Chapter 773 Compensation


    Skr was unaware of Macka''s earnings. To her knowledge, thetter was not exceptionally


    popr. Despite being a regr presence in the entertainment industry and having an infinite


    amount of potential, Macka seemed to be stuck in a perpetual middle ground,cking the


    necessary elements to reach the top.


    Who can be as lucky as Saorise? From the moment she made her debut, her fans worshipped her


    like a goddess. She''s already coborating with top-tier talents in the industry within the first year of


    her debut. If one were to look at the entire entertainment industry, I bet there isn''t an actor who


    wouldn''t want to work with Saorise.


    Saorise was like a lucky charm in the industry. Any male celebrity who had the opportunity to work


    with her would instantly gain poprity. Even the actors who were considered outdated would


    experience a resurgence of fame simply because they coborated with Saorise in a TV series.


    Macka muttered, “Let''s not talk about Saorise anymore. I feel exasperated whenever her name is


    mentioned. Everything seems to go her way. She''s a clear winner in life, no doubt about it. Look at


    Mr. Ford, even he showers her with attention.”


    Her words left Skr stunned, and suddenly the vors of the food seemed to turn bitter in her


    mouth.


    Macka noticed Skr''s strange reaction and a sudden realization struck her. She remembered


    the spective rumors she had read online about Skr and Tobias.


    At that thought, she attempted to get some first-hand information from her good friend. “You and Mr.


    Ford? Don''t worry, I won''t tell anyone about it.”


    Worried that Macka would sense something amiss, she beamed at the woman and said, “I''m not


    afraid of you telling others about it. After all, there''s nothing to say.”


    Macka didn''t quite grasp the meaning behind Skr''s words, but she had no intention of delving


    deeper into the topic and brushed the rumors off as mere spection.


    Suddenly, Skr recalled Tobias'' request to gather information about the contracts of other


    celebrities in theirpany. He had asked her to do so in order to demonstrate how generous he


    was toward her.


    Thus, she posed the question, “What percentage of our earnings does thepany take as a


    commission? Why do I always feel like I seem to receive less money than I expect.”


    Macka responded with a question of her own, “What kind of agreement do you have with the


    company? Mine is a fifty-fifty split.”


    Skr was stunned. “I thought it was twenty-eighty.”


    Macka looked at her friend with an exaggerated expression and eximed, “Twenty-eighty?


    That''s an unbelievable deal! It must be a gift from the heavens. Well, I think fifty-fifty is fair enough. I


    worked hard for it, you know. You can''t even imagine how tough it is for the neers who just


    joined thepany.”


    Skr frowned at that. Even though she was not aware of the struggles faced by some of the other


    celebrities, she could not help but feel that she was the poorest among all the celebrities in Royal


    Entertainment.


    Macka cupped her beautiful face in her hands, feeling utterly dested. “It''s getting harder and


    harder to survive in the entertainment industry. I debuted as a trainee, and I know better than


    anyone else how I made it through h*ll. Did you know how the agency cheated us trainees?”


    Skr shook her head. She was nothing like the trainees because she could neither sing nor


    dance. If it weren''t for her background in arts and her talent in acting, she doubted she would have


    been able to survive in the cutthroat entertainment industry.


    Macka closed her eyes, her mind drifting to the past filled with struggles, blood, and tears. She


    couldn''t help but feel fortunate that she had managed to make it through those tough times and


    catch up with the good times as things would only get difficult henceforth.


    Royal Entertainment operated in such a way that they would first recruit a group of trainees who


    would then pay fees to receive training.


    None of them could avoid paying for the sses, traveling, and cosmetics. Once a trainee made


    their debut and showed potential for stardom, thepany would shift its focus and allocate all


    avable resources to promote and capitalize on their sess. The remaining trainees,


    unfortunately, would often be neglected and overlooked, left to fend for themselves until they either


    gave up or chose to terminate their contracts with thepany. In such cases, thepany would


    make a profit from thepensation paid during contract termination, further adding to their gains.


    Having ovee the hardships of her past, Macka didn''t want to dwell on those difficult


    memories. She had managed to persevere and make a name for herself in the industry, but she


    never had hopes of bing a superstar.Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.
