"What should we do now?"

"wait!"

"wait?"

Bai Jie and Mi Yue were sitting side by side on the sofa in the hotel. The big one was charming, the small one was sweet, like two flowers blooming, each good at winning. They listened quietly and with admiration to Lin Baiyao analyzing the pros and cons.

After the cocktail party in the evening, Bai Jie was completely shocked by Lin Baiyao's background and had no other thoughts in her mind.

I just want to pass this hurdle, follow Lin Baiyao from now on, and let him drive me.

As for Mi Yue, after telling the conditions for signing the contract for thirty years, she completely regarded herself as a person who reflected the galaxy. She was both prosperous and devastated. Facing the boss Lin Baiyao, she felt nothing but respect and admiration.

.

No matter what happens in the future, at least at this moment, she has no objection.

Lin Baiyao didn't care at all. He remembered Ye Sushang's evaluation of Mi Yue, but where in the world can he find employees who are all loyal to the boss?

In fact, most people are similar to Mi Yue. They gather together when they are proud and disperse when they are frustrated. They are good people if they don't add insult to injury.

How could Cao Cao conquer the world if he had to recruit his subordinates based on their character?

At least Mi Yue has advantages that others don't have. She can assess the situation. As long as Lin Baiyao remains strong, she will always be obedient.

This is much better than some idiots who can't see the situation clearly or their own strength.

"Yes, wait for Guoyu to make the move first. Qian Qiang bumped into us chatting with Deputy Mayor Rao. Although the conversation was just a casual conversation and he might have forgotten about you when he turned around, I concluded that Qian Qiang is a smart man and he will not take risks.

.Because it’s not worth it…”

Why isn't it worth it?

Du Xueying has just become a little famous in the past two years, and her image and acting skills have made her popular among the audience. However, it is still unclear whether she can become famous and how much profit she can bring to the company.

No smart person would do such a stupid thing at the risk of offending a deputy for the sake of ambiguous expected returns.

"However, I guess there won't be any reply tonight. You guys have been tired for a long day, so go back and rest."

After sending the two girls away, Lin Baiyao called the Yuezhou authorities and asked Pei Buyu to take the earliest flight tomorrow to the magical capital.

At nine o'clock the next morning, Pei Buyu had just arrived. Before he could take a breath, Bai Jie received a call from Guoyu Media. The two parties agreed to meet at the Yizi Culture office building to discuss the termination of Du Xueying's contract.

At ten o'clock, everyone gathered, Qian Qiang personally stepped in to give Bai Jie enough face, and Chen Huai'an also followed.

Sitting across from each other in the conference room, Lin Baiyao and Mi Yue sat in the back row to listen. Guoyu Media's legal affairs still followed the same routine as Qian Qiang threatened Bai Jie yesterday, but the words were much more polite, and it was purely business-like.

Attitude.

Pei Buyu simply looked through the information of both parties on the way here. Now he was sitting next to Bai Jie, as calm as an old dog who had seen through the world.

Leaving professional matters to professional people is one of Lin Baiyao's unwavering business principles.

"...You said that Du Xueying has caused little loss to us, and that a million liquidated damages is unfair. You just see that she has not created greater value for the company, but you ignore the expenditure that Yizi has invested in Du Xueying's continuous training over the years.

, physical training, music learning, dance classes and performance classes, various promotions and publicity, these companies have accounts, and the cost far exceeds one million. Her unilateral termination of the contract caused heavy losses, and our claim will definitely be supported by the court. "

"This is not a debate in court, I am speaking more casually." Guoyu lawyer said with a smile: "Du Xueying has not only trained and not taken jobs for so many years, she has also continued to create profits for Yizi... However, the evidence in this regard

It’s too flexible. It doesn’t matter what you or I say. It depends on the court to determine it. Let’s put it aside for now.”

He paused, took out a copy of the contract between Du Xueying and Yizi, and said: "What I want to say is that according to the general legal provisions of Articles 93 and 94 of the Contract Law, Du Xueying has the right to unilaterally terminate the contract. And she has the right to unilaterally terminate the contract.

There was a major misunderstanding about the content of the contract. Yizi promised to tilt the company's resources to her and build her into a first-line actress, so she did not raise any objection to the obviously unreasonable and huge liquidated damages of one million. But what was the result? We all watched.

Here we are, Du Xueying is not even a third-tier employee, and the court cannot support your company’s breach of contract claim.”

This is the core dispute in all celebrity contract termination cases. Why did Qian Qiang dare to tell Bai Jie so confidently last night that there was no case he could not win?

Because before 2013, entertainment agency contracts were often regarded as simple entrustment contracts, so unilateral termination by artists was relatively smooth, which also resulted in a relatively unfavorable situation for agency companies.

Pei Buyu was prepared and said calmly: "The acting agency contract contains various legal relationships such as entrustment, agency, intermediary, service, etc., and it obviously has comprehensive attributes. For many years, the acting agency contract has been regarded as an entrustment contract, which is a typical understanding.

You know your mistake. No one can terminate the contract unilaterally. In this way, the interests of the brokerage company cannot be protected, which seriously violates the fairness of the contract. If your company is unwilling to reconcile, our company will do whatever it takes to urge the Supreme Court to issue a new judicial interpretation.

, correct misconceptions."

If he hadn't met with Deputy Mayor Rao, Qian Qiang would have regarded these words as a joke. Now that the scene last night is lingering in his mind and heard again, the effect is completely different.

He looked at the lawyer. The lawyer came closer and whispered: "It is indeed possible, but few lawyers approach it from this angle. Mr. Qian, the other party's lawyer is very qualified. I don't know where he hired it. It is difficult to deal with."

Qian Qiang was willing to sit down and talk on his own initiative, certainly not to deal with Bai Jie.

This is a show of goodwill, or a release of goodwill.

But given their position, reconciliation cannot be too straightforward.

Should we just come over and tell Bai Jie, I'm afraid of you, we don't want Du Xueying anymore, and give it back to Yizi?

When word spreads out, is Guoyu Media still a good person? How shameless when meeting colleagues?

So you have to sit down with a lawyer and go through the formal mediation process. How many points you can win is up to you. If I give in a few points more to give Deputy Mayor Rao face, this matter can be solved perfectly.

However, she didn't expect that the lawyer Bai Jie was looking for was extremely ugly, but his professional ability was so outstanding, and he was always familiar with the Supreme Court. He must have a great background, and he was probably introduced by the man on the sofa.

The man on the sofa refers specifically to Lin Baiyao.

To put it bluntly, when it comes to judicial matters, when both parties have similar evidence and lack specific judicial explanations, it all depends on the distance between them.

Without waiting for Qian Qiang's reaction, Pei Buyu handed over the manuscript of a news report.

This is a news report that Editor Li stayed up late to write, detailing how Du Xueying avenged her kindness.

"This is the Suhuai Evening News, one of the top ten media in the country, followed by the capital media and the southern media. Even if your company can silence the local media, it will not prevent Du Xueying's reputation from being tarnished."

This is drawing money from the bottom of the cauldron. Even if Guoyu wins the lawsuit in the end, Du Xueying, whose reputation has been ruined, will have no use value.

Of course, it would not have come to this point until Tu Qiong Ding saw the situation and fought to the death.

At this point, Qian Qiang was sure that Bai Jie had met a noble person and that there was no point in continuing to struggle. After a brief discussion with the company, he decided to reach a settlement with Yi Zi with a liquidated damages of 200,000 yuan.

"Mr. Bai, this price is the first-line termination price. Refer to the termination lawsuits of Lin Yiyi, Mao Ning, and Yang Yuying in the past two years. They all compensated the original agency company more than 200,000 yuan to get free agency. Du Xueying's status is far inferior, and it happens that

We have a play suitable for her, so we agreed to spend 200,000 to make a friend..."

This is true. If we really go to court, we may not be able to compensate 200,000 yuan, and the lawsuit will be long-lasting and consume energy and financial resources. Guoyu's conditions can be regarded as a sign of sincerity.

Pei Buyu looked at Bai Jie. Bai Jie was still thinking. Chen Huaian jumped out to express his dissatisfaction and said: "If you reconcile, my compensation will be 850,000 yuan, not a penny less."

Qian Qiang and Chen Huaian are senior bad friends. They work together and do a lot of things to bully men and dominate women.

But after all, Chen Huai'an was reckless and did not know how to advance or retreat like Qian Qiang. He completely ignored Qian Qiang's plan to calm things down and was still obsessed with his three melons and two dates.

Qian Qiang was robbed of his words and felt that he had lost face in front of outsiders. He looked unhappy and said nothing.

Pei Buyu said: "According to the relevant provisions of the contract law, liquidated damages cannot be higher than 30% of the actual loss. If it exceeds 30%, it will not be protected by law. What about your actual loss? Do you have an account? Are there any witnesses or physical evidence? According to me

According to the information we have, the so-called crew filming only exists in folders, and the loss is about... um, one hundred yuan? You will definitely lose if you go to court. I will give you 30 yuan for tea, no thanks."

Pei Buyu took out his wallet directly, counted thirty yuan and put it on the table.

Good guy, there are five dollars left in the thirty dollars.

Chen Huaian exploded.

"you you!"

He gritted his teeth and pointed at Pei Buyu. He originally wanted to say that I will fuck you to death. This was also what he said to women most often.

But looking at Pei Buyu's majestic appearance, he really couldn't speak, and was speechless for a moment.

"Okay, Lao Chen, stop making trouble!"

Qian Qiang scolded Chen Huaian for sitting down, and finally Pei Buyu proposed a plan to let Du Xueying leave. The betrayer was not worthy of staying in Yizi, and Guoyu would pay a liquidated damages of 200,000.

Moreover, Chen Huaian voluntarily gave up the original contract, or transferred the original contract to Guoyu for performance, and no longer has any relationship with Yizi.

Qian Qiang, on behalf of Chen Huaian, agreed. Pei Buyu cooperated with Guoyu lawyers and quickly drafted the terms. Both parties signed and sealed the incident, successfully resolving the incident.

When leaving, Qian Qiang came to Lin Baiyao, stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Mr. Lin, I hope we can sit down and have a meal in the future. I know there is a small restaurant where the braised catfish is very authentic. You must try it."

taste."

The average skin in the entertainment industry is three-thirds thicker. Lin Baiyao knew this and smiled: "There is a chance."

On the other side, lawyer Guoyu was also chatting with Pei Buyu, asking: "Which law firm does Lawyer Pei have a high position in?"

"I'm not in a law firm. Like you, I work as a full-time legal practitioner in a company."

Lawyer Guo Yu felt friendly and asked about the school he graduated from. When he heard that it was Xichuan Political Science and Law, he repeatedly praised: "Xichuan Political Science and Law produces talented people, no wonder..."

When their vehicle drove out of Yizi's office area, her tense heart could finally breathe a sigh of relief. Bai Jie didn't expect that the nightmare that had plagued her for months would disappear so easily. Just as she was about to say something to Lin Baiyao, Lin Baiyao shook his head.

Waving his hand, he joked: "We'll talk about the rest later. Let's arrange meals first. I'm starving to death..."

Bai Jie quickly turned to look at the quartz watch hanging on the wall. The hour hand pointed to one o'clock in the afternoon.

Three hours of negotiation seemed like a blink of an eye!

"Look at my brain, Mr. Lin, let's go to the Old Town God's Temple and try the shark's fin and dim sum at Green Wave Restaurant..."

"Water from a distance can't quench our thirst nearby. Let's just ask the chef to cook some of his specialty dishes in the cafeteria on the first floor."

"Then, that's not neglect..."
