Chapter 68: New Contract, New Starting Point

There were three people who just appeared at the door of the coffee shop.

Walking at the front was a tall middle-aged man, about 40 years old, wearing a neat suit.

Following him were a woman in a white skirt and a slender man with glasses.

Zhao Deping knew this tall man and was very familiar with him.

Wu Hongming, Operation Director of [Whale TV]!

Zhao Deping and Wu Hongming are not only former colleagues, they have known each other for many years and can be considered old friends. However, the friendship in the past has long since disappeared, and now it is not an exaggeration to say that the two sides are enemies.

Seeing Wu Hongming, Zhao Deping immediately understood.

He was tricked by Lu Chen!

Lu Chen had no intention of signing a contract with Starlight Media at all. He had known that Zhao Deping was Supervisor 002!

Zhao Deping turned around suddenly and was not surprised to see a mocking smile on Lu Chen's face.

That is undisguised sarcasm!

The manager of Starlight Media's Operations Department turned purple in the face. He was holding a tight breath in his chest and couldn't let it out. His eyes were spinning and his head was a little dizzy. He tried hard not to make a fool of himself on the spot.

He is really embarrassed today!

Zhao Deping thought that he personally took action and easily dealt with a newcomer in his early 20s. He never thought that the other party was playing tricks on him to avenge the previous discord.

He flew more than 2,000 kilometers to the capital, and it was like a slap in the face!

What's outrageous is that just now Lu Chen was serious about negotiating a contract with him. His acting skills are so superb that he can join the film and television industry!

It was not just revenge, Zhao Deping soon realized.

Lu Chen was even using him, or to be more precise, using Starlight Media, as a bargaining chip to negotiate a new contract with [Whale TV]. Otherwise, why would Wu Hongming appear so coincidental?

"you!"

Zhao Deping wanted to curse loudly, but countless words were stuck in his throat, and only one word came out in the end.

Because he sadly discovered that there was nothing he could do about Lu Chen!

The current Lu Chen is not the little anchor who was allowed to be manipulated by him in [Starlight Show].

"Since Manager Zhao doesn't want to, then forget it..."

Lu Chen stood up with a smile. He took out his wallet from his pocket, took out a 50-yuan note and put it under the coffee cup. He said, "I hope there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future. Goodbye!"

Lu Chen nodded at the stunned assistant and walked away.

At this moment, Zhao Deping's heart felt like thousands of horses galloping.

He stared at Lu Chen's back. If looks could kill, then Lu Chen was already riddled with holes!

The assistant asked timidly: "Manager Zhao, what about now..."

"go back!"

Zhao Deping struggled to stand up and said feebly: "Let's go back to the deep sea immediately."

Continuing to stay here would be a disgrace to himself. He really didn't want Wu Hongming to see his embarrassed appearance.

The assistant wanted to say that the return ticket had not been booked yet, but Zhao Deping was already like this. If he poured salt into the other party's wounds, he would be waiting to be fired.

The two of them had just left the teahouse when a polite but vigilant reminder suddenly came from behind them.

"Sir, you forgot to pay the bill."

The waiter's voice was not loud, but it was very clear in the quiet cafe. Many nearby customers turned their heads and looked over after hearing it, most of them with curiosity or contempt.

Zhao Deping's old face finally lost some of its color, and was instantly repainted with a new layer of color.

He noticed that Wu Hongming was talking to Lu Chen not far away, so he looked towards him.

The manager of the transportation management department of Starlight Media almost spit out a mouthful of blood.

If he had known that this would be the result, he would not have come to the capital even if he was beaten to death. He would have been humiliated in vain. His most important task was not completed, and he would have no way to explain to Zhang Guangjie when he returned.

He could completely foresee his gloomy and desperate future in the company!

………

"Zhao Deping..."

Wu Hongming glanced at his old enemy, snorted softly, and said: "He really has a face!"

Zhao Deping was the one who told Lu Chen about [Starlight Show] supervising 002.

After the [Whale TV] executive meeting ended last night, he personally called Lu Chen to discuss the contract, and learned from Lu Chen's words that Starlight Media would also send people to the capital.

Based on his understanding of Zhao Deping, Wu Hongming revealed this not-so-secret secret to Lu Chen.

Because he knew very well that the person who came to poach Starlight Media must be the manager of the transportation management department!

The results were as expected.

At the same time, Wu Hongming also admired Lu Chen a little. The latter had obviously played a trick on Zhao Deping, and at the same time, he used people from Starlight Media to implicitly remind himself that the price of the new contract could not be lower.

In terms of business, he didn't think there was anything wrong with Lu Chen's approach, and he was prepared for it.

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Let's sit down and talk!"

[Whale TV] sent Wu Hongming and Wu Shanshan to negotiate a new contract with him. It was the first time for him to meet the former, and the latter he had often chatted with on Feixun. Of course, it was also the first time for them to meet in person.

As for the third person accompanying him, a tall and thin man with glasses, his identity is actually the editor of Yunjing Music Network!

The other party's name is Sui'an, and his ID name is Suiyuan An.

Of course Lu Chen knew about Yunjing Music Network, which was one of the top music websites in China. The appearance of this editor Sui An gave him some subtle associations.

As for the truth, we have to understand it slowly and carefully.

The four of them found a seat and sat down. After ordering coffee and tea, they quickly got to the point.

What Wu Hongming brought to Lu Chen was an electronic contract.

The advantage of an electronic contract is that it is very convenient to modify it, and it is also very simple to print it into a formal contract after it is finalized.

The sincerity of [Whale TV] is clearly demonstrated in this electronic contract.

The new contract they gave Lu Chen was 50+50+70%+30%, 500,000 signing bonus + 500,000 annual salary + 70% reward share and 30% value-added benefit share. The term of the contract is 3 years, [

Whale TV] has the right to terminate the contract in advance and give priority to renewal.

The most important thing is that [Whale TV] does not require possession of its original copyright, only reasonable authorization.

On Wu Shanshan's laptop, Lu Chen read the electronic contract carefully and found no traps or ambiguities in the terms. The rights and obligations of both parties were clear!

He was undoubtedly very satisfied in his heart, but the conditions that should be raised still had to be raised.

"Manager Wu..."

Lu Chen bluntly said to Wu Hongming: "I will make two points. The first point is that the signing bonus of 500,000 is too small. The second point is that the 3-year contract period is too long. I hope it can be changed to 2 years. There is no other point.

Opinion!"

The signing bonus of 500,000 is astonishing for a new anchor, but according to Lu Chen’s current popularity, it’s really not that much. Qing’er Baby, the first female anchor of [Whale TV], is said to have a signing bonus of up to

5 million!

Of course, due to the need for publicity, the 5 million signing bonus may be valuable, but even if it is a heavy discount, two to three million is definitely a lot. In comparison, the 500,000 signing bonus given to Lu Chen is undoubtedly

Very unsatisfactory.

Wu Hongming pondered for a moment and said, "Lu Chen, both of your conditions are negotiable, but please let me think about it. How about you talk to the editor first?"

Of course Lu Chen had no objection. He was actually very curious about the purpose of the editor of Yunjing Music Network.

Sui'an's purpose was very simple. The editor hoped that Lu Chen could organize his original works into a complete music album, and then put it on Yunjing Music Network for promotion and paid downloads!

"The pioneer of campus folk songs!"

Sui'an's eyes flashed with excitement, and he said: "I have listened to all the original works you played and sang at the PK theme show several times. Except for Flying Higher and Blue Lotus, the styles of the other songs are too

It is suitable for recording into a folk album and has a unique selling point. I believe it will sell well!"

Lu Chen was really moved.

Producing an album is the dream of countless singers. Even if it is an online album, being able to promote and sell it on a large music website platform like Yunjing Music Network is also a good thing that many people dream of.

There are many songs that Lu Chen memorized in the dream world, but the works he left for himself are all very consistent in style. In addition to using them in the PK theme show, are they not preparing for the release of an album?

It’s just that it’s not easy for a new and unknown singer to release an album. Even if he reluctantly releases an album, he will lose money and make a profit.

Maybe you can’t even make money by shouting!

Lu Chen didn't want to do anything to make someone look fat.

But now that the opportunity is presented to him, why doesn't he take advantage of it?
