Listening to the chatter in the room, Xu Fengnian sighed deeply!It seemed Du Chengyi presence in the company was extremely weak.
After a while, the noisy voices gradually calmed making the huge conference room silent. All of them focused on Cao Feifei"s body waiting for her to solve this issue.
Cao Feifei stood up, she had just established her image in the company, she couldn"t have it ruined.
"Clearly state what it is you want or leave, we are very busy people."
"Okay, then I"ll get straight to the point." Zhao Zilin took out a doc.u.ment from her handbag and said with a strong voice: "This is the contract signed by Mr. Du Chengyi three years ago with your New Century Entertainment.
However, in the past few years, your company hasn"t fulfilled the contractual agreements made with Mr. Du Chengyi, my client and in accordance with the first paragraph of Article 1 of the Liability for Negligence in Contracting, your party has violated my clients" rights. After the contracting stage, when both parties have discussed, negotiated and finalized the contract, they enter a special relations.h.i.+p. Both parties then bear certain obligations according to the principle of good faith. The accompanying obligations are mutual a.s.sistance, mutual care, mutual notification, mutual honesty and so on. If the party violates its accompanying obligations and destroys the contractual relations.h.i.+p, it const.i.tutes a contractual fault.
In the past three years, your company has not fulfilled its due obligations to my client, Mr. Du Chengyi. During this period, you only arranged work for Mr. Du Chengyi five time, leaving him unable maintain his living standards.
Your company has to bear full responsibility and timely make compensation to my client Mr. Du Chengyi. Otherwise, we will sue you in order to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of our client. "
The heads of various departments faces were filled with shock. Even Xu Fengnian was shocked.
Xu Fengnian quickly recovered from his shock and a large smile blossomed on his face. He hurriedly gave Zhao Zilin a thumbs up.
Seeing the shock and anxiousness on the faces of the people in the room he was overjoyed. He was originally ready just to settle and pay the million to buy Du Chengyi out of his contract but now...
"Please rest a.s.sured Mr. Xu, I have 100% confidence that New Century Entertainment will compensate Mr. Du Chengyi. We will not have to pay the cancellation fee to them, they will be the ones paying us." Zhao Zilin said with confidence. Her face was full of self-confidence and a charming smile.
Seeing Zhao Zilin"s confidence Cao Feifei immediately ordered: "Call Lawyer Wu and Lawyer Chen and bring me all the information you have on Du Chengyi."
In less than two minutes, Lawyer Wu and Chen rushed over.
The two were elite therefore, in Cao Feifei"s view they were enough to deal with Zhao Zilin.
Unexpectedly, after learning the specifics the two lawyers kept shaking their heads and sighing seemingly helpless because Zhao Zilin"s words were in line with the law.
Just as the two lawyers were lost in thought thinking of loopholes, a staff member hurriedly went to Cao Feifei"s side and whispered a report: "General Manager, I have already checked, Du Chengyi is indeed an artist of our company he signed a contract with our company for a period of five years, he is one of the third-string artists. Which is why in the past three years, our company hasn"t arranged anything for him."
Just as the staff members voice finished, Zhao Zilin added: "My client, Mr. Du Chengyi is a Singaporean who came over with a work job permit from your company.
However, since Mr. Du Chengyi and your company signed the contract you haven"t fulfilled your due responsibility to Mr. Du Chengyi, which has seriously affected the future of my clients, which in turn caused economic losses for our client.
There is a clear stipulation in Huaxia"s Contract Law that if one of the parties doesn"t fulfil its obligations and responsibilities to the other party during the contracting period, then as a result the contractual agreement between the two parties will be automatically revoked after one year.
Zhao Zilin said with enthusiasm.
"According to my summary, the contract between Mr. Du Chengyi and your New Century Entertainment Company has automatically invalidated two years ago. Therefore, even if my client leaves your company to find another, there will be no breach of contract. On the contrary, your company must compensate my client for all the damage you have caused him. We are willing to settle for 185,000 yuan. Of course, you can also choose to refuse our offer, in which case we can simply bring your company to court. I"m sure you understand what this would do to your company"s reputation if it got out, taking advantage of young impressionable immigrants using the premise of making them stars."
"You..."
