Chapter 50: Never Sign!
The other top ten players knew that Lin Li and Wu Ruobing had not signed, and they were all happy in their hearts.
Next week will be 10 into 8, so from this point of view, it is a sure thing that Lin Li and Wu Ruobing will be eliminated.
Then they'll be safe.
They are naturally happy at the thought that they have gone from being in the top ten to the top eight.
Only Li Mengfei, seeing that Lin Li dared to face Tianyun's vice president on such an occasion and angrily scolded the unreasonableness of the contract, she actually admired Lin Li a little.
I don't have that kind of courage myself.
Thinking of the scene where Lin Li stepped forward to save himself in the crowd, Li Mengfei's face suddenly turned red.
Compared to others, Lin Li seems to be more like a man......
However, thinking that Lin Li and Wu Ruobing were about to stop in the top ten, Li Mengfei was in a somewhat complicated mood.
These two people are Li Mengfei's two biggest opponents, and if the two of them are really gone, the probability of winning the championship will be greatly improved.
If they were really eliminated in the show, Li Mengfei would be very happy, but before they competed, they were doomed to the result of elimination, not a crime of war, Li Mengfei was really a pity for the two of them.
She was a little envious of Lin Li, a person like Wu Ruobing who was willing to give up his future to accompany him, and also envied Wu Ruobing for having someone who could give everything to follow.
I turned my head to look at myself, as if I was more pathetic.
Back at the hotel in the evening, Tao Yufeng hid from the other contestants, and secretly came to meet Song Wenjie and Zhang Li's two mothers, with a few people from the program team.
Tao Yufeng knew that they were the only ones who could change Lin Li and Wu Ruobing's minds now.
In the past three seasons, Lin Li is still the first player who is unwilling to sign a contract, and what is even more hateful is that he also pulls Wu Ruobing, the spokesperson of the title sponsor, together.
Tao Yufeng really didn't want them to sign a contract, which led to the elimination of the next issue.
You must know that Lin Li and Wu Ruobing are two of the top three most popular players in the top ten contestants, and Lin Li's online discussion is the most discussed contestant in the past three seasons.
These two people were eliminated at this time, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a huge loss for the show.
If all the players sign a contract, Tianyun is unlikely to interfere with the progress of the game, let the market test the quality of the players, and eventually they will allocate resources according to the name of the game.
The exposure of the show is also a resource, and Tianyun naturally wants to give these resources to his artists.
Moreover, it is absolutely impossible to kill chickens and monkeys without eliminating Lin Li and Wu Ruobing.
Tao Yufeng is the chief director of this show, but once Tianyun or the director intervenes, he can only obey orders.
said how much he cherished his talents, how much he liked Lin Li, and he didn't.
It's just that he knows Lin Li's value to this show, and in the show, without Lin Li, it will be the same as missing the soul.
Although "Super Voice" is the copyright of Tianyun, for three seasons, Tao Yufeng has long regarded this show as his own child.
After a lot of words, he told Song Wenjie and Zhang Li about the matter, Tao Yufeng said a lot of the benefits of signing a contract, and also said the consequences of not signing a contract, that is, if you don't sign a contract, you will be eliminated in the next period.
Song Wenjie and Zhang Li were also very surprised, after listening to what Tao Yufeng said, they felt that there was no harm in signing a contract, but it was not good not to sign a contract.
When the two went back, they found Lin Li and Wu Ruobing to persuade them.
"Mom, auntie, don't persuade me, this contract can't be signed."
Lin Li was a little helpless when he heard that Song Wenjie and Zhang Li actually became lobbyists for the program team.
"Why can't you sign it?" Song Wenjie was puzzled.
"You haven't seen the content of the contract, it's full of overlord clauses."
"You tell us, we listened to the director of the show as if everyone signed it like this, there is no problem." Song Wenjie asked.
"To put it simply, if I sign a contract, I can't make the decisions about the songs I write in the future, they have the final say!" Lin Li said.
Song Wenjie was stunned for a moment, and immediately said, "That's not to sign!" ”
Zhang Li asked in a low voice: "What about my family Ruobing, she doesn't write songs, can't she sign it?" ”
Lin Li shook his head and said: "She can't sign either, Ruo Bing's character, if she signs a contract, there are no terms that are enough to protect her interests, and she will be squeezed to death by them after entering, the key is that you can't resist yet, if you resist, you will hide it, and it will be ruined in eight years, and you will lose tens of millions of dollars if you terminate the contract!" ”
As soon as she heard the liquidated damages, Zhang Li was also taken aback.
"That'...... So why did all the other players sign it? ”
"After signing it, you will become Tianyun's cow and horse, and you can be obedient." Lin Li said, "Think about the players in the first two sessions, except for Wen Xin's development is not bad, aren't the other players all cut a wave of leeks by them while they are still popular, and then start to ignore them?" To put it bluntly, they don't really think about the future of the players at all, and they don't have that many resources. ”
"That'...... If you don't sign it, you will be eliminated in the next period. Zhang Li asked.
Wu Ruobing said: "Eliminate it, let's eliminate it, we are not afraid." ”
"Why don't we discuss it with the program team again?" Song Wenjie was obviously a little unwilling.
"Don't." Lin Li objected, "Mom, Aunt Zhang, don't worry, if you don't participate in this show, we will rise elsewhere in the future, and now we can't put all our future days in an unequal contract like Tianyun, in that case, we really can't turn over." ”
Song Wenjie and Zhang Li seemed to have figured it out after hearing this, and nodded silently.
After more than an hour, Tao Yufeng made a phone call to inquire about the results.
Lin Li knew that it was him, so he came to pick it up in person.
"Hello?"
"Director Tao, it's me."
"Oh...... Lin Li...... That one...... How's that going to be done? ”
"Let's think about it, we won't sign it." Lin Li said firmly.
“……”
Tao Yufeng was silent for a long time, and said earnestly: "Why are you so stubborn, it's no good to be so hard." ”
"It's no good to come hard, but if you don't come hard, I'll be bad." Lin Li said.
“……”
Tao Yufeng sighed and said, "There are four days left for the next recording, you can think about it again, and I will help you intercede above." ”
Lin Li knew that although Tao Yufeng was the director of the program group, he still had no weight in speaking in front of the director and Tianyun Entertainment, and it was almost impossible for them to change.
"Director Tao, thank you for your kindness, but don't need to."
Tao Yufeng smiled bitterly and said, "You, you're really an outlier. ”
Lin Li also laughed in agreement and said, "Director Tao, I have thought about the problem of the song "Sing If You Want to Sing" you said yesterday, so I will give it to the program team, and I don't want the money." ”
Tao Yufeng was stunned for a moment and said, "Then how can it be done, the money must be given." ”
"I really don't need to, I can be regarded as thanking the program team for being so foolish and tolerant of me."
Tao Yufeng suddenly felt that under Lin Li's thorny appearance, there was a rare pure heart.
"Okay, but don't worry, we will use it as the theme song of the show, and we will not use it for other commercial purposes." Tao Yufeng said.
"Well, that'...... Good night. ”
"Good night."
As soon as he hung up the phone, Lin Li actually received a text message from Jiang Da.
"How, signed?"
Lin Li was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself Jiang Da knows this?
"You're pretty well-informed, but I didn't sign it."
"Haha, sure enough, you didn't disappoint me."
“……”
Seeing this reply, Lin Li was also a little surprised, he originally thought that Jiang Da, like everyone else, wanted to sign a contract by himself, but listening to this tone, it was obvious that he didn't want to sign a contract by himself.
It seems that they still have a consensus on this point.
