And it's not just Hollywood, the entire American news media has embraced him.At this time, he is fully capable of being called an American news tycoon.Thinking about it, as long as this news is announced, it will definitely fall through the glasses of many people.
Although the richest man was full of disdain for these American capitalists at this time, on the surface, he still showed enough kindness.
"The rest of the matter, I would like to trouble everyone to make an announcement to inform the company's management on behalf of the former board of directors, telling them that the handover of the board of directors has been completed. In addition, I have already booked the Hilton Hotel today, I believe you should give me face , welcome to come."
"Of course, of course." The directors have no reason to refuse, and they are not qualified to refuse.Including the successors of the former News Corporation, the Murdoch family all responded to Wang's richest man's invitation again and again.And just as they were chatting happily like this, an assistant suddenly broke in and yelled at them.
"Sir, it's bad. The top management, led by the CEO, came over and asked the board to listen to them and reject this acquisition!"
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
"Reject the acquisition?" Hearing such a sensitive word, the richest man raised his brows, and turned his attention to the original shareholders behind him. "Is this an opinion of one of you? If so, why wasn't it brought up earlier?"
"Misunderstanding, all of this is a misunderstanding." The shareholders who have already obtained the money and completely converted their assets into strong RMB now dare not offend such an existence as the richest man Wang.So they nodded and bowed immediately, explaining in a respectful enough manner. "This is definitely something that was stirred up by those guys in the management. CEO Wharton has always had a special discrimination against the Chinese. He has been dragging his feet since the beginning of the deployment of the mainland strategy. Now the company's performance has dropped a large part It's his responsibility. We have taught him a lesson before. We thought this guy could restrain himself a little at this time, but I didn't expect him to do such a thing at this time. Don't worry, Mr. Wang, we will definitely give you An account."
"Give me an explanation?" Hearing this explanation, Wang Shoufu's face immediately changed color.Especially when he heard that the CEO actually discriminated against the Chinese, his eyes showed a cold look.This made him say very bluntly immediately. "No need, your current identities can't give me an explanation. Didn't he want to ask for an explanation? Let him in, I want to see what kind of explanation he wants to ask for!"
After all, 21st Century Fox already belongs to Wang's richest man, which in disguise is equivalent to him controlling the fate of the entire company's employees.So even if the assistant didn't get any hints from any of the shareholders, he still made a bold decision at this time.That is to do as the richest man said.
He pushed open the door and let in a crowd of people who were crowded outside.And just after Wharton, the CEO of 21st Century Fox, walked in with a group of people, he immediately closed the door and called the security department eagerly.
In his view, the dust has settled, and no matter how hard the management struggles, it is absolutely impossible to resist the order of the board of directors.There have always been only high-level managers who have packed their bags, and there have been no big directors who have not been kicked out by the management.So how to choose is an obvious question at all.
CEO Wharton doesn't know what a little guy like an assistant thinks.He only knew that he could never let a Chinese settle in Fox, so as soon as he walked in, he shouted at all the shareholders at the top of his voice.
"Gentlemen, you can't do this. You can't just sell the company without discussing it with management. It's not in the rules, and it's not in the interest of all of us. It's impossible for all employees, up and down the company. I promised you such behavior. Therefore, no matter what you have done, you must stop now!"
"Mr. Wharton, you are just a professional manager hired by us. You don't have the qualifications to decide what we should do. The equity transaction of the board of directors is our own behavior, which belongs to our freedom. You can't do it in any way. violate our freedom."
As soon as Wharton said such a thing, some shareholders immediately refuted him.In their opinion, if this bastard didn't get involved suddenly, they could still establish a certain friendship with Wang's richest man.Judging from the current situation, if they can hug the thigh of the richest man, then they will obviously be able to obtain huge benefits in the future.This is a good thing they have dreamed of for a long time, and now, this bastard has ruined it all.So naturally, their hearts were full of resentment towards him, and even the way they spoke became rude.
Although the CEO is just a part-time employee, he is the top of the entire management after all.This is a pivotal figure, not only for the employees of the entire company, but also for the directors of these boards.So most of the time, people will be willing to sell him a face.Even when there was a problem with the performance of the entire company, the company's board of directors did not use any harsh words against him, but now, the company's directors actually started to talk to him with this attitude, which really surprised him .
why?Are the people on the board crazy?Almost involuntarily, such thoughts popped up in Wharton's mind.And when he saw the richest man Wang standing in the middle of the board of directors, he immediately blamed him for everything.And this made him immediately yell at Wang's richest man.
"It's you, it must be you, what did you say in the board of directors, what kind of ecstasy did you give them? Wang, let me tell you, I know what the hell you're up to. You want to put Fox Become your own? With me here, don’t even think about it. I will never let a Chinese settle in Fox, you can give up! You can’t get anything you want here, you can do it , all you have to do is go back to your trash dump honestly!"
Wharton thought that everything was not a foregone conclusion, so the way he spoke was also very blunt.And the reason why he used such almost verbal attacks against the richest man was not only because he wanted to vent his anger, but also because he wanted to embarrass the richest man in this way.
In his opinion, in such a short period of time, the richest man Wang and the members of the board of directors have at most reached a basic intention.Before the final agreement is signed, the attitude and intention of both parties are the key to whether an absolute agreement can be reached.But at this time, as long as he embarrassed the richest man, he would not be able to hold his head up in the entire company.Then it is almost certain that, as a wealthy Chinese man, he must not be able to continue this kind of negotiation.
Although capitalists are shameless, it is behind their backs.On the bright side, they cherish these things on the face more than most people.
It can be said that Wharton's calculation is very good.He himself praised his quick wit.However, when he saw the inexplicable smile on Wang Shoufu's face and the strange expressions on the faces of those shareholders, he suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.
Is there something that I haven't noticed?He couldn't help asking himself, but he couldn't get an answer at all.Moreover, he who has already done such a thing obviously has no turning back.So immediately, he said in an even harsher tone.
"What are you looking at, you yellow-skinned monkey. Do you think we're going to make you the master of USA Network? Don't even think about it, we're noble Americans, and we're never going to let a monkey sit on our heads superior."
If the previous words were just metaphorical sarcasm, the current words are definitely a personal attack with obvious racial discrimination.And as long as such a sentence is said, even if it is based on the current national conditions of the United States, it will definitely cause an uproar in public opinion.
There is no other reason. In any case, Wharton is also a well-known figure. 21 The CEO of Fox is almost a person who is used as the front of the news media. If such a person shows any obvious racial discrimination attitude, it is impossible for other ethnic groups in the whole country to forgive him.At that time, not only will he be unlucky, but Fox will also suffer.
However, since he said this sentence, of course he has nothing to fear.First of all, everyone here did not take out their mobile phones to take pictures, and there is no camera in the shareholder meeting room, so there is no physical evidence to prove that he said these words.And the testimony of the witnesses is even more so. Those behind him are all his subordinates, and of course they will stand by his side.As for the shareholders, even if they have any opinion on him.With the richest man Wang about to leave in anger, it is absolutely impossible for them to do anything to self-destruct the Great Wall.Wharton was sure of that, so he was completely safe.
However, what he didn't expect was that his approach did not bring him everything he wanted, but instead made him fall into the abyss in an instant.
"Mr. Wharton. I originally thought that as the CEO of 21st Century Fox, you should be a noble person first in terms of character and morality. But now it seems that you are not like this. As a news media company CEO, you actually have such obvious racist tendencies, which makes me doubt whether you are qualified to continue to sit in this position. No, this is no longer a suspicion. It is affirmation, I am sure you do not have such qualifications So I hereby solemnly announce to you that you have been fired. At least before the end of work today, I hope the board of directors can receive your resignation. Otherwise, I will make your racially discriminatory news public and force you to leave Fox .Do you get me?"
The sudden words of Wang's richest man immediately made Wharton's brain a little short.He looked at the shareholders, and after seeing the smiles on their faces, he immediately felt regretful.However, there is no regret medicine in this world.So he could only hold his neck and speak forcefully.
"Fire me, you are not a member of the company's board of directors, you are not qualified to do that!"
"No, of course he is qualified to do so." Murdoch's representative in the company, who was also the largest shareholder of 21st Century Fox, raised his voice at this time. "Just now, we have completed the equity transfer agreement with Mr. Wang. He now owns 50.00% of Fox's shares. In other words, he has absolute control over the entire 21st Century Fox. So, like him As you said, Wharton. You have been fired. Even if it is for your own good, you should submit your resignation honestly and don't embarrass us all! Don't embarrass these people around you!"
As soon as these words came out, the scene froze instantly.
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
Almost everyone present was staring at CEO Wharton, and almost everyone was waiting for his answer.
Of course, people with different identities have different mentalities.Like those shareholders, they are purely using a joke mentality to face Wharton's answer.For them, the moment Wharton brought people over to force the palace, they had already split in camp.In the eyes of these shareholders, Wharton's actions undermined their interests.For the capitalists who are based on interests, this is enough for them to consider Wharton as his enemy.And since it is an enemy, then naturally there is nothing to say.
Just watching his jokes is considered kind to him.It would have been nice if he hadn't hit him hard.
That's the mindset those shareholders have with Wharton.As for the other managers, they are almost all worried that Wharton will drag them down.
You know, Wharton's situation is now doomed.He offended the major shareholders of the board of directors, and he used it to kill himself.No matter who it is, it is impossible to change the encounter he will face.And just like Murdoch's people said, either he will go by himself, or he will be thrown out.There is no third possibility.
And now that such a time has come, as long as Wharton's mind is a little darker, he will never show mercy to those who were originally in the same boat as him.After all, people have inferior roots.Some people may leave the hope of life to others when they are facing extinction, but some people are more willing to drag others into hell together at this time.
How he will choose, no one knows.So almost all the management is praying, praying that this bastard will show mercy at this time and let them go?
And will Wharton do it?To be honest, he was also tangled in his heart.
If it was his usual behavior, the matter would have reached such an irreversible point.No matter what, he would never let go of these guys who were on the same boat.Why can they stay in Fox safely, but they have to get out of here desolately.There is no such statement in this world.Even if it is death, everyone should die together.
But now, I don't know why.Perhaps it was because he was so shocked in his heart that some circuits in his brain were abnormal for a while.Just when he was about to do this, he felt a little compassion for the subordinates around him.
And as soon as this kind of compassion came out, he immediately found many reasons for them to be sympathetic.
He knows that the current economic downturn in the United States, if they are cleared out by the board of directors, it is almost impossible for these management personnel to find a suitable job in Hollywood.Because unless their abilities are worth other Hollywood giants taking the risk of offending Fox, no one will give them such a chance.
And left Hollywood, left the world's best platform.what can they doWharton didn't know the answer, but he knew that his subordinates would suffer heavy losses.That can't be made up for by a few years of hard work. To put it more seriously, it is likely to affect their entire lives.
So, do you really want to do this?Is it really necessary for me to be this bad guy?Wharton, whose heart softened, quickly gave himself an answer.And this answer made him sigh a long time, and then said to the richest man in a dispirited manner.
"I know what to do. I'll go clean up my office and hand in my resignation to you before I get off work today, Mr. Wang."
"You have finally made a wise decision, Mr. Wharton. Since you are so witty, I will show you some sympathy. According to the original contract you signed with the company, I will let you know how much liquidated damages you need to pay. The finances are paid to you on the books. As for your racial discrimination issue? I can also let you go. However, there is one thing I must clarify. The agreement between me and the board of directors was reached on the plane Intent, sign it as soon as you get off the plane. In theory, even if you know a little bit, it is absolutely impossible to come and protest in such a short period of time. So, who is encouraging you to do this? of?"
A very interesting question, but enough to make all the management tense up again.Of course, the reason they were afraid was because they were worried that Wharton would go crazy and randomly bite out a few people for liquidated damages.After all, there is no proof, and they can get sky-high liquidated damages as long as they open their mouths. They really have no reason to believe that Wharton will not do this.
But in the end, they still underestimated Wharton.Now that he has said that, it is naturally impossible for him to talk back.So he just grinned, and then said very indifferently.
"No one else. I noticed you from the moment you met. I have seen the actions of the financial department, and I can easily think of what you are doing. I thought your speed should be slow The previous step was right. But I didn’t expect you to be so fast. This was my mistake, if I had known this earlier, I wouldn’t have done such a stupid thing so easily.”
"You may be right, but unfortunately, there will never be a second chance for anything." Seeing that Wharton still said so at this time, the richest man just waved his hand, and did not intend to talk to him again. He counted it down. "Get out of here as soon as possible. I hope this is the last time I see you. If I see you here next time, Mr. Wharton, believe me, I won't let the security guard be polite to you."
The tone of Wang's richest man was very bad, but Wharton couldn't comment on his tone.After all, he asked for everything. He knew very well how hurtful the words he said before were.If it is said that a Jewish boss is here, then maybe there are security guards here now and throw him out.
To do so is already benevolent.So he can't be more demanding. At this time, he can only say to the richest man with a wry smile.
"Of course, I know what I should do. But I want to remind you, Mr. Wang. Don't think that you are safe if you do this. You know, the US government will not be indifferent to the big moves of foreign capital like you Yes. You'd better hope that you didn't violate any laws by doing this, otherwise, those people at the Securities Regulatory Commission will definitely make all your actions come to naught."
"I have my own calculations, and you don't need to worry about it. Please, Mr. Wharton."
Having said that, it is obvious that there is no need to continue.So just sneered for a while, Wharton shook his head and walked outside.But when he was leaving, he suddenly took a meaningful look at the president of [-]th Century Fox.Such a special expression immediately made him feel like sitting on pins and needles.
