Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon

"Guys, this is the situation, what do you guys think?"

In the conference room of the CAA company, Michael Ovitz told the five partners what Xia Yu talked about with him, then shrugged and said, his eyes wandering on everyone's faces.

Mother Martin Bao, Mike Rosenfeld and others looked at each other and were a little overwhelmed, but one thing was the same, that is, everyone felt a huge pressure.

After a long time, Mother Martin Bao frowned and asked, "Michael, are you sure they are going to the William Morris Agency?"

Michael Ovitz shook his head with an ugly face and said, "I only saw them heading in that direction, and I'm not sure if they went there, but they are indeed from North Star Capital. You can find more information about North Star Capital. Look, they have this strength."

"I'd rather believe they do have that idea."

Only then did Martin Bao's mother and others focus on the unopened copy and browsed carefully.

For a while, the conference room fell silent again.

Michael Ovitz's eyes were a little lost, and he didn't know what he was thinking, but his frowning brow and changing face showed that he was not at peace in his heart.

After about seven or eight minutes, everyone read the information in their hands, and Martin Bao's mother no longer bothered about whether what Xia Yu said to Michael Ovitz before he left was true or false.

Polaris Capital, with billions of dollars in assets, is a behemoth for them, and there is no need for the boss of such a company to lie to them.

And since the bosses are really out, it proves that Polaris Capital attaches great importance to the brokerage field, and their CAA company has only two choices.

The first is to accept investment. The benefits are obvious. CAA companies can instantly become rich, but their equity will shrink.

The second is to become an enemy, but the result is hard to say, and it is difficult to guarantee that it will not be deliberately targeted and suppressed. If it does happen, CAA will definitely not be able to bear it.

How to choose?

Mother Martin Bao actually already had the answer in mind, but he wanted to know what everyone thought.

Feeling that he hadn't heard the sound of turning the pages for a long time, Michael Ovitz regained his senses and glanced at everyone's faces for a week.

Said: "Everyone has read the information, so let's go back to the topic just now, how should we choose?"

"To accept investment or not to accept investment?"

The other five looked at each other, all counting on the others to speak first.

It's not a problem to drag it like this. Michael Ovitz directly named him, looked at Ron Mayer sitting on the left, and said, "Lang, what do you think?"

Lang Mayer thought about it and said: "Actually, after five years of development, our company has been on the right track, but the shortcomings are also very obvious. All of us here have climbed up from the bottom, and there is no capital behind it. , the company's development has slowed down."

"And the company is getting bigger and bigger, and it is easier to attract the attention of giants in the same field, and the pressure will increase, not to mention that now we have been targeted by capital, there are only two options, so I think accepting investment is a the best choice."

"This is my opinion."

After speaking, Lang Mayer spread his hands, leaned on the back of the chair, and looked at the others.

Michael Ovitz looked at Mike Rosenfeld again and asked, "Mike, what are your thoughts?"

Mike Rosenfeld said with a wry smile: "Michael, do we still have a choice? If Polaris Capital fails to invest in us and does acquire William Morris Brokerage, then our future will be very difficult, and the only way is to find A backer that is not inferior to Polaris Capital Corporation will fight against it, but at that time we will lose more initiative, and the outcome will be the same, and it will be worse."

"Since we can't escape being invested by capital, why don't we take the initiative?"

Everyone was silent, agreeing with Mike Rosenfeld's analysis in their hearts.

Michael Ovitz didn't say anything, and looked at William Hubble again: "William, what's your opinion?"

...

After making a statement, there is no doubt that everyone believes that accepting the investment from Polaris Capital is the best result.

Michael Ovitz was in a complicated mood, and he didn't know if he was relieved or lost.

He packed up his emotions and said to everyone: "Since everyone agrees to accept the investment, let's discuss the specific matters."

three days later.

Xia Yu brought a complete acquisition team such as Gordon Simpson to CAA again. Michael Ovitz and other six people all welcomed him side by side at the door.

After a while of greeting, everyone came to the conference room to start negotiations.

Michael Ovitz and others have fallen into a disadvantage from the moment they agreed, but they have not given up, hoping to gain greater benefits.

On the other hand, Xia Yu had grasped the scale. Although he was aggressive at one time, he still maintained a certain degree of restraint.

The success of CAA is inseparable from Michael Ovitz and others, so the future cooperation time is still very long, and Xia Yu did not increase the risk of cooperation in order to save millions of dollars.

In the end, after an hour of negotiation, the bottom lines of the two parties finally overlapped, and the negotiation was done at one time.

Xia Yu gave CAA a high valuation of 40 million US dollars, and Polaris Capital invested 38.4 million US dollars into CAA for the expansion of CAA.

In the original equity structure of CAA, Michael Ovitz held 25% of the shares, and the remaining five held 15% each.

After the capital injection, CAA's shareholding structure is as follows: Polaris Capital holds 49% of the shares, Michael Ovitz holds 12.75% of the shares, and the other five hold 7.65% of the shares. .

As long as the Michael Ovitz six are still together, then the control of CAA is still in their hands.

Of course, the agreement also stipulates that Polaris Capital has the right of first refusal to transfer the equity of the six of them, and the six of them also have the right of first refusal to acquire the CAA equity of Polaris Capital.

The last is the company's personnel system and compensation system.

The personnel remain unchanged, and Michael Ovitz is still president.

But Michael Ovitz's annual salary increased from $300,000 to $500,000, and everyone else's salaries also rose to $400,000.

...

After the contract was signed, Xia Yu shook hands with Michael Ovitz with a kind smile and said, "The funds will all be credited to the company's account within three days."

"We are a family from now on, and I can tell you some things in advance."

"Polaris Capital will have a big role in the film industry. Now it is acquiring eight giants. In the future, it will also set foot in other entertainment fields. At that time, the business will be owned by CAA."

"At present, I have a script. I plan to invest more than 20 million US dollars in the filming of Lost Water after the acquisition of the film company. At that time, the actors' brokerage contracts are all from CAA."

"But before that, you have to find a way to help me get in touch with Steven Spielberg, who is needed for this movie."

A series of bombs thrown by Xia Yu made Michael Ovitz and others feel a little dizzy. When he reacted, he couldn't help but be surprised.

He immediately seized the opportunity and said: "Mr. Xia, I will start expanding the company immediately. As for director Steven Spielberg, he was in Hawaii last month filming "The Lost", which was jointly produced by Paramount and Lucasfilm. Bao Qi Bing, it should be almost finished by now, I will contact him first."

Xia Yu nodded slightly and said: "Well, the script has been finalized, and it has been registered. I will have someone deliver it to you tomorrow. You can find a chance for Steven Spielberg. If he is willing to shoot, you Notify me again."

"OK."

...

Afterwards, Michael Ovitz called a meeting of all the company's employees and announced to everyone that CAA had accepted the capital injection from Polaris Capital. All the employees were very happy.

Backed by capital giants, CAA has solved the biggest shortcoming, and the future will be brighter.

After Xia Yu dispatched personnel to supervise CAA, he was run by Michael Ovitz and others.

With his help in this life, CAA's rise will be faster than in the previous life.

In the next few days, Xia Yu did not interfere with other acquisitions, but sorted out various investments in the company and did a good job of checking.

On November 25th, a delicate and elegant invitation was presented to Xia Yu, and Xia Yu couldn't help but say that he was ready to go.
