Chapter 698: Nirvana
The New York Times, the nation's most important newspaper, ran a front-page story about CBS's chairman and chief executive, Rice Moonweis, abusing his power over the past two decades.
More than 20 current or former CBS women have pointed out that he worked abusively and had been mildly sexually harassed in the course of his work.
Groping, kissing, or making inappropriate demands when the other person is unwilling is the sexual misconduct that female employees suffer while working on or submitting CBS projects.
Even, he really sexually assaulted 6 female employees!
Of these, three were sexual assaults, which occurred in the mid-80s, and three sexual assaults, which occurred in the early 90s.
From this point of view, Les Moonwiss doesn't let too much scum.
Because in 95, he met his current fiancée, Julie Chen.
Julie Chen is an Asian-Chinese, the host of a CBS variety show, and has the reputation of Wendi Deng as the second in the industry.
This news made Lei Shidong almost faint!
Heaven is unfair!
What kind of evil has this created, and Viacom Group will experience such a big setback?
Sexual assault, how can it be so easy to argue?
Whether it's true or fake, being exposed in such a big public is tantamount to ruining one's reputation.
Michael Jackson is a prime example of this.
For Lei Shidong, he doesn't care about Les Moonweis's reputation and reputation.
What he cares about is Viacom's share price!
Viacom just fired Mel Kamashin not long ago, and is actively preparing to resume production and rebuild the top management, but he didn't expect to receive such a critical blow!
It's over!
"Tell PR and respond immediately!"
Before being sent to the hospital, Lei Shidong gave one last order.
He clutched his chest.
It hurts!
It hurts!
A blunt knife cuts the same as meat!
Viacom responded immediately, holding an emergency briefing saying that the allegations would be taken seriously and that an internal investigation would be launched immediately. If it is true, it will be severely punished.
CBS's domineering CEO Les Moonweiss also attended the press conference with a serious face and made an important statement.
"Since I started working at CBS, we've been promoting a culture of respect and development opportunities for our employees, and we've always been committed to promoting women to senior management positions in the company," he said. I recognize that years ago, maybe because of some of the advances I made in the company, some women felt uncomfortable. I have a very great regret about these mistakes. But I have always understood and respected and adhered to the meaning of the qualifying word 'no', which is 'no', and I have never abused my position to harm or hinder anyone's career. ”
This kind of polite remark can't fool investors.
Viacom's stock price has plummeted!
On the same day, it fell by 5%!
Three years ago, the invincible Viacom Group had a market value of $100 billion, but now it ...... Only a pitiful $32.6 billion remains!
Moreover, looking at this momentum, it will not be easy to rebound.
If Viacom can't come up with an explanation as soon as possible to explain Les Moonweis's innocence, then Viacom's top management may face another shock.
The stock price will continue to fall sharply!
(Note: In history, before 2001, Viacom was in full swing, with a market value of 100 billion.) In 2004, it split Pepsi and fired Camassin, and in 2005, it fired Shirley Lansing, acquired DreamWorks, and split Viacom and CBS. After the split, Viacom shares $43 and has a market capitalization of $17.6 billion, while CBS shares $26 and has a market capitalization of $12.3 billion, for a total market capitalization of less than $30 billion. )
……
Lei Shidong is still in the hospital, and it is not clear what is going on behind this inexplicable report.
Viacom's headquarters and the New York Times headquarters, although both in Manhattan, seem to be separated from each other like a chasm.
In contrast, Los Angeles seems to be more informed!
"Fack! It's Les Moonways! This Don Walker, crazy, isn't he?"
Arnold Schwarzenegger, the new California state who had promised Donn a long time to protect women's rights, almost fell out of his eyes when he heard the news.
Although it has not yet been confirmed, it is an instinctive reaction.
At this time, the ability, or rather...... Who else could anyone else who dared to do something to a big man of Les Moonwis's level but Done?
Didn't he speak publicly at the charity gala that day?
He wants to show the whole society the values and beliefs of the New Global Women's Rights Protection Association, and he wants to do a big thing!
As soon as it was shot, it was really extraordinary!
It's extraordinary!
Schwarzenegger was shocked.
Even in the bottom of my heart, I was hesitating whether to support Don Eun......
Against Viacom and Lei Shidong, is this worth it?
As for sexual assault and sexual harassment, it's really not a big deal!
In the entertainment industry, there are many serious things that have happened!
The master Chaplin and Jimmy Page even have a penchant for playing with little Lori! Those black cannon musicians, not to mention, can even be described as abusing women.
Even in Hollywood now, is this kind of thing rare?
Not everyone is Donn Walker!
That kid was young, handsome, and rich, and when he fell in love with a woman, he beckoned, and people couldn't wait to post it. Those old men, with their pot-bellied figures, have long been out of shape, what do they use to attract women?
How can you enjoy the benefits of the entertainment industry without relying on some power and tough means?
Schwarzenegger shook his head, sighed, and was a little distressed, but he didn't expect that at this time, Don called him.
"You've heard about it, right?"
Listening to Done's understated voice on the other end of the phone, Schwarzenegger was very bitter: "Done, you didn't tell me that the other party is Viacom!"
"What? do you want to repent?"
Donn's voice was a little cold.
took his campaign funds, but didn't want to help, Schwarzenegger is looking for death?
Campaign funds, if they sound good, they are called donations, and if they are not good, they are called bribes!
"No, that's not what I meant. Schwarzenegger shuddered and remedied, "I mean...... Your decision is too reckless, isn't it?"
He's really scared of Don now.
This kid, his heart is too hard!
For such a big matter, without discussing it with others, he appeared in the "New York Times" as soon as his brain was hot, and the opponent who called the board was Lei Shidong.
Schwarzenegger asked himself if it wasn't clean under his buttocks.
"It's the result of careful consideration. Now, Wall Street has panicked, and New York has a lot of public opinion guidance on this matter. Hollywood's side, I'll coordinate the official public opinion of California, I hope you can deal with it, after all...... This is a righteous thing!"
Listening to Donn's words, Schwarzenegger nodded helplessly: "I know." ”
……
The day after the incident was exposed, a number of media followed up on this blockbuster news.
In fact, they have heard a lot of news before, and they have also received some anonymous reports. However, the opponent is too strong, and they are not easy to use.
With the New York Times top tank this time, there is nothing to fear.
The morality of media people can be insisted on with pride.
Viacom's market capitalization has fallen by another $1 billion!
Les Moonwis's fiancée, Julie Chen, declared in an interview with media reporters -
"I've known my fiancé Les Moonves since the mid-90s and we're going to get married next year. A kind man and loving father, Leslie is a devoted husband and an inspirational business leader. He has always been a kind, decent and moral person. I fully support the father of the child, support him and his statement. ”
However, the fame of the show host is a little smaller, and her statement quickly sank into endless condemnation.
In the great tide of this era, her simple remarks of a small person are like sinking into the sea and unable to make any waves.
After a day of fermentation, things are finally getting bigger!
Prosecutors in Southern California have also said they will investigate the three sexual assaults in Southern California.
If the evidence is successful, Les Moonwiss will be prosecuted!
At that time...... He will most likely be imprisoned for no less than 5 years!
in the hospital.
Lei Shidong opened his eyes, looking dazed.
He's not stupid.
Even if he hasn't got any definite evidence, he has already seen it on TV, from government officials to non-governmental organizations, and especially the continuous appearances of Hollywood stars.
It's a game!
Nirvana!
