�rl��$ \���Nfq��}|Ӷ��XO9�; VPe{ ) ? ' a b U@ òc Τ Pictures has now been shut down for more than a month because of the Wayne Brothers scandal.
In some of the old six-story buildings, there are only five or six employees in the company, except for an old doorman at the door, and they are all specially asked by the Wayne brothers to help in order to sign a contract today.
"The conference room for the signing is on the third floor, please come with me. Harvey took the elevator with Nie's only pedestrian in front of him, and soon came to the conference room on the third floor.
The overall decoration of this conference room is very consistent with the overall decoration of the company building, which is in the traditional American style, the conference room is very large, the chairs are all leather seats, and the feeling of sitting on it is also very comfortable, and there are several paintings by unknown artists on the wall.
Walking into the conference room, the Wayne brothers and Nie Wei didn't mean to talk any more, and took out contracts for each other to exchange for the other party's lawyer team for inspection.
For a moment in the conference room, only the voice of the lawyer flipping the contract paper was heard.
Half an hour later, Nie Wei's lawyer team took the lead in completing the inspection, after all, Nie Wei's lawyer team had six people, while the Wayne brothers only had two lawyers, so the efficiency was naturally not as good as Nie Wei's.
After another twenty minutes or so, the lawyer on the Wayne brothers' side finally turned the last page of the contract and nodded to the Wayne brothers in affirmation.
"Please sign. At the suggestion of the staff, the two parties actually signed their names under their own contracts, and then exchanged contracts and signed their names again.
On the other hand, Nie Wei's acquisition funds also arrived as soon as the contract was signed, and seeing the $470 million in the account, the two brothers' faces finally improved.
Excluding the nearly an hour before checking the contract, the time for signing the contract and transferring the money was only a few minutes, and with the completion of the formalities, the owner of Max Films has also become Nie Wei, including the small building where he is now also belonging to Nie Wei.
"It was a pleasure to work with. Nie Wei stood up and said with a smile.
"It was a pleasure to work with. Harvey and Nie Wei shook hands, then hesitated for a moment, and finally asked unwillingly: "Mr. Nie, since the transaction has been completed, I want to know if our news is from you?"
As soon as this sentence came out, the staff on both sides who had already begun to clean up all paused as if they had pressed the pause button, and everyone unconsciously focused their attention on the two bosses.
"That reporter started tracking you a year ago. Nie Wei replied with a smile.
"Thank you. Harvey smiled helplessly and thanked him, after all, Nie Wei had already explained to him well, at least it gave him a little comfort in his heart.
Bob was silent, dissatisfied with Nie Wei's answer, but helpless.
After all, they don't have any friendship with Nie Wei, and the other party naturally doesn't have any need to help him suppress the scandal, of course, he understands and understands, and Nie Wei's unhappy attitude will not change.
Nie Wei didn't care about Bob's indifferent attitude, Max Films now belongs to him, and the Wayne brothers are about to quit Hollywood completely, even if they think that they did it themselves?
If they leave, how much influence will they have left in Hollywood, and aren't they afraid of Nie Wei's revenge?
You must know that Nie Wei's worth is far more than dozens of times that of them, the key is that their brother is now holding a huge amount of money but like duckweed, not to mention making trouble with Nie Wei at this time, they estimate that the first thing they have to consider is how to keep the hundreds of millions of dollars in their hands.
Nie Wei didn't stay at Max Films for long, giving the Wayne brothers an afternoon of viewing time, and he was going to wait until tomorrow when the Wayne brothers were completely gone, and then he would inspect this company of his own.
"Bob, I think there must be Nie Wei's influence behind this matter. Harvey said to Bob as he waited for his assistant to clean up his office.
"I think so too. Bob frowned and replied, "I even suspect he's behind it, damn bastard, this cunning Huaxia guy who cheated our Max Films." ”
Bob slammed his fist down the wall of the hallway, a loud echo that startled Harvey.
"Hey, brother, calm down!" Harvey grabbed Bob, who was about to smash again, and persuaded, "This is already our best result, regardless of whether this matter has anything to do with that Huaxia man or not, this matter will end here, okay?"
"But I'm not reconciled. ”
"What if you are not reconciled, let's imagine what we are going to do next, I don't want to go home so soon to retire. ”
The lonely conversation of the two brothers echoed in the empty corridor, especially lonely and desolate.
On the other hand, after Nie Wei left Max Films, he did not go back to the hotel directly, but took the team to the restaurant that had been booked a long time ago to hold a celebration banquet.
When the group arrived at the restaurant, someone here had already arranged everything, and Nie Wei went directly to the stage to speak, in addition to encouraging the employees who participated in this negotiation, he also announced the rewards that had been prepared on the spot.
This is not only spiritual encouragement, but also practical rewards, and the atmosphere on the scene can be described as very warm.
However, Nie Wei did not stay here for long, and after clinking glasses and drinking some wine with several major negotiators led by Li Jinyu, Nie Wei submitted his farewell on the grounds of exhaustion.
The main thing is that Nie Wei knows that with his own presence, these people will definitely not be happy.
After leaving the restaurant, Nie Wei did not go back to the hotel, but asked the driver to take him to Irvine, where he wanted to buy a detached villa for Shu Chang as a gift.
Knowing that Nie Wei, a wealthy man, was coming to buy a house, the manager of the real estate company that built this villa area had been waiting here for a long time, not only that, but he also received an order from the superior head office to persuade Nie Wei to buy a house in their villa area, and to allow the manager to give the company the biggest discount that the company could afford.
Of course, they also know that that discount is a lot of money for ordinary people, and it is nothing to Nie Wei, but the sincerity that should be expressed must be expressed.
After all, as long as Nie Wei is left in his villa area, then he can use Nie Wei to do a promotion, so that his community can be upgraded several grades in an instant.
It took a full hour for the car to drive to Irvine.
The scenery near the sea is very attractive to Nie Wei, he has the impression that Shu Chang likes to lean against the house by the sea, she feels that facing the sea, her heart will become broad.
There were no big villas in the villa area that Nie Wei looked at this time, all of them were small villas of about 2,000 square feet to 3,000 square feet.
At present, real estate in the United States is still very sluggish, which is why real estate companies attach so much importance to Nie Wei, after all, high-quality customers like Nie Wei are too rare, and even his appearance is likely to save the housing prices of their villa area.
"Mr. Nie Wei, the villa in front of us is the most advantageous location in our villa area, these houses all face the sea, less than 500 meters away from the villa is the ecological park developed by our company, and do you see the vacant land above the villa, where we are also preparing to build a multi-purpose sports field. ”
"In addition to this, a community hospital has been established in our community, and in the near future, there will be a large supermarket nearby. ”
"It's also a school district, and there are a lot of good schools nearby, so it's a great choice for your child if they want to study abroad in the future. ”
"And you should have seen it when you came, the security forces invested by our company are very strong, and a patrol car will pass by almost every ten minutes, which can completely ensure the safety of users here. ”
……
The gold medal sales manager arranged by the company kept introducing to Nie Wei how good his house was and how complete the supporting facilities were.
Nie Wei listened very seriously, since it was a gift for Shu Chang, Nie Wei naturally hoped to pick the best house.
Under the leadership of the sales manager, Nie Wei visited three villas successively, and finally finalized a three-story villa of about 3,500 square feet.
After choosing the target, the rest is much simpler, the sales manager directly quoted the lowest price on his side, which is simply half sold and half given, Nie Wei will not have to buy at the original price like the nouveau riche to show that he has money, since the other party gave a discount, Nie Wei naturally accepted it happily.
In less than half an hour, the sales contract has been signed, of course, there are still a lot of formalities to go through, but these can be left to their team of lawyers in the United States.
All Nie Wei had to do was take out his SLR camera and take a lot of photos of this villa, which was already comfortable.
When Nie Wei bought the villa, Thomas had already waited for all the flowers, he knew that Nie Wei was going to sign a contract with the Wayne brothers today, although he thought that this matter was 99% fine, but he couldn't stand it.
He was most faintly worried about Nie Wei's identity as the boss of the Los Angeles Times, and he was afraid that the Wayne brothers would be unable to suppress their anger and turn the table when they saw that it was Nie Wei.
"No, no, since Nie Wei is here, he must be sure, I want to believe in the boss. ”
"The Wayne brothers are known for their hot tempers in the circle, so they won't really tear up the contract on the spot, right?"
"No, they wouldn't be so irrational. ”
"But what if...... Ahh ”
Thomas's wife looked at her husband's restless appearance, couldn't help but shook her head helplessly, and persuaded: "Thomas, you should calm down, you are not what you are about to become the president of Max, and I don't think Mr. Nie will like you now." ”
"I'm sorry, I understand what you said, but my mind can't calm down. Thomas replied with some irritation.
"Thomas, you don't need to think too much, the current matter belongs to Mr. Nie, what you should think about is, if you become the president of Max Films, what should you do, don't be disturbed by these things that don't belong to you, understand?" Thomas's wife half-squatted next to Thomas, and said in a serious reassuring voice.
In her opinion, her husband's obvious psychological imbalance at this moment, he cares too much about the position of president, so he is so worried.
So the wife wants to try to make him not think about the bad side, but to occupy his mind with a work plan, so that he does not have room for gains and losses.
"Honey, can you talk to me, if you become president, how do you want to develop this company?" After thinking about it, his wife took the initiative to open up a topic.
Sure enough, when he heard this topic, Thomas became interested, after all, this is what he has been thinking about the most recently, but he has not become the president, and he can't tell others for the sake of confidentiality, so he has always held it in his heart.
What he didn't expect was that his wife, who was usually not interested in these things, took the initiative to ask about it today, and in the face of his wife, he naturally had nothing to hide, and suddenly wanted to talk to his wife about all his thoughts.
At this time, the wife tried her best to play the role of a very attentive listener, although she did not understand many of the technical terms spoken by her husband, but this did not prevent her from showing adoring eyes and expressions to her husband.
And twenty years of married life, so that she knows how to pick up her husband very well, there is no need to discuss professional knowledge with him, knowledge gives him a reason to continue, let him say happily, wouldn't it be good?
More than an hour passed before he knew it, and when the phone rang to interrupt Thomas, he still had a feeling of unfinished business.
Of course, it was only for a moment, and soon his attention was all on the phone.
"BOSS, I'm Thomas. After answering the phone, Thomas unconsciously sat up straight, as if he was a soldier who had just entered the new barracks and was reporting to the general.
"Come to Max Films at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning, and I will officially announce your appointment as president in front of all the staff. Nie Wei simply explained and hung up the phone.
But for Thomas, that sentence was enough.
"Honey, tomorrow at ten o'clock, I will be the president of Max Films!!" Thomas hugged his wife tightly, and then hugged her with all his strength, causing his wife to exclaim.
I won't talk about the things that can't be described in words.
Max Films still has nearly 600 employees, and their abilities are not clear to Nie Wei, let alone their conduct, but in order for the company to resume operation as soon as possible, Nie Wei is not ready to touch any of them for the time being.
As for the future to identify which ones are loyal to the company and those who are eating for nothing, this task naturally falls on Thomas.
At ten o'clock in the morning the next day, more than 95 percent of the current employees of Max Films came to the company, and the remaining five percent basically took leave in advance because of the matter, and there were also two staff members who did not respond after receiving the notice, and Nie Wei naturally added these two people to the blacklist.
Of course, this will also be handed over to Thomas to deal with, after all, the new official has three fires, and these two guys are very suitable for Thomas to use the knife.
"Thomas, are you ready?" Nie Wei looked at his watch, it was less than a minute before ten o'clock, so he asked Thomas on the side.
