Chapter 177

Mark was stunned and said, "what's up? It will be Christmas soon. In the evening, I asked David to have dinner with them. " After dinner is a warm time with small band aids.

Megan said, "Marvel has some problems and must let you deal with them. You'd better buy time, come and return as early as possible, and try to go back to Los Angeles for Christmas."

Mark had to say, "OK!" He immediately asked Billy to drive him and Carlo to the airport.

It turned out that Ron did a good job. He transferred the company's working capital before determining the acquisition. Now, manvino, a big company, has only more than 500000 US dollars, and even his salary is not enough.

M & A is originally a very troublesome thing, covering price negotiation, strategic integration, organizational design, organizational structure adjustment, personnel reduction, etc. it requires a strong and comprehensive working team. Megan transferred a professional M & a team from Oracle to advise her, implement and implement every action. They immediately freeze the company's account after signing the M & a agreement, Send a team composed of professional financial accountants and lawyers to settle in, count and divide the company's assets, strip off non-performing assets, and sign the contract and pay the balance after all these are completed and confirmed.

Megan's team found that there was no balance left in the company's account during the inventory. In this big business involving nearly 800 million, she took all her words and means to make Logan nod. She didn't have to turn against Logan for millions. She was dumb and sure.

The problem now is that the company can't pay wages. It was easy to make people panic in the process of M & A. now it can't pay wages, which exacerbates this fear. Now the company is panic, rumors are everywhere, and it happens to be the end of the year. The company has to pay double salaries and various benefits, so as to maintain popularity and stability. The problem is to sell Logan of Marvel wholeheartedly, He doesn't care about all this. After receiving a $100 million deposit, he's not afraid of Megan's repentance, so it's impossible for him to pay to fill the hole.

Now Megan's team suggests to eat the dumb, but let Marvel's employees understand who is good and who is bad, so the salary and welfare must be delayed until the heat is always enough. At this time of buying people's hearts, mark, the big boss and Donald must be present. In fact, Megan felt that there was no need to bother mark at the beginning, She could handle all this by herself, but under the repeated persuasion of her assistants, she had to inform mark and Donald temporarily, and Donald entrusted all this to mark.

There are still two days left for Christmas. The employees' discontent and anger have been almost accumulated. They have begun to strike and are ready to launch trade union demonstrations. Even Marvel's management and board of directors are beginning to be uneasy. Logan, a cunning guy, pushes everything to mm. He won't throw money in when the company's account is frozen. Alan, Stan Lee and Ike, When Kevin Fitch and others came to Megan's acquisition team, the other party responded that, as agreed, they would sincerely promise to pay the wages and expenses of the company's employees at the beginning of the acquisition, and also recognize the salary and length of service of the company's employees, but they would not pay the previous wages and promised benefits.

The management had to find Logan and ask him to return the money transferred from the company's account, but Logan directly closed the door.

The management was in a dilemma. When the major shareholder Logan didn't make a statement, they had nothing to do, and logan was stingy. Who doesn't know when he was generous except when he divorced? As for Stan Lee, Aland, they can't take so much money to fill the hole, and it's impossible. They find Megan and threaten to spend 800 million to buy a shell company if they don't do it.

However, Megan is not easy to deceive. When the victory is in hand, she does not shy away from saying: "except that the copyright of superheroes is a little valuable, marvel is no different from shell companies. If people go away, it can also reduce their acquisition costs and future operating expenses.

The attitude of the acquirer made them pour cold water. On that day, Marvel's stock fell by five percentage points, while Marvel accumulated anger and complained everywhere. Someone has begun to mobilize workers to strike, and marvel has quickly become a powder keg.

At this time, Megan informed them to arrange a meeting with all the employees. The place was in the company's large conference room. There were not enough people to fill it. They sat in other conference rooms and broadcast it through video signals. The management didn't know what was going on, but mark and they were willing to talk. It was always a good thing. They couldn't pay wages and benefits. They would be torn by the employees.

In fact, in terms of wage arrears, few dare to default because of the supervision of trade unions and courts. However, it is hard to say that Logan dares to do so in mergers and acquisitions such as Marvel because there is a place to shirk responsibility.

Mark and Megan appeared at the gate of Marvel building at 10 a.m. on time. The management led by Alan greeted them here, and the other more than 100 employees were waiting in the conference room.

Alan tried to sound mark's tone by beating around the bush.

Mark said: "the previous wages and benefits really have nothing to do with us. There is no legal basis for us to pay this money. However, considering the actual difficulties of the company, we don't want to buy a shell company. My team gave a suggestion that mm should provide a loan to marvel and help marvel tide over the difficulties first. This is the debt of the company. What do you think?"

They had no choice. The company's debt was actually equal to mark's, because soon the company belonged to them. As long as they had money, they wouldn't mind what way it was. Mark's statement made them relax and agreed on behalf of the management.

Mark said: "of course, all this can only be determined after the staff meeting. We have prepared the check. If there is no accident, we can complete the distribution today, which will not affect everyone's Christmas."

The money is ready. The key is that if there is no accident, the people in the management are human talents. Of course, I can hear the meaning of Mark's sentence. One of them ran away immediately.

At first, they didn't understand the purpose of Mark's staff meeting, so they arranged some people to make trouble today, embarrass mark and put pressure on them to pay. Doing so now will certainly have a negative effect. Since ancient times, there has been no embarrassment and embarrassment, and they paid you obediently. They sent someone to inform the employees, If you want money, don't make trouble.

When Mark and his colleagues entered the meeting room, all the staff greeted each other with smiling faces and stood up and applauded. Mark was kind enough to sit in the chairman's position and make some speeches after Alan's introduction, just to wish everyone a happy holiday and boost morale. Originally, his assistant also wrote a speech, mainly to denounce Logan's shamelessness, praise himself and establish his glorious image, But it was rejected by mark.

There is no other advantage except taking advantage of words. There is no other advantage to discredit Logan. The people of Marvel company don't know who Logan is. It can be said that in less than three years, when this guy cries, even if he doesn't cry, he will regret hitting the wall. This is the real harm. Even if mark is poor, he won't annoy this guy because of millions, Then affect the smooth progress of the transaction.

After talking a lot of empty words, mark finally announced that he would provide an emergency loan to the company to tide over the difficulties, ensure that every employee gets paid before work, and let everyone work at ease.

This time, we finally won the unanimous cheers and cheers. Any words of encouragement or comfort are empty. Money is the most practical. The new boss easily won everyone's support because he was willing to spend money.

Mark finally said, "Megan and I are having a party tonight at the four seasons hotel in Madison garden square. Welcome to join us."

Mark and Megan, in the warm applause of everyone, walked off the podium, shook hands with everyone warmly and expressed their greetings. After they said that they had a salary to pay, everyone was in a different mood. They received a salary before work. Such a guarantee was something that the previous management and shareholders dared not do, and it was also very wonderful to have a party.

Among so many people in Marvel, mark is not interested in Stan Lee and Aland, but he really wants to meet Kevin Fitch, general manager of Marvel studio of Marvel pictures. Now Marvel pictures is only one of several major departments of marvel, and it is almost a shell department. They don't have enough funds to make movies themselves, just in spider man Marvel films such as "X-Men" have a certain share of copyright. Kevin, as the representative of marvel, was listed as one of the producers. Marvel's full name is "Marvel Entertainment". He was originally responsible for many businesses such as Marvel comics, marvel animation, marvel films and marvel TV. Among them, the CEO was Ike pamut, who was the immediate boss of Kevin Fitch, the leader of Marvel's film studio at that time.

Kevin Fitch was born in Boston, Massachusetts and grew up in Westfield, New Jersey. During his study at the University of Southern California, he studied with producer Lauren Schuler downer as an intern and became Lauren's right-hand assistant after graduation.

Kevin is very proficient in the background setting of Marvel Comics and the structure of Marvel Universe. It is for this reason that Lauren Schuler downer began to tap his ability, so he appointed Kevin as the assistant producer of the first film in the X-Men series. Since then, Kevin Fitch has served as the producer of almost all subsequent Marvel Comics adapted films.

Mark went directly over CEO ike to contact the person in charge of the following studio, which made several senior executives of Marvel Entertainment somewhat dissatisfied. In particular, Ike, who is famous for his power and stinginess, is the leader of the six person creative group as the boss of Marvel Entertainment and one of Marvel's elders and shareholders.

Although Marvel CEO Kevin Fitch holds the power, he still hired a "six person creative group" composed of writers and senior executives to be responsible for film creation. The form of this group is a bit like the "think tank" established by Pixar Animation Studio under Disney. This six person group will discuss the film roles, plot lines and styles in advance before selecting the shooting director.
