You are a star, why do you have all the skills from the underworld?

Xu Yi only found out about this the next day.

He drank a lot at Chu Zhengchen's house and slept for a whole afternoon, then returned to his courtyard and slept again.

I waited until about 11 a.m. the next day before I woke up completely.

Seeing that there were several missed calls from Liu Guoping on his phone, Xu Yi immediately called Liu Guoping back. Liu Guoping didn't elaborate on the phone. He only asked Xu Yi if he had time. He wanted to talk to Xu Yi in person.

Xu Yi accepted the appointment without thinking much.

The two met at a tea place under the main station building. Liu Guoping seemed to be worried.

When Xu Yi saw Liu Guoping, he couldn't help laughing and said:

"Director Liu, what is this that has troubled you?"

"There is something..." Liu Guoping didn't know how to say it for a moment. After thinking about it for a long time, he had to bite the bullet and said, "It's about the program The Voice."

Xu Yi nodded.

Xu Yi had already guessed that Liu Guoping could come to him.

Maybe the main station wants to produce a second season, but the program team can't make up their mind about what new highlights should be included in the second season, so they came here to learn from themselves. However, the first season has just ended, and it stands to reason that the second season will have to wait until at least next year!
“The show was great, very successful!”

Xu Yi praised him heartily.

This compliment made Liu Guoping even more embarrassed, as if he had done something wrong.

Seeing this, Xu Yi couldn't help but ask:

"Director Liu, just say it if you have anything to say. We are all old friends. If I can help, I will never refuse."

Every time Xu Yi said something, the burden on Liu Guoping's heart became heavier.

It seemed that he owed Xu Yi more.

He no longer hesitated and finally told the truth:
"Xiao Xu, the overseas copyright of The Voice has been sold."

Hearing this, Xu Yi frowned and said in confusion: "Sold? Which country came to buy it? Director Liu, this is a good thing. You informed me to collect the money, right?"

"No." Liu Guoping only felt that his throat was a little hot: "The copyright was sold by Taili, and the copyright fees also went into Taili. I am sorry for you in this matter. You can beat or scold me, but I have no complaints. ”

"What do you mean?"

Xu Yi finally got the idea, "You mean, the overseas copyright of the program also belongs to your station? This doesn't seem right. I remember that when this program was established, the overseas copyright was in my hands. How could you Selling?”

When Xu Yi planned this show, apart from charging planning fees, he only retained the overseas copyright.

As for advertising fees, patch fees, and domestic copyrights, they all belong to the main station, and he doesn't care.

But now, the main station actually sold overseas copyrights without his consent? !

This made Xu Yi feel like he was being stabbed in the back.

This feels bad.

On the contrary, Liu Guoping breathed a sigh of relief, the matter had been lifted, and he could not control whether he lived or died. He simply said it all out of his mind: "I was also blamed for this matter. The deputy director of the main station personally came forward and sold the copyright. I only found out after the fact. By the time I found out, it was already too late. .So...Xiao Xu, do you think there is a solution to this matter?"

"Have!"

Xu Yi didn't want to embarrass Liu Guoping, so he said directly:

"Give me all the royalties sold. In addition, you have to issue a document stating that the overseas copyright of The Voice belongs to me, and publish it on the entire network. Can you do it?"

Obviously, Liu Guoping could not agree to this condition.

Based on his understanding of the deputy director, he would not be able to agree to the deputy director's appointment.

Liu Guoping was a little confused:

"Xiao Xu, there are...are there any other solutions?"

"The copyright fees have already been paid into the station, and they will definitely not be able to get it out. How about I discuss it with the leaders of the station and give you some compensation?"

Xu Yi shook his head: "I don't need compensation, I just want the share I deserve."

Liu Guoping:...

Negotiations have reached a dead end.

Liu Guoping had expected this situation. After several contacts, Liu Guoping had a better understanding of what kind of person Xu Yi was. This kid would not be easily persuaded and would only believe in what he thought was right.

Alas, this knot is so difficult to untie!
Just listen to Liu Guoping say:

"Xiao Xu, let me ask one more question, if the station doesn't agree to give you the copyright fee, what will you do?"

Xu Yi said calmly: "I'm a soft-spoken person, so naturally I can't do anything to the main station. However, the law is about fairness. I still have the overseas copyright documents for the program in my hand. Both of us have stamped and signed them. I think this It’s not like you don’t recognize the document, right?”

The implication is, either give money or file a lawsuit.

Liu Guoping said that after he returns, he will try his best to persuade his leaders to resolve the matter peacefully.

But both he and Xu Yi knew that this 'peace' would almost never come.

After returning, Xu Yi locked himself in the study.

This incident had a big impact on Xu Yi. Xu Yi has always been able to go smoothly in the entertainment industry with his talent and vague backing. Including setting up his own studio after leaving Yixiu Media, there was no obstacle.

This gave Xu Yi an illusion:
The world is beautiful.

But the reality is that this world is cruel.

This wave of operations from the main station reminded Xu Yi: there are always people more powerful than you who will steal your things and not even care.

If you want not to be bullied, you must make yourself stronger.

Otherwise, today the main station bullies you, and tomorrow it may be stronger capital bullying you.

Want to lie down?

It also depends on whether those people are willing to let you lie down.

"Sister Ju, which company is our studio's legal advisor from?"

"Boss, why are you asking this?"

Fat Orange was a little surprised.

Xu Yi rarely asks about trivial matters in this aspect of the company. Once he does, it means something must have happened.

Sure enough, just listen to Xu Yi say:
"If we want to file a lawsuit with the main station, can they take it?"

When Fat Orange heard this, he asked in horror: "What?"

Isn’t this too scary?
Litigation with the main station?
This kind of thing has never been heard of, let alone seen!
"Boss, are you serious?" Fat Orange said worriedly, "No, but why is this?"

From Fat Orange's point of view, Xu Yi has a good relationship with the main station.

First, they collaborated with Channel 9 on a documentary program, with Xu Yi as a consultant, to create "If National Treasures Could Talk"; then they collaborated with Channel 3 to develop "The Voice of China". Both programs are Phenomenal explosion.

With this kind of relationship, why would the two parties start a lawsuit?

Fat Orange doesn't understand.

Just listen to Xu Yi said:
"I'm just saying that it's possible, but you don't necessarily have to file a lawsuit. You should go to the legal consultation company first. If this legal consultation company is not good, then find another one. As for the reason, it doesn't hurt to tell you. The leader of the main station did not give me my consent. I sold the overseas rights of The Voice privately.”

"This……"

Fat Orange was speechless for a moment.

She didn't know how to persuade her boss. Since this matter was on his side, he would definitely not let it go.

But, how could the main station do such a thing?
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Guoping replied to Xu Yi with a message saying that the deputy director did not agree with Xu Yi's plan, and then asked Xu Yi if both parties could compromise?
Xu Yi only replied with two words: Forget it. Why compromise?

I have the right in terms of law, morality, and justice, so why should I compromise?
In Xu Yi's view, compromise means bowing one's head.

To compromise is to give in to the forces of evil!
Well, although using the word "intentional evil force" to describe the other party is not appropriate. It's just a commercial behavior, not to mention harmful to the general public. But in Xu Yi's heart, he had already nailed the deputy director to the cross of evil.

Now the situation has become clear. The main station has violated Xu Yi's rights first, and Xu Yi wants to file a lawsuit.

Sue the main station!

This is quite explosive news in the entire entertainment industry.

Who can?
Who dares?
I don't even dare to think about it.

Isn’t this digging one’s own grave?

Behind the main station stood the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, and being an enemy of the main station meant that he no longer wanted to be in this circle.

Xu Yi's 'suicidal behavior' made Fat Orange worried about gains and losses.

But she still tried her best to find a lawyer, and soon found a lawyer who was willing to take on the lawsuit.

Xu Yi immediately made an appointment with a lawyer and briefly explained his situation.

"Mr. Xu, I have a general understanding of your situation." Lawyer Song was very professional. "Can you please give me the original copyright contract to take a look at?"

Xu Yi handed over the contract and said:

"Casual look."

"This contract was signed this year. It was signed with Director Liu Guoping of Channel 3 of the main station. The seal is also the special contract seal of the main station, and the signature is also there. It cannot be faked."

Lawyer Song quickly said: "I don't suspect that this thing is fake, don't get me wrong."

After carefully checking that the contract was correct, Lawyer Song said:

"Mr. Xu, I would like to know, what is your specific request?"

"Does the other party need to compensate for copyright fees, or additional damages?"

Xu Yi really didn't think much about this issue.

During the original peace talks, he just wanted to get back his copyright fees. But once he entered the litigation process, Xu Yi didn't care about the money anymore. What he wanted to fight for was just for a breath and to show it to others in the circle. If he wanted to bully me, Xu Yi, there was no way.

Thinking of this, Xu Yi said seriously:

"I want the station to publish an apology in the newspaper and clarify what happened on social media."

"As for compensation, I just want to claim one yuan."

This claim amount is of course not for money, but for face.

By the way, I also slapped the receptionist in the face.

When Lawyer Song heard this, he said in a daze: "A claim for one yuan?"

"Yes." Xu Yi replied firmly, "Just one yuan."

After hearing Xu Yi's affirmative answer, Lawyer Song finally understood what Xu Yi was going to do. The earthworm shakes the tree, not for profit, but for justice and justice. This also brought back a long-lost feeling in Lawyer Song's heart. As a lawyer, he upholds the dignity of the law and the interests of his clients.

He immediately said:
"it is good!"

"I will definitely do my best on this case!"

I took this case first because the remuneration offered by Xu Yi was good; and secondly because I could sue the headquarters as an individual. This kind of lawsuit will definitely attract widespread attention. If I lose, it won’t be too surprising; but if I win, , he, Lawyer Song, became famous!

Now, there is a third reason.

Claim for that dollar!
Lawyer Song went back to prepare the evidence chain materials and the prosecution process. Xu Yi was the only one left in the study.

A few minutes later, Fat Orange came in with a bowl of warm milk. He hesitated to speak, but finally opened his mouth:

"Boss, do we really want to do this?"

Xu Yi sighed slightly: "I have no choice."

"But, we don't lack that little money." Fat Orange expressed his considerations, "Once we have a bad relationship with the main station, it will always do more harm than good. After all, we are still in this circle... I put it harshly, If you offend the main station, you will most likely be banned, and you will have to work behind the scenes.”

This is the truth.

Xu Yi recalled that in his previous life, there was also a tough sketch actor who was hidden in the dark for his entire life because of a lawsuit he had with the central TV station.

Did the sketch actor ever regret it?

Perhaps one late night, he also regretted it.

But after so many years, if you ask him again, does he regret it?

His answer must be no regrets.

When a person reaches a certain age, the so-called career, money, and social status actually come second. Only when one is worthy of one's own heart will one's heart be at peace. Peace of mind is the greatest reward that time can give a person.

So Xu Yi chose this path.

Knowing that there are many difficulties and dangers, we must give it a try with the main station.

"Sister Ju, don't worry."

"If you are really banned, I won't treat you badly. Those who stay will continue to work as usual, and I won't owe you a penny. If you want to change jobs, I will pay you this year's bonus in advance. Everyone."

After saying these words, Fat Orange's eyes turned red.

She immediately shook her head and said:

"No, I am your manager for the rest of my life."

"If you are really banned, I will retire with you."

Listening to these sad words, Xu Yi said jokingly: "Don't worry, I only promised to give you this year's bonus, how can you rely on me for the rest of your life? Your behavior is unacceptable..."

Fat Orange didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Boss!"

At this critical moment, why is the boss still so heartless?

……

three days later.

The news of Xu Yi's lawsuit against the headquarters finally hit the social network like a heavy nuclear bomb.

Big melons in the entertainment industry are inherently popular, not to mention that the Xu Yi of today is no longer the Xu Yi of a year ago. At this time, Xu Yi's popularity, fame, and prestige have reached an unprecedented high point. Countless Xu Yi's fans, fans, and passers-by have all participated in this topic.

"My brother Xu is so brave! I'm so brave to sue the main station. I've seen you for a long time! You're so brave!"

"As expected of the man who wrote "The Lonely Warrior", he has talent!"

"Whether this lawsuit ends up winning or losing, I have decided that from now on I will be Brother Xu's biggest fan!"

"The front desk looks a bit ugly. To earn this kind of money... I don't even want to lose face!"

"Although I haven't seen anything specific yet, I will definitely support Xu Yi this time."

"Sue! Hire the best lawyer in the country. If the legal fees are not enough, I am willing to support you a little. Justice cannot be drowned!"

"I didn't expect that there would be such a good show after The Voice. Come on, Brother Xu!"

"Haha, the people are suing the officials. There is no point in having a bunch of bastards fussing over here! If this lawsuit can be won, I will run naked for 20 kilometers on live broadcast..." (End of Chapter)
