“BOSS, CAA’s station is on 3rd-floor.”

Three black Rolls-Royce Phantoms parked neatly in the parking space on the side of the road. Xia Yu waited for the entire group to get off the car. Assistant Gordon Simpson pointed to a hanging sign on the 3rd-floor beyond ten meters and said.

“Go!”

Xia Yu slightly nodded, Gordon Simpson leads the way.

After a while, the entire group came to the reception desk of CAA. Gordon Simpson went to negotiate, took out a business card and handed it to the front desk, saying: “Hello, we are from Polaris Capital. Yesterday we had an appointment. This is our company. business card.”

“Okay, please wait, you guys sit there first.”

After speaking at the front desk, he took out the appointment book and looked through it a few times. After confirming that it was correct, he made a call, said a few words and then hung up, respectfully saying to Gordon Simpson: “Hello, our President just happened to have In the office, my colleague will take you there.”

“Ok.”

Under the leadership of a female employee, before Xia Yu and the others arrived at the president’s office, they saw someone standing at the door and greeted him with a smile. Xia Yu recognized Michael Ovitz at a glance.

“Hello, I am Michael Ovitz, and welcome you!”

Michael Ovitz warmly shook hands with everyone one after another to express welcome.

Yesterday, after the appointment with Polaris Capital, he specifically learned about the situation of Polaris Capital. He was shocked by the strength of Polaris Capital. He couldn’t calm down for a day. Anticipation, anxiety, entanglement and other emotions lingered in his heart.

Seeing Michael Ovitz’s exploration gaze, Gordon Simpson introduced him to Xia Yu: “Mr. Ovitz, this is our Boss of Polaris Capital, Xia Yu Mr. Xia.”

“Mr. Ovitz, hello!”

After Gordon Simpson’s introduction, Xia Yu said with a faint smile.

Hearing that Xia Yu turned out to be the Boss of Polaris Capital, Michael Ovitz was shocked and completely uneasy. His attitude became more enthusiastic, even with a hint of respect. He greeted Xia Yu and hurriedly welcomed Xia Yu into the office at the same time: “Mr. Xia, It’s an honor to meet you, please inside!”

“Thank you!”

After entering, the female employee was preparing coffee. Michael Ovitz was a little uncomfortable and asked first: “Mr. Xia, I don’t know if you come to our company, do you have any business?”

Xia Yu smiled slightly, and nodded said frankly: “Our company intends to get involved in the film industry, and the brokerage company is in the industry chain, so the past few days have been investigating brokerage companies. Your company is the second one I came to.”

“Mr. Ovitz, can you tell me about your company?”

Hearing that his company was the second company under investigation, Michael Ovitz was not happy and surprised. He was surprised that the Boss of Polaris Capital had arrived in person, but now he felt a sudden loss.

To calm the inner fluctuations, Michael Ovitz agreed and said: “Of course it’s okay, it’s my honor.”

“Our company was founded in 1975. After 5 years of development, our CAA is now a well-known Hollywood brokerage company, and its growth momentum is also the most violent. And just last month, we followed Sean Connery and Paul After Newman, once again signed a superstar Dustin Hoffman…”

Polaris Capital’s ability to collect business intelligence is very powerful. Xia Yu has already seen the detailed information of CAA. At this time, asking Michael Ovitz to introduce his company is nothing more than pretending to be ignorant in order to gain the initiative and wait for an opportunity to elicit the topic. That’s it.

Xia Yu can tell the difference easily. Mike Ovitz is boasting about CAA, without mentioning any weaknesses.

CAA, the full name of the innovative elite cultural brokerage company, has 5 Founders, namely Michael Ovitz, Ron Meyer, Mike Rosenfeld, William Hubble and Roland Perkins, all of whom are Resigned from the top brokerage firm William Morris in Hollywood.

After that, the sixth partner Martin Baomu joined, which opened the rising ceiling for CAA and boosted the rapid growth of CAA.

Now CAA has also signed 3 superstars, as well as some potential small celebrity or newcomers. The company has only 28 agents. The growth is relatively fast, but the shortcomings are quite obvious, that is, the foundation is too thin and it depends on Michael. Ovitz and other Founders worked hard.

With CAA’s revenue reaching 15 million USD last year, CAA’s growth rate has slowed significantly.

As far as Xia Yu knows, CAA’s annual revenue is 15 million USD, but its net profit is only 400 USD, and Michael Ovitz, as President, has an annual salary of only 600,000 USD.

Looking at the spot to know the leopard, we can see the true strength of CAA.

Because of his understanding, Xia Yu listened to Michael Ovitz’s introduction as a joke, except that he kept a smile on his face throughout the whole process, nothing unusual.

“Mr. Xia, I’m finished. CAA’s situation is probably that.”

Michael Ovitz finished speaking and took a sip of coffee.

“Mr. Ovitz, after listening to your introduction, CAA does have some obvious advantages, but for us, it is still too weak.”

Xia Yu shook her head slightly and said.

Hearing this, Michael Ovitz couldn’t help but raise a wave of anger, but thinking of the strength of Polaris Capital, a feeling of powerlessness arose.

Xia Yu smiled and said to Michael Ovitz: “Mr. Ovitz, I’m sorry to say that, but it’s true. Our company likes big investments, just like our 1.1 billion USD investment in IBM, instead of waiting for small investments. , We prefer to spend money to save time.”

Michael Ovitz disappeared thoroughly in a rage, and some were just unwilling and bitter, and others were telling the truth. What could he do?

Xia Yu’s invisible pretence hit him even harder!

Realizing that the impact was almost over, Xia Yu suddenly changed the conversation and said, “But compared to CAA, I am more optimistic about you. The reason why I stopped by CAA to have a look is because I heard others talk about you. , You do have qualities and abilities that surpass others.”

Michael Ovitz was in a slightly better mood. After thanking him, he calmly asked, “Then Mr. Xia, can I know your plan?”

“I want to invest in you, and both you and CAA need strong capital as a backer, don’t they?”

Michael Ovitz was hit by Xia Yu one after another. He was a little unhappy. At this moment, he suddenly heard that Xia Yu wanted to invest in him. Instead, he reacted a little and tried to regain some initiative for himself: “Mr. Xia, thank you for your recognition, but I don’t think CAA is short of funds. CAA is already on the right track. Success is a matter of time and I am confident.”

Xia Yu said, “Mr. Ovitz, don’t refuse, do you want to hear my views on other brokerage companies?”

Michael Ovitz realized that Xia Yu wanted to hit him sideways, but he still wanted to hear what Xia Yu wanted to say. Nodded said, “Of course, it’s my honor.”

After taking a sip of coffee to moisturize her throat, Xia Yu said: “In the field of agency, the most powerful thing is MCA Group. Lou Wasserman has an incomparable influence in the entertainment industry. He can be called the emperor of the entertainment industry. The company is under pressure. I heard that your idol is him, so you should be very clear about the strength of the MCA Group.”

These words, Michael Ovitz was speechless, because it is indeed true. His goal is to become a figure like Lou Wasserman, the big shot that has been behind the planning and dominating the way Hollywood works for several decades.

Xia Yu smiled slightly, and then said: “William Morris Brokerage is the company you used to work for. You should also be clear that this is a top Hollywood brokerage company with an annual revenue of 200000000 million USD. There are more than 150 brokers, regardless of assets or influence in Hollywood, far above CAA.”

“Of course, I plan to acquire this company at first, and at best it will cost a few 100000000 million USD.”

Michael Ovitz’s face was suddenly ugly, and great pressure rose in his heart.

He came from the William Morris Brokerage Company. Naturally, he knows the strength of his old company. If it is acquired by Polaris Capital, then it has strong support from Polaris Capital. In the future, William Morris Brokerage and MCA Group peer competition will be nothing difficult. From the current situation of the Hollywood brokerage industry with one superpower to the two-pole competition, when the two are fighting, their small and medium-sized brokerage companies will definitely be bad luck.

Large companies have the confidence to raise salaries and treatments, but if they do, the company will easily fall into a loss and enter an endless loop.

Michael Ovitz’s ugly face was captured by Xia Yu. He pretended not to notice, and continued to focus on: “Let’s not talk about large brokerage companies. Let’s look at medium-sized brokerage companies, such as the International Innovation Management Company on Constellation Avenue. CAA was founded in the same year, but it started by combining the two brokerage companies, the Innovation Management Association and the famous international brokerage company, into one. It is also a subsidiary of the listed company Josephson International, with strong financial resources.

“Although the previous years have caused a lot of disputes due to improper management, after the new President Jeffrey Berg took office at the beginning of this year, he has allowed the rapid development of international innovation management companies and demonstrated extremely aggressiveness. There is no doubt that the future of Hollywood The top brokerage company must have its seat.”

“I heard that international innovation management companies have been digging corners. I wonder if they have digged into CAA?”

Hearing this, Michael Ovitz’s face is as dark as the bottom of a pot, and the International Innovation Management Company is his opponent. He has dug a lot of celebrity and brokers. If it weren’t for his active work, does CAA have three majors? Superstars are hard to say.

He abhors the international innovation management company’s unscrupulous expansion by relying on capital, but behind the hatred, is it not the mentality of saying grape sour without eating grapes?

If CAA has enough funds, he will do more than international innovation management companies!

Pay attention to everything in moderation.

Seeing that Michael Ovitz had been hit so hard that he could not force a smirk, Xia Yu showed a kind smile and returned to the topic: “Mr. Ovitz, if we cooperate, CAA can definitely become a top Hollywood brokerage company. You will realize your dreams, gain huge prestige and wealth, and I will improve the industrial chain and get a certain return on venture capital.”

“What do you think of my proposal?”

Michael Ovitz had already agreed to accept the investment of Polaris Capital at this time, but he completely lost the initiative during the whole process. If he rashly agreed, he would definitely be killed.

Moreover, although he was promoted to President by other partners last year, he has not much shares rights, only 25%, so he can’t be the master.

Thinking of this, he calmly said to Xia Yu with an apologetic face: “Mr. Xia, I am a bit confused now, and I can’t think clearly for the time being, and CAA has 5 other partners. This matter must be discussed in a group. Make a decision.”

Xia Yu smiled slightly and said understandingly: “I am understood, but I hope you will think about it. I am really optimistic about you.”

“Let’s do this today. It’s getting late. I also made an appointment with William Morris’ President Wiseborn in the morning. Now it’s over.”

Michael Ovitz’s heart sank, and he managed to squeeze out a smile, sending Xia Yu and the others out the door.

Watching the three Rolls-Royce Phantoms start to move towards the direction of the old owner, Michael Ovitz was under great pressure and immediately notified five partners to come to the company for an emergency meeting.
