Chapter 9 Breaking the game - He Youwei's approach(1/2)
The agent made an appointment with him at the Jichen Hotel Cafe in Yongan District.
This is a cafe inside a five-star hotel with luxurious decoration and expensive consumption.
When Chen Lin arrived at the coffee shop, he saw his agent Wang Guining sitting in a booth next to the floor-to-ceiling window. He went over and said hello, "Hello Sister Ning."
Wang Guining is a woman in her thirties.
Fashionable dress and elegant temperament.
He is a fat person, with a round and fat face, and he wears round-frame glasses with black gold edges to add some literary style to himself.
Wang Guining also greeted, "Long time no see, what to drink?"
Chen Lin sat down: "I can do it either."
Wang Guining: "Then let's go with Mocha, I remember you like this."
Chen Lin: "Thank you Sister Ning."
Wait until the greetings are over,
Wang Guining only had a lot of Chen Lin: "You have changed."
Chen Lin smiled and said, "Have you changed?"
Wang Guining: "I have become sensible."
Chen Lin rubbed his chin: "It's better for social education."
Is this hiding him before the company is satirized?
Wang Guining smiled indifferently: "I think you know why I came to find you. You are very popular online recently. So the company has specially divided some resources and wants to focus on packaging and promote you. What do you think?"
hehe.
Chen Lin rubbed his chin and pondered.
After a while he asked, “Can I refuse?”
Wang Guining regrets: "I'm afraid not."
Seeing that Chen Lin was still pondering, Wang Guining advised: "I know you are quite resistant to the company in your heart. You have ignored you for two years. Now that you are popular, you want to squeeze your value. But you have to know that short-term popularity is just an opportunity. If you want to keep it, you have to seize this opportunity."
"But it's probably difficult on your own."
"I'm going to tell you, many people you offended before are contacting us, so let's continue to hide you."
"This time I'm still trying to resist the opposition and gained resources for you."
Wang Guining is considered a big agent of Xingyue Entertainment.
She has this ability.
but……
She is also famous for ruthlessly squeezing machines.
Over the years, many newcomers who have become popular have been squeezed out like sugar cane under her arrangement and then abandoned it.
With this reputation,
Chen Lin did not consider the possibility of continuing to cooperate with Xingyue at all.
So he shook his head and said, "Just like I said last time, I'm going to leave the circle. I've let go of all my words, so it's not good to change the photos."
Wang Guining said calmly: "This is nothing, and don't forget that you have a contract. You are obliged to cooperate with the work arranged by the company."
The picture is revealed.
Chen Lin smiled and said: "Contracts and treaties are equal. I have not watched any of the packaging, planning, promotion and other resources stipulated in the contract in the past few years. In other words, whether I become popular or not has nothing to do with the company."
Wang Guining took a sip of coffee: "Is it going to sue?"
She turned to the cup and said, "This is very bad for you."
The company has a complete process to deal with this situation.
Wang Guining continued to persuade: "It can be said that you will lose when you sue. Maybe you will face high liquidated damages and compensation. Even if you agree to continue to cooperate at that time, you may have to pay for lost work and reputational losses. If you make a fuss, why bother?"
"Without taking advantage of your traffic, it's not good to make a fortune and leave?"
"This is good for everyone."
Chen Lin: “…”
To be honest,
He was disgusted.
This routine of brokerage companies is also one of the culprits of the turmoil in the entertainment industry.
Nowadays, the rights and obligations of many agency companies in the performance brokerage service contracts are not completely equal.
The responsibilities and obligations that an agency needs to fulfill may be general and general agreements. However, the responsibilities and obligations that an artist needs to fulfill must be relatively complete agreements.
This makes it difficult for celebrity artists to prove that the brokerage company has breached the contract or meets the clear contract termination conditions, but the brokerage company can easily prove what breached the contract. Once the celebrity artist breaches the contract, he may face sky-high liquidated damages and compensation.
But before the newcomer becomes famous, he only wants to be red and purple. It is unlikely that he will think about whether the contract rights and obligations are clear, equal and reasonable.
And a pure newcomer debuted,
In fact, there is not much negotiation status, and it is unlikely that a lawyer will be hired to review it before signing the contract.
Many big names today have experienced Chen Lin’s current dilemma.
But some companies are very good at doing business.
After the artist becomes famous, he will also adapt to changing the contract content and maintaining a cooperative relationship.
But some...
It's very disgusting.
or,
What they bet is that you can't make a big hit.
Just think about rushing to squeeze out the surplus value from you and then substituting others.
After all, fresh meat,
The shelf life is limited.
It's hard,
Or compromise?
Wang Guining seems to be saying something unreasonable...
Chen Lin frowned and pondered,
At this moment, a cool and condescending voice came: "I'll come in time."
Chen Lin turned his head and saw He Youwei, dressed in neat clothes, walking over calmly. Her powerful aura instantly attracted everyone's attention and made him the center of sight of the entire cafe.
She sat next to Chen Lin without hesitation: "What are you talking about?"
I'm asking you,
But her eyes were staring at Wang Guining opposite her.
Wang Guining smiled and said, "Are you Chen Lin's financial backer?"
This is very explicit,
It's even a little provocative.
He Youwei was a little unhappy: "That's right."
So Wang Guining briefly said what he said just now and finally added: "This is also for Chen Lin's future. I don't think you will refuse, right? If you refuse Chen Lin, you will face a high-priced liquidated damages."
Threat me?
He Youwei's eyes were shiny, and I would be excited if you say this.
She hugged her chest and squeezed out a sensational surging: "High price? How high is it?"
Wang Guining said with his own words: "The investment resources we defined as five million when we signed Chen Lin, and if we breach the contract, we would be ten times the compensation. We have received some endorsements and announcements for Chen Lin, which is also considered as breach of contract. In short, the value is about sixty to seventy million."
Chen Lin: “…”
Ginkgo!
If I agree to the endorsement of the announcement, you can accept it!
Damn, you just go for the 100 million goal?
He Youwei is so rich,
It’s not that easy to take out a small 100 million cash!
Especially the one who uses it to compensate the fine for the young man.
She is just the daughter of Hengjian Pharmaceutical.
