After the top flow fans fell off the horse

"Mr. Wang, you signed the contract with us in black and white. The commercials have already been filmed. Now you suddenly want to terminate the cooperation. Should you give me a reason?"

In the office, Cheng Yan was surprisingly angry, and he didn't show any face to the other party: "Or do you think we are bullying with our Shixi temper?"

This is the second time Cheng Yan has encountered the brand Fang Zuoyao in the past half a month. They both cooperated well at first, but the other party suddenly proposed to terminate the cooperation. They would rather pay high liquidated damages than terminate the contract.

If Cheng Yan said it once, he might think it was a coincidence, but it happened twice. As a manager who has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, if he can't detect the problem, it's a waste of time.

Mr. Wang on the phone was also very tired.

In the circle, Xu Shixi's endorsement is notoriously difficult to talk about. As a top-notch brand, he has at least two global endorsements for blue blood brands. Be more cautious when picking an olive branch.

In order to talk about Xu Shixi, he spent a lot of effort. The commercial also invited world-renowned photographers to shoot. The official announcement time had already been booked, and even the publicity team was ready. As a result, the above one The order said that it would be changed, and even if they, as the breaching party, might have to pay Xu Shixi hundreds of millions of liquidated damages, the higher-ups would not let go.

With a hint of apology, Mr. Wang reported the names of the two brands and reminded Cheng Yan, "I heard that besides us, these two companies have also been pressured to terminate their cooperation with you. Shixi has offended something recently. people?"

Cheng Yan frowned. Xu Shixi's endorsement has always been seeking for refinement rather than excess. Not to mention that all of these brands are top blue blood brands, but they are also well-known brands with market share. When the contract was terminated, the possibility of someone deliberately suppressing it was taken into consideration. It is possible to move so many brands at once, and the strength of the other party should not be underestimated.

"Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Wang." Even so, Cheng Yan didn't want to fulfill the other party's wish, "But after all, you breached the contract first, and we will not agree to terminate the contract so easily. We will see you in court."

In the entertainment industry, artists seem to be under the control of capital, whether you agree or not, everything is up to the capital.

Cheng Yan was very upset, and without waiting for the other party's response after speaking, he put down the phone directly.

The little assistant next to him, who had been as quiet as a chicken, pushed the water glass in front of him, and carefully comforted him: "Brother Yan, drink some water to calm down."

Cheng Yan picked up the water glass, touched it to his lips, and put it down heavily. He really couldn't figure it out, so he turned his gaze to the person who had been silent on the sofa: "Shixi, what do you think?"

Xu Shixi raised his eyes. Contrary to the furious Cheng Yan, his posture was so casual that he seemed to be listening to other people's affairs.

After listening to Cheng Yan's phone call, there was still no wave on his face.

Of course he knew who wrote these things, and it was expected that he would withdraw a few endorsements.

It's just that Ye Jingquan's actions were slower than he expected. It took almost two months to suppress him before he really took action.

But after thinking about it, Xu Shixi figured it out. After all, in Ye Jingquan's view, he is still a son who cannot escape his control. Withdrawing him from a few endorsements is to remind him that if he is not obedient, Xu Shixi will work hard in the entertainment circle. To Ye Jingquan, everything he has worked so hard for is nothing but something that can be destroyed by moving his fingers.

"How much is the liquidated damages?" Xu Shixi asked Cheng Yan.

The endorsement fees up to Xu Shixi’s level start at tens of millions. If the other party wants to terminate the contract without any fault, they need to pay three to five times the liquidated damages. The last brand that terminated the contract paid hundreds of millions of dollars. , the endorsement fee that this company paid to sign Xu Shixi was not low, and the liquidated damages would only be more or less.

Cheng Yan roughly calculated and gave a number.

Xu Shixi understood: "Then solve it."

Although he was giving money to himself, Cheng Yan was still angry: "No, we can't terminate the contract so easily, everyone will think we are easy to bully!"

"How to terminate the contract is up to you." Xu Shixi said again, "In addition to liquidated damages, they must compensate me for the losses. The specific amount is up to you, and you must get the money as soon as possible."

Cheng Yan sneered: "Then I'll make the lion open its mouth wide."

Xu Shixi had no objection, and the little assistant was listening, still feeling a little aggrieved. The one who signed the contract was also the brand side, and the one who wanted to terminate the contract was also the brand side. Even if the other party had to pay high compensation, he was still very frustrated.

"Xiao Wang." Cheng Yan said, "If you don't want to be an assistant for the rest of your life, you should think about how you should fight back at this time. Although the termination of the contract is a certainty, as a party without fault, just in case, we It is still necessary to take the lead in grasping the right to speak of public opinion.”

Cheng Yan called the PR department and asked the PR manager to come to his office.

When Cheng Yan was talking with the work manager, the little assistant was seriously taking notes with a small notebook, but the person involved, Xu Shixi, was lazily leaning on the sofa, with one hand resting on the back of the sofa, while looking down at the phone.

Until the other party sent him a location, he put on his peaked cap and stood up from the sofa.

Before he left, he happened to hear Cheng Yan and the public relations manager discussing the recent online announcement about the scandal between him and Song Rang.

It has been a while since the charity night. Although the scandal between him and Song Rang has subsided among netizens due to the cold treatment of both parties, there have been countless drafts to hype. No matter how much Xu Shixi suppresses it, the other party It's like fighting against him, the more vigorous it is.

On the Internet, there are also those who say that Song Rang is making hype, and there are also those who say that Xu Shixi is making hype. There are various voices, but the most are Xu Shixi's fans. Originally, the goodwill of Song Rang who took their brother to the red carpet was wiped out by these drafts. He thought it was Song Rang who was sticking to Xu Shixi to suck blood.

At first Cheng Yan also thought that these drafts were sent by Song Rang. After all, he still remembered Song Rang's activeness and Xu Shixi's cold eyes when he was in the modeling room. A third party is also controlling online public opinion about the two.

Xu Shixi was not surprised by this matter.

This draft, he knew who sent it at a glance.

Just like Song Rang, netizens said that the two of them have a good relationship and called me unworthy. The clearer the relationship with him, the better. How could they actively hype.

Instead, it was Ye Jingquan who tried every means to get him and Song Rang related.

But immediately, Ye Jingquan had no time to take care of him.

"Keep pressing." Before going out, Xu Shixi said to the people in the office.

According to the orientation he received, he went to a very private tea room.

The waiters in this teahouse are well-trained, even if Xu Shixi, who was wearing a hat, walked beside her, she could still keep her eyes on her, and led Xu Shixi into a room with a wooden sign with the word "Ya" on it. private room.

The private room was decorated classically and elegantly. Xu Shixi sat down familiarly. He leaned against a screen, held the teacup with his slender fingers, and drank the tea leisurely.

Not long after, there was movement behind the screen, and the waiter led a lady in.

Not long after the other party arrived, a lawyer who claimed to be surnamed Zhao rushed over and apologized: "I'm sorry, there was a traffic jam on the way, and I kept you waiting."

The lady didn't mind the other party's being late, and was even a little anxious: "Lawyer Gu, can you really help me?"

"Of course." Attorney Gu handed over his business card and introduced himself briefly, "Before you, I helped thirteen women win their sexual assault cases. You can trust me."

"But the other party is powerful, can I really succeed?" The lady's voice was hesitant, "And this happened half a year ago."

"Ms. Zhao, since you choose to ask for help on Weibo, then I believe that you are not willing to let the beast go unpunished. In our country, women have always had a lower right to speak than men. It is also very difficult to defend rights in the case. I say this not to hurt you, but to tell you that if one more person stands up to expose the ugly side of these men, it will be more vigilant to other women."

Lawyer Gu spoke calmly and firmly: "There are not a few people in this world who have the same experience as you, but not everyone has the courage to stand up and expose their scars, whether it is fear of power or a difficult road ahead, if one There are no people who are willing to defend their rights, and those who hurt you will hurt more and more people. The road to rights protection must be difficult, and it will not be 100% successful, but the moment you stand up, you will no longer If you are alone, there will be thousands of voices supporting you behind you, and the person you hate will also be condemned by everyone. Even if we can't bring him down, at least we must make him feel uncomfortable, right?"

The screen completely covered Xu Shixi, and the conversation between the two fell into his ears verbatim. He drank tea silently without making any sound.

Ms. Zhao may have been touched by Lawyer Gu's words. She sobbed softly, and at the request of Lawyer Gu, she explained in detail how she was persecuted by the senior management of a certain group.

This conversation lasted all afternoon, and before leaving, Ms. Zhao asked the question she had held back all afternoon: "Lawyer Gu, you are also a man, why did you help me?"

Lawyer Gu said: "Because my mother had the same experience as you."

Ms. Zhao didn't think of this answer, and hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I don't know..."

"It's okay." Lawyer Gu said, "So I will do my best to help you, don't worry."

"Thank you, Attorney Gu."

After Ms. Zhao left, Lawyer Gu walked behind the screen and sat opposite Xu Shixi.

Xu Shixi pushed the teacup in front of him, and said in a deep voice, "Lawyer Gu, don't come here without any problems."

"I'm surprised that you contacted me about this matter." Lawyer Gu took a sip of tea, and looked directly at him with the same deep eyebrows, "Xu Shixi."

This lawyer surnamed Gu is a classmate of Xu Shixi High School. He is in the same school and in different classes, but they often meet each other in competitions.

Xu Shixi saw the message sent by Ms. Zhao when searching for Ye Jingquan's group on Weibo. In just one minute, Ms. Zhao's Weibo was deleted. Fortunately, Xu Shixi has a good memory and wrote it down. The other party's ID.

What does it mean to be sleepy and send a pillow? Although the person accused by Ms. Zhao is not Ye Jingquan himself, but the other party is also a group executive who is absolutely controlled by Ye Jingquan. Xu Shixi is willing to help Ye Jingquan with anything that makes Ye Jingquan difficult.

He immediately contacted the lawyer, wanting the other party to help Ms. Zhao defend her rights. After hearing his intention, the other party recommended a lawyer to him, saying that this lawyer is now very famous in the legal circle and has helped many women win lawsuits within two years Having experienced similar cases, she is more experienced in helping Ms. Zhao defend her rights.

As soon as the two got in touch, Xu Shixi discovered that it was actually his high school classmate.

"I was surprised too." Xu Shixi said.

The two only knew each other in high school, and there was nothing old to talk about, so the topic finally turned back to the case itself.

Ms. Zhao had just entered the society when she was violated. Not only did she not call the police, but she also did not tell anyone because of the shame she had been instilled since she was a child. Of course, she did not mention any evidence that would be beneficial to her prosecution, such as saving the semen of the assailant and going to the hospital for examination.

And because of the identity and social status of the other party, the road to rights protection is even more difficult, but it is not 100% impossible to succeed.

Lawyer Gu has already said this to Ms. Zhao: "Be prepared for a protracted war."

Xu Shixi said: "Help her win this lawsuit. If you need anything, you can tell me. I will pay for all the expenses of rights protection."

Lawyer Gu: "That's natural."

He already had some considerations on his side, and then asked Xu Shixi, "If I need your support, would you mind?"

With the support of celebrities, of course, it can attract the attention of netizens and the society to this matter, but Lawyer Gu also knows that celebrities have their concerns, and it is not uncommon to speak out about a certain social event, but there are relatively few of them.

The attention they receive makes it difficult for them to express their opinions on something easily, especially in today's world of frequent reversals of various news, if they are not cautious in their words and deeds, they can easily get burned.

Especially in the case of Ms. Zhao, it is easy to be blamed by the other party, saying that Ms. Zhao took the initiative to seduce deliberately, and the other party just made a mistake that all men make.

The sexual assault scandal exposed by the senior management of Ye Jingquan Group will not only affect the offender himself, but also the stock price of the entire group will be affected, and even the projects they are currently involved in may be deprecated. The greater the impact, and Ms. Zhao will get more social support.

For Xu Shixi, it was a good thing to kill two birds with one stone, so why not mind.

He put down the teacup, raised the corners of his lips: "Not at all."

The author has something to say: _(:з」∠)_ Sorry, the update has been suspended for three days.

I am preparing for the provincial exam recently, and my writing speed is slow. I want to save 3000 words for each chapter before posting. This chapter has been delayed for several days.

In fact, I am directly asking for a month's leave to continue updating after I finish the exam, and I am torn between updating every two or three days like now. On the one hand, I am afraid that everyone may not remember me after a month. I think it may not be very interesting for you to watch it every two or three days.

I am very grateful to the little cuties who often leave messages, and I am sorry for the frequent interruption of updates recently. After thinking about it, I still want to ask everyone’s opinions. Are you more accepting of asking for a month off, or is it currently updated every two or three days?
