Chapter 896 Change

Langley visited Lloyd Blankfein in a luxury apartment on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, New York.

"What do you think about Disney's situation recently?" Langley asked.

Lloyd Blankfein said: "Ronan Anderson is indeed the same Ronan Anderson. He first used Roy Disney to force Michael Eisner to danger, and then cooperated with Michael Eisner. But these two people were like water and fire, and they could not communicate with each other at all..."

Langley smiled and said, "Simple and direct but also significant."

Lloyd Blankfein sighed: "Ronan shouldn't go to Hollywood, Wall Street is the position he should be most awaited."

"The perfect character is completely opposite to the inner world." Langley said naturally: "We must also be careful of him and be careful of being cheated."

Lloyd Blankfein has a very good mentality: "He is also guarding against us. This is the regular way for our investors to get along with physical companies."

There is a saying he didn't say that major companies on Wall Street are also guarding against each other.

When Wall Street digs holes to each other, it’s even more bloody.

Langley looked at the sea view outside the window and said, "No matter what, Ronan Anderson achieved the expected results. In just half a month, Disney's stock price rose by more than 10%, and it continued to rise."

Lloyd Blankfein said: "At least on Disney, we are consistent with Ronan Anderson's interest." He turned to ask: "What are you going to do?"

"Just make a few statements and say a few words." Langley was in a pretty good mood overall: "It doesn't require real investment in resources, but it may have a profit of hundreds of millions of dollars, so why not do it?"

Lloyd Blankfein nodded slowly: "I think so too. Ronan Anderson has done basically everything we can do, we just need to cheer."

Langley continued: "Strictly speaking, this is also a revitalization of an investment that is not very successful."

"Don't forget that Ronan has found a potential next home," Lloyd Blankfein said. "Wall Street is very crowded, so it's best for the people below to stay below forever."

Langley laughed: "I totally agree with this."

The good news about Disney almost broke out in November.

Relativity Entertainment's cooperation in movies is believed by the outside world to effectively solve Disney's relatively weak live-action film business; and the acquisition of Pixar Studios is the key to Disney animation's revival.

Just like professional film critics, there are too many brokers and famous analysts in North America who only recognize money but not moral integrity. News and comments about Disney being about to get rid of the decline can be seen everywhere in the media.

Wall Street is not willing to be lonely. Many first-tier investment companies and market forecasting institutions have expressed their optimism about Disney's future prospects.

Even the company led by Goldman Sachs revealed that it may increase its stake in Disney shares.

Then, vanishing people said in the media and the Internet that there were definite news that Pixar Studios' pillars John Lasseter and Edel Camt were already talking to Walt Disney about personal salary and benefits.

The negotiations between Walt Disney and Relativity Entertainment were progressing very smoothly. After Relativity Entertainment completed the authorization of "Pirates of the Caribbean", Disney Animation Studio also signed a formal agreement with Shahai Entertainment to grant Shahai Entertainment the shooting of all its animation feature live-action movies and related copyrights.

Disney doesn't pay much attention to the live copyright of those animated movies as much as it does to animation.

If the copyright of Disney's classic animated feature films is to take Disney's life, even the board of directors under Michael Eisner's control cannot be approved.

But in the eyes of most Disney management, the so-called live-action film copyright is not unauthorized as long as the conditions are appropriate.

Many people even think that it is a very cost-effective deal to exchange authorization for the cooperation of Relativity Entertainment in live-action movies.

It is generally believed that this is the beginning of the strategic cooperation between Relativity Entertainment and Disney, but this contract is the same as the previous authorization of "Pirates of the Caribbean". As a commercial secret, it does not disclose specific terms to the public.

In fact, with the full promotion of Michael Eisner, chairman and CEO, Relativity Entertainment obtained the authorization of the classic animation live-action movies that Ronan thought of. It not only allows real-life movies to shoot live-action movies, but also uses all the original images for promotion and marketing, and automatically obtains the power of using or adapting original songs and dubbing.

Because the authorization agreement has a huge freedom and the formal procedures of Disney are followed, it is not a problem at all, and the Relativity Entertainment kicked off Walt Disney to invest and shoot alone in the future.

Between immediate death and staying in office without exceeding the psychological bottom line, Michael Eisner chose the latter.

The possible consequences of the former are too serious and no one is willing to bear them.

As we all know, the stock market is a very strange market. Some people can even sell companies with billions of dollars by selling concepts.

Some people use false technology to hype and promote it and become famous American beauty rich.

All the good news was reflected in the stock market.

Disney stocks, which were originally like a stagnant pool, gradually showed great vitality. By mid-November, their activity seemed to have returned to the mid-1990s.

Relativity Entertainment no longer needs to do too much at this time. It is impossible for those large investors who are profitable to miss this opportunity.

But Ronan knew very well that the harm of financial drug addiction was huge, and he drew a line that before touching, relativity entertainment had to leave.

Century City, the top floor of the Relativity Building, in Ronan's dedicated reception room.

The slightly aged Roy Disney looked at Ronan and his voice was cold: "This is your integrity? Ronan Anderson, what do you want to do!"

Ronan said: "The Disney cooperation in Relativity Entertainment is a win-win situation. Is there any problem?"

Roy Disney looked at Ronan with a burning look on his eyes: "You said that you will not support Michael Eisner!"

Ronan spread his hands, very calm, as honest and reliable as ever: "I never said I would support Michael Eisner at the shareholders' meeting."

"At present, is it necessary to deny it?" Roy Disney angrily scolded: "You are the betrayal of Chiloulou!"

Ronan said directly: "I have no need to deny anyone."

A good-tempered person like Roy Disney couldn't help but feel angry: "The series of behaviors of Relativity Entertainment are supporting Michael Eisner!"

Ronan shook his head: "This is a normal business cooperation, and the benefits are Relativity Entertainment and Walt Disney. Roy. Don't you want to see Disney benefit?"

Roy Disney is out of anger: "Michael Eisner is selling Disney's interests. Your conspiracy will not succeed. I will publicly criticize it in front of the media!"

Ronan sighed and said, "I am worthy of my heart."

Of course, he only considered the interests of relativity entertainment, so he would not lose his worries when doing these things.

Roy Disney left the Relativity Building with anger, and then made a series of remarks against Ronan and Michael Eisner through the media that supported him.

But for Disney management, few people care about Roy Disney's remarks because they are already hostile.

Roy Disney has a limited industry in the media, and it has been too long since he stayed away from the front line.

Disney's shareholders are more dissatisfied with Michael Eisner's performance in recent years than supporting Roy Disney and the Disney family.

In fact, since Disney CEO Frank Wells died in 1994, Michael Eisner has become Disney's dictator, but at that time almost no one opposed him.

Because Michael Eisner can bring huge returns and can make shareholders' investments continue to appreciate.

The central shareholders who have the most equity in Disney have also changed significantly in their attitude towards Roy Disney and Michael Eisner.

The rising Disney stock price in the stock market has made shareholders happy.

Burbank, the Walt Disney headquarters building, Mario Brady, a famous investor from Sacramento, came to Michael Eisner's office in the name of visiting old friends.

"Last time, we were bewitched by Roy Disney."

Facing an old friend who had just abandoned not long ago, Mario Brady was not embarrassed at all and said with a smile: "Roy Disney blinded our eyes and made us unable to see the truth. Fortunately, we woke up in time..."

Michael Eisner wanted to slap this person in the face, but when he thought of the shareholders' meeting that would be held soon, he suppressed all his anger, waved his hand, and said, "Mario, we are friends and partners for many years. I always believe that you will return to the right path and will continue to support me."

"Of course!" Mario Brady's attitude was very clear: "My investment partners and I have always been your supporters, so you can rest assured."

Michael Eisner knew that this was a critical period and said, "I will definitely guarantee the interests of all shareholders."

Compared to the last time we met, the atmosphere between the two was extremely harmonious, as if everything had never happened before, and it was said that the host and the host were having fun.

When Mario Brady said goodbye and left, Michael Eisner personally sent him to the first floor lobby.

As soon as he returned to the office, he received calls from several shareholders. These former fence players now clearly have nothing to do with Roy Disney. I believe he will lead Disney to continue moving forward.

The situation began to improve, and Michael Eisner breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he could pass this shareholders' meeting in disgrace, he would have plenty of time to plan to deal with Roy Disney later.

In the past, considering that Roy Disney had a favor to him, it was still about being soft-hearted.
