Chapter 469

    From dusk and sunset to the lights of tall buildings, Manhattan is a sea of lights.


    Restaurant estitorio Milos, which claims to bring Greece to New York City. Olive trees and beach umbrellas create an interesting Greek style. In the reinforced concrete city of New York, it is a good place to "steal half a day''s leisure".


    It has a bright and airy atmosphere. At the same time, many fresh vegetables, seafood and fishery products are displayed in the middle of the hall like a bazaar, so that the gourmet guests can immediately arouse their appetite when they see these colorful ingredients.


    "Ding --"


    on the white dining table, Arthur, with a graceful smile, touched the goblet with red wine in his hand with Gary Lopez, the chief executive of AMC. He drank together, looked at each other with a smile, and put down the glasses one after another.


    "Ha ha, believe my information, you should also be very clear, for the business world, I can only be regarded as a newcomer, but my greatest advantage is that I understand and am willing to share the fruits of success with others. My idea is to make money together and make money together.


    For example, the newly launched coastal power plant has created dozens of millionaires at a time. I have never been a miser... "


    Arthur smiles and looks across at Gerry Lopez, very sincerely, and Gerry Lopez also agrees with what the young count said.


    "To tell you the truth, I didn''t expect that it would be so difficult to acquire AMC cinema company this time. The five holding funds are totally squeezing the potential value of AMC and carrying such huge debts, but they are still paying old debts with new debts, accumulating more debts, and trying to earn more through IPO.


    To be honest, the future of AMC cinema company is very worrying. If it is listed successfully, before the debt matures, they will certainly get rid of the AMC company which has been drained by them. At that time, some people will take over this mess and will be willing to spend money. Fortunately, once the debt defaults, the company will only have bankruptcy protection.


    I believe that this is not what the company''s management and all employees want to see. Of course, even if my acquisition fails this time and the five major funds mess up the company, there will be other capital waiting for opportunities. Capital is eternal, cold, and most efficient. The war in the capital market will never stop.


    However, what I want to tell you is that my emphasis on AMC cinema is not to use it to circle money and capital operation, but to do a good job in the cinema. I want to build an international cinema line across North America and Europe!


    As the victims of AMC''s acquisition, they can only be the victims of their acquisition, but I hope that they can continue to be the victims of the financial arbitrage


    Arthur''s words are not sincere and thorough, without the slightest concealment of the reality, but also let the smile opposite Gary Lopez''s expression congealed, gloomy eyes, frown and pondered.


    For Gary''s meditation, Arthur did not disturb, but waited patiently. He took a sip of the red wine and gracefully put the glass back on the table.


    "What can the management get if they cooperate with your acquisition? Can you promise to protect the principal with a golden parachute? "


    Hearing the other party''s questions, Arthur could not help shaking his head and chuckling. The so-called golden parachute protection, that is, the resignation compensation scheme, is generally a preparation for anti takeover.


    "If you need it, I can promise to give golden parachute protection. However, what I hope is that the management can stay and continue to work for AMC cinema company. I hope to complete a smooth transition. I also need professional management talents like you to help me operate and manage the company."


    Arthur agreed without hesitation, and at the same time expressed his importance to the management of them. With a bright smile, he held out his finger and continued to say to Gary Lopez, who was slightly moved by what he said.


    "According to my understanding, AMC''s revenue system is divided into three parts: basic annual salary, annual performance bonus and long-term equity incentive. Is that right? "


    Gary Lopez looked at Arthur, who held out three fingers and was smiling, nodded and said, "yes."


    “。。。 Among them, the annual performance bonus is divided into corporate performance and personal performance. If my acquisition is successful, then during the transitional period, my requirement is that the net profit of AMC should be assessed by US $1 million. If it is less than $1 million, the company performance part of the annual performance bonus will not be paid.


    Over $1 million, the management can get the annual performance bonus as agreed. If the net profit exceeds $1 million a step, AMC will issue an additional annual performance award of 5%. Personal performance evaluation is not based on net income, but on whether key performance is up to standard, including contribution to strategic and financial objectives. What do you think of this requirement? "


    Lopez''s eyes were bright, but he didn''t say anything else.


    "No problem at all, and I''m sure everyone will be very satisfied!""Ha ha..." Arthur laughed happily and said, "that''s good. Of course, the bonus of the personal incentive part of the management will also be greatly increased. For example, your incentive can be increased from 70% to 90% of your annual salary, and that of Craig Ramsey and John McDonald, executive vice presidents, can be increased from 65% to 70%.


    As for equity incentive... If AMC goes public in the future, I can set the upper limit of share award, that is, 10% of the total number of shares to the management! "


    "Hoo --"


    when he heard Arthur''s offer, Gerry Lopez was really moved. He took a breath out of his heart and looked into the eyes of the young and impudent Earl of England. He had a lot of good feeling and admiration.


    Although young, but the handwriting and pattern is really very big, the conditions given are very grounded, people can not refuse.


    "Thank you for your attention to us. I believe my colleagues will be very happy with your generous treatment."


    Hearing Gary''s words, Arthur''s smile became more and more brilliant. He knew that the effect of his commitment to donate money was very successful. At the same time, he also saw how unpopular the five controlling shareholders were in the AMC cinema.


    In enterprises, there are no managers who like shareholders to cash in profits with various names, draw blood from the company and squeeze the value of the company. Even if the shareholders give these managers high treatment, they are undoubtedly using their career to exchange for short-term windfall profits.


    Of course, Arthur will not just throw money. Naturally, he has the same requirements for these management to give them preferential treatment. Both sides are very clear about this. But now, it is not the time to say that, after all, Arthur has not acquired AMC.


    However, these promises can let Arthur get the sincere help of AMC management. Nothing can win a hundred battles more than inside and outside.


    After a happy dinner, Gary Lopez, with Arthur''s generous commitment, contacted all the senior managers and held a video conference to unify their thoughts and make decisions.


    When Arthur received a call from Gary Lopez the next morning, he sent someone to get a file bag from him. He saw the detailed business list, asset catalog, debt list and AMC confidential information. He couldn''t help laughing.
