Chapter 103: Judgment has not been discussed
Chapter 103 does not talk about the verdict
"Sister S agrees to let go of my music agency contract, but the film and television contract must be arranged by the company?" Liu Ying looked back at Gu Lian from the mirror, the white mask covered her expression, and she couldn't even speak too much. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
After discussing with Sister S for a while, Sister S asked Gu Lian to negotiate with Liu Ying, and she herself directly picked a few producers who were interested in asking Liu Ying to star in the film to discuss the issue of salary. Because the matter was still a little urgent, Gu Lian came to Liu Ying's house with a document after breaking up with Sister S.
Liu Ying has not been able to play in the past few days, and she has not been able to go to Beijing, so the time that she originally planned to spare to go to Beijing is really free. It's rare to stay at home and not move much. When Gu Lian called Liu Ying, she gave Gu Lian an address and asked her to come to her house directly.
The so-called home is just a rented house, which is still clean, and the space is larger than that of Gu Lian, but it is far away from the set. Liu Ying doesn't live alone, she lives with her cousin and assistant Wu Qian. When Gu Lian came, Liu Ying was making a mask for herself, and Wu Qian went out to buy something.
Liu Ying is Xia Yi's first sister, Gu Lian thought that Sister S would at least arrange a suite for Liu Ying to live in a hotel near the set, but she didn't expect that Liu Ying would need to rent a house to bear the cost. Sister S treats her artists so harshly, and it is inevitable that Liu Ying will be resentful and resolute.
"If it weren't for the fact that she was really afraid of cutting Xia Yi's face, she wouldn't even want to match me with a nanny car." Liu Ying saw Gu Lian's slightly surprised expression, and snorted coldly and said.
Gu Lian didn't want to go far away on this topic, so he explained his intention. Liu Ying's reaction was just as she expected, a little surprised and puzzled.
"My brokerage contract and film and television contract were originally with the company. What kind of condition is this? Doesn't this mean that the company let go of my music contract for nothing without mentioning any conditions? Sister S will be so good? Liu Ying's first reaction was to be skeptical.
"As you said, of course Sister S is not so kind. She also had to do it. Gu Lian shook his head, "You should know that Xia Yi has been in financial difficulties recently, and the big investors in Hong Kong are about to go bankrupt, and Sister S is worried about finding money, right?" ”
This is true. Regarding Sister S's financial difficulties, Liu Ying was afraid that she knew earlier than Gu Lian. "I know that. But she wouldn't want me to pay for my own music contract, would she? Don't say I don't have money, even if I had, I wouldn't do such a stupid thing, I don't know how much money I have to exploit her every year, and I have to ask her for money. Liu Ying was half-lying on the sofa in the living room, slightly adjusting the position of the mask on her face.
"Sister S picks the door again, and she won't be so ignorant that she wants to take money out of you." Gu Lian handed the document in his hand to her, "This is the draft text of the contract, you can understand it by looking at it." ”
"I'll take a good look at it. What the hell does it mean, you can tell me briefly first, it's not convenient for me to look at it now. Liu Ying took the document and put it aside.
"To put it bluntly. It's just that Sister S plans to make good use of your film and television contract because of financial constraints, anyway, your music contract is useless in her hands, and she can't make a penny. She wants to help you accept all kinds of film and television invitations other than Xia Yi in the future, and most of the acting remuneration will be given to Xia Yi, and the original contract is divided into fifty and fifty. Gu Lian said simply, looking around.
Liu Ying's residence is no different from that of an ordinary girl, in fact, it is more messy. It is also a two-bedroom, one-living room, one-kitchen and one-bathroom layout, but wherever things can be placed, whether it is a dining table, a window sill, a cabinet, a cabinet, a coffee table, there are traces of all kinds of cosmetics everywhere. Eyeshadow, eye cream, foundation, base cream,...... Those who have been used, those who have not been opened, and wherever you look up, you can always see this kind of gadget in the corner. There were also clothes hanging haphazardly in the living room, and several pieces were draped over the sofa. The hangers on the balcony are full of all kinds of ordinary clothes with novel and workmanship. Gu Lian noticed that several of them were copycats of some new brand-name models.
Liu Ying's assistant is really just an assistant, and he is still a not so qualified assistant. Gu Lian meditated in his heart.
"This seems like something that Sister S would do." Liu Ying pondered for a while, "Is this Sister S's own idea or did you propose it?" ”
"She needs money, you need free music appointments, it just so happens that I understand the needs of both of you, and I brought it up, let you each take what you need, okay?" Gu Lian did not deny it.
"So you finally don't have to help me keep it a secret, and you're relieved, aren't you?" Liu Ying blinked, and under the white mask, her eyes were like holes in the white mask.
Gu Lian chuckled, "I didn't expect you to care about this at this time." Liu Ying, if you want to climb up, sometimes you can't be so careful. You don't always think about what Sister S you hate will get, what I can get, you have to think about what you need most. Now that you really want to release a music album as soon as possible, the first problem to solve is your music appointment. Although Mr. Zhang seems to appreciate you and starts to help you record albums, if your music contract problem is not resolved, Mr. Zhang will not break the rules no matter how much he appreciates you. If he knows that you deliberately recorded an album without him, and he is a veteran of domestic music production, do you think there is any hope for your album in the future? ”
Liu Ying looked at Gu Lian and blinked again, the mask is really a good thing, it makes people's emotions separated by a film, and it is not easy to be discovered. However, although he couldn't see Liu Ying's expression, Gu Lian also knew that what he was talking about was what Liu Ying had been worried about.
“…… At least, it seems like I'm doing well for now. "Liu Ying's confidence is not so strong.
"Really?" She immediately asked, "So I was supposed to go to Beijing, why can't I go this time?" Mr. Zhang must have told you that there is something temporary, so let you reschedule. However, you really haven't thought about it, maybe Mr. Zhang has heard something about you? If you really want to make an album for someone, you always have to inquire about the details of this person. You just wait, not thinking about solving your own problems, and really think that opportunities have fallen from the sky? ”
"Have you heard anything?" Liu Ying sat up vigilantly and stared at Gu Lian.
Gu Lian picked up a few clothes on the sofa and sat down comfortably. Liu Ying's reaction was not surprising at all. She had figured out how to deal with it before she came. As long as she grasps her weakness and makes her panic, there is no reason for her not to agree to the new contract drawn up by Sister S and herself.
"I don't have the ability to hear anything now. It's just a little guess based on my previous experience. Actually, I don't need to say that, you know that this is your big problem. Since you think you're a smart person, you don't need me to remind you of such an obvious problem. Gu Lian was pretentious, just like Liu Ying's style to herself a few days ago.
“…… However, this means that in the future, I will have to act in any bad drama that the company will help me take? Liu Ying looked at the contract text in her hand, and her tone softened unconsciously.
These words have already shown that Liu Ying has given in to the concession in her heart.
Gu Lian struck while the iron was hot. "How many of the A-list stars who are now famous have not acted in a few bad movies? I don't think there's any. The actors, actresses, and actresses can also count a lot of bad movies that they have acted in before. You're worried that this is too pediatric. Besides, you really wanted to take on the outside play, didn't you? There was a time when Sister S didn't agree with you to play the role of the second female in a historical drama, and you almost fell out with Sister S because of this, and completely ran away from Xia Yi. Now Sister S herself is also in difficulty, and she has no choice but to put forward this kind of condition, which is already very favorable for you, and gives you a chance, why did you hesitate? If Xia Yi's finances are normal, Sister S will not give you any chance at all. ”
Liu Ying was moved by Gu Lian's words, indeed, Gu Lian said it very reasonably, and every sentence was irrefutable by Liu Ying. "It seems that you do know Xia Yi very well. Even this knows. You're right, a small star like me now, it doesn't matter if there are too many bad movies, not to mention, even if it's a bad movie, you can get familiar with it if you act too much, and there's nothing wrong with expanding your popularity. That's it," Liu Ying shook the text of the contract, "Qisan Kai is too ruthless, isn't ****?" ”
In negotiations, when a person pays more and more attention to the details, it means that he has lost the mind and rationality to judge the overall situation. Gu Lian raised her eyebrows, "Do you know what Sister S's original plan was?" If it weren't for the fact that I thought it was too inappropriate, what you would see now would not be seventy-three, but eighty-two. What's more, I think that if a person really wants to do great things, climb up at all costs, no matter how humiliating things are, he should endure them. ”
Liu Ying stopped talking, and looked at Gu Lian thoughtfully, "Is this your experience?" ”
Gu Lian didn't mince words, "Yes." ”
"I'm really curious, how did you take Tianjiao to Huayue step by step? Maybe it can give me a lot of references. Liu Ying asked.
"My tuition is expensive." Gu Lian stood up and looked down at Liu Ying, his eyes were bright, "But if you want to learn, it's not that you don't have a chance at all." For example, I'm teaching you right now, and it's up to you to learn something. ”
"I'll get back to you tomorrow." Liu Ying also got up and solemnly put the contract text on the table.
On the surface, although this contract is a bit harsh on Liu Ying, it is not completely unreasonable. After all, for Liu Ying, the most important thing to come up with a record is to have a free music contract, and for this reason, fulfilling this contract is also within her power. However, that was based on the premise that she was really going to release a record.
If there is no such premise, then Liu Ying is equivalent to taking another step towards Xia Yi's overlord contract. I had a record in hand, but no album to come out, and the free contract was just a blank slate, worthless. And after Liu Ying promised to unconditionally obey Xia Yi's film and television arrangements, and handed over most of the remuneration to Xia Yi, Sister S will accept various drama contracts in the name of Liu Ying without restraint in the future. As far as Gu Lian knows, at present, Sister S has planned to wait for Liu Ying to sign the contract, and arrange three messy bad movies for Liu Ying that the grass platform team outside temporarily put together.
In the current film and television industry, actors with a little seniority and fame are mainly paid in three steps, one-third is paid when the play is signed, one-third is paid when the play is signed, one-third is paid when he joins the group, and all remuneration is paid after the completion of the film. Once Liu Ying signed contracts with these three dramas respectively, Sister S could immediately occupy all of Liu Ying's upfront remuneration, and no matter what, it could also alleviate Xia Yi's current predicament a little.
I'm afraid that from the day Liu Ying agreed to the new contract with Xia Yi, Liu Ying really has no free body, she will be a performance machine on the set all the time, and at the same time become Xia Yi's money-making machine.
And before this negotiation with Liu Ying began, her fate had already been decided, and there was no better choice.
Gu Lian naturally wouldn't tell her the news that Transle Records was going to be acquired by Huayue, maybe even if she knew the news, she wouldn't necessarily know what impact it would have on the record she wanted to release.
Gu Lian had already warned Liu Ying that it was not so easy to get into the circle in the capital. She relied too much on her own cleverness, thinking that she could easily trap Gu Lian, but she was defenseless, not knowing that the prey could also bite back at any time and turn the hunter into her prey.
For Liu Ying, this is indeed a very good lesson, which can be called a bloody lesson. I'm afraid that after this lesson, Liu Ying doesn't have the strength to turn over and use these experiences.
"Good. I hope you think it through as soon as possible. Gu Lian smiled and raised his hand to look at his watch. She was also worried about the situation on the set, more precisely, Chenxing's situation.
Pei Yueyue hasn't sent any news now, so there shouldn't be any problem.
Whatever you worry about, you can come. Gu Lian's mobile phone rang immediately as if it had a sense.
"Hey, Gu Lian,......" Pei Yueyue sobbed on the phone, "Chenxing, he fainted again, this time he has a very serious fever, and the assistant director is helping to take him to the hospital." What to do,......"
Gu Lian's heart paused.
