330, the night is gentle (middle)
"Are you crazy?"
Although he knew that many of the guests in the hall would notice his absence at the same time as Dick, and this would bring much association to people after Jennifer provoked Dick in public before, and how many rumors about Disney's infighting circulated in the industry, Robert didn't care about these at all, and the impact of these concerns on him only made him instinctively lower his voice in the absolutely safe study, and angrily asked Dick, who was still indifferent, "Are you crazy?" □□y? Have you lost your mind? Involve your family in competition – what the hell are you thinking? ”
Yes, although in the competition in the industry, I have seen a lot of dirty work, and even arranged many traps for competitors with my own hands, but now Dick's suspicion is also strange enough for Robert and overrun: Big Dream used Brad's tax problems to get him out, OK, this is acceptable, although Robert will also sigh at Big Dream's ruthlessness, and will also have a cold feeling of losing his lips and teeth, check his own safety facilities, and make sure that Big Dream can't secretly master his handle, but overall this is still within the acceptable range, It's part of business, but using the kinship of Virgilia and Cesare would undoubtedly make it insecure, except in the very personal feud between enemies who don't share the same world, and use such tactics in ordinary intra-group competition? It was so unacceptable that Robert didn't even want to believe it was true—it didn't match what he knew about Dick, and if Dick did do such a thing, he wouldn't even dare to say he really knew him.
"Is that what they told you?" In contrast to Robert's anger, Dick was incredibly calm, and he asked rhetorically, "Do you believe that?" Bobby? Or is that what they make you believe? ”
What does that mean? Robert, who was a little overly excited, was stunned for a moment, only to realize the hint in Dick's words, and his anger did not ease because of this, but became more vigorous, "Are you avoiding the question?" Dick, want to confuse the focus? You think I've completely sided with Jennifer and her fiancé? If that's the case, why am I asking you? Do I still need to ask? Now stop all this senseless madness, and stop looking for the moral high ground - tell me, is what I guess true? Are you asking Virgilia to find out what the big dream is, and has it all been made private? If that's true, then after all this, you still want to find the moral high ground? Geez, it's—"
He couldn't go on, because Dick was not affected by his emotions at all, and was still terrifyingly calm, and he just spread his hands and continued the conversation with rhetorical questions in response to Robert's urging on his face.
"If they didn't tell you that, then why would you be so skeptical, Bob? If that's what they told you - then, tell me, what about the evidence? ”
Robert hadn't had the urge to punch someone in years, but now he really wanted to punch Dick in the face: it was a complete scoundrel, and it was clear that Dick had no intention of communicating properly, even if he did produce evidence - of course it couldn't be, how could there be evidence for such a thing? Besides, family scandals must not be publicized after all—and even if there was evidence, Dick would certainly have a way of denying or denying it. - From the beginning, Dick didn't intend to solve the problem, yes, now he realized it, Dick had been waiting for this moment to appear, it wasn't a moment of confusion, it wasn't a stupid thing to do, and he didn't dare to face it in despair, so he made one mistake after another, no, it wasn't at all, he was already going to tear his face with himself, so he simply perfunctory himself and let everything go with the flow...... He is ready to fight with him, and may even have privately contacted Roy and other shareholders to want another vote of no confidence and kick himself out.
Once he realized this, it was like a cold spring flowing through his heart, Robert's anger suddenly disappeared, and at the same time, a bone-chilling cold arose at the same time, he turned around and walked to the wine cabinet, opened a bottle of wine with a large movement, so as to maintain the momentum of anger, and also through the disguise of the action, observed Dick's expression through the glass cabinet door, and thought nervously: When did Dick start planning all this? Is this seemingly crazy move part of a larger plan? Does he want to make a ruling that favors big dreams? Big Dream didn't sue him, which should be something that Dick can't calculate, so Dick is counting on standing on Big Dream's side after knowing the inside story, and then what?
Did Dick contact Roy, and did he point out that his support and favoritism for Big Dream was too dangerous? Was there a fundamental mistake in his questioning of Dick at the time? Richard. Of course Cook wants to do it, in fact, he doesn't want to do it at all - he not only wants to do it, but he also wants to do it better, to do it further, he wants to do the job of CEO of the group as well, from beginning to end, he doesn't mind that he is too partial to Big Dream, but that he has been working as a CEO for a little too long!
This more reasonable and interesting speculation is obviously more in line with Robert's taste than Dick suddenly going crazy and crossing almost everyone's bottom line and doing such a thing, so many years of experience in the mall have also made him instinctively more willing to believe in this more complicated possibility, watching the wine gurgling into the glass, just the time to pour a glass of wine, Robert has completely calmed down, and found the ideal way to deal with it: he likes to see it before making a statement, but this does not mean that he will lack determination at the critical moment- Especially at critical moments with his vital interests!
"I don't care what your internal reasons are for doing this, or if it's you or not," he said flatly, holding a wine glass in his hand, however, although his overall attitude was still high-handed, even slightly angry, his tone had softened, and it was even more faintly intimate, "The point now is that the acquisition of Marvel has reached a critical moment, and the group will never accept failure, so Jennifer - at least at this moment, is indeed very important to us - and she has decided that this matter is your fault and Virgilia, So I need you to apologize to her, Dick, you are my successor, the future COO and CEO, this is the sacrifice you have to make for the group. ”
Dick's expression moved slightly, as if he had captured the message released by Robert, Robert secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and still maintained a stern attitude, "Don't care who is right and who is wrong tonight, the only thing is that the madness must be stopped now, I am holding this party to let everyone know that Disney is a big and harmonious family, not to put on a wonderful show for them!" Now I'm going to bring Jennifer in, I need you to reconcile here, understand? All people need to know is that the communication between the headquarters and Big Dream has gone wrong, and now everything is fine - at least until the DreamWorks and Marvel acquisitions are completed, we are very stable internally, you know what I mean, Dick? ”
"Understood." Dick nodded, a thoughtful look for the first time, and began to bargain for the first time, "So, the fairy tale series in collaboration with Big Dream-"
"Talk as much as you can, talk as much as you can," Robert glared at Dick, "although your masterpiece has made Big Dream definitely wary of the main part by now, but try to mend the rift as much as possible, talk more, talk more, no matter what, make sure to make "OZ", and we'll talk about the rest later." ”
It was clear that the expression on Dick's face was changing, and he seemed to be weighing whether Robert's words were true or false, and weighing the benefits he might have in the new situation—after a while, something seemed to dissolve on his face, and Dick's tone was filled with emotion for the first time, "I'll try, but I can't guarantee anything, because it's not up to me, you know, Bob, it's up to the mad girl." ”
"You do your best, and I'll take care of the rest." Robert said briefly, "Sit here and enjoy a glass of wine, and you'll be in for a good job when you come in." ”
He didn't talk any more nonsense, but walked out of the study, hurried to the corner of the stairs, grabbed a waiter and gave a few orders, and soon Jennifer was led by the waiter.
"Bob." She said, not pretending to be surprised, her attitude was calm and clear, and from her eyes, Robert could see that Jennifer knew exactly what was going on, and fully knew how she interpreted her provocation, and what was the purpose of calling her now, in his own words, there was no ineffective communication at all, all in one look, and this communication was even very Zen.
"You didn't bring the Chesa?" Robert still decided to give it a try.
Still wearing a red dress that looked like a battle robe, wearing aggressive diamond jewelry, but at this moment Jennifer seemed so calm and mysterious, she replied to Robert's inquiry with an elegant side head and a smile in her eyes.
- After all, it has something to do with Virgilia, so it's a bit inappropriate to bring Cesare over for a showdown, right?
It was this graceful and measured smile, with a hint of sly and kindness, that helped Robert finally make up his mind, and he nodded, turned and grabbed Jennifer, shoved her into the nearest empty room, and closed the door with his backhand.
"Listen, I'm taking you to Dick now, he's in my study, I need you to work with me to steady him and behave like you, just like you just did, but after Dick gives his explanation, and I persuade you, you have to be persuaded by me, so that Dick can feel that your hostility towards him is gone, and the cooperation between the two sides can continue. Do you understand? Our partnership with DreamWorks was just beginning, and it was Dick who made it happen, and at least now I don't want him to leave right away, and he might take the whole contract with him - but he has to be out. ”
"When?" Jennifer stopped smiling, and she looked at Robert with a hint of nervousness - which made Robert quite comfortable, and finally, he felt like he was back in control.
"Before the Marvel takeover was negotiated." He said flatly, "This matter can't let him get involved, before that, we must kick him out - this whole "Hunger Games" is his conspiracy, Dick is worried about the future, he wants to make an early effort, let me make room before the aura of DreamWorks has expired, now it is all very clear, Jennifer, he has lost confidence, he is afraid that in the next few years, the performance of the headquarters will become more and more disgraced, he will also lose this position as the prince of the East Palace, so he needs to plan an artificial generational change- He has to go, and in this matter we have to agree on a unified position. ”
As everyone knows, Disney movies are of great significance to the whole group, basically, the candidates who can be the CEO of the Disney group will come from Disney movies, so the outside world has indeed always regarded Dick as Robert's successor, and even many times, many businesses have to report to Robert and Dick at the same time, and the same is true for the offensive of DreamWorks and Marvel, once Dick has also managed to take some credit for the acquisition of Marvel, he will become even stronger - of course, For Jennifer, all it takes is a 'can't let him get involved in this matter' for her to fully understand.
"You've got me, Bob." Jennifer really didn't need any explanation, she whispered in understanding, her green eyes glowing in the darkness, "What do you want me to do?" ”
"After a while, I'm going to make Dick feel that though I'm outwardly biased towards you, I'm actually biased toward him, and I want you to understand that even though I seem to be fundamentally biased toward Dick—" said Robert, and Jennifer finished for him, "You want Dick to know that you're only holding me steady for the time being, and you want me to know that you're only holding him steady for the time being." ”
"Yes, I still need you to be superficial," said Robert, hurriedly, "which is in keeping with what Dick always knew of you—I don't need him to feel anything wrong. ”
"Understood." Jennifer said simply, with a small, pretty smile, "Don't worry, Bob, it's my forte." ”
Robert looked at her for a moment, and suddenly realized that he had been more cautious about her than he had with Dick, □□ Y was troublesome, but he could handle it after all—but Jennifer, Jennifer...... Jennifer sometimes gave him the feeling he was very unsure of himself, if she was Dick, if she was sitting in Dick's place......
Shaking his head, shaking off his senseless reverie, he nodded calmly at Jennifer, patted her thin shoulder, and walked out of the room first.
- So he missed the mysterious smile that appeared on Jennifer's lips when he turned around.
The pretty, elegant, sparkling girl lifted her toes and seemed to take a cautious step—and then took another step.
In the field, I used a computer with five strokes, and I didn't say anything, and went to sleep sadly
