This protracted tug-of-war began with a long microblog published by G.E.M., who unilaterally announced the termination of the cooperative relationship with her owner Hummingbird in Weibo, and the lines were full of disappointment and dissatisfaction with Hummingbird.
As soon as the news came out, it rushed to the top of the hot search list in Weibo, and also caused an uproar among the people who ate melons. After all, as we all know, G.E.M. signed a contract with Hummingbird from the beginning of his debut, and the two sides accompanied each other for more than ten times.
Zhang Dan, the owner of the hummingbird, took a fancy to 15-year-old G.E.M. in the SpiceItUp School Singing Competition and invited her to become a hummingbird signing singer. It can be said that Zhang Dan is the Bole of G.E.M. and the most important figure in her music career. Just like the first sentence in G.E.M.'s long Weibo: In this life, apart from my father, you used to be my most trusted person. ...
In order not to affect fans, G.E.M. said in a statement: There are still eight concert tickets that have been officially sold out. As long as the hummingbird doesn't cancel, I will fulfill the established announcement.
As soon as the news that G.E.M. broke off the contract with the hummingbird came out, fans cheered: You can finally leave the "blood-sucking bird"! Why do fans hate their love bean club so much? Then look down and you will find the answer.
Hummingbird apparently sent a Weibo in response to this matter after G.E.M. issued a statement ... The statement said, "I only know that G.E.M. and people around her are interested in handling their personal music career independently, even though our contract with G.E.M will not expire until 2022 ..." It implies that G.E.M. will leave Hummingbird for some benefits and break the contract first. At the concert in Macau, G.E.M., first, fans found that the big poster outside the venue was torn by others. ...
Then there was something wrong with the stage venue before the performance, which caused the concert that should have started at 8 o'clock to be delayed to 10, and fans shouted for a refund. Later, G.E.M. apologized in Weibo: I asked the technicians, and they said it was a technical failure. There are two large lifting platforms on the stage that suddenly stopped before the performance …
You know, many fans came all the way by plane, boat, rest and leave to see G.E.M.'s concert. In this case, fans suspect that this is a narrow-minded hummingbird deliberately doing this to get back at General Electric ... After all, there has been no equipment failure during so many inspections. Why did this happen when the contract was terminated?
It was also revealed that G.E.M. mentioned that he would go out and apologize to the audience when he comforted the fans during the live broadcast, but the staff refused. Later, fortunately, the concert went smoothly, but according to netizens, no one paid for the eight concerts after G.E.M.'s cancellation, and even the transportation expenses had to be paid by himself.
In the face of all kinds of statements from the outside world, Hummingbird once again issued a statement in response to the relationship with G.E.M., saying that the contract between the two parties has not yet been signed, and we will never accept the statement on the termination of the contract issued by G.E.M. ..
In addition, the statement particularly emphasized that on the effective date of the contract, Hummingbird has full ownership of all copyrights of music works produced or co-produced by G.E.M.. Subsequently, Hummingbird Music sued G.E.M. on the contract issue, accusing him of unilateral breach of contract, which caused the company to lose hundreds of millions of dollars.
Attentive netizens found that the name G.E.M. has been registered as a trademark by Hummingbird Company, and I'm afraid that G.E.M. can't continue to use the name G.E.M. after canceling the contract with Hummingbird.
The name is just a code name, fans like her, not the name, but if the copyright of the song is not in their own hands, not only the hard work will be in vain, but even singing their own songs will be regarded as infringement.
Subsequently, the media asked G.E.M. for verification, and the response was that Hummingbird defaulted first. Hummingbird threatened her to renew her contract with the company on the grounds of "I am a singer" finals, otherwise she would not be allowed to participate in the competition. The contract signed on 20 14 has come into effect, and G.E.M. has not breached the contract, and will continue to use the name of G.E.M. ..
Remember the storm that G.E.M. was openly disowned by Hong Tao: If you don't change the song, we will change people? G.E.M. was the biggest dark horse of I am a singer that season, but G.E.M.'s name was not on the singer list of I am a singer summit.
The reason for the online madness was that G.E.M. wanted to sing her own songs, and the director group wanted her to cover them, but G.E.M. strongly disagreed, so the program group had to remove her from the list.
At that time, hats such as playing big cards, ingratitude and gone with the wind were buckled on G.E.M.'s head one by one.
The truth came out. The person who didn't agree to change the song was not G.E.M. at all, but Zhang Dan, the boss of Hummingbird. In order to get G.E.M. to promote the new song, he called Hong Tao to ask for a change of song. "Your program is important, change someone else!"
Therefore, G.E.M. has been misunderstood by the public for many years.
Where there is oppression, there is resistance. After Hummingbird sued G.E.M., Zi Qi sued Hummingbird and CEO Zhang Dan in the High Court with her real name Deng Shiying, claiming that the contract with Hummingbird had already been signed, and she demanded that the copyright of her songs and lyrics be transferred to her own name, and claimed from Hummingbird the unpaid singing fee for 40 concerts of the Queen of Hearts in G.E.M. ..
At this point, fans realized that the concerts held in G.E.M. in the past two years were actually zero income, and all the money earned went into the company's pocket.
Faced with all kinds of accusations, Hummingbird Company posted a long microblog about the difficulties in cultivating G.E.M. and the company over the years, but said that no one wanted to buy it.
Some fans listed the "seven deadly sins" of hummingbirds, accusing them of being unfair to G.E.M. and committing various "crimes". Hummingbirds are not big companies. In the early years, there were several artists who signed up, but none of them had new works. Basically, GE has only one signed artist. ..
It is no exaggeration to say that G.E.M. alone supports the whole company, but hummingbirds have repeatedly squeezed her to test her bottom line, which is also the reason why G.E.M. fans are dissatisfied with the company for many years.
G.E.M. sent Weibo to announce that her personal video account has exceeded 10 billion. At the same time, she announced: "I will never use GEMblog account from now on" and reminded fans that "if you see the update of this account in the future, please know that it is not me, haha!"
Just when everyone was fighting for her, she comforted her fans in turn: she learned to swim only after being thrown into the swimming pool; When you are exiled to the ocean, you will find the treasure.
What G.E.M. lacks most is courage and strength. When "I am the Peak of Singer" was reviled by countless people, G.E.M., who was under great public pressure, unloaded Weibo and stayed at home. In those gloomy days, music became her only support.
So she wrote the song "New Heartbeat".
G.E.M., who is keen on leather pants, was ridiculed as the "Queen of Leather Pants" by the whole network. She wore leather pants printed with the words "Leather Pants" and fought back generously on the stage.
After being ridiculed by netizens, she insisted on fitness, and now the painting style of MV is like a fairy. Many people are waiting to see G.E.M. and Jiang Lang, but in fact, G.E.M. has been growing, from Bubble, Stay Together as Long as possible, and Love You to New Heartbeat, One-way Street to Beyond Light Years and Countdown to the Release.
The little girl's body is full of great energy. Some singers may only produce one song in their lifetime, but it may be difficult for you to tell which song is G.E.M.'s best work, because she has a steady stream of talent and inspiration, and every time she releases a new song, it will bring new surprises to people.
No matter how many rumors there are, G.E.M. will use her works to fight back. Recalling G.E.M.'s experience, she did not lack the courage and strength of Nirvana when she came here.
