Heads Up Hollywood

From the perspective of the spirit of the legal system, it is necessary to ensure the independence of the judiciary, eliminate the influence of all external conditions, and only focus on the case itself.

However, it is people, not machines, that maintain the spirit of the rule of law.

If you are a person, you will have the seven emotions and six desires, and if you are a person, you will be affected by the surrounding environment and the public opinion environment.

Especially jury members of ordinary origin, their judgments are more emotional and direct than judges.

For example, in court, if someone dares to lie and is exposed face to face, then the following case can be over, and the jury can directly make a decision-lose the case!

No matter how strong evidence you present next, there will be no room for maneuver in the case. This is the price of provoking the dignity of the jury and the majesty of the court.

Although neither Universal Pictures nor Michael Jackson's team made a positive statement about the movie "Hunting", the public opinion environment has already fermented.

Everyone realized that the leading man in The Hunt...was Michael Jackson reincarnated!

If such a generation of pop superstars lose their lives sadly like the heroine in the movie, it will be the wound of this era.

It can be said that under the influence of the movie "Hunting", the tone of the media has gradually turned towards "innocence" regarding the case of Michael Jackson.

Now, another thing broke out!

Jordan Chandler, the little boy who once accused Michael Jackson of sexual assault, has grown up and has a conscience, telling the truth!

Michael Jackson never had anything against him!

That was his father Evan Chandler's extortion for better living conditions!

Evan Chandler's suicide in fear of guilt also reflects this exactly.

Finally, after entering late April, the direction of public opinion began to be one-sided!

Even the British media, which was very unfriendly to Michael Jackson, unexpectedly quieted down at this time.

What happened back then was blackmail.

Let Michael Jackson be controversial, and spent more than ten years in cold eyes and scolding.

Who can guarantee that the current case is not extortion?

Judging from the entire process of the case, the current case is exactly the same as the previous case...!

The American media exploded completely!

"Truth or Lie? Who will protect the reputation of celebrities? "

"Evan Chandler Suicide! The truth about the sexual assault case 12 years ago came to light. "

The Scariest Celebrity Blackmail Ever! "

Don Walker Stands Up for Michael Jackson! "

"The power of movies writes legends, Tang En once again acted as the savior and patron saint of the entertainment industry. "

After Woody Allen, Michael Jackson is on the verge of being wronged. "

"Several betting companies have lowered the odds of Michael Jackson's acquittal. "

"Twain is Embracing Jackson! "

Jordan Chandler's confession of redemption and Evan Chandler's suicide by drinking a bullet have become the hottest topics in the United States at the moment.

In Myspace, almost all big bloggers are expressing their views on this matter.

The conclusion is one-sided!

Ask the public to stop the persecution of Michael Jackson!

He had plastic surgery and maybe a skin graft.

So what?

He is an entertainer!

He has his own right to choose, and he cannot have criminal associations just because of the dispute over his appearance. This is communism.

Suddenly, hundreds of Michael Jackson support clubs organized.

White House mailboxes are also filling up.

Countless supporters even hope that the president will come forward.

If the law is really unfair and the punishment is outrageous, I hope the president can sign an amnesty. Because Michael Jackson must be innocent.

In short, until this moment, Michael Jackson was completely relieved, like a newborn.

Even if the acceptance of the case is not over yet!

Sometimes, the public's understanding is more important than the legal judgment!

Michael Jackson made a call to Tang En.

After the call was connected, Tang En did not hear the other party's voice through the receiver for a long time.

After a full ten seconds, a few crying were faintly heard.

He cried again.

In just a few short contacts, Tang En has heard his cry twice.

This is a middle-aged uncle who is nearly fifty years old!

It is conceivable how much pressure and psychological burden he has endured in the past ten years.

Tang En was deeply touched.

He didn't have much contact with Michael Jackson.

However, he knows Woody Allen well.

Last year, Woody Allen was also questioned by the public similarly, but the scolding and accusations were far from being compared with Michael Jackson.

Even so, Woody Allen collapsed several times and saw a psychiatrist for three consecutive months.

One can imagine what Michael Jackson has experienced in the past ten years.

Tang En sighed, "Everything is getting better, isn't it? The truth of the case ten years ago came to light, and this case...it won't take long for the court to issue a fair punishment."

Michael Jackson's voice was a little choked, "Twain, I really don't know what to say, thank you! Thank you so much! Thank you for your trust, thank you for your movie!"

...

Robert Iger is leading the big deal -- the acquisition of Victoria's Secret.

"Victoria's Secret" belongs to the LB company and is one of the two ace brands under the company.

Currently, LB's share price is US$23.33, with a total share capital of 291 million and a market value of US$6.79 billion.

LB has more than a dozen brands, and Victoria's Secret is only one of the two trump cards.

It can be predicted from this that if you want to win the Victoria's Secret brand and all its assets, the transaction price will not be too high, which is about 3 billion US dollars.

Counting the premium, that's $3.5 billion.

The current book cash flow of New Global Group is 7 billion US dollars. In addition, the second tranche of 5 billion US dollars of bonds is in preparation for issuance.

Even with an all-cash deal, winning Victoria's Secret wouldn't be a big deal!

Negotiating with such listed companies is relatively easier than with private companies.

Just pay enough price to get the board.

However, it does not mean that the plan can be finalized with a snap of the fingers.

"The negotiations encountered a lot of trouble. They recognized the strength of New Universal, and agreed that Victoria's Secret would have greater development potential in joining New Universal. However, they did not let go of the price."

The price was quite different from expectations, and Robert Iger couldn't specialize in it to repay Twain.

Tang En didn't show overly surprised, "How much?"

"$4 billion!"

"so tall?"

Tang En frowned.

Last year, Victoria's Secret had a total turnover of US$2.84 billion and a net profit of US$370 million. According to the price-earnings ratio of 8.7 times the mainstream of traditional corporate mergers and acquisitions, the market valuation of the Victoria's Secret brand is 3.22 billion US dollars.

Because the conditions of New Global are better than those of LB, the top and bottom management of Victoria's Secret intend to join New Global to seek better development space.

With this collective management tendency, New Global has reason to further lower the transaction price.

3 billion US dollars is the original expectation of New Global.

Unexpectedly, the LB Lion's big opening was 4 billion U.S. dollars, and the premium reached 34%.

A little high.

Robert Iger said: "Their attitude is relatively tough. Even if they make concessions, I'm afraid it won't be too much. They know the ambitions of New Global and our financial resources."

Tang En meditated quietly for a few minutes, and said: "Get it done as soon as possible! In terms of price, it should be between US$3.5 billion and US$3.7 billion. I only have one request. This year's Victoria's Secret Fashion Show must be hosted by our New World! As soon as possible !"

Taking advantage of the hot relationship with Michael Jackson, the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in November this year can pull the Uranus superstar to the town!

At the level of Michael Jackson, it is almost impossible for him to be on the stage of the Victoria's Secret Show.

This year will be the only chance.

Strike while the iron is hot, you must grasp it!
