"If Ni Yirong's team still refuses to accept mediation in the end and needs to go to court, then he should appear in court."
"However, you don't need to worry. Even if you need to appear in court, you will only be a witness and will not hold you accountable." Ning Xin turned to Wu Di and explained very professionally.
Wu Di was not worried about this.
The prosperous life in his previous life allowed him to dabble in a lot of social knowledge, especially legal knowledge.
Changing roles was not his decision, it was the decision of the crew. To be more precise, it was arranged by director Zhang Feng. What responsibility does he, Wu Di, have?
"Now let's analyze the facts of this case."
Zhang Feng asked: "Lawyer Ning, if we reconcile, what are the chances of winning?" This is the question she is most concerned about.
Ning Xin replied without thinking: "It should be said that the crew should not need to pay compensation in the later stage, but it will be a bit difficult to get back all the 500,000 that has been given to Ni Yifeng in advance."
"Generally speaking, the chances of winning are very good."
Ning Xin was very confident, and Director Lei thumped.
"No!"
"The odds of winning are actually very high?"
What is this expression?
Could it be that this lady doesn’t even believe in herself?
Ning Xin nodded: "Of course!"
"A contract of intent is not the same as a formal contract. Didn't you notice this when you signed the contract?"
"The so-called letter of intent to cooperate is an intention to cooperate. From a legal perspective, both the crew and Ni Yifeng can terminate the contract at any time."
"There is no need to fulfill the responsibility for compensation."
Ning Xin put the contract in front of several people and analyzed the terms of the contract one by one. It was only then that Wu Di saw the contract signed by the crew and Ni Yifeng for the first time.
It turns out...
That’s it?
Fortunately, he had been worried for a long time before.
I thought that the crew would have to bear huge compensation, which might also affect his remuneration.
When I look at it today, I think I am overthinking it.
"It seems that even if we go to court, we are sure to win?" Zhang Feng was very happy, and Ning Xin said: "That's what I say, but it is also a contract after all. If both parties can sit down and have a serious talk,
, the other party voluntarily terminates the contract, and we have no losses. This is the best result."
"Since it is just a letter of intent to cooperate, why do we need to terminate the contract?"
"Is it possible that the crew may still suffer losses?"
Before anyone else could react, Lao Lei jumped up first.
As a result, it naturally attracted the attention of the crew.
Zhang Feng and Lao Li had complicated expressions in their eyes, but Lao Lei didn't notice.
He only cares about money.
Ning Xin heard that Lao Lei was the assistant director of this play, but she didn't show any abnormality.
It is normal for the assistant director to be concerned about the specific circumstances of the case.
"Indeed." She replied to everyone: "Because this involves the principle of fairness, the current situation is that Ni Yifeng took away 500,000 yuan in salary. This share must be more than the salary he deserved during the filming period." p>
"On the other hand, the crew did take the lead in announcing the change of roles without notifying Mr. Ni, which effectively terminated the contract. This is definitely a loss for Mr. Ni. If our case goes to court, then the cross-examination will be
The focus should be on whether the remuneration Ni received in advance or the loss he suffered from the termination of the contract was greater."
"On this point, the court will have specific discretionary standards, but I can't tell yet."
"So, my suggestion is that although the advantage of the crew is greater, I still recommend reconciliation. Once it goes to court, it will expand the impact, especially the negative impact, and it will not be good for our entire movie."
"Furthermore, I have made some rough statistics and reviewed some past cases. The number of such compensation cases based on the principle of fairness will not be too large."
"But, you still have to lose money after all."
"Since there is no breach of contract involved, why do we still have to lose money? You know, we will probably not get back the 500,000 we have already given."
It’s hard to say anything else.
We won’t get this money back, but you still want us to spend it?
Is there any heavenly principle?
Do you have a conscience?
Ning Xin comforted her and said, "Director, don't worry, I'm just telling you the worst case scenario to give everyone a shot."
"In fact, the situation is quite favorable for us."
So that’s it, I told you earlier!
Zhang Feng is relieved.
Wu Di was relieved and opened the lid.
The aroma of rice wafted out in a flash.
"What's wrong with you?"
"You haven't eaten yet?"
Wu Di broke his chopsticks, looking very pitiful.
"Yeah!"
"I just grabbed a box lunch and was called over by Producer Li. I didn't have time to eat at all."
Who cares how many people are in the conference room?
There are seats and tables here, so it’s a good place to eat. If you don’t eat now, when will you stay?
I have to film a scene with my real brother in the afternoon!
You have to replenish your physical strength.
Who knows if he will use another dirty trick?
Scheme against Little Didi?
Little Didi... so pitiful~~
…………
"It's settled, it's settled!"
"How's it going over there?"
"Have you hired a lawyer? The crew's lawyer has arrived today."
Director Lei is still a very trustworthy person. Since he said he would cooperate, he is very responsible. He just received the news, and he got into the bathroom and reported to Lao Lin.
Can't he wait a little longer?
Does he especially like the smell in the bathroom?
I can’t wait to get in.
"Of course."
"Has the date for our next meeting been set?"
"Ni Yirong also agrees to the reconciliation."
"However, the conditions cannot be lowered."
Why don’t you give in?
He really wants to pull himself up, but who gives him such a face?
"The date has been set. It's next Tuesday. There are still three days left. You guys should prepare quickly. I think this lawyer is quite powerful."
Lao Li also revealed all the information about Ning Xin to Lao Lin, and Lao Lin wrote it down one by one, planning to take it back and formulate a response strategy with his lawyer.
"Is there anything else you can reveal?" Lao Lin said.
"Lawyer Ning read the contract and she said that the written thing signed by both parties is just a letter of intent to cooperate and cannot be regarded as a real contract."
"As long as you want to go back on your word, you or the crew can do so at any time."
"What?"
"You are shirking responsibility!" Lao Lin immediately became angry.
"Why should I shirk responsibility? The two of us are on the same rope now, okay?"
"You go back and read the contract carefully, and find a lawyer to study it again to determine the specific strategy. However, no matter what, the date of the meeting will not change."
"Okay, I'm going to film. Let's stop here." After saying that, Director Lei hung up the phone without waiting for Lao Lin's answer.
On the other end of the phone, Lao Lin finally realized that Director Lei had left. He was so angry that he walked to the trash can and kicked him several times.
Letter of intent for cooperation?
Not a contract?
How could such a thing happen?
No!
We have to notify Ni Yibeng immediately to discuss countermeasures.
