Chapter 4 3. The entertainment industry must abide by labor laws, right?
Chapter 4 3. The entertainment industry must also abide by labor laws, right?
Zhang Hanwen quickly came back to his senses, stared at Wang Cheng, suppressed the anger in his heart, and persuaded: "Wang Cheng, stop being so angry. There will be a performance tomorrow, we must seize the time to practice more..."
Wang Cheng rubbed his eyes, shook his head and refused, and said seriously: "Captain Zhang, I'm not trying to get angry with you. I want to sleep some more. I've only slept for less than five hours and I haven't had a good rest yet. Besides, I
I don’t think I need to practice more.”
Zhang Hanwen raised his voice: "Wang Cheng, you kept making mistakes during practice yesterday, so you need to practice more."
Wang Cheng still shook his head: "That was yesterday. Besides, if I don't sleep well now, I will make mistakes if I practice extra. What's the point of extra practice like that?"
Zhang Hanwen was stunned for a moment, and then he thought it was right!
With Wang Cheng like this, he is completely out of shape at first glance. He will definitely make various mistakes during practice, which will also affect himself and others. There is really no point in practicing more.
Zhang Hanwen frowned.
However, without more practice, he will not have much confidence in tomorrow's performance.
The other groups of opponents are all excellent trainees promoted by several other major companies. They are all very strong and have been practicing more every day recently.
How can they defeat their opponents if they don't practice more?
Wang Cheng looked at Zhang Hanwen, then looked at the other five team members, and said: "It seems that everyone is in a bad state. They haven't had a good rest, their bodies are tired, and their minds are not focused. What is the effect of this kind of practice?"
Zhang Hanwen looked at the other five team members and saw that everyone was indeed sleepy and slumped, and he was shaken in his heart.
Another young team member immediately said: "Yes, captain, if we sleep a little longer, the practice effect will be better."
Seeing that everyone had this idea, Zhang Hanwen couldn't force him anymore, so he could only say helplessly: "Okay, let's all sleep for another hour..."
"Long live the captain!"
"Okay, my bed is not cold yet, I will go back soon..."
"Thank you, captain..."
A few team members were afraid that Zhang Hanwen would regret it, so they cheered and hurriedly turned around and ran back to their rooms to continue sleeping.
boom……
Click!
Wang Cheng also closed the door directly, locked it, and quickly went to bed.
The dream of living to be 120 years old is not over yet, I hope it can continue...
Zhang Hanwen stood alone in the corridor, looked at Wang Cheng's door, recalled the scene just now, and felt that Wang Cheng had changed, no longer as careful and diligent as before.
If it were yesterday, he would be the first to knock on the door and call Wang Cheng, because he knew that Wang Cheng's efforts were no less than his.
But now Wang Cheng is sleeping in thinking about the method and doesn't want to practice...
"Could it be that I spoke too harshly last night, which made him feel discouraged and gave up on his debut?"
Zhang Hanwen began to reflect on himself.
Yesterday, Wang Cheng made several mistakes. Wang Cheng also contradicted him, causing him to get angry and say that Wang Cheng had no talent and was not suitable for debut. Then Wang Cheng ran away in anger.
Now seeing Wang Cheng again, Zhang Hanwen found that Wang Cheng seemed to have changed. Overnight, he no longer had the previous drive to prove himself.
Zhang Hanwen put down his thoughts and decided to pay attention to his attitude towards Wang Cheng in the future and stop attacking Wang Cheng. Then he turned around and went back to the room to sleep for a while.
"Captain Zhang, wait until I have slept for seven hours before calling me again!"
Wang Cheng's voice came from the room.
Zhang Hanwen suddenly felt angry again: "I told you, I can only sleep for one more hour..."
Wang Cheng said firmly again: "I won't get up until I have slept for seven hours. Goodbye, captain!"
If there wasn't enough time, he would ask for eight hours of sleep.
After speaking, there was no sound.
Zhang Hanwen would raise his fist and want to punch Wang Cheng's door to vent the anger in his heart.
However, he raised his fist and stopped.
Zhang Hanwen said loudly: "Wang Cheng, if we fail this time, it will be your responsibility! I will tell Mr. Liu of the company everything."
Wang Cheng said no more.
He simply closed his eyes and went to sleep, not caring about Zhang Hanwen's threat at all.
fail?
That would be best.
I don’t have to go on the show for a short period of time and can go back to the training base. Although I am quite tired at the training base and learn a lot every day, it is not as tiring as going on the show. I have more regular rest time every day.
There are two years left on the trainee contract.
After two years of working, the contract ends, and then he retires and lives in seclusion, takes good care of his health, and lives to be a hundred years old...
What if the company boss is angry and hides himself?
That would be great, you can lie down completely.
After one hour.
Zhang Hanwen first came to Wang Cheng's door and raised his hand several times to knock on the door, but he backed down when he thought of Wang Cheng's attitude and force an hour ago.
If Wang Cheng still refuses to cooperate and quarrels with himself, what will he do? What will other team members think if he repeatedly gives in?
After hesitating for a few minutes, Zhang Hanwen ignored Wang Cheng, called up the other five team members, and went to the practice room together.
"Captain, where is Wang Cheng?"
One of the team members asked doubtfully.
Several other people looked at Zhang Hanwen, looking forward to Zhang Hanwen's answer.
Zhang Hanwen said calmly: "Wang Cheng is not feeling well, let him rest a little longer today..."
Several people looked at each other, remained silent, and asked no more questions.
Physical discomfort?
Of course they know this is an excuse.
The way Wang Cheng and Zhang Hanwen were arguing just now didn't look like they were uncomfortable.
Several people had some admiration and envy for Wang Cheng. They admired Wang Cheng for actually rejecting Zhang Hanwen and refusing training, which they did not dare to do. At the same time, they also envied Wang Cheng for being able to sleep in late.
Another two hours passed, and it was eight o'clock in the morning.
Wang Cheng was woken up by the alarm clock he had set in advance. He stood up from the bed, stretched and felt refreshed.
After becoming seriously ill, he hadn't had such a relaxing sleep for a long time.
No pain, no itching, no need to take medicine, no need to hang hanging bottles, no need to smell the alcohol disinfectant in the ward...
So comfortable.
Wang Cheng came to the mirror and looked at his young and handsome self again. He was sure that everything that happened was real, and he was still very surprised in his heart.
"From today on, health comes first."
Wang Cheng looked at himself in the mirror and said loudly.
Then.
He simply washed up, put on his sports clothes and went out.
The day's plan begins in the morning.
Proper exercise in the morning is very good for the body.
When Wang Cheng was recuperating his body in the later years of his previous life, as long as his body could still move, he would insist on going out for a run when he got up in the morning, even if it was just a few hundred meters...
Without alerting anyone else, Wang Cheng quietly and slowly ran out of the shooting base. He did not run far, and just slowly ran in circles around the shooting base.
After running for about half an hour and sweating a little, Wang Cheng ended his first morning run in this world. He took out his phone and looked at the time. It was only half past eight.
I also saw a dozen missed calls above.
It showed that the calls were from Zhang Hanwen and Zhang Xiuhua.
Wang Cheng did not call back immediately, but found a nearby breakfast shop and ordered a cup of millet porridge to nourish the stomach, a tea egg to supplement nutrition, and a white-flour steamed bun. He did not choose fried dough sticks or greasy pancakes.
, while eating, we walked back to the shooting base.
When I walked to the door of the shooting base, I had just finished my breakfast. I threw the cups, bags, straws, etc. into the trash can at the door. I smiled at the security guard who looked at me in surprise at the door and walked in!
As soon as she walked into the door, Zhang Xiuhua walked out quickly, her face full of anxiety. She came over and took Wang Cheng's hand and looked up and down: "Wang Cheng, are you okay?"
Wang Cheng was surprised and looked at himself up and down. He was fine. Can't you see?
"I'm fine!"
Zhang Xiuhua breathed a sigh of relief.
Just now she learned that Wang Cheng didn't go to training and was sleeping in the room. She thought Wang Cheng was still angry, so she went to talk to Wang Cheng in person. Naturally, she couldn't find anyone. She asked everyone around, but they didn't see him.
Wang Cheng!
This frightened her.
In the past two years, there have been many incidents of trainees committing suicide.
The competition among trainees is very stressful. There are at least dozens of trainees competing under the same company, and hundreds of trainees under large companies, not to mention tens of thousands of trainees from other companies.
But these are a group of teenagers in their teens and twenties, and their psychological endurance is not strong. Some of them can even be said to have glassy hearts, so some trainees will not be able to bear the pressure and commit suicide.
However, such things will not be known to the outside world.
After all, trainees are just trainees, not famous celebrities, and no one pays attention to them.
Two trainees under Dongxing Entertainment attempted suicide last year, and the company finally terminated their contracts and sent them home.
Zhang Xiuhua was frightened when he couldn't find Wang Cheng just now. He suddenly thought of the two 18-year-old trainees in the company who attempted suicide last year. So he was frightened and frantically looked for Wang Cheng everywhere, even going to the monitoring room to investigate.
I checked the surveillance and found that Wang Cheng left the gate around eight o'clock.
Zhang Xiuhua just wanted to go find Wang Cheng when she met Wang Cheng at the door.
After checking up and down and seeing that Wang Cheng had not fallen or fallen into the water, Zhang Xiuhua felt relieved and then asked with a serious face: "Wang Cheng, where did you go just now? You went out alone.
Do you know how worried we are? When I came here, did I tell each of you that you cannot leave the filming base without permission? If you want to leave for something, you must get my permission..."
Wang Cheng relaxed all over, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and said calmly: "Sister Hua, I was just running outside the door to relax, had breakfast and then came back. I am nineteen years old and three months old, and I am an adult now.
,Do not worry……"
A hint of surprise and speechlessness appeared on Zhang Xiuhua's face again!
Zhang Hanwen and five team members have been practicing for more than two hours. Everyone is very attentive and urgent. She just delivered breakfast.
As a result, Wang Cheng didn't get up until eight o'clock. Instead of practicing with the team, he went out for a run alone?
Have you given up?
Zhang Xiuhua had complicated emotions in her heart. She felt that she hated the fact that iron could not become steel. However, she did not want to reprimand Wang Cheng before the performance. She was afraid of affecting Wang Cheng's mentality and performance status. He just said: "Then you have rested today? Zhang Hanwen and the others have already
I’ve been practicing for a while, and I’m waiting for you to come over and practice together. Come over quickly.”
Wang Cheng took out his mobile phone and looked at it. It showed eight forty-five. Then he walked to his dormitory and shook his head: "Don't worry, it's only eight forty-five now. It's not even time to go to work yet."
Forehead……
Zhang Xiuhua, who was walking behind Wang Cheng, stopped again and stared at Wang Cheng with wide eyes: "Working hours? What working hours?"
Wang Cheng's steps were relaxed, as if he were an old man walking in the park. He said softly: "It's normal working hours? Isn't it nine o'clock?"
Zhang Xiuhua felt that Wang Cheng was deliberately looking for trouble to get angry with her, just because he didn't want to practice. He frowned and stared at Wang Cheng. He showed the aura that his manager should have and said seriously: "Wang Cheng, I am very serious.
Let me tell you, this opportunity was obtained by the company at a high cost for you. If you mess up, it will be very difficult for you to get such an opportunity in the future."
"You still have a two-year contract with the company. You don't want to waste another two years if you fail, right? By then you will also miss school time. What else can you do in society?"
"Moreover, in the contract, you are obligated to cooperate with the company's arrangements... I think you should understand what I mean. If you don't cooperate, at least you will be hidden by the company, at worst you will be held liable for breach of contract."
"The amount of compensation for breach of contract is 200 million! With your parents' income, you won't be able to afford 200 million in ten lifetimes."
Zhang Xiuhua emphasized the seriousness of this matter to Wang Cheng with an emphasis on the figure of 200 million.
Even though all the trainees have long-term child labor contracts with a 28% commission, and they are all unknown teenagers in their teens and twenties, the amount of liquidated damages each and every one of them is more exaggerated than the super giants in the entertainment industry.
The starting price is 100 million, in order to eliminate the possibility of being poached by other companies.
Because Wang Cheng originally requested a short-term contract, not only was the share ratio reduced, but the compensation for breach of contract was also doubled, up to 200 million.
Most people will be frightened and dizzy just by seeing this number.
However, Wang Cheng still looked calm, walked into the elevator step by step with his hands behind his back, and said to Zhang Xiuhua who followed behind him: "Sister Hua, where did I fail to comply with the company's arrangements? Didn't I go to the show? Or didn't go to training?"
"Besides, Sister Hua, I remember that the main premise of the contract is to abide by the country's laws and regulations, right?"
Zhang Xiuhua was stunned for a moment, looking at Wang Cheng who was trying to reason with him, and felt really strange.
And Wang Cheng is too lazy to play a submissive young man at this moment.
No more pretending...
Showdown.
I want to retire, I want to lie down.
Wang Cheng continued: "The company contract must also abide by the national labor law, right? I work according to the national working hours, from 9 to 5, eight hours a day. What is wrong? Or is the company more powerful than the national law? It is not necessary to abide by the law.
?”
Labor Law?
Nine to five?
Zhang Xiuhua's head is full of question marks.
What the hell?
Who in the entertainment industry talks about this?
Let alone the entertainment industry.
Among all the capitalists in China, who cares about labor laws?
Who doesn’t squeeze you like crazy? Work overtime like crazy? You don’t accept it?
Then pack up and get out immediately!
Do you think you are a public servant?
But……
You don't have to care in your heart.
Zhang Xiuhua did not dare to publicly say that the company did not abide by the labor law. Her brain was idle for a while. When the elevator arrived and the door opened, her thoughts straightened out a little and she said: "Wang Cheng, this, labor law is one thing, you also
It depends on the actual situation and needs of the company! Now, the company needs you to work overtime..."
After thinking for a while, Zhang Xiuhua remembered the term working overtime.
Wang Cheng chuckled, looked back at Zhang Xiuhua, and said, "Sister Hua, then I refuse to work overtime, and I don't want overtime pay."
Zhang Xiuhua was silent again, gritted his teeth and said: "Wang Cheng, this is the company's rule. Everyone must work overtime. When you are done with this period of time, I can give you a holiday to rest..."
Wang Cheng shook his head: "Sister Hua, I'm sorry, I still refuse to work overtime. I don't need the extra vacation. I just want a normal weekend."
Working from 9 to 5 and having two weekends off?
Why don't you go to heaven?
Zhang Xiuhua's scalp was numb with anger, her eyes glared at Wang Cheng, and she said seriously: "Wang Cheng, if you continue to act like this, I will let the company hide you. At the same time, I will sue you for not implementing the company's rules and regulations during the contract period, thereby breaching the contract.
Pursue your liquidated damages..."
Surprise flashed in Wang Cheng's eyes: "Okay, Sister Hua, tell the company to hide me now? Can I pack my things and leave now? Being hidden means I don't need to go back to the training base. Can I go home?"
"you……"
Zhang Xiuhua raised her head slightly and stared into Wang Cheng's eyes. She saw that Wang Cheng seemed to be telling the truth and was not worried at all about being hidden by the company.
Wang Cheng added: "As for breach of contract, I very much welcome the company to sue me for breach of contract because I refused to work overtime. I think the law will give me a fair judgment."
Huhuhu...
Zhang Xiuhua was so angry that she breathed rapidly, her face turned red, and her fat body kept rising and falling.
She knew in her heart that the so-called hiding and suing were just her words to scare Wang Cheng. It was indeed impossible for the company to sue Wang Cheng for breach of contract because he did not practice more.
Unless Wang Cheng does not accept the programs and performances arranged by the company, thereby causing losses, then it is indeed a breach of contract, and the company can decide whether to sue Wang Cheng for breach of contract.
Moreover, Wang Cheng's looks are really good. The company has high expectations for Wang Cheng and expects Wang Cheng to make a lot of money for them, so it is even more impossible to hide and sue!
This is also the reason why Zhang Xiuhua is still trying to persuade Wang Cheng. If other ordinary trainees dared to act like this, Zhang Xiuhua would just take him back to the company and hide it for a few years without saying a word.
Wang Cheng walked into his dormitory and prepared to wash his face again.
Zhang Xiuhua stood at the door, stared at Wang Cheng and said coldly: "Okay, I hope you can arrive at the practice room on time at nine o'clock..."
Wang Cheng turned on the alarm clock on his mobile phone and showed it to Zhang Xiuhua: "Sister Hua, don't worry, I have set the alarm clock and I will never be late!"
There are several times on the alarm clock page.
Six o'clock.
Eight fifty-five.
Twelve fifty-five.
Fifteen fifty-five.
Nineteen fifty-five.
Twenty-two o'clock!
Zhang Xiuhua frowned and asked in a deep voice: "What do these times mean?"
Wang Cheng washed his face with hot water and replied: "Commuting time, I go to work at nine in the morning and get off at one in the afternoon. I need to take a nap during my lunch break, so I take a three-hour break, go to work at four in the afternoon, and finish at eight in the evening.
It’s exactly eight hours after work. Sister Hua, don’t worry. You see, I set each alarm clock five minutes in advance. I won’t leave early or be late. By the way, I suggest the company put a time card machine..."
call……
Zhang Xiuhua took another deep breath to suppress the annoyance in her heart. She couldn't help clenching her hands into fists. She resisted the urge to slap Wang Cheng. She looked at the twenty-two point and gritted her teeth and asked: "Twenty-two."
What does dot mean?”
Wang Cheng answered seriously: "That's the time to go to bed at night. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, going to bed at ten o'clock in the evening is the best time to rest. It allows the body's internal organs to get a better rest, which is good for health and for teenagers like me.
As my body develops, I sleep until I get up at 6 a.m. the next day, which is exactly eight hours of sleep!”
Zhang Xiuhua still gritted her teeth, stared at Wang Cheng, and asked word by word: "Why don't you take the public examination?"
Wang Cheng shook his head with regret and replied: "I have thought about it, but I am not old enough and have not enough education! It is impossible..."
When he went to bed at night, he really thought about taking the civil service examination, entering a leisure unit, commuting on time every day, reading the newspaper, drinking tea, and waiting for retirement. Wouldn't it be nice?
The most important thing is that if you successfully pass the public examination, you can directly terminate the contract with the company!
pity……
He became a trainee after graduating from high school. He didn't even have a bachelor's degree. It was impossible for him to take the public examination in this life.
It is impossible to reach the end of the universe in this life.
boom……
Zhang Xiuhua closed the door and walked quickly to her office. She was afraid that if she continued to talk to Wang Cheng, she would slap Wang Cheng in the face and roared in a low voice: "Go to the practice room right away..."
"
Wang Cheng's unhurried voice came from the room: "Sister Hua, there are still a few minutes."
boom……
Zhang Xiuhua entered her office and threw the door out in anger, which could be heard almost on the entire floor.
