Cheng Cheng said that he did not read the contract carefully, so Qi Rong simply asked him to sit next to him and read it together, starting from the beginning, focusing on the responsibilities and obligations of Party A and Party B and the breach of contract clauses. He patiently explained them to him one by one and asked him about the relevant situation.
As he was asking questions, Cheng Cheng suddenly said, "Lawyer Qi, you are such a nice person."
Qi Rong smiled and said nothing. In the adult world, it is difficult to simply judge a person as good or bad. What he showed to Cheng Cheng was far from good. He just gave a little face to his junior brother Yan Yan on the basis of taking the commission.
"So how long do you train every day?"
"It starts at 1pm and ends at 1am, sometimes 2 or 3am, excluding meals..."
Before Cheng Cheng finished speaking, Qi Rong frowned and interrupted him: "It must have been more than ten hours. Did you know that the "E-sports Industry Management Law" was issued last year?"
"I heard about it, but I didn't watch it. I was too busy playing games." Cheng Cheng met Qi Rong's gaze and felt more and more guilty the more he spoke.
If Brother Yan were here, he would definitely mock him. He could imagine the tone of his voice. He would definitely say: How can you be so capable? Why do you think of hiring a lawyer now that you want to terminate the contract? Why don’t you just keep working hard
Cheng Cheng was a little afraid that Qi Rong would scold him. It was obviously he who hired the lawyer and he was the one who paid the money. Logically speaking, how could the one who paid the money be afraid of the one who collected the money? However, Qi Rong's aura was too strong. When he stared at him, he was like a stern elder, and it seemed that he could discipline him at any time.
But Qi Rong didn't scold him. He just said: "After the introduction of the e-sports management law, a lot of legal basis was provided for industry norms. For example, on the basis of affirming the flexible working hours in the e-sports industry, it stipulates that e-sports players should have at least one day off per week and no less than six days off per month. If they cannot take a normal rest day on statutory holidays due to competitions or training arrangements, they must take compensatory rest days."
Cheng Cheng's mouth formed an O shape as he said, "But no one else did that... I saw other teams were also working very hard."
"It's not wrong to understand it as voluntary additional training, but if you want to file a lawsuit for termination of contract, then of course you have to protect your rights according to the law."
"Oh..." Cheng Cheng felt that he was a little confused. He was a simple-minded person and had never thought about the extra training.
Qi Rong added: "The e-sports management law also has requirements for daily training hours, which should not exceed eight hours in principle, and the intensive training phase for important events should not exceed ten hours."
"That's impossible. This amount of time is not enough. After completing the basic training, we can't even play a few training matches."
"That's why they have to retire at such a young age. The country stipulates that athletes must retire before the age of 29. Some athletes in the United States retire at the age of 40, but the average retirement age for e-sports athletes is 24. Is it really just because the body can't react fast enough at the age of 24?"
"Isn't it?" Cheng Cheng asked hesitantly, and then quickly shut up after asking three words. He felt that although Qi Rong's expression was relatively normal, his eyes were a little cold.
"The physical wear and tear caused by overtraining, abnormal work and rest schedules and diet are all consuming your career."
"Gurgle... Gurgle..." Cheng Cheng's stomach started to rumble before Qi Rong finished speaking, as if he was giving away evidence.
Qi Rong raised his wrist to check the time, and Cheng Cheng's eyes unconsciously went to his watch. It was a watch brand he didn't recognize, with a silver bracelet, a white dial, and dark royal blue hands. It was simple, generous and elegant, just like the feeling he gave people.
