Chapter 375: It's really amazing
Yang Zheng felt that it was really necessary for him to explain this matter clearly, so that others would really think how black-hearted he was.
"In an industry like ours, don't we work every day? Is it so important to have a fixed day off? Of course, if there is a notice, we will work, and if there is no notice, we don't have to work!
And making a movie is a lot of people's business, it's not just that you have to work, don't other staff members work?
What's more, there are so many actors to participate, of course, it is also necessary to take into account everyone's schedule and time to cooperate with each other, isn't this requirement very reasonable?
Do you think the studio has jobs for you every day? How popular do you think you are? Do you still want to work every day?
In this circle, if you want to be able to work every day and be busy every day, then you have to have that ability! If you are a small actor on the 18th line, let alone 24 hours, I don't think you have to work 24 days a year!
Isn't it a bit redundant to worry about this issue now? Why, do you think that the entertainment industry is like an ordinary company employee, working five days a week, from 9 to 5 in the morning? Isn't it too naΓ―ve?
Isn't it necessary for your work to coincide with other people's schedules, of course?
What if you happen to receive two notices? What if you want to run in two places? Are you saying that you want to rest and stop receiving notices?
Mr. Zhang, is it true that the working hours of your company's employees are so regular? There is no need to work overtime or anything? Isn't it that if there is something, you have to work overtime, and you can rest if you have nothing to do?"
"That's right!" Zhang Le said unhurriedly: "But we don't have such a treaty, but we don't say that employees are required to be on call 24 hours a day and obey all the company's work arrangements, how can we write such an unreasonable requirement into the contract?"
Even if they are employees of the company, they have their own affairs, they do not belong to the company, and when the company needs them to work overtime, if they are unwilling, can you still force them?
As for receiving notices or jobs and the like, it will not be even worse, the company will only give artists advice, but it will also ask for the opinions of artists, but it will not forcibly arrange any work for them. β
"That's for their good, especially those who have just signed a contract like this!" Yang Zheng said angrily: "They don't know much about this circle, do they know what resources are good and what resources are bad? How can they let them choose for themselves?"
"Isn't it okay for the company to give advice? There's no need to ask artists to obey all the company's arrangements, right?" Zhang Le said.
"It's not just work. Zhang Qian immediately said: "There are any other dinners, wine parties, etc., we also want to participate, and we can't refuse! These are all written in the contract!"
It's not our obligation, is it? Even if we sign a contract, we don't have any obligation to accompany us to a drink or dinner or anything like that? It's not our job. β
"That's right, how can there be such a request. Several other girls protested.
"Hmph, isn't it normal to participate in wine and dinners? Isn't it to let you participate in more dinners in order to find better resources for you? Is this a benefit for the company, and there is no benefit for you yourself at all?"
Yang Zheng had a gloomy face and said coldly: "Don't say as if I forced you to do everything, don't you want to become popular? In this circle, good resources are limited, so many artists, why give you this opportunity?"
You don't want any effort, you just want to get a good development opportunity? How can there be such a good thing? You don't want to do it, but a lot of people are willing to do it! You don't think this contract is reasonable, you can not sign it!
There is no shortage of artists in our studio, there are a few of you, if you want better treatment, you can go to Mr. Zhang's company, see if he wants you?
Let's see if he can give you better treatment and better signing conditions?"
Several girls were anxious when they heard what Yang Zheng said, and hurriedly said to Zhang Le: "That's not the case, Mr. Zhang, we don't want to sign with him at all!"
As we said before, the terms in the contract were too unreasonable, and we had discussed it together, and we had to talk to the studio to see if we could change the terms.
But the people in the studio said very harshly that the terms can't be changed, and we have to sign it, even if we don't want to sign it, we have to sign it! Because we came to the interview, and passing the interview, it is equivalent to acquiescing to signing a contract with their studio, and if we don't sign, it is a breach of contract. β
"Yes!" Zhang Qian also immediately said: "They also told me the same before, I said that I didn't want to sign a contract, so they threatened me, saying that I came for an interview, and passing the interview is equivalent to signing a contract!"
If you don't sign a contract, you'll have to pay liquidated damages! And the amount is quite ...... We, we can't afford it!"
Zhang Le was stunned: "There is still this kind of operation?"
"That's right!" Zhang Qian and the girls nodded desperately: "That's what the studio said, if we don't sign a contract, we will have to pay liquidated damages, and the liquidated damages are all seven figures, we can't afford to pay at all."
When I interviewed before, I had never heard of such a thing, and if you don't sign a contract, you will have to pay compensation. β
Zhang Le was stunned, such a shameless reason, it was the first time he had heard it, this is not a person from your company, and he has to be compensated?
"Such a powerful reason? If you don't sign a contract, you still have to pay liquidated damages? Have you ever heard of this kind of treaty?" Zhang Le asked loudly: "What kind of breach of contract is this? Before you sign a contract, you have to ask people to pay liquidated damages? Such a strange reason, this is really the first time I have heard of it, have you ever heard of it?"
"Nope!"
"Definitely not!"
"What a breach of contract!"
"It's shameless!"
"It's too much!"
"yes, is it going to be an interview to sign a contract?
"No company has such unreasonable demands, right?"
"Yes, what does it mean to sign or not? What does it mean to let others compensate millions of liquidated damages if you don't sign?"
"That's right, I didn't sign a contract, why did I breach the contract. β
Zhang Le applauded: "It's the first time I've heard of such powerful signing conditions! Why, Director Yang, did you tell them that if they didn't sign the contract, they would be compensated for liquidated damages?"
Yang Zheng's face was very unpleasant: "I don't know what you are talking about, Mr. Zhang! This kind of compensation demand, I think it's impossible, right?"
"Hmph, you're still pretending!" Zhang Qian sneered: "Isn't that what your studio said?"
