Chapter 229 Recruiting Staff

For Mark, this year has never been smoother, with movie hits, mergers and acquisitions of Marvel, and a lot of money by pulling MJ, and now moving into a new company, which is more than three times larger than the current one, in the Williams Tower in the 50-storey Williams Commercial Center, there are six special elevators on the 40th to 46th floors, one on each floor.

This is completely the style of a large company, and all the companies under MM, Marvel Film and Television, are all gathered together, which is convenient for nearby management.

And Mark's office is no longer as shabby as the nine floors and five rooms of McConaughey Films, covering an area of more than 250 square meters, this time it was designed by Meghan, it is completely a mansion in the sky, with all the facilities in it, and there is a swimming pool of more than 80 square meters, which shows how luxurious it is.

And Meghan's vice president's office is opposite, to Mark's strange thing is that Meghan has drawn four such offices, but the other four are empty and have not yet been renovated, Meghan said that she is ready to recruit some strongmen to join.

In Los Angeles, New York, these big cities, apartments in high-rise buildings are more expensive than villas, rich people can afford to live, if there is no one-story apartment in the city center, they are embarrassed to call themselves rich, this situation has changed after 911, and the World Trade Tower, which collapsed in the smoke, has become a lingering nightmare in the hearts of the United States.

Terrorists hijack airplanes, the most cost-effective way is to hit those high-rise buildings, if you hit those one- or two-story villas, it is not cost-effective and difficult to hit, out of this trend of thinking, the market of apartments in high-rise buildings has fallen, far less than villas are in demand.

MM is one of the first companies to enter, and now there are more than half of the floor shops have not been rented out, the owners of this commercial center in order to attract MM to enter, promised a lot of favorable conditions, MM is a well-known film company in the country, and now it is in the limelight, for such a star enterprise to enter, the advertising effect is obvious.

The number of Mark's assistants increased to four, one each by Caroline and Billy's side. After the TV series, these dramas were piled up on his office countertop, as many as 500 copies, which was completely scary rhythm, if it was an ordinary person, he would definitely not know how to choose, and Mark's golden finger began to exert his power, the good ones sold were checked, and the bad ones were directly vetoed, and they bought more than 30 dramas in one fell swoop at a relatively favorable price to enrich their drama library, just like those big companies, which one's script library does not have hundreds of scripts to use?

Since MM successfully released "Love Notebook", there are as many as 50 projects to come to the door, of which 18 seek distribution, more than 30 seek investment, Mark looked at these more than 50 projects, none of them were big sellers, Ji Tai is losing money, I can't help but sigh the difficulties of the film industry, it is rumored that among the hundreds of movies released every year, at least eighty percent are losing money, this kind of talk is really not nonsense, Mark If he does not have a gold finger, it is absolutely difficult to pass all the way and rise rapidly.

When it comes to Goldfinger, Mark has to admire Disney, this company is like having Goldfinger, as the only company in the Hollywood Big Eight that has not been traded, after experiencing the turmoil of replacing Michael, under the leadership of the new leader Iger, the merger and acquisition of Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm, plus the original Miramax Films, Timon Pictures, Walt Disney, Touchstone, Hollywood and other brands form the largest media group in the United States, with a market value of more than 160 billion, which is more valuable than Viacom Group and News Corporation.

When Mark was bombed by the World 7, there was even a rumor that Disney would acquire the Twentieth Century Fox film business, in fact, this kind of rumor exists every year in the United States, the former head of News Corporation, Mei Duo, has been trying to buy the old enemy Time Warner Group, Comcast acquired Warner, foreign capital acquired Paramount, etc., there is never a shortage of this kind of gossip, but this time the difference is that News Corp intends to sell.

Egger as a key person in the development of this group, if he either has a golden finger, or a super powerful professional manager, a real aircraft carrier helmsman strongman, and now this management strongman was exiled to Paris because of the failure of the fight with Michael, the latest rumors are that he is negotiating with Michael to get a resignation compensation and leave.

Mark had the intention to recruit this person, but he was afraid that the shop would be small and small, and people would look down on him, and he was afraid that his prestige and power would not be enough to subdue this person, so he found Megan, and they sat on the coffee table by the pool, drinking afternoon tea, looking at the city in the distance, this kind of condescending, the feeling of the earth under my feet is quite good, no wonder so many people like high-rise apartments, this is forty-six stories high! Even Mark, who has become a little restrained recently, has become radiant and said: " One day, I'll buy the entire Williams Business Center, which will be ours, and I'll turn it into MM Center. ”

This commercial center is worth two billion US dollars, and its controlling party is the famous Williams Construction Group, a well-known Fortune 500 company, and one of the top 10 real estate developers in China.

Mark can't afford it now, but after Brother Gu and Facebook explode, it will be a small problem.

Meghan didn't think it was a big deal, her father's 100 billion empire was just her and David's two heirs, if her father agreed, she could afford it now, she could see that Mark was happy, and said: "Of course! We started with less than 20 million, and in less than three years, we have created MM worth more than 1 billion, as long as we want, this place is ours." ”

They smiled at each other and touched their teacups.

Mark said: "Since the acquisition of Marvel, the work under me is becoming more and more numerous, and I am also a producer and filming, I am a little overwhelmed, my director is production and filming, and the administrative management is very layman, especially Marvel is a listed company, I don't even know how to engage in a double-tier stock structure of stocks, Jessica and Caroline's experience is still shallow, and it is not enough to take on the big responsibility, I mean please ask a smart manager, manage MM, what do you think?"

Meghan said: "No problem, Larry reminded me of this problem before the acquisition of Marvel, I am worse than you, I have actually worked for so many years, and I found that I have a lot to learn." ”

Mark said: "Yes, in fact, this is not a shame, not the same is true of a large enterprise like Brother Gu, they have decided to hire a professional manager to manage this company!"

Megan said, "Who are your candidates?"

Mark said: "Former Disney chairman, CEO Iger!" This is a big celebrity in Hollywood, and Mark doesn't even have to take out his resume.

Megan smiled: "You also think too highly of MM, right? He used to be in charge of more than 60 billion large enterprises, and now he is down, but the market value of Disney Resort Paris in charge is far above our MM." ”

Mark said: "Please, please ask the best, how do you know if it's okay if you don't try? He won't have a good life at Disney, unless Michael dies." ”

Megan said: "This is a capable man, his asking price will not be low!" Egg is no stranger to Megan, Iger and Joe are friends, and Joe and Larry are friends in life and death, they have met several times.

Mark said, "I'm sure you have a way to get in touch with him, so why don't you ask out for a cup of coffee?"

Megan said: "No problem, I also want to reduce the pressure of my work." Meghan stopped talking, hesitated, and said, "There is something I want to ask for your support." ”

Mark jokingly said, "Who will you hit this time?"

Meghan couldn't help but laugh, she remembered that the first time they discussed, she deliberately provoked trouble and asked Mark to fix the little plum.

Megan calls Joe's helper and asks him to test Egger's tone and arrange a meeting if the other party is interested.

Egger happened to be on vacation, and agreed to meet once, at a private club, Egger's recent days have not been easy, Michael's hostility towards him is undisguised, as one of Disney's bigwigs, serving this group for almost 30 years, he is in a class of his own, there are many people who follow him to eat, these people have been hit and excluded.

The assets in Egger's hands, even if he retires now, can allow him to live a good life, the problem is that he doesn't want to retire so soon, his friends and subordinates have a family to support, almost everyone knows that staying at Disney, there is basically no way out, Michael is now firmly in control of the company, Iger is trying to fight for a golden parachute to leave, he has served the group for thirty years, almost all his career is here, this is what he deserves, but the price between the two sides is not negotiable.

This meeting was arranged by Qiao, the bareheaded, glassless president of Pingguo Company gave a public lecture to both parties and left, Mark really wanted to chat with this cowman, but the other party came and went, very busy, arranged this meeting, completely based on the living niece's points, for Mark, he was not very interested.

Egger had a hard time, but it didn't show it, he was still polite, full of confidence, and everything was under control.

Mark and Meghan are not business veterans, and they don't understand this set of temptations and false stories, Mark is expressing his appreciation for him and revealing the meaning of the trick.

Iger wasn't surprised, either.

Meghan said, "Do you think we're not doing our best?"

In fact, since "The Hangover", I have paid attention to you, this is the company with the most potential development after DreamWorks, you have a good enough film production like Mark, and you have strong enough contacts and financing channels to develop it over time, and you have a lot of fun, which is an honor." ”

This is not entirely a lie, he is at the level of the president of the Big Seven companies, but since the "failed coup d'Γ©tat", Michael has said a lot of good things for him, his reputation and worth are not as good as before, and the wind of preparing to change jobs came from him, but MM was the first to recruit.

Thank you Tuhao book friends, the happiest thing is that you are fatter than me 50,000 starting coins reward, thank you!
