Chapter 468
Stella took the contract and started reading.
The offer that Elegant Media gave her was very good.
The company will allocate endorsements, reality shows, dramas, etc. to their artists according to theirtalent, so they won't have to worry about not getting any jobs.
The company will also pay the artists even if they could not secure any jobs at the beginning of theircareers.
Not only would the artists get paid, but the company will contribute to their social security accounts too.
After securing a job, the artist will divide his/her earnings evenly with the company.
However, a new contract would be proposed after the artist started to get famous, to offer the artistmore money.
Even though Stella had never signed a contract with any company, she heard many stories aboutagencies from her friends who graduated from the same course as her and worked in this industry.
It was very common for rookies like them to be tricked by agencies.
Some agencies would neglect the artist after signing the contract.
They would not give them any jobs, pay them, or even provide them with a place to stay.
So, it was very hard for unrecognized artists to earn a living.
If those artists were to earn some side income by accepting a walk- on role, the agencies would tellthem it would be bad for their future and popularity.
They would also bluff by telling the artists that being a walk-on was the same as giving other people anopportunity to put them down when they got famous.
They would not be able to take any jobs on their own after signing the contract.
The agency would ask the artists to pay an outrageous penalty if they found out about it.novelbin
There were already a lot of new artists falling into traps like this.
Many young artists had to pay the penalty before they even got famous.
The lucky ones would get another chance if they were scouted by another company that would pay thepenalty for them.
However, the unlucky ones would have to spend their lives paying it off.
Stella read the penalty clause carefully.
She found that Elegant Media had no problem with their artists accepting jobs personally as long as itwould not disrupt the jobs given by the company.
Elegant media would only take a twenty percent commission for jobs like this.
However, if the artist's performance was affected because he or she took too many jobs, the artistwould be considered breaching the contract.
And the penalty was two million dollars.
It was a reasonable amount compared to other agencies that would ask for ten million.
The offer was exceptionally good.
It was so good, that it made Stella wonder if Trevor had other intentions.
She remembered what Xavier said in the car.
After looking at the smile on Trevor's face, she pursed her lips.
"What's wrong?" Trevor asked.
"Feel free to let me know if there's anything you wish to change."
Stella kept quiet for a while before she said, "I came here just to work."Trevor was confused.
"What?"
Stella looked at him.
"Your assistant introduced you to me in the car just now, and I won't deny that you could be a goodboyfriend. However, I don't have any romantic feelings for you. I'm afraid that I can't sign this contract."
Trevor's mouth twitched as he turned around to look at Xavier.
" What nonsense did you say to Ms. Stella?"
Xavier was shocked.
"I thought you were interested in her, no?"
"You idiot!"
Trevor could not stop himself from cursing.
"I'm only interested in her talent!"
Xavier kept quiet.
‘who are you trying to fool? Would you be bothered to investigate about her family if you're onlyinterested in her talent? You even wanted to find out when she started school and which hospital shewent to when she was sick"
Stella watched their interaction and felt that Trevor really did not seem like he had feelings for her.
‘We've only met a few times. Why would he be interested in me? ‘Well, if it's because of the way Ilook.."
Stella gave Trevor a once-over.She thought that Trevor would probably look better than her if he were agirl.So, she ruled out that possibility.
