Chapter 55: Unfair Contracts
The scandal about Xia Zhihuai on the Internet also completely disappeared from public view after Chen Jiashi apologized.
Although some people still suspect that Xia Zhihuai may have reached an agreement with Chen Jiashi's side in private, after the public security department clarified the facts, this voice became quieter and quieter, and Xia Zhihuai's true love fans completely brushed down every one of his unbearable remarks on Weibo.
The tree species selected at the flower and bird market were delivered to Xia Zhihuai's door on Friday morning.
After seeing the two trees that had been moved into the garden balcony, Wanwan happily kept running around the balcony.
After the peach trees and orange trees were completely planted, Xia Zhihuai looked at Wanwan who was holding the trunk: "Are you satisfied now?" ”
"Uh-huh." Wanwan immediately nodded excitedly.
Although she can't see her own body peach tree from time to time, she is very satisfied to be able to find her own kind.
Xia Zhihuai has been very busy recently, and he has recently considered whether to send Wanwan to kindergarten.
Let Zhang Chichi take Wanwan with him every day, although it is okay, but Zhang Chichi is his assistant after all, not Wanwan's nanny.
After asking Wanwan what she thought, Wanwan said that she didn't want to go to school yet.
Xia Zhihuai considered that her custody has not yet been contested, and the issue of going to school can be put on hold for the time being, but Zhang Chichi's salary must be increased.
In the afternoon, Wanwan asked Zhang Chichi to move a chair to the balcony.
The little one took off her shoes, climbed into a chair and lay down comfortably, covering her face with a wet tissue so that everyone would not disturb her in the sun.
Xia Zhihuai knocked twice on the door of her head, turned around and left the balcony.
As soon as I walked back to the living room, the doorbell rang.
opened the downstairs access control, and Song Ti soon appeared at the door of the house with the computer and documents.
Song Ti was in good spirits, and said with a smile: "I came to check with you again, about the termination of the contract with Xingchen, I think you have to be prepared in your heart." ”
"Come in and sit down."
Xia Zhihuai got out of the way and poured a cup of tea for Song Ti.
After Song Ti came in, he only glanced at the large flat floor of three hundred square meters, and quickly retracted his attention: "I have carefully read the contract you signed with Xingchen, and it is a big problem. ”
It's not just a matter of losing money.
There are even restrictions on employment in the future.
After the request to terminate the contract with the company, you can no longer engage in the relevant industry for two years.
This kind of non-compete agreement is more common in shopping malls, but for star actors, it is tantamount to forcing the other party to cut off their own future.
If Xia Zhihuai terminates the contract now, he must completely quit the showbiz for two years.
Although he is very young, the entertainment industry changes too quickly, and powerful newcomers have sprung up, and after two years of silence, he will not even be able to fry cold rice.
"How did you sign such a contract at the time?" Song Ti was a little puzzled.
Xia Zhihuai was stunned for a few seconds, and then took the contract handed over by Song Ti, his face was terrifying.
"I wasn't told this when I signed the contract."
When he signed the contract, he really didn't read it word by word from beginning to end.
Song Ti flipped through the copy of the contract and sighed deeply: "Do you have evidence to prove that when you signed the contract, the other party did not clearly inform you of the relevant contract content?" ”
This Xia Zhihuai really didn't have it, and he couldn't even remember what the situation was at that time.
Before he signed Xingchen, he was a vegan.
At that time, he was young and reckless, and when he signed the contract, he was bent on becoming popular in the future.
On the issue of contracts......
Everyone signed the same, so he naturally didn't notice that such a big hole was dug in the contract.
"Now that the contract is being terminated, the situation is very unoptimistic." Song Ti said directly, "If you terminate the contract with Xingchen at this moment, you have to come up with 48 million liquidated damages, and at the same time, there are restrictions on the non-compete agreement, and you will not be allowed to engage in related work for two years." ”
Xia Zhihuai's brows furrowed: "Why is the liquidated damages so high?" ”
"As written in the contract, Party B takes the initiative to terminate the contract, and must pay three times the liquidated damages."
Xia Zhihuai raised his hand and pressed the corner of his forehead, only feeling a headache: "Is there a solution?" ”
"There must be a solution, if you are sure that you have signed the same contract with the same batch of trainees as you, then what you have to do now is not to terminate the contract for the time being, contact those trainees privately, fix the evidence related to the contract first, and then let them testify in court to prove that Xingchen Company has obvious fraud when signing the contract with you, so that you can take the initiative to terminate the contract without following such strict contract regulations."
Song Ti said sincerely: "This should be the best way so far." ”
Xia Zhihuai pondered for a long time: "If you don't terminate the contract for the time being, look for evidence first, how long will it take." ”
"It's hard to say."
Song Ti frowned, and analyzed several situations with him in a clear manner.
The first is that those trainees chose to withdraw directly from the circle after leaving the stars, and they may not have paid attention to whether there was a problem with the contract from beginning to end.
In this case, if you want to fix the evidence and let the other party testify in court, it is basically no fun.
Second, the trainees knew about these harsh regulations before signing them, but they still signed them, and they withdrew directly from the circle after the contract was terminated.
Then they found each other, and it didn't have any effect, it could only prove that only Xia Zhihuai was deceived.
Third, the situation of trainees is the same as Xia Zhihuai.
That's what they're looking for, and they're asking to testify in court.
But if the other party disagrees, that's another matter.
If Xingchen knew their movements in advance, maybe he would have communicated with these people in advance, not afraid that they would refuse to appear in court, and most afraid of temporarily changing their words in court, that would be the real failure.
……
After clarifying all the possible situations to Xia Zhihuai, Song Ti looked at him with a few wisps of sympathy in his eyes.
"You think about it, if you decide to drag it out to find evidence...... The time may not be short, from the investigation and evidence collection to the trial stage, it will take several months at least, and it may drag on for a year and a half if it is long. ”
Xia Zhihuai is in a heavy mood, if he really comes to this point, there is basically no difference between directly terminating the contract and quitting the circle for two years.
"I'm sorry for you, I'll think about this matter seriously."
Xia Zhihuai got up and sent Song Ti out of the door, leaning on the sofa decadently, with a sad face.
Wanwan walked in from the balcony with her hands in her hands, looked at him with a salted fish decadent appearance, jumped on the sofa and patted him on the cheek.
"Brother, why do you keep sighing?"
Xia Zhihuai was weak: "I'm going to be finished." ”
Wanwan blinked: "Why?" ”
"Someone cheated on someone."
Xia Zhihuai was a little angry, but he was even more angry that he had no brains.
"What if my brother can't film, can't find a job, and can't support you?"
Xia Zhihuai poked her soft arm.
Wanwan thought it was a big deal, and suddenly patted her chest and said, "Then I'll raise you." ”
"Wanwan is a little peach fairy, she can grow the most delicious peaches in the world, and we will sell peaches when the time comes."
Xia Zhihuai burst out laughing, holding his stomach and being happy.
"You can't even support yourself, and you still grow peaches to feed me?"
Wanwan patted his dog's head and said righteously: "Don't underestimate me." ”
She is a very popular little fairy in the fairy world, and the queen mother's peach forest has been productive every year since she took care of it!
