Chapter 200: Fueling the Flames
Since March 8, Kara sued the DSP company, all their activities have been forced to stop, perhaps the DSP company is putting pressure on KARA, so that they will retreat, but the girls do not have the slightest idea of withdrawing the lawsuit, they have come to this point, stay in the DSP company, the future will not be better, they have made up their minds.
On the afternoon of March 8th, the representative of YG Company came to the door, and the person who came was none other than Li Zhina, Han Fei's agent, who is currently filming a TV series, so this agent, who is also idle, has been a lobbyist since then. Before coming, Yang Hyun Suk clearly told her, "Kara, we are bound to win, the conditions are at their disposal, as long as it does not exceed our limit, there is no problem!" ”
Yang Xianshuo's tone was very firm, and his eyes flashed with essence, as if this time, he was ready to do a big one.
Kara welcomed Lee Chi-na through the door, and the five of them were in the dormitory.
After Li Zhina sat down, she opened the door and said directly: "I came on behalf of YG company, and now we know the recent situation of KARA, and we are very aware of it, and DSP has come to this point, even if DSP compromises, your future life will not be better than going there, some announcements, staged can make you breathless!" If you are willing to leave DSP, we are happy to sign you, and you can open the conditions, as long as it does not exceed the scope we can bear, we can promise you! ”
The five girls sat on the sofa, you look at me, I look at you, everyone made eye contact, and finally focused their eyes on Park Gyu-ri, as the captain, Park Gyu-ri must now stand up and speak.
"Yes, we don't want to stay at DSP anymore, and we've had enough of it in the last year or two, but can YG guarantee that if we sign a contract, the company won't owe us any financial benefits in the future?" Thinking that DSP was still in arrears for 8 months' fixed salary, Park Gyu-ri could only reluctantly accept it, after all, Kara was just a small arm and couldn't twist DSP's thighs.
"You can rest assured, the company will never owe you any income, don't dare to say anything else, just say some of the situations I know, I am Han Fei's agent, I am also very clear about Han Fei's income, his salary for TV series shooting, advertising salary, mini album income, copyright in his hands of the song income dividends, this series of economic benefits, the company will remit part of his income to his account as soon as possible, you don't have to worry about your income being deducted by the company!" Li Zhina explained. "There are also some conditions about your contract, you can also put it forward, if you can agree, I can agree to it now, and if it is difficult to accept, I will also notify the company's senior management and let them make a decision!" "If YG company really has the sincerity to sign us, first, to help us pay off the liquidated damages, although we sue DSP company, but our contract still has one year to expire, to unilaterally terminate the contract with the company, you need to pay a high liquidated damages; Second, there is the problem of income control, the previous contract signed with DSP company, basically there is no income, so we hope that in the future, whether it is album revenue, music source revenue, or commercial performances, announcements, advertisements, TV dramas, endorsements, etc., we can share 4:6 with the company. Park Gyu-ri said boldly.
4:6 sharing, this is already an artist contract with a high salary, only people who are really at the top of the pyramid can enjoy this kind of treatment, and some people with identity backgrounds who dare not be squeezed by brokerage companies can enjoy this high treatment. When Park Gyu-ri proposed a 4:6 split, the eyes of the other four girls lit up, if YG company can really agree, then the temptation for them is really too great, even if 4 into 10, everyone can get less than 10%, but 5 people can get 40 percent, and their hearts are already very satisfied. They all looked at Li Zhina with expectant eyes.
Li Zhina lowered her head and secretly estimated it in her heart, Yang Xianshuo seemed to be ready to hemorrhage before she came, and now Kara proposed a 4:6 share, which is not a condition that cannot be agreed, and there is also Han Fei's 5:5 share contract there, and the 4:6 share seems to be very beneficial to the company.
"I can also agree to this for the company, do you have any other conditions you want to propose?" Li Zhina looked up and said.
When Kara heard Li Zhina's reply, her heart was almost full of joy, and she was overjoyed.
Park Gyu-ri continued, "And how often can the company let us release an album? ”
"It's not for me to decide, but I'll help you bring this question back and let the senior management make a decision!" Li Zhina replied.
Kara's conditions, in fact, are very simple, except for the distribution of economic benefits, the rest is not a problem, they have been used to running for a long time, used to sleeping in the car, used to working all night, these are acceptable to them, but the premise is that their interests can not be harmed, after several years of exploitation by DSP, several people are also clearly distinguished, their own interests, absolutely put me in their own hands.
Then Park Gyu-ri put forward some conditions, but for Li Zhina, these are irrelevant, and they all agreed, and after nearly two hours of conversation, Kara reached an intention to join YG as soon as the contract with DSP company is terminated.
Two hours later, Li Zhina left, and Li Zhina walked on the front foot, and the representative of S.M company came to the door on the back foot, but in the conversation with S.M representatives, it was obvious that S.M's sincerity was not as high as YG's company, at least they only agreed to the 3:7 distribution of economic benefits, and 3: distribution was only some commercial performances, concerts and the like, and some peripherals, endorsements, advertisements and the like, S.M proposed a 2:8 distribution, which made Kara perceive, perhaps, YG company's conditions, It's already superior.
After the representative of S.M company left, the representative of JYP came to the door again, but in comparison, Kara was more inclined to YG, at least the strength of YG company, not necessarily JYP bad, compared with S.M, although it was a step worse, but after all, it could also be squeezed into the top few of Korean brokerage companies, and the conditions that YG could accept were rejected by the other two.
The tragic S.M and JYP seem to be helping YG and push Kara into YG's arms!
