Wang Gang didn't expect that Lan Weiwei's boyfriend Zhuang Yan was causing trouble.
He and Zhuang Yan probably have nothing to do with each other, right?
"Are you the owner of the gym?" When Zhuang Yan saw Wang Gang, he straightened his back and said arrogantly:
"I order you to give me all the photos of Lan Weiwei!"
Wang Gang ignored the unreasonable solemnity and instead said to the people around him: "Everyone, please leave! There is no excitement to see."
"Mr. Zhuang, if we have something to talk about, let's go to the office!"
"There is nothing to talk about. Lan Weiwei's photos must be taken off the shelves today, otherwise you will talk to my lawyer." Seeing Wang Gang's politeness, Zhuang Yan became even more arrogant.
Wang Gang laughed and slapped Zhuang Zheng on the shoulder.
"Mr. Zhuang, if you have any demands, we can sit down and talk slowly. But if you want to continue making trouble and affect my normal business, that's another matter."
Wang Gang didn't need to remind him, the male coaches from the gym slowly surrounded him, trapping Zhuang Yan in the middle.
Looking at the tall and thick fitness instructors around him, whose arms were thicker than his thighs, Zhuang Yan could not help but swallow nervously.
Only then did he remember who were the people who ran the gym. Zhuang Yan wanted to leave now, but the hand Wang Gang put on his shoulder was like an iron clamp, preventing him from moving.
Zhuang Yan now regrets that he shouldn't have been so impulsive and rushed in as soon as he saw Lan Weiwei's photo.
"Mr. Feng, Mr. Feng, it's all a misunderstanding."
Lan Weiwei's voice came from outside. She forced her way into the crowd. When she saw Wang Gang holding Zheng Zheng, she thought they had a physical conflict.
Wang Gang saw Lan Weiwei. After thinking about it, he let go of Zhuang Yan and said, "Since all the parties involved are here, let's go to the office to talk!"
Zhuang Yan didn't want to agree at first, but when he saw Wang Gang's cold eyes, his legs couldn't help but weaken.
Wang Gang took Lan Weiwei and Zhuang Yan to the office. The people around him slowly dispersed without any excitement.
Those coaches wanted to come and help stand up, but Wang Gang refused and asked them to go back to normal work.
The three of them came to the office. Wang Gang closed the door and said, "Coach Lan, what's going on?"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Feng." Lan Weiwei felt aggrieved and wanted to cry.
"What are you apologizing for?" Zhuang Yan said angrily: "He used your photos without your permission, which is infringement of your portrait rights. We can sue him."
Maybe he came back to his senses, maybe he felt that he had lost face in front of Wang Gang, so Zhuang Yan straightened his back and felt that he could do it again.
Wang Gang took out the disclaimer signed by Lan Weiwei directly from the drawer and threw it to Zhuang Yan.
"When we took the promotional photos, we had already communicated and signed a disclaimer. No one's portrait rights were infringed upon. Besides, if there is a photo showing your face in the photos we took, I won't be afraid even if you ask a lawyer to sue me."
Zhuang Yan read the disclaimer, then angrily tore it into pieces, shouting: "This is what you signed to trick Lan Weiwei into signing, and it has no legal effect."
Wang Gang pointed to the camera in the office and said: "What you tore up was just a copy. I can have as many as I want. Besides, I have saved the video of the original signature. Do you want to see it?"
Zhuang Yan said angrily: "You have been planning this for a long time."
Wang Gang said solemnly: "What can I do for Lan Weiwei? I asked her to be a model for publicity photos because I admire her and give her a chance. Don't be shameless."
Lan Weiwei was a little ashamed, but she also knew in her heart that Wang Gang was right. There were many models to choose from, so there was no need to choose her.
"Zhuang Yan, let's stop making trouble." Lan Weiwei said timidly.
"Go away." Zhuang Yan said angrily: "I didn't agree with you taking such photos at the beginning, now you've fallen into the trap!"
Wang Gang snorted coldly: "Mr. Zhuang, as far as I know, you and Coach Lan are not married yet. Even if you are married, you have no right to interfere with her work!"
Lan Weiwei said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Feng, this matter today is all a misunderstanding. It's all my fault that I didn't communicate well with my boyfriend, which led to this situation."
Zhuang Yan said to Wang Gang: "How much do you want to take down those photos?"
Wang Gang said strangely: "I'm very curious, why did you take down the photos? Those photos didn't show the face, and few people know it's Coach Lan?"
"Others don't know that I know. When I think of those men pointing fingers at Lan Weiwei's figure, I can't stand it!" Zhuang Yan said angrily:
"Make a price! I want to buy all the rights to the photos!"
Wang Gang smiled and said: "In that case, then five million!"
Zhuang Yan's expression froze, he slapped the table and shouted, "Are you crazy about money? This lousy photo is worth five million!?"
Lan Weiwei's expression became a little gloomy as soon as he heard Zhuang Yan talking about breaking the photo.
"These photos may be worthless to you, but to some people they are priceless." Wang Gang sneered: "Besides, I didn't quote the price of five million randomly!"
"Hmph! I would like to know how this price came about!"
Wang Gang said with a smile: "I have signed a contract with an advertising company. These photos of Coach Lan will soon be hung on major bus stops in the capital. If they are taken down at this time, I will need to pay liquidated damages. Five million is still on my mind.
The price of friendship for a colleague.”
Lan Weiwei was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Wang Gang would engage in such a large publicity effort, and he didn't expect that his photos would appear on the streets of the capital.
In fact, if Wang Gang didn't want to make the gym bigger, he wouldn't have spent any effort on publicity.
He didn't lie. The five million promotional fee was really a friendly price.
Of course, there was one thing he didn't mention. It would cost less than 5 million to temporarily change the promotional photos and find a model to take a group photo, maybe not even 50,000.
"So, Mr. Zhuang, do you want to spend five million to buy your girlfriend's photo?" Wang Gang said to Zhuang Yan mockingly.
Zhuang Yan's body trembled with anger, but there was nothing Wang Gang could do.
Wang Gang's work was really too tight.
"You resign immediately." Zhuang Yan could only take out his temper on Lan Weiwei.
"Zhuang Yan, please calm down." Lan Weiwei grabbed her boyfriend's arm and begged, "I'm very happy here!"
Wang Gang sneered: "I need to remind you that according to the contract, if Coach Lan wants to resign, she must submit a resignation letter one month in advance. And even if she resigns, according to the disclaimer, I have the right to continue to use her photo."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Lan Weiwei also knows that the future of this job is not bright. Wang Gang has spent millions on publicity, but she is the only one who has actually gained.
If you resign, everything will be lost.
"Zhuang Yan, if anything happens, let's go back and talk!" Lan Weiwei begged her boyfriend.
Zhuang Yan heard this and said angrily: "Lan Weiwei, I'll give you two choices, either resign or we break up!"
Lan Weiwei was struck by lightning and didn't know what to choose.
Wang Gang had no intention of interfering at all. He also wanted to see Lan Weiwei's choice.
Do you want a career or a man?
Zhuang Yan saw Lan Weiwei struggling for a long time, and his heart became even more angry. In the past, Lan Weiwei would have chosen him without hesitation.
"Hmph, come back to me when you think about it." Zhuang Yan wanted to leave, but Lan Weiwei subconsciously held his arm.
"Zhuang Yan, don't leave, don't leave me." Lan Weiwei said pitifully.
"Then you resign." Zhuang Yan forced him.
Lan Weiwei's face turned into a bitter expression, but in the end he apologized and said to Wang Gang: "Mr. Feng, I can't lose my boyfriend."
Wang Gang raised his eyebrows and said: "Since Coach Lan has made his choice, I will not force it, but according to the contract we signed, you must work for another month until I find a replacement coach for you."
Zhuang Yan proudly said: "Isn't it just one month's salary? I will replenish it for you, and Lan Weiwei will leave immediately."
When Lan Weiwei heard this, the bitterness on his face became even stronger!
Wang Gang took in the expressions of Lan Weiwei and Zhuang Yan and sneered: "If Mr. Zhuang wants compensation, according to the agreement, one month's salary is far from enough."
Zhuang Yan frowned and said: "One month is not enough, I will make up for you for three months. Isn't it just the salary of a fitness instructor? How much money can you make!"
The solemn and disdainful tone deeply hurt Lan Weiwei.
"According to the contract, you need to compensate me for liquidated damages of 300,000 yuan."
Zhuang Yan was furious and shouted: "Is this a black shop? Three hundred thousand, why don't you go and rob it!?"
Wang Gang sneered: "Coach Lan signed the contract in black and white. According to the contract, if you want to leave immediately, you will have to pay me 300,000 yuan in liquidated damages, or you will have to work for another month."
Zhuang Yan's teeth were chattering with anger. He had no choice but to take out his anger on Lan Weiwei again.
"Humph, it depends on what kind of job you are looking for!"
Zhuang Yan threw up his sleeves and left, Lan Weiwei quickly caught up to explain.
Wang Gang shook his head and did not stop Zhuang Yan from leaving.
It's easy to leave, but if Zhuang Yan thinks that things will just go away, then he thinks too simply.
Wang Gang has always been a person who doesn't offend anyone unless they offend me. If someone offends me, I will repay him tenfold.
Zhuang Yan went to his gym to cause trouble today, which is just a slap in his face. The debt must be repaid!
