Recently, a news about a female college student being claimed 80 million yuan by the Douyu live broadcast platform has attracted widespread attention. This incident not only involves breach of contract, settlement and legal disputes, but also exposes the problems behind the live broadcast industry and the infringement of the rights and interests of young anchors. As a veteran news blogger, it is necessary for me to uncover the truth of this incident and its far-reaching implications.
In 2020, the Douyu live broadcast platform sued a number of female college student anchors for breach of contract on the grounds that the live broadcast time was insufficient, and the claim amount was as high as 80 million yuan. Many of these female college students are acting students who are currently studying and have signed a commentary cooperation agreement with Douyu. What is shocking is that in the next 3 years, the claims of Douyu and its parent company, Wuhan Ouyue NetTV***, are still continuing.
One of them, a post-95 female college student named Luo Li, became the focus. As a student of the performance department of a 985 college, Luo Li was originally full of longing for the future.
After signing a contract with Douyu, she faced huge pressure from live broadcasting, and even because of her illness, she didn't dare to confide in her family. On November 25, 2020, Luo Li received a lawyer's letter from Beijing Dacheng Law Firm, telling her that she needed to compensate Douyu 80 million yuan.
Luo Li's case is not an isolated case, and in recent years, the rise of the online live streaming industry has brought a number of legal disputes. As a well-known live broadcast platform in China, why is Douyu so heavy-handed to an ordinary anchor?Is the compensation amount of 80 million reasonable rights protection or malicious extortion?We can't help but ask, can the anchor only be slaughtered in front of the platform?
Looking back on Luo Li's experience, her live broadcast career in Douyu is not long, and her income is very limited. According to her own account and the flow records provided,She earns less than 200,000
The so-called huge benefits provided by Betta are based on a figure that is difficult to verify. Whether the settlement amount of Guild Little Elephant Mutual Entertainment is true and reasonable is a question worth going deeper.
Contract disputes on the Douyu platform often involve complex interests and legal gaps. For many young streamers, they often lack sufficient legal knowledge and awareness, and are prone to fall into contract traps. And Douyu, as the platform party, why didn't Douyu treat these young anchors more transparently and fairly in terms of contract terms?
Faced with Betta's claim, Lori felt hopeless and helpless. She couldn't understand why she had to bear such a huge price for someone else's mistakes. In the past three years, she has lost too much because of this contract, and even gave birth because of itTwice seriously ill, had to take a leave of absence。Her experience is heartbreaking, and it also makes people think: Is it possible that an ordinary person can only choose to compromise and back down when facing the pressure of a large platform?was claimed by Betta Fish for 80 million women, and earned less than 200,000 in 3 years
