Wang Han stayed in a five-star hotel in the capital and booked a business suite specifically for Anxin.
After winning the championship of China's Voice, Anxin's net worth soared. She went from an unknown singer in a bar to a popular talent show star in the entertainment industry. Her life immediately changed.
Now, she not only had her own manager and assistant, she was driven to and fro by luxury cars. Her commercial appearances cost as much as five hundred thousand and her advertising contract was basically comparable to that of a B-list celebrity.
In terms of image, Senyue, which was represented by Wang Han, came up with a complete package for Anxin.
As a well-known professional management company in the industry, Sen Yue's foresight was undoubtedly very shrewd. When China's Voice started to gain popularity in the country, they had already targeted a few potential rookies and successfully signed an exclusive contract with Anxin. Fortunately, they managed to seize the opportunity.
However, Senyue was not an entertainment media company. They only took Anxin's manager position to sell her at a high price, or even to use her as a cash cow in the long run.
It should be said that it was Lu Chen's "stubbornness" that gave Senyue such an opportunity.
However, Senyue was not grateful to Lu Chen. Instead, they used Anxin as a trump card, intending to dig out more benefits from Chenfei Media. That was why they spared no effort in creating hype on the internet.
In a sense, they did a good job, forcing Lu Chen to come forward in person.
However, Lu Chen flipped the table.
Therefore, Wang Han and Gao Shan returned to the hotel with a sense of defeat.
"How did it go?"
Anxin was in the room with her assistant. Seeing the two of them, she immediately got up and asked them.
Ever since she rejected the contract offered by Lu Xi in Hangzhou, Anxin had been feeling uneasy.
Her uneasiness was first of all guilt. She felt that she had let down Lu Chen, who had always appreciated her, and Chen Fei 'er, who had taken care of her.
Moreover, Anxin knew that signing with Chenfei Media was definitely a good thing for her.
However, she was persuaded by Wang Han.
Wang Han's reasoning was very straightforward and naked. If you don't look out for yourself, heaven and earth will destroy you. It was one thing to be grateful to Lu Chen and Chen Fei 'er, but it was another thing to sign a contract and sell yourself.
The speed at which celebrities were eliminated in the entertainment industry was very fast. Even though she was very popular now, no one would pay attention to her in a few months. If she didn't take advantage of the boom to sell herself for a good price, it would be unrealistic to hope for the long term.
Putting everything else aside, Anxin should be well aware of her own weaknesses.
Who could guarantee that Chenfei Media would support her to the end?
Anxin was speechless.
Therefore, she listened to Wang Han's suggestion and did exactly what the latter wanted.
Of course, in Anxin's mind, as long as the conditions were right, Chenfei Media was the best choice.
She was already restless waiting in the hotel.
Wang Han and Gao Shan looked at each other. Gao Shan coughed and said, "It's over. Lu Chen doesn't want to sign it."
Anxin's face darkened.
Was it really over?
Wang Han hurried to comfort her. "It's okay. It's Chenfei Media's loss if they don't sign it. You've seen the contract offered by Meichen Entertainment. We have better options."
Meichen Entertainment was a new company established two years ago. The boss behind it was a big real estate developer in the capital. He was very rich and had signed many celebrities in the past two years.
Meichen Entertainment's contract was indeed better than Chenfei Media's, but the specific terms were much harsher than Chenfei Media's. There were more restrictions on Anxin.
Meichen Entertainment was undoubtedly the best choice apart from Chenfei Media. The other companies were much weaker.
An Xin nodded, feeling much more at ease.
She thought that since Chenfei Media had taken the initiative to give up on her, she had nothing to feel guilty about.
"Sister Wang, Sister An …"
At this time, the assistant sitting on the sofa with a laptop said timidly, "Chenfei Media just made an announcement. It has something to do with us."
"What?"
Wang Han, Anxin and Gao Shan were all shocked. Wang Han hurried to grab the laptop.
She had a faint feeling that something was wrong.
Chenfei Media's official announcement was made a few minutes ago. In the announcement, Chenfei Media first clarified the many false rumors circulating on the internet. They would entrust a lawyer to issue a warning to those who spread malicious rumors. They also had the right to use legal means to protect their reputation.
In addition, Chenfei Media expressed that due to differences, Chenfei Media would not sign the contract with the champion of China's Voice, Anxin. At the same time, they sent their blessings to Anxin.
At the end of the announcement, there were seven high-definition pictures attached. They were the scanned contract text for Anxin!
Chenfei Media's official announcement immediately caused a stir on the blog.
The first half of the announcement was very official. It was a common routine. Everyone was already used to it and it was just to express their attitude. They could not take it seriously.
However, the second half was very interesting. First, they confirmed that they would not sign Anxin. It could be considered as an end to the incident. Then, they posted the contents of the contract. That was very unusual.
It seemed that no media or entertainment company had ever done this before!
That was because for film and television media and entertainment companies, artists' contracts were confidential. Unless it was a lawsuit, it could not be leaked.
Chenfei Media's actions were thought-provoking.
Outsiders in the industry were just there to watch the show. However, those in the industry would have to study it carefully. That was equivalent to Chenfei Media leaking their internal business secrets to the public.
Soon, there were industry insiders on Waves who made a detailed analysis.
First of all, the contract was obviously not a newcomer's contract. Be it the signing fee or the percentage, it was about the standard of a second or third-tier artist. It was not very generous, but it was not harsh, not to mention being exploited.
This industry insider expressed that compared to Anxin's current popularity, the terms of the contract were slightly lower.
However, even though the terms were lower, there were surprisingly few restrictions on signing artists. The simplest one was the breach fee, which was only a mere 3 million. That was the conscience of the industry!
Normally, it would be more like a 0. Especially in recent years, there were more and more lawsuits between artists and their companies. The breach fee was generally higher as the contract was signed. It was to prevent artists from job-hopping or going solo.
It was understandable that Anxin did not sign such a contract. However, Chenfei Media could not be said to be unkind.
It was very kind!
