Chapter Sixty-Four: The Air Is Getting Cold
Los Angeles, located in the downtown CBD plot, there is a place of high-rise buildings, including a building called the International Endeavour Center, which is 301.9 meters high and has 67 floors, second only to the famous Federal Bank Building, the tallest building in Los Angeles. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Los Angeles is located in the Pacific seismic zone, and the seismic requirements for buildings are high, which drives up the average construction cost of high-rise buildings, resulting in not many high-rise buildings in the city. The International Endeavour Center building is like a giant standing on the plain, overlooking this luxurious and prosperous land.
In 2017, Endeavour Entertainment Group bought a two-thirds stake in the building and renamed it the International Endeavour Center, a symbol of the group's unrivalry over Hollywood. As the world's No. 1 entertainment brokerage group with the fastest growth and the largest M&A scale in recent years, Endeavor has the confidence to do so.
The 60th floor of the building is the venue for tonight's meeting, but the people of Endeavour can't sit in the conference room and wait.
In fact, as soon as Li Zhe got out of the car, he was greeted by a group of senior executives of Endeavor Group, and in the crowd of greetings, he even saw a few familiar faces that are common in the media.
What does the agency do, those celebrities don't come out to support the scene at this time, when are they waiting. The famous big star Matt? Damon, Ben? Affleck, and supermodel Gigi? Hadid, Kendall? Jenna, a handsome guy and a beautiful woman, all came out.
This kind of scene of a brokerage company cannot be learned by ordinary enterprises.
The beauty of the supermodel is useless for tonight's negotiations, but Endeavor has undoubtedly lowered its posture by putting this on the table.
This made Li Zhe also look forward to the negotiations that would take place for a while.
The two supermodels accompanying him brought bursts of fragrant wind and rubbed people's hearts. But with Emma by his side, Li Zhe is not much interested, and Li Zhe is still a man with strange aesthetics, and it is difficult for a globally recognized supermodel like Gigi Hadid to attract his attention, but Kendall Jenner makes him a little interested, which is also the only one among the Kardashian sisters, the queen of global scandals, who can make him look good.
Accompanied by eye-catching beauties, take the elevator to the 60th floor, and after everyone sat down in the conference room, the idle people left one after another.
The president and executive officer of Endeavor Group, Patrick and Parker, said a lot of things to Li Zhe, but they didn't get to the point for a long time, until after a while, Li Zhe was surprised to see that even these two people walked out, and suddenly only his own side was left in the conference room.
Li Zhe thought about it, nodded, understood what the other party meant, and signaled that in addition to Yuan Yingying, the people around him also went out. My heart was pounding, and I knew that this time I finally saw the person hiding behind the oversized flash of William Morris Endeavour Entertainment International Management Group, the real person in power.
The other party behaved positively and made him very satisfied. As he expected.
At this time, the real operating rules under the surface of this world have finally been revealed to Li Zhe.
What is the real rule refers to the fact that the characters behind Endeavor Company are showing at this moment, which belongs to the rules formulated by the strong, and only the strong have the identity to play under this rule, and those ordinary people do not have the right to speak under such rules.
Even top managers like Patrick and Parker.
Workers are workers, and even taking a small number of management shares cannot change the fact that this group never belongs to them, and it will never be, and those who have no decision-making power in the management allotment are at most just a reward thrown to them by those behind the scenes, but it will never be possible for them to become masters.
This is very different from what most ordinary people perceive.
But ordinary people in this world don't understand that this world belongs to ordinary people and everyone on the surface, but in fact it can never be.
What democracy, what equality, is it possible to exist in the face of a truly powerful force? No, democracy and equality exist only between the equally powerful and powerful! To enjoy such rights, you first have to make yourself strong, otherwise, you are not even qualified to sit here.
Of course, such rules can only be enforced in the dark in this era, and cannot be exposed.
If you want to say why Li Zhe is here, is it just his pocket money of two or three billion US dollars, or is he a shareholder of Wells Fargo Management Group?
No, those are just identities on the surface, and only after contact will you know, and the truth is far from the case.
To be honest, many times the identity that everyone puts on the table is not worth mentioning at all, and what is really worth paying attention to is the power that both sides put under the table. That's the character who really counts and can make a sufficiently weighty exchange of interests.
His identity as a shareholder of Wells Fargo is like this, and the same is true of the other party's Endeavor Entertainment Group, which is just a bright dress to cover up when necessary.
Endeavor has been in contact with the forces behind Li Zhe from the beginning, so it knows the strong background behind Li Zhe, so it will never evaluate his weight with his strength on the table.
In the middle of the conference room, a gust of wind blew, this gust of wind came quite strangely, and then in the closed space, a person inexplicably appeared, a back, a black windbreaker, thin and slender, with a mysterious back.
The other person turned around.
When he landed, it was eye-catching, and Li Zhe suddenly had a feeling like seeing Ike again.
The other party's face and figure are all beautiful, and every movement and expression is like a carefully carved one, giving people an inexplicable inhuman weirdness.
Then Li Zhe noticed the other party's clothes, which was an old style that seemed to come from the Middle Ages!
Tuxedo, bow, beautiful neutral face, delicate facial features, pale almost transparent skin without a trace of blood, and that elegant, noble, meticulous manners similar to court etiquette! Everything was perfect and flawless! It's like a gorgeous and bleak scene in a nostalgic movie.
"It's an honor to meet you, you can call me William, Mylord!" The other party spoke.
Li Zhe noticed that the other party's address was mylord, which means my lord, and recognized the other party's dominance, of course, this is just a politeness here. It was an honorific title that only existed in the Middle Ages when people of low status spoke to the nobles. And the language used when speaking is a pure ancient Latin tone, with a mysterious and classical atmosphere, if it weren't for Li Zhe's talent for language, he wouldn't understand it.
The other party's every move is like an antique from the Middle Ages.
It's weird, it's weird.
Yuan Yingying has always been bold, but at this moment in this strange situation, she seems to be a little trembling, even as an international white-collar elite, after all, when she is not confident enough, she doesn't know whether it is cold or scared.
By the way, Li Zhe also noticed at this time that the indoor air had indeed become colder.
