Because Li Xiao had given them some precautions in advance, even Xia Xia and Xiao Bai looked at the contract terms carefully.

Seeing how seriously they were reading, Zhu Motou's assistant, Liu Yi, said with a smile, "Do you understand? If there's anything you don't understand, just let us know and we'll explain it to you."

Xia Xia thought, this person is quite nice.

So a few people watched and raised questions.

Assistant Liu began to explain one by one.

While explaining, he also praised them, saying how lucky they were, how they had encountered a good platform, how the conditions Tianyu gave them were the best, and how they would become famous in no time after signing with Tianyu with their strength.

All everyone heard was Assistant Liu praising and talking a lot in the conference room.

Great eloquence, great vision, and great results.

Xia Xia and Xiao Bai finished reading the contract and asking all the questions. Then, with Assistant Liu praising them, they signed their names with a smile.

Assistant Liu smiled even more happily, and quickly asked the young lady who had stayed in the meeting room to take out the ink pad she had brought, which was used for them to sign their names and seal their names.

Li Xiao had been looking at the contract terms and listening attentively to Assistant Liu's answers to their questions, but he himself had never asked any questions.

Regarding Assistant Liu's answer, if everything he said can be done, then at first glance, this contract looks pretty good.

However, he paid special attention to the points that Qian Cencheng had repeatedly reminded him of, and his brows furrowed.

Both contracts are for 10 years. Isn't that a bit too long? Furthermore, a penalty of 1 million yuan, or 50 times the damages incurred, is simply an astronomical figure.

He saw Xia Xia and Xiao Bai, two naive people, signing their names after being tricked by someone. They were ready to put their signatures on the document, while the others were also eager to sign.

He quickly asked, "Assistant Liu, the other terms of these two contracts are very good, but isn't 10 years a bit too long? Also, the penalty for breach of contract is too high."

Assistant Liu was a little surprised that no one was charmed (fooled) by his boasting.

"This term isn't long at all. You're newcomers with no foundation, so the company has to invest a lot of resources and money in you. If they only sign for three or five years, and you finally become famous and then leave, that's definitely not acceptable. The company isn't a charity; it needs to make money, too. Setting a high penalty fee is the same logic. It also proves that the company values ​​you and is afraid you'll run away."

No matter how well Assistant Liu spoke, he couldn't convince Li Xiao.

He had gone through Qian Cencheng's one-hour emergency training and had a clear understanding of artist contracts.

Besides, the girl repeatedly emphasized that if you are not satisfied with the terms, don't rush to sign, take it back first.

"Assistant Liu, I still feel it's inappropriate. Can you discuss the contract term and liquidated damages? I won't sign this contract as it stands."

After Li Xiao said this, Xia Xia and Xiao Bai couldn't stretch out their hands to take the ink pad.

The five teammates paused all their actions and placed their hands obediently under the conference table, as if they would be unable to resist signing the contract if they placed their hands on it.

The young lady had slipped out without knowing when.

Assistant Liu looked at Li Xiao with cold eyes.

Li Xiao looked at him calmly.

"Are you sure you don't want to sign now?"

"If the two points I mentioned cannot be changed, I definitely won't sign." Li Xiao answered firmly.

Assistant Liu turned to look at the other five people: "What about you? You also listened to him. Now you don't want to sign?"

The five of them remained silent, lowering their heads in silent resistance.

The situation was at a standstill when Huang Tingting and the young lady walked in again.

"Alright, the contract has been given to you. You've reviewed it carefully, and we've answered any questions you had. If there are any areas where the answers didn't satisfy you, you can take it back and think about it again. The production team has rented this base until the end of the month. You can stay here if you want before the end of the month. After that, it's up to you."

Assistant Liu was anxious, "No, you..."

Huang Tingting ignored him and continued, "That's all for today. Contact me when the contract is signed. Xinxin, business card." After she said that, she walked away in her high heels without looking back.

"Okay, Sister Ting."

Before leaving, the young lady quickly handed a stack of business cards to Sheng Weigang, who was closest to her, and then ran after Huang Tingting.

Assistant Liu pointed at Li Xiao in frustration and left.

The remaining FB youth group was quiet in the conference room for a while.

Xiaobai finally said timidly, "Don't you think it would be bad if we went against the company by doing this?"

Yang Fan scoffed, "Who cares? Anyway, I think Li Xiao is right. The term and liquidated damages are indeed too unreasonable."

Sheng Weigang interrogated, "Xiaobai, didn't you and Xia Xia, you two idiots, agree not to rush into signing the contract? And yet you were fooled by that smiling tiger with just a few words. You're really capable!"

Yang Fan retorted, "Stop laughing at me, big brother. If Brother Li hadn't asked, would you and Zeng Wei have already started writing? And you, Xia Xia, stop smirking. I was so anxious when I saw you two pick up your pens and sign your names!"

Li Xiao watched their playfulness and felt a little better. "Alright, I'm glad you don't blame me for being nosy. Anyway, I really won't sign the contract unless these two clauses are changed."

"Don't blame me, we should thank you."

Several people expressed their stance that they would not sign either.

At this time they finally came to their senses.

Oh my god, it was just like being in some pyramid scheme den. I was led around by the nose without even realizing it and almost signed a "contract to sell myself".

Seeing that their performance was to his liking, Li Xiao said a few more words.

"Tianyu is the one that's anxious about the contract. I guess everyone will be coming to us in the next few days. However, we're only dissatisfied with the terms of the contract, not Tianyu. After all, Tianyu is our mentor, right?"

Seeing the five people nod in agreement, he continued, "So, remember this: if people from other entertainment companies approach you, ignore them, and don't meet with people from other companies. Even secretly, there's no such thing as an impenetrable wall.

"The involvement of other companies will not help us in negotiating the contract at all, and will only leave a very bad impression on the owner. Do you understand?"
