Chapter 828 Is Coming

833. Here they come

Unlike male artists who are "making a living" outside and preparing to buy out their contracts, the female artists of TB Company are in a very embarrassing situation now, because the company can no longer pick out a few "reputable" male artists to act with them.

So now they are also in a state of suspension. Some people wanted to work part-time as salesgirls in big luxury stores to relieve the economic pressure.

But they found that the luxury stores at this time were "occupied" by the models of Ulan and Alamar. In order to survive in Hong Kong, these models from Ulan and Alamar not only learned Chinese, but also could use dialects fluently to talk to customers.

So for a while, people in luxury stores looked down on these "female artists" who came part-time. After all, there is a thing called aesthetic fatigue. These people were seen on TV every day before, but they felt a little tired.

On the contrary, these blonde and blue-eyed models brought a lot of traffic to these stores, not to mention that some luxury stores originally wanted to take the "international" route.

Influenced by some luxury stores, many local brands in Hong Kong have also begun to use some foreign models as shop assistants, because they found that the "cost" of these people is really frighteningly low.

Why were Southeast Asian maids so popular in Hong Kong before? The reason is that they are cheap, even a family that has just entered the middle class can afford it, and these people are still very "satisfied" with their wages.

So later on, these people completely "monopolized" the market in Hong Kong, and people from other countries who want to enter this industry will find that they don't even look down on those salaries.

At the same time, the biggest trouble that Hu Xing and the other two are facing now is the breach of contract by the sponsor, and they need to pay a large amount of money in the future.

Although it was the sponsor who unilaterally breached the contract, it was clearly written in the contract that if the sponsor unilaterally breached the contract, it only needed to compensate 10% of the amount, but they have already used all the money, where can they go to compensate?

Not to mention that the bulk of the money was taken by TB Company. Want to ask TB Company for money? Haha, that's like looking for lice on a bald head, impossible.

Myolie Wu looked very unhappy when she returned to the apartment. She had just called her agent on the way back and asked if she could ask the company for an advance on her "salary".

Unexpectedly, the agent told her clearly that it was impossible now. The company was in a mess. Many TV series and movies had stopped filming. Every day of delay was burning money. There was no compensation for these "outdated" artists who were idle at home.

"It's so annoying. They were the ones who made this kind of thing. Now they are still acting so high and mighty." Xu Di said angrily.

Xu Xi also frowned and said, "Xiao Xing, what about the penalty for breach of contract this time?"

"Hey, the total endorsement fee is 3 million, and I only took 600,000. Now the sponsor is asking for a refund of 2.7 million. Even if the company is willing to refund the money, I still have 100,000 less." Myolie Wu said with a tangled face.

Myolie Wu's calculation is based on the assumption that TB company is willing to refund the money. If the company is not willing to refund the money, then the loss she needs to bear will be even greater.

"Then can we ask Director Liu for mercy?" Xu Xi thought for a while and said.

Hu Xing smiled bitterly and said, "Still begging for mercy? How can I go to him? Director Liu gave us a chance, but the people in the company are too domineering."

"That's right, your company is a Zhou Paopi." Xu Di sat on the sofa, puffed up her cheeks and said angrily.

Hu Xing took a deep breath and shook her head and said, "It looks like we will lose our money again this time."

"Ah? Not really?" Xu Xi was a little stunned.

Hu Xing sighed and said, "I lost a lot of money during the stock market crash before, and now I have to pay interest to the bank every month. I guess it will be difficult to find things in the future with the current market."

"Hey, that's right, don't worry, Xiao Xing, everything will be fine, you have to have confidence in yourself." Xu Xi looked at her depressed girlfriend and comforted her.

"I hope so." Hu Xing smiled bitterly. Although she said so, she didn't have the confidence at all. After all, the sponsors are asking her to "pay back the money". If she delays for too long and goes to the bank, her life will not be easy.

Especially since she still owes the bank a loan, if the bank puts her on the blacklist and asks her to pay off the previous loan in advance, that would be the worst.

Hu Xing's current experience is "much" better than Zhang Ning and Yang Xinyue. Yang Xinyue owed a large sum of money to the bank after she and her husband went bankrupt. Now is the time for the couple to work hard to pay back the money, so Yang Xinyue, who received the "endorsement fee", immediately paid off some of the previous debts with her husband.

But I didn't expect that the sponsors and advertisers would "break the contract" and they couldn't come up with extra money for a while.

Especially Zhang Ning, she has been "taking care of the baby" at home all this time and has no income at all. After her divorce, she owed a lot of debts, so she had to come out and take on new roles.

Unexpectedly, she jumped into a big pit just after her "comeback", and now TB TV station has no other new dramas to start. Her income has been zero and she needs to keep spending.

In the past, you could still "make money by going to catwalk shows", but now that Zhou Ji has taken the lead in announcing that he "will not cooperate with people from TB Company", the income of these female artists can be said to have plummeted.

Even some of her previous "part-time jobs" were taken away by the latest Ulan models and models from Alama. For a while, it was difficult for her to even find a job as a "cabinet sister".

Therefore, she is the most embarrassed person now.

In this regard, the people who most hope that TB Company will come out to "reconcile" are these "passed artists" whose interests have been hugely impacted.

Especially female artists, they are not as easy to "make money" as male artists.

In the past, as long as these female artists "let go", there would still be many rich second generations who would "praise" them. But now, with more and more foreign models settling in Hong Kong, their It's also becoming less attractive.

Even many directors who shoot large-scale movies have begun to use some foreign models. After all, if you get tired of some things, you can change your taste.

So even if Wu Xing is now willing to make some large-scale movies like the previous "Queen Yuyan", she doesn't have that chance.

"Dingdong, dear Ms. Hu, your November interest bill with our bank has been reached. Please pay this month's interest before November 30. Late payment fees will be added if you exceed the due date."

Hu Xing's face turned darker as she looked at the text messages on her phone.
