Chapter 24 Accelerating Progress
Excellence had never suffered such a great humiliation, and immediately picked up the company's internal phone and called the network department, demanding that Xiao Miao's eight pieces of music be taken off the shelves immediately.
Lin Yicheng was so anxious when he heard this, he hurriedly stopped: "Mr. Zhuo, don't be angry first." There is no need to be furious for a hairy boy, and now all of Shui Xiaomiao's songs are suddenly taken off the shelves, Shui Xiaomiao will definitely say that we are in breach of contract and ask for compensation. The gains outweigh the losses. ”
"If you lose, you will pay! If you don't lose 500,000 yuan, Lao Tzu will smoke this cigar for 10,000 cigarettes, and fight with Lao Tzu! Lao Tzu will make you unable to enter the music circle for the rest of your life. Make some money from me and go to heaven. Look at who has just passed whom, E listens to Shui Xiaomiao or E listens, Shui Xiaomiao is nothing without E. Now it's useless for him to turn around and beg me, I've made up my mind, what nonsense are you talking about?" Zhuo Zhuo was already furious at this time, and immediately called the legal department vigorously, announcing his decision to end the cooperation with Shui Xiaomiao, and asked them to pay liquidated damages as soon as possible.
Lin Yicheng shook his head helplessly, recalling that he had come to the current era of change, and he had a feeling that things were wrong and wrong, and I really didn't know if I should continue to insist?
If it weren't for Lao Zhuo's accident, Excellence has changed careers independently in the past few years, and this E will not become as dark and miasma as it is now. In the past, Mr. Zhuo personally invited Lin Yicheng to get together with him three times and twice in order to hire him, and he Lin Yicheng can be regarded as a talent invited by Mr. Zhuo to listen to E. Mr. Zhuo has no doubt about the music of China, and in just ten years, he has established E Listening Global as the largest music portal in China, but he never expected to die unexpectedly at the age of 50.
The heroic excellence was temporarily ordained, and immediately took over E Listening after returning from England from studying, and the drastic reforms in the past few years have brought E Ting's performance to a higher level. But excellence is a reading economy in the end, everything is profit-oriented, and in recent years, it has begun to be a little proud and conceited. The company has indeed successfully transformed from a pure music portal to a comprehensive group company in many aspects of the entertainment industry, and has almost monopolized the whole of China in the music industry, but the operation policy and corporate philosophy have gradually deviated from the original intention of Mr. Zhuo. I really can't afford to live up to my original intention.
"It seems that it is time for me to retire and I can't keep up with the pace of society. Lin Yicheng said to himself from the bottom of his heart.
At this time, Zhuo Zhuo finished the phone call and began to make fun of Lin Yicheng again: "Director Lin, your salary has been rising year by year in the past few years, and you have already received more than 1 million in bonuses and wages in the first half of this year, why can you do such a small thing? It seems that I have to reconsider your position." There are talented people in the country, don't think that you were invited by the old man, so you can get a stable iron job. ”
Lin Yicheng did not respond positively to excellence, because the excellence in front of him was not the kind of person who struggled for music like Mr. Zhuo back then, nor was it the excellence who just graduated back that year. He has become a dictator, blinded by his fame, fortune and power.
"Mr. Zhuo, I'm sorry, this matter is my fault and my responsibility, and I will take the blame and resign. Lin Yicheng held back what he didn't want to say the most, but when he said it, he felt a sense of relief in his heart.
"There's no need to resign, from now on you should go back to your music studio and be your director again, it seems that I thought you were too capable back then. If you look at the people you have been looking for in the past few years, one by one they either disobey the company's arrangement or work against the company. "Excellence is not a stupid person, he just wants to give Lin Yicheng a dismissal, really dismiss him Excellence or reluctant, at least E Ting can become the current scale has a lot of credit to Lin Yicheng in the early stage, and Lin Yicheng is also a meritorious person brought up by his father to fight the first generation, which can be described as the "founding father" of the E Listening Kingdom. If he is really fired, he will definitely offend more than half of the company's veterans, of course, it is impossible to offend half of the company and lose a general because of just one Shui Xiaomiao.
"Mr. Zhuo, from this incident, it seems that I am indeed old and incapable. I ask you to accede to my request. In the days to come, I want to return to music and be a critic. Hope for approval. Lin Yicheng sincerely looked at Excellence, in the past few years, he feels that he has become more and more meritorious, unlike when he was the same as Lao Zhuo, who only wanted to contribute to the development of the music industry, and now he is based on interests. After Xiao Miao's incident, he became more and more aware that he had also lost his original intention, he would definitely not give Xiao Miao a copyright fee of 50,000 yuan to send a talented person, and he would definitely not squeeze all the value of a singer who loves music and then abandon it...... Thinking of this, he was even more embarrassed and disappointed.
Seeing Lin Yicheng's righteous and awe-inspiring expression, he couldn't wait for this group of old employees to resign one by one, so that they could find a professional agent to take their position, so as to reform their company more thoroughly.
"Director Lin, I should also call you Uncle Lin in terms of seniority. Back then, you and my dad fought the country, and almost all the singers across the country came to the door one by one to persuade them in person, so that their right music could be launched on our website. Since you have made up your mind, it is better to be like this, you can be an honorary music director under the name of our E-listen, write music reviews to the website, and your salary will remain the same, and you can also live in peace. Excellence said solemnly.
Lin Yicheng nodded and agreed, he knew the truth that rabbits and dead dogs cook birds and hide them. He walked up to the portrait of Mr. Zhuo in the office, bowed deeply, and walked out of the excellent office without saying anything.
As soon as the picture turned, Xiao Miao laughed out loud just after hanging up the excellent phone, and said to Xu Zheng with a hippie smile: "Lao Zheng, it seems that I don't have to give 500,000 liquidated damages, save a penny, and it is very likely that E listened to the world and poured me 500,000 as liquidated damages, but 1 million before and after, haha." ”
Xu Zheng said with a smile: "I just found out today that you are a profiteer, I pity the surnamed Lin now, it is estimated that if you launch a review network, E heard that the world's top management will definitely be the first to take him." ”
Xiao Miao choked back: " At first, I thought he was a person who saw money and opened his eyes, but the conditions he gave me today have made me change my opinion of him, and at that time, I didn't start recording Lin Yicheng gave me a new contract, not that he thought I would be in the future, but he really thought about it for me, and the 50,000 yuan at the beginning should not be his original intention, and when I recorded the song, according to my observation, his work attitude was extremely serious, I once understood his situation, at least more than half of the singers in Huaxia have received his favor, and Sister Xuefei was also brought out by him back then, if it really affects him, turn around and hire him to come to our side, this kind of talent can not be found outside, especially his network, once it can be used by us, it will definitely be able to get twice the result with half the effort. ”
Xu Zheng raised his hand and put it on Xiao Miao's shoulder and said: "You still say that you are not a profiteer, and you are going to dig into the corner of the wall if you don't succeed, then I wish you all the best here." ”
Didi ...... Xiao Miao's phone rang again, the caller ID was Lin Yicheng, Xiao Miao signaled Xu Zheng to make a sound and connected the phone.
"Hey, Uncle Lin, is there anything else to tell Mr. Zhuo over there? Xiao Miao asked in a slightly mocking tone.
"Xiao Miao, I'm sorry, Uncle Lin didn't keep your songs, E listened to the world has decided to remove all your songs, Mr. Zhuo has just arranged for the legal department to break the contract for you, and he will transfer you 500,000 liquidated damages when he turns around, Xiao Miao, don't do everything so absolutely. You see what a good seedling you are, hey, Uncle Lin, I won't talk about it, I just resigned. ”
Xiao Miao didn't expect Lin Yicheng to resign thinking about this matter, and there was inevitably a hint of debt in his heart.
"Uncle Lin, I'm sorry, I really don't want to take on any commercials or endorsements, I just want to make music well, it doesn't matter, there is no one and the next one, the aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys. ”
Lin Yicheng sighed behind the phone and said: "Xiao Miao, if you have a chance in the future, you remember not to be so stubborn, now this society is really afraid of deep alleys, especially in this alley, there are gatekeepers living in the alleys." Ay. Not to mention, plan the money you earn well, with your talent, even if you can't achieve a career in the Chinese pop music circle, you can make a difference in classical music, I have heard your piano solo music, it is really good, I recommend you to study in Europe. Take care of your musical talents, I don't want your talents to be buried. ”
Xiao Miao was moved, he didn't expect that Lin Yicheng not only didn't blame him, but helped him figure out a way out. It seems that he is going to take a fresh look at Lin Yicheng.
"Thank you, Uncle Lin, by the way, if you have any difficulties, you can also come to me. I really see you as an uncle in my heart. After Lin Yicheng said what he said just now, Xiao Miao's heart did change to him, and after a quick reflection and review, what Xiao Miao said about treating Lin Yicheng as an uncle was actually from the bottom of his heart.
"Okay, Xiao Miao, I wish you a bright future. I won't say more. Lin Yicheng hung up the phone and sat in his office in a daze.
The picture returned to Xiao Miao's side, and Xiao Miao, who hung up the phone, also had mixed feelings in her heart. He finally realized the meaning of shopping malls like battlefields, and the cruel reality of society was glimpsed. But soon he broke away from his contemplation and said to Xu Zheng: "Lao Zheng, the plan has changed, we have to speed up the progress, this is a golden opportunity, maybe this summer we can share the world equally with E Listening Global, if it goes well, we can even beat E Listening Global." And the key point is Lin Yicheng and the Internet water army!"
At this time, Xiao Miao had already planned a perfect blueprint in her heart.
