Chapter 1370

"The big adventure of sincerity" is undoubtedly a very cruel reality show, but it also attracts people because of its reality. The ratings can be said to be very good.

However, because of the destructive power of this reality show, it has caused great controversy in the United States.

However, Andy doesn't care about these disputes. He never underestimates the public's psychology of spying on other people's privacy, and the melon eaters are never too big.

According to Nielsen's ratings survey report, there are 2300 viewers of the story, and the ratings are as high as 10.2%, which shows its popularity.

At the same time, according to AMC TV's survey feedback, although 90% of the audience said they would not participate in the program, but 100% said they would like to watch others very much.

In the face of the temptation of half a million dollars, all kinds of hidden secrets are exposed in broad daylight. The shortcomings of human type are exposed in front of the world. When questioning the moral bottom line of the program, we have to lament the complexity of human nature and the courage of contestants and guests.

In modern society, people have been used to lying. Telling the truth will not only make them lonely, but also destroy their lives, so they can't stand in the society.

"I've seen some media's doubts about the program. However, regardless of them, what is human nature? Self-protection is the innate nature of human beings. The truth out of nature is often evil, unacceptable and disappointing, so in order to survive in the world, people have to choose to whitewash...

Just like our new president, after he was elected, the so-called political correctness was immediately shaken. In the past, Bai people were the most important, and everyone shouted at him. But now, they are the most fierce. Ha ha, it's ridiculous. "

Andy looks very disdainful and says that pleplepler also has some helpless wry smile. Naturally, he knows that there are two premeditated assassinations of aoheiniu that have not been formally taken over. Three kdang starts to brag across the street. In some cities with serious discrimination problems, all kinds of slogans with attacking Xing are hung.

They talked about AMC TV again until the assistant knocked on the door and walked in.

"Boss, Mr. vettley is here."

"Well, let him in." Andy nodded, then stood up and shook hands with plepleplepler and said, "well, go back and continue to develop according to the plan. The merger with NBC global will not start so soon. Even though the merger, AMC is still AMC. Although it will be connected to the grid, it will not be integrated into NBC, so watch our TV station."

"I see, boss, I know what to do." When Mr. pleplepler heard the big boss's words, his doubts disappeared. He knew that AMC and NBC would still exist separately before the big boss completely controlled NBC global. Moreover, he is not without the NBC broadcast company CEO position covet.

As soon as pleplepler left the office, alvetti walked in and said to Andy, "boss, it's almost time. The downstairs reporter is here. The knights in black plan can start."

"Ha ha, let's go, let me officially open the curtain!"

Andy stood in front of the mirror and pulled down the hem of his suit, buttoned it up, smiled confidently, and walked out of the office first.

"Ding!"

When the elevator door opened, Andy came to the hall of Gaia building, which was already full of reporters. With his arrival, the originally noisy hall immediately sounded the sound of the shutter.

"I don't need to introduce myself. Thank you for your coming. The reason why I ask you to come here today is to announce something to the public

Andy stood in front of many reporters, in front of his recording pens, a pile of microphones appeared, with a smile on his face, and he continued without hesitation: "just now, I have 25% of Starbucks shares in my hands, from now on, I will officially send a comprehensive offer to the board of directors of Starbucks!"

"Wow --"

it's not because these reporters are ignorant and have never seen the world that Andy makes a fuss when he buys a company. The main reason for the uproar is that the company Andy bought is so special.

It's not because of the special operation, but because of the 20% shares of Starbucks that Andy said. It's really amazing. Everyone looks at Andy with shock and admiration.

Since 1992, Starbucks has been successfully listed on Nasdaq, and its shares can be publicly traded on the secondary market. A turning point has taken place in Starbucks' equity structure.

After that, the company carried out four 2-to-1 stock splits in 94, 96, 99 and 01 years respectively, which made the equity spread out at the fastest speed.

The reason why Starbucks will spread the equity information evenly in this way is that the management has the strength to intervene in the company's operation in order to prevent shareholders from holding too much shares.

In this way, the control of the company can always be in the hands of the top management, so as to preliminarily realize the separation of equity and corporate control.By 2003, Starbucks had more than 12000 shareholders, and it's hard to imagine that none of them held more than 3% of the shares.

This undoubtedly shows that Starbucks' equity has been completely dispersed, even the person who owns more than 0.5% of the company's equity can be regarded as a major shareholder, which makes the company's control right firmly in the hands of senior managers.

Now, Andy Smith says that he has 25% of the shares. Undoubtedly, he has become the largest shareholder since the IPO of Starbucks. At the same time, it also marks that the ownership structure of Starbucks has changed dramatically.

He has been able to rely on his identity as the largest shareholder to completely influence the operation of Starbucks. Moreover, he has been able to request the board of directors to hold a meeting as the largest shareholder to complete the shift snatching.

The crowd was shocked by Andy Smith's courage and patience. Today, Starbucks opened at $7.71, mainly because of the financial storm, as well as the continuous layoffs and shop closures.

In addition to purchasing stocks from the secondary market, it will undoubtedly take a long time to prepare for collecting the 25% shares. It will definitely take a lot of human and financial resources to negotiate with small shareholders and purchase from each other.

"Mr. Smith, you are already the largest shareholder. Why don't you join the board of Directors..."

"Mr. Smith, will you be chairman of Starbucks?"

"Mr. Smith, will Starbucks' reform be interrupted? Have you met Howard Schulz... "

"Everyone be quiet!"

Andy's face is calm, facing the excitement of the crowd, the reporters begin to ask all kinds of questions. Andy raises his voice, reaches out and makes a downward movement.

The scene soon calmed down, and he stared at himself for hundreds of times. Andy didn't care. He said with a smile: "as we all know, Starbucks's ownership structure is very decentralized and even. 3% owned by individuals is a major shareholder. Now I have 25% owned by individuals, and I'm the largest individual shareholder. However, it doesn't meet my requirements at all. I can only tell you , my acquisition of Starbucks is just the beginning! "

"Thank you. This is the conference. Thank you..."

After Andy finished speaking, he smiled and nodded at last with many reporters present, ignoring the reporters who were stopped by many bodyguards and security guards, shouting various questions, and turned to the elevator.

"Is there an appointment?" Andy asked the little assistant who was coming up.

"It's an appointment. The other side is very surprised, but very happy and looking forward to meeting the boss." The assistant hurried back.

"Well, let's go." Andy shows a smile of incomparable sunshine, and his eyes are twinkling.
