[Within 5 years from the signing of this contract, Mao Mao Platform will provide an annual salary increase of 8%. At the same time, Mr. Li Xiao cannot sign agreements, contracts, labor or agreements with other live broadcast platforms. If Mr. Li Xiao unilaterally terminates within 5 years
The contract requires a 5-year non-competition clause and a compensation of 2 million. For this reason, Mao Mao Platform can use 35% of the salary as a compensation clause in the non-competition agreement.]
To put it simply, within 5 years of signing this contract, Li Xiao was equivalent to selling herself to the Mao Mao Live Broadcasting Platform.
Li Xiao cannot sign any service agreement with any company other than Mao Mao Platform. For example, if Li Xiao wants to live broadcast on Xiaoyu Platform or Puppy Platform, or even just post a video.
As long as Li Xiao appears on other live broadcast platforms or videos without the consent of Mao Mao Live, it will be illegal, and the liquidated damages to be paid will be astronomical.
The so-called non-compete agreement means that even if you terminate the contract, you will not be able to engage in any activities related to live broadcasting within five years, and you will not even be able to participate in self-media.
This point is a bit overwhelming. Although Li Xiao doesn't have to live broadcast now.
But if after leaving the Mao Mao Live Platform, you can’t even post some videos of making delicious food, this would be a bit outrageous.
Although it is said that 35% of the monthly salary is given as compensation for the non-competition agreement within the five years, the compensation of 7,000 yuan a month is simply a joke for a person like Li Xiao who earns hundreds of thousands for a casual live broadcast.
Same.
Li Xiao hesitated for a moment and wanted to laugh it off, but after all, it was 10% more for him to share, so he should contact the other party. Besides, the person who sent him the message was Mr. Xuanwu last time, and the other party was also quite polite to him.
.
Clicking on the other person's avatar, Li Xiao sent a greeting specifically for straight men.
【Hello, Mr. Xuanwu, are you there? 】
The person on the other end replied within three seconds.
[Yes, yes, hello, Mr. Li Xiao, is there anything wrong with the contract? 】
Xuanwu in the office quickly put down the cup noodles in his hand, even though it wasn't time to go to work yet.
However, he has never had the habit of taking a lunch break. The stupid bird flies first. If he works two hours more than others, he will make two hours more progress than others. He is not willing to waste this precious progress time on taking a nap.
Although Li Xiao was a little surprised when he saw the other party's immediate reply, he didn't think much about it. After all, he was also working, so it was normal for the other party to be working as well.
[Hello, I would like to ask about the contract signing period and is it necessary to add a five-year non-competition agreement? 】
Seeing Li Xiao's reply, Xuanwu showed an expression that was true, and then he smiled bitterly. Most contract problems occur at this step. After all, for anchors who can sign this contract, the previous salary and broadcast time
There won't be any big problems.
A salary of 20,000 yuan is something that even anchors of this level look down upon. After all, the number of fans of anchors who can sign this agreement has basically exceeded 3 million. Not to mention too much for a live broadcast, there must be tens of thousands, just for one advertisement.
The promotion is tens of thousands or even more, how can you expect a monthly salary of 20,000 yuan.
Someone like Li Xiao who only has 1.8 million fans can receive a contract is completely out of the ordinary. If his live broadcast data did not crush anchors with 3 million levels, there would be no chance of receiving this contract.
Although it is only a 10% share, the interests behind it are astonishingly huge. If Li Xiao had changed this contract two months in advance, the money he would have received would have been hundreds of thousands.
The length of time the anchors are on the air represents how much these anchors earn. Even if they are unwilling to go online, the team behind them will urge them to go online, and the financial backers behind them will also urge them to live broadcast more.
.
Therefore, two hours a day and a monthly salary of 20,000 yuan are just face-saving projects and are dispensable terms. Therefore, usually no anchor will raise objections because of these two issues. The most common one is the third condition, [5 years
contract and a five-year non-competition agreement].
You must know that the anchor industry can be said to be a bowl of youth rice, and it is an industry with a very short life cycle.
Not to mention 5 years, some anchors can't even last 5 months. They are like a flash in the pan. This month they are still in the top 10 of the popularity list, but the next month they are gone and the anchor can't be found at all.
This anchor seems to have disappeared from the world, and no one will remember him.
A 5-year contract plus a 5-year experience period basically ties the anchor's entire career to the Kitty Platform.
The reason for doing this is that they are afraid that after these anchors become popular on their own platform, they will move to other platforms.
Of course, what he is afraid of is not you as a person if you leave, but that when the anchor leaves, he will also take away a large number of loyal fans, which is the greatest harm to the platform.
For a platform, the number of users is the guarantee of their status. If a platform does not even have users watching, then they are not far from bankruptcy.
Of course, the reason why Mao Mao Live dares to do this is because it is the leader in the industry. It does have the confidence to ask its anchors to do this.
Most anchors will also sign this agreement after bargaining.
After all, many anchors are also worried that their live broadcast career will not last long if they become popular after a few months.
Then they can only rest on their laurels and fish every day, relying on rewards from some old fans or promotions from some small businesses. After all, they have lost their popularity. Even if they have millions of fans, no one will pay attention.
, big businesses are not willing to spend money to hire such outdated anchors, and their income will definitely be lower than before.
But as long as you sign this contract, you can get a pretty good salary every month for 5 years, which is considered very good for some anchors.
[There is a non-competition agreement at the back of every contract, because you should also know that a 10% concession here is a lot, so of course it will also require its anchors to make certain commitments. All platforms in the industry
Everyone has this requirement, not just our kitten platform.】
Xuanwu quickly explained,
[Then I would like to ask, can the time of the contract and the non-competition agreement be shortened? Because 5 years seems too long, is it possible to sign a one-year agreement? 】
One year???
Hearing Li Xiao's request, Xuanwu took a deep breath and almost bit his tongue. Other anchors kept talking about it year by year, but you just cut it down to a year.
This is not easy to deal with. The other party's requirements are a bit too high. If you only sign a one-year contract and a one-year non-compete agreement, it is almost the same as not signing it at all.
Although no one may remember this anchor after a year, one year is too short. If the anchor becomes popular on other platforms one year after his contract expires, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of his old club?
But considering Li Xiao's current popularity, popularity and potential for growth, he couldn't refuse the other party outright.
After all, the popularity of the other party is very strong now. He has topped the popularity list of the food area twice in a short period of time, and is even more famous than many popular little fresh meats.
In time, it will not be too difficult to become a popular anchor in the food section of the Cat Platform. After all, both the quality of the live broadcast and the anchor's own conditions have beaten other food anchors.
He has watched several of Li Xiao's videos, and they are indeed very good. Although he doesn't see anything particularly good, once he opens them, he becomes obsessed with them and is unwilling to turn them off casually.
This actually proves how good the quality of Li Xiao's live broadcast is. After all, as a person who often vomits while watching live broadcasts, it is simply unimaginable to be fascinated by an anchor's live broadcast.
He even went out of his way to make a comparison. Many of the star chefs who broadcast live on the Mao Mao platform were unable to achieve Li Xiao's cooking level. Of course, this was from his layman's perspective. As for the reality,
He wasn't sure what the situation was, but he didn't need to be sure, as long as the audience thought his cooking skills were very good.
He didn't want such a cash cow to only sign a one-year contract with the platform. As for the non-compete agreement to be signed for only one year, that was even more impossible.
You must know that Li Xiao has a return record of going from tens of thousands of fans to the top of the popularity list in just two months. This was achieved single-handedly without the support of big capital and guilds.
If the other party leaves Mao Mao Live, takes a year off and then goes to another platform, as long as there is help from the big guild and enough financial support, it will not be too difficult to become popular again within a few months.
What I absolutely dare not accept is that the term of the contract can be shortened slightly. After all, it has offset this terrifying development trend. I am afraid that a new sharing agreement will have to be signed every two months.
[That’s it. I’m very sorry for the inconvenience caused to Mr. Li Xiao. If Mr. Li Xiao has a strong request, I can help you apply for a one-year contract from the leaders above. 】
Li Xiao smiled when he heard that the other party could help him apply for a one-year contract, but he didn't hear the other party's follow-up and immediately frowned.
Good guy, are you playing a word game on yourself? It only talks about the contract but not the non-compete agreement behind it?
He didn't hesitate and asked directly.
[Can the non-competition agreement be changed to one year? 】
Xuanwu couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth about this question. Brother, we didn't mention it on purpose, but we just couldn't... It's very hurtful to say it so clearly.
But Li Xiao has already asked, and he has no choice but to answer directly. It is absolutely impossible to happen in one year. Even if he agrees, his superiors will never sign it.
And if I agree to the other party, I will probably lose my job.
If other anchors knew that one anchor’s non-competition agreement only lasted for one year, wouldn’t they all be in trouble?
[I'm very sorry about the issue of non-competition agreements. There has never been a non-competition agreement with such a short term on the Mao Mao Live Platform. 】
He said this very tactfully. He neither said it was impossible nor said it was impossible. He only said that there was no precedent for this before, but anyone with a discerning eye would understand what it meant. The conditions were too outrageous.
, let Li Xiao think about other conditions.
Although Li Xiao is not smart, he is also a discerning person.
He immediately understood that the other party had told him tactfully that the Mao Mao Live Platform had never had such a precedent, and he was not the one who could break the precedent.
Then Li Xiao had nothing to say, and he was unwilling to embarrass the other party's messenger.
[Then I may not be able to sign this contract, so I’ll just follow the previous share ratio.]
Although the 50/50 share ratio is a full 10% less than this new contract, and the money received must be a lot less, the previous contract regulations were indeed more free and comfortable, and the platform did not impose too many restrictions on itself.
.
He also thought clearly about how much money he would get for doing as many things as he wanted. He didn't want to bear the constraints but also wanted to get more money. That was definitely impossible.
After all, the other party needs to take certain risks when promoting themselves. It is impossible to make an anchor popular and then let him change jobs at will and make wedding dresses for others? Li Xiao will not do such a thing, let alone a large group.
Already.
In this case, choose a contract with less money but more freedom.
!!!
Seeing Li Xiao's reply, Xuanwu was so frightened that he almost jumped up on his chair. What kind of situation is this? Why did the conversation fall apart after just a disagreement???
Hey, hey, no one talks about things like you, right?
When it comes to negotiations, don't you just go back and forth to negotiate terms?
If you think 5 years is too much, I will lower it to 4 years. If you think 4 years is still too long, do you want three years? Let's slowly grind it back and forth, and then come to a time limit that everyone is satisfied with?
Why did this disagreement end immediately???
What kind of negotiation skills are you talking about? You go to a store to buy clothes, and you cut the clothes that cost 1,000 yuan directly to the bone, until the price is reduced to 100 yuan.
The boss just said, "Beautiful girl, our purchase is more than 100 yuan."
The boss wants you to add more, not that he can't sell it. Good guy, if he can't negotiate the 100 yuan, he just turns around and walks away. He doesn't even want to negotiate. What kind of magic bargain is this?
Xuanwu was frightened by Li Xiao and quickly told his bottom line. If it was really because of his work mistakes that the rookie in the food court left Mao Mao Live and went to another platform, then he would be doomed.
Already.
Xuanwu knew about Li Xiao's current contract, but there was no contract period and no so-called non-compete agreement. He said he could leave if he wanted and stay if he wanted. Mao Mao Live had no way of controlling it.
[Wait a minute, some are talking, some are talking, don't be anxious, calm down, at least we have signed a non-compete agreement for two and a half years. I know what Mr. Li Xiao thinks of two and a half years? This is a person with more than 1,000
As for the treatment of a big anchor with 10,000 fans, if you agree to a two-and-a-half-year non-competition agreement, I will immediately go to the leader to help you argue the case and strive to continue. I will stay in the supervisor’s office today to help you deal with these two years.
Let’s talk about it for a while.]
The anchor Xuanwu mentioned with more than 10 million fans actually had a relationship with Li Xiao, and that was Mao Maojiang who was still in college.
Two and a half years? Li Xiao only hesitated for a few seconds before shaking his head. Two and a half years is still too long.
[In this case, don’t bother. I will continue to share the share according to the previous contract. I will disturb you to rest. Goodbye. 】
Hearing these words, Xuanwu took a breath again. He inserted 10 fingers into his hair, and a few hairs that were originally few fell out again. Damn it, could it be that the other party was able to do this just because his thinking and logic were different from ordinary people's?
Are you going to go in alone as a dark horse?
Hey hey hey, don’t say goodbye!!!
Brother, you don’t think two and a half years is enough, why don’t you come up with a number?
Do feelings require me to keep lowering the price for myself?
[Wait a moment, Mr. Li Xiao, wait a moment, how about this, you name the number of years you want, and I will see if there is any way to fight for it with you?]
[The contract period and the non-competition agreement are both for one year. Is this okay? Actually, I have no other ideas. I just feel that the non-competition agreement is too long and it feels too unfree. 】
One year???
What the hell is a year???
Do you really want to sign once a year???
Even if the contract can be signed once a year, you still need a one-year term for the non-competition agreement?
How is this possible? If it really is a year, the leaders above may really want to kill themselves.
[Mr. Li Xiao, please stop joking. The number of one year is really too high. Not to mention the leaders above, even I can’t apply for you. 】
Xuanwu hesitated for a moment and then continued typing and asked
[Has Mr. Li Xiao already contacted other live broadcast platforms? Or does Mr. Li Xiao already have other career plans? Of course, this is purely my personal curiosity. If it is not convenient for Mr. Li Xiao, you don’t need to answer. 】
[That’s not true. The main reason is that I have relatively ample funds now. There is actually not much difference between 50% and 64% for me. After clearing it, I will feel very unfree, so I might as well
I just stopped signing it and kept the original 50/50 split]
???
No freedom? Brother, do you know how much money you can get in exchange for no freedom?
If people outside can find a way, they will cry and beg for what they want, and Mao Mao will live broadcast it to them. This kind of lack of freedom, and the share of extra steps taken is just the basic salary of 20,000 yuan per month, which makes many people
Breaking the head.
He had made a rough calculation before. If Li Xiao had signed a 64-cent share last time instead of a 50-50 share, the extra money he would have received would have been about 980,000 yuan more, close to 1 million.
Divided evenly, the monthly increase is close to 500,000.
Brother, your freedom is really valuable.
Xuanwu grabbed his hair again and accidentally pulled out a few more hairs. He was on the verge of tears, but now it was time to sign the contract, and he had to worry about his hair later. He was about to continue teaching, but found Li Xiao
