"Are you sure Tongtong is contributing and not hindering the team? The competition lasts for 47 days. Tongtong has no ability to gather resources, obtain food and water, and can only walk for one hour."
If Ye Zi hadn't been prepared and chosen a cart as a survival tool to pull her forward, how far do you think she could have gone?
Putting all that aside, she never even did night watch work. If Ye Zi hadn't been sleeping outside every day, she wouldn't even be left with a trace now.
"Tell me, what did she do?" Old Feng's calm voice came from the other end of the phone.
"But you advertised that the final grand prize would be split equally," the boss said with a dark face.
Two and a half million US dollars, nearly twenty million Chinese yuan. Even after taxes, he would still have thirteen or fourteen million. According to the profit-sharing ratio, he could get at least half, which is several million. Moreover, this money was almost free, without using any company resources.
"That's how it's advertised, but it has to contribute to survival, right? What contribution has Tongtong made? Tell me."
Besides, it's not up to us to decide who gets the money. They're asking for it to go to Ye Zi, what can I do?
Why don't you talk to them?
"them?"
Yes, them.
After hanging up the phone, the boss was a little dejected. When Lao Feng said "they," he was referring to the special department where Li Erniu worked, but he didn't know that.
Boss Tongtong thought it was the group of people from abroad who planned this time-traveling survival adventure.
He's just the owner of a talent agency, and he has some influence in the domestic entertainment industry, but abroad, he's nothing. Otherwise, his artists would have already made it to Hollywood.
Old Feng said that on purpose, just to see if the boss had heard of that special department.
The grand prize became a thorn in the side of Boss Tongtong, who even considered suing the program team.
But Lao Feng's status in the entertainment industry is not something to be taken lightly. Even if you gave him the guts, he wouldn't dare to do it, otherwise the artists under his management wouldn't let him off the hook.
After working their butts off to make a name for themselves in the industry, Lao Feng got sued by his own boss. Who would dare to hire them in the future?
Although they couldn't sue Lao Feng, the boss still brought in the company's legal team to see if there was any way to claim a portion of the bonus.
The legal team studied the program's promotional content, and the boss contacted the live streaming platform because the platform's share of the tips had not yet been received.
The result was more direct: several live streaming platforms were using the account Ye Zi used when she first participated in the survival show, the account from the time she streamed in Alaska.
Although this account wasn't given to Ye Zi, it is indeed Ye Zi's account.
Therefore, these donations are assumed to belong to Ye Zi and have already been sent to Ye Zi's account.
Their company didn't mention using Tongtong's account for the live stream, nor did they provide Tongtong's account, so Tongtong wasn't involved in the revenue sharing from the tips.
This infuriated the boss, but it was all true. He also didn't dare to offend the live streaming platforms, and besides, the revenue sharing from tips wasn't much, so it wasn't worth doing.
The legal team reviewed the program's promotional materials and suddenly discovered that Lao Feng was only responsible for coordinating the live broadcasts on various platforms, arranging staff, and communicating with the main program team.
The selection of contestants was handled by Gao Dasong, who had disappeared from the public eye.
In this program, he and Lao Feng do not interfere with each other, and neither of them can control the other.
If you want to file a complaint, you can only sue James, the one who met with the contestants with Lao Feng, let them form their own teams, and agreed to let Ye Zi exchange two survival tools for the cart.
Moreover, the promotional materials never mentioned the idea that the winning team would split the final prize; this was just a result that everyone assumed.
After all, anyone who can participate in such a life-threatening program must have some skills.
But Tongtong is an exception.
After hearing the legal team's research findings, the boss knew that there was basically no hope of getting a share of the final grand prize.
Public opinion might force Ye Zi to make concessions, but that would ruin Tong Tong's reputation, and he'd still be thinking about renewing his contract.
The boss got even angrier when it came to renewing the contract, because Tongtong's request was her only request, and it was this request that made him even angrier.
Using dating and marriage as a gimmick is a publicity stunt employed by talent agencies to generate traffic.
They hype it up for a while, gain traffic, and then deny it.
But Tongtong isn't just creating hype; their relationship is now officially confirmed.
Not only did they not deny the rumors, but they even added a clause to the new contract stating that there were no restrictions on marriage and relationships, indicating a strong possibility of getting married.
Fortunately, Tongtong has arrived in Beijing and will be coming to the company soon to discuss contract renewal.
What the boss didn't know was that when Tongtong came to Beijing, Yezi came with her, and she came to meet Tongtong's parents.
When Tongtong's mother saw Yezi, her eyes lit up. Dressed casually, with a sunny smile on her face, Yezi, who weighed over 200 pounds, didn't look fat at all, after all, Yezi was quite tall, over 1.9 meters.
That's a very tall person, no matter where they are.
The whole conversation was very relaxed. Tongtong's mother had the feeling of a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, finding him pleasing to the eye no matter what.
As for work, they didn't even ask. With fifty or sixty million in hand, as long as he doesn't have any bad habits, he'll have no worries about food and clothing.
Moreover, Tongtong also said that Ye Zi is ostensibly a shepherd, but in reality he works for the country and has a good future and financial prospects.
If she doesn't approve of a son-in-law like this, she must be blind.
After meeting Tongtong's parents, Yezi stayed at Tongtong's house. In Tongtong's mother's words, "It's not like we don't have rooms at home, why stay in a hotel?"
After staying at home for two days, Tongtong's mother found Yezi more and more pleasing to the eye. There was no other reason than that Yezi always managed to devour all the food she cooked at mealtimes.
Then, Tongtong received a call from her agent, asking her to come to the company to discuss contract renewal.
When Tongtong appeared at the company arm in arm with Yezi, everyone present was astonished. Although their relationship was already confirmed, it was the first time they had ever seen them come to discuss contract renewal in such a high-profile manner.
With Ye Zi's hearing, she naturally heard people whispering that Tong Tong was ruining her future by bringing her boyfriend along when she renewed her contract.
Some people were gloating, saying that several artists who hadn't yet made it big were already discussing with their agents how to get the resources that Tongtong had vacated.
Ye Zi sneered. If Tongtong really wanted those resources, no one could take them away.
When discussing the contract renewal, Tongtong frowned upon seeing the new contract, while Yezi took a look at it.
Although the company did not refuse Tongtong's request, it did not exactly agree to it either.
The contract states that dating is allowed, but they cannot appear together in public; marriage is allowed, but they cannot announce it or hold a wedding ceremony.
Finally, Tongtong's share will be reduced by 10% from now on.
