Chapter 347: Chapter 346 Television Station Contract Termination

The competition took place at Pingbei TV Station, which was also the main venue.

By the afternoon, many people had gathered outside the TV station because the ratings for this competition were indeed very high, truly attracting a lot of attention.

Ying’er’s car drove straight into the TV station, but when she got out, she was still spotted by the sharp-eyed fans outside.

"Hey, isn’t that Ying’er?"

"Ying’er? She has the nerve to come back?"

"She’s right there, heading into the TV station!"

"My God, what is she trying to do? Doesn’t she know how shameful her actions were? And she still dares to come back?"

People were ranting and hurling insults at Ying’er, among them a girl indignantly said, "Hey, how can you talk like that? Sister Ying’er has already issued a statement. She only wrote the lyrics and didn’t compose the music. The incident wasn’t her fault, she didn’t commit plagiarism!"

"What does a kid like you know? All the stars are like that these days. When there’s trouble, they immediately make someone else take the blame, all just to continue deceiving fans and swindling money?"

Little girl: "Ying’er’s family isn’t short of money, and besides, she has done so much charity work. How could she possibly be here to swindle money?"

"If she’s not lacking money, then why doesn’t she perform for free? Why does she still charge for appearances? Why doesn’t she just give free concerts to the whole country?"

"You... you’re just being argumentative!" the girl said urgently.

"Oh, what would a little girl like you understand? Let me tell you, I’ve seen many stars like her, they’re all the same, utterly deceitful!"

"Yeah, didn’t she use to have so many boyfriends? Do you really think she’s a pure and innocent lady? I’d believe she’s a woman of desire!"

"Hahaha..."

The crowd burst into laughter, the little girl’s face flushed with anger, and she was unable to win the argument, so she could only stand there, clenching her teeth in frustration.

Ying’er was unaware of what was happening outside. She entered the TV station with Su Yang, but there she was met with resistance, and the one obstructing her was the show’s producer.

"Miss Ying’er, I’m really sorry, but we’ve replaced your spot in tonight’s competition with someone else. So, unfortunately, you won’t be able to compete tonight!"

Ying’er became anxious, "Why replace me? That’s my spot, I competed step by step to get here, how can you just swap someone else in midstream?"

The producer smiled, "It’s the production team’s decision, I can’t do anything about it. I’m really sorry, Miss Ying’er. How about I give you a few tickets later for you to watch the competition? That way you can still participate. How does that sound?"

Ying’er’s face was cold. The producer sounded polite, but in reality, he was mocking her. And all this talk about the production team’s decision was just bluster. The producer had absolute power in this matter; this arrangement was certainly his doing.

"Which member of the production team decided this?" Ying’er demanded in a stern voice, "I’ll go and ask them myself!"

The corners of the producer’s mouth curved into a sly smile, "Miss Ying’er, I’m afraid it’s not suitable for you to confront the production team now. Because, our production team has already unilaterally terminated your contract. After all, the scandal you were involved in had such a huge impact, seriously affecting our program’s reputation. If you make more trouble, once the production team starts to pursue the matter, you might even have to pay a penalty for breach of contract!"

Ying’er was furious. Just then, Su Yang came over and said with a light chuckle, "So, this means that Ying’er has already broken the contract with the production team?"

"Correct!" The producer grinned, "Otherwise, we wouldn’t have sought someone else to replace Miss Ying’er, would we?"

"Do you have the termination contract?" Su Yang asked with a smile, "Could you give it to us, so we can be reassured? After all, this is only your word. If there’s no contract later and you say we didn’t compete according to the contract, wouldn’t we be unable to defend ourselves?"

The producer frowned, assuming that Ying’er would try to plead with him not to terminate the contract, which would allow him to take the upper hand. Maybe even get a chance to apply some unwritten rules.

Unexpectedly, the person accompanying Ying’er was so straightforward, immediately asking for the termination contract.

"Miss Ying’er, are you sure you want the termination contract?" The producer asked with a mocking smile, "Once you take it, there’s absolutely no chance for you to perform."

Su Yang replied with a smile, "Just give us the contract. We have different paths, there’s no point in wasting time anymore!"

The producer frowned and said, "Young man, this decision should be made by Miss Ying’er, right? Do you realize that every word you say could have an immeasurable impact on Miss Ying’er’s future prospects?"

"I am Miss Ying’er’s lawyer. I handle all her affairs!" Su Yang said with a smile, "I will take full responsibility!"

The producer looked at Ying’er again, but she simply turned her head away, ignoring him. The producer had no choice but to sigh, "Ah, young people are too impulsive. How about this: think it over for a little while. After tonight’s competition, we can talk in detail, how about that?"

"No need!" Su Yang cut him off, "We’ll decide now. Either we perform, or, bring out the termination contract. Otherwise, I’ll have to sue you for breach of contract. After all, signing a contract and not letting us perform is also illegal!"

"You..." The producer frowned, "Young man, be careful with your words. Considering the actions of Ying’er, if we really wanted to pursue this, she would have to pay a substantial penalty fee!"

Su Yang laughed, "No worries, we just paid a penalty fee of 570 million to Zhaobang Entertainment. This is nothing to us!"

The producer was stunned, a penalty fee of 570 million just like that? How incredibly wealthy they must be!

He knew Ying’er’s family had money, but wasn’t there a rumor lately that many industries of the Shangguan family were on the verge of collapse? Could the Shangguan family still afford to pay this much all at once under those circumstances?

Since they could afford a penalty fee of 570 million, then the penalty from the production team really wasn’t much in comparison.

The producer clenched his teeth and said firmly, "Alright, wait here, I’ll arrange it now!"

The producer went to the back office and immediately sought out the legal department, instructing them to deduct as much money as possible from Ying’er’s contract.

Ten minutes later, the producer came out with the contract.

"Miss Ying’er, according to the terms of the contract, your breach is very serious. Therefore, you need to compensate us with 7.3 million in damages!" the producer said with a smile.

"What?" Ying’er exclaimed anxiously, "7.3 million? That’s not the amount I signed for in the contract!"

"This is what our legal department calculated. If you’re not satisfied, you can negotiate with them," the producer said with a smile, well aware that such negotiations would be just quibbling without any definite end.

"7.3 million, alright, I’ll pay!" Su Yang said with a laugh, "Please draft the contract!"
