King of Hollywood

After the Stanford fights, Adrian and Claude finally closed the gap created by the group's listing, and men do sometimes communicate more easily with their fists. Then everything seemed to start moving in the right direction, but unfortunately, just two days later, that fantasy was broken.

It all started with a video, a video that I don't know who uploaded to youtube, titled Live Miracle Director Fighting. It's not very clear, it looks like it was taken on a cell phone, but it's basically recognizable that a middle-aged man waving his fist was the famous Superdirector of Hollywood and the new Iron Man Adrian. Corwell.

It wasn't long before the movie boom started, and Adrian had always been a celebrity, and it was conceivable how much attention would be paid to videos with such a title - a few hours later, the click-through rate would be a million.

“We can clearly identify the two men who fought in the video as Adrian, chairman of the board of directors of AC Media. Corwell, and Claude, president and CEO of AC Media. Ron Rice, this is obviously an unusual fight, and to reckon with the fact that AC Media first came out of the market, but soon became a tier 1 market financing, we can totally deduce that the two founders of AC Media showed signs of division.” Fox News Channels under News Group spearheaded the story on TV and played their traditional “attitude” style.

Though adrian and claude's identities were disregarded, they did not distort much. But a “fight” word is enough to explain a lot of problems, and with a title like "AC Media Two High Fists Against Each Other”, it's easy to direct people's thoughts.

Since then, major media outlets have begun to reproduce huge cracks between Adrian and Claude, as well as a quick walk through the video. Although this is just a super gossip to ordinary people, it's always fun to have a super director who seems to have everything to do with the scenery, who also fights his own best friend. But for investors. But this is a serious problem. How can they invest in a group where there is disagreement and even huge disagreement among the top?

Also, soon, journalists took photographs of Adrian and Claude, respectively, and although they were both covered up, some traces could still be seen underneath the high-definition footage that journalists had deliberately prepared. And soon someone found the original author of the video. One of Stanford's janitors said he didn't mean to see it. If he was an Adrian fan again, he'd just gone to see Iron Man, so he recognized him at a glance, so he took this shot with his phone.

This proved neither hypocrisy nor conspiracy, adding to the credibility of the two, even though Adrian and Claude, through their spokespersons, subsequently stated that there was nothing between them but a small fight, something that everyone would do.

“Has anyone ever had a fight with their own brother?” Adrian also wrote this passage on his Facebook. Several photographs were also posted for the evening party.

Unfortunately, it didn't do much good. Some financial magazine commentators started publishing articles questioning the internal situation of the AC media, and Wall Street became more hesitant and less successful in financing operations.

This was compounded by a sudden surprise, when an AC employee who had resigned revealed that Adrian and Claude had had a heated argument over whether the group was listed. “The voices were so loud that they could hear each other so quoted, even at the door, and they were well tuned.

“From arguing to fighting, who can tell me what will happen next?” That's what one commentator said on TV.

this side of the AC media denied it for the first time. It was also stated that the separation employee would be retained the power to refer to the law, but rumours of internal discord were overwhelming. In particular, some journalists say that the two founding fathers have so far met only to nod their heads and say hello, completely missing the usual intimacy.

Although Adrian and Claude soon appeared in front of the media through a fundraiser, Adrian appeared by Will. Starring Smith, Gao Lady played the actress's premiere of "I'm a Legend," and repeatedly called herself and Claude without contradiction, but was always interpreted by the outside world as an attempt to compensate, so that adverse rumours about the ac media continued to ferment in the media.

Fortunately, they are not listed companies, otherwise the stock profiles would certainly be unacceptable to some hard-hearted investors, but even so, the Group's operations in this area have been considerably affected. And after almost a month of delay, the word "no” —— questioning the AC media became louder -- came up on Wall Street, and someone finally jumped out.

“This is indeed a major setback, but it will not affect our development, until, of course, someone must be held accountable," said an executive director of the AC Media Board during an interview after Independence Day.

In fact, a few days later, he joined some of the board members and asked the group to convene the board and hold it accountable.

“This is a common disease for too rapidly expanding emerging groups, and shareholders can choose to ignore it if the momentum continues to rise, even if there are contradictions, but the rifts between them widen rapidly once major problems arise.” This one to two months of AC media attention has naturally not been able to hide such news, and some commentators have commented with guns and sticks.

“I don't care what the other media say, I never thought too much of it, I want a reasonable explanation for this!” Bruce, one of the executive directors of AC Media, said earlier to be accountable and to convene the board of directors. Kahn sat at the bottom of the long table in the conference room and said in a powerful tone, his eyes swept past Claude on the upper left from time to time.

He's a middle-aged man in his 40s. Always decent to wear, relatively conservative, and very concerned about financial budgets and investment programmes.

“Of course, Bruce, but... the meeting hasn't started yet.” with Robert the Executive Director. Fleming had an awkward dry cough and then squeezed the empty seat on his eyes.

As Chairman of the Board of Directors, knowing that this time the Board was directed against his own best party, has not yet appeared, and what the representative means to know.

Sure enough, after the initiator made a sound. Someone couldn't hold it together: "What does it matter, before we can set the agenda for today? ”

“Yeah, it's not contradictory, is it?” Someone followed.

Undoubtedly, Kahn has already pulled together a group of directors who would not have asked for a board meeting at this time.

“There is no contradiction at all, and I just want to know why, as President and CEO, Mr. Ronlis had serious problems communicating with Mr. President.” Take advantage of the opportunity to chat and win a lot of pageant. Kahn immediately began to suffer further and looked at Claude without blinking.

“There can be no more communication problems between people.” Claude doesn't know what to say.

“You have been communicating very well with Mr. President until then. This is number one; your poor communication has serious consequences, and this is number two.” Kahn seems aggressive, "in any case, it is an irrefutable fact. Beyond that, I have heard that you, Mr. President, did not even hear about the listing before you raised it, and I think you need to explain that. ”

Suddenly, there was noise in the conference room and all kinds of whispering fluctuated. Even the directors couldn't help but look at Claude, and one of them frowned and said, “Is Bruce telling the truth, Claude? ”

Though it is clear to all of you that, because of Adrian's devolution, Claude can indeed circumvent whatever he wants to do, if he doesn't say anything, just let him know when it's over. That's just the rhythm of tearing your face off. Are they really splitting up? Some directors looked at the empty seats and looked uncertain.

“I do have a conflict with Adrian in this regard, but after intense discussion and calm, an understanding has been reached," Claude still has no expression. “We all agree to level-I market financing. ”

But the light-hearted answer was not satisfactory, so Kahn took it immediately: "But you can't explain why Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan had promised to go from listing to further market financing. Well, even if Mr. Chairman and you have reached an understanding, what happens next? If what happened to Stanford was an accident, how did our media deal with it when everyone questioned us? Confusion, mindlessness, inconsistency, inconsistency and lack of access to data completely defeated the dirty water that poured on us, eventually leading to the failure of financing. ”

He didn't hide the sarcasm of the tone, he didn't give it a face, he made it clear it was against Claude.

“What happened to Stanford was an accident, in which case it was unwise for the media to make a massive plea, and we could only circumvent it and fight back until it calmed down a little.” Claude never had a face.

Nor does he make sense of these remarks, but at this point in time, in the eyes of other directors, he is no different from Guru's responsibility to push.

“As Mr. President's best friend, you should never have let anything happen to Stanford!” Kahn said sharply at once.

“Bruce, it's not Mr. Ronnies' responsibility.” Fleming seemed to want to persuade him, but instead he put the final topic in his hands.

“Unfortunately, it's his responsibility!” Kahn's hands flashed, "If none of this is true, I can't imagine any more responsibility for Mr. Ronris as president and CEO! ”

He said aloud: "Therefore, in view of the losses suffered by the company, I recommend that Mr. Rohnlis be removed from office! ”

Several alliances that had already been joined by Kanla were immediately attached, and the remaining neutral directors showed hesitation, especially when they saw the empty seat on the top. I just don't know why. Claude doesn't have a face. Is he dead? Or is there a card?

“Well, we are now…” Kahn glanced proudly at Claude. I was just going to keep talking, and then I heard a voice coming from the front door of the conference room: "I'm sorry I'm late, Brooklyn's on the way. Miss Decor went to the studio and chatted in the car for a few more minutes. I hope it's not too late. ”

Speaking in such a relaxed tone, it's like nothing to worry about, naturally the president of AC Media, famous Hollywood playboy Adrian. Cowell's up. Look at his cheerful smile. The so-called chatting in the car was just a pretext, and just because a woman got in his car, it was like getting in his bed.

“What are you guys talking about, Claude?” After sitting in his position, Adrian asked his partner with a smile, a gesture that suddenly drowned in some hearts.

“About - how to dismiss me.” Claude shrugged.

“Remove you? Why?" Adrian revealed a strange mystery.

“We hold Mr. Rownlis accountable for this.” Kahn began by saying that although it was very serious, it was somewhat disturbing.

“Are you talking about being photographed fighting and then causing the financing to fail?” Adrian asked.

“Yes, Mr. President, and we believe. You didn't initially know about the listing.” Kahn took a deep breath.

“Yes, I didn't know that at first," I didn't expect Adrian to nod, "but I did, and I just grazed the plan he sent me, completely out of my mind. Of course, we argued about it, but we ended up taking a step back. Decide to finance in the tier one market. It's just that some of the creeps didn't come apart, and then I got in a fight because I remembered some of the contradictions I had when I was at the Stanford. Didn't expect a cleaner to end up failing to raise money… Well, Claude does have some responsibilities, but so do I. ”

After that sentence came out, several people changed their faces. Especially Bruce. Kahn and previously attached to his director. When Adrian said that, he expressed support for Claude, it was impossible to dismiss Claude, knowing that Adrian was not only the person with the largest number of shares on the board. He is also a major shareholder in the AC media as a whole and can pass any resolution as long as he joins with Claude.

And the reason why Kahn would strike out Claude was because of his disagreement with Adrian. It was true, as rumoured outside, that since the fight for the market, the two people rarely met, and even when they met, they were very cold, so Kahn thought of something else. In his view, if there really was a huge rift between the two, as long as they stood firm on Adrian's side, there was a good chance that Claude would replace them.

Bubbly ambitions, coupled with hints of an empty chair seat at the meeting, eventually made Kahn gamble. Unexpectedly, in the light of today's situation, these two people are simply acting, so that some people can jump out on their own.

“So is there anything else?” Adrian then asked.

A few directors look at me, I see you, all shaking your head independently, so set together that even if there are issues, you dare not raise them, God knows what else they intend to do.

“Well, then I have a proposition.” Adrian's smile became subtle at this time, and several directors, including Kahn, couldn't help but tighten their minds. Is it so soon?!

“I propose to cancel Robert. Fleming's Executive Director qualifies and is deported from the Board.” Who knows what comes out of Adrian's mouth?

The conference room was quiet for a few seconds, followed by a glimpse of Kahn, who thought he was going to deport Claude, how could he turn to Fleming, who had spoken for Claude before?

“This... why is this?” Fleming looked shocked.

“Did you say something wrong, Adrian?” A director immediately asked, looking a little unsafe.

“Yeah, for what reason would Robert be expelled?” Another director rushed to ask, making no sense to deport the director and also the executive director, only putting everyone at risk.

“Selling the Group's classified information to Rupert. Murdoch, is that a good enough reason?” Adrian, with a smile on his face, said in a gentle tone, then greeted him, and soon an assistant came in through the door and placed the prepared folder in front of the directors.

Everyone, including Bruce. Kahn, among other things, was shocked when he glanced at Fleming with a white face and quickly turned over the folder in his hand. Adrian's voice echoed as they moved: “On April 23, you and Murdoch met at the Rafael Club, and on the third day, the original intent was taken away half a month after the requisite takeover; on May 13, you and Murdoch had a phone call, and a week later, the Advertiser I saw was bought by Fox for a lot of money; on June 19, you had a few private conversations with Murdoch at a charity evening at the Four Seasons Hotel, and then an employee left, and a dispute between me and Claude appeared. ”

He smiled and looked at Fleming, who was already pale: "Want me to continue, Robert? ”

And then he came up with something, and he said, "Oh, yeah, there's another one, which incites Bruce to hold a board meeting and wreak havoc on Claude. ”

Kahn glanced hard at Fleming and then revealed his fear of Adrian. He didn't think of Fleming's unintentional words, but he was convinced that he was being used as a gun, not to mention that Adrian and Claude were clear about it, and he couldn't help but sweat for a moment.

“I only put some pictures in the file, as well as information about your cousin's position in the press group, and I don't want to take out any audio or video, and I don't want to know how much Murdoch has given you. I just want to say," Adrian closed his smile and pointed to the door of the conference room, "and now get out of here. ”

Then Fleming, who lost his soul, stood up and shook out, accompanied by a low curse from the directors.

“Okay, guys,” Adrian clapped again after Fleming left, "I'm sure you're not interested in discussing anything else at this point, so let's just adjourn, but until the new executive director is elected, I propose that Bruce take care of Robert's work —— okay? ”

The last sentence was directed at Kahn, who was stunned and had no idea that such a thing would happen.

“Anyway, you're doing it for the good of the company.” Adrian laughed.
