Chapter 1802: Contempt

Entering the bathroom, Iger finally relaxed completely.

Analysis is one thing, facts are another, and there are always variables in between.

When the facts really go in the direction of analysis, Iger was humming a song while washing his face.

In the business world, or at all times, what we worry about most is running into a guy who doesn't play by the rules.

Now that it has been confirmed that Palmat's behavior is still within the usual rules and scope, as the world's second largest media group, the full representative of the Disney board of directors, Iger naturally has reason to feel relaxed.

In the business world, this usual rule and scope mainly refers to one point, that is, all actions ultimately have only one purpose, that is, to maximize benefits.

To put it bluntly, it is to make more money for yourself.

In this case, he naturally has a good reason not to act according to Palmat's arrangements. The reason is simple, why should I accept and follow all your arrangements?

Or, can't I have some temper?

After being left out by you for two days and three nights, why should I rush over to have breakfast with you as soon as I get your reply?

Strictly speaking, this is not him putting on airs.

He knew that the moment Palmat knew he wanted to see him, some competition had already begun.

Rejecting Palmat's invitation to have breakfast not only properly expressed his attitude, but also disrupted the other party's pace.

In such a process, the most taboo thing is to always follow the other party's rhythm, which will naturally keep you at a disadvantage, and it is equivalent to actively putting yourself in a passive situation from the beginning.

Another purpose is naturally to boost morale.

During breakfast, the guys at the table had happy smiles on their faces, which fully demonstrated that Iger's refusal was very effective.

"Do you think the people sent by Marvel to pick us up will be dissatisfied with our decision and drive back?" said one person.

This is obviously a question that is deliberately asked, which makes everyone laugh and whet their appetite.

"I really hope they can always be so arrogant," said another.

Another round of knowing laughter.

We are Disney! How many companies can maintain their arrogance in front of Disney?

Iger held the coffee and smiled at his subordinates with proud smiles on their faces.

It seems that everyone has a lot of opinions about Marvel's actions in the past two days.

So his decision is undoubtedly correct.

Now it can be said that morale is available.

The morale of a team is not an illusory thing. At times like this, it can really play a big role.

"I hope they can always be so arrogant to the other side," Iger said.

The other side naturally refers to the group of NEXTDOOR represented by Cummins.

"Yes," the subordinates echoed.

The NEXTDOOR M&A team knows that this project will not be negotiated once or twice, but they have absolute confidence that the company will eventually complete this project.

The same is true for Disney.

Although they know that Feng Yiping has developed many good projects with NEXTDOOR as the main body in the past two years, has achieved a series of very dazzling achievements, and has successfully entered the media industry.

However, no matter how powerful Mr. Feng is, and no matter how powerful his company is, in the film industry, let alone now, even in the future, how can it be compared with our Disney?

For Marvel, which one to choose, there is no doubt?

"Have you all finished eating? Then let's go meet our new partner," Iger said.

He has already regarded Palmat as a new partner.

He also believes that there is no doubt about whether Marvel will embrace him or jump into the bowl of NEXTDOOR.

The key to the problem is how to negotiate a price that satisfies both parties.

…………

As they guessed, the people from Marvel did not leave.

"Mr. Iger," as soon as the group went down to the lobby, several people sent by Marvel surrounded them and welcomed them with the same enthusiastic attitude as those guys from Disney guessed.

They didn't mention that they had been waiting here for more than an hour.

Things in the business world are like this. You will play the tricks you should play, but in such occasions, you should also give the respect you should give.

After all, Iger hadn't made Palmat wait in the hotel lobby for more than an hour.

Of course, when there were no subordinates present, these guys were not communicating like that.

At 9:30, Iger finally met Palmat.

This was a guy who looked much younger than his actual age and looked very smart.

"Welcome, Iger," Palmat, who was 8 years older than Iger and was already in his 60s, shook hands vigorously, "Sorry, my schedule is too full recently,"

Iger didn't even believe the punctuation of this reason.

"I have to say, Palmat, it's really hard to meet you. In the past two days, I just met all the powerful people in New York,"

You are talking nonsense, so I'll be serious.

"Haha, didn't I originally want to invite you to breakfast to express my apology?"

"Oh, you know, I don't like to be disturbed during breakfast. In the past few years, I have refused to even attend breakfast meetings at the White House,"

Palmater didn't feel unhappy at Egger's words. He smiled and said, "Please take a seat. By the way, is Eisner okay?"

This time, it was Iger's turn to be upset, "You know, I have full authority from the Disney board of directors this time,"

"Well, I know," Palmater nodded casually, and suddenly the smile on his face faded, "I want to say, are you sure you can represent Eisner?"

Egger even wants to start a lawsuit. Do you just look down on me so much?

…………

At ten o'clock sharp, Cummins brought several people to Palmater's office on time. He noticed the group of people in the reception room and the way they looked at him.

But he didn't care.

As the top manager of all Feng Yiping's businesses in the United States, especially after the launch of two phenomenal products, Facebook and YouTube, his public exposure has not been low.

It can even be said that he is already one of the most well-known executives in Silicon Valley and has long been accustomed to such attention.

However, Cummins always felt that there was something different about the gazes of this group of people.

"Mr. Cummins, please," the receptionist had already pushed open the door of Palmater's office.

Palmater also came to the door at this time, "Welcome Cummins,"

"Nice to meet you Parmat," Cummins said.

He saw another person in Palmater's office, and he thought it was a Marvel executive, but wait, that person looked familiar.

"Come in, come on, let me introduce you to my friend, Mr. Robert Iger, COO of Disney,"

At this time, in Palmater's mouth, Egger has become his friend.

No wonder he looked familiar. It turned out to be him. Cummins finally understood that the group of people outside were naturally from Disney.

He also thought clearly about why he felt that something was wrong with those people's eyes, because it was obvious that there was contempt in those people's eyes, and he obviously felt that he was overestimating his own abilities.

"Hello Mr. Egger," he shook hands with Egger mechanically.

Parmat, what do you mean?

"What, is Disney trying to put any of Marvel's heroes on the screen? To be honest, I'm looking forward to it,"

Cummins wants them to say what needs to be said.

“It’s not just any one, it’s all of them, and we at Disney want to get all of Marvel’s heroes,” Iger said.

Cummins glanced at Palmater, who looked at him with a smile, "Eger happened to be here today,"

How could Cummins not understand what was going on at this time?

"Really, that's quite a coincidence." Now that the matter has come to this, we can only face it positively.

He also sat down on the sofa comfortably, but looking at Egger who jumped out halfway, he felt really uncomfortable, "Speaking of which, we and Disney are old friends. We had a relationship before. It’s been a pleasure working together on several occasions,”

Before Iger could speak, he continued, "By the way, how are you doing Mr. Eisner recently? Please convey our regards to him. We very much admire his great contribution to Disney,"

Egger wants to start a crime again. I hate hearing this name!

…………

In Los Gatos, Zhang Yan and the others were a little stunned when they heard Jin Ling's words, "Talk about men?"

What does it mean?
