Chapter 632： I have seen everything before

The bald man is one of the most notorious corporate snipers of the United States in the 1980s, Ron Perelman. ...oh,

The Wall Street wolf quickly accumulated more than $1 billion in wealth during the acquisition boom of the 1980s. The most famous hostile takeover was the $150 million in the acquisition of Revlon Cosmetics, worth more than $1 billion. Because of its aggressive acquisitions, almost every acquisition will cause litigation.

However, since De Chong Securities, which was known for issuing junk bonds in 1990, because of a large number of debt defaults, the Ron Perelman, who is closely related to De Chong Securities, has begun to converge, but only It is superficial convergence. As a Wall Street wolf waiting for an opportunity to catch prey, its opportunistic nature is absolutely impossible to change.

Recently, Ron Perelman was keenly aware of another opportunity, so he quickly bought a $400 million long-term bond from the Firefly Group through Andrews Holdings, and contacted the Firefly Group’s internal winds. Two other important figures, Peter Schneider, director of the Disney Animation Department, and Roy Disney, who is also an art consultant at the Disney Animation Department and a member of the Disney family.

Peter Schneider heard Ron Perelman show off his private jet tone and envied his heart. He also decided to ask Eric Williams for the business of the Disney animation department in the next negotiation. .

Since the "Lion King" box office explosion, Peter Schneider has felt an unprecedented comfort in recent days.

In the past two years, Disney's hand-painted animation department, including his supervisor, has been fed up with the contempt of the group headquarters. The 2d animation they made was no worse than Pixar's 3D animation. Even the box office of several animations surpassed Pixar's two 3d animations. However, the treatment of the two departments is different. Pixar has a luxurious office park, but they can only squeeze into the dilapidated office building in Burbank. Pixar employees have a generous salary and dividends, and their average salary is less than 50,000 US dollars. Pixar's production budget is almost There is no limit, their departmental budget is very poor, Pixar is constantly expanding its scale, but they have to face the fate of being abolished.

all of these. There should be an account of it!

Peter Schneider once again hated to think of it, and couldn't help but imagine some scenes in the office where Eric Williams, who had put his own pigeons, was sitting.

With the current performance of "Lion King", both within the group and outside media, there is no doubt that this 2d animation will not only create an unprecedented box office miracle, but also easily earn for the Firefly Group in the next five years. More than $1 billion in net profit.

$1 billion, what is this concept!

I am afraid that the current profits generated by the two 3D animations that Pixar has produced will add up to one billion dollars.

Therefore, most people who are concerned about this windfighter do not believe that Eric Williams will continue to implement the original abolition and reform plan.

Although the Firefly Group’s external tone has remained unchanged on the original plan, Peter Schneider believes. Even stupid people can't abolish the production department that can produce more than $1 billion in animated films. The current situation is definitely a slow-moving plan for Eric Williams, only because of the arrogance of young people and the instinct of capitalists. Eric Williams must have realized a series of fatal mistakes he made against the Disney hand-drawn animation department, but he didn't want to pay too much compensation later to take this obvious delay.

However, Peter Schneider and Roy Disney, who think they have seen everything before, will never let Eric Williams, the greedy capitalist, succeed.

They have made up their minds, not only to get the treatment and salary they deserve, but also to give Eric Williams enough compensation, otherwise they will definitely let Eric Williams taste it. Losing the bitter fruit of the Disney animation department.

More than an hour after Ron Perelman’s luxury car arrived, he arrived at a holiday home in East Hampton.

Putting two guests into his study room, Ron Perelman smiled and took out the already prepared cigars and handed them to the two people. "Try it, this is the authentic roll on the thigh." Cuban cigars."

Peter Schneider and Roy Disney each took one, sniffed under the nose, and took cigar scissors and matches from Ron Perelman, and then they got up and enjoyed it. .

Ron Perelman also did the same thing, spitting a smoke circle comfortably, faintly said: "Unfortunately, this is just a cigar that has been crossed over the leg, not a real one. It is estimated that it can only be achieved. In the position of Eric Williams, you can enjoy countless places."

Peter Schneider snorted and dismissed: "Which is there in Hollywood."

Roy Disney, who is more old and heavier, heard Peter Schneider’s grievous complaint and frowned slightly.

If you are easily touched by the person in front of you, then they will definitely not benefit from the cooperation negotiations. From the beginning, Ron Perelman’s attitude has been very eager, even with a bit of pleasing, but Roy Disney is not stupid enough to think that the other is a good old man, the same as the Wall Street sniper in the 1980s. Sol Steinberg’s hostile takeover of Disney made Disney spend almost 200% of the price to redeem the shares in the other party. The reputation of this bald man is much worse than that of Sol Steinberg.

Once again, a light cigarette was spit out, and Roy Disney put down the cigar in his hand and said, "Mr. Perelman..."

"Ron, just call me Ron," Ron Perelman continued to smile with a pair of Maitreya Buddha gestures: "I think we will definitely become friends and partners next time."

Roy Disney didn't entangle the problem, saying: "Well, Ron, you should be clear, we are working with you to deal with our parent company. It is a kind of betrayal. If you don't pay attention, you may be swept away without getting anything. So, I And Peter needs to know all your plans, all. If you are hiding, the cooperation between our two parties will be cancelled immediately."

Ron Perelman did not immediately answer the question of Roy Disney, but instead said in a compliment: "Since the two are here, I think you must have formed an offensive and defensive relationship with all the employees of the Disney Animation Department. The Alliance, the Firefly Group will never be aware of this. In the current situation, even if they find that you are in contact with me, they will not be willing to fire you at the risk of breaking the anger."

Obviously, Ron Perelman agrees with most people that Eric Williams will not only abolish the hand-painted animation department, but will increase the pair in order to prevent this fat from falling into the hands of others. The strength of the hand-drawn animation department. Ron Perelman made a $400 million re-raise this time, and that's exactly what it is.

Roy Disney heard Ron Perelman say that he just smiled intriguedly.

Peter Schneider was smugly blurted out and said: "Of course, we..."

Fortunately, Peter Schneider was not a fool. He felt that Roy Disney suddenly kicked a few times on his lap and suddenly closed his mouth and stopped revealing more.

Ron Perelman has discovered at this time that if only Peter Schneider is alone, he will definitely be able to play this guy, but unfortunately Roy Disney is an old fox, he has to play ten The spirit of the two points, made a slight gesture, got up and walked to the file cabinet next to it, took out a prepared document and distributed it to the two people. "At this position, Andrews Holdings has mastered the firefly. The group's $400 million long-term bonds, so the firefly's performance will also affect the interests of our creditors. Although the firefly group has been very profitable in recent years, everyone knows that whether it is film business or television business, its The profit prospects are very unstable. In order to protect our own interests, we will never watch the shareholders who control the Firefly Group arbitrarily abolish or reform their lucrative business units."

Roy Disney ignored Ron Perelman’s seemingly outspoken words, but keenly grabbed a detail and asked, “What did you mean by saying ‘we’?”

Ron Perelman did not bend around and explained: "Of course, I have a lot of creditors of the Firefly Group."

Peter Schneider opened his mouth, but this time he did not rush. Roy Disney was not in a hurry to investigate what other creditors Ron Perelman said, reaching out to each other and saying, "OK, please continue."

"According to the information I got," Ron Perelman did not mind being interrupted and continued: "Next month will be the month when the Firefly Group released its first half of the financial report, because of the excellent earnings performance, Next month will also be the time for the Firefly Group's 80% dollar bond sales to be completed. By then, the total accumulated debt of the Firefly Group will reach 10 billion US dollars, equivalent to 30% of its total market value, for the principal and interest of this 10 billion US dollars of huge debt. The repayment was fully guaranteed..." Ron Perelman paused, and the expression of the oily face suddenly became a bit of a fever, slowly saying his ultimate goal: "I hope that at that time, all creditors will unite Publicly pressured the Firefly Group and entered the Firefly Board as a creditor."
