The California Richmond, Eric arrived here three days of time, for these days, he hired the Silicon Valley professional team's to the Pixar property to carry on the careful investigation appraisal.
Jobs completes the transaction eagerly, to Eric this type ‚moving unnecessarily’ the behavior expressed discontentedly, has no alternative. Eric does not have the thoughts to care about the feeling of Jobs.
Although the Jobs talent is indubitable, but its moral behavior really makes the person not dare to think highly. This can deny illegitimate daughter's child support payment, openly declared one are the natural incompetent person. Therefore, Eric must carry on the detailed appraisal to Pixar, carelessly completes the transaction.
Three days later, Pixar situated in the alone level office building in Richmond, Eric thick one dozen of appraisal documents will place on meeting table, the finger is striking the tabletop gently, to sitting said in opposite Jobs: „Steve, I had the sincerity to purchase Pixar very much, what a pity, I have not seen your sincerity.”
Jobs has not come under the influence of Eric expression slightly, on the face leads an expert to look at the helplessness of layman: „Eric, if you have anything to have doubts, can say, I will be earnest for you explain. Accuses me not to have the sincerity directly, this was too serious.”
Eric sighed a Jobs psychological quality, no matter how the innermost feelings move, in the surface does not show one's ignorance. This linked this to live the people of two lifetime is very difficult calm to achieve.
He does not have the mood to play the psychological warfare with Jobs, comes straight to the point saying: „Good, Steve, I said directly. Reason that purchases Pixar, I regard as important is the Pixar 3D Animation technology, therefore, you have sold the hardware department, this point I did not mind.”
Eric was saying, opened to read several material in hand, then said: „The material that but, in my hand collects showed that in the graph exaggeration software package of Pixar development, three core software property rights were posted your NeXT Computer Company a while ago, but most important animation system, although core software, but filled in the color software property rights also to be shifted. Reason that Pixar can receive the Disney two-dimensional animation the outsourcing project, relies on is this can reduce massively fills up the color time the software. These, do you need to give me an explanation?”
Jobs truly is not the honest and good-natured person, reason that such does, with leaving things to chance, wants to coax Eric this layman. Once succeeds, that several models of software can sell several million prices. Perhaps some people can think several models of software to be able value how much money. If there is this doubts, that thinks Microsoft.
But what Jobs has not thought that Eric truly is a layman, but he actually knows that attended to carry out the loving relationship to manage to the expert, therefore invited the Silicon Valley specialized appraisal team specially, place that but Silicon Valley the technical madman huddles together, is mistrusts each other very fierce region, these people have detected the Jobs petty action quickly.
Actually, after Eric makes this action, Jobs at heart again has not held many are greatly lucky. But by his facial skin, even if were punctured face to face, will not be definitely easy to obey.
„Eric, takes over Pixar in the four years time, I at least invested 50 million USD to Pixar, the hardware department have only sold 16 million. But your initial price is only 20 million, these money Zhigou buy me to keep the Pixar thing.”
The Eric ridicule has smiled, closes the folder, both hands on meeting table, stares at Jobs saying: „Steve, it seems like you do not want to admit your failure easily. Understanding that good, I said that purchases Pixar this single business from the Lucas hand, you were defeated, the loser must have the consciousness of loser, loses money is inevitable. In order to save your NeXT Computer Company, you must sell to me the Pixar complete Pixar software department low price. Therefore, comes back these software, we can then discuss other.”
The Jobs complexion transformed several in pale, as person who is proud extremely proud, always only then he points at the share that others were scolding crazily, now by young over ten -year-old young fellow face to face reprimanding is the loser, even if by his excellent psychological quality, was without turning a hair very much difficultly again.
Disguises to work in the outside workshop actually busily, in fact actually raises up the ear to listen attentively to John Lasseter that and the others two people talked, at heart maliciously crisp.
Jobs is never any affable Boss, comes Pixar each time, will seize all hosts to create, then having no merit to speak of their fruit of labor critique, takes reclaiming some management stockholder's rights as the condition, bestowment throws down a check.
Several years later, by these methods, Pixar completely have become the Jobs personal property, all stocks in management hand were won by him.
Now finally saw Jobs was scolded by others. Only depending on this point, must directly vanish into thin air in an irritable mood of youth under work.
In the conference room, Jobs pulls a long face saying: „Mr. Williams, you purchase Pixar, should be brings to make the animated film? You now the consecutively several movies obtained the great success, believes that many people will note your every action and every movement, if I favor the Pixar news to disclose you that may have many people interested, but a higher price, do you think?”
The Eric right ring finger shivered slightly, this detail had not been noted luckily by Jobs.
Flings happy to worry forcefully that Eric sneers unquestioning, said: „Mr. Jobs, your words value 1 million. I do not like others acting bashful me, therefore decided that reduces the initial price to 19 million. Pixar like a camera, under my direction, can lay out «Home Alone» actually, can lay out 《Pretty Woman》, but in other Director, laid out any thing is very difficult to say. Therefore, 19 million USD, complete Pixar software department. Thinks the good words, before I leave Richmond, calls me.”
Eric said that tidies up the personal belongings directly, went out of the Pixar office. Personal attorney Edward also hastily followed. Passed long time, Jobs went out of the conference room, the vision has swept one coldly the employee who worked or disguises work, has not gotten angry unusual, left Pixar Headquarters silent.
Next morning, Eric and Jobs sat in the conference room once more.
Many business negotiations are this, must always undergo several rounds confrontation. Even if previous time quarrelled is heavily engaged, almost must brandish the arm to hit, one patted two loose stances greatly, but the next round started, everybody must tidy up the mood to continue to sit together, then gambling.
Today Jobs is hanging the light dark pouche obviously: Matter that „Eric, I handled before not wrong, everyone for the benefit makes utmost efforts. But I agreed that also comes back that several models of software, but the price must maintain 20 million USD to be invariable. We... Is the sane adults, cannot because of a few words on compression 1 million USD, that be the matter that the child handles.”
Eric does not want to be too ruthless, if played to collapse, he who Jobs compels can spend other to form the animation studio actually, but developed the corresponding software, accumulated enough technology, not only these needed the massive money, but also needs to be the several years time. Although Eric is not short of money, but he does not have enough time to make the technical accumulation.
previous life all people know that the 3D Animation movie as well as peripheral can bring the huge profit, but Hollywood presents such several well-known animation studios throughout , because these work rooms technically led other colleagues, simultaneously has captured the market share.
Other people want to pursue again, is a very difficult matter, you have done for several years, has reached certain level with great difficulty, but others' technology were also many compared with you accumulated the several years time. Under this condition, the successor forever is also hard to follow the footsteps of predecessor.
In the conference room, they wrangled mutually for a half hour, Eric the words that is possible to say yesterday does not swallow back completely, finally both sides have both made the small concession, achieved 19 500,000 USD prices.
Brings back the property rights of software, after Eric lets again the person confirmed is unmistakable, refreshedly has signed the contract. Jobs accepts the check, looked at one under to work in oneself several years of staff, thought that had nothing saying that has to nod, turns around to leave Pixar Headquarters.
