Let’s talk about the contract again
The reaction to being exposed to Kim Heechul was more severe than the last time he was exposed to Yook Sungjae. The dizziness in his brain made Chen Chen almost lose his balance.
It's not that Chen Chen's body has become weaker, but the memory of Kim Heechul in his head is much more than that of Yook Sungjae, and the impact is not on the same level.
After returning to normal, it still felt like the memory fragments were stored in high-definition videos in his head. Chen Chen understood a lot about Kim Heechul in an instant.
The most familiar thing is that he later fell in love with someone from the popular South Korean girl group Tuvas. At that time, Chen Chen was the one who was always on the Internet.
As for the others, most of them are fragments related to variety shows. When I was a child, I heard a few songs related to Kim Heechul and it became very clear.
In general, these memories that suddenly became clear are of no use at all. There is other information on IU's side, and even worse, there are clips of the next few songs, so he just ugh.
…
After a group of people arrived, the program team distributed the materials.
Chen Chen looked at it carefully for a long time, but couldn't find any problems. This made him a little disappointed. Last night, Chen Chen read a lot of information about sweet and sour pork with the attitude of coming back to find fault the next day.
But this also illustrates something, that is, if something controversial appears on the show in South Korea, it is 100% intentional! Don’t let them go!
Fortunately, there was no sign of trouble in the program Chen Chen participated in this time.
After everything was settled, the meeting adjourned, and Chen Chen suddenly received a notice from the company.
"what's the situation?"
Chen Chen felt a little dizzy when he looked at Jin Chengying, whom he hadn't seen for a while, and Lin Nanyi, who was already waiting here.
"The company plans to discuss the contract signing with you again." Jin Chengying looked solemn, "This time the message is not through my mouth, but to seriously treat you as an artist to sign the contract."
"Is there any other information, Brother Cheng Ying? This is very important to me."
Chen Chen rubbed his hands, somewhat excited.
He has suffered enough because of not having a brokerage company, and he is not confident that he can continue to do big jobs to maintain his current popularity, so if the conditions for opening the Waiji Company are not too excessive, Chen Chen is willing to
I agreed to sign a short-term contract.
"I definitely don't know. I'm just a small wage earner. Don't think I'm a big shot." Jin Chengying was in the same uneasy mood, "The company called me here this time, maybe they planned to arrange for me too."
It’s hard to say this.”
"Brother Chen, don't look at me. I don't know anything." Lin Nan became more relaxed at the moment, "I guess it's better to be bound to Brother Chen, there won't be anything strange."
"It means we can only look at the company's sincerity, right? It's a bit boring."
Chen Chen couldn't help but sigh. He didn't like the feeling that the initiative was in the hands of others.
"You and I are just fish on the chopping board. What's the point of talking about it?" Jin Chengying played with the cup in his hand indifferently, "Just like your current popularity, the company can easily copy it several times.
Come on, others are not at the same level as us."
"I don't like hearing what you are saying." Chen Chen raised his eyebrows slightly, "Why is the company so anxious to sign me if it can just copy it? Give me a reason."
"Hey, the young man has quite a lot of confidence, that's a good thing." Jin Chengying smiled half-heartedly, "Don't let the people in the company overwhelm you later. They are all experienced negotiators, and they are very good at handling young people like you."
"Brother Cheng Ying, I'm just a little kid." Chen Chen said in a joking tone: "Actually, in terms of soul, I'm already an old man."
"..."
This topic was a bit cold, so no one picked it up.
"Come on, come on, people from the company are here."
Fortunately, the sharp-eyed Lin Nan discovered the situation outside in time, and the frozen air was relieved in time.
…
After the conversation started, the other two people were driven away. After all, negotiating the contract was Chen Chen's business, and the other two were not even considered partners.
The person who came to talk was one of the directors of the artist management department.
Chen Chen knew him because he was promoted from the trainee department before, and Chen Chen almost made his debut under him back then.
"The company plans to give you a normal artist contract, please take a look." Manager Yang handed over a contract with the Waiji Company's seal stamped on it.
"Well, let me take a look."
Chen Chen took it with both hands, frowned and read it carefully.
Normal, this contract is indeed normal, but this normal is normal for South Korean trainees’ debut contracts.
In the eyes of Chen Chen now,
The length of the seven-year contract, the two-to-eight profit sharing, and various terms that are beneficial to the company such as following the company's arrangements are all things that make Chen Chen a little irritated.
What Waiji Company pays is what an entertainment agency should pay.
"I worked hard for more than half a year and worked on my own to gain some fame, but in the end I was still at the level of a trainee." Chen Chen pursed his lips and looked at Director Yang steadily, "I can't accept it."
"What specific aspect is unacceptable?" Manager Yang said slowly: "We can all discuss it again. Things like contracts need to be polished little by little before we can get an answer that satisfies both parties."
Old fox! If you really say that there are any shortcomings in the contract, then you are in the trap, because it means that you have acknowledged all other contents in the contract.
Can Chen Chen admit it?! Is Chen Chen living up to the conditions stated in the contract?!
of course not.
Fortunately, Chen Chen is the time traveler of an uncle's soul instead of his real age, otherwise he would have definitely suffered this loss.
"I can't accept the company's view of me. I think that judgment is not complete enough." Chen Chen pushed back the contract, "Let me develop freely for a while and let the company take a look. I am confident that the company will understand me again."
I."
"..."
Rejecting the contract showed his loyalty to the company and his words were perfect. Manager Yang suddenly couldn't understand the young man opposite him.
"You mean, there are all problems with this contract?"
Manager Yang narrowed his eyes and leaned forward slightly, but his tone remained calm.
Use your power to oppress others, use the big to bully the small.
I am older and you are younger, so I bully you because of my lack of experience; I am in a high position and you are of low status, so I don’t have enough momentum to suppress you.
But Chen Chen only gently leaned back on the chair and said lightly.
"Yes, the people who drew up this contract took it for granted."
"Even a stupid company with a reputation for strict contracts in the industry would not have such a contract, let alone a soy sauce bottle. What do you think?"
I'm not your employee yet, don't shout so loud, thank you.
Also, do you really think you are the only one in the industry who wants to sign me? This is hilarious!
