PS Chapter 68 – New Contract New Beginning
There were three people who had just appeared at the entrance of the coffee shop. At the front was a tall middle-aged man, about 40 years old, with a straight suit.
Behind him were a woman in a white dress and a slender man with glasses.
Zhao Deping knows this tall man and is very familiar with him.
Wu Hongming, Operations Director of [Whale TV]!
Zhao Deping and Wu Hongming are not only forr colleagues, but also old friends who have known each other for many years. But their forr friendship has long disappeared, and now it is not too much for both sides to say that they are enemies.
Seeing Wu Hongming, Zhao Deping imdiately understood.
He was fooled by Lu Chen!
Lu Chen didn’t have the intention of signing a contract with StarryLive dia at all. He knew that Zhao Deping was Super Administrator 002!
Zhao Deping suddenly turned back and saw, with no surprise, that Lu Chen’s face was full of mockery.
That’s an undisguised sarcasm!
The face of the Starry Live Operations Managent Manager turned purple. He has a hard ti breathing and beca a little dizzy. He supported himself as he didn’t want to make a fool of himself on the spot.
He really lost too much face today!
Zhao Deping thought that if he were to personally went out to deal with a 20-year-old newcor, everything would be easy. He had no idea that the opposite party would play with him, in order to take revenge on his previous discord.
He flew more than 2,000 kiloters to the Capital, simply to send his face to the door!
What makes his blood boil was that just now Lu Chen also talked to him seriously about the contract. His acting skills were superb enough for him to mix in the film and television circles!
This was more than just revenge. Zhao Deping soon realized.
Lu Chen is using him, or, more accurately, StarryLive dia, as a bargaining chip to negotiate a new contract with [Whale TV]. Otherwise, why would Wu Hongming appear so coincidentally?
“You!”
Zhao Deping wanted to scold, but countless words were stuck in his throat, and finally only one word was spit out.
Because he sadly found that he could not do anything about Lu Chen!
Now Lu Chen is not the sa little anchor who was suppressed by him in the StarryLive Show.
“Since Manager Zhao is unwilling, forget it...”
Lu Chen stood up with a smile. He took out his wallet from his pocket, took a 50-yuan note and put it under his coffee cup. He said, “I hope there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future. Goodbye!”
Lu Chen nodded to the stunned assistant and left.
At this mont, Zhao Deping’s heart is like ten thousand horses galloping.
He stared at Lu Chen’s back. If his eyes could kill people, then Lu Chen would already been riddled with holes!
The assistant timidly asked, “Manager Zhao, then we are now...”
“Go back!”
Zhao Deping struggled to stand up and said helplessly, “We’ll go back to the Shenzhen City at once.”
Continuing to stay here would just disgrace himself. He really does not want his embarrassed appearance to be seen by Wu Hongming.
The assistant would like to say that the return ticket has not been booked yet, but Zhao Deping is like this. If he sprinkles salt into the other’s wound again, that’s just the rhythm of waiting to be fired.
The two had just left the coffee shop when a polite reminder ca from behind them.
“Sir, you forgot to pay the bill.”
The waiter’s voice was not loud, but it was particularly clear in the quiet coffee shop. Many of the guests nearby turned their heads and look at them. Most of them have curiosity or disdain in their eyes.
The color on Zhao Deping’s old face finally faded a little, and was heavily painted with a new layer in an instant.
He noticed Wu Hongming, who was not far from them and was talking to Lu Chen, and then he looked at himself.
The StarryLive dia Operations Manager almost spurted a mouthful of old blood.
If I had known it would be like this, even if it kills him, he would not have co to the Capital.
He was humiliated for nothing, and the most important task was not completed. There was no way to explain this to Zhang Guangjie when he went back. He can already imagine his gloomy and desperate future in the company!
......
“Zhao Deping...”
Wu Hongming glanced at his old opponent, snorted softly, and said, “He really has a face!”
He was the one who told Lu Chen about Zhao Deping being the Super Administrator 002 of [StarryLive Show]
Last night, after the executive eting at [Whale TV], he personally called Lu Chen to discuss the contract. As a result, he learned from Lu Chen’s words that Starlight dia would also send people to the Capital.
Based on his understanding of Zhao Deping, Wu Hongming revealed this non-secret to Lu Chen.
(TN: Original text was “revealed this secret but not really a secret”)
Because he knows very well that StarryLive dia will send their Operations Managent Manager to poach talent.
The result was as expected.
At the sa ti, Wu Hongming admired Lu Chen, who obviously played with Zhao Deping, while using the people from StarryLive dia to implicitly remind himself that the price of the new contract could not be worse.
In business, he did not think that there was anything wrong with Lu Chen’s approach, and he was prepared for it.
Lu Chen smiled and said, “Let’s sit down and talk!”
The people who ca to talk to him about the new contract were Wu Hongming and Wu Shanshan. He was eting the forr for the first ti, while he often talked to the latter in the QQ news. Of course, it was also his first ti eting the latter in person.
As for the third person who accompanied them, the tall and thin man with glasses, he was actually the editor of Yunjing Music Network!
The other party’s na is Sui An, and his ID na is Suiyu’er An.
Lu Chen of course knows Yunjing Music Network, which is the leading music website in China. The appearance of Editor Sui An made him have so subtle associations.
As for the truth, it needs to be understood slowly and carefully.
The four of them took a seat and sat down, ordered coffee and tea, and soon got to the point.
What Wu Hongming brought to Lu Chen was an electronic contract.
The advantage of an electronic contract is that it is very convenient to modify, and it is also very simple to print it into a formal contract after finalizing it.
[Whale TV]’s sincerity is clearly demonstrated in this electronic contract.
Their new contract for Lu Chen is 500,000 signing fee 500,000 annual salary 70% reward share and 30% value-added benefit share. The duration of the contract is three years. [Whale TV] has the right to terminate the contract in advance and give priority to the renewal of the contract.
Most importantly, [Whale TV] does not require possession of his original copyright, as long as it is reasonably authorized.
On Wu Shanshan’s laptop, Lu Chen looked carefully at the electronic contract. He did not find any clause trap or ambiguity in it, and the rights and obligations of both sides were very clear!
His heart is undoubtedly very satisfied, but the terms that should be put forward had to be put forward as well.
“Manager Wu...”
Lu Chen bluntly said to Wu Hongming, “I will say two points. The first point is that the signing fee of 500,000 is too small, and the second point is that the contract period of three years is too long. I hope it can be changed to two years. Others are fine!”
The signing fee of 500,000 is indeed amazing for a new anchor, but according to Lu Chen’s current popularity, that’s really not much. [Whale TV] no.1 female anchor, Qinger Baby, is said to have a signing fee that have reached 5,000,000!
Of course, out of the need of publicity, the 5,000,000 signing fee may have been an exaggerated, but even with a hard discount, two or three million is definitely quite a lot. By comparison, the 500,000 signing fee for Lu Chen is undoubtedly not enough.
Wu Hongming pondered for a mont and said, “Lu Chen, your two conditions are negotiable, but let think about it. How about you talk to the editor first?”
Lu Chen certainly has no objection. In fact, he is very curious about the intention of the editor of Yunjing Music Network.
Sui An’s intention is very simple. The editor hopes that Lu Chen can organize his original works into a complete music album, and then put it on the Yunjing Music Network for promotion and paid download!
“The founder of campus folk songs!”
Sui An’s eyes shone with excitent. He said, “I’ve listened to all the original works you sang on the PK the show several tis. Apart from “Fly Higher” and “Blue Lotus”, the style of the other songs is too suitable for recording folk albums. They have unique selling points. I believe the sales must be good!”
Lu Chen was really moved.
Making an album is the dream of countless singers. Even if it is an online album, being able to sell it on a big music website like Yunjing Music Network is also a good thing that many people dream of.
Lu Chen rembers a lot of songs in the dream world, but the works he has left for himself are all very uniform in style. Besides being used on the PK the show, isn’t he preparing for an album?
It’s just that it’s really not easy for unknown new singer to produce an album, even if one is able to make it, that person will still lose money before making any profit.
Perhaps there won’t even be a profit.
Lu Chen does not want to do sothing will injures oneself in putting on a vain show.1
But now that the opportunity is in front of him, why should he not take it?
