After Tang Hongling arrived at Hongfa Law Firm, she discussed with the lawyer for almost two hours.
The outcome of the discussion was not optimistic.
Mainly based on the contractual principle of equal rights and obligations, the LPT club did invest a lot of money in Tang Hongling's promotion.
Although Tang Hongling didn't know about this kind of promotion, he did benefit from it.
Therefore, Tang Hongling's liquidated damages must be at least 50 million.
Coming out of the law firm, the agent, Sister Luo, said, "Hongling, how about you just bear with me for a while, just for half a year."
Sister Luo is in her thirties. She is not from the e-sports industry, but from the entertainment industry.
"Impossible!" Tang Hongling said stubbornly, "I must leave the LPT club within three days!"
She has been working hard for Yin Shen to come back and wash away her shame. Now that Yin Shen is finally willing to come back, how can she let go at the critical moment?
Sister Luo urged: "Don't act on your own initiative. You have a bright future and you are destined to enter the entertainment industry in the future. If you easily get into trouble with your last employer, it will not only affect your image and popularity, but also your future and entertainment industry." Corporate cooperation. It’s not worth it.”
Tang Hongling stopped, turned around and looked at Sister Luo, and said seriously: "Sister Luo, I am not a female star, I am a professional e-sports player, and I earn my living based on my true skills! The so-called image and popularity are just the icing on the cake for me! "
"The so-called hidden rules in the entertainment industry are of no use to me!"
…
The next morning, Tang Hongling took Sister Luo and Lawyer Wang to the LPT Club for negotiations.
Zheng Feilong, the owner of the LPT club, deliberately failed to delay the meeting.
However, Tang Hongling was not someone who was easily manipulated. She called Zheng Feilong directly and said coldly: "These children's tricks are useless! If you really have to go to the court to meet, the consequences are beyond your expectation!"
Zheng Feilong finally agreed to come over for an interview immediately.
After waiting in the living room for a while, there was a sudden knock on the door twice, then the door was pushed open and Lan Yu walked in.
"Qingyou, can we have a talk?" Lan Yu looked at Tang Hongling and said.
He just received a call from his boss asking him to persuade Tang Hongling, and then he learned that Tang Hongling was leaving the LPT team.
He was so shocked and surprised that his mind went blank.
"Okay, let's talk here." Tang Hongling said.
Lan Yu did not speak immediately, but glanced at Sister Luo and Lawyer Wang.
Tang Hongling said: "It's okay."
"Okay." Lan Yu smiled bitterly and walked to Tang Hongling, "You want to leave the LPT team, why didn't you tell me?"
Tang Hongling had no expression on her face and did not answer Lan Yu's words.
Lan Yu could only continue: "Which team are you going to transfer to?"
"I will start my own business," Tang Hongling said, "and form my own team."
If she didn't say anything about it, Lan Yu would know it sooner or later, so there was no need to hide it.
"Establish your own team?" Lan Yu couldn't help but be surprised.
The next moment, he said excitedly: "Qingyou, I will also join your team, okay?"
He pursued Tang Hongling for almost three years without success. Now he felt that it was a great opportunity. He believed that Tang Hongling would be lacking high-end professional players when he established his own team. Tang Hongling will definitely be very moved by his help in times of need.
"Thank you for your kindness, but my team is not short of people." Tang Hongling declined quietly.
She knew what Lan Yu was thinking, so how could she give Lan Yu a chance?
Lan Yu said unwillingly: "How is it possible that there is no shortage? No capable player can easily join a newly established team. Don't worry, the annual salary I require is very low, and I will pay the liquidated damages myself. Moreover, I can also become a shareholder …”
Sister Luo and Lawyer Wang next to me were speechless as they listened.
They guessed that Lan Yu might have been instigated by Zheng Feilong to persuade Tang Hongling to stay, but they didn't expect that Lan Yu didn't say a word to persuade him to stay and directly rebelled.
"Sorry, my team really doesn't lack experts like you." Tang Hongling had no choice but to interrupt.
Lan Yu sighed dejectedly, paused, and said, "The boss asked me to advise you not to leave the LPT team."
After saying that, he smiled bitterly, knowing that he had no influence on Tang Hongling.
Then he stood up and left the reception room.
After leaving the reception room, he couldn't help but feel suffocated and even angry.
After pursuing her for three years, Tang Hongling left without saying a word to him.
He asked to join, but was still not accepted.
Not even qualified to be a dog licker!
More than an hour later, Zheng Feilong finally arrived.
Zheng Feilong is in his forties, with a fat body, a lot of fat on his face, and triangular eyes.
The establishment of the LPT team was the most unexpected surprise in his life. Since Tang Hongling joined the LPT team, he seemed to have received great luck. He was promoted from a second- and third-rate team to a first-rate team, won the KPL championship, and finally reached the King of Glory World Cup. champion!
These achievements are secondary to him. The key is Tang Hongling's super popularity and tens of millions of fans, which allows him to make a lot of money from it, becoming his largest source of income.
Now, this cheap cash cow is about to fly away, how could he let go? !
When the negotiation started, Tang Hongling asked the lawyer to talk to Zheng Feilong.
Zheng Feilong insisted that the liquidated damages should be at least 200 million, otherwise he would sue Tang Hongling and ruin Tang Hongling's reputation.
"Mr. Zheng, your request is suspected of extortion, please think twice." Lawyer Wang said.
Zheng Feilong said arrogantly: "You can sue whatever you want!"
Lawyer Wang: “Please pay attention to your attitude.”
"I have this attitude, what's wrong?"
Obviously, we can't talk anymore.
Tang Hongling said coldly: "Zheng Feilong, if you are not willing to negotiate, then let the court decide!"
"I'll tell you the truth, I'm not afraid at all of your threats to ruin my reputation. I, Qingyou, have gotten to where I am today by my own strength, and my reputation won't affect me from winning the championship again!"
"You think you've ruined my reputation, but do you think the LPT Club won't become a street rat?"
"There is an idiom that says when a fish dies, the net breaks. But the fish does not necessarily die, the net must break!"
"50 million, this is my bottom line, otherwise I will see you in court tomorrow!"
Zheng Feilong's eyes couldn't help but twitch, and he had to think deeply. Tang Hongling's unyielding momentum frightened him a little.
If there really is a fight to the death, the LPT club may really be destroyed.
The main income of the LPT club comes from home game tickets, advertising endorsements and selling peripheral souvenirs, so reputation is also very important to the LPT club.
If the LPT club gets a bad reputation, it will probably go bankrupt.
If your most profitable project fails, a chain reaction will occur, such as bank loans, with serious consequences.
"At least 150 million!" Zheng Feilong finally relaxed.
Tang Hongling: "Fifty million, I'd rather use the rest to litigate!"
"Qingyou, don't bully others too much!" Zheng Feilong said angrily, "You were in the LPT club, when did I ever treat you badly?"
Tang Hongling said coldly: "That's because I helped you make a lot of money!"
"Everyone takes a step back, it must be 100 million!" Zheng Feilong said.
Tang Hongling sneered "haha" and stood up: "See you in court tomorrow!"
After saying that, she strode out of the reception room, followed by Sister Luo and Lawyer Wang.
After walking out of the LPT club, Sister Luo couldn't help but advise: "Hongling, he has already regressed, there is no need to say it all at once."
Lawyer Wang also said: "Yes, actually we can continue the discussion, it just takes some time."
Tang Hongling shook his head and said with a sharp look: "Maybe, but I can't get over it. I am an e-sports player. If I lose my breath, I will be useless! I would rather lose both sides than suffer any injustice!"
At 8:30 a.m. the next day, Tang Hongling received a call from Feng Feilong, offering to release him for 50 million.
Tang Hongling asked Feng Feilong to go to Hongfa Law Firm to terminate the contract.
At twelve o'clock at noon, Tang Hongling paid Zheng Feilong 50 million and got the contract for friendly negotiation to terminate the contract.
Finally free, Tang Hongling couldn't wait to call Zhong Yu to announce the good news.
On the phone, she told Zhong Yu that she had successfully terminated the contract with an advance payment of 15 million.
"Okay, I will transfer 15 million to you from the company account later." Zhong Yu had no idea that Tang Hongling paid a price of 50 million.
