"Hello, Mr. Anderson."
In the reception room, a white man older than Ronan introduced himself with a smile:
I’m Taravis Knight of Lycra Animation Studio. Your production company, Shahai Entertainment, has contacted me. Unfortunately, "Transformers" chose Michael Bay as the director."
Hearing this person's self-introduction, Ronan immediately understood who he was, and shook hands and said: "I let Shahai Entertainment make contact with you. I think you would be a good director choice, but then Michael Bay joined in. , I can only make a choice."
Talavis Knight didn’t have those inexplicable emotions. He was generally clear-headed:
Compared to Michael Bay, I’m really not persuasive in 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 Talavus Knight. The prince of Nike, a veritable second generation of super rich, shouldn't ask for a career as a director.
Talavus-Knight replied: "I am a shareholder of Disney, a very small one. The equity was taken from my father. I didn't care about Disney before. Until recently these disputes about Disney occurred. ."
He smiled and said: "I also know about Disney's situation. Mr. Anderson, you have part of Disney equity in your hands, and it seems to support Michael Eisner?
Ronan remained silent: "I want to safeguard the investment interests of Relativity Entertainment."
Talavis-Knight said: "I have always been interested in investing in major Hollywood companies."
Ronan asked: "Do you want to acquire Disney's equity in Relativity Entertainment?"
"Yes." Talavus Knight admitted: "I want to become a major shareholder of Disney. Disney has the channels that Lycra Animation needs."
This seems to be a very ambitious young man.
To some extent, it is also in line with the personality of Talavus Knight, a super rich second-generation who is working his career in Hollywood.
Ronan increased his vigilance: "Disney has many shareholders, why did you find me?"
Talavus Knight said naturally: "If Relativity Entertainment is willing to sell me shares of Disney, I believe that more people will be willing to trade with me in the future."
This sounds very reasonable. Ronan still doesn't have any thoughts to relax his vigilance. Taravis-Knight's reasons are sufficient and consistent with his personality, but is there any other purpose behind it?
Ronan's trust in strangers is very low.
In other words, people who are used to digging pits will naturally guard against others whether they are planning to dig pits and bury people.
Talavis-Knight said: "Mr. Anderson, I am very sincere. Lycra Studios also need Disney channels for promotion. This is a shortcut to cooperate with Disney."
These words instantly reminded Ronan that as an animation studio, Disney's channels are self-evident for Lycra.
In the face of this huge attraction, will anyone quietly hide behind Talavus Knight and push it?
Talavis-Knight said the key point at this time: "I am willing to buy Disney shares in the hands of Relativity Entertainment at a premium of 10% based on the market price."
The price is very sincere, even Ronan is a little tempted.
If there is no potential next home, Ronan said he must not 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."
Talavus-Knight said: "We can negotiate the price."
Ronan smiled and insisted: "In a short period of time, Relativity Entertainment has no plans to sell Disney shares."
This is not a complete statement. The so-called non-sale goods, in other words, means that the price paid is not enough.
Talavis Knight prepared to leave, stood up and said, "Mr. Anderson, I suggest you think about it."
Ronan shook hands with him: "Mr. Knight’s kindness, I have a passion for relativity."
Talavis-Knight took out his business card and handed it to Ronan with both hands: "This is my contact information. We can strengthen contact in the future."
Ronan politely exchanged business cards with him, and sent Talavus Knight out of the reception room.
Returning to the office, Ronan called Connie and said, "You make people pay attention to Talavus Knight and check whether he is related to Disney’s senior management, especially Michael Eisner and Roy Disney. ."
Connie responded quickly.
Although Ronan did not resolutely refuse, he was also very cautious. Before Maple Leaf Pictures was completely determined, Talavis Knight could also be a spare tire.
Even if there is a problem, it may be used as a bargaining chip.
On the other side, Talavis Knight came out of the Theory of Relativity Building, and only less than an hour later appeared in a yacht club in Santa Monica.
He changed to a small yacht to go out to sea, and soon boarded a large yacht not too far from the coastline.
On the top of the yacht, Talavus Knight saw a gray-haired old man-Roy Disney.
"How was the talk?" Roy Disney asked.
Talavus Knight described the situation roughly, saying: "Not very optimistic, Ronan Anderson is not very willing to sell. Of course, he did not completely refuse, thinking that the price I offered was not enough. "
Roy Disney's face is gloomy: "The ten percent premium is not enough?"
Taravis Knight said: "From my contact with him, Ronan Anderson is very cautious, maybe he is skeptical."
Roy Disney said: "You continue to contact him."
Talavus-Knight said: "Yes, I will try to buy the equity held by Relativity Entertainment, but I will not do more, nor can I offer a price higher than the premium of 10%."
He emphatically reminded: "Don't forget your promise."
Roy Disney said: "If I succeed, Disney will sign a generous distribution contract with Lycra Studios."
"That's it." Talavus Knight waved his hand: "I'm leaving."
Roy Disney yelled to him: "You let the media reveal to the media that you are planning to acquire Disney shares in Relativity Entertainment."
Talavis Knight understands Roy Disney's intentions: "Unless the transaction actually happens, it won't do much."
Roy Disney insisted: "It's good to have a little effect."
Although he has made various efforts and has continued to speak out through the media, he has not been able to prevent the spread of a series of good news from Disney. Michael Eisner is clearly regaining his disadvantage.
The most important thing is that some time ago, his actions and remarks were a bit overdone, which immediately caused a backlash from the centrist shareholders who originally supported him, criticizing him for doing so for his own benefit 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, there are other powerful forces involved, and all these they have done, especially the rise of Disney's stock price, confused too many eyes.
Shareholders like the stock price rise, and the cooperation between Relativity Entertainment and Disney is the key to this stock price rise.
If Roy-Disney does nothing, the stock price will continue to rise. If it is torn down with fanfare, shareholders will watch Disney's stock price be pulled down by him?
Because of actions some time ago, some centrist shareholders have changed their stance in support of Roy Disney.
Roy Disney discovered that in such a short period of time, it was simply incomprehensible to him.
If he does not move, the middle shareholder will abandon him; if he moves, the middle shareholder will also abandon him.
Roy Disney couldn't give up on this, so he thought of another countermeasure and found Taravis Knight, who had previously approached Disney to request cooperation.
If Ronan Anderson and Relativity Entertainment can open up the situation, it is possible to disintegrate the alliance of interests represented by him.
This kind of candidate is not easy to find. No one in the circle wants to lead the offense of Ronan Anderson, a top boss, Taravis Knight is the candidate that Roy Disney finally finds, after all, this kind of foreign super rich The second generation does not particularly care about the huge power of relativistic entertainment.
Roy Disney realized the powerlessness that Michael Eisner had before, but this old man who wants to revitalize the Disney family has an easygoing personality and a very firm will.
In any case, Roy Disney will fight this war.
Moreover, to some extent, he is indeed biased towards justice.
The second day Ronan and Taravis-Knight met, some entertainment media and financial media published relevant news, claiming that the talks between Relativity Entertainment and Disney had broken down and that Relativity Entertainment was preparing to sell 3% of Disney’s possession. Equity, even the next home took over at a 10% premium.
But as soon as the report came out, Ronan personally denied the authenticity of the news when he participated in a publicity event for "Hurricane Rescue 2".
"Relativity Entertainment and Disney will become strategic partners~EbookFREE.me~ The negotiation proceeded very smoothly." Ronan vowed to many media reporters: "At the earliest after the New Year, the two parties may sign a series of agreements."
The news of Relativity Entertainment’s sale of Disney’s equity did not cause much reaction. After many large institutions on Wall Street were dismissed, these could no longer affect the general trend.
Many financial institutions must use financial means to seek more benefits on Disney.
Ronan, supported by the power of Robert Iger, although he will not allow Relativity Entertainment to participate excessively in the financial game, he should strive for the benefits he obtains and will not miss it in vain.
The weekend before Thanksgiving, the new era family carnival movie "Hurricane Rescue 2" held a huge premiere in Los Angeles. The two actual controls of Maple Leaf Pictures, Ryan Kavanaugh and David Ellison, all accepted Luo. Nan's invitation came to the premiere scene.
