Eric and Chris have spent for several hours, has decided about buys in the detail planning of Disney stock from the secondary market, the memorandum that Chris will write by hand receives, sees the Eric plan to leave, suddenly has remembered another matter, stopped by calling out him: „Eric, a matter I almost forgot to say.”
Waits for Eric to sit down once more, Chris said: „August time, Cisco Board of Directors through the resolution, has relieved founder Mr. and Mrs. Grey at Cisco all duties, they left the company now.”
Chris was saying, set out to discover a folder to give Eric from the filing cabinet, Eric opened to look, is one in mid August a Cisco Board of Directors resolution document, after looking, Eric gained ground to ask: „Concrete what's the matter?”
„Mr. and Mrs. Grey thought that the present Cisco management extremely in pursuing the benefit, does not conform to them to found the original intention of Cisco, for this reason has made several times, I participate in the Cisco year in June the conference time just also has bumped into one time, couple points at the company CEO Morgan Ritchie's nose to shout abuse, the conference has therefore postponed for three hours. In August, company management of being driven beyond the limits of forbearance threatens Board of Directors by the collective resignation, finally passed has dismissed Mr. and Mrs. Grey in the propositions of Cisco all duties.”
Told the entire item matter simply, on the Chris face brings light contemptuous saying: „Reason that actually they this, does not have the big relations with the operational strategy of company, couple to losing the Cisco domination has taken to heart.”
„This matter I knew, only if poses a threat to our interests, otherwise, we try not to meddle the management of Cisco.”
The Chris nod said: „I understand. However what I must say is the following matter, after Mr. and Mrs. Grey leaves Cisco, disclosed that must undersell in the hand the news of stock, I think that you are possibly interested, just we currently have enough fund.”
Eric recalled under the Cisco stockholder's rights branch. Shows the excited look, after the Cisco listing, creates common people Mr. and Mrs. Grey in the hand to have the Cisco 27.6% stocks, as before is the Cisco first major stockholder, but in the Chinese larch capital hand of initial investment Cisco has 23.5% stocks, second. Third is the Firefly investment company, owns stocks 23%, the remaining close 30% stocks disperse in the institutional investor as well as in the company management hand.
Although is listed company, because went on the market the time market not to hold a favorable view on the Cisco prospects for development, the majority of stocks that therefore Cisco sells were subscribed by the investment institution. Flows in the stock of secondary market to be scarce, wants through in the plan that the circulation market buys to increase holds radically invalid, but has attained the stock the investment machine, because after Cisco goes on the market the good performance, is not willing to let go again easily, therefore, Mr. and Mrs. Grey sells the stockholder's rights in hand, definitely is only one time massively increases holds the opportunity of Cisco stock.
If can take Mr. and Mrs. Grey the full share in hand, the Firefly investment is almost equal to absolute holding Cisco. This is the Eric long-awaited matter.
„Their initial price how many?” Eric directly asked this most essential issue, in the expression is bringing win.
Chris can also understand that Eric is thinking anything, as superintendent of Firefly investment. He compared with the Eric clearer Cisco condition, shook the head to say with a smile: „Eric, possibly you wanted disappointedly, Mr. and Mrs. Grey do not undersell the full share in hand, they are only willing to get rid two-thirds stockholder's rights, probably was 18%. Initial price 250 million USD, has been higher than 30% compared with current price on market. The investor that therefore now is interested in majority was negotiating with Mr. and Mrs. Grey, I estimated that the final rate will not surpass 200 million.”
„Contacts with Mr. and Mrs. Grey as soon as possible. Must take this stock, we currently have enough fund in any case, expensive has not related,” Eric thinks, said: „This, you passed on to Mr. and Mrs. Grey, if they are willing to sell in the hand the complete stockholder's rights, we buy by 30% premiums that they asked.”
„I will convey, but the possibility is not big, if not this couple needs the fund to start an undertaking once more, it is estimated that this 18% stocks will not sell.”
„Gives a try will not always have the loss,” the Eric nod said.

Eric arrived at New York these days again, the international oil price has achieved the unprecedented each barrel of 41 USD top digit, almost was also with several days, the Western country united Middle East several big petroleum exporting countries to start to release various effectively stabilized crude prices the measure, first was Saudi Arabia announced that to 100% to supply the market demand the domestic crude oil productivity improvement, North America and Europe various countries also starts to use the crude oil reserve stabilization of market in our country, in addition the union headed by US forces * completely deployed in Persian Gulf that the entire force has surpassed the 600,000 person, has formed the comprehensive suppression in the weaponry to Iraq, various advantage spatial news influences. Next, crude price started slow dropping.
Has not thought including Eric that tour of opportunity his another New York can be so the coincidence, just catches up with the crude price to achieve dropping after peak. Therefore, after returning to Los Angeles once more, all kinds of probes come in swarms once again, is prying the income of this oil shock without a single exception.
In the Eric this operation crude oil Petroleum process, reaches as high as the 500 million USD capital temporarily borrows from seven big Film Studio, but seven big finally have achieved nothing besides the loan as well as a dispensable interest. Therefore certain people want to know ‚’ the fund gained the thoughts of how much money to be intense, so long as if knew the result, in these person of hearts will lose is comforted.
Eric naturally impossible to disclose that specific information round trip stimulation these people, such inhumane matter he may unable to do, meets this probe, Eric in a few words will often go round the topic. Therefore some people have to change the trend of Eric company the vision, hopes to obtain some information.
But the time passes by day-by-day, besides about the plan of Playa Vista shoots base some Firefly staff disclosed that be only the Firefly investment announced that purchased Cisco founder Mr. and Mrs. Grey by 210 million USD the hand 18% stocks, in addition, Eric as if not too big movement. When was negotiating with the Playa Vista community officials, Eric claimed that will invest 1 billion USD, but the discerning people could look, the Playa Vista shoots base was impossible to spend that much money, let alone the cycle of this project is several years, first batch of investment fund many 100 million.
This uneventful piece of work made many people many but actually several points of relief, guess Eric likely has not gained with self-consolation to too much money.
As October passing of slowly, Hollywood soon will again welcome the end of the year new year files, big Film Studio started the fiery propaganda of the end of the year principal movie, seven big Film Studio management bring the point to change | condition the small gratified pleasantly surprised discovery, this new year files Eric besides «Point Break» of supervised manufacture, the movie that any has not directed personally screens.
But Firefly also altogether has two movies to screen at the end of the year, besides «Point Break», another movie «Ghost Searching» of Robert Shay movie-making, this work brings the point to imitate the «Ghostbusters» frightened comedy style, is Eric had not heard a movie, it is estimated that was the different number that the butterfly effect brought, the investment of movie has also achieved 40 million, according to Robert Shay before and Eric agreement, Firefly has accounted for one-fourth of investment.
But Firefly consecutively for two years of principal «Home Alone» series, has not actually manufactured the sequel this year.
Mainly is CAA Brokerage Firm that because Stewart is at proposed 15 million USD sky-high price salary, was almost last year two times, moreover Mr. and Mrs. Runkle these time as if ‚straightening out’, again wantonly has not interfered, negotiated the salary plenary powers has given CAA.
If accepts the salary that CAA proposed, raising the price that in addition movie other acted the leading role , a manufacture sequel only salary cost will achieve forcefully 25 million, the sequel total cost will surpass 50 million, in addition the late marketing budget, the movie needed 140 million Box Office to recoup the cost, according to the Box Office downward trend of first two movie, this sequel manufactured the possibility that lost money to be very big, Eric excessively had not considered that temporarily has reduced the manufacture plan of sequel.
Will suspend the news issues of «Home Alone» series in Firefly on the same day, Stewart manager immediately telephoned to make the concession, but was busy with the Petroleum transaction Eric simply not having at that time once more with the meaning that CAA wrangled, has rejected the opposite party directly. Firefly not like some Film Studio to some movie series serious dependence, therefore does not need to create to the movie Lord extremely gives, since certain people are not tactful the lion big start to talk, that must have the consciousness that the disintegration tooth have swallowed.
«Point Break» in mid October filmed, it is expected that will complete with one month manufactures later, but recently, Eric had not collected toward Kathryn Bigelow side, because affair between Cameron and Linda Hamilton was grasped by paparazzi, was supplementing in the picture newspaper.
Kathryn hurried to shoots scene of «Terminator 2: Judgement Day» on the same day that the news disclosed situated in New Mexico, after Cameron acknowledged personally | axle, the woman divorced with Cameron neatly, slightly not loathsome. But Cameron after all is not these unmarried Director, has produced the affair as married man and Heroine, spreads it likely to affect «Terminator 2: Judgement Day» Box Office, therefore, after two MPR grades «Terminator 2: Judgement Day» screens, again announced news that divorces.
Although this matter hid the truth from the media temporarily, but knew the circumstances of the matter | the person to be also many, Eric took the investors of two movies, naturally must know. As a very independent female, Kathryn Bigelow until 35 years old because adores the Cameron talent and opposite party married, has not thought that this marriage continues less than three years, the husband went off track, places on any woman to estimate that is very difficult to accept.
Although these days Kathryn work time as before calm capable meticulous, as if has not come under the influence of marital break-up, when Eric appears, the vision of woman occasionally will become spooky, visits him with the look that in the world unfaithful men should fry in oil, this feeling will make the Eric back send coolly, he is not willing to be the bad concern that Cameron will fiddle with takes the rap, therefore simply temporarily has let loose the «Point Break» matter.
