There will naturally be no obstacles to [Quantum Entertainment] and [Quantum Music]. The controlling rights are all in the hands of the band. At least now, no one can obstruct the resolutions passed by Roger and others at the shareholders' meeting.

At the same time, on Universal Music Group, 42.6% of the shares in [Quantum Entertainment] will also support the merger of the two companies.

Forty-one percent of the remaining shares are in Vivendi's hands, which means that no matter whether the other small shareholders support or oppose, the right to choose is actually in Vivendi's hands.

If Vivandi agrees, even if the other small shareholders vote against it, it will not be able to stop the merger of the two companies.

Of course, the same goes for the other way around.

Therefore, if the standard practice is followed, Doug Morris will only convince Vivendi.

Considering Vivendi's situation in recent years and the concept of interests first, this is not a very complicated task.

The only trouble is that according to Roger's requirements, it is necessary to limit the possibility of Vivendi increasing its shares in the future financing of [Quantum-Universal Music Group] to ensure that Vivendi will not, or does not have the ability to interfere too much in the company.

But with Doug Morris' familiarity with Vivendi, this can only be said to be "difficulty" rather than "unable".

It can be difficult or easy to buy a person who is most profit-oriented.

The difficulty is that if you don't see enough benefits, they won't exchange anything with you.

The simplest thing is that as long as you give enough benefits to make the other party excited, let alone control of a company, you dare to sell your own blood relatives.

However, Roger's request was that all shareholders of Universal Music Group, regardless of their size, must vote in agreement on the proposal, and the merger of the two companies would really begin to advance.

As long as there is a vote against it, even if the shares in the opponent's hands are less than one percent, which is less than the threshold for entering the shareholders' meeting, Roger will give up promoting the merger between [Quantum Music] and Global, and continue to follow the route of mergers and acquisitions and splits.

Regarding this, Roger also gave an explanation that sounds a bit perfunctory and more like an excuse.

“Frankly, I’m also hesitating whether it’s right to do this.”

When talking about this topic, Roger was very honest, at least on the surface, he looked like he said something: "There are many benefits of the merger of the two companies, but this is the benefit of [Quantum-Universal Music Group]. As for [Quantum Entertainment], and how much benefits our band, and even me personally, can get from it, frankly, I can't see such a far-reaching future."

As he said that, Roger also joked, saying: "At least one 'loss' is in front of us: Once the two companies are merged into one, the issuance contract our band now enjoys must be changed, otherwise we may be sued by other shareholders for using the company's assets for personal gain."

Whether perfunctory or not, Roger always gave a reason that can be logically self-consistent.

Even if it is a bit far-fetched, it cannot be falsified at least, and Doug Morris has no position to continue asking questions.

I can only contact various shareholders of Universal Music Group according to Roger's request and test the other party's words.

Safety in all senses.
