The legend of rebirth
Chapter 128
Chapter 128
Ye Luo was surprised, and turned to look at his girlfriend.
From these words, he heard obvious anger, this was the first time since he knew Chu More'er that she was angry.
In his impression, Chu Mo'er's words and deeds on weekdays are very considerate of others' feelings, never have strong words, and even rarely have negative emotions.
Just now, when Xiong Pinggui took out the harsh standard contract, she was just a little sullen, and even spoke in a soft tone.
But this time, when Universal Entertainment used her as a bargaining chip to put pressure on Ye Luo intentionally or unintentionally, she was uncharacteristically resolute.
As soon as Chu Mo'er uttered these words, not to mention Ye Luo, even Xiong Pinggui was stunned for a moment.
"If that's the case, I won't sign a contract with Universal!" Chu Mo'er reiterated again as she stared closely at the professional manager with phoenix eyes.
"Don't sign?" At this time, the legal manager Zhang who had been sitting opposite Ye Luo and didn't speak, finally came back to his senses, and said with a straight face, "I'm afraid this is up to Ms. Chu, Ms. Chu, don't forget, you You signed an agreement of intent with Universal Entertainment, do you want to breach the agreement?"
Hearing the breach of contract, Chu Mo'er's whole body shook slightly, and she choked for a moment.
Ye Luo stretched out his hand and patted her on the back lightly, signaling that there is no need to worry. Then he looked at the manager and asked lightly, "Break the contract? Please forgive my bad memory. I don't know what the breach of contract that Manager Zhang said refers to what is it then?"
"You are not allowed to join any record company within two years, and you are not allowed to participate in any commercial performances in the name of individuals or young girls."
This manager is in charge of legal affairs, and his professional level seems to be good, and he knows the agreement by heart, "Once the contract is breached, a liquidated damages of 500 million will be required."
"I see." Ye Luo seemed to have been reminded, then turned to ask Xiong Pinggui, and said with a slight smile, "Vice President Xiong, do you think these consequences are serious for me and Chu Mo'er now?" ?”
Xiong Pinggui was taken aback for a moment, and then his brain started to work crazily.
Universal Entertainment, now the largest record company in China, has the most powerful strength and resources in the music industry, and has always been in a strong position for its singers.
This kind of strength, whether it is the board of directors or his professional manager, has formed a kind of thinking inertia: Facing the invitation of Universal, no one will refuse. Every artist who faces Universal Entertainment, except for Deng Qi The queen-level singer, the others are trembling and submissive, for fear of offending the record company with the largest scale and the widest channels in China.
Ye Luo and Chu Mo'er are only 40 years old together. Xiong Pinggui originally thought that as long as he did some tricks, they would naturally submit obediently.
But Ye Luo's rhetorical question was like a heavy hammer, which woke him up instantly!
This young man is not easy to deal with!
Just when Xiong Pinggui thought so, Ye Luo smiled slightly, and went on straight: "If it is an ordinary draft singer, the price of such a breach of contract is indeed unbearable. Two years of banning is enough for a draft singer The singers are silent, and the liquidated damages of 500 million is a huge financial pressure for these singers who have just started their careers."
Having said that, Ye Luo changed his tone and said, "But is Mo'er an ordinary draft singer? I don't think so. Let's not talk about Mo'er's own qualifications and abilities. Just the two years of silence, yes It doesn't matter at all to Mo'er, she can just finish her studies. And two years later, let me be crazy, as long as I continue to write new songs for her to sing, no matter which platform it is released on, it will not be difficult for her to become popular."
"Oh, Mr. Ye, Ms. Chu is so popular now, why do you have to wait until two years later?" Xiong Pinggui wiped the sweat from his face.
"That's right, Mo'er is very popular now, and it is true that there is no need to wait until two years later, because even if the contract is breached, it is only 500 million." Ye Luo smiled slightly and said, "Does Vice President Xiong think that I, Ye Luo, are now , can’t raise the money?”
"This..." Xiong Pinggui was speechless for a while, he knew that what Ye Luo said was true.
In fact, when the initial agreement of intent was drafted, even Universal Entertainment did not expect that the cutting-edge girls and Chu More'er would become popular to such an extent.
Now it seems that the restrictions set at the beginning are still too childish.
In just one month, in the eyes of Universal Entertainment, the top four contestants who would be more or less wary of this agreement have almost fully fledged, and among them, Chu Mo'er can easily break free.
And the reason for all this, consciously or unconsciously, was Ye Luo in front of him.
Ye Luo's seven new songs in a row made the young girls continue to heat up, which greatly exceeded Universal Entertainment's original estimate, and also made this previous agreement of intent weak and weak.
The liquidated damages of 500 million is really not a problem for Ye Luo now.As long as he said something, other record companies except Universal, such as Dream Records, Tian Lai Music Field, Sunshine Records, etc., would be overjoyed to hand over the check with both hands, and by the way, they would also send a post of music director.
The price of breaking the contract is actually not serious for Ye Luo and Chu Mo'er.
But on the other hand, no matter which record company Chu Mo'er and Ye Luo went to for the 500 million, it would be a huge irreparable loss for Universal Entertainment.
Their current market price is far more than 500 million. After all, the initiative of this negotiation has always been in his hands!
Xiong Pinggui couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat again, because he found that in this negotiation, Universal's advantage is really not that big.
However, the legal manager Zhang opposite Ye Luo seemed unconvinced, snorted coldly, and said, "Mr. Ye, please don't ignore the comprehensive strength of our Universal Entertainment. We have the best lawyer team. If Ms. Chu really default, we can..."
"Manager Zhang!" Xiong Pinggui hurriedly interrupted.Then he turned his head and smiled at Ye Luo, "Hehe, there is nothing beyond legal principles, so why would we use that agreement of intent to embarrass Miss Chu? After all, we came here with sincerity."
While talking, Xiong Pinggui turned his head and winked, signaling this rigid legal manager not to open his mouth.
After stopping Manager Zhang from speaking with his eyes, Xiong Pinggui looked at Ye Luo with a bright smile on his face: "If there was anything inappropriate between me and Manager Zhang just now, Mr. Ye and Ms. Chu Haihan, we Universal, we are very sincere in inviting Ms. Chu and Mr. Ye, and Mr. Ye, you see, the attention of public opinion is so intense now, if the negotiation breaks down, I think it will be bad for everyone."
Ye Luo smiled noncommittally, and drank the tea in front of him.
As expected of a professional manager, Xiong Pinggui was not at all offended by Ye Luo's indifferent behavior. Seeing that Ye Luo did not speak, he immediately said, "How about this, Mr. Ye, do you and Ms. Chu have any specific requirements?" , can be discussed in detail.”
Seeing that the other party let go, Ye Luo knew that it was time to make a statement, so she nodded and said, "Of course there are demands, but I haven't thought about the specifics yet. I don't think Vice President Xiong doesn't want us to talk so hastily." Let’s go. We’re going back to Shangdu this afternoon, so let’s talk about further matters after you come to Shangdu.”
Xiong Pinggui was taken aback for a moment, and said, "Mr. Ye, if it takes too long..."
But Ye Luo stood up, stretched out his hand and said, "Let's do this first, Vice President Xiong should have our contact information. You can contact us directly after you arrive in Shangdu. Before we have a clear result with Universal, we I will not be in contact with other companies for the time being, so please rest assured."
Seeing that Ye Luo had made up his mind, Xiong Pinggui had no choice but to stand up and shake hands with Ye Luo: "Well, we will arrive at Shangdu as soon as possible, and I hope Mr. Ye will be ready by then."
……
After seeing off the negotiator of Universal Entertainment, Ye Luo glanced at Chu Mo'er who was beside her, and said with a smile, "As expected of Fairy Miaoyin, she looked so good when she got angry just now."
Chu Mo'er was a little embarrassed, and said softly, "Did I be too impulsive just now?"
Ye Luo shook her head: "I know, you've always been quiet, but this time you got angry because of me."
"Yeah, they're going too far." Chu Mo'er frowned slightly, "They actually want to use my contract to bind you, so I won't let them do that."
Ye Luo said solemnly: "This Vice President Xiong is still difficult to deal with. After returning to Shangdu, we need to find a professional who understands this."
"En." Chu Mo'er nodded.
While the two were talking, Wang Nicole ran out in a hurry and said with a smile, "Wow! Mo'er, I found good news on the Internet!"
"What good news?" Chu Mo'er asked.
"It's about Mo'er's advertisement invitation, not just one!"
……
In the elevator of the guest house of Tianjing Entertainment Channel, Zhang Xing, the legal manager of Universal Entertainment, looked at Xiong Pinggui beside him with a gloomy face, and hesitated to speak.
Xiong Pinggui glanced at him and said, "I know what you're thinking. If we use a team of lawyers to stalk Ye Luo and Chu Mo'er, their reputation will be damaged, and they will even pay more than 500 million yuan." Big price."
"Then why..."
"But we can't do this." Xiong Pinggui interrupted, "Now we have received dozens of large companies' advertising endorsement invitations to Chu More'er, and the advertising costs involved have reached hundreds of millions. If we completely fall out with them, it will Will your lawyer team give me hundreds of millions of endorsement fees?"
"..." Manager Zhang was silent for a while.
"I just hope that the cooked duck will never fly." Xiong Pinggui sighed, "Otherwise, I, the vice president, and you, the legal manager, don't have to do it."
