Chapter 217： Jeffrey Cassenberg’s calculations

On the morning of October 19, the mountains were smeared with a soft milky white, and the white mist rendered everything hazy and psychedelic. Located in West Hollywood’s Tianwu Pictures, Yang Cheng lying listlessly in David Ellison’s office On my sofa, one hand is covered by the sun, and the other hand is holding a mobile phone and boringly flirting with Sunny.

Early this morning, Yang Cheng was woken up by David Ellison’s phone call and asked him to meet at the company. It is said that Jeffery responded to the quotation of New Era Media. The business is now, and Yang Cheng has no attention. The little brother on the top of the column Qingtian drove over.

Speaking of this, I feel aggrieved. Originally, according to the atmosphere of last night, Yang Cheng and Sunny took advantage of Jiuxing to go to Wushan and Yunyu is a matter of course. But when they came out of the bar, Sunny's mother called and urged her. Going home to see, Sunny can't bear to see Yang Cheng being lonely and deliberately rejecting, but Yang Cheng can't do that. Their daughters are all at the door of the house, can't you learn Dayu's water management and come to the house for three times without entering?

The fiery heat of the lower abdomen was forced to send Sunny home. Yang Cheng suspected that this was Li Xiuman's revenge against him, or why was it so coincidental that her mother called her the day after Sunny returned to Los Angeles? Yang Cheng never believed in coincidences.

Okay, without mentioning this, my heart is full of tears.

I waited in Ellison’s office for about 5 minutes, and there was a noise outside the door. You don’t need to guess that it was the boss of Tianwu Pictures, because no one rushed to make a noise in front of his office except David Ellison, this guy. Usually it is not serious, but it is unique in managing the company.

"Jason, sorry, have you waited a long time?" David Ellison pushed in and took the cold coffee that Yang Orange hadn't moved on the coffee table and took a bite into his stomach. "Fuck, I'm so thirsty."

"Are you just coming back from Africa?" Yang Cheng laughed mercilessly at David Ellison, who was in ragged clothes at this time. It is not an exaggeration. The originally very expensive blond hair was messy and his shirt was stained with different stains. There are coffee, soil, uh~ it seems there is pasta sauce.

David Ellison slumped on the sofa dejectedly and waved his hand, "Don't mention it, I had a fight with Dakota Johnson's boyfriend."

Yang Cheng was taken aback, and gossip started in an instant. The reason why happiness is called happiness is based on the pain of others. For example, you are richer than others, you are handsomer than others, you are more talented than others, and your girlfriend’s Qiu Da waited, "What's the situation? She still has a boyfriend?"

"Nonsense, it's worth wondering if a beautiful girl doesn't have a boyfriend?" David Ellison complained very uncomfortably. It was obvious that Yang Cheng asked a question that seemed idiotic to him.

Yang Cheng was not polite, and immediately replied, "It deserves it, who told you not to be fully prepared before picking up a girl? There must be some investigations? What a shame!"

David Ellison looked sullen. It was obvious that Yang Cheng was on the point. This time he really took it lightly. He didn't do any investigation and killed him stubbornly. Fighting with people is light, but when you encounter a hot temper. It is not impossible to pull out the gun directly.

"Wait, where's your bodyguard? What's the source of the other party? Did you solve all your bodyguards?" Yang Cheng suddenly wondered. It stands to reason that David Ellison is accompanied by 3-5 bodyguards all year round, there are bright and dark, training. Will they just watch the boss being bullied?

Yang Cheng’s question made David Ellison, who had lowered his head and dared not face it, became more reluctant to look up, and murmured embarrassedly, "Didn’t I distract them all to pick up girls?"

Fortunately, Yang Cheng's listening online, did not miss this paragraph that was enough to make him laugh for half a year, "Wow~ David, why didn't I find you so funny?"

"Fuck off, I won't give up! Still talking about business?" David Ellison threw a pillow at Yang Cheng in anger.

"OK, OK, just talk about business, how did Jeffrey reply?" Yang Cheng took a few deep breaths, stopped smiling, and said in a serious tone.

David Ellison rolled his eyes and put away his laughter and cursing, "Jeffrey’s original words are: Thank you for the offer from New Times Media. This is a very sincere price, but can I see yours? determination?"

Yang Cheng raised his eyebrows, rubbed his chin, and murmured, "What does Jeffery mean?"

David Ellison thought he was asking him, spreading his hands, "I don't know, maybe I'm not satisfied with the price?"

"No, no, with Jeffery's urinary nature, I am afraid he wants to complete this merger by way of share swap." Yang Cheng guessed thoughtfully.

"Share swap? With New Times Media? His appetite is not small." David Ellison sarcastically said in a bad tone.

"It's normal. Compared with the one-time cash, holding the shares of New Times Media is more in the long-term interests. It can also leave a valuable legacy for the family. I will try my best to fight for it." Disgusting emotions, businessmen are insatiable, and if they can ask you for more, they will definitely cost 50 cents.

"So you agree?" David Ellison asked suspiciously.

Yang Cheng sneered, "How is it possible? If Jeffery is willing to condescend to New Times Media and continue to be in charge of the animation department, maybe I will consider giving him a part of the equity, but this old guy didn't deal with Michael Eisner back then, and now he will obey willingly. I’m a young man in the management? Don’t worry, I’m looking for an opportunity to meet him, some things can only be analyzed in person. Softbank and Hasbro have already withdrawn?"

David Ellison was a bit unable to keep up with the rhythm, raised his hand and pressed it in the air, returned to the desk, pressed the call, asked the secretary to bring in two cups of coffee again, and replied, "According to my Yes, they just wanted to pick up the leak. We raised the price to $27, which obviously exceeded their expectations."

Soon, Ellison’s blond secretary delivered two cups of good coffee. Although it was not freshly ground coffee beans, it was mellow and delicious. One drink was not ordinary. David Ellison did not shy away, in front of Yang Cheng. A slap on the secretary's hip, making the secretary amused with a shy look, charmingly glanced at Yang Cheng and trot out, closing the office door.

Yang Cheng took a sip of coffee speechlessly, and continued to ask, "In this way, our current opponents are only Disney, Comcast, Wall Street Consortium and the Wan Da Group in Country Z, right?"

"That's right, Disney and Comcast are our main opponents, and their determination is stronger." David Ellison gave a positive answer.

"No, I met with Donna Rand from Universal yesterday. Her analysis makes sense. Disney already has a Pixar studio. The acquisition of DreamWorks is undoubtedly a waste of resources. This is the cunning fox of Robert Iger. Wouldn't it be clear?" Yang Cheng explained the analysis of Donna Lande yesterday.

Drinking coffee and continued, "So I agree with Donna’s analysis. Robert Iger just wants to act as a shit-chucking stick to muddy the water and mess up the situation. Of course, if there is a chance to win DreamWorks, he will not back down. Potential enemies are strangled in the cradle and contribute to Disney's dominance."

David Ellison fell into deep thought, "So, can we exclude Disney?"

Yang Orange shook his head and vetoed, "Of course not, we must not relax with Disney. After all, this is just our guess. The real decision is not in our hands. We must beware of accidents, but we can also focus more on Kang For Custer, this is our direct opponent, no matter which one of us obtains DreamWorks Animation, we are all even more powerful."

"Okay, then what should we do?" David Ellison chose to give up thinking. He is still suitable for making movies. He is still not interested in business wars. If he changes to his crazy father, things will be interesting. What Comcast or Disney, just spray it.

"We still have to find a way to draw out Comcast's bottom line. Secondly, we have to take the initiative to do something to let the balance in Jeffery's heart lean toward us." Yang Orange also has no specific implementation plan, but can only vaguely propose a general idea. .

"Actually, I think Jeffery still has hope for DreamWorks' independence." Of course, David Ellison is not a useless person. He calmed down and thought about it for a moment and gave a new perspective.

Yang Cheng was taken aback, he also wanted to change his mind, "Tell me."

"Have you heard of this project? It is an animated blockbuster led by Jeffery and given high expectations by DreamWorks." David Ellison has always been responsible for collecting information on competitors and acquisition targets, so he has a lot of news at hand. Yang Cheng didn't know.

"I don't know, is it a sequel?" Yang Cheng guessed confusedly.

"No, but it was created by the original team. Jeffery regarded it as a turnaround to restore the decline of DreamWorks. If the box office of this movie reaches expectations, then DreamWorks’ long-troubled funding problems will be greatly alleviated. It is not impossible to give Jeffery some time to breathe and lead DreamWorks to the top."

The news provided by David Ellison attracted the attention of Yang Cheng. Jeffrey Carsonborg is a man who is good at creating miracles. He moved from Paramount to Disney when he worked for 11 years and was in charge of the Disney animation department. At the same time as countless classics, it also earned huge expansion funds for Disney.

Then he resolutely retired from the Disney Rapids and chose to start from scratch with Spielberg and David Geffen. In fact, in the peak years of DreamWorks, the annual revenue was comparable to the top six and even ranked among the top six. Among the top five, Jeffrey Carsenberg contributed a lot.

No one can ignore such talents at will.

Yang Cheng had previously wondered how such a strong and individual Jeffrey Cassenberg could sell his efforts so easily, and Jeffrey’s reply to the quotation of New Times Media. Now he wants to understand. , It turned out to be one hand and two hands ready for calculation. . .
