The TVTropes Trope Finder is where you can come to ask questions like "Do we have this one?" and "What's the trope about...?" Trying to rediscover a long lost show or other medium but need a little help? Head to Media Finder and try your luck there. Want to propose a new trope? You should be over at the Trope Launch Pad.
I think that's just how bargaining works. Both sides involved in a deal make an offer of what they consider acceptable, and negotiate their offer until the everyone agrees to the deal. I didn't watch the video you provided, but from your description there wasn't any kind of duress involved to force one party to submit, such as blackmail or threat of violence. It was just a normal deal where both parties negotiated by saying what they wanted. In that regard, it could be considered People Sit on Chairs since this is what is expected of any bargaining process. "MJ and Gordy make a deal" is no more of a trope than "MJ and Gordy sit on chairs."

Asked this some time ago, but never got an answer, so let's try again:
In the second half of the miniseries The Jacksons: An American Dream Berry Gordy, founder of Motown, is shown trying to convince Michael Jackson to participate in Motown's 25th anniversary telecast with his brothers. MJ, though tired of making TV appearances at that point, eventually agrees to join, but only if he was given a solo performance slot to perform "Billie Jean".
Now, exactly what bargaining/deal trope would this fall under? I've checked most of the bargaining tropes, but they don't seem to fit this situation. (For reference, here's the scene in question
)
