Reborn Tycoon Rise

Roy Disney didn't take it seriously and sneered: "Mr. Xu, these words are just used to deceive those politicians. There is no point in talking to me."

"Okay, if that's the case, let me tell you straight." Xu Zhi nodded and said, "The purpose of my acquisition of Disney is to value the huge potential of this company. In this regard, Ron Miller simply does not have the ability to do it for me. I need to tap the potential of the company, otherwise Disney won’t be able to acquire it, so I hope you can help me.”

Roy Disney smiled and said, "Why should I help you?"

"Because this is the Disney Company, the glory of your Disney family." Xu Zhi said with a smile: "I acquired Disney for the huge economic value of its existence. This requires huge cultural operations to realize, and you are the same as Mr. Walt Disney. , all possess such talents.

Although the company is mine, Glory belongs to Disney, right? "

The Disney family is not very prosperous, but the entire family has a high talent for animation in their genes. In the original history, when Ron Miller was in power, Roy Disney kept a low profile until Mike Ice After Na came on stage, Roy immediately used his remaining energy to plan many classic business cards for Disney, such as "The Little Mermaid", "Beauty and the Beast", "Aladdin", and "The Lion King".

Roy Disney's contribution is indispensable for the rise of Disney in later generations.

Roy Disney shook his head and said, "Your logic is bastard!"

"That's not necessarily the case." Xu Zhi said with a smile: "Roy, even if I don't acquire the Disney Company, how much connection does Disney still have with your family?

Your uncle Walt Disney's dream was to build Disney parks around the world so that everyone around the world could see Disney animations and let everyone know the Disney brand.

But can you do it? Even if it is possible in the future, how many years will it take? And now I am willing to provide funds to realize Mr. Walt Disney’s dream as soon as possible. Isn’t this cooperation a win-win situation for both parties? "

After hearing this, Roy looked at Xu Zhi and asked, "So, you are not going to acquire any more shares held by our Disney family?"

Xu Zhi smiled and said: "No, I still want to acquire it, because I will also inject a large amount of capital into Disney in the future. If there are other shareholders, there will be a lot of disputes.

But you can rest assured that according to my agreement with the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, Disney will definitely be re-listed within five years. By then, anyone in the Disney family will be able to obtain the right of first refusal at an absolutely low price, and will be able to establish new companies in the future. ’s board of directors, you could be on it too. "

"This..." Roy Disney couldn't help but think deeply after hearing this. After a moment, he asked: "Based on your tone before, Ron Miller must leave the Disney Company?"

Xu Zhi nodded and said: "Not bad."

Ron Miller was once one of Disney's most outstanding talents, and then fell in love with Walt Disney's daughter, and entered Disney's senior management, and even now becomes the CEO of the entire Disney.

But the facts have proven that Ron Miller is not suitable to run the entire Disney Company.

The reason why Xu Zhi personally attracted Roy Disney was not only because Roy was an excellent animator, but also because his surname was Disney.

When a company is merged and acquired, the biggest worry is that internal rumors are flying all over the place. It has only been more than ten years since Walt Disney passed away. At this moment, there are still a large number of people inside Disney who are heroes of Walt's era. If he comes in and destroys the entire company, All members of the Disney family, so there is no guarantee that these people will leave with them.

The Disney Company is already in trouble, and Xu Zhi certainly doesn't want to find trouble. At present, maintaining the stability of Disney is the top priority, not to mention that Roy Disney himself is a powerful character.

Roy Disney asked: "Then I wonder who will be the CEO after Ron?"

Xu Zhi smiled and said, "Why don't you take on this position?"

Roy Disney shook his head and said: "I'm not suitable for this position. I don't have the ability. But I can recommend someone."

"Who?" Xu Zhi asked.

"Mike Eisner." Roy said: "He is the vice president of Paramount's film production business and a close friend of mine. He is very capable. If Mr. Xu believes in me, you can meet with him. Know whether what I say is true or false.”

"Okay, then after we go to Disney headquarters together, you can make an appointment and arrange an interview." Xu Zhi was very satisfied with Roy's sincerity.

After Walt Disney passed away, Ron Miller was able to become the CEO of Disney. The big reason was that Roy believed that he was more suitable for creating animations rather than being a CEO.

Later in 1984, the entire Disney company suffered serious losses under the leadership of Ron Miller. Roy Disney united with some forces and successfully forced the board of directors to agree to re-elect the management team, but he did not take advantage of the opportunity. , but invited Mike Eisner to serve as CEO, and he himself is still the head of the animation department.

"Shall I go to the company headquarters with you?" Roy Disney was not a fool, he understood what the other party meant.

"Yes, is there any problem?" Xu Zhi asked with a smile.

Roy Disney shook his head and said, "No problem."

"Okay, let's go." Xu Zhi stood up and said with a smile.

…

Disney's headquarters is located in Burbank, California. It is a 30-storey office building. The exterior has begun to become outdated and has a history of more than 40 years. It has been in use since World War II.

Knowing that Xu Zhi and his party were coming, the Disney Company had already made preparations. The first people to greet him were Vice President Alan Walker, who met Xu Zhi last time in New York, and Peter. Peter, who had already come first. Sen.

Peter's team has officially entered Disney, but will not participate in future management. Instead, it will collaborate with a New York City accounting firm to conduct a top-to-bottom inspection of the entire company's finances to facilitate the new financial team to take over in the future. All problems can be clarified smoothly.

As for Alan Walker, Xu Zhi also understands his thoughts. Unfortunately, the position of Disney's president will not be handed over to him. The best candidate is Mike Eisner. After all, later generations have proven this. In the absence of a prophet, Despite this situation, Disney has still become the world's number one entertainment giant.

However, there are also disadvantages to using Mike Eisner. In the original history, this person was too strong and regarded the entire Disney as his back garden.

Xu Zhi has controlled Disney in this life. Although this kind of thing will not happen, Eisner's character determines that he will inevitably pursue "freedom". In order to prevent this, there must be someone capable within the Disney company. Someone who can check and balance him.

As for the current CEO of Disney, Walt Disney’s son-in-law, Mr. Ron Miller, he had long negotiated and communicated with Peter. Knowing that he could not continue to manage Disney, he reached an agreement with Peter to withdraw from the management of Disney. , and at the same time sold the Disney shares in his hands to Blackstone Fund at a high price.

Although he has not left Disneyland immediately, it is obvious that he will not come down to greet Xu Zhi's group.

"Hello, Mr. Walker." Xu Zhi said politely.

"Sir, you are my boss now, just call me Allen." Allen Walker said with a smile, but suddenly he saw Roy Disney next to Xu Zhi and stopped smiling.

"Boss, let me introduce you." Peter stepped forward, took Xu Zhi, and introduced each of the people who came to greet him. Almost all the vice presidents of Disney business are here, and some even belong to Ron. Miller's confidant.

After Xu Zhi met and got familiar with everyone. Alan Walker smiled and said: "Boss, please come inside."
