Knight said: "Don't worry, I will pass on all this information to you now. But Jimmy, you must keep this information 100% confidential and not let those outside know it. Otherwise, if they want to fight us to the death, they will do nothing to us." It�s also a huge loss.�
With that said, Knight sent some documents to Jimmy one after another.
After reading these materials, Jimmy's face became even more ugly.
Those senior partners who are usually similar to him have actually been induced by various inducements in the past few years and left a large amount of illegal evidence. Almost everyone's black evidence is enough to send him to prison and give him a sentence. More than 5 years, and if these black materials are exposed, they will not only be imprisoned, but will also permanently lose the qualification to continue to be lawyers.
After reading these materials, Jimmy said to Knight: "I am really grateful that you are willing to let me join the board of directors, but I personally feel that if it is only 100,000 share options, it is still much lower than I expected. �
With that said, Jimmy added: "Moreover, you underestimated my loyalty. You only prepared a five-year contract for me, but I hope to work for Ellis for another ten years!"
Jimmy thought clearly now. Originally, if Ye Chen didn't give him a penny and asked him to go to China to help, it would be equivalent to cutting off all his income, and he and his family would have to sit back and eat. But later, Ye Chen gave him a prescription. He asked Steve to endorse him to ensure that Ellis Law Firm would continue to pay him a salary in the next ten years, and he also left himself a 30% share.
In other words, if you want to make more money in the next 10 years, you must make Ellis's salary base as large as possible, and the bigger the better.
It was precisely because of this that he deliberately expressed his intention to continue working for Ellis for ten years. Anyway, he would not be able to escape after going to China for ten years, and legally speaking, he was sent out by Ellis. Yes, the salary is also provided by Ellis, which means that for the next ten years, the relationship with Ellis will still be an employment relationship, so we might as well take this opportunity to use it as a bargaining chip.
This time he went to China and he finally understood that this society is a huge food chain. Even people like Steve Rothschild are treated as food by Ye Chen, let alone a little person like himself. .
Therefore, Marven regarded himself as food, and he regarded Nat Ellis as food.
When Knight heard Jimmy's statement, he felt mixed feelings.
Fortunately, retaining Jimmy should not be a problem. After all, Jimmy is willing to sign a ten-year contract with the company. In this case, he will not offend Steve Rothschild.
What worries him is that Jimmy is not satisfied with the annual option dividends of five to six million, which indicates that he will continue to bleed further.
After thinking for a moment, he said: "Jimmy, let's do this. If you are willing to sign a 10-year agreement with the group, then I can increase the option to you to 150,000 shares."
Jimmy waved his hand: "It's doubled from 5 to 10 years, so you have to at least double it, 200,000 options, and double the basic salary. If you have no problem, you can sign the contract now. I�ll sign on the spot. If you have any questions, then we don�t need to talk anymore. Just let me leave and I�ll leave!�
When Knight heard this, he felt extremely depressed.
Doubling the options means that Jimmy will have to be given at least US$10 million every year. If the basic salary is doubled, an additional expenditure of at least US$2 million will be required. In this way, the amount of money allocated to Jimmy alone will cost Jimmy every year. More than 20 million!
At this time, Jimmy was also calculating his future income in his mind. He thought to himself: "If calculated based on the annual dividend of 200 million US dollars, the 200,000 share options should be distributed to 12 million, and doubling the basic salary would be 400." Ten thousand US dollars, plus the option dividends from my previous role as a senior partner, after deducting the performance commission, it is almost 18 million US dollars. "
"Marven took 70% of the eighteen million U.S. dollars, and I was left with 30%. I still have more than five million U.S. dollars, which is enough for the family's daily expenses."
Thinking of this, he suddenly realized something: "No! If I take away ten senior partners from Ellis, then Ellis' core team will be drained. Whether it can still make profits next year is a question. How can I use it for dividends? In that case, I will only have a basic salary of 4 million US dollars, and then I will only receive 1.2 million US dollars a year!"
Little did Knight know at this time that Jimmy already had other plans.
Although he was reluctant to give up the option of 200,000 shares, but when he thought about the behemoth Rothschild family standing behind Jimmy, he could only grit his teeth and agree, saying: "Okay! 200,000 shares is 200,000 shares." ! For two hundred thousand stock options, it is relatively safe to receive US$12 million per year. As our business not only improves, the annual dividend amount will definitely increase further. Jimmy, you are at Ellis Law Firm. The future is limitless!�
Although Knight made this decision with the conviction of a strong man cutting off his wrist, Jimmy frowned again at this time. JrNovels.com
