After being defeated by Qingmei, I became a top player

Chapter 41 C+ Contract
At noon, Chen Shuren left the villa area alone and went to the coffee shop he had made an appointment with Zeng Juan.

When Chen Shuren entered the coffee shop, Zeng Juan was already drinking coffee inside.

"Sister Zeng, I'm sorry, I'm late."

Chen Shuren said while sitting in his seat.

"Haha, I'm pretty good at talking. I'm not late. It's just that I don't like to make others wait, so I just arrived early."

Zeng Juan smiled.

"Let's see what we drink."

"Okay...a cup of iced coffee, thank you."

Chen Shuren was not polite. After ordering a cup of coffee from the waiter, he looked at Zeng Juan.

"Sister Zeng, are you here to sign a contract with me this time?"

Chen Shuren got to the point directly.

"Well, I do have thoughts in this regard." Zeng Juan looked at Chen Shuren and sighed, "I didn't expect you to be so outstanding in Director Wang's variety show."

Hearing Zeng Juan's compliment, Chen Shuren smiled and said nothing.

"Before discussing signing a contract, I would like to ask, where is your creative bottleneck?"

Chen Shuren was stunned when he heard Zeng Juan's words.

Creative bottleneck?

He looked at his preaching point and thought about it, not knowing what to say.

Seeing Chen Shuren's silence, Zeng Juan changed her method of questioning.

"In other words, what kind of creation are you good at?"

"..."

Chen Shuren originally wanted to remain silent, but thinking that this might involve future signings, he spoke anyway.

"Well, I don't know what I'm good at. You can understand that my creations all appear in a flash of inspiration, so the type of work I can create depends on what triggered my flash of inspiration at that time. .”

"..."

After hearing Chen Shuren's explanation, Zeng Juan fell silent this time.

If Chen Shuren said that he was good at folk songs and creation of traditional musical instruments, it would be easy for her to understand, but a flash of inspiration?
Isn’t this just watching the sky and eating?
Zeng Juan frowned, feeling that Chen Shuren's words were a bit too false.

But then, she thought about what she had learned about Chen Shuren, and this feeling dissipated a bit.

From the harmonica and songs at the beginning, to the erhu, ventriloquism, three-line love letters, piano, and last night's "Horse Racing".

All these are expressing one thing to Zeng Juan.

Chen Shuren is a genius.

And genius means that the probability of a flash of inspiration is greater than others.

Thinking of this, Zeng Juan reached out to open the bag, glanced at the two contracts in the bag, her eyes flickered, and then took out the second contract from the bag.

"This is Tianyu's C+ level artist contract, do you want to take a look?"

Chen Shuren saw this and took over the contract.

He wasn't dissatisfied when he heard about the C+ contract.

All entertainment companies in Daxia divide artist contracts into five levels.

From low to high they are, D, C, B, A, S.

In addition to the five levels, there are also D+, C+, B+, A+, and S+.

This is not to say that C+ is better than C, the plus sign represents additional treaties.

Generally, this kind of treaty is prepared for special artists.

For example, some artists' abilities exceed the standards of a C-level contract but cannot reach B-level. In this case, they will sign a C+ level contract to satisfy the artist.Chen Shuren’s contract is no exception.

In fact, before Chen Shuren came here, he had thought about what kind of contract Zeng Juan would give him. In his mind, the highest possible contract would be C-level.

After all, even if an amateur becomes popular on the show, it doesn't mean much.

In previous years, there were no newcomers who suddenly became popular, but when the popularity subsided and without the blessing of filters, the performance of these newcomers would drop significantly.

Chen Shuren's performance in the show is very good, which will give him some bonus when signing the contract, but it is only "some".

After asking Chi Hong and learning that there was no problem with the contract itself, Chen Shuren focused on the contract period.

"Sister Zeng, I am a newcomer and I don't know much about contracts. Is this the case for the five-year period?"

When Chen Shuren asked about the contract period, Sister Zeng raised her eyebrows.

She thought Chen Shuren would care about the contents of the contract, but she didn't expect that he would ask about the deadline first.

After reading the contract, I immediately asked about the contract period because I was worried that I would be tied up by the contract if I became popular.

Zeng Juan naturally has her own opinion on this.

"Speaking of it, five years is considered a rare one. Most newcomers will be concerned about the contract period, but in fact, as long as you show value in these five years, the contract will definitely be upgraded, and the terms will also Will change.”

"After all, if you become popular, the liquidated damages of up to 500 million in a C-level contract cannot stop others from poaching."

Zeng Juan said with a smile.

After hearing this, Chen Shuren nodded on the surface, but he had different thoughts in his heart.

Isn’t this statement just painting a big picture?
It's like the boss of a start-up company saying to you, "Son, today's society values ​​ability. It doesn't matter if your salary is two thousand now. If your level improves in two years, will your salary still be two thousand?"

There is nothing wrong with this statement. The key is to listen to it. It is equivalent to giving the initiative to others.

After two years, even if you have a monthly income of [-] yuan, whether you can get a salary increase depends on your boss's ideas.

Chen Shuren did not show anything to Zeng Juan because of the contract. After all, from the very beginning, all the attitudes shown by Zeng Juan were sincere and she did not force him.

"Sister Zeng, everything you said is right, but I think if we start at a higher level, the future may be better."

Chen Shuren pushed the contract over.

Zeng Juan raised her eyebrows, looked at Chen Shuren and said, "You mean, you want to wait a little longer?"

Seeing Chen Shuren nodding, Zeng Juan hesitated.

If when she first met Chen Shuren, she said she wanted to sign Chen Shuren, she might not even need a C-level contract. Like other amateurs, if she had a D-level contract, she would basically get Chen Shuren.

But that time she really didn't expect that Chen Shuren would show signs of rising from such a small variety show.

Now, the same situation was placed in front of her, and she had to make a choice again.

Of course she can let Chen Shuren continue to participate in variety shows and see if he will be more outstanding in the future.

But what if it really becomes more popular?
Wouldn't she want to look at the same person twice?

Looking at the handsome boy in front of her who she hadn't seen for nearly half a month and who was becoming more confident, Zeng Juan asked an irrelevant question out of nowhere.

"Have you become more handsome?"

"Ok?"

Chen Shuren was stunned for a moment when he was asked. His head was working hard, wondering if this was some new negotiation technique.

But before he could figure it out, Zeng Juan herself smiled and changed the subject.

"If I wanted to sign you today, what conditions do you think would make you agree?"

Chen Shuren looked at the capable middle-aged woman in front of him and wondered why she dared to say such a thing.
