207: Trapped
When Wang Luo was still making various efforts for the release of "Infernal Affairs", he didn't know that his movie had been leaked.
But happiness and pain often go hand in hand.
just received a gambling amount of 100 million from Liu Shaochuan, but negative information about Roselle Entertainment was exposed on the Internet.
Of course, this negative information came from Han Xue.
In a short period of time, almost all major forums and news pages have appeared in this news.
After seeing this news, Wang Luo didn't even have to think about it to know that someone must be behind it.
The labor law stipulates that all companies are not allowed to have unauthorized access to company members with a contract period of more than half a year (except by agreement between companies).
That is to say, when all contracts are left for more than half a year, no company can poach people privately, and there is only one way to poach people during this time period.
Negotiate with the other company first, and as long as they are willing to release the person, then you can contact the party.
Violation of this regulation will result in penalties depending on the severity of the case.
The penalty is mainly divided into two parts, first, a fine of not less than one million, which will be changed according to the actual situation.
Second, the right to contract is limited to one year, and the right to contract is limited to up to five years in serious cases.
Restricting the right to sign a contract is a nightmare for all companies, and if this fine is generally issued, it is almost impossible for the company to have a big development within the penalty period.
Without fresh blood to join, it is even difficult to defend Chengdu.
Restriction of contracting rights. As the name suggests, this is a protective law for all companies with personnel with term contracts.
In order to prevent other companies from maliciously poaching people, but in fact, this law has been implemented since the present. There was also a total of one ticket.
And that company was also in pain in those years, its performance plummeted, and the artists had no intention of developing at all, and they all expressed their desire to leave.
After the end of the restriction period, the company did not have much strength to sign other artists, and finally had to close its doors.
This restriction does not mean that the company cannot sign a person, but it does not have the right to contact the artist during the contract period. You can only sign from those freelance artists.
To put it more bluntly. It is to deprive you of the right to freely contact artists who only have half a year left on the contract, as well as the right to buy out artists during the contract period.
This time, Wang Luo ignored this, but he violated the law carelessly.
Originally, Wang Luo thought. As long as people go directly to Xiangjiang to sign the buyout contract, there will not be so many things at all.
But the reality gave Wang Luo a slap in the face, from the initial initiative to the current passivity.
And it all started in one day. Or rather. After Han Xue walked out of Tianjing Airport and came to Roselle Entertainment, all this has already begun.
"I see!" Wang Luo responded a little weakly, and then hung up the phone.
He didn't give any instructions to the person on the other end of the line, and he didn't know how to do it.
Although the law is perfect, it is impossible for every law to be free of loopholes, and these loopholes are in people.
Now the results are already obvious. These behind-the-scenes promoters are likely to be Han Xue's company in Xiangjiang.
The buyout of five million is not low. But they are far from satisfied with just five million.
They want to get more liquidated damages from Wang Luo, and if they follow the contract, it is impossible for them to take an extra penny.
But when this matter is exposed, the situation is different.
Or it can be said that now they have completely grasped the initiative, Wang Luo has to give as much as they want, otherwise, he can only face being fined.
The call just now was from the staff sent to Xiangjiang, and Qiu Ya Company, which originally said that it could negotiate, had just directly rejected the buyout of Roselle Entertainment.
Their purpose is clear, anyone can see that they want money.
And Wang Luo has only one way to waive the fine, and that is to give money and let Qiu Ya's company come forward to claim that Han Xue's appearance in Roselle Entertainment is in accordance with the law.
It can even be said that there is only one night left for Wang Luo to consider, and at most there is only one day.
Tomorrow at the earliest, or the day after tomorrow at the latest, the Arbitration Association will send an investigation team to investigate this matter.
Once Qiu Ya's company bites them to death and doesn't receive any news before, then what awaits Wang Luo will be an extremely serious fine.
"! What a fucking bunch of bloodsuckers. Wang Luo punched the bed and gritted his teeth with hatred.
In addition to being angry, Wang Luo quickly calmed down.
No matter how angry he was, Wang Luo didn't dare to challenge the authority of the law.
After getting a call from the person in charge of Xiangjiang, Wang Luo directly dialed the phone number of the senior management of Qiu Ya Company.
This matter must be resolved quickly, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.
A minute later, Wang Luo threw the phone to the ground again in anger. Fortunately, the quality of the phone is not bad, and it is not broken.
The other party bit the price this time, and if they want to not testify, they must come up with 50 million liquidated damages.
This is a tenfold increase in liquidated damages from the contract, which already constitutes extortion.
But it's very helpless, one is that the current mobile phone is required to protect personal privacy, so the call cannot be recorded.
In one, even if it is recorded, it is useless, at most it is a lose-lose situation.
Although the recording can determine the other party's blackmail, it also confirms the evidence of Wang Luo's violation.
"Damn, I'm going to make you regret it someday." Wang Luo said angrily.
Fifty million, Wang Luo plans to try to lower the price again, if it really doesn't work, Wang Luo can only accept his fate.
Even Zhang Shilin couldn't help with this matter, and they didn't dare to help with it.
The two worlds are the same, once everything is big, there will be results, and only then will those forces dare not intervene easily.
As soon as Wang Luo wanted to dial that number, Zeng Zhiwei's phone called.
"Uncle Wei!" After connecting the phone, Wang Luo said a little depressed.
"Arlo, what's going on? Why is it so big this time? As soon as the phone was connected, Zeng Zhiwei's anxious voice came.
"This time I was careless, and I was plotted by someone with a heart." Wang Luo said helplessly.
"Do all your in-house counsel eat dry food? Why don't you even understand this? Zeng Zhiwei was also a little angry.
But this time, they are caring about Wang Luo as a friend, and the cooperation of a movie makes them feel like they hate to see each other late.
As soon as he heard about this, Zeng Zhiwei hurriedly called Wang Luo.
"Hey, don't blame them, it's my fault this time." Wang Luo responded.
This time, the Ministry of Justice was indeed wronged, and Wang Luo did not ask the Ministry of Justice about this matter at all.
Even before Han Xue appeared in the company, the legal department didn't know about it.
And when the legal department saw Han Xue in the company, they also immediately found Wang Luo, and they gave two opinions. First, talk to the other party about the buyout as soon as possible. Second, Han Xue appeared in the company because of personal relationships and had nothing to do with business.
But who would have thought that Han Xue was in a hurry to work, which was originally a good thing, but now it has become the most fatal thing.
What's even worse is that there was a mole in the company, but the photo was not taken, but the picture of Han Xue recording a song in the recording studio was filmed.
And even if there is no such picture, as long as the matter is big, wait for the arbitration association to intervene.
They're going to be there to mobilize surveillance, and there's still no way to explain it when the time comes.
"Hey, what are you going to do about this? Have you contacted them? Zeng Zhiwei sighed, so far, there is only one way to go.
"The other party bites to death and asks for 50 million." Wang Luo said.
"Fifty million? How much is Han Xue's liquidated damages? Zeng Zhiwei's angry roar came from inside the earpiece.
"Five million." Wang Luo said.
"Let them die, fifty million, why not five hundred million?" After hearing the amount of liquidated damages, Zeng Zhiwei was completely angry.
This kind of thing generally requires twice the liquidated damages, and Han Xue is not a big-name star, and her reputation in Xiangjiang during this time is not as good as when she first debuted.
Such a slightly famous newcomer dared to ask for 50 million?
This is Wang Luo's insistence on going his own way this time, just in the 'trap' of the law, in such a situation, if the other company does not slaughter you, it is simply sorry for the sky, sorry for the earth, sorry for the masses of the people.
But it was the first time Zeng Zhiwei had heard of ten times the liquidated damages.
"I'll go and find out for you first, and I'll talk about it when I call." After the anger, Zeng Zhiwei gradually calmed down.
There is really no other way to talk about this matter than to talk to the other party.
As for the liquidated damages of 50 million, Zeng Zhiwei definitely does not want to see it.
Therefore, Zeng Zhiwei wants to rely on his connections and connections to let the other party reduce the liquidated damages as much as possible.
Friend, you help me, I'll help you.
Moreover, Zeng Zhiwei also saw Wang Luo's potential, and it was worth investing in Wang Luo.
Not only that, Zeng Zhiwei also has a bigger plan, but this plan will not be said until the movie is released.
"Okay, I'll wait for your call." Wang Luo was a little weak.
Now Wang Luo really feels like a dog, and he is used to having a smooth ride these days, so he doesn't take everything seriously.
And Wang Luo always inadvertently mixes the two worlds, always forgetting that the laws of this world are much more perfect than that world.
If Wang Luo had lived in this world from the beginning, then the sense of law would have been very strong, and this kind of thing would definitely not have happened.
And the current state is a taboo for anyone.
Modesty makes people progress, pride makes people backward, this sentence is not groundless, it is very suitable for Wang Luo. (To be continued......)
