John's absent-minded appearance when he left made Charlize really worried whether he could drive home smoothly.

And as the initiator of all this, Lit just stood quietly behind Charlize, watching John's taillight disappear into the night when he drove the car.

A gust of wind blew, and Charlize suddenly felt a little cold.

Lite took off his coat and put it on her and said, "Let's go back."

Charlize tightened his clothes and nodded silently.

When he walked into the elevator, the temperature was a little higher than outside. Charlize no longer felt cold, so he returned the coat to Litt.

The elevator began to move upwards, and when the floor number jumped from 3 to 4, Charlize spoke and broke the silence.

“Why do you do this?”

"What?"

"You promised to give John a 4% stake, and I don't believe you did it all because of me."

"What do you think is the reason?"

"I don't know, but I'm not a big star and it's not worth it."

“Not now, it doesn’t mean it’s not in the future.”

Charlize looked directly into Lite's eyes and suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart. It was obvious that the two had known each other for less than a long time, but now Lite gave her the feeling that she was a good friend she had known for many years.

Then she laughed.

"Should I say thank you?"

Li Te blinked at her tacitly. "It's not too late to talk about it after you really become a big star!"

The elevator door opened, and Charlize followed Lit out of the elevator, but he was still savoring what he said just now.

This scene fell in the eyes of the Wachowski brothers who had been hiding behind the crack in the door. It was obvious that Charlize and Lit had reached some kind of tacit understanding.

The two of them retreated from the crack in the door. Andy was about to leave, but Larry placed a hand in front of him.

"Take it!"

Andy scolded, took out a hundred dollars reluctantly and slapped Larry in his hand.

At this time, Li Te pushed the door and walked in.

Larry immediately put away the money he won and greeted Lit.

Andy also came over, but he was unwilling to give up on losing money and wanted to ask the matter clearly.

"How did you convince Charlize?"

Li Te, who was changing shoes, raised his head and looked at the Wachowski brothers with confusion, "I didn't convince her?"

"What?" Larry screamed, and Andy rushed towards him desperately, preparing to grab his $100.

Looking at the two brothers who were struggling for no reason, Li Te asked in confusion: "What the hell are you doing?"

"Wait! I said wait!" Larry stopped Andy's hand trying to reach into his pocket, "Can we figure out the problem first?"

Andy continued to hold Larry's body, "Isn't it clear? Litt didn't convince Charlize, so you lost!"

"But what do you explain when you saw the scene outside the door just now?" Larry was anxious, and regardless of Li Te being by the side, he loudly told the story of the two peeping.

Li Te was annoyed when he heard this, "You actually hid behind the door and peeked!"

Neither of the two brothers paid attention to Li Te's words and continued to argue for whom he lost. At the same time, his hands did not stop. One of them covered his pockets tightly, and the other tried desperately to break the other's hands apart.

Lit finally understood the whole story from the intermittent argument between the two, and then passed by them speechlessly, and said at the same time: "I didn't convince Charlize, but I should have convinced John."

The Wachowski brothers stopped moving, staring at Lit blankly.

"How did you do it?"

"As long as he agrees to take Charlize to AMG with me, I will give him a 4% stake." Lite took his cup and walked to the water dispenser, "As long as he is not broken, he should not refuse."

"Okay, you won!" After hearing this, Andy took the initiative to let go of Larry.

Larry sorted out the messed-up clothes and looked at Lit and said, "I don't know if John's brain is bad, but I'm sure your brain is bad. Why can that guy get 4% of the shares? Even if you are very interested in Charlize, you must get her, and you don't have to pay such a big price, right?"

Lit's eyes turned to Andy's face, "Do you think so?"

"No matter how much you admire Charlize, now she is just a famous newcomer, and John only has an actor like her, so you give him 4% of the shares. In the future, when you recruit agents with big-name artists, how many shares should you give them? Do you want to give the entire company to the other party?"

"Thank you for your reminder, but this is not only for Charlize, but also for my own considerations." Litt held the water cup. "AMG did a pretty job in operating the Matrix, and it also gave the company a certain reputation. But the fact that cannot be changed is that there are only two brothers in the company, Keanu and Kate, who are now in the company. Now Charlize has joined in, and I only gave John 4% of the shares, which is not really a big deal."

"You're not wrong? You actually put Charlize on the same position as us and Keanu!" Larry shouted.

Lite added with a water cup: "And Kate!"

"But both of them are just newcomers!"

"Strictly speaking, you are newcomers, aren't you?"

"What about Keanu?"

"In my evaluation system, current reputation is only part of the reference. What I value more is the potential of the future. After filming "The Matrix", you will become well-known directors, and Keanu is just returning to the ranks of first-tier movie stars. Although it is a bit frustrating to say this, I still have to say that "The Matrix" is likely to be the peak of Keanu's acting career. After this movie, as long as he can maintain his position forever, it will be very good. It may be difficult to go further. But you two brothers, Kate and Charlize, are different. You still have greater room for improvement and potential in the future. This is why I put you in the same position as Keanu."

After Lite explained, Larry was convinced, but Andy still has something to say.

"Well, even if you are optimistic about Charlize's potential, your value evaluation of AMG seems to have missed two very important parts. In addition to the customer resources in hand, your operational ability and Mr. Orwitz's connections are all company wealth that cannot be ignored. Even the value of stars cannot be compared with it. Unless you are planning to give 4% of your shares to John, do you think Mr. Orwitz will agree with your approach?"

Lite picked up the water cup and took a sip, then pointed at Andy and said, "I'm glad you can ask this. Of course, this 4% of shares cannot be just derived from my name. In fact, I am planning to use this as a company's expansion financing. If Mr. Orwitz agrees, it means that he is a partner who can cooperate for a long time. If he refuses, then I will consider leaving him alone when necessary. When I left CAA, I swore that I only work for myself in my life!"

Litt's thoughts shocked the Wachowski brothers, but when I think about it seriously, I think it's normal. After all, no one wants to live under the halo of others, even if that person is Orwitz.

Although he knew Li Te's plan, Andy was still a little worried.

"Do you think Mr. Orwitz will agree?"

"He will definitely do it."

Lite was full of confidence in this because Orwitz was a very particular person. During the CAA period, he was the company's president and super agent. Not only did he not engage in any personal heroism, but instead set an example and led everyone's team to fight.

Everyone in the company only has identities, no titles, no signs are placed in the office, and no one can use the conference room or reception room at any time. Even the payroll is arranged by the surname letters.

If AMG wants to grow and grow, it will definitely win over more agents who have big-name artists in the future. Orwitz has a clear understanding of this, so he will never stop what Lite is going to do now.

After Lite's analysis, Andy finally let go of his worries, and then couldn't help but tease, "You took the opportunity to test Mr. Orwitz, and let that guy John get a big advantage. I don't know if he will wake up from a smile tonight's dream!"

Lit suddenly laughed, "Do you really think 4% of the shares are so easy to get? As long as he agrees, although he is nominally Charlize's agent in the future, the company has the final say on what movies Charlize takes and what endorsements Charlize has. In the future, there will be a team to serve Charlize. In this way, even if John wants to change jobs in the future, Charlize will not follow him. And you mentioned just now that the company will attract more agents in the future. If John cannot prove that he is indeed qualified to own these 4% of the shares, then the first thing that is diluted when expanding shares and financing is his shares. The survival of the jungle is the eternal rule of the game in Hollywood!"
