That night, Harvey got up and left with a big belly. Bob apologized, nodded and smiled to Songya and Linton, and followed his brother's footsteps.
Linton watched the back of the Weinstein brothers disappear, and then looked at the black Pharaoh around him. He was a little strange. On the eve of the award season in previous years, everyone would always get together like today for private blending. According to common sense, Harvey will always take the initiative to pester the black law old man to persuade him to invest in this and that. The black law old man will take the opportunity to lobby the king of awards for his women. Whether it can be done or not, at least the atmosphere of laughter will not be bad.
Today, especially after the black law and Harvey found a place to talk privately, both sides on the table began to feel depressed, and the temperature seemed to be a few degrees lower.
Linton took the bill from the waiter, signed it and asked, "what's the matter with you?"
"Nothing."
It's just that she still can't talk about MJ. Songya doesn't want to talk about this with Linton who doesn't know it. She wipes her mouth, throws her napkin on the table and asks, "what's the matter with the documentary project you talked about at dinner?"
"Harvey and Lions Gate CO produced a 9 / 11 documentary, which his majesty didn't like and refused to let Disney help release," Linton replied.
"Has Mr. Eisner ever asked such a little thing?" Sonya asked again.
"It's different. Next year is another election year."
Linton participated in the film review and knew what the purpose of Harvey's conspiracy theory documentary called Fahrenheit 911 was, but he didn't want to talk more, "let's go, too."
"Yes."
It's not a pity that they didn't win over the Weinstein brothers. After all, Harvey's reputation is not good. Even if he patted his chest and promised to join the partnership today, they don't dare to give full trust.
“APLUS。”
When breaking up in the parking lot, Linton thought for a moment or kindly reminded: "Harvey plays a great role in the public opinion front of the donkey party... And it will be bigger and bigger."
"I know."
Of course Songya knew this, "thanks. What do you say tomorrow?"
"Catherine and his wife of KM film, can you..."
"OK, I'll make an appointment."
"They have a good relationship with George Lucas of industrial light and magic."
"I'll try."
In the following Los Angeles time, Songya continued to run for Linton's help, and met a large number of people together, including the vice president of 10 billion billionaire jiadinis, and most of the invitees would give face to attend the appointment.
November 18, 2003.
"Santa Barbara's prosecutors once again entered Neverland to search. District attorney snyden said they had enough evidence to issue an arrest warrant for MJ... Seven counts of child molestation and two counts of drug abuse."
ACN station used a helicopter to take a panoramic aerial view of the Neverland where a large number of police cars, police officers and media gathered. In the TV screen lit up in the bedroom, police officers holding cartons are walking out of the gate of the mansion.
"MJ's authorized lawyer, trust messiro, who stayed in Las Vegas with three children, held a press conference. Messiro denied all the charges against MJ... Messiro helped boxer Mike Tyson successfully drop the rape charges in 2001."
"We also interviewed MJ's brother..."
"MJ's sister, diva, Jenny Jackson..."
The whole thing is just like the original copy of the case ten years ago, but a lot of things have changed after ten years. Black barrister Cochran is seriously ill. MJ has newly saved a dream lawyer group led by barrister Thomas messiro. Although messiro is white, he has a good reputation and chooses him according to the rules.
MJ also united his relatives better than ten years ago. All "Jackson" supported him and protested against persecution.
Song Ya loosened her hands holding the wrist of the girl who was crying loudly in front of her, focused on the relevant reports of her own media, and didn't look back until the mobile phone rang.
Jessica Alba, a 22-year-old Hollywood star who became famous by starring in the last black angel series of truck drivers. She has a sweet smile, golden wheat skin and beautiful figure. At this time, she is in the empty window after breaking up with her ex boyfriend.
However, the girl's character is not as "independent" and "free and easy" as Scarlett, and she has more scheming. It seems that she is not a good friendly match object. Songya regrets that she flirts with each other.
"What?"
Despite the beauty lying there panting, twitching and unconscious nonsense, Songya went into the bathroom and closed the door to answer Linton's call.
"Let's start here." Linton called just to inform.
"OK, I'll wait for your news."
At Disney headquarters, Linton hung up the phone and hurried a few steps to follow his majesty into the conference room. Today is the expanded meeting of the board of directors. Therefore, in addition to his vice chairman and a group of directors, all the heads of the branches of Disney's huge empire were present as nonvoting delegates.
Today was a big scene. The emperor stood domineering before taking his seat at the top of the long table, glanced around all his faces, and Linton also observed silently in the seat next to him.
Roy, who has been keeping his eyes closed, and those who support the only child of the Disney family, sat opposite, completely different from the royalists.
The key figure, Robert egger of ABC department, chose to sit on the far side. He seemed to want to show his neutrality. George Mitchell, the former Senate majority leader and independent director with a relatively detached status, sat at the top of the opposite. Today, he didn't seem to want to get involved.
The black Pharaoh, who does not have a Disney stock and is not directly under the leadership of the branch, is not eligible to attend the meeting,
Similarly, jobs, who only sold Pixar Animation for release, will not show up. Harvey Weinstein, who sold Miramax to Disney, naturally, the fat man who was not liked by the emperor, knew himself very well and sat at the far end. On George Mitchell's side, they were talking in a low voice.
How to give full play to the energy of this media giant to participate in politics, Disney generally gives tacit agreement to the former boss of the donkey party. Naturally, he and Harvey have "business" contacts.
It seems that everything is normal. It is a good day to fight a decisive battle. "Don't waste time, let's start." after his majesty officially announced, he sat down: "the first agenda today is..."
"Disney has begun."
Steve Jobs in Silicon Valley told his close friend, Oracle founder Larry Ellison, after receiving a text message.
He, a technology hero, looked at another person present: Little Roberts, chairman of Comcast.
"It's starting over there."
In Manhattan, Goldman Sachs chairman Paulson just put down his mobile phone. "How much Disney stock do we have now?" he asked his men.
"If Roy gets kicked out of the board today, we'll continue to absorb," he ordered after getting a number.
"Last agenda..."
The undercurrent surged outside, but there were no waves in the conference room until Eisner read: "about modifying the age limit of board members..."
Everyone's eyes are on Roy Disney.
Roy, who always showed himself in a low-key and talkative image, opened his eyes and faced his Majesty's eyes without letting him go.
Eisner sniffed, "I think this rule is conducive to maintaining the vitality of the board of directors without modification. What do you think? Roy..."
coming!
His majesty looked at the others in the conference room. Everyone took back their eyes, eyes, nose and heart.
Only a few senior executives who thought they were only going to go through a procedure today looked up in surprise and looked blankly.
"Then start voting." Eisner was very satisfied with his control.
"Wait!"
Roy suddenly stopped. "Before voting, I want to say a word."
"Yes." Eisner doesn't want to be too stingy, but also wants to see what splashes can be thrown up by the old man who has been suppressed by himself all his life. It's best to take advantage of the situation to find out some internal traitors who are in contact with Roy's conspiracy.
"Dear colleagues."
Roy was obviously ready. He got up and took out a speech from his pocket. "If we start from the EVOX Disney commercial art company, my family and I have served this company for more than 80 years..."
"Today, I think we must make changes. Personally, I am very grateful to Mr. Eisner for his efforts and services for the company for many years, but for a new century, I think we need more adaptable management talents to help us run the company. In the Internet industry... We invested a lot, but to be honest, we failed..."
Roy followed Kirch, the Infoseek founder, who was shrinking in the crowd. He was signalled by the Internet Co leader who was bought. Disney smashed countless money to them, but he lost a pair of trousers after the Internet bubble burst.
"I'm seventy-two years old. I'm old. I don't miss whether I can continue to serve as a director. But, Michael, you're in your sixties and in good health... I'm sorry to say that. You're no better than me."
He looked at his majesty and said, "I think it's time for us to let go and give power to the young man, Michael..."
"I don't remember today about my agenda, Roy."
Want to play extreme one for one with me!? I didn't expect you to dare?!
His Majesty was furious and spoke in a cold tone.
"Just add an agenda, which will be announced at the shareholders' meeting next year."
It seemed that Roy had made up his mind to fight back. "Today..." he looked at Robert egger in the distance.
His Majesty was alarmed and followed his eyes.
Robert egger had widened his eyes and seemed very surprised at Roy's doing so. He quickly expressed his loyalty to his Majesty in fear.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Disney. According to the procedure, we won't discuss anything outside the scheduled agenda today."
Linton hurriedly shared his worries with the Lord.
Unexpectedly, he was glared at by his majesty, who seemed to be dissatisfied that someone in our party was timid in public.
"OK, I see."
Roy didn't bother. "In short, if you vote me out of the board of directors today, I will resign from all positions in the company and leave the company completely. Think about it for yourself."
He looked at his majesty again, "Michael, it's a pity that our relationship has come to this step..."
"Ha!"
Eisner was happy instead. Wouldn't it be better? "Do you really want to do this? Roy, today we are just discussing the fate of the members of the board of directors. I have no opinion on your contribution to managing the animation company. Don't regret..."
"In short, please be careful with your voting rights." Roy Disney ignored him. "Don't let Disney continue to be a greedy, soulless company that goes against its original heart..." after that, he sat down.
"Shall we start voting?" asked the board secretary.
"Why don't we take a break and give us some time to think?" George Mitchell suddenly opened his mouth, and then accepted the emperor's insidious eyes.
Harvey quickly moved his fat body away from George Mitchell to express his loyalty.
Linton, caught off guard, looked at his majesty.
"Yes."
Eisner's expression did not change. He nodded and agreed. When he got up, he added to Roy: "don't forget that the market value of this company without soul in your mouth has risen from 2 billion to more than 40 billion meters under my leadership in the past 20 years."
He was the first to leave the meeting room.
Unexpectedly, the war expanded like the name of the enlarged meeting. He was a little annoyed at the decline of his control, but soon returned to business as usual. At the same time, he also needed to use this space as a cheerleader. He chose to continue to maintain the strength of the emperor and asked his confidants to call Roy's senior management to the office one by one.
All kinds of people left the conference room while chatting slowly, but as soon as they were out of the sight of others, they immediately formed a small circle to discuss, or picked up their mobile phones to find a place to fight quietly.
"The emperor's mind skill is used too much. It's like this."
Song Ya received Layton's call after he had wasted time, Tucao: "a person who still can't let go before heart surgery, lock the successor list into the safe, and drive Katzenberg and UV's control freak, Robert and Robert make complaints about the bones he throws out."
"What's the use of saying this now? There's a smell of conspiracy today. If Roy, Robert egger and George Mitchell join hands, I'm afraid the emperor will fall over. Call... Aplus." Linton urged: "can you meet some of their requirements appropriately?"
"All right."
Songya also knew that time was pressing and immediately called the key figures of Bowei film, Touchstone film and Disney Records who had a good relationship and Linton was inconvenient to find one by one.
"Roy, that fool chose to betray Robert egger!"
In Silicon Valley, Larry Ellison hung up the phone and said irritably: "but it has to be a pretty hand. Robert egger began to fear whether he could continue to survive under the power of the suspicious Disney emperor after today. In order to protect himself, we had to bind him more tightly... If we don't fight back, we will start ahead of time?"
"Is there enough votes?" jobs asked.
"Not enough, unless George Mitchell rebelled together," his men calculated on the wall of a picture of all the participants.
They looked at little Roberts again. Little Roberts shook his head without saying a word from beginning to end.
"Don't look at me. I have a bad relationship with George."
As one of the few conservatives in Silicon Valley, Oracle founder Larry Ellison shrugged and refused to take the initiative to contact the former boss of the donkey party.
Jobs had to do it himself.
"No."
Little Roberts suddenly held down the microphone he picked up. "George Mitchell can't wait for Robert egger to jump out now. Steve, there's no point in making this call."
"I don't want Roy, Harvey."
In Manhattan, Paulson said after lying in the boss's chair for a long time: "it's not as good for us for the Disney family to stay there as Eisner. At least Eisner has no boring extra emotional sustenance for the Disney company itself."
"But there is no real crown prince in Eisner's power maniac's heart. He will still raise his guard against me after today," Harvey said.
"At least now he must win over George and let George talk to him and ask for some benefits first." Paulson smiled. "I don't believe he's not a little flustered."
"He still refused to make complaints about George's price at that time." Harvey Tucao said, "the emperor only gives and gives."
"Haha, that's good. Let's show our attitude regardless of him." Paulson laughed. "In short, this accident is good for us."
"Well, he's back in the conference room."
"Voting is about to begin."
"They're in."
The news came out of Disney headquarters through various channels. Songya didn't know that she was waiting for the final result in front of the phone like all the big guys from all over the world.
"Now start voting on the provisions on Amending the age limit of board members..."
Linton took a deep breath and personally read out: "raise your hand to agree, now start voting." then the first raised his hand.
The royalists raised their hands one after another, and the executives of Bowei film, Disney Records and touchstone film also raised their hands one after another.
Roy put his hands on his chest and naturally wouldn't raise his hands. None of his group had raised their hands for the time being.
Eisner himself didn't. he scanned the audience and didn't want to miss every detail.
George Mitchell also raised his hand when he looked at him, and Harvey and others nearby also raised their hands.
Robert egger, with a dignified face, had to raise his hand, and his ABC Department followed.
Eisner was relieved. At the same time, he was secretly wary of the flow of power within the company and began to plan a solution.
At this point, some directors around Roy, Disney animation and high-level studios have also turned against him without psychological burden.
Roy closed his eyes painfully.
"Since the amendment motion was not passed, the age limit of 72 year old board members remained unchanged, so..." the Secretary of the board of directors who counted the votes read out the results.
"Anyway, let's pay tribute to Roy's years of hard work."
Eisner stood up, sneered and led everyone to applaud Roy Disney, and then pretended to be concerned and asked, "the company still needs you, Roy. I think... Since you are very dissatisfied with our failure in the Internet field, how about managing the newly established disney.com website?"
"I quit, but I won't give up, Michael."
Roy did not respond to the humiliating offer and left the meeting room alone after leaving a word.
"Robert." Eisner then motioned Robert egger to go out with him, "don't mind Roy's bad separation tricks..."
"Roy's phone..." Larry Ellison handed the microphone to jobs.
"Don't give up Roy. Now we need you to start stirring up public opinion. You don't have to wait too long." without any complaints, jobs continued to cheer up Roy Disney.
“YES!”
Songya, who just hung up Linton and called, is already waving his fist to celebrate. He doesn't care about anything else. It's most important to get rid of Roy Disney with the support of jobs!
This means that the rear is completely safe!
