At 3 o'clock in the morning, Xu Jin said goodbye to his parents and sister and stepped on the plane from the magic capital to the imperial capital.

It took about two and a half hours to fly from the magic capital to the imperial capital, and by the time Xu Jin came out of the airport, it had already come to half past five.

This is the New Year's Day and early in the morning, the Imperial Capital Airport is rare and rarely sees the driver of soliciting, the kittens are gathered at the door, and they don't say hello when they see someone coming out, and several drivers chat very happily by themselves.

Xu Jin lowered his head, walked to the nearest driver, and asked, "Where is the nearest hotel near here?" ”

The driver said: "The airport in the imperial capital is built partially, you can only find a hotel outside the airport, and the nearest should take half an hour." ”

The others replied: "Yes, it takes half an hour, the last time I drove a guest to a nearby hotel, it was half an hour." ”

Xu Jin said: "Then take me over first, many places have not opened early in the morning." ”

The driver said boldly: "Okay, but the fare will be a little more expensive, and I still want to come out to run a car during the New Year, just to charge more fares." ”

Xu Jin saw that the driver had explained in advance, and also smiled: "Yes, as long as you don't give me a price of four or five times, then it's no problem." ”

The driver said with a smile: "How dare you drive 4 times as high, but it is one or two hundred more than usual!" ”

Xu Jin first put the things in his hand in the driver's trunk, and the driver helped him put them together, seeing that he was carrying a suitcase and a lot of New Year's goods, he couldn't help asking: "Are you just going home to visit relatives now, and you came back from working in other places?" ”

Xu Jin shook his head, "How can I go home at this time, won't my parents want to scold me to death, this year has already passed, what's the use of going back now?" I've already returned from my hometown and come to work here in the imperial capital. ”

Put the salute away, the driver and Xu Jin got into the car, and the driver continued the previous topic: "What do you do, did the company let you come back to work so early, then this company is too inhumane!" ”

As an actor, Xu Jin didn't learn much other skills, but this serious nonsense has learned seven images.

He smiled and said, "Uncle, I'm in the service industry, isn't it about to end the New Year?" The imperial capital will soon become bustling and lively.

Let's just say that today is the third day of the Lunar New Year, there are also many people who choose to eat and drink outside, and don't do it yourself at home.

In addition, the salary of the Chinese New Year has to rise, so I will come back one step ahead of schedule in order to avoid the peak of returning to the city in the future. ”

The driver glanced at Xu Jin several times in the rearview mirror, and suddenly asked, "Young man, aren't you a star?" ”

Xu Jin's eyelids jumped, could it be that this uncle's eyes were so sharp, what did he recognize?

Xu Jin laughed: "If I can be a star, I won't be so lonely when I get out of the airport, no matter how I say it, I have to get a few fans to come over to pick me up and show the card field, not to mention that there are fans, but the assistant and agent will at least arrive, right?" ”

The driver nodded, "That's right, in the past few years, many celebrities have come down from the imperial capital airport by plane, and each of them has hugged each other, full of posture, I haven't seen a star who has not been a single person, and he is so miserable." ”

I don't know what came to mind, the driver smiled again, "If I want to say that if I can't be a star to this point, then just change careers."

Celebrities make money only by the top few who make money, not all celebrities can make money, and the salaries of most second- and third-tier stars may be a little better than the income of our ordinary workers. ”

Xu Jin nodded approvingly, "I heard that the salary of some starlets is not as good as that of those who often play tricks on the set, but how hard it is to run tricks on the set, all kinds of dirty work have to be done, and people earn hard money."

But the little star relies on his identity as a star, he will definitely not do this kind of work, and he can't get a job, so he has nothing to do most of the time, and he won't make much money in a year. ”

Seeing that this uncle has a good understanding of the current situation of the entertainment industry, Xu Jin asked curiously: "Why did the uncle suddenly talk about this, why, is anyone in your family a star?" ”

The driver glanced in the rearview mirror, "I see that you are dressed very similar to those stars, and you are wearing a hat, mask and sunglasses, covering yourself tightly." ”

Xu Jin said without changing his face: "This is called a trend, and young people have been dressed like this recently." ”

The driver sighed: "Maybe, I'm old, and I don't understand the thoughts of those young people, listening to your voice, you shouldn't be old, right, twenty-one and twelve?" ”

"Uh-huh, yes." Xu Jin chose to pretend to be tender without hesitation.

The driver said: "Hey, you are the same age as my son, my son graduated from college this year, and he had already found him a stable job, and the benefits were very good, but he suddenly resigned after half a year and told me that he wanted to be a star." ”

"I asked him why he wanted to be a star, and he said that he wanted to follow in the footsteps of his idol, and his idol was the famous actor named Xu Jin. Do you recognize Xu Jin? ”

Xu Jin sweated on his forehead, and said weakly: "I recognize, big star, the movie he acted in last year was quite famous, and the theme song was sung by him, and many people sang along with him at that time, and I also set the song "Painted Skin" as my theme ringtone." ”

The driver said, "Yes, yes, that's him." Alas, I don't know how to say that my son is good, other people's big stars have the ability to be big stars, and he doesn't know anything.

Dance, dance doesn't work. Singing, singing pentatonic incomplete. The appearance is not as handsome and dashing as those ones. What future can he have as an idol? ”

"I was about to talk about it well, but he told me that he went to a company as a trainee, saying that he could promise to make his debut like Xu Jin and arrange supporting roles for him in several TV series, and it was up to him whether he could seize the opportunity."

Xu Jin raised his eyebrows: "What kind of company is that brokerage company, such a big tone can guarantee him to debut like Xu Jin, I remember that Xu Jin's company is a very famous company in the industry." ”

The driver shook his head: "I don't know if he's famous, anyway, I look at him like I'm in a demon, as if someone has poured him ecstasy soup, and he just wants to be a big star to make money." ”

Xu Jin thought for a while, and his tone was slightly serious: "Uncle, you have to take care of this matter, check it, if it is a well-known company in the industry, it will be fine."

But well-known companies generally don't promise newcomers that they can make him like so-and-so, and only those who are not well-known will say such things, because they have no qualifications, so they can only rely on verbal incentives.

，

But this kind of company that is not well-known is easy for people to fall into the trap. ”

"I saw a news before, saying that a brokerage company specializes in tricking new actors to sign contracts, and this signing has to be signed for 20 years.

This kind of company doesn't give newcomers a chance to develop, so they let them go on for 20 years, during which they don't give them work outside, they can only wait for the company to distribute the work, and many actors can't stand it and propose to terminate the contract, guess what? ”

The driver hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Xu Jin: "The company is waiting for them to terminate the contract, so that they can pay liquidated damages!" This kind of company is dedicated to cheating others of liquidated damages, relying on liquidated damages to make money. ”

The driver was shocked: "Huh? Can you still do this? ”

Xu Jin raised his eyebrows, "Yes, why can't you?" This kind of company is to cast a wide net, specifically looking for young people who want to become stars, to trick them into signing long contracts, wasting their time.

The company said that if you think the contract is unreasonable, you can go to me to have a relationship, if it is judged that my contract is indeed unreasonable, then we will not only terminate the contract but also lose money to you in turn.

Those newcomers don't believe it, so they go to court, but people are specifically seizing the breach of contract to make money, how can they make the contract design flawed? ”

Xu Jin continued: "The liquidated damages may not be very much, two or three hundred thousand yuan per person, but look at how many people the company has signed?"

10 people is 2 million, 20 people is 4 million, and those entertainment companies rely on these liquidated damages to live very well! ”

The driver was a little confused: "But, did you say that you want to give newcomers a chance to train?" ”

Xu Jin Youzai said: "The key is that they have already given you a chance, if there are so many newcomers who debut through the opportunities given by the company and have a little fame, it will be even better, they can make more money when they get up as a star."

If you can get up, it's good, but if you can't, there's no way, even if you go to court, it's useless, because the company has not fulfilled the obligations mentioned in the contract.

He has given you a notice, that is, it has been fulfilled, but you can't get up if you don't fight yourself. If you can't get a little heat in the early stage, then you will naturally not be able to receive the notice in the later stage. ”

"That's how cruel the reality is. How many stars are in the entertainment industry, how many can get up, and those who can appear in our minds are all very good stars. ”

The driver said cautiously: "Then I will definitely ask my baby after I go back to see what kind of company he signed and whether the contract period is particularly long." ”

Xu Jin said: "Yes! If you look at the contract period, even if it is a large company, the contract period is only 10 years at most, and it has never been said to be as long as 20 years, 25 years, or 30 years.

If it's really that long, there must be a problem.

Your child has just signed a contract, if you really sign an unreliable company, when the company has not arranged the first notice for your baby, you can go to the gate of the company to cancel the contract, in order not to be affected, these companies will basically choose to go private. ”

The driver didn't know what to think, and said eagerly: "Young man, I see that you know these things very well, are you specialized in the entertainment industry?" ”

Xu Jin hurriedly said: "No, uncle, I just work in the service industry, and I work very hard to do catering." ”

The driver said: "Young man, why don't we exchange contact information with each other, your head looks good, if I check the contract after I go back and find that the contract is really wrong, I will tell you again, tell you about the follow-up." ”

Xu Jin said with a smile: "Uncle, I'm just a small employee, not a lawyer, if you want to ask for help, it's useless to look for me." ”

Driver: "I know, I just see that you are a good young man, you are pleasing to the eye, what can you help me, you must be looking for a lawyer!" In case the contract is really fake, I have to bring my baby to the door to thank you and treat you to a meal. ”

Xu Jin smiled: "No, no, no, I'll just say it casually." ”

The driver didn't think so: "You said it casually, maybe you saved my baby's life, how can you spend your years in the company at such a young age?" ”

"Come on, come on, let's exchange contact information when we get off the bus!"

Xu Jin thought for a while: "Okay. ”

In fact, he is quite interested in the follow-up of this matter, he has heard of the chaos in the industry, and some companies are so messy.

But he wasn't sure if the driver's son had signed a contract with an unreliable company, and he happened to meet him.

The driver communicated with Xu Jin very smoothly, because of Xu Jin's reminder, when the driver sent Xu Jin to the hotel, he did not increase the price with Xu Jin, and charged according to the usual distance.

As soon as Xu Jin heard the price quoted by the driver, he felt that something was wrong: "Are you reporting less?" ”

The driver said: "You young man is very good, I won't raise your price, and I will quote it at the usual price." ”

Xu Jin: "No, no, it's hard for you to run a car during the Chinese New Year, and the price increase is nothing." ”

As he spoke, he asked for an extra 100-yuan bill to hand the driver.

The driver hurriedly dodged, waved his hand and said, "No, no, really no!" ”

"If my son is really cheated, I have to thank you in return!" The driver shouted.

Xu Jin also shouted: "It's one thing to thank you when the time comes, but now it's now, isn't it that you haven't investigated yet, you can take this hundred yuan for me!" ”

Seeing Xu Jin's resolute attitude, the driver accepted the 100 yuan half-pushed, and helped Xu Jin carry his luggage to the hotel, and said to Xu Jin: "I will run a car at the Imperial Capital Airport, you can call me when you come to the airport in the future, I will send you, and I will not charge you expensive!" ”

Xu Jin smiled and said, "Okay! ”

These are all polite words, and when the driver's son's contract is found out, there will be no problem, and there will be no relationship.

When he came to the hotel, Xu Jin slept first, he was tired from taking a plane, and he could sleep even on the plane, but sleeping in the air felt different from sleeping on the ground.

Before going to bed, he sent the hotel address to Qin Kewen, asking him to come to him when he was free, he had already arrived.

Qin Kewen's house is not far from the hotel, and it takes him forty minutes to drive, and he came to the hotel at half past nine, called Xu Jin and asked him to open the door for him.

Xu Jin slept a little deeply, and Qin Kewen made three calls in a row before he answered.

Xu Jin scratched his head blankly, still a little confused: "You are free." ”

Qin Kewen looked at him and said, "What's the matter with you coming to the imperial capital, the plane at 3 o'clock in the morning came early in the morning, I thought you were the plane that came here today." ”
