Chapter 82 Helping Nazar negotiate contract termination
For most people, April is just an ordinary month.
As always, Cai Yinong was thinking about the company's development.
Currently, the situation for Sugar People is that Hu Ge is trying to transition to stage plays, Liu Shishi is diligently filming, and Nazha has risen to stardom thanks to Gu Jian Qi Tan...
Gu Jian Qi Tan...
Thinking about this project, Cai Yinong's eyes revealed endless sorrow, and she would often grit her teeth and stay up all night in agitation.
The better her grades were in Gujian Qitan, the more upset she became.
Cai Yinong never expected that Wang Weili, a newcomer who debuted last year with Xuan-Yuan Sword, would rise to the top tier this year with his second work.
Even a rocket wouldn't be this fast, right?
In this process, Sugar Man only served as a rocket booster for him to accumulate popularity in the early stages, and was discarded after use, without gaining any other benefits.
What angered Cai Yinong even more was that after Wang Weili was promoted to the top tier, he immediately reached an agreement with Enlight Media and secured a 3 million yuan financing agreement.
Then, on the last day of the month, Blueberry TV suddenly announced that it had acquired the South Korean SBS's hit variety show Running Man, with the co-producers being Star Productions and Star River Media.
Xinghe Media is Wang Weili's company.
A newcomer who has not even been in the industry for a year has already reached cooperation agreements with top companies and TV stations in the industry.
Cai Yinong really wants to ask Wang Weili how he did it?
I'd like to ask him what his purpose was in suddenly coming to the sugar figurine shop today?
Wang Weili took a sip of his hot Americano, frowned slightly as if he wasn't used to it, but then, seeing Cai Yinong's tense expression, he instantly relaxed and smiled.
"K-sister, your coffee beans are roasted a bit too dark..."
"Just say what you want to say, don't beat around the bush. What are you doing here?"
Cai Yinong's tone was so cold it was practically screaming "I don't welcome you!" to Wang Weili.
Wang Weili's smile remained unchanged: "You've been studying four-character parallel prose lately... OK, since you don't want to exchange pleasantries, I'll get straight to the point: Naza wants to terminate his contract!"
Surprised?
Cai Yinong was not surprised at all.
The relationship between Naza and Wang Weili had already become a topic of conversation during their first year at the company.
Even Naza's casting as the second female lead in "Swords of Legends" was orchestrated by Wang Weili.
Wang Weili now has a certain status and strength in the industry, and Naza has also gained some fame. Isn't terminating their contracts and switching companies just a basic operation?
But... "I disagree."
Cai Yinong lowered her eyes, her voice devoid of sorrow or joy, yet unusually resolute.
"Okay, that's all for today."
Wang Weili put down his cup decisively, got up to leave, and didn't even try to make a move.
This has left Cai Yinong at a loss.
"You're just leaving like that?"
"Yes, a lawyer will come to discuss the next steps."
"Why don't you try to fight for it yourself?"
"I?"
Wang Weili gave Cai Yinong a strange look, then suddenly spoke faster: "If it were last year, I might have tried to help Naza terminate her contract, but now there's no need for that."
"I prefer to go straight to the compensation stage. I don't mind if it involves legal procedures and drags on. I have to take a Didi taxi to a meeting later. Let the lawyers handle the rest."
After saying that, he was about to leave.
Forget about striking a pose and pretending to be innocent, Cai Yinong blurted out, "Wait a minute! What conditions are you willing to offer?"
This statement immediately put them in a weaker position.
Realizing this, Cai Yinong immediately turned pale, but there was nothing she could do.
After all, she couldn't do anything about Wang Weili last year, so it's even more impossible this year.
Wang Weili stopped, sat back down on the sofa with a smile, as if he had never gotten up to leave.
Cai Yinong clenched her back teeth, and her dark complexion is unlikely to return to normal.
Wang Weili pushed away the hot Americano and said directly, "I can have a newcomer from Sugar Man's company come to Running Man as a guest star for one episode."
"Are you trying to fob me off like a beggar? That girl is already a second-tier celebrity, earning the company millions every year. You think you can sign her just by offering her a guest appearance? She should at least be a regular host!"
Cai Yinong's exorbitant demands were actually a test of Wang Weili's bottom line.
Wang Weili shook his head: "The control over this variety show rests with Blueberry TV. I can only recommend, but not decide, who the regular hosts will be."
"Aren't you a co-producer?"
"so what?"
"Don't you even have the right to speak to people? Did you get scammed by CCTV? Do you want me to teach you how to talk to them?"
Just a minute ago, Cai Yinong was glaring at Wang Weili, but when it came to her own interests, she immediately joined his camp.
Wang Weili looked at Cai Yinong with a smile: "I have the power to push people, but I traded it for something else, so all I have left is the power to make suggestions."
"What did you change?"
"That has nothing to do with what happened today."
"Um……"
Cai Yinong frowned and pondered, her crossed legs unconsciously nodding in the air with her toes pointing outwards.
Wang Weili didn't urge him, but just looked at the wallpaper on the opposite wall with an indifferent expression.
Cai Yinong suddenly put down her crossed legs and said, "I want one episode of guest stars, five people in total. Then you can recommend a regular host for me. Whether it works out or not depends on how Blueberry TV chooses."
"There are only three guest slots available. Who would you like me to recommend?"
Wang Weili looked at Cai Yinong, wondering who she would give the opportunity to.
Hu Ge is currently performing in a stage play, so it's unlikely; Liu Shishi's new play is about to wrap up filming...
"Shishi!"
Cai Yinong confidently stated, "Given her current popularity, Blueberry TV shouldn't refuse, right?"
"I'll help recommend them."
Wang Weili did not give a clear answer, but in his heart he felt that it would be good to make Liu Shishi a regular host.
However, his agreement did not make Cai Yinong happy; instead, it aroused strong suspicion.
Cai Yinong stared into Wang Weili's eyes and said seriously, "I heard from Director Lin Yufen that Shishi went to visit you on the set of 'Swords of Legends' last year... When did your relationship become so good?"
"Sister K, do you think I'm closer to Nazha or Sister Shi?"
This rhetorical question dispelled most of Cai Yinong's doubts.
She knew Liu Shishi well and knew that Liu Shishi didn't like young boys. Moreover, Liu Shishi didn't have a good impression of Wang Weili when they were on the set of Gu Jian Qi Tan.
"Then why did Shishi visit you on set?"
"Consult me on how to successfully terminate my contract with the company."
Wang Weili's smile faded, and he looked at Cai Yinong with a calm expression.
Although his contract termination process involved many unknown details and twists, it took him less than half a month from the formal proposal to the successful termination, which can be described as quite smooth.
Cai Yinong was shocked, thinking to herself that such a possibility really existed.
Liu Shishi's current status limits her advancement in the television drama industry, and even if she wants to move into film, Sugar Man can't provide her with the necessary resources...
"So what did you tell Shishi?"
"Does that matter? Sister Shi hasn't even mentioned terminating the contract with you yet, which is already quite obvious. The rest is up to you to do."
Wang Weili's words revealed nothing, yet they made Cai Yinong feel extremely nervous.
Seeing that Cai Yinong seemed somewhat distracted, he got up from the sofa and took the initiative to end the negotiation.
"Sister K, I have other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave now! I'll have my lawyer come over to discuss the details of terminating the contract."
"OK……"
Cai Yinong nodded, her mind racing with the possible choices Liu Shishi might make, and the more she thought about it, the more panicked she became.
