(Girls' Literature) "Haha... , It seems that Mr. Ovitz should have tasted all kinds of tastes, so what do you think will be the ending for you next?" Seeing Michael Ovitz's face, Li Feng asked again.

After Li Feng saw Michael Ovitz this time, he was ready to completely destroy his pride, after all, it didn't take long for him to accept Disney, even if his remorse should not be as strong as later, and Li Feng was ready to completely tear off his last fig leaf.

"Mr. Li, you don't see me just to humiliate me. ”

"Of course not, I just want to have a good chat and discussion with Mr. Ovitz, but I think before we talk, if I can get rid of the last bit of luck in Mr. Ovitz's heart, we will be more comfortable talking.

In fact, in my opinion, Mr. Ovitz has been doomed since he left C+ to join Disney, and if you don't end up being swept away by Disney by accident, you won't be able to gain a foothold in Hollywood again.

Everyone knows what Michael Ovitz means to Hollywood, Hollywood media giants will not let you make a comeback, C+ may welcome you back, but when you go back to C+, then C+ is no longer your Ovitz C+. ”

As Li Feng spoke, Ovitz's face was getting darker and darker, and Barry Diller on the side almost jumped up to stop Li Feng from talking.

……

"Mr. Ovitz, I should be able to guess the problem you are facing now, when you were in C+, you were opposed to these media giants, I think you should have dealt with these executives at the beginning.

You think, if you were yourself, you would be able to accept such an airborne, former enemy. Anyway, if it were me, I guess I wouldn't be happy, even if I didn't oppose it openly, I could just stumble or something when I was doing things. ”

Hearing Li Feng's words, Michael Ovitz sighed again.

"And managing a media group and a brokerage company are two different things, plus Eisner, although I haven't worked with him, people at Disney have a lot of words, even Disney's shareholders can't do anything about it.

Such a strong chairman is not a good boss for a person like Michael, maybe you used to have a good friendship, but that was in the absence of working together and without direct power struggle, and when you have worked together for a long time, conflicts will definitely appear, as for the outcome is predictable, do you think I am reasonable?" Li Feng asked with a smile.

"That's true, I thought too simplistic and sloppy before, since the end of last year, for several months, I have been busy communicating with these executives, trying to adjust the problems between them, but unfortunately it doesn't seem to have much effect at present.

And I had a conversation with Eisner, but unfortunately I didn't get more support from him and the board. ”

……

"Yes, that's what I expected, if you leave Disney, there are only two places to go, one is to go back to C+, but the current C+ 'young Turks' are not ordinary, they have completed the succession very well, and they seem to be more moderate than you were before, and their business strategy is more popular with Hollywood giants.

The second is that you start your own business again, but you will have to face the competition of the company you once created, and you should be very clear about the situation in the C+ company, the outcome of such competition can actually be predicted, and you will still fail. ”

For the two points that Li Feng said, Michael Ovitz is also very clear that C+ was founded by himself after all, and he knows very well the various rules in it, and the cost of betrayal is very high, in this case, it is basically impossible to poach C+, and the most important resource of the agency is still the top star, without such resources, it is not easy to gain a foothold in Hollywood.

"Mr. Li, according to what you said, it means that my end is already doomed, maybe next year I will be swept away by Disney and disappear into Hollywood. Michael Ovitz interrupted Li Feng's words, and then concluded with a dark face.

"If there are no accidents, this is indeed the end. Li Feng replied with a smile.

After listening to Li Feng's words, there was silence at the scene, and everyone was silently empathizing in their hearts, feeling that Michael Ovitz's ending was really like what his boss said, and they all sighed differently in their hearts.

……

"There is no accident, Mr. Li, do you mean that there was an accident?" Ovitz listened to Li Feng's words, and then naturally heard Li Feng's words, and then asked rhetorically.

"Yes, I didn't think about getting involved in the brokerage business, but last time Barry proposed to me to buy C+, and he thought that C+ was an opportunity to go through a management succession.

But after I took a closer look at the current C+ situation, I think the acquisition of C+ is obviously unlikely, and now in the past few months, the management of C+ has become clear, and in addition to maintaining the essence of Ovitz and your management, the current management is more supple, not as strong as when Ovitz was in you.

Although the final result is actually the same as Ovitz and your previous set, it is a pity that at least the attitude is more lubricated, and it has been favored and recognized by the Hollywood giants again, naturally, we missed the opportunity.

If Ovitz had said that you were going to leave C+ and transfer shares, and we had accepted the shares directly, that would have been the best opportunity, but unfortunately..."

Listening to Li Feng's words, everyone couldn't help but nod, obviously agreeing with the analysis.

"Actually, I don't understand one thing, Ovitz, if you give me any explanation why you suddenly decided to leave C+ in the first place, I don't understand.

There is a saying in China that 'I would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail', to give a simple example, I would rather be the CEO of a small company than a part-time worker in a large company. ”

……

"It's also my own dizziness, I've been a brokerage company for 20 years, and the agency has reached the top in Hollywood, and I want to try a new breakthrough.

Second, with the departure of Meyer and others, the five people who founded C+ together are now none of them in C+.

The third point is that I have handled some huge capital acquisitions before, to be honest, no matter how big C+ is, it will be a business of hundreds of millions a year at most.

As for the business of billions of acquisitions that I have handled before, I found that my C+ is impossible to achieve no matter what, and if I hadn't been a middleman, I might not have had such billions or even tens of billions of transaction experience in my life.

As a result, you also know the situation. Michael Ovitz shrugged helplessly and replied.

Li Feng knows what Ovitz said about several billions of acquisitions, one is Sony's 3.4 billion acquisition of Columbia Pictures in 89, the other is Panasonic's 6.5 billion acquisition of MCA in 90, and finally MCA was resold to Seagram again in 95.

I have to say that in these transactions, Michael Ovitz did a great job, no wonder Michael Ovitz was named 'the number one person on the Hollywood power list' for three consecutive years in those years.
