Chapter 259: Contract Terms
Ye Qingtu didn't know anything about what was happening here in Qin Mo.
She successfully arrived at the Bank of China Law Firm to find Wang Mingyu, and then told Wang Mingyu about the problems she and Qin Mo were encountering now.
Wang Mingyu's face was calm.
Obviously, he was thinking about how the problem that Ye Qingtu told him should be solved.
After a long time, Wang Mingyu said to Ye Qingtu: "According to the facts you just told me, the fault is completely on Yu Qiuze's side." The agency not only helped him arrange performances, but also helped him with public relations when he had an affair, so that he could tide over the difficulties smoothly, and tried its best to cultivate him and promote him before he became famous. It can be said that it dutifully fulfilled all the duties that a brokerage company should do.
Yu Qiuze was not grateful, and took the risk of breach of contract to take private work outside, which can be said to be quite a bad practice. It is not unusual for the agency to ask him to pay compensation accordingly. If we want to take this case, we can only start with the amount of compensation. You try to keep the payout as low as possible. In this way, it should not make Yu Qiuze feel dissatisfied. ”
Ye Qingtu sat opposite Wang Mingyu, supported his cheeks with his hands, and said very helplessly: "No, the current situation is that Yu Qiuze has reached the point of exhaustion, and he really can't get a penny, because he and his family are burdened with huge debts." Just helping him to keep the amount of compensation down is not of any help to his current situation at all, he will only continue to ask Jiang Yao for compensation. It's a ridiculous logic to say that the perpetrator is also a victim himself. ”
Wang Mingyu deeply believes this.
In his career as a lawyer, he has seen a lot of things like this.
Sometimes the defendant is not necessarily the most heinous, and sometimes the plaintiff is not necessarily the one who occupies all the truth.
In the final analysis, the law cannot handle everything clearly, and the punishment can only be relatively fair.
What these legal practitioners can do is to uphold the dignity of the law and the fairness advocated by the law as much as possible.
Although Wang Mingyu is used to seeing contract termination disputes in the entertainment industry, there will be different key points for him to discover every time.
So Wang Mingyu said to Ye Qingtu: "There is no point in us talking here, have you taken Yu Qiuze's contract?" I'll have to take a good look before I can make a final judgment. ”
Ye Qingtu had already gotten Yu Qiuze's contract from Yuan Mei before he came to Wang Mingyu.
Although the time was relatively short, fortunately, things were not delayed.
Therefore, Ye Qingtu put the contract between Yu Qiuze and his brokerage company in front of Wang Mingyu at this time.
Wang Mingyu couldn't help frowning when he looked at the nearly 100-page contract.
In general, the contract signed between each agency and the artist is different.
They plan the terms of the contract according to their own characteristics and those of the artist.
But it's really rare for a brokerage company like this to write so many terms and conditions at once.
However, Wang Mingyu still had to be patient to read page by page.
So he said to Ye Qingtu: "Qingtu, I have a book written by a well-known lawyer in our industry here, you can look through it first." Maybe you can find some inspiration in this book to solve this case. ”
Ye Qingtu knew that Wang Mingyu needed time, so she took the book given to her by Emperor Wang Mingyu very obediently and read it carefully.
In fact, this book does not explain a lot about professional knowledge, and this book is more like a biography of a well-known lawyer in the industry.
Everyone's experience in legal work is different, but their original intention is the same, that is, to uphold the fairness and justice of the law.
The book provides a detailed account of each lawyer's psychology and coping strategies when encountering setbacks.
Ye Qingtu originally thought that this book would be very boring, but after reading two pages, she couldn't extricate herself.
It turns out that every lawyer has encountered all kinds of difficulties when they first entered the workplace, and it is not just that they appear to be ignorant.
Ye Qingtu found some confidence in this book.
She found that there were many lawyers who had a lot more problems than she did now.
They may not be able to have the same good luck as Ye Qingtu, there are so many people who are willing to help her.
Those lawyers are alone.
However, with perseverance and dedication to the law, they finally survived and became a well-known gold medal in the industry.
Ye Qingtu was already completely immersed in the book, so much so that Wang Mingyu called her several times before Ye Qingtu finally reacted and raised his head from the book.
When Wang Mingyu saw Ye Qingtu's shining eyes, he knew that what he had done for Ye Qingtu had an effect.
Ye Qingtu should have drawn strength from this book.
So Wang Mingyu smiled and said to Ye Qingtu: "If you are bored in the hospital, you can take a good look at this book, and I can lend this book to you temporarily." But you must remember that I also loved this book, which is why I thought of sharing it with you. ”
Ye Qingtu is really grateful to Wang Mingyu for sparing no effort to help her, but she knows that she will never have any story with Wang Mingyu in her life.
So she struggled with whether to say something thankful like a normal trainee lawyer would do with her mentor.
Wang Mingyu saw Ye Qingtu's entanglement, so he said to her: "There is no need to be polite between us, I will point out the problems in the contract to you now." At the same time, I also need to understand in more detail the major events and daily details of Yu Qiuze and his agency in the process of cooperation. None of the contradictions erupted suddenly, but must have accumulated over time. So why did the relationship between Yu Qiuze and the brokerage suddenly become so strained? I don't think it's just Yu Qiuze who took the lead in violating the spirit of the contract. You can first look at the part of the contract that I have drawn out is completely an overlord clause. ”
After Ye Qingtu listened to Wang Mingyu's words, he looked at the terms drawn by Wang Mingyu very obediently.
She realized that she had just looked at the contract in vain, and she didn't even notice that there were so many problems in it.
Many of the terms in this contract are quite harsh, not only not only does not allow Yu Qiuze to be in the same frame as the opposite sex, but also requires Yu Qiuze to report his private itinerary to the brokerage company completely.
Ye Qingtu didn't continue to look down, this alone was already unacceptable.
Isn't this a violation of Yu Qiuze's right to privacy?
And from a moral point of view, the brokerage company is also completely binding on Yu Qiuze's person.
Although the agency usually operates the artist as a product, Yu Qiuze's agency has gone too far, and at the same time, it is too unscrupulous.
Wang Mingyu has been paying attention to the changes in the expression on Ye Qingtu's face.
Just when Ye Qingtu wanted to complain to Wang Mingyu about the domineering behavior of Yu Qiuze's brokerage company, Wang Mingyu smiled and said to Ye Qingtu: "I know what you want to say, but have you ever considered such a harsh contract, why did Yu Qiuze have to sign it?" If he clearly has a reason to refuse, he can also ask the brokerage company to modify the terms of the contract. ”
