"Shhhhh..."

Lin Tao moved his pen like a fly and quickly signed his name at the bottom of the contract. When George completed the same action, a share transfer contract was born.

Li Hui stood between the two of them. As a witness and advisor to the signing of the contract, he needed to fulfill his duties.Take the contract signed by the two people, take a copy from each of them, and then let the two of them have another contract.

"From now on, the contract takes effect!"

Lin Tao smiled all over his face, stood up and shook hands with George, and said at the same time, "George, I hope we can have a happy cooperation in the future!"

George's face was very ugly, his mouth moved, hesitant to speak, and if he didn't say anything in the end, but just nodded at Lin Tao, it was considered a response.

Kane, the executive director of Paramount, stood beside George. Mr. Lin Tao glanced at Lin Tao. He really deserved a beating for his villainous appearance. Then he sighed again. It is all his fault that George can get to this point. I didn't see it clearly, and got into such a big trouble.

To be honest, Kane thinks that Lin Tao is really a bit of a lion, and it's okay to lose money, so why is he coveting Paramount's stock?You must know that even if you get some shares from George, you can't become a major shareholder with the right to speak. If you don't have the right to speak, what's the point of being this shareholder?

Of course, this is from Kane’s point of view. In Lin Tao’s view, as long as you become a shareholder first, you can take your time to speak, especially as a film company, its performance is particularly vulnerable to external influences. Look at what happened back then. The mighty MGM knew it, and it wasn't about bankruptcy and reorganization in the end.

Therefore, Lin Tao's idea is definitely not that troublesome. He just wants to establish a firm foothold for Paramount now, and then try to figure out the identity of the major shareholder step by step.

From 17% to 13%, George felt very distressed, and now that he has signed, he feels even more distressed.Regardless of the fact that 4% of the shares are few in terms of numbers, the actual value is different, not to mention the right to speak, George has been weakened a lot in one fell swoop.

Originally holding 17% of the shares, he can be regarded as a major shareholder in the board of directors. Lin Tao now holds 4% of the shares, which is enough for him to enter the board of directors. The number of shares is the same, but the market value is over 20 million.In order to bring the company back to life, Paramount made the same decision a few years ago, that is, shareholders sold shares to raise funds in proportion, so that many shares were in the hands of ordinary shareholders. This is a very objective investment. However, in the current situation, it is difficult to recover all of them, which has caused the shareholders of the board of directors to hold the highest stock, which is only 17% of the current chairman. It can be seen that George holds [-]% Shares have a say in the board of directors.

George was originally unwilling to transfer, but Lin Tao invited Li Hui here, and when he said it face to face, George immediately persuaded him, not because he was not tough enough, but because if he went to court, he would face more than 10 charges , among them is the prostitution of underage girls, which is equivalent to hitting his fatal spot. You must know that sleeping with underage girls in the United States is a very serious matter. Once the public opinion criticizes him, Even Paramount won't stand up to speak for him, and even take the initiative to distance itself.

George didn't want to be an abandoned child. If that time came, the stocks in his hand would be forcibly transferred, and he would really have nothing.

The last straw that crushed him was Li Hui, the owner of the largest Chinese law firm on the West Coast. He had a high reputation in the judicial circle and was good friends with many judges and prosecutors. It is a unique skill. The entire law firm rarely loses a lawsuit from top to bottom. When any law firm hears that the opponent is Mike Lee, it almost unanimously shakes its head and refuses to accept the commission, even if it is from New York. If a lawyer comes over, he may lose the case because he is not familiar with the state law. George dare not try at all.

Based on these points, George could only swallow this bitter pill alone and accept this very unequal request.

Lin Tao will formally become a member of the board of directors after he gets 4% of Paramount shares. Although he is smiling, his identities are different after all, not to mention that with the backing of Paramount, it will be easier for Phantom Studios to work in Hollywood Some.

Lin Tao's appetite is definitely not just a Paramount, but has risen to the entire Hollywood. If we want to do it, we must do our best. Even if we can't acquire one of the largest companies, we must make Phantom Studios the best. One of the major film and television companies in China.

"Lin, congratulations on becoming a director of Paramount!" Kane stretched out his hand towards Lin Tao.

Lin Tao smiled and said, "Thank you!" Then he shook hands with him, "Mr. Kane, please take care of me in the future!"

"You're welcome, let's make progress together." Kane chuckled.

George didn't want to stay any longer, and immediately said to Kane: "Let's go!"

Kane nodded and said to Lin Tao: "Then let's go first, see you later!"

After the two left, Li Hui couldn't help sighing: "You are so ruthless, you bit off 4% of Paramount's shares in one fell swoop, I think not only George, but even that Kane look a bit ugly, I guess You have offended Paramount shareholders."

"I didn't do anything, I just played a little trick." Lin Tao smiled slightly, his goal was achieved, and his trip to the United States was almost over.

Phantom Studio is handed over to Guo Yiling, Lin Tao is completely at ease, and with the help of Stephanie, as long as there are no mistakes in the accounting, Li Hui has the legal aspect. It can be said that the studio is on the right track, and he can focus more on it. domestic.

Before leaving the United States, Lin Tao went to express his gratitude to Taylor. She tried her best to protect it even though she knew there was a problem, which fully demonstrated the profound friendship established between the two parties.

Lin Tao decided to take a stake in Taylor's clothing company, and Taylor still has the leading management right, and Lin Tao is only responsible for the year-end dividends.Of course, Taylor would not refuse. After all, relying on himself to develop the company still has some limitations. Funding is a big problem, and the appearance of Lin Tao just solved this problem.

After the two reached an agreement, they signed the contract under the witness of Li Hui. At this point, Lin Tao's work in the United States was basically completed, and he bought a plane ticket for the next day to return home.

However, Lin Tao received a call that day, which made him change his mind. He immediately changed the ticket to today, the latest flight, and flew directly back to China.
