Chicago 1990

Chapter 1512 Under the 3rd Battle of the Three Emperors

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, why did you make yourself like this..."

Eisner's dying struggle made Song Ya shake his head and sigh. Of course he was not as confident as he was during the call just now, but it is impossible to make any more deals with the other party. Eisner's reputation has long been negative. Who knows what he said Is it true or false.

"Did you just assign KPI (key performance indicators) to our Emperor?"

Linton, who was listening beside him, joked.

"Ha ha!"

Both of them laughed. Before coming to the Emmy awards ceremony, they had already learned that Eisner had drafted his resignation speech and would announce his support for Robert Iger. Naturally, they would feel disappointed, angry, etc. Bluff bluffed Eisner.

Anyway, if you believe that he might be tricked, you might as well be tougher.

"It is also good for him to publicly support Iger, and it will make all the shareholders who hate him vote for me more firmly..."

Linton cheered himself up and hinted frantically.

At this time, the two still didn't know that CFO Staggs had defected to Iger, and Paulson planned to push Bodenheimer first. Based on their previous understanding, they could not win Eisner's "inheritance". There is a high probability that Disney will turn to support Iger's words... Linton's road to the top is a purely tough battle, and he must win the hearts of the vast majority of neutral institutions and shareholders.

Fortunately, Disney shares are dispersed enough.

"Well, kill them all!"

Song Ya's self-confidence is not without reason, he also prepared a trick to kill.

Thinking about this, he subconsciously checked his phone to see if there was a text message from Song Zecheng. When he didn't find it, he and Linton returned to the Emmy awards ceremony.

"The fifty-seventh Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series include: Lost Em Rams, Jeffrey Lipo, David Lindelof; Lost David Fury; The Wire's George P Lycanos, David Simon; Peter Tolan, Dennis Larry from Save Me; and Grey's Anatomy's APLUS and..."

By pure coincidence, the award was presented by Juliana Margulies, who became famous for her stories about emergency rooms...  

It was many years ago that the two were almost hacked to death by a fire axe, and they hadn't crossed paths since then.

Song Ya and the two nominated screenwriters began to applaud and wait.

Because Grey's Anatomy is a medical drama, even if Apocalypse copied it, the professional part should be done by other screenwriters.

"The winner is..."

Julianna Margulies' looks are no longer what they used to be, she paused, "Grey's Anatomy's APLUS... Congratulations!"

"Oh!"

Song Ya and the two screenwriters stood up, applauded and hugged happily.

The TV industry has many more employees than the film industry. The Emmy Awards are very large, and the sacred auditorium in Los Angeles is full of men and women. Of course, the star flavor is much inferior to that of the Oscars.

There is no suspense. Although the Emmy Awards have been dominated by NBC, CBS, ABC's big three and Time Warner, Fox, two latecomers, although Robert Iger, who has led ABC for many years, has a great influence in the television industry, but Song Ya has always been In the end, I don't believe that the organizers dare to hint that they will win the prize and refuse to give it. If they don't mention anything else, they will be scolded by me for many years like the Grammys if they dare to play tricks. Iger will not fall into such a boring stumbling block.

Congratulate each other with other crew members, and then go on stage with two screenwriter colleagues in a graceful manner, "Thank you, Juliana, thank you, thank you jury..."

It is not uncommon to win awards. Song Ya has entered the realm of swaying freely. She hugged the award presenter Juliana Margulies, received the Emmy trophy, and gave a completely impromptu speech. The staff, Ellen Pompeo, Matt Bomer, Laura Ramsey, Yu Feihong and others waved their hands.

"Look,

This kid is so fucking vain, I bet every word in the script was written by the two screenwriters around him, just like what he did in the cat and mouse game back then..."

On the other side of Xiangjiang, after the ribbon-cutting and opening ceremony of Disneyland, another brand-new fairy tale kingdom for Disney, everyone took a moment to watch the rebroadcast of the Emmy Awards Ceremony. George Mitchell pointed to the black pharaoh with an extremely bright smile on the TV screen. , Tucao on Eisner.

"The script of the game of cat and mouse was adapted by him, at least the main plot must have been written by him."

At that time, I was still the real emperor of Disney, and I couldn’t hide every bit of trouble in Hollywood from my own eyes. Eisner still remembers that because he suspected that he and Ovitz got together, he paid special attention to it and let people investigate it quietly. , the conclusion is: he is indeed a true genius who has been wronged, "Don't believe those gossips about the awards, George..."

"cut!"

After being teased by His Majesty the Emperor who was about to abdicate, George Mitchell didn't bother to fight back, and said to himself that you are the biggest now anyway, so you can be happy.

"It's ready." The assistant came in to remind.

"Um."

The smile on Eisner's face faded, he took out the speech script from the inner pocket of his suit, and went out to the cameras of the reporters.

"At this moment of great joy to all Disney people, I would like to announce a personal message. Maybe everyone has felt that the company has experienced some twists and turns recently. Fortunately, I believe that the extraordinary shareholders meeting held on the 20th Will do a good job of correcting our course and getting it back on the right track..."

"But at the same time, I am very sorry that before that, based on my personal physical condition and the doctor's advice, I sadly found that I was no longer competent for the heavy management work. years as CEO and is not seeking re-election on the Board of Directors...”

"Like my friends, I started my career in the William Morris Mailroom..."

"I have faith in Chief Operating Officer Robert Iger to lead Disney forward, and I urge you to continue to support his work..."

Eisner maintained His Majesty's final demeanor, fondly recalling the past, with a calm, gentle and infectious tone. When he said this on the TV, the conversation in Linton's office just ended, and Robert Iger left .

Iger's closing sound was very soft, but it seemed to reverberate in Linton's mind for a long time. He meditated alone, expressionless, and finally picked up the landline microphone with a look of cruelty on his face.

"APLUS, Iger must have dealt with Staggs, he got some black material about my financial fraud in Hollywood..."

He said to Song Ya.

"Stags? The CFO?"

"Yes."

"What are you going to do?"

"Fuck it!"

Linton swears, "I'm not Eisner. If I become the CEO, I'm confident that I can pass the test. It doesn't make sense for them to use this to deal with me. If I don't become the CEO... Anyway, I will stay at Disney." I can't go down anymore, can I?"

"Ha ha……"

After winning the award and celebrating with the Grey's Intern crew, Song Yaren has arrived in Silicon Valley. Linton is right. There is only less than a week left before the 20th. Anyway, it is hard work. Now it is impossible to persuade Linton to quit. possible.

After all, it is Linton who is fighting for the CEO, and he is responsible for so many Disney executives who support him. He backs down first, and the end will not be better than the financial fraud scandal exposed many years ago...

During this period of time, Linton and his people have been running around, lobbying, and doing their best. There are also allies Song Ya, Katzenberg, etc., and everyone is tirelessly trying to win over every shareholder who may vote for it. People say hell, and it really works.

"I'm going to see Roy now. Since Iger can bribe Staggs and get Eisner's public support and endorsement, what will Roy think? He hates Eisner so much, he will definitely mutter and suspect."

Linton's willpower was also very strong, he quickly adjusted his mood, grabbed his coat and hurried out, rushing to the possible openings that the enemy might have leaked.

"well……"

Song Ya sighed. Optimism is indispensable, but he was still very surprised that the dangerous chief financial officer was won over by Jobs-Iger.

"What's wrong? Are you in a bad mood?"

asked Palm CEO Jeffrey Hawkins in the conference room.

"It's nothing, let's continue, our new products at the end of the year can't be missed..."

Song Ya waved his hand and continued to chair the meeting.

The new MP3 player released by Apple at the beginning of this month put great pressure on Beats. When Jobs held the small and light iPod Nano, which was just over 40 grams, with his index finger, the audience went crazy, applauded and cheered. .

The smaller the size, the more difficult it is. In order to stuff electronic components into the product, designers, engineers, and countless smart minds have racked their brains. At least Song Ya knows that Palm does not have the ability to achieve the same level as Apple in a Walkman of the same volume. Functionally, it's a total technical failure.

After the launch of the iPod Nano, it also caused a heavy blow to competing products such as Palm, which was directly reflected in the sales data, so Song Ya rushed here in the midst of her busy schedule.

"We have also changed the pace of new product releases from once a year to twice a year. I know it will be too late at the end of the year. Next year... in March, we will also launch similar products that can compete with the iPod Nano." Song Ya told the chief executive Technical officer Dr. Su Zi explained.

"Okay." Dr. Su Zi lowered her head and recorded.

"Of course, the main focus is still on the press conference at the end of the year. At least we can't lose in style." Song Ya asked, "Can I see engineering samples today?"

"Can."

Dr. Su Zi took out the new Beats products and began to show them.

'In Disney, Hollywood, a super empire with big trees and treacherous 'evidence', Eisner hand-picked a group of potential successors for more than 20 years, but discarded them one by one. Katzenberg, Ovitz, now Robert Iger and Linton, both are expected to win the support of shareholders and the board of directors, and the fierce battle for successors is starting, just like the turbulent years are coming back...'

To win at the shareholders meeting, at least let the shareholders know who is competing. A long time ago, the potential candidate for Disney’s new CEO was no longer a taboo topic. The financial media and entertainment magazines were talking about it. For example, Paulson held this share.

When Linton was in charge of Hollywood Pictures in his early years, he had released blockbuster films such as Invasion Island and Cat and Mouse Game. Currently, he is the president of Broadway Pictures and Disney Copyright Company. He can be regarded as the leader of the traditional entertainment industry within the Disney Group. My own people are deeply popular. '

"And Iger has the perfect qualifications of the ABC TV network. He leads the TV media department within the Disney Group, and has a close relationship with Jobs, the founder of Pixar animation..."

'Which of them will have the last laugh, or will they both fall victim to Eisner's power play, as Katzenberg and Ovitz did? '

The print media was slow to respond, and Eisner had not heard of Eisner's resignation when this article was published.

"Iger didn't handle Linton, did he? Okay."

George Mitchell got the eyeliner report from the Los Angeles headquarters and immediately passed it on to Paulson, "Linton intends to continue playing. Reminder, time is running out..."

"Well, let's act too." Paulson made up his mind.

'Goldman Sachs and a large number of institutional investors expressed regret and regret for Eisner's resignation. At the same time, they are tired of Disney's continuous power drama. Potential CEO successors, what good things have Linton and Iger done in the past year or so? Their war has caused a very deep internal rift in Disney and it is likely that it will not be healed for a very long time... This cannot be changed by anyone who becomes the CEO. '

Paulson tends to choose a manager who is more focused on his job and works hard to run Disney. He praised the head of ESPN Bodenheimer. In recent years, ESPN's expansion and huge profits in the field of global sports broadcasting have particularly impressed Paulson Delighted, he called Bodenheimer the best manager of Disney, and the only perfect manager who focuses on doing real things and delivering beautiful revenue figures to shareholders...'

‘Disney needs a brand new mind to lead the company to truly embrace the 21st century and complete its rebirth from the ashes! '

"WTF?"

Larry Ellison, who was with Jobs and Iger, immediately swears when he saw the new draft, "Goldman Sachs is still the damn Goldman..."

"Bodenheimer? Bodenheimer..."

Jobs pondered for a moment and looked at Iger, "I remember he is not yours?"

"Not anymore."

Iger replied with a straight face, "Sorry, I have to deal with this right away."

"Is it in time?" Jobs asked Iger in the best situation, but he also ran out of cards.

"It's too late for them, Bodenheimer can't be the CEO..."

There was a traitor on his side, and Iger was so angry and ashamed that he hurried out to put out the fire without saying a word.

The remaining two fell silent.

"Paulson is looking for you..." Larry Ellison's cell phone rang, and he glanced at the number and handed it to Jobs.

"I don't want to talk to him, tell him I think he's a clown!"

"Think about it, Jobs behind Iger, plus George Mitchell, Disney's control will slip away from our own hands!" Linton shouted to Jewish shareholders.

"But they say you are APLUS's dog." One of them said strange things with a smile.

"Don't you guys like APLUS? When he got the IBM PC division and Warner Music, he made a big layoff. We Disney should have the same. Trust me, I just use him. He can't interfere with Disney, and we have to Keep his record label!" Linton replied.

"Linton is the second Eisner. His method of winning over his gang is completely inherited from Eisner. In fact, he is Eisner himself!"

Robert Iger is also saying to another group of shareholders: "You choose him to choose the second Eisner, Eisner II! Disney will not change anything! And you will lose Pixar!"

"They said that you will lead the ABC department to seize power and transfer Disney's focus to the TV business..." Some people also questioned him.

"It's all rumors. I have plans for the animation business, movies, records and other businesses, and Mr. Roy Disney supports me."

"Not necessarily, Roy doesn't seem to like that Eisner chose you, oh yes, Eisner appointed you, you are Eisner II, right?"

"Eisner II will not introduce Pixar animation! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I will let Jobs sell Pixar animation to Disney!"

Bodenheimer, on the other hand, acted like a man of action. ESPN’s business trends frequently appeared in various media, and he himself talked about Disney’s future at industry seminars…

On September 16, 2005, everyone was struggling.

Representatives attending Disney's interim shareholder meeting began to arrive in Los Angeles one after another. Even though this meeting is extremely important, compared with the regular shareholder meeting held at a fixed time once a year, the number of people and votes is still much less. As small and medium-sized investors, everyone is at least a well-to-do upper-middle-class person or trust manager, institutional manager, etc. of the rich. They are usually very busy and have their own jobs, so they don’t have so much time to stare at Disney.

It's really not good, the big deal is that I won't play with you if I sell stocks!

Therefore, most of those who came so early in advance were activists with money and leisure.

"Hello……"

Nicole Kidman and her manager Pai Kingsley both appeared in the banquet hall of the Beverly Hilton Hotel. This was a dinner organized by Harvey. Goldman Sachs-backed Bodenheimer.

Of course, Nicole and Harvey have been 'divided' a long time ago. After winning the actress crown, her resources have reached a new level. Top fashion endorsements such as Chanel No. 5 have been added, and film appointments continue. She became the butt of a laughing stock for her couch-jumping incident on Oprah's talk show, and she's getting more and more prosperous in Hollywood.

No matter how Harvey thinks about it, she can't do it anymore, but she can't turn her face after taking advantage of it. The friendship is still maintained, and it doesn't affect the occasional small favors for each other.

Shareholder representatives are almost all white males. Holding Disney shares does not mean that you can often meet top Hollywood actresses. Many people take the opportunity to strike up a conversation and brag about themselves.

Soon, there was a circle of people around her.

Socializing is instinctive, but these greasy middle-aged men outside the circle can't arouse her any interest. After feeling that she has fulfilled her duty to Harvey, she winks at Pai Kingsley, implying that she is out of the way.

"A group of old women... My face almost froze from laughing!"

He sent Kingsley to meet up with the assistants and bodyguards, and then was hugged to the elevator entrance, just in time to meet Harvey who came out head-on, she rolled her eyes and pinched her throat and complained bitchly.

"Hey, you've worked hard today, beauty."

Harvey has been active and caring about the Disney Civil War from the beginning to the end. Seeing that the final flop is approaching, his energy and energy are at their peak. The glib beauty has entered a rapid decline in appearance. I have collected stamps too, and now is the critical moment for power promotion. Bodenheimer has promised him a lot of benefits, and there is a re-election of the board of directors hanging in front of him. He has no idea about women for the time being, "Let's go ?"

"I still have something to do." Nicole didn't bother to make excuses. Anyway, Harvey had a lot of buddies in the entertainment industry and good male and female stars, and she was missing a lot.

"OK, OK... Anyway, thank you for coming today."

But Harvey's habit of being salty will not change for a while. He put his arms around Nicole and squeezed her waist, "Haha! Mr. Bodenheimer!" Say hello to Bodenheimer, the host of the dinner.

"Harvey!"

But before he could walk over, his younger brother Bob trotted over, looking anxious, "I just saw APLUS, and Linton!"

"Where is it?" Harvey frowned.

"Downstairs, I just saw them get out of the car," Bob replied.

"Are they robbing people? Looking for humiliation?" Harvey's eyes flashed, and his fighting spirit was ignited.

"No, I followed them to the meeting room of the development conference. There were reporters and a group of Chinese people over there, which seemed to belong to Huaying Group." The brothers' Miramax often did business there, and Bob knew some of them. people.

"oh?"

Harvey is very perceptive, feeling that something is going to happen, something bad, "Let's go and see!"

"Let's go too." Nicole was both curious and worried. The manager Pai Kingsley was very energetic, and Harvey had a big mouth. After Bodenheimer's card was revealed, Harvey didn't dare to say anything. The woman knows a lot of details and general trends of the Disney Civil War.

She also knew that although she was stung by the black poisonous bee, she was on Harvey's side, and the two sides were hostile.

It's not appropriate to say hostile, after all, they are not on the same level. If they lose, I believe that the black poisonous bee will not come to revenge themselves.

But it’s just a matter of being unhappy.

Stepping back and forth, Pakinsley and Pai Kingsley followed the Weinstein brothers into the elevator, and the hotel conference room was on the floor below.

'Ding! '

The elevator door opened, and Nicole suddenly had a familiar sense of déjà vu, a group of old black bodyguards guarding the outside.

And that black poisonous bee is also there!

This is embarrassing! Pai Kingsley was so scared that his first reaction was to retreat into the elevator, but it was too late.

"Harvey?" Song Ya was leaning against the wall of the corridor to send and receive text messages, because it was inconvenient to appear in front of the cameras of the reporters. He also saw Nicole and Pakinsley behind him, his eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and he nodded to count as a text message call.

"Development conference, APLUS?" Harvey puffed up his belly and asked directly, "Is it convenient for people to watch?"

"How come, please."

Song Ya didn't bother to pay attention to him, and raised her hand as a signal.

With the master's permission, Harvey naturally did his part and led his younger brother in strides.

"Mr. APLUS, we..." Pai Kingsley smiled and tried to explain.

"It's okay." Song Ya waved his hand, lowered his head and picked words on the Palm's full-keyboard phone, turned around and walked in, and threw the back of the head of a tens of billionaires to the two of them.

"It's an honor to accept President Linton's hospitality. We had a full exchange of views during the negotiation..."

At the press conference, a middle-aged woman from Huaguo was talking to the reporters, and Linton stood beside him.

"Hiss..." Harvey gasped when he saw her from outside the door, further confirming his judgment that something was wrong.

"who is she?"

Nicole who followed here bravely asked in a low voice.

"Ms. Han Ping from Huaying Group..." Pai Kingsley replied.

"I personally agree with and trust Mr. Linton's opinions on issues such as import splits, quotas for buy-out movies, and share ratios. Further liberalization of the market is the general trend. Chinese audiences like the family carnival style of Disney movies very much. We believe and are willing to do so. Introduce more excellent productions produced by Disney and start further follow-up negotiations with the Disney company where Mr. Linton works, as well as Hollywood..." Ms. Han Ping said.

"SHXT!"

Harvey couldn't care about anything when he heard this, he took out his mobile phone and turned around and ran, Nicole was almost knocked over by him.

Song Ya glanced at the dead fat pig who was frantically pressing the elevator button, and kept his hands on.

"Go and explain!" Pai Kingsley also knew the pros and cons, and he didn't know Harvey's reaction, so he hurriedly pushed Nicole to instigate.

"You..." Nicole had no choice but to step forward, "We were just invited by Harvey to the dinner party, we really have no intention of participating in your conflict... APLUS... sir?"

"It's okay, I have no conflict with him."

Song Ya sent a sentence to Song Zecheng'Thank you very much! ’, very eloquent, “That’s between me and his master.”

"What!?"

After George Mitchell received the report from Harvey for the first time, the old man stood up abruptly, sat down again, and after a long silence, he was furious, "FXXK! I am the chairman! Who told him not to notify me and organize the negotiation over me! ?”

"Damn it!"

Later, Robert Iger also got the news, "Steve, we must go all out!"

"Um……"

After Jobs learned what was going on, he was as arrogant as he was, and he had to let Larry Ellison continue to send a message to Paulson, expressing his ignorance of Bodenheimer's affairs, and asking Goldman Sachs to immediately turn to support Iger after Bodenheimer's failure.

"We're deeply involved in the Disney Civil War, so we won't still lose it all in the end?"

Paulson's confidant asked him: "That will affect your prestige in the company... and the treasurer..."

"I didn't expect it, I never expected it..."

Paulson closed his eyes in pain.

Huaguo Film Market...

Disney films occupy a higher percentage of the market...

Linton is expected to lead the opening of more markets...

"Is it really possible for Linton to win?"

Eisner, who had already arrived at the resort and started to retire, also saw the news, and immediately became nervous. APLUS's words about retaliation could still be heard in his ears...

"Eric, how are your website acquisition negotiations with Litman Media going?"

He hurriedly called his second son.

"very smooth."

"Well, are you willing to break off negotiations for me?" Eisner asked.

"No!" He was flatly rejected by his favorite second son.

He put down the phone and started the long test. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that APLUS was terrible. It's over, it's over, "If other people win Linton, and APLUS continues to treat you well and buy your website at a premium, then others People will still suspect that I am secretly helping APLUS, Eric, this is not good." He dialed again.

"You're retired, what are you afraid of!"

"Well……"

It seems that something has to be done, at least let Linton and APLUS know that I have helped them, otherwise...

Now they do have hope of winning, don't they?

After thinking it over, he called his last loyal minister: the chief legal officer.

"It starts over there."

On September 20, 2005, his subordinates reminded Jobs.

"That's it for today." Song Ya said to Song Zecheng.

"The re-election of directors has begun, and the progress is very fast." Paulson also got a real-time report.

Linton and Iger locked themselves in the office again. Since there is nothing they can do, they just wait quietly.

"George Mitchell, elected."

"Robert Iger, elected."

"Disney, elected."

Disney's extraordinary shareholder meeting was held. George Mitchell read the results of the re-election of directors. No one made things difficult for Roy Disney's son. The Disney family returned to the board of directors, "Linton... was elected."

His Majesty the former emperor was gone, and no one was making trouble at the shareholder meeting. The old man was not used to such a solemn atmosphere for a while, and he was the only voice in the venue where the needles could be heard. Seeing the results of Linton's election and the The defeated Harvey got a pitiful percentage of votes, he took out a handkerchief and wiped the forehead...

He wasn't sweating, it was just a habitual action when he was nervous.

"According to the requirements of the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders, the nomination of the nomination committee, the board of supervisors..."

It was too late to change the agenda, and Bodenheimer still had to be the first to face the vote to succeed Eisner as CEO.

The shareholder representatives did not make a fuss about this 'raid' nominee, and silently cast their votes.

"Bodenheimer's vote counts as valid..."

George Mitchell pursed his dry lips, "Thirteen percent..."

'Ring ring ring...'

The landline rang, and Iger advanced the microphone in seconds, "It's over!?" His voice was trembling.

"Well, it's me, Robert..."

Bodenheimer's voice came from the other end of the phone, "Sorry, I'm just helping Goldman Sachs as a tool, I..."

Iger didn't listen to him, and threw the topic back.

"Because Bodenheimer did not get more than half of the votes, the CEO candidate nominated by shareholder representatives will be voted below..."

In addition to Linton and Iger, the shareholders also nominated several messy people, such as the head of a certain trade union representative (book friends, please don’t care about the details of the charter).

As a result, the counting of votes was delayed very slowly, and the auditors were nervously counting.

"Iger, fifteen percent..."

"Linton, fourteen percent..."

"Iger, twenty percent..."

"Linton, twenty-one percent..."

The one with the higher 'price' wins, and the number is slowly added up.

'Click, click...'

Iger put his forehead on his head and dozed off, only the sound of the office clock ticking by his ears.

Linton clenched the wine glass so tightly that his fingers turned white.

Song Ya, Jobs, Paulson and others stood at the window at the same time, looking out at the scenery outside.

"Iger, thirty percent..."

"Linton, thirty-one percent..."

"Iger, thirty-five percent..."

"Linton, thirty-four percent..."

'Ring ring ring! '

Linton's heart trembled, he clenched his hand and then let it go, and slowly reached for the microphone.

"It's almost finished, I see that there is still a little left." The cronies who were watching at the scene reported.

"Don't make this random call!" Linton, whose emotions had been detonated, was ignited by Huang and shouted at the other party.

"Iger, forty percent..."

"Linton, forty percent..."

"Iger, forty-five percent..."

"Linton, forty-six percent..."

The auditors and other staff were also confused at the end, "Iger, 48 percent, Linton, 48 percent..."

The disrupted nominees were counted, and less than one percent of the remaining votes remained.

The person in charge of counting votes also began to wipe away his sweat, reaching for the last stack.

Perhaps because of a feeling in his heart, Iger opened his eyes.

George Mitchell, who returned to the scene, looked at the piece of paper in the hands of the staff who came over. He obviously drank a lot of water during the break, but his mouth suddenly started to dry again.

"The results of the counting of votes will be announced below. Robert Iger won 48.34% of the votes..."

But the voice is still loud: "Lynton's vote is..."

'Ring ring ring...'

The landline rang again, "What's the matter!?" Linton picked it up impatiently.

"It's nothing, it's me, hey, Harvey."

It was Harvey's annoying voice.

"Hey..."

But Linton heard everything in that flattering tone!

He covered the microphone and waved it fiercely in the air, "YES! YES!" He kept growling.

"Haha, it's too thrilling, the vote difference is 0.2%."

"0.2 percent?" Song Ya looked back at Song Zecheng.

"Yes, 0.2 percent." Song Zecheng smiled and said, "Congratulations."

"0.2 percent..."

Jobs left the window expressionlessly.

"0.2, two thousandths..." Paulson muttered to himself while sinking in the sofa, shaking his head.

"0.2..." The microphone fell silently from Iger's hand.

"Congratulations, Mr. CEO..." Harvey flattered, "Wow, our live-action film gang finally won, it was too difficult, not easy..."

"Harvey." Linton interrupted him.

"how?"

"You can pack your things now, get out!"
