Chapter 304: Piercing the Sky

South Korea's SBS TV, in the news, the host's mouth was closed one by one, and the press release in the reader's hand in front of the camera shocked the whole person to the point of no return.

"Shinhwa Group, a South Korean brokerage company, sued 10 large Korean brokerage companies to the Seoul court, asking the Seoul court to declare the contracts of the top 10 Korean brokerage companies null and void."

"The Seoul court in South Korea recently issued a notice to 10 large entertainment companies in South Korea, requiring these companies to modify 10 unfair terms in the contract, and it is reported that a total of 46 clauses in the contract involving 10 types of entertainment companies received the notice are unfair terms, and a total of 204 artists are involved in the agreement." -- KBS TV.

"The Seoul court in South Korea said that although the artist's command by the agency is determined by the particularity of the entertainment industry, the agency should not even interfere in the artist's private life." -- MBC TV.

The three major TV stations broadcast the news together, and the entertainment industry was shaken.

The newspaper, which had chosen to ban Li Lin and others under pressure from major brokerage companies, immediately fell into a tangle.

If you don't report it, you can't cover it up at all, but if you report it, the major brokerage companies are not easy to mess with, and they may really cut off the news.

Soon, though, they won't have to worry about it.

Because a lawyer's letter took them to court.

The Shinhwa Group sued all of them in the Seoul court on the grounds that newspapers such as Seoul Ilbo, Chosun Ilbo, Korea Ilbo, and Dong-A Ilbo monopolized and manipulated public opinion.

"Crazy." Song Zhenyu, editor-in-chief of Dong-A Daily, looked at the lawyer's letter in his hand, and his first reaction was that the mythical combination was crazy. Aren't they afraid that our newspapers will speak ill of him in the future?

Then, he reacted, as if he had blocked them.

"They're desperate." Song Zhenyu's voice was angry. "They will soon disappear from the entertainment industry, and it is impossible for major newspapers and major brokerage companies to let him go."

The door slammed open, and a newspaper editor walked in, "Editor-in-chief, do we still want to report on their news?" ”

"Report." Editor-in-chief Song Zhenyu gritted his teeth and said.

"Well, I told them not to ...... Hey. Is it a report? The newspaper editor reacted, and what he heard was as if it was a report," the editor-in-chief. I didn't hear it clearly, can you say it again. ”

He knew the news that the Korean brokerage company blocked Lee Hyo-ri, the Mythical Group, and Li Lin, and in his eyes, the editor-in-chief should say not to report it. And not reporting.

"Report." Song Zhenyu roared. "Why don't you report it? Is it not possible to substantiate their accusations? Monopoly, manipulation of public opinion, are we able to afford such accusations? ”

The newspaper industry is a special industry, although it is not profitable, but it has a great influence, and even many politicians have to rely on it, but at the same time that politicians rely on it, it also offends many politicians. If they seize the opportunity to counterattack other newspapers from entertainment newspapers. Rectification from the top down, then they will lose a lot.

After all, each major newspaper is definitely not stored separately.

"What about the other brokerages?" The newspaper editor hesitated, "How do we explain?" ”

"them!"

The next day, the major newspapers fought back.

"Recently, Shinhwa Combination Company issued a request to the Seoul Court, asking the Seoul Court to declare the slave contract of the Ten Brokerage Companies invalid." -- Dong-A Ilbo

After the Shinhwa group announced 10 types of unfair terms, it caused an uproar in South Korea, and the "slave agreement" between the agency and the artist was once again controversial. -- Korea Ilbo.

In the afternoon of the same day, Lee Hyo-ri held a press conference, and all the newspapers that had been sent lawyer's letters were present, and no one dared not come, and the two swords of Damocles of monopoly and manipulation of entertainment were still hanging over their heads.

"This is my contract with DSP."

The artist contract, which was supposed to be kept secret, was made public for the first time, and Lee Hyo-ri, whose face was still red and swollen, had been waiting for this day for a long time.

She counted word by word the clause that 'if the artist terminates the contract with the company during the contract period, the artist shall not sign the same agreement with other companies, and even after the contract expires, the artist shall not sign an agreement with other companies, otherwise legal responsibility will be pursued", and her voice was sad.

"After an artist signs a contract, it means that he will always be an artist of the DSP company, even if the DSP company doesn't want it, you can't sign a contract with other agencies."

This is the overlord clause.

A visa is for life, and there is no guarantee for this life.

"Other industry contracts only stipulate that employment cannot be banned for one or more years after leaving the company, but the company will also give corresponding compensation." Lee Hyo-ri's voice was loud, "But the contract of the DSP company is not like this at all. ”

"It's not compensated, and it's banned for life, it's overbearing, it's a slave, it's a contract that violates Korean law."

"And these ......"

"Artists must first obtain permission from the agency when they go abroad."

"Artists need to let their agencies know where they are at all times."

"The life of an artist (including friendship, study, nationality, military service, communication, economic activities, social activities, and means of transportation) must be arranged by the agency."

"Artists appear in promotional performances for free."

"Agencies can use songs created by artists as they please."

Lee Hyo-ri's voice suppressed unbearable anger, "Are we the company's artists or the company's slaves?" The staff of the company are freer than us. ”

"I also have a combination with Mythology, Kim Jong Kook, Ahn Qixuan, Rain, and TVXQ...... and other artists have signed similar contracts. ”

"The company doesn't treat us as human beings at all."

"I now ask the court to support our artists, and ask the Seoul court to declare the contract between our artist and the agency null and void."

The reporter was shocked and couldn't say a word.

Who doesn't know about vampire contracts? Who doesn't know about slave contracts? But no artist will stand up, and no artist will publicly testify against major brokerage companies.

But now. Someone stood up, and it was a Korean diva.

They realized something big was coming!

"This is Huaxia's artist contract." Lee Hyo-ri threw another bombshell, and she spread out the contract. In front of the reporter, "there is no clause that 'the agency arbitrarily uses the songs created by the artist'. ”

"There is no clause that 'the artist will appear in a promotional performance for free'."

"There is no clause that 'artists must first obtain permission from the agency when they go abroad'."

"There's no 'artists have to let their agency know where they are at all times.'"

……

Lee Hyo-ri angrily counted, compared with the Korean artist contract and the Chinese artist contract, it is simply the same place, a day, whether it is terms or shares, the Chinese artist contract has completely exploded the Korean artist contract of the same level.

Don't be afraid of not knowing the goods. I'm afraid to shop around!

"We are asking for the same contract as our Huaxia counterparts."

The contract is Li Lin's contract, one of the top contracts in China, not only divided into generous shares. Moreover, the terms of the contract are relaxed, which can be summed up as not violating the law and priority.

Rock!

Li Haoyan looked at Li Xiaoli in the TV in a daze, and he didn't know that the coffee cup fell to the ground, "Is she crazy?" ”

"She's making enemies of the entire Korean entertainment industry."

"There's no way she's going to mess around."

"This is self-isolation from the entertainment industry."

The voice continued to swirl in Li Haoyan's heart. He sued himself that Lee Hyo-ri had died by himself. However, he also knew that he was going to be finished.

"Don't pull me if you want to die, bastard!"

Trance......

He already knows the future!

The court went to trial, and then all sectors of society got involved, the government intervened, and South Korean agencies were forced to modify their contracts to improve the treatment of artists. Then the profits of major brokerage companies plummeted, and the winter of the Korean music scene came. Maybe it's the winter of the entire Korean entertainment industry.

He doesn't believe that the singer's salary will be improved, and the actor will have no idea in his heart.

As the culprit, he will be kicked into the bottom of the Han River, and there will be another missing person or homicide case in the police station.

"How dare she ...... like that." Li Haoyan slumped on the chair, his eyes distracted, "She is digging the foundation of the Korean entertainment industry." ”

Things have come to this point, it is no longer a matter of the entertainment industry, the government will inevitably intervene, slaves, are not allowed to be stored in civilized society, once exposed, they will definitely die.

He didn't know that next year, the suicide of a female artist named Lee Eun-joo would set off a frenzy of public opinion, and all walks of life in South Korea would discuss the existence of slave contracts, and the South Korean government would intervene and force the major Korean brokerage companies to rectify.

"Nope." Li Haoyan screamed violently, "I can't go on like this, I definitely can't continue like this, I must calm down." ”

Li Haoyan grabbed his mobile phone and dialed a phone number.

Lee Hyo-ri, who was walking out of the press conference, felt a sudden shock on her phone, she glanced at the number and immediately pressed the answer button.

"Lee Hyori, I will terminate the contract with you, I will terminate the contract with you......."

Li Haoyan's screaming voice came out of the mobile phone, and Li Xiaoli's face stiffened and smiled, "It's useless for you to terminate the contract with me now, the situation is no longer under our control!" ”

No more control!

Li Haoyan fell softly on the chair, he muttered, and the whole person lost his spirit, "Yes, things have come to such a point, even if you take back your words, it's useless." ”

The matter has become a big one, and it is inevitable that the South Korean government will be alarmed.

"Wait...... Wrong. ”

Li Haoyan suddenly grabbed a little bit of vitality, "That's right...... There is one last hope. ”

"Lee Hyori, I ask you to immediately tell the media that everything was made up by you, and ...... immediately Right now...... Do it right away. ”

As long as Lee Hyori carries it on, they operate again, and all the turmoil will subside.

"Impossible." Li Xiaoli shook his head firmly, "If you want me to carry the black pot, there is no door." ”

"If you don't agree, just wait to be banned!" Li Haoyan has completely lost his demeanor.

"Block it, block it, I'll wait for you." (To be continued......)
