The Best Entertainment Era
Eight hundred and ninetieth eighth chapter door to buy
Hello, Mr. Anderson.
In the reception room, a white man who was older than Ronan smiled and introduced himself: I am Taraves Knight from Lycra Animation Studios. Your production company Shahai Entertainment has contacted me. It is very exciting. Sadly, Transformers chose Michael Bay to direct.
Hearing this person's self-introduction, Ronan immediately understood who he was, shook hands and said, I let Shahai Entertainment contact you, I thought you would be a good director choice, but then Michael Bay joined , I can only make a choice.”
Taraves Knight did not have those inexplicable emotions, his mind is generally clearer: Compared to Michael Bay, I am really not convincing in terms of directing.
Ronan smiled and asked, I don't know if you came to see me today, what's the matter?
It seems that apart from Transformers, Relativity Entertainment has nothing to do with Travis Knight. This Nike prince, a veritable super rich second generation, should not come to him because of his career as a director.
Travis Knight replied: I am a shareholder of Disney, a very small one. I got the equity from my father. I didn't pay attention to Disney before, until these disputes about Disney happened recently. .”
He smiled and said, I also know something about Disney's situation. Mr. Anderson, you have some shares in Disney. It seems that you are supporting Michael Eisner?
Ronan said calmly, I want to protect the investment interests of Relativity Entertainment.
I've always been interested in investing in big Hollywood companies, said Travis Knight.
Ronan asked: Do you want to acquire the equity of Disney held by Relativity Entertainment?
Yes. Taraves-Knight admitted: I want to become a major shareholder of Disney. Disney has the channels that Laika Animation needs.
This looks like a very thoughtful and ambitious young man.
To a certain extent, it is also in line with the personality of Talaves Knight, a super rich second generation who is working hard in Hollywood.
Ronan raised his vigilance: There are many shareholders in Disney, why did you find me?
Travis Knight said naturally: If Relativity Entertainment is willing to sell Disney's equity to me, I believe more people will be willing to trade with me later.
This sounds very reasonable. Ronan still doesn't have any thoughts of letting go of his vigilance. Travis Knight's reasons are sufficient and in line with his personality, but is there any other purpose behind it?
For strangers, Ronan's trust level is very low.
In other words, people who are used to digging pits will naturally guard against whether others are going to dig pits to bury people.
Travis Knight said: Mr. Anderson, I am very sincere. Laika Studio also needs Disney channels for promotion. This is a shortcut to cooperate with Disney.
These words instantly reminded Ronan that as an animation studio, Disney's channel is self-evident for Lycra.
In the face of this huge attraction, would someone quietly hide behind Travis Knight and push him?
Travis Knight said a key point at this time: I am willing to acquire the Disney shares held by Relativity Entertainment at a premium of 10% based on the market price.
This price is very sincere, and even Ronan is a little tempted.
If there is no potential next family, Ronan may not have to think about it.
Sorry, Mr. Knight. Ronan said with a faint smile: Relativity Entertainment holds shares in Disney to strengthen cooperation with Disney. Disney shares are not for sale to me.
We can negotiate the price, said Travis Knight.
Ronan smiled and insisted: In the short term, Relativity Entertainment has no plans to sell Disney's equity.
This is not completely dead. The so-called non-sale items, in other words, means that the price paid is not enough.
Taraves Knight was about to leave, stood up and said, Mr. Anderson, I suggest you think about it.
Ronan shook hands with him: Mr. Knight's kindness, I appreciate the entertainment of Theory of Relativity.
Travis Knight took out his business card and handed it to Ronan with both hands: This is my contact information, we can strengthen our relationship in the future.
Ronan politely exchanged business cards with him, and sent Travis Knight out of the reception room.
Back in the office, Ronan called Connie and said, You get people to pay attention to Travis Knight, and find out if he has any relationship with Disney's top management, especially Michael Eisner and Roy Disney .”
Connie quickly agreed.
Although Ronan did not resolutely refuse, he was also very cautious. Before Maple Leaf Pictures was fully determined, Travis Knight could also be used as a backup tire to take over.
Even if there is a problem, it may be used as a bargaining chip.
On the other side, Travis Knight left the Relativity Building, and less than an hour later, he appeared in a yacht club in Santa Monica.
He changed to a small yacht and went out to sea, and soon boarded a large yacht not too far from the coastline.
On the top floor of the yacht, Talaves Knight saw a gray-haired old man - Roy Disney.
How did it go? Roy Disney asked.
Travis Knight roughly described the situation, saying: Not very optimistic, Ronan Anderson's willingness to sell is not very strong. Of course, he didn't completely refuse. I think the price I offered was not enough.
Roy Disney's face was gloomy: A 10% premium isn't enough?
Travis Knight said: Based on my contact with him, Ronan Anderson is very cautious, maybe he has doubts.
Roy Disney said: You continue to contact him.
Travis-Knight said: Yes, I will try to buy the equity held by Relativity Entertainment, but I will not do more, and it is impossible to pay a higher price than a 10% premium.
He emphatically reminded: Don't forget your promise.
Roy Disney said: If I succeed, Disney will sign a good distribution contract with Laika Studios.
That's it. Travis Knight waved his hand: I'm leaving.
Roy Disney called to stop him: You let someone tell the media that you are planning to acquire Disney's equity from Relativity Entertainment.
Travis Knight understands Roy Disney's intentions: Unless the deal actually happens, it won't make much difference.
Roy Disney insisted: It's good to have a little effect.
Although he also made various efforts and continued to speak out through the media, he could not prevent a series of good news from Disney from spreading, and Michael Eisner was obviously pulling back the disadvantages.
The most important thing is that some time ago, his actions and remarks were a little too much, which immediately caused a rebound from the centrist shareholders who originally supported him, criticizing him for doing this for his own selfishness and harming the interests of Walt Disney as a whole.
Roy Disney can feel that behind this is not only Ronan Anderson and Relativity Entertainment, but also other powerful forces involved, and all they have done, especially driving the rise of Disney's stock price, has confused too many eyes.
Shareholders like the stock price rise, and the cooperation between Relativity Entertainment and Disney is precisely the key to this stock price rise.
If Roy Disney does nothing, the stock price will continue to rise, and if there is a big fanfare, shareholders will watch Disney stock price being pulled down by him?
Because of the actions some time ago, some centrist shareholders have changed their support for Roy Disney.
Roy Disney found that, in such a short period of time, it was impossible for him to solve it.
If he does not move, the centrist shareholders will abandon him; if he moves, the centrist shareholders will also abandon him.
It was impossible for Roy Disney to give up at this point, so he thought of another countermeasure and found Talaves Knight who had approached Disney for cooperation.
If the situation can be opened from Ronan Anderson and Relativity Entertainment, it is possible to disintegrate the interest alliance represented by him.
This kind of candidate is hard to find. No one in the circle is willing to take the lead in offending a top boss like Ronan Anderson. Travis Knight is the candidate that Roy Disney finally found. After all, this kind of foreign super rich The second generation doesn't particularly care about the huge power of Relativity Entertainment.
Roy Disney has experienced the powerlessness that Michael Eisner had before, but this old man who wants to revitalize the Disney family has a strong will despite his easy-going personality.
No matter what, Roy Disney will fight this war.
Moreover, to some extent, he is indeed biased towards the side of justice.
The day after Ronan and Travis Knight met, some entertainment media and financial media published related news, claiming that the negotiations between Relativity Entertainment and Disney had broken down, and Relativity Entertainment was going to sell 3% of Disney. There are even reports that the next family will take over at a 10% premium.
But just after the report came out, Ronan personally denied the authenticity of the news when he participated in a promotional event for Taken 2.
Relativity Entertainment and Disney will become strategic partners, and the negotiations are going very smoothly. Ronan swore in front of many media reporters: The two sides may sign a series of agreements after the new year at the earliest.
The news about Relativity Entertainment’s sale of Disney’s equity did not arouse much reaction. After many large Wall Street institutions went down, these have been unable to affect the general trend.
A number of financial institutions want to use financial means to seek more benefits from Disney.
With the power support of Robert Iger, Ronan will not allow Relativity Entertainment to overly participate in financial games, but he will not miss the benefits that he should strive for.
On the weekend before Thanksgiving, the new era family movie Taken 2 held a grand premiere in Los Angeles. The two actual controllers of Maple Leaf Films, Ryan Kavanaugh and David Ellison, all accepted Luo Nan's invitation came to the premiere scene.
