The cake is divided, and the business of the year-end meeting of the board of directors is over, but that doesn't mean that the rest of the meeting is okay.

In the next few days, Evan, the chairman, will talk to each director separately. The content of the conversation includes affirmation, encouragement, and of course, motivation for the results of the work.

With a roadshow waiting for him, Davidson was the first to have a one-on-one conversation with Evan.

The time was on the second day of the Council meeting.

The location was on the train Davidson had taken to the train station.

In Evan's car, to be exact.

"Evan, I still can't believe that the United States can't win......" Davidson, who sat next to Evan in the back row, spent the night still haunting his diagnosis yesterday, and tried to "discuss" with Evan again after the car started.

Davidson grew up with the United States, and from the bottom of his heart, he thought that the United States was unparalleled, and he couldn't figure out why Evan had this diagnosis.

But before he could begin speaking, Evan interrupted, "Davidson, let's not talk about this, okay?"

"I said, just wait and see. ”

Davidson saw that Evan really didn't want to talk about this, so he had to shut down for the time being: "Okay. ”

"I think it's better to focus on your work, knowing that you don't have a light burden on your shoulders. ”

Davidson nodded and said, "I understand." ”

"I mentioned most of the things I had to explain yesterday, and I won't repeat them today. ”

"Evan, don't worry, there will be no problems with the listing, and the same goes for the allocation of funds. ”

After Davidson finished the package ticket, he quietly waited for Evan's next words, he knew that the boss came to see him off today, and he must have something else to explain.

"I believe in you. Under your leadership, the business of Moqi Company has developed well, and the plan for the future is also ...... I'm glad I chose you in the first place. As Davidson thought, Evan brought up something that Davidson didn't elaborate on yesterday: "I'm here to see you off today because I want to know something more about it." ”

"Please!" Davidson leaned slightly, half facing Evan, his tone respectful and solemn.

When it comes to work and business, Davidson is never too casual.

Evan looked at Davidson and asked, "How's that project you talked to Disney about?"

When Davidson heard this, he blinked quickly, and said in his heart, it seems that Evan attaches great importance to the Disney project.

He thought for a moment and didn't answer Evan's question head-on, but asked rhetorically, "Boss, you know a lot about this project?"

Evan replied, "Yes, I have read all the project materials you gave to the secretary team. ”

Hearing this, Davidson narrowed his eyes slightly and confirmed his judgment.

"In that case, I don't need to be too clear. Davidson succinctly answered Evan's previous question: "This project is currently back in the beginning stage because there is still no consensus on the size of the project. ”

Disney wanted the park to be about 100 acres in size, so that it could fit Mickey Mouse Park, Fairy Tale Castle, etc. into one place, but the other partner, ABC, disagreed, believing that the investment was too big and the risk was too high. ”

"What about Warner Bros. (one of the partners)'s opinion?"

"They don't take the project very seriously and are neutral. Davidson thought for a moment and added, "However, I don't think they would be happy if the investment was too high." Because their current situation is not very good. ”

Evan nodded, he didn't need Davidson to elaborate on it. In Hollywood now, few companies have too much spare money.

"Evan, I think this is a good project, the Disney characters are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the appeal of the park with its theme should not be weak, and with the development of the economy and the increasing convenience of travel, the tourism industry will definitely grow significantly......"

After listing a lot of reasons, Davidson finally got to the point: "So, I'm in favor of Disney's plan." ”

"What do you think?"

Davidson looked at Evan expectantly, a decision he had just made.

If he hadn't been wrong, Evan would have expressed his support......

"I think ......" Evan spoke, as Davidson watched.

I don't know why, Davidson's heart tightened.

"You're right. ”

"Hoo ......"

Davidson immediately breathed a sigh of relief, good!

"But ......"

Well?

Davidson held his breath.

I only heard Evan say, "I think you can be a little bolder, though." ”

Well??

Davidson couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean?"

"Disney's work has an unparalleled appeal to children, but we're not bad either. Seeing Davidson's puzzled face, Evan explained in detail: "Don't forget, we have a publishing house in our hands, and those science fiction works also have gold mines to be tapped. ”

"It's just that the clientele of those works is slightly older than Disney's. ”

"In addition, if we get the license to develop the merchandise of Disney's works, it will also have a lot of benefits for us. After all, whether it's a Rubik's cube or building blocks, most of the customers are minors who like Disney works. ”

"By the way, by the way, does Disney have enough money to develop the park?"

Hearing this, Davidson had fully understood Evan's intentions: "If Disney had its own money, it wouldn't be looking for so many partners." ”

Davidson touched the watch on his left wrist and said, "Evan, this is an opportunity." ”

"I wanted to see if I could take a stake in The Walt Disney Company...... Walt (the younger brother of the founders of The Walt Disney Company and the owner of the park) needed funding and our support. ”

"It's not impossible to rob while it's hot? Evan thought for a moment and said, "However, Walt is not such an easy person to give into, he will not let people easily meddle with Disney, that is his kingdom." So, I want you to be cautious, to be calmer, and not to have a bad relationship with Walter. ”

"In particular, don't let this affect other cooperation. ”

"Okay...... "Okay" certainly knows Walter's temper, and Davidson, who has dealt with him head-on, so he deeply agrees with Evan's reminder, "I will wait for the most appropriate opportunity to bring it up." ”

"It's good that you know what to do. Evan turned his head to look out the window and saw that he was not far from the station, so he ended the conversation, and in the last moment, he said to Davidson, "Davidson, you're about to become a millionaire, do you want to know how to celebrate?"

Davidson laughs, "I can't wait to take a long vacation and enjoy it with my family." However, the thought of having so much work to do for me makes me say I'm sorry to my family. ”

Evan was pleased with Davidson's statement.
