Chapter 062: 30 Million Liquidated Damages
Chapter 062 Thirty million liquidated damages
Seeing that Tang Feng was not speaking, Gu Jiachen smiled bitterly and continued: "Originally, with my current international reputation and status, it is impossible to have any conflicts with a newcomer. However, the entertainment industry is too deep and some things cannot be explained according to the truth. Recently, some subtle conflicts between us have begun to show up."
Tang Feng raised his eyebrows lightly and said lightly: "In this way, the endorsement of Mengtang Group's product is a good resource?"
"That's natural," Gu Jiachen nodded and affirmed, "Mr. Tang, you may not know much about commercial endorsements here. In fact, for us local stars, no matter how high-end they go, they will eventually develop based on China. China is the largest market, which is incomparable to Western countries."
Tang Feng said "yes" and agreed. He had already known this.
"Actually, I also want to endorse domestic brands all the time, but my current positioning is already an international superstar, so the agency has received me some international big brands, but I know where my future development is, so I have been secretly looking for domestic brands that are more suitable for me. However, these domestic brands that have already entered the international market have fixed spokespersons, and I have no chance to intervene at all." Although Gu Jiachen had a faint smile on her face, her voice did seem a little helpless, and she also felt involuntarily in her eyes.
Tang Feng said with some confusion: "So, are you interested in the endorsement of Mengtang Group before?"
"It can be said that yes, or it can be said that it is not. I want to get involved in domestic brands now. In addition to snatching resources from other people, I have to try my best to cooperate with new brands. However, the brand that cooperates with this partner must be of high-end level and must have great development. I don't know what the new products of Mengtang Group are. I also wanted to go over and learn about them before, but I have not taken any action yet. The endorsement has been confirmed to be the newcomer, so I have not asked about it again."
Gu Jiachen's eyes were hanging down. Although his voice was very calm, Tang Feng could feel her smile a little stiff.
It is obvious that the newcomer mentioned by Gu Jiachen relies on the power of the backstage funder, and he got this endorsement without any suspense, which made Gu Jiachen feel a little unreliable.
"I understand," Tang Feng smiled softly, "Actually, Mengtang Group started to build momentum and took the banner of first-tier brands. This is a dark horse among domestic brands. With the promotional strength and high-end R&D team, anyone can see that this product will definitely have a place internationally in the future. Whoever can get this spokesperson first will get a big advantage."
"That's right, that's it. My endorsement contract was at the end of the year. At that time, I was looking for a new partner. The agency knew that I wanted to cooperate with domestic brands, but..." Gu Jiachen did not continue to say it, but just smiled and shook his head, expressing his unwillingness to say more, and everything was left unspeakable.
"So now, are you still interested in this endorsement?"
Gu Jiachen smiled bitterly, shook his head again, and said, "Mr. Tang, you probably don't know how complicated the situation is now. You know, do you know that the newcomer accused Meng Tang Group of breach of contract and sued Meng Tang in court some time ago?"
"I know, she said that Mengtang Group could not launch products in time, which caused an abortion of endorsements, affected her other similar products endorsements, and hurt her reputation. She asked Mengtang to apologize and compensate." Tang Feng sneered, with a sarcastic tone.
"At that time, there was still more than a month before the release date of Mengtang Group's products. The date of the press conference was not yet reached. She was determined that Mengtang would breach the contract and couldn't wait to accuse Mengtang Group, Mr. Tang, I think you can understand that this is definitely not a person's personal behavior." Gu Jiachen looked at Tang Feng with a helpless look on his face.
Tang Feng certainly knew that the complex relationship and the dilemma encountered by Mengtang Group were ultimately suppressed by the Lin Mengjia family's forces. The sponsor of this spokesperson probably had some connection with the Lin family, or he might be a member of the Lin family.
"I know this, and you don't have to say much." Tang Feng waved his hand and stopped Gu Jiachen's topic.
Gu Jiachen knew and said: "The brokerage company is also involved in this breach of contract and prosecution. My current fame, status and value are given to me by the brokerage company. The brokerage company I signed that year was a ten-year contract with harsh conditions, almost equivalent to a contract of selling. Although I am nominally an international superstar now, I dare not turn against them for the brokerage company, and I cannot go beyond the brokerage company and sign an endorsement contract by myself."
Tang Feng nodded slowly. When Gu Jiachen said this, he seemed to be under pressure from the agency and did not dare to take over the endorsement of Mengtang Group. Now he refused.
Since Gu Jiachen is like this, Tang Feng did not force it. Just when he was about to say something, Gu Jiachen changed the subject and said, "The reason why I signed this company and they were willing to spend such a lot of financial resources and manpower to package me is related to Hanhan's biological father. Now I draw a clear line with him. I have long left the agency, but I am struggling to leave without anyone to help. If Mr. Tang can give me some help, I can terminate the contract with the agency and restore my freedom. At that time, endorsement of Mengtang Group's products will be something I can do."
"How do I need to help you?" Tang Feng looked at Gu Jiachen and asked.
"My liquidated damages are 30 million." Gu Jiachen smiled bitterly, and saw Tang Feng showing confusion on his face, and explained: "Although my salary is not low, most of the contracts signed are handed over to the economic company. What I can get is only a small part. After I had a conflict with Hanhan's father, my film contracts and endorsements have become less and less. Basically, there is only an international superstar name here, but it is actually a half-hidden state. Otherwise, I would not have been as leisurely as I am now, and I often say that Pingyang will come to accompany Hanhan."
"Money isn't a big problem, are there anything else?"
"After I terminated the contract with the agency, I need to get a strong enough protection to ensure that I and Hanhan will not be threatened by the other party." Gu Jiachen showed a worried look on his face, "In fact, compared with the liquidated damages, this is what I worry about the most, and I hope Mr. Tang can help me the most."
