Colin Southgate was silent again for a moment before saying: "Eric, these are just your words, I need to see the Firefly electronic split plan first. In addition, what price do you plan to transfer That equity? "
Eric replied: "1.6 billion USD, about 20 times the price-earnings ratio, this price is very fair. Similarly, there is no room for negotiation, I still just said that, I do n’t want to waste too much time on negotiation."
"Cash?"
"Of course, I am not interested in the stock swap."
Colin Southgate shook his head: "Baidai can't get so much cash, even if it was the 1.2 billion USD that sold Virgin Records last year, we have all reinvested and returned it to shareholders."
"If EMI releases the news and plans to invest in Fireflyer, I think any financial institution will be happy to provide you with this financing. EMI currently has only 800 million 30 million USD liabilities. Calculating this 1.6 billion USD, your debt ratio will not Over 25%, most companies can afford this risk. "
"Okay, Eric, but I still have to say that the conditions you gave are too harsh and there is no room for improvement. Even if I am willing to agree, it is difficult for Board of Directors to agree in a short time."
"This is not my problem," Eric shrugged and said: "However, what you just said is actually quite right. Firefly Electronics only needs to win a large Record Company in the short term. So, if EMI is long Hesitate, and the other Record Company agrees, and you will always miss this opportunity. Even if you cooperate in the future, Fireflyer will not give up the equity. "
"Are n’t you afraid that EMI will lead other digital music player camps?"
"I don't think there is any other digital music sales platform that can exceed the Yahoo music store. If you do that, you will only lose yourself."
After saying this, Eric beckoned the waiter to start serving.
During the meal, Colin Southgate repeatedly asked Eric for some details. After lunch, he sent away Colin Southgate at 1:30 pm.
The casting of "Harry Potter and Magic Stone" has been started in London. Eric will go to the Firefly Group London branch in the afternoon to check the progress of the project. In addition, we have to rush to Songlin Film Studio, "Bond19" has been turned on, the crew is currently stationed in Songlin Film Studio.
Two identical black Land Rover SUVs have been waiting downstairs at the Royal Garden Hotel. Meyer is holding a stack of documents and standing by the car. He saw Eric coming with Bobby Devoy. The driver took the initiative to get off the car and pull the door.
I originally planned to send Bobby Devi home first, but I couldn't help the girl's pitiful pleading. Anyway, there was no need for confidential work. Eric brought the girl together.
Since the film and television copyright was directly won, although the movie project was publicly announced last month, the company has been polishing the script of "Harry Potter and Magic Stone" in the past two years, and the film Director is also directly determined as Chris of original. · Columbus.
Therefore, the main job of the crew of "Harry Potter and the Magic Stone" is to cast a cast. If all goes well, the film will be launched in September in the second half of the year and will be released at the end of next year.
Firefly Group ’s United Kingdom Headquarters is located in the Mayfair district on the east side of Hyde Park, not far from the United Kingdom Royal College of Art, and occupies a whole six-story building with a slightly European classical style.
In order to create momentum for the film in advance, the main small Actor of Harry Potter and Magic Stone adopts the form of open recruitment from the entire United Kingdom.
Since the announcement at the end of last month, this incident has also become the most popular hot topic in the United Kingdom local area in the most recent period. In just one month, the crew has received more than 20,000 pieces of information. If it is not the application time, it has been terminated. , This number will obviously increase.
Although it is the weekend, Eric brought Meyer and Bobby Devi like a small tail to the branch Headquarters. It is still a busy scene here.
The crew advertises that there are no restrictions on the selection of characters, but in fact, if you really read more than 20,000 materials, the casting team will definitely collapse. Therefore, the first round of selection basically wipes out the materials that are obviously inconsistent or have no performance experience in the resume, and some of the more selective children will also be specially marked.
Compared to the small Actor, the selection of the adult Actor is much smoother. At this time, several roles have been determined.
After confirming Director and script, Eric does n’t mean to intervene in casting, and I ’m too lazy to look for the small Actor of original. Some masters such as JK Rowling and Chris Columbus personally check it. The most suitable role for the trio.
After spending more than two hours in branch Headquarters, Eric left in a hurry and rushed to the pine forest Film Studio on the outskirts of London.
Because it is a weekend, the crew of "Bond19" does not have shoots today. Barbara Brockley personally received Eric and checked the progress of shoots of the film. At night, Eric was invited by Barbara Brockley. , Participated in an party hosted by the other party.
Return to London city, the time has passed ten o'clock in the middle of the night.
As if breaking into a completely new world, Bobby Dewai was in a faint excitement all day long.
Therefore, although it is already late at night, the girl is not at all random.
The car came to the Belgravia district where the girl ’s house was, and stopped in front of the last house. The driver pulled the car door out from the outside, and the Eric handed a handbag to the girl, saying: "Okay, Go back, good night. "
At this time, Bobby Devoy was no longer wearing the long hooded jacket in the morning. Inside was a small dress, covered with a beautiful light yellow Chanel trench coat, which was in the branch during the day. Headquarters and Eric were casually ordered when attending the Brockley home party in the evening. After all, the weather of London is really unbearable, and it is impossible for Eric to always wear their own clothes for girls.
Taking over his hooded jacket handbag, Bobby Dewai pulled Eric's hand and said, "Eric, will you come in and sit down?"
Eric smiled and shook his head: "I'm sleepy, I just want to go home and go to bed."
"Do n’t be like this, Eric," Bobby Dewai pulled up Eric a little bit arrogantly this time, and also fell back: "If you refuse this girl, you wo n’t find a girlfriend."
Parabi is doing this. Bobby Devoy has pulled Eric up the stairs, reached for the doorbell and pressed the doorbell, while the other hand pulled Eric as if worried that he would run away.
The door opened quickly. A 30 maid opened the door and saw Bobby Dewai immediately nagging: "Miss, you finally came back. The lady just called back to ask. And, Oh, Granville, Mr. Williams, good evening. "
Eric nodded at the other party: "Hello."
"This is Rosie," Bobby Dewai introduced casually, then took Eric and walked in. After a few steps, he turned back and said to the maid named Rosie: "Go first Go to sleep, and do n’t talk in front of me Mama. "
"Okay, okay, ma'am," the maid nodded a little hesitantly, but turned to her room.
Bobby Devoy pulled the Eric to the second floor with great interest, came to a bedroom full of girls, let Eric sit down beside her dressing table, the girl got into the dressing room 3 Two times, I changed to the long hooded jacket in the morning, and then Pā Tà Pā Tà ran downstairs. After a while, I ran up again with a pot of coffee.
Eric was sitting on a chair with her back against the dressing table, watching the girl ’s busy appearance with great interest, taking a sip of the coffee she handed over, and laughing: "So attentive, say yes first, but tomorrow Can't let you follow me anymore. "
Bobby Devoy handed over the coffee and then retreated to the small bed behind him and sat down with his hands on both sides, looking at Eric shiningly: "I did n’t think so, I am very happy today."
Eric nodded and brought the cup to his mouth to drink coffee slowly.
Pobby Dewai waited for a while, and then actively said: "Eric, why don't you talk?"
"Tired, I do n’t want to coax the little girl."
Bobby Dewai smiled and said, "So you were deliberately coaxing me during the day."
"Yeah," Eric left hand knocked on the side dressing table, said: "This is my day's‘ labor achievement '"
"Oh, Mr. Williams, you have seen through Oh."
Eric did n’t respond. He drank most of the coffee in the quilt and placed it next to him, saying: "So, go to bed early, I should go back."
Poppy Dewai ’s eyes flickered, and before Eric got up, he leaned in and gently pushed the man, straddling the Eric leg directly, embracing his neck and pecking slightly on the man ’s lips Next, and then parted, his face has turned crimson, but still boldly said: "Eric, I want to ** with you, are we ** OK?"
"Okay," Eric nodded, holding the girl's waist with both hands to prevent her from moving around, laughing: "Tell me first what will you do?"
The girl ’s face has turned into a red Apple, dissatisfied said: "You are, really a bad guy, of course, you are the initiative."
"So, ask you a question, from small to large, what was the most painful condition you experienced?"
"When I was a kid, I caught my finger in the door once," the girl said, and chuckled. "Eric, you want to scare me, right? I'm not afraid. Some of my good friends have done it. They said it was not as painful as expected. "
"I don't mean this," Eric reached out and gestured on the girl's belly. "If we do, your belly will probably grow bigger. Then, you have to bring a ball around." After running for ten months, the last thing is the most terrible thing. Increase the pain that you got caught by the door ten times. After another ten hours, a little guy will run out of your stomach. Even, this process You are likely to die from pain. "
A glance of fear flashed in Bobby Devi ’s eyes, but the tone of his voice was immediately determined: "You are scaring me, Eric, you will definitely not allow this to happen, right?"
"Yeah," Eric got up, picked up the girl ’s light body, and put it on the small bed next to it, saying: "So, sleep well, The Day After Tomorrow will come to the premiere of" Iron Man "and bring you Friends. "
Bobby Devi was just a whim of the girl. After being interrupted by Eric, he was no longer so persistent. He lay on the bed obediently, but still took the man ’s hand: "Eric, you Can I wait until I fall asleep before leaving? "
Eric smiled and said: "I'm really not considerate, I'm also tired."
"I'm a girl," Bobby Dewai raised her lips and said, "Of course, boys have to accommodate girls."
"Okay, stay there for another five minutes. After five minutes you ca n’t sleep, I ’m leaving."
"I usually sleep for half an hour."
"It will take so long, what have you been thinking for half an hour?"
"Last night, I was wondering if I would call you after I woke up this morning, would you forget me. Also, what clothes should I wear and whether to wear makeup, I am learning makeup recently Everyone says that I am very talented. I think I might be able to create my own cosmetics brand when I grow up. "
Eric was sitting by the bed, letting the girl hold her own hand and breaking her mind, maybe she was tired of playing during the day, just over ten minutes, the girl had fallen asleep.
Help her cover the quilt, and Eric leaves the girl's bedroom lightly.
A wall lamp was lit in the living room downstairs. Eric went down the stairs, and the maid appeared in front of her just now.
"Mr. Williams, are you going to leave?"
"Yeah, Bobby is already asleep. In addition, please help me to ask the Devay couple."
"Okay."
The maid nodded and led Eric to the door attentively, helped him open the door, watched the car on the roadside of Eric, watched the two SUVs turn around and disappeared on the street, before the apartment was reddish brown. The door closed.
Back to Kensington Garden Street, it was past eleven.
Eric did not have much sleepiness. The female assistant stayed in the villa last night. Today, she moved to the Royal Garden Hotel on the street. After the villa, Eric was alone.
Sitting a pot of coffee in silence, Eric came to the study upstairs and started reading some of the legal documents he had requested from Firefly Group Chief Legal Adviser Edward Lewis these days.
Reviewed all the documents carefully. Eric pondered for a while, got up and took out a DV from the bookcase, propped it up by the study sofa, tested the shoots angle, and then started recording a video file.
The recording of the video file for more than half an hour is completed. Eric takes out a laptop that has been prepared, copies the video file into the computer movie, and encrypts it with the encryption software Steve · Mitnick.
After all this, look at the time, it is already four o'clock in the morning.
Although London is located in a high-latitude area with a long summer sky, the sky outside the window is still dark. Only when looking upwards, the sky above London shows a pale white because of the city lights. .
Delete the original files in the DV, and Eric physically destroys the memory card in the DV again, confirming that it cannot be recovered again, and then locks the laptop just in the safe and leaves the study room quietly.
Walk into the bathroom, take a shower, lie down on the big bed in the bedroom, and suddenly remember Bobby Devi ’s half an hour before bed.
Inexplicably, he began to wonder what he should think about in the past half an hour, but the heavy exhaustion still swelled up, and his thoughts were unfocused and he slept unconsciously.
