What does it mean to be after an artist's termination fee, and what does it mean to be short-sighted?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He recognized every word when combined, but when netizens decoded that it referred to the company he managed, the president was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's not like that at all!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He only targeted the artist Jian Liting; he was still managing other artists well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for why he targeted Jian Liting, the reason was simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his eyes, an artist is just a commodity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the commodity is disobedient and wants to tear off the label the company has given her, then naturally, it must be replaced with another more obedient commodity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he was going to replace this commodity, he certainly couldn't let the price of the original commodity rise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, it would be a losing business.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he wanted to suppress Jian Liting, not let her receive any more stage plays, and it would be best to force her to quit the entertainment industry and become a civilian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, if Jin Li hadn't intervened, this president's plan would have eventually succeeded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Jian Liting had a firm will; even if she briefly said goodbye to the entertainment industry, she would find an opportunity a few years later and make a comeback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even a pearl covered in dust is still a pearl, and one day it will radiate its own light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The president's phone kept ringing; many people in the industry called him to ask if he had offended someone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some announcement parties even actively canceled their cooperation with the artists under his banner because the public opinion on the internet was not good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The president was busy and overwhelmed, unable to care about Jian Liting for a while, let alone call Director Zheng at night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He only hoped that this storm would pass quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side, Jian Liting's manager found out about this after getting off the plane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hesitated for a moment, feeling that the company must have offended someone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, these negative news wouldn't have spread so rapidly, and it wouldn't have hit the hot search so quickly. There must be someone behind it buying traffic and exposure to push it up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a flash of inspiration crossed her mind; she thought of Jian Liting, and then thought of Director Zheng, whom Jian Liting was going to film for, and her face turned pale instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No way, it can't be such a coincidence, right? Could it be that Director Zheng took action to suppress the company in order to help Jian Liting?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That shouldn't be; what is so good about Jian Liting, what did Director Zheng see in her?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The manager hurried to the Film and Television City; she wanted to find Jian Liting and ask for the truth!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was it because Director Zheng took action to suppress the company and broke so much negative news in order to help her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what she didn't expect most was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She couldn't even enter the gate of the crew; she was stopped by security just on the outskirts of the Film and Television City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The security guard looked her up and down, \"Are you a tourist?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He continued: \"Tourists cannot use this passage; you have to go to the other passage to swipe your card to enter the city.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The manager shook her head: \"No, I am a manager, and I need to enter the crew to find my artist.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The security guard took out a piece of paper: \"Then come and register your name first, and who is the artist you are responsible for?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The manager filled out the form with her name and number, and at the same time said: \"I am Jian Liting's manager.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, the security guard's expression changed, and he blurted out: \"You are the manager of that black-hearted company?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The manager choked; what kind of internet surfing speed is this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The news had only been out for less than three hours, how does it feel like the whole world knows?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she got off the plane, she felt like someone was watching her; she clearly wasn't an artist, so it was impossible for her to be watched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The security guard continued: \"You still come to find Jian Liting; are you sure she is in this Film and Television City?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She has been frozen by your company for several years and hasn't received any exposure, and you still have the nerve to come find her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The manager's mouth twitched, and she barely managed a smile, saying with a fake smile:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You misunderstood; the company has other arrangements for Jian Liting. She has been performing in stage plays these past few years to polish her acting skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The news on the internet only told half the story, not the whole thing. Jian Liting also took the audition for Director Zheng's 'Desperate Counterattack' and successfully joined 'Desperate Counterattack'. I am here this time to visit her and bring her good things.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The security guard said skeptically: \"So that's how it is. I saw those netizens talking so convincingly, and I thought your company specifically exploited artists just to earn their termination fees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Liting is a first-line star after all, and she hasn't fallen behind yet. It's not easy for you to cultivate a first-line star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it's really just to cheat a first-line star out of her termination fee, that's too immoral!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The manager felt that the smile on her face could no longer be maintained; she felt a burst of shame and annoyance in her heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suppressing Jian Liting was the president's decision, and she was Jian Liting's manager; she was also in a difficult position regarding the company's arrangements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both palms and the back of the hand are flesh, but she has to follow the company's decisions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, it's the company that pays her salary, not Jian Liting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of this matter, the company also compensated her with several promising new artists, all of whom had the potential to impact the first line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An arm cannot twist a thigh, so she could only ignore Jian Liting's grievances and follow the company's arrangements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The security guard took her information and performed the final step of verification.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He called the floor manager of the 'Desperate Counterattack' crew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hello, this is the Film and Television City security team. There is a manager who says she wants to come in to see an artist. The artist is in the 'Desperate Counterattack' crew, and her name is Jian Liting. Is there such an arrangement?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's no wonder the security guard was so cautious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The area he is responsible for has very strict security. The crews filming in this area have the highest level of confidentiality, and they are basically filming movies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If any fan disguised as an industry insider were let in to take photos and then break the news, it would cause serious losses to the crew and would very likely lead to a movie being unable to be released.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These crews with very strict confidentiality work have all signed separate confidentiality agreements with the Film and Television City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the person who leaked the photos was let in by them, the Film and Television City would have to compensate the crew a huge sum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The security guard didn't know what he heard, but he suddenly looked at the manager several times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before long, he hung up the phone and said with a serious expression:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You cannot enter. The floor manager of the 'Desperate Counterattack' crew told me that you didn't make any appointment and are an outsider. Even if you are Jian Liting's manager, you cannot enter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did you not communicate with Jian Liting and just suddenly drop in to visit the set?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You should communicate with Jian Liting first, and then have your artist apply for a set visit appointment with the crew's floor manager. You can only enter after the crew approves it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The manager had endured it all the way, and this time she couldn't endure it anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She frowned and questioned angrily: \"What's going on? Is it that strict? Is it because you have selfish motives and are deliberately not letting me in?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I have visited so many crews before, and none of them have been as strict as you. You are messing with me, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her put such a big hat on him, the security guard was not happy either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was clearly speaking nicely and asking the other party to follow the process, so how did it become messing with her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Security guard: \"It's the same for everyone. Even if the manager of a superstar comes, they have to make an appointment first and fill out a set visit application before we let them in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who knows if you are really here to visit the artist or have other purposes?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe you want to ruin the crew and deliberately came to take photos to leak the crew's information!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Can you sign a confidentiality agreement? Can you be responsible for your behavior if you accidentally leak information?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The manager said in a fit of shame and anger: \"You, you... you are arguing sophistry! You just look down on me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The security guard's mouth fired like a machine gun: \"What about me? Since you can't take this responsibility, just honestly follow the process to apply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don't say I'm messing with you. I'll say it again: even if you are the manager of a superstar, if there is no prior appointment and no application process filled out, we won't let you in. We have to be responsible for our work!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scene of Jian Liting's manager arguing with the security guard at the gate of the Film and Television City was filmed by someone and quietly uploaded to the internet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person who filmed the video was just a tourist; they didn't follow entertainment industry gossip and didn't know that the person arguing with the security guard was Jian Liting's manager.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From a bystander's perspective, they felt the security guard's behavior was not wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Other artists' managers have to fill out set visit forms in advance; it's not like only she has to write one, so why should she be an exception?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This video was soon noticed by gossipers wandering in the blog topic square. They recognized that the woman in the video was Jian Liting's manager and began to dig deep with curiosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Where is Jian Liting's fan club? Do they know what her latest movements are?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A while ago, I saw her still forwarding stage play promotions, so why did her manager suddenly appear in the Film and Television City?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Finished watching the video; some of the dialogue was not very clear, but I could hear the gist of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I'm not curious about anything else; the only thing I'm curious about is whether Jian Liting is actually in the Film and Television City, or if the manager is visiting her junior brothers and sisters?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Jian Liting's fan club suddenly appeared and posted a very long article on their official blog, recounting Liting's experiences over the past two years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>V Jian Liting Fan Club: [Since Liting's exposure decreased two years ago and she stopped taking on film and TV dramas to perform in stage plays, her contact with the fan club has been very little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The last contact was a month ago. Liting mocked herself, saying she was about to be unemployed and might not even be able to perform in stage plays in the future, and even asked the president of the fan club to disband it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She said the fan club existed in name only, she couldn't provide any benefits to the fans, and she was no longer that glamorous big star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fans wanted to see her work hard on her career, but she could barely maintain her livelihood. The worst-case scenario was quitting the entertainment industry!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that time, we saw Liting say this in the group with our own eyes; we were very heartbroken but helpless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fans have tried their best to help her promote stage plays, but stage plays have a threshold for the audience, and the popularity of a stage play requires the right time, place, and people; not every stage play is destined to be a hit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So today, seeing the revelations on the internet, we are not surprised at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liting is the only first-line star in her company, but the company hasn't arranged any film or TV dramas or other commercial announcements for her in the past two years. The intention to suppress her is already very obvious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who wouldn't want to hold onto a money tree that brings in money every day? Unless the company just wants to earn this money tree's termination fee!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This statement from the fan club pushed the company, which had just come out to clarify and refute rumors, to the forefront of the storm again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Liting's number of fans is already very small.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this time, it wasn't just fans who were exerting effort; many passersby couldn't stand it either, full of doubts, and commented one after another under the company's official blog.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[You say there's no such thing, that you are planning Jian Liting's announcements, and that the company respects and supports her choice to perform in stage plays to polish her acting skills over the years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But you even stopped her commercial work; what's going on? Killing the donkey after the mill is done?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Industry insiders have already come out to break the news that it's not that no crews have invited Jian Liting, but you helped her turn them down. Turning them down isn't enough; you even specifically recommended other artists from the company to join the crew. What are your intentions?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[666, just saw the latest video broken by netizens. Jian Liting's manager argued with the security guard at the gate of the Film and Television City. It turns out she didn't make an appointment at all and just wanted to rush into the Film and Television City!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The manager doesn't contact Jian Liting at all; how stiff must the relationship be that she wouldn't even help the manager submit a set visit application?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the 'Desperate Counterattack' crew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Liting had just finished her part and had an hour of rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took out her phone and found that there were 99+ WeChat messages, which was rare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She couldn't help but be stunned; what was going on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li didn't send her any messages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had sent messages to other stars in a group before, and those stars were indifferent, but this time, those stars replied to her one after another—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[When is this stage play scheduled? I have to see if I have time in my schedule]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a very good attitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately after, the second message came, all asking her if the revelations on the internet were true or false, and if her company really wanted to earn her termination fee, which was why they were so harsh to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Liting was confused and quickly opened her blog, only to find that her topic was actually number one on the hot search!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She read out the question from one of the netizens: \"Deliberately reducing her exposure, not letting her take film and TV dramas, and driving her to perform in stage plays—is this what the company calls long-term development?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Liting couldn't help but laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's a good thing she wasn't drinking water, otherwise she would have definitely sprayed it out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even netizens can see the problem, yet the company still issued such a clarification statement...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are they treating netizens like fools, or is the company imitating the Ah Q spirit, thinking that as long as they can't see it, the world will revolve around their thoughts?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"By the way, Jian Liting, I just received a call from the security team.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The floor manager ran over, panting, and said: \"Your manager is standing at the gate of the Film and Television City, wanting to come in to visit you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the crew has strict confidentiality regulations.
