Organizers said each crew member would be paid about $100,000, except for the Chinese researcher, whose compensation has not been disclosed by officials from his country.

The Chinese researcher's family gets to not be incarcerated. -Woo Hoo!
Seriously though, I think 100,000 doesn't seem like that much money given that they are presumably well educated scientists and are cut off from the world in a confined space for 17 months. That's essentially working 24/7. When you break that down hourly, it's pretty horrendous.
