Chapter 101 Signing the contract(1/2)

That night Yang Jingxing did not continue to work on the staff, but called home to talk about signing a contract with Hongxing Company.

Xiao Shuxia didn't understand it at first and objected repeatedly, saying that she should just study hard and not do any work-study program. Yang Jingxing told his father again. After Yang Chengyi asked for a long time, he understood Yang Jingxing's intention and asked: "This Fu Feirong

Who is he again? Has your mother seen him?"

Yang Jingxing said no, and then described Fu Feirong's situation. Yang Chengyi finally decided: "Don't worry, we will go there tomorrow."

At noon on Tuesday, his parents arrived by car. Yang Chengyi was shocked after seeing the contract sample. He had signed countless contracts in his life, but this was the first time that the rights and obligations of Party A and Party B were so unequal. Xiao Shuxia even started to curse.

, saying that this is simply the stuff of feudal society.

Yang Jingxing comforted his parents: "It seems a bit excessive, but it's actually okay. If I join the job, I can do whatever the boss tells me to do, and I can only get a dead salary."

Yang Chengyi is an understanding person: "You are doing creative work and you don't rely on him!"

Yang Jingxing said: "But it's up to them to turn the fruits of their labor into profits. I write songs and sell them, and one song costs tens of thousands..."

Xiao Shuxia scolded: "Who wants you to make money? You said 300,000, but my family gave me 500,000, what else do you want?"

Yang Chengyi said: "This is not a question of money." He asked Yang Jingxing: "What do you think?"

Yang Jingxing said that his idea was to have a deep understanding of this industry. Just like his father building a house, what steps did the entire project go through from beginning to end, and what knowledge was involved.

Yang Chengyi gradually understood that his son's ideal was not only to be an architect, but also to be a person who took charge of the overall situation. No matter how well-designed the house was, it would be in vain if it could not be repaired in the end.

But Yang Chengyi is not very supportive of his son: "Your main task now is to study hard. It's too early to think about this. Things in society are very complicated, and you can't deal with them just by being smart."

Yang Jingxing said: "It is better to start learning early than to know late."

So in the afternoon, his parents accompanied Yang Jingxing to Hongxing Company. Zhang Yanhao didn't let them wait and immediately received him. He didn't laugh at Yang Jingxing for asking his parents to accompany him at such an old age.

Poor parents in the world, Yang Chengyi discussed some issues in the contract with Zhang Yanhao from a legal perspective, while Xiao Shuxia discussed some issues in the contract from a human perspective. So Xiao Shuxia didn't seem to be here to negotiate at all, but a loving mother.

They often ask questions that make Zhang Yanhao and Gan Kaicheng laugh and cry and have to answer them.

Xiao Shuxia also boasted: "My son has grown up to 18 years old, and we have never left him short of money. We will give him whatever he wants... Let me just say that this contract of yours is really heart-wrenching! You all have children, right?"

"

Zhang Yanhao still looked pleasant: "Mrs. Yang, my son has graduated from college and is working in our company with a salary of several thousand yuan a month. If he had Yang Jingxing's talent, I would also sign such a contract for him, and the conditions would definitely not be as good as Yang Jingxing's.

Okay. Mr. Yang is a businessman himself, so he must understand this truth. Business is business. I am also a broker myself, and the contract is signed in this way. If you don’t believe me, I will show it to you."

Xiao Shuxia said: "It doesn't matter to you, the company is yours!"

Yang Chengyi stopped his wife and said: "Chairman, in business we are separated by mountains, but as parents, I think our moods are the same. If your company thinks highly of my son, I am very grateful, but I will definitely not accept such a contract."

They will ask him to sign. He is too young and has not yet entered the society. He does not understand many things..."

Gan Kaicheng said: "Mr. Yang, this contract is just a sample. Yang Jingxing is different from ordinary managers. We will definitely have to discuss this in detail. He also said that he does not want to be a manager, but he must be responsible for the singers. We must

Find a balance here."

Yang Chengyi said: "That's right. Let me give you an inappropriate example. The average agent is a small contractor. He takes part of the project from me, such as exterior wall tiles. The materials and construction site are mine, so of course they can only

Get some wages. I asked Yang Jingxing, he just wants to write his own songs for that singer to sing, and you provide a good platform... It's like someone else has a project, and he comes to borrow my engineering team, I can't ask him

Give me the project, and I'll pay him for the work!"

Zhang Yanhao laughed: "Although Mr. Yang's example is not very appropriate, I understand the meaning. Frankly speaking, we appreciate Yang Jingxing's talent and admire his responsible attitude towards artists, so we are willing to talk to him, even if there are talents in this industry

There are many people. But the training and promotion of an artist is not simpler than a real estate project. In your industry, if you have a project, you will definitely make money. We are different. There are too many uncertainties. If we are ten people, it will only matter if one of us is popular.

It's just good luck, and the other nine are all losses. To put it bluntly, which one should be used to fill the loopholes of these nine. If every newcomer's contract is like signing a contract with a famous brand, then no company will dare to sign a newcomer.

There is no need to develop this industry!”

Yang Chengyi said: "I also understand what the chairman means. The company just wants to create profits. Fortunately, our requirements are not in terms of money..."

Zhang Yanhao asked: "Mr. Yang, please tell me what aspects of the contract you are dissatisfied with."

So the negotiations began. Yang Chengyi had a series of dissatisfaction, mainly regarding the clauses in the contract that were suspected of restricting Yang Jingxing's freedom of life. For example, all commercial or non-commercial activities that Yang Jingxing led people to participate in required the company's consent, and the company wanted Yang Jingxing's people to go

Yang Jingxing cannot refuse any commercial or non-commercial activities he participates in.

After a series of talks, Zhang Yanhao felt that Yang Chengyi was more knowledgeable, so he called in people from the company's legal department. Zhang Yanhao made concessions in many places, but also added many new clauses, focusing on Yang Jingxing's works, emphasizing

During the contract period, the copyright of all his works must be sold to Hongxing Company first. Even if he sings for Fu Feirong, the copyright still belongs to Hongxing Company.

Then there is the matter of Yang Jingxing's artist, Fu Feirong, who will be entrusted to Hongxing Company for training. Yang Jingxing will be responsible for the training expenses, and Hongxing Company will pay for them in advance. Of course, he will pay back Fu Feirong after he makes money.

Regarding the training fee, Zhang Yanhao said that it is usually around one million, and there is even a detailed form. Yang Chengyi originally did not want his son to be in debt, but Yang Jingxing insisted on working hard to repay it.

After a few hours, the contract was almost drafted. In general, Yang Jingxing helped himself and Fu Feirong gain a lot of free space, but on the surface, the benefits that could be shared were also much less.

Under the worried and expectant gaze of his parents, Yang Jingxing signed the final printed formal contract with the pen given to him by Tao Meng.

After signing, Zhang Yanhao shook hands with Yang Jingxing: "I hope we can have a happy cooperation."

Yang Jingxing still knew his status: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang, for taking care of me."

Then, Zhang Yanhao gave Yang Jingxing a sample contract between the manager and the artist, so that this newbie would know how to sign a contract with Fu Feirong.

Yang Chengyi invited Zhang Yanhao to have dinner with him. Zhang Yanhao appreciated it, and of course Gan Kaicheng also came with him. At this time, Xiao Shuxia became active again and asked: "Does Duan Liying come to the company normally?"

Zhang Yanhao said: "I'll make a call to see if she is free... She likes Yang Jingxing." He called Duan Liying in person: "Hey... I just signed a contract with Xiao Yang, and his parents came and asked us to have a meal together.

…Hey, okay, let’s find a place first and bring it here!”

Zhang Yanhao hung up the phone and said to Xiao Shuxia: "I just picked up my son from school. Let's find a place for her to come over."

Xiao Shuxia was excited: "I have listened to her singing for more than ten years, but I have never seen her in person."

Yang Chengyi asked his son: "Will you call your singer over?"

Yang Jingxing said: "Forget it."

Zhang Yanhao asked: "You haven't met Fu Feirong yet?"

Xiao Shuxia was worried again: "I just haven't seen him before, so I don't know what he is like."

Zhang Yanhao said: "There should be no problem with him. He looks honest and has a good voice."

After arriving at a good place to eat, Yang Jingxing waited for Duan Liying outside, and Yang Chengyi and the others went in first. After waiting for a quarter of an hour, Duan Liying came, driving an elegant black SUV, wrapped in a scarf and sunglasses. Her son was only four or five years old.

The fat one is wrapped up in a down jacket and jumping up and down, which is quite cute.

Yang Jingxing greeted him: "Sister Duan, hello, little friend, what's your name?"

The younger son looked at Yang Jingxing and said, "Hello, uncle, my name is Hu Di."

Duan Liying smiled: "This is Yang Jingxing's brother, not his uncle."

Yang Jingxing smiled: "It's uncle. Transformers, can you lend me the Transformers to play with?"

"No!" Woody put it away.

Duan Liying said to Yang Jingxing: "We have signed the contract, and we will be a family from now on."

Yang Jingxing said: "Sister Duan, please take more care of me."

Duan Liying said: "Go in, when did your parents come?"

After going upstairs, Yang Jingxing opened the door of the private room and let Duan Liying go in first. Xiao Shuxia took a closer look before standing up and surprised: "Duan Liying! This is a rare guest! Sit down quickly!"

Duan Liying also wears makeup, but compared with Xiao Shuxia, she still looks older, her face is not that good-looking, and her figure is about the same.

Duan Liying and Yang Chengyi said hello, and Yang Jingxing carried her son to the seat. Xiao Shuxia praised: "You are so young, and my little son is so cute."

Duan Liying chuckled: "You are old, Mrs. Yang is really young."

Xiao Shuxia shook her head: "My son was only that old when I heard you sing before, but it happened in the blink of an eye."

Duan Liying smiled: "In a blink of an eye, I was singing songs written by your son. You are so lucky."

Xiao Shuxia modestly said: "No matter how lucky I am, you all take care of me."

After the dishes were served, we started to eat. Yang Chengyi toasted and thanked everyone first, and Zhang Yanhao once again welcomed Yang Jingxing to Hongxing Company. Then Yang Chengyi taught Yang Jingxing that signing a contract means responsibility, and a man must have a sense of responsibility. Yang Jingxing also toasted one by one, and various

Thanks.

Gan Kaicheng didn't seem to like drinking very much, and would talk professional things to Yang Jingxing from time to time. Duan Liying was also more concerned about Yang Jingxing's business plans and said she would like to see Fu Feirong if she had the opportunity.

After eating, Xiao Shuxia used her mobile phone to ask her son to take a photo of her and Duan Liying, so she could show off again when she went back.

After returning home in the evening, his parents started talking to Yang Jingxing at length, about various principles and skills in doing things. Xiao Shuxia wanted to give Yang Jingxing financial support, but Yang Jingxing didn't want it. Yang Chengyi said with a smile: "Don't be too arrogant, it happens to everyone.

There is no shame in talking to your father about the difficulty."

Yang Jingxing said: "You are allowed to start from scratch, but I can't?"

Xiao Shuxia quickly said that Yang Chengyi did not start from scratch: "...your grandfather gave him 40,000 yuan, which is equivalent to 400,000 yuan now, more than that!"

After lunch the next day, Yang Chengyi and his wife still wanted to meet Fu Feirong. Last night when they looked at the manager's and artist's contract, they didn't say anything excessive. In fact, the terms there were similar to those between Yang Jingxing and the company.

.

Yang Jingxing drove to the door of Fu's barbecue to pick up Fu Feirong, and then found a place nearby to drink tea. After Fu Feirong got in the car, Xiao Shuxia stared at Fu Feirong in the back seat for a while without saying anything. Yang Jingxing said

Fu Feirong looks ordinary, but I didn’t expect to be so ordinary!

It was Yang Jingxing who asked first: "Have you had lunch?"

Fu Feirong nodded: "Eat."
