favor of the Ural Dumplings Production company, where he later became the general director. He also did not coordinate this action with the shareholders of Idea Fix Media. You see, the actors, the writers, and the production company that produced the show have the rights to record these concerts. The procedure for using these rights must be negotiated. And we repeatedly called on the team for these negotiations when disputes began between us. But Orlov decided to act in his own way.

— Sergey, none of your companies are in any way connected with Ural Dumplings. Why do you need the rights to recordings of their concerts? You just don't want to miss out on the potential profits you could make from selling those archives on TV again?

- We want legality! Audiovisual works must belong to those who produced them. How can people who did nothing as producers for the show claim, let alone take, the fruits of someone else’s labor? It's not fair. And, yes, of course, this is a business issue.

— It turns out that Evgeny Orlov carried out all the illegal actions, according to you, while being your subordinate. In fact, all the machinations you are talking about were carried out under your nose. How could you not notice this?

- I don’t go with him all the time! He acted by proxy. Evgeny Orlov was responsible for this. The founders look at the reports once a year. Yes, we gave the company some recommendations and were involved in its strategic development. And he was in charge of operational activities.

— Between you and Evgeny Orlov there is some kind of personal conflict? He used to work for you, then, as you claim, he committed these frauds, and now he works for his opponents.

— When Orlov worked as a manager at Idea Fix Media, he also received his own income. At some point in time, Orlov began to claim bonuses (profit from production income, which did not depend on him. The shareholders deprived him of part of the bonuses, to which he was terribly offended and told me: “I’ll arrange it for you.” I think that’s why he arranged such a revolution between us.

“It would be great to write everything down like in a marriage contract”

— Let’s go back to that period of “Ural Dumplings”, when you were still the director. Why did your company only have a charter, but no corporate agreements or written partnership agreements between the actor-shareholders? After all, then none of the artists would be able to be guided by their idea of ​​justice. Potential steps for each of you would be discussed in advance.

— “Ural Dumplings” had minimal activity at that time. We did not burden ourselves with additional documentation. But, probably, it would be great if we concluded them and spelled out everything, as in good marriage contract. But when people start joint activities, they do not always think about how they will need to part.

— But, by the way, this is precisely why the conflict with your dismissal from Ural Dumplings occurred in 2016. The artists could not fire you legally, since for this, according to the charter, your consent was also needed. And if you were going to leave the team anyway, why did you prove in court the illegality of your dismissal? Is this a matter of principle?

“I was fired illegally without even notifying me of the meeting.” I had to return to the post of director of Ural Dumplings in order to accept the combined trademark “Ural Dumplings” from the Fest Hand Media company. The situation is this: the text of the trademark (the name of the team. It was invented by the team, it graphic image— design team of “Fest Hand Media”. As a producer, it was simply convenient for me that these trademarks be combined into a production company, that is, into Fest Hand Media. When there was a breakdown in the team, Fest Hand Media decided to give the guys a trademark so that they could use it. But the guys themselves just didn’t want to take him. That is, they used it, but they wanted to get it only through the courts. Therefore, I had to prove that I was fired illegally, return to the position of director at the Ural Dumplings Creative Association LLC and accept the trademark. After that I left.

Official group of “Ural dumplings” on the social network “VKontakte”

That is, instead of resolving everything peacefully, the guys sued me, as if I had once illegally appropriated a text trademark. But that's not true. When I was a producer, I combined a text trademark with a graphic one for the team. And when our relationship ended, I did not prevent the guys from continuing to use it. I gave away the trademark for only 2 rubles. But they are still trying to take away the trademark, which they already own, through the court! The decision has entered into legal force and there is no subject of dispute. They have a sign. All the courts are just for the sake of hype in the media, for the sake of putting pressure on me so that I withdraw my claims from the arbitration court. It is obvious.

- You know, from the outside this story looks absurd, really.

- But that's how it is. Word by word.

— Over the last week, quite a lot of material has appeared in the media that you left your wife with three children and accumulated a child support debt of about 1.5 million rubles. This is true?

— These are dirty fake articles, not supported by facts. Yes, my wife and I separated a long time ago, and all our property issues have been resolved. But as soon as we (the company "Fest Hand Media" filed two large lawsuits for the illegal actions of Evgeny Orlov, these dirty articles below the belt immediately appear in the media. Why do you think this is being done? Moreover, Orlov's representatives , they threaten me with criminal cases. Obviously this is pressure so that I refuse to go to court!

— One way or another, the story of your relationship with Ural Dumplings is over. What are Fest Hand Media doing now?

— Life at “Ural dumplings” did not end. We are doing other projects.

Sergei Netievsky handed over a controversial trademark to Ural dumplings for two rubles

- Which for example? Are you currently producing any show that is comparable in income to “Ural Dumplings”?

- This is still a trade secret. I wouldn't like to say. There are projects that we are working on.

— trade secret- this is a specific number. That's not what this is about.

— So far, Fest Hand Media does not have such a big project as Ural Dumplings, but there are others that we are developing. After all, the show “Ural Dumplings” became successful and profitable only three years later.

— Do you think your reunion with former colleagues and friends is still possible?

— We all talked and communicated for a year and a half. As you can see, nothing has worked out yet. I very much doubt that a reunion is possible when there are “weapons sellers” next to the guys. I am ready to negotiate to leave disputes in the past and for everyone to move on in their own direction. This is the most correct way out. There is no need to cling to the past.

The founder of the show “Ural Dumplings” Dmitry Sokolov, who is now on vacation in Abkhazia, when asked by a journalist from Portal 66.ru about what caused the decision to change the director, said literally the following: “I won’t tell you anything, I won’t tell you anything, nothing yet I will not say". New director show Sergei Isaev said that he is not yet ready to comment on the situation and does not advise other participants in the show to do so. Soon, “Ural Dumplings” promise to release a press release, which will formulate the official position of the team.

Let us recall that thanks to this, an agreement was concluded with the STS television company to broadcast the show “Ural Dumplings”, which at one time helped the team to enter and gain a foothold on federal level. Today's tour schedule directly related to this contract (the number of shows is determined by the schedule of premieres on STS). Of course, to say that this is only the merit of Netievsky would be unfair to other participants in the show. The team also owes its success to the head of the author’s department (Sergey Ershov) and acting groups(Andrey Rozhkov).

Sergei Netievsky himself, unlike other team members, permanently lives in Moscow (his apartment is located in the residential complex " Scarlet Sails"). He is the owner of the production studio Idea Fix Media, whose area of ​​interest includes not only the production of the Ural Dumplings programs for STS, but also the production of TV series.

February 28 visiting the show's hosts Week & Star by Alexander Generozov and Lena Rodak visited one of the most cheerful people on the planet, a popular TV presenter, actor, screenwriter, as well as an ex-member of the KVN team “Ural Dumplings” - Sergey Netievsky.

Missed Sunday's Week & Star? Read the interview with Sergei, and you will learn the most interesting details from the professional and personal life of the artist!

Sasha: Brutal Ural guys, with an amazingly strong and funny show “Ural Dumplings”! Probably everyone who watches TV at least occasionally knows them. Charismatic, positive and funny, no nutritionist will object to such dumplings! When one of the show's creators announced his departure from the team last year, we were shocked! How? Where? For what? Friends, today Sergei Netievsky himself, a man who has invested a considerable part of himself in the show, one of its founders, will tell you what he is doing now, what he plans to do, and whether one dumpling on a big plate is boring! Hello, Sergey! You've been sailing solo for six months... Or not solo? Tell us who you work with!

Sergey Netievsky: In single, solo swimming. As a producer, I am implementing new projects that I have long dreamed of implementing, but did not have enough time. Of course, the “dumplings” were taken away most working hours. This is a wonderful project, but there comes a time when you want to do something of your own, to realize your dreams, otherwise there will be people who will do them faster, for you.

Lena: Screenwriter, producer, artist - who are you most now?

Sergey Netievsky: Yes I'm somehow in different guises, nothing is alien. Of course, the producer’s role probably prevails a little, because I know and understand how to make a team television project, which can be broadcast.

Sasha: Parting after two decades of working side by side. Was it hard for you?

Sergey Netievsky: You are always moving forward. You look at what awaits you ahead, it is always with anticipation. Living off the nostalgia that was somewhere, once in the past. You need to move forward, and when you plunge into this wave, into a new whirlpool, new adrenaline, new sensations. The new projects that I am currently doing with my production, they excite me very much.

Sasha: What kind of projects?

Sergey Netievsky: We are launching the “League of Improvisations”, this is the first All-Russian festival. We unite all groups that engage in the genre of improvisation. This is a new movement, we have been moving it for three years together with Sasha Pushny in our “Show from the Air”. The show on TNT appeared with same name. This suggests that the direction is popular.

Lena: We prepare a certificate for all guests. This is what we got for you, Sergey. Listen.

Sasha: Sergei was born on the banks of Tagil, studied at the Ural Polytechnic Institute, was even a store director - and where, one wonders, is the humor here? But humor was always there, you just had to get into KVN, and then it began! Take off at major league, title " last champions XX century", TV shows, tours - a great way! Since 2015, in solo projects, Sergey is also a screenwriter, TV presenter and producer. “Seasons of Love”, “Freaks”, “Unreal Story” - these are just some of the projects with his participation! Yes, it really is an unreal story!

Sergey Netievsky: There was a lot, yes.

Lena: Sergey, you have an engineering degree in an absolutely humanitarian field. Is this truly universal education?

Sergey Netievsky: You can say that I work in my specialty. My specialty is mechanical engineering technology. So the technology, it is actually the same in the production of the show, the same stages. Everything is divided into small stages, you must complex tasks divide into easy paths and quietly move progressively from one to another in order to achieve results.

Lena: How did you get into KVN? University team?

Sergey Netievsky: Yes, of course, a university team. It was a long time ago, 1994, we started playing in KVN, got into the major leagues and off we went. This is in the past, now I am more interested in the projects that I do, starting from the huge background that I had as a student, when I was doing KVN, when I was doing the show. Now I want to do something new, the world is moving.

Sasha: Comedians, as a rule, dream of playing Hamlet, of drama. Don’t you want to try something unfunny or sad?

Sergey Netievsky: I really want to. I really want to play something non-humorous. I go to both directing and acting courses. Of course, there is such a distant, deep, I hope, achievable dream, to play some kind of dramatic role.

Sasha: Sergey, the name seems clear, “League of Improvisations”, that is, no framework at all?

Sergey Netievsky: One might say, practically none. We have several engines, several improvisational forms in which we will play. We are now collecting applications from all interested teams, there are not many of them, we know almost all of them. There are about 20 groups that work professionally. If we don’t know someone, we are happy to invite everyone, go to the website ligaimpro.ru, register, send your applications.

Lena: What are the application requirements?

Sergey Netievsky: The name of the group, a short resume of where you are participating and, preferably, send at least some video so that we can see how the guys behave on stage. Next we select and invite you here. We will have three days: April 8, 9 and 10 at the Central House of Artists. There will be qualifying games, master classes, trainings, brainstorming sessions, and the generation of new ideas. We have an interesting, extensive program there.

Lena: Will there be a winner and what awaits him?

Sergey Netievsky: Yes, there will be a winner. The title and money are usually of interest to everyone. On April 10 there will be a gala concert, which will include the best teams, and they will compete for the title of best improvisational group.

Sasha: Sasha Pushnoy is with you in this project. So there is also a musical part?

Sergey Netievsky: We are currently negotiating with Sasha Pushny, there is an idea to do musical improvisation inside. What are we doing? We have complete improvisation: improvisation with a partner, with text, with space, with music, with a stage, with an audience. You try to liberate your brain in all directions. This is a very interesting direction, which is why we are trying to promote it.

Lena: How interesting is it to the viewer?

Sergey Netievsky: Here’s the point: not everyone will make it to the gala concert, but only those who can create some kind of integral story in a short time on stage so that it is clear to the audience. It's interesting to watch. This is an entertaining and humorous project.

Lena: For those who can't see it live, will there be a TV version?

Sergey Netievsky: We will film a pilot, which we will send to a TV channel. We really hope this turns into a show.

Lena: Time for a quick poll on Europa Plus. Short question- short answer.

Three greatest comedians of all time according to Sergei Netievsky?

Sergey Netievsky: Petrosyan, Galustyan, Martirosyan.

Favorite cuisine, dish. What can you cook yourself?

Sergey Netievsky: Dumplings. I can cook them with different, different fillings.

Is it true that people who make others laugh professionally are gloomy misanthropes in everyday life?

Sergey Netievsky: Well no, of course not. It's like the law of conservation of energy... True!

Who is your main critic? Whose opinion do you trust?

Sergey Netievsky: Parents.

Is it true that speaking at a corporate event is more exhausting than any other?

History of conflict between participants comedy show“Ural Dumplings” with its former director Sergei Netievsky was previously known to the public mainly from the words of Netievsky himself. Your version of the development of events and the causes of the conflict. And we asked a lawyer who represents the interests in court to express his point of view former director show. Managing partner of the Yusta Aura law firm, Evgeniy Dedkov, explains in an author’s column on the website portal that “Pelmeni” could have prevented the conflict many years ago if they had complied with all the formalities on time.

The situation that happened with “Ural dumplings”, unfortunately, is repeated very often. Many creative teams step on the same rake, simply because all agreements between the participants are conceptual in nature: everyone understands their role in their own way; agreements are not written down on paper.

What Ural Dumplings initially did was not a business, and therefore the nature of the organization and all relationships between participants was informal. The same thing happens, for example, with musical groups. Legal status " musical group" does not exist. The group is a creative team, an association within general activities. Guys just get together and do something. On initial stage it is unknown whether the musicians will remain playing in the garage or start earning money, so the relationship between them is not formalized legally.

From this point of view, the important moment is when the first money appears in the project when it comes to monetization. This is the transition of the team from simple pastime to commercial activity. And this stage is many creative groups miss and make mistakes.

The moment money appears in a project is a fundamental factor that makes changes and affects organizational relationships. Because the question immediately arises: who is the formal leader? At this stage, the ideas of participants in formations that were initially informal in nature may diverge.

An example is the Ekaterinburg group Do-up, which at a certain stage broke up. There was part of the team with Alexander Bogomolov, who was the founder, musician, song creator, etc. And there was the second part of the group - Vadim Shakurov, who was a PR manager and dealt with financial issues. Both considered themselves leaders of the project, and each had reasons for this. Everyone had their own truth, but there were no clear agreements. When the group broke up, Shakurov lured the vocalist to himself and used his resources as the group's contact representative to switch over to himself cash flows.

Every time everything happens the same way; it is important for creative teams not to miss the moment of transition to commercial activity and to clearly build relationships between project participants. From an organizational point of view this means that the relationship needs to be formalized by creating a joint business company, most often this is a society with limited liability.

Returning to the “Ural dumplings”, it should be noted that they accomplished this point - they created LLC "Creative Association "Ural Dumplings", where, according to the formal distribution of roles, each team member received an equal share. That is, how they are used to interacting informally, such specifics of relations are reflected in the charter of the society.

But the problem with Pelmeni is that the organization was created simply as a formality. As an entity that has a current account where money from concerts or other activities can be received. They committed typical mistake: underestimated the importance of elaborating the provisions of the constituent documents.

Usually, due to insufficient legal literacy, people look on the Internet how much it costs to register an LLC, see a small cost and expect exactly that amount. The society is registered, people are given a charter, but no one really reads it. The charter is the main formalized document that regulates the relations of business partners, and therefore requires the most careful study. In the case of “Ural dumplings”, it included mutually exclusive provisions. It is obvious that the team members did not bother to read the document and understand what was written there. Therefore, they did not make sure that the charter stated how participants should act in certain situations.

To all creative teams who plan to engage commercial activities, can be given practical advice: You need to take maximum time to reflect the actual agreements on running a joint business in the constituent documents. The fact is that the current corporate legislation is very flexible, and most of the parameters of the relationship can be changed. This also applies to the distribution of profits between participants. It is not at all necessary that profits be distributed among the participants according to the shares prescribed in the charter. It can be distributed according to other parameters.

Also, corporate legislation provides such an important tool for regulating relations between business partners as corporate agreement. Since the charter cannot reflect the dynamics of development of relations between company participants depending on the occurrence of certain circumstances, this instrument allows you to agree in advance on how the corporate rights of participants will be implemented. For example, they may agree to vote a certain way on general meeting members of the company, provide for the obligation to sell shares upon the occurrence of certain circumstances etc. Unlike the charter, the information contained in the corporate agreement is not disclosed anywhere and is confidential. Ural Dumplings did not have such an agreement.

But in most cases, a corporate agreement is not enough to regulate the relations of business partners. Firstly, running a joint business is often not limited to using the only LLC. Secondly, there are things that are not regulated by law. Therefore, instead of verbal agreements, it can also be recommended to conclude written partnership agreement, in which it is possible to simulate various situations and determine which actions of partners will be correct and fair in these situations. For example, to determine the goals of the business, the principles on which entrepreneurs will conduct joint activities, distribute roles and areas of responsibility, determine the principles of profit distribution, and establish what will happen if any goal is achieved.

Unlike a corporate agreement, violating a partnership agreement will not entail legal consequences. But this does not mean that there will be no consequences at all. Thus, in certain situations, the court may recognize a violation of partnership agreements as an abuse of right, and this will be the basis for the recovery of damages caused. And if there is no such agreement, each partner will proceed from his own idea of ​​justice, and this will create fertile ground for conflicts. This is exactly what happened with “Ural dumplings”.

In my opinion, it was the lack of clear agreements that was the main reason for their conflict, because Sergei Netievsky did not commit any illegal actions. Working as director of a joint LLC "Creative Association "Ural Dumplings", he did not violate the rights of his teammates. However, the rest of the team accused Sergei of dishonesty. If the parties to the conflict had entered into a partnership agreement in advance, then it would have been possible to clearly establish whether the specific agreements of the team members were violated and whether there was in fact any basis for the accusations made. Since there was no such agreement in this case, the accusations made by teammates against Sergei personally seem incorrect to me.

In general, all the tools necessary to resolve relations between business partners, including creative teams, were invented a long time ago. They are actively used in the West, but in Russia, unfortunately, they often receive little attention.
