Chapter 1483

February 14, 2004.

The dark room echoed with men and women eating and laughing. Jennifer lovehewitt turned her face and secretly rolled her eyes. Then she walked away with her hands touching the TV remote control.

"The Federal Communications Commission issued a ticket to CBS, the broadcaster of the super bowl, and called on Congress to enact a bill to avoid erotic behavior on all age television as soon as possible..."

Song Ya was distracted by the news broadcast and the light on the small screen. She stopped Laura lemsy in her arms and looked at the white girl who was looking for clothes. She couldn't help recalling that she seemed to be a minor when she first met in her early years. She didn't expect "yes!"

On the 15th, on the last day before the Disney board meeting, Disney's share price opened low, and then went all the way down. Little Roberts, chairman of Comcast, waved his fist excitedly. Although Comcast was also falling, "now investors are betting on the psychological price of shareholders on both sides. If it's less than 60 billion, tomorrow we can" you can calm down... "

"I'm just like this, I'm just like this. I'm sorry, Mr. Roberts. That's my character... No way. But don't forget that my station and I have accompanied you Comcast from small to large to today!"

Little Roberts was so noisy that his ears hurt that he had to pull the microphone away.

Old Roberts sat holding his forehead and sighed gently.

"Action is very strong..."

Manhattan, Paulson turned a blind eye to Tucao: "Eisner make complaints about second days after receiving the offer, and then he made a timely quarterly report. Jobs still charged before the sixteen, and then APLUS turned around and looked for other cable operators."

"Where are we?" asked Harvey at the other end of the phone.

"George Mitchell is old and doesn't know business, so we have only one goal, the position of chairman, so..."

"Michael, now everyone is asking, especially when the stock price was at the high point yesterday, when you opened a board of directors, 60 billion, can you kick the ball back to Comcast?"

George Mitchell is an independent director. He didn't have a meeting until tomorrow. Before the noon break, Disney's share price fell below 26. He suddenly visited Eisner's office, "now, what about the board of directors tomorrow? I can't help you."

"What the hell are you trying to say, George?" Eisner asked impatiently. "I have a lot to do!"

He is frantically calling institutional shareholders and financial institutions such as American Jewish pension fund and California Civil Service Fund to seek all life-saving straws.

"As Robert egger said yesterday, we must do everything possible to keep jobs's Pixar Animation, otherwise the market value of a maliciously acquired company will be less than the other party's offer... Who can afford this responsibility?"

"I'll resign and you'll be the chairman?" Eisner asked angrily, "anyway, I'm the one who asked jobs to leave."

"It's a good way, Michael. I'm about to retire from the board at the age of seven or twelve. We've worked together for so many years. Our wife and children are close like a family. First unite to get through this difficulty, and then... Everything is yours."

George Mitchell hit the snake with the stick and persuaded him to retreat. I don't know how many times a senior politician has done this, and his face is even less valuable. "Now the time is good..." he took out a note from his arms and put it on the table, "or you write down the number you're thinking about, and I swear to do it."

"Ha!"

Is this the price for severance pay? Eisner was not surprised. He pushed the note back with a sneer. "Then I ask you, what can you do with jobs' Pixar stay, aplus's a + entertainment, a + records and metropolis records?"

"Er..."

George Mitchell was stunned. "There's always a way..."

Then the phone rang, "boss, he will go." it was Linton's voice.

"Sorry, I have something else to do."

Hoo! Eisner felt all the pressure in his body disappear in an instant, got up, roughly pushed away George Mitchell and strode out of the door.

"Click, click..."

Followed by endless joy filled his chest, which almost killed him. He only heard the echo of his footsteps in the corridor. He was dizzy. He leaned against the wall and hurriedly took out quick-acting heart-saving medicine and put it in his mouth.

"Bang!"

Songya was hunting in John Malone's private forest. He pulled the trigger and the wild ducks flew around, but he didn't see anything.

"I'll answer the phone, Linton?" Songya took out her vibrating mobile phone and motioned to John Malone, who was hunting together, and then walked to the secluded place with one ear tucked.

"Here he is."

"OK..." Song Ya smiled, put away his cell phone and went back.

"And work?" John Malone asked.

"No, little things."

"You have to practice more, aplus..." John Malone smiled.

"When Disney returns to Comcast, I will have a lot of time to practice."

"Ha ha ha!"

"Where's Eisner?" Paulson asked George Mitchell in Manhattan, wondering that there was no middleman Harvey this time.

"I don't know. Now it's OK. The careful fat man will certainly retaliate after passing the customs." George Mitchell also wondered.

"Hello, Mr. Eisner."

"Hello, bill."

In Los Angeles, at the roadshow of a small cooperative activity already planned by Disney copyright company and Microsoft's MSN department, Eisner strode to welcome the world's richest man who showed a harmless smile to himself: Bill Gates.

In the dazed reporters' shutter sound, their hands were tightly held together.

Disney shares rose sharply.

"This damn thing again."

Jobs cursed and closed his eyes for a while. "Now we can only see Comcast himself."

"According to our closing price on the 28th of yesterday, the value of Comcast's original stock exchange plan is $66 billion, so... 54 billion? 54 billion? Huh? Huh?"

On the 16th, Eisner opened his hands at the Disney board of directors and easily said to the directors, "I don't have to say what choice to make?"

The directors laughed, and George Mitchell laughed bitterly.

"Today, Disney's board of directors rejected Comcast's $54 billion hostile M & a request on the grounds that the price was too low. It is reported that the Disney board of directors made this decision after hiring Bear Stearns to conduct detailed consultation and evaluation on the acquisition... "

"Will Comcast recover the premium commitment of 16 billion Li and 12 billion yuan to bear Disney's debt?"

"After this week, Disney's new market value is likely to deter other bidders..."

"Upstarts seem to find that they can't afford to marry snow white..."

"Disney Emperor..."

After a few days of the acquisition war, my share price fell from nearly $34 to 31.2 at the close of business, not counting the ammunition and contacts played by the company and family

Roberts and his son carried it for two days without any response to Disney's refusal, but on the 18th, it will open again tomorrow Monday, so we must say something.

Little Roberts sighed and asked his father, "shall we hold on to their shareholders' meeting early next month?"

"It's too messy. Too many foxes want to use us."

Old Roberts shook his head. "Give up. It's time to stop the loss in time."

"OK, but it's really unpleasant..."

Little Roberts shrugged. "But forget it, it's always like this. Win or lose..." he pressed the phone and "send in the prepared speech."

"Those who disgrace our family must pay the price," old Roberts reminded his son.

"I know."

Later, Eisner was drawing against the list of Disney directors and senior executives such as George Mitchell and Robert egger in the document in front of him. He suddenly realized that the time had come. He turned on the TV and Comcast held the press conference on time.

"After careful consideration, the board of directors of Comcast decided to give up the acquisition of Disney..." little Roberts said calmly.

"Huh?" Eisner stopped writing and frowned.

"As chairman, I must apologize to all shareholders and investors. I am willing to bear all responsibilities..."

"In fact, I privately asked Disney Chairman Mr. Eisner about the acquisition intention in January and got his positive feedback. I didn't expect Disney's resistance to be so fierce..."

When Eisner heard this, the accumulated smile on his face disappeared in an instant.
