Denise entertainment and metropolitan ABC Group both moved very quickly. Simon and Warren Buffet fixed the price on the afternoon of Saturday, June 17. The following Sunday, the two companies held a board meeting for several hours and passed the merger vote.

The main reason is that the control rights of the two companies are relatively concentrated.

On Denise Entertainment's side, Simon has absolute control over the company. In terms of Metro ABC Group, although Warren Buffett and Tom Murphy's control power is not as absolute as Simon's, they are almost the same over the years. The so-called board meeting is more of a formality.

The next day was June 19.

Monday.

As a hot topic destined to ignite public opinion, under the proposal of metropolitan ABC Group, the two sides decided to release the news through ABC network morning news program ”Good Morning America”. Good Morning America is broadcast from 7:00 to 9:00 in the morning. ABC has started a full 30 minute special report from 8:00.

Moreover, according to the closing price of $73.75 at the close of danielis Entertainment Group on Friday, on the basis of the principle that each share of danielis entertainment plus $98.25 in cash is exchanged for a share of Metro ABC Group stock, the shareholders of Metro ABC Group are free to choose the payment form of getting more cash or stock.

After briefly introducing the general situation of the acquisition, Amy Pascal, CEO of danielis entertainment group, Robert egger, President of danielis entertainment in charge of TV business, Tom Murphy, chairman and CEO of metropolitan ABC Group, and Warren Buffett, major shareholder of metropolitan ABC Group, also visited the studio ”Good Morning America” to elaborate in more detail the impact of the acquisition on the two companies As for the influence of the whole media industry, we also answered the phone calls from some Wall Street analysts on the spot.

Before the 30 minute special report was over, the sudden industrial earthquake had spread all over the United States.

In the past few months, with the lifting of the ban on media integration, the industry has realized that Denise entertainment has a great chance of acquiring a large TV network. However, according to various news circulating before, most people are optimistic that NBC or CBS will become the target of Denise entertainment.

In the northern suburb of Greenwich, Connecticut.

Within ten minutes of ABC News, Simon had already received three phone calls from all parties. Two were congratulations from Time Warner, Terry Semel and Michelle Lansing. The other was a call from CBS chairman, Larry Tisch, who was a little angry.

Irene Lauder dressed up and came to Simon's living room. She heard the man leaning on the sofa fight back with a certain impoliteness.

”Larry, if you're sincere, I didn't see that from you at the beginning. Don't tell me that the news about danielis's contact with CBS was an accidental leak. Everyone knows what happened.”

It has just taken half an hour to dress up. Most of the time from last night to now, Irene Lauder has not talked about her work with men. Therefore, she still doesn't know that Denise entertainment has decided to buy ABC. She leans down beside Simon and turns on the special report ”Good Morning America” on the TV. Only in this way can she finally understand what's going on What happened.

It's another big business with tens of billions of dollars.

If it goes on like this, it may be true that Simon westero will rule the United States, as some media play up.

However, because it was her own man, when she thought of this possibility, Irene Lauder just had more admiration and admiration in her heart. Women instinctively wanted her man to be stronger.

Simon and Larry Tisch played around for a second, then hung up quickly.

Irene Lauder was slapped at Simon with a light in her eyes. ”It's amazing. When did you take ABC again?”

”I just made a deal with Buffett the day before yesterday.”

Simon said, feeling Irene Lauder's good smell of women, reaching out to catch the girl's face, which is not beautiful but has more charm. Just as he was about to kiss her, his mobile phone rang again and answered immediately.

This is a call from Michael Eisner. It's also a congratulation.

Without letting go of the girl's face, Simon felt the warmth of his fingertips while talking with Eisner. A moment later, he simply reached out and hugged the girl in his arms. After chatting for a while, he hung up the phone. As soon as he lowered his head and kissed the lip of the girl in his arms, the phone rang again.The occasional little taste of men is also an important reason for the fall of Irene Lauder. She also enjoys the feeling.

When he was disturbed, he suddenly got angry. He opened his mouth and was about to bite. Simon had already laughed away, but he just filled a finger. Irene Lauder took hold of it and chewed it twice, then let him go.

At the end of another conversation with Jonathan Friedman, Simon pulls up Irene Lauder, who is still a little moody. ”Let's go. It's time to go to work.”

Irene Lauder stood up along with the man's strength. Her body was a little soft, and her tone was a little coquettish: ”suddenly I don't want to go to work.”

Simon was easy to talk and said with a smile, ”no problem. Why don't you stay here for a day.”

Irene Lauder took Simon's hand and said, ”stay with me.”

”No, I'm very busy today. But maybe you can come in the evening. ”

What's the point of staying here without Simon? Irene Lauder had to take the man's arm and walk out together.

Just a few words later, Simon's cell phone has been ringing again.

On the phone, the two left the villa, the helicopter has been waiting on the manor lawn.

Helped by a man to board the helicopter, the two enter the cabin and sit down. Watching Simon's assistant and bodyguard follow in, Irene Lauder has lost her original guilty heart. Just last month, after a period of consideration, she took the initiative to terminate her engagement with her fiance.

I'm single now.

She is only 25 years old, since she really feels wrong, there is no need to aggrieve herself.
