Chapter 29 Weird Contract
"The Fascinating Life" is one of the top variety shows in China, and it is currently the best in terms of ratings and influence.
Although Mango Capital often lets its young artists form groups to work without any camera shots, the problem is...
Ma Xiaoshu is not one of his own yet, he has not signed a contract with Qianyu Media.
With Long Cuihua’s unprofitable and non-drafting character, how could she give such good resources to unsigned artists for nothing? Even signed artists...
That's why Director Zhang Yang found it strange. It's no wonder that even an idiot like Ma Xiaoshu suspected that there was something wrong with the contract.
Because this is so abnormal!
Finally, Zhang Yang found some clues on page 23 of the contract, in a very inconspicuous place:
"... In this recording event, Party B participates as an artist under Qianyu Media, and the remuneration is distributed by Qianyu Media... Qianyu Media has the priority to sign contracts with Party B. Without the permission of Qianyu Media, Party B is not allowed to sign other contracts
Brokerage company…”
Got it!
This is a means of locking the signing target in advance. Although the signing was not signed in advance, it blocked the possibility of Ma Xiaoshu signing with other brokerage companies.
Unless he can afford the sky-high breach of contract.
Zhang Yang closed the contract and glanced at Ma Xiaoshu.
Obviously, the dull Ma Xiaoshu did not see those "key terms", and his temperament was as confused as ever.
"Sign it! What's the problem?"
Zhang Yang encouraged, after all, this was a task assigned by his immediate superior, and he didn't want to suffer.
Moreover, in his opinion, Ma Xiaoshu was able to be booked by Long Jie in advance because he was just unlucky. Many people asked for the opportunity but could not get it.
"Director, if you don't sign, will your salary be deducted?"
Ma Xiaoshu asked seriously.
Zhang Yang: "Ah? That's not possible."
Ma Xiaoshu pushed the contract away: "Then I won't sign it."
Zhang Yang couldn't figure it out: "Why? That's "The Fascinating Life". Don't you want to go? I envy you. Although the advertising fee of 50,000 yuan is not much..."
"Although fifty thousand yuan is a lot, I think there is something wrong with this contract."
"You...understand?"
"Of course! I didn't understand."
"You don't understand anything, why do you say there's something wrong with the contract?"
"Any contract that I can't understand must have something wrong with it!"
"ah???"
Zhang Yang also thinks it makes sense. Any good contract will not be written in a way that people cannot understand.
Ma Xiaoshu said: "Look, I understand the contract with Wugu Rice Farm. The brand thought I had a healthy image, so it chose me. What about the latter one? I don't understand why they asked me to record the program at all. Why did they give it to me?"
So much money.”
"This, this, this..."
"Goodbye director, it's time for me to sell cold shrimps."
Zhang Yang watched Ma Xiaoshu leave and was stunned for a long time. This was the first time he encountered someone rejecting Long Cuihua, rejecting Qianyu Media, and rejecting "The Fascinating Life".
This kid, wants to go to heaven?
Don’t you want to advance to the national competition?
He had no choice but to take out his cell phone and report to Long Jie.
…
"Sister Tracey, regarding inviting Ma Xiaoshu to the "Escape Room" show, how are you doing there?"
"Lili, I just asked. The Western Division said that Ma Xiaoshu is working hard to write songs. I'm afraid he doesn't have time. The original singer competition is very stressful. Moreover, participating in other programs in the middle of the competition will not have a good impact."
"Okay! When I come back from Shuzhou, I'll ask you to have coffee."
"Are you in Shuzhou?"
"Ah? Oh, this... there is an announcement. I have something else to do, let's talk about it later."
After hanging up the phone, the smile on Yang Li's face became even brighter.
Long Cuihua's English name is Tracey, and her Chinese stage name is actually Long Cuiqian, but people prefer to call her Long Cuihua, because she is an old fox.
Twenty-seven-year-old Yang Li is a little fox at best.
In the tea room, partner and manager Zhao Ruxiao poured tea for Yang Li: "Is it rejected?"
Yang Li leaned lazily on the sofa, her body soft and bulging, full of voluptuousness, and her voice was particularly soft and delicate:
“Expected.”
Zhao Ruxiao said: "You don't really want to sign that Ma Xiaoshu, do you? We at Jiaxing have always been deeply involved in film and television, and we have no experience in training singers. Moreover, I have also watched that guy's video. He has talent, but his looks are hard to describe.
, it’s not your fault to praise it yourself..."
Yang Li: "Okay, asking him to be on the show is just a smoke bomb. My real target is Niu Ziming. That guy has the potential to be top-notch."
Zhao Ruxiao understood.
In the early days, Qianyu Media had a monopoly on the contract signing rights of the "Shining Boys" contestants, but was jointly strangled by several other major agencies, and it was almost impossible to continue.
Long Cuihua can only give up part of the contract share to other companies, so Jiaxing Media also has opportunities, but there are not many places, so it needs to be calculated carefully.
With Jiaxing's requirements for good looks, Ma Xiaoshu would not be considered at all, but that Niu Ziming is really a peerless beauty.
Zhao Ruxiao was greedy.
…
On the other side, at the Xiangzhou TV headquarters, Long Cuihua was talking to Zhang Yang on the phone:
"What? He didn't sign the contract? Does he know something? And... in the past two days, has Ma Xiaoshu had contact with anyone outside? You let him go out to buy vegetables... sell cold shrimps? Zhang Yang, what the hell are you doing?
Is it pig brain?"
After scolding Zhang Yang, Long Cuihua rubbed her temples, feeling a headache.
Will Little Fox Yang really go to Shuzhou to hook up with Ma Xiaoshu?
As for that?
Ma Xiaoshu's talent is visible to the naked eye.
But it's still just a little transparent, so it won't be rolled up like this, right?
Long Cuihua didn't care much about him at first, until three brokerage companies sent invitations. Huayou Brothers planned to invite Ma Xiaoshu to "The King of Masked Singer", Yingwang Entertainment intended to let Ma Xiaoshu participate in the Sichuan special episode of "Flavour", and this Yang
Little fox...
If there was only one family, Long Cuihua wouldn't take it seriously, but when three families sent their intentions at the same time, she couldn't help but ignore it.
Hence, the weird contract of "The Fascinating Life".
It's all coincidence and accident.
What was even more surprising was that Ma Xiaoshu refused to sign the contract.
How about... eliminate him?
Long Cuihua thought of this.
Knock knock knock~
There was a knock on the door.
"Please come in."
Long Cuihua forced herself to cheer up.
A thin man came in and said with a smile: "Stop pretending! Just rest when you are tired. I just finished recording the show and came over to see you."
"Thank you, Lao He."
As expected, Long Cuihua slumped in her chair and pretended to be dead. Training camps had already started in all four competition regions. As the chief director, she was indeed very tired.
"I brought you some fruit wine, want to try it?"
The person who came was none other than He Jiyong, a brother of Xiangzhou TV Station. He was Long Cuihua’s old classmate, and the two had a close relationship.
He Jiyong poured some wine for Long Cuihua, he was here to help relieve her stress.
The two started chatting.
After a while, He Jiyong suddenly asked: "Hey, Tracy, that newcomer Ma Xiaoshu you recommended, I went to search for it. I almost laughed to death. He brought a welding gun to participate in the talent show, and even formed a group to eat bubbles backstage during the live broadcast.
Face...this kid is talented and has a great sense of variety. He is a natural! He is a good prospect."
There are not many newcomers who can casually insert new people into He Jiyong's programs, Long Cuihua is one of them.
Long Cuihua's expression suddenly became strange: "He... didn't sign a contract."
He Jiyong opened his mouth wide: "Has this Ma Xiaoshu always been so brave? Rejecting you and me at the same time? Is there something wrong with his brain?"
Chapter completed!
