Chapter 66

Chapter 66 Three choices

After the conversation between Abel and Michael Ovitz ended.

Ovitz was worried and thought about weighing the pros and cons.

To Sarah Michelle Gellar beside me,

As for Liv Tyler, her heart rate increased.

What these two men mainly talk about is the innovative elite cultural enterprise, that is, caa ownership, a monster in their eyes!

Strictly speaking, Liv Tyler is currently only a third- or fourth-rate female star.

Sarah is worse. In the field of dramas, it can be considered the top of the second line, just being the top is not enough.

In the film industry, Sarah believes that at most she can reach the fifth line.

Time and space go together,

Liv Tyler didn't become famous until The Lord of the Rings was released.

When I'm strongest, I hit the first line.

As soon as Lord of the Rings ended, they rushed to the second line, even the third line. Sarah Michelle Gellar is even worse.

All this time, she has been primarily a television actress.

In the film industry, this affects the fifth line at most.

Like around 2008, when two men stood in front of two female stars of level four and five.

Discuss the ownership of Huayi Company as well as the path for further development. No wonder the two female stars were not interested when they heard such a topic.

Likewise, this also made them look into Abel's eyes.

It shines brighter and brighter.

According to Ovitz, this is probably the new boss of caa.

Still so young and beautiful. If they were around such a large amount of money, for people like them.

No less than a Chinese female internet star, it was as if she had the opportunity to be with Chinh Cong.

Excited, definitely.

Ovitz didn't know what the two girls were thinking and didn't care.

He has been practicing for nearly thirty years. Thirty years of ups and downs, Hollywood has seen too much.

Right now he is still weighing the pros and cons.

First of all, it is now up to him to become president of the caa

Very attractive, it's true.

Although "The Lord of the Rings" has not yet been released, the term "Return of the King" is not yet too popular.

But he also wants "The Return of the King" to return to CAA in glory once again. Second, after leaving Disney.

He has time and wants to transform.

Try getting into other fields, investments or operations.

The final result showed that he was not suitable for any job other than the entertainment industry.

So, under these two premises, he can actually achieve the CAA chairmanship. The attraction for Michael Ovitz was too great.

Even if you want it, you have to pay a small price.

For example, lower prices.

Ovitz also found it quite acceptable.

He took a deep breath and gently said: "It's okay. Give me a week, no, three days.

I will make you a complete proposal. "

Listen to his tone, this reaction.

Abel smiled and nodded with satisfaction.

Accept this, at least in the short term. Michael Ovitz, one of the former kings of Hollywood, is ready to work under him.

"Alright." Abel smiled and said: "Time is not that rushed. Even if you buy Bloomberg stock.

Currently I own just over 26% of CAA's shares.

Not to mention the relative holding ratio, they cannot even reach the safe holding threshold of 34%. "

"So Michael, everything has to wait until I reach at least 34% of the shares.

Add your small stake and talk to a few shareholders. "

"Now is the time to start re-electing the board and allowing you to return to the CAA."

"Before that, whether it's you or me, we have to keep trying."

Ovitz nodded, "Understood."

However, it's not that difficult and I have a few more people on the list who can sell the stock. "

And he still has some allies among CAA shareholders. Even if Abel doesn't reach 34% security.

Then add Ovitz's perspective as well as the actions of other shareholders and allies.

Re-electing the board of directors to determine CEO ownership is also entirely possible.

"Yes." Abel nodded, he thought everything was fine.

From the beginning, he never thought of taking complete control of CAA. That does not make sense.

And if he decides to inject $300 million, it will be voted on by the board of directors.

Then, with the scale of CAA, this capital injection will certainly increase their equity in CAA.

All shareholders have no money and are optimistic about the development of CAA.

At that time, if the capital injection is approved, other shareholders will not follow suit. Their participation will decrease and Abel's participation will increase.

At that time, the company's shares will certainly be 34% higher.

This way, there is no need to worry about Ovitz's betrayal.

It's a bit of a serious topic and yet.

Ovitz's face relaxed. He looked at Abel, then at the two girls next to him, his eyes could not hide his excitement.

Ovitz joked: "Then I, an old man, will not stay here to delay you. I will entertain other guests."

Abel smiled and waved his hand, indicating what he liked to do.

Ovitz soon left.

In the small living room of this independent room, only Abel, Liv and Sarah remained. After that person leaves,

Abel looked at Liv Tyler and Sarah Michelle Gellar comfortably.

"Okay. It's time to talk about our business."

He said with a smile on his face.

This attitude and tone helped the two people who were a little excited calm down.

Liv Tyler said softly, "What do you mean?"

Sarah did not speak. On the other hand, Liv Tyler's physical condition is much better.

Abel said softly: "I'm very happy with you two.

Does this count as harmony?

It's understandable.

But really nice.

I must say it was very fun. I have never been so happy.

Liv Tyler thought as she watched Abel speak.

Abel is too lazy to talk nonsense to them.

About me,

They are different from Annie and Jessica.

Annie is very pure around him and she has never had a boyfriend. She loves money, but we see that she has feelings for him.

After all, it was her first love and she remains a devout believer.

As for Jessica, the two were classmates in high school.

Jessica met him again before she had a boyfriend.

Similar experience to Annie's. Compared to Annie, Jessica has more thoughts and is more difficult to control.

But no matter how difficult it is to control, she is still just a member of the entertainment industry.

In this country, unless she is the daughter of a major capitalist.

Or the female descendants of these blue-blooded families.

Where are other women, facing capital that can be difficult to control? Compared to Annie and Jessica, the two people in front of them encountered it too late.

It's ten o'clock now.

Although it is the most beautiful blooming period and the most beautiful period of life.

But the value of the collection has diminished.

So he frankly said: "Three choices, long term or short term, or... once."
