Mark was stunned and said, "What's the matter? It's Christmas soon, and I asked David and them to dinner in the evening." "After eating, it's time to warm up with a small band-aid.

Meghan said: "There are some problems with Marvel, you must be there to deal with it, you better buy time, come back as early as possible, and try to go back to Los Angeles for Christmas." ”

Mark said, "OK!" and he immediately asked Billy to drive him and Carlo to the airport.

It turned out to be a good thing done by Ron, before the acquisition was confirmed, he transferred the company's liquidity, and now Marvel Nuo, a large company, only has more than 500,000 US dollars in his hands, and even the salary is not enough.

M&A is a very frustrating thing, covering price negotiation, strategic integration, organizational design, organizational structure adjustment, personnel reduction, etc., which requires a very strong, Very comprehensive work team, Megan is from Oracle transferred to the professional M&A team to advise her, implement and implement every action, after signing the M&A agreement, immediately freeze the company's account, send a team composed of professional financial accountants, lawyers to station, inventory and division of the company's assets, strip off non-performing assets, and after all this is completed, it will be confirmed that the contract will be signed and the balance will be paid.

Meghan's team found that there was no balance left in the company's account during the inventory, and in this big business involving nearly 800 million, she tried her best to get Logan to nod, she couldn't make a mistake with Logan for a few millions, this dumb loss was assured.

Now the problem is that the company can't pay salaries, it is the easiest to make people panic in the process of mergers and acquisitions, and now they can't pay wages, which aggravates this panic, and now the company is panicked, rumors are spreading, and it happens to be a year before, the company is going to pay double salaries, as well as various benefits, which will maintain popularity and stability, the problem is that Logan, who is bent on selling Marvel, doesn't care about all this at all, and he is not afraid of Meghan regretting it after receiving a deposit of 100 million US dollars, so it is impossible for him to pay money to fill this hole.

Now Meghan's team suggests that they suffer this dumb loss, but they must let the employees of Marvel understand that who is the good guy and who is the bad guy, so the salary and benefits must be delayed, and they will not take over until the heat is always enough, and at this moment of buying people's hearts, Mark, the big boss, and Donald They must be present, in fact, at first, Meghan felt that there was no need to bother Mark, and she could settle all this herself, but under the repeated persuasion of her assistants, she had to notify Mark and Donald temporarily, and Donald entrusted all this to Mark.

Now there are two days left before Christmas, and the employees' dissatisfaction and anger have almost accumulated, and they have begun to strike, ready to launch a union demonstration, which even Marvel's management and board of directors are beginning to be uneasy, and Logan, the cunning guy, pushes everything to MM, in the case of freezing the company's account, he will not throw money into it, and when Alander, Stan Lee, Ike, Kevin Feige and others approached Meghan's acquisition team, the other party's response was that, according to the agreement, they would promise to pay the wages of the company's employees and the company's various expenses at the beginning of the merger, and also recognize the salary and seniority of the company's employees, but for the previous salary and promised benefits, it will not be paid.

The management had no choice but to find Rogan again and ask him to return the money from the company's account, but Logan directly closed the door.

The people in the management are in a dilemma, in the case of the major shareholder Rogan did not express his position, they have nothing to do, and Logan's stinginess, who doesn't know, in addition to being generous when he divorced, when was he generous? As for Stan Lee and Aland, they couldn't come up with so much money to fill this hole, and it was impossible to fill it, so they approached Meghan again and threatened to spend 800 million yuan to acquire a shell company if they didn't make a move.

However, Meghan is not easy to fool, in the case of victory, she does not shy away from saying: "Marvel except for the superhero copyright has a bit of value, the others are no different from shell companies, if people are gone, they can also reduce their acquisition costs and future operating expenses."

The acquirer's statement made them pour cold water like a plate of cold water, Marvel's stock fell by five percentage points that day, and Marvel was angry and complained, and someone began to mobilize employees to strike, and Marvel quickly became a powder keg.

At this time, Megan informed them and asked them to arrange a meeting with all the employees, the place was in the company's large conference room, and there were not so many people crammed, so they sat in other conference rooms, and it was broadcast through video signals, and the people in the management didn't know what was going on, but Mark They were willing to talk, which was always a good thing, and the wages and benefits could not be paid, and they would be torn apart by the employees.

In fact, in terms of wage arrears, because of the supervision of labor unions and courts, few dare to default, but in mergers and acquisitions like Marvel, it is difficult to say, because there is a place to shirk responsibility, so Logan dares to do this.

Mark and Meghan appeared at the door of the Marvel Building at 10 o'clock in the morning, where the management led by Aland greeted them, and the other more than 100 employees waited in the conference room.

Aland knocked on the side to test Mark's tone.

Mark said: "The previous salary and benefits really have nothing to do with us, and there is no legal basis for us to pay this money, but considering the actual difficulties of the company, we also don't want to acquire a shell company, my team gave a suggestion, MM provides a loan to Marvel to help Marvel tide over the difficulties first, this is a debt of the company, what do you think?"

Aland they have no choice, the company's debt is actually equal to Mark theirs, because soon the company belongs to them, as long as they have the money to take, they will not mind what way, Mark's statement made them put their minds at ease, and hurriedly agreed on behalf of the management.

"Of course, all this can only be confirmed after the town hall meeting, and we have prepared the cheques, and if there are no accidents, they can be distributed today, and it will not affect everyone's Christmas," Mark said. ”

The money is ready, the key is that if there is no accident, the people in the management are all human beings, of course, I can hear the meaning of Mark's words, and one of them immediately ran away.

At first, they didn't understand the purpose of the staff meeting, so they arranged for some people to prepare to make trouble today, to embarrass Mark and them a little bit, to put pressure on them, to make them pay, and now doing this will definitely be counterproductive, throughout the ages, there is no embarrassment and can't get off the stage and obediently pay you, they sent people to inform the employees, if you want money, don't make trouble.

When Mark and they entered the conference room, all the staff greeted each other with smiling faces and a standing ovation, Mark was not allowed to sit in the chairman's position, and made some speeches after Aland's introduction, nothing more than wishing everyone a happy holiday, boosting morale or something, originally his assistant also wrote a speech, mainly to denounce Logan's shamelessness, to praise himself, and to establish his own glorious image, but this was vetoed by Mark.

This has no other benefits except taking advantage of words, and there are no other benefits to smearing Logan, and the people in Marvel don't know who Logan is, they can't say it for three years, when this guy cries, even if he doesn't cry, he will regret hitting the wall, this is the real harm, even if Mark is poor, he will not anger this guy because of millions, and then affect the smooth progress of the transaction.

After saying a lot of empty words, Mark finally announced that he would provide an emergency loan to the company to tide over the difficulties, ensure that every employee gets paid before leaving work, and let everyone work with peace of mind.

This time finally won everyone's unanimous cheers and cheers, any words of encouragement or comfort are false, money is the most practical, the new boss because he is willing to spend money, easily won everyone's support.

Mark concluded: "Meghan and I have a party tonight at the Four Seasons Hotel in Madison Garden Plaza, and everyone is welcome to come and join us. ”

Mark and Meghan, in the warm applause of everyone, walked off the podium, warmly shook hands with everyone, expressed greetings, after saying that there was a salary to pay, everyone's mood was different, before the end of the work to receive the salary, such a guarantee was the previous management and shareholders did not dare to do, and there is a party to attend, which is also a very wonderful thing.

Among so many people in Marvel, Mark is not very interested in Stan Lee and Aland, the two old fritters, but he really wants to meet Kevin Feige, the general manager of Marvel Studios of Marvel Studios, the current Marvel Studios is only one of several major departments under Marvel, and it is almost a shell department, they themselves do not have enough funds to make movies, but there is a certain copyright share in Marvel movies such as "Spider-Man" and "X-Men", Kevin is one of the producers as a representative of Marvel, and the full name of Marvel Studios is "Marvel Entertainment" , was originally responsible for Marvel Comics, Marvel Animation, Marvel Movies and Marvel TV and other businesses, of which the CEO was Ike Parmutt, who was the immediate boss of Kevin Feige, the leader of Marvel Studios at that time.

Born in Boston, Massachusetts, and raised in Westfield, New Jersey, Kevin Feige studied as an intern at the University of Southern California with producer Lauren Schuller Donner, and after graduation, became Lauren's right-hand man.

Kevin is very proficient in Marvel Comics setting, Marvel Universe architecture and other related knowledge, and it is for this reason that Lauren Schuller Donner began to explore his abilities, so he appointed Kevin as an assistant producer of the first film in the "X-Men" series, and since then, Kevin Feige has served as the producer of almost all subsequent Marvel Comics film adaptations.

Mark directly crossed the CEO Ike and contacted the head of the studio below, which made several senior executives of Marvel Entertainment a little dissatisfied, especially the Ike who is known for his power and slamming the door, as the boss of Marvel Entertainment, one of the veterans and shareholders of Marvel, Ike is the leader of the six-person creative team.

Marvel CEO Kevin Feige has a lot of power, but he hired a "six-person creative team" of writers and executives to be responsible for the creation of the film, which is a bit like the "think tank" set up by Disney's Pixar animation studio, this six-person team will discuss the movie characters, plot line and style in advance before selecting the shooting director.
