As he spoke, Nate brainwashed Jimmy again,
"Jimmy, don't over-interpret this kind of thing."
"You will be a member of the board of directors in the future."
"Then you will know that those senior partners outside are actually tools for us to make money."
"Only when they do their jobs well and create more profits and value for the law firm can we sit back and relax and get a lot of cash every year."
"In other words, those people are our cattle and horses."
"We must tie them up with the best chains to prevent them from running away."
Jimmy nodded and said,
"I understand what you said."
"What I want to see now is the specific black materials of these people."
Nate said, "Don't worry, I will pass all these materials to you now,"
"But Jimmy, you must keep these materials 100% confidential,"
"And don't let those people outside know them,"
"Otherwise once they want to fight us to the death, it will be a huge loss for us."
As he spoke, Nate sent some documents to Jimmy one after another.
After reading these materials, Jimmy's face became more and more ugly.
Those senior partners who were similar to him on weekdays had actually been induced in various ways in the past few years,
Leaving a lot of illegal evidence.
Almost everyone's black material was enough to send him to prison and sentenced him to more than 5 years.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
Moreover, once these black materials were exposed,
They would not only suffer from imprisonment,
But also permanently lose the qualification to continue to be lawyers.
After reading these materials, Jimmy said to Nate:
"I am very grateful that you are willing to let me join the board of directors,"
"But I personally think that if it is only 100,000 stock options,"
"It is still much lower than I expected."
Then, Jimmy added: "Moreover,"
"You underestimated my loyalty."
"You only prepared a 5-year contract for me,"
"But I hope to work for Ellis for another ten years!"
Jimmy now thinks very clearly.
Originally, Charlie did not give him a penny and asked him to go to China to help,
Which was equivalent to cutting off all his income.
He and his family have to live off the mountain,
But later Charlie also opened a loophole for himself.
He asked Steve to endorse him to ensure that the Ellis Law Firm would continue to pay him salary in the next ten years,
And also reserved a 30% share for himself.
In other words, if he wants to make more money in the next 10 years,
He must make Ellis' salary base as large as possible, and the larger the better.
It is precisely because of this that he deliberately expressed the idea of continuing to work for Ellis for ten years.
Anyway, he can't escape from going to China for ten years,
And from a legal point of view, he was sent by Ellis and his salary was also given by Ellis,
This means that he will still have an employment relationship with Ellis in the next ten years,
So he might as well take this opportunity to use it as a bargaining chip for the transaction.
He went to China this time and saw clearly that this society is a huge food chain. Even people like Steve Routhchild have to be treated as food by Charlie,
Not to mention a small person like himself.
Therefore, Charlie treats himself as food, and he treats Nate as food.
Nate heard Jimmy's statement and felt mixed emotions.
The good news is that keeping Jimmy should not be a problem.
After all, Jimmy is willing to sign a ten-year contract with the company,
So he won't offend Steve Routhchild.
What he was worried about was that Jimmy was not satisfied with the five or six million options dividends per year,
Which meant that he would have 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,"
"I can increase your options to 150,000 shares."
Jimmy waved his hand and said,
"If it doubles from 5 to 10 years,"
"Then you have to at least double it for me, 200,000 options,"
"And double the base salary."
"If you have no problem, you can sign the contract now and I will sign it on the spot."
"If you have any problems, then we don't need to talk more, just let me resign and I will leave!"
Nate was extremely depressed when he heard this.
The doubling of options meant that at least 10 million dollars would be distributed to Jimmy every year.
If the base salary doubled again, at least 2 million would be spent.
In this way, the money distributed to Jimmy alone would be more than 20 million every year!
At this time, Jimmy was also calculating his future income in his mind.
He thought to himself, "If we calculate based on an annual dividend of 200 million dollars, 200,000 stock options should be able to get 12 million,"
"And the base salary doubled is 4 million dollars."
"Add to that my previous option dividends as a senior partner,"
"And after deducting the performance commission, there will be about 18 million dollars."
"Of this 18 million dollars, Charlie took 70%, and I got 30%,"
"Which is still more than 5 million dollars,"
"Which is enough for the daily expenses of my family."
Thinking of this, he suddenly realized something,
"No! If I take ten senior partners away from Ellis,"
"The core backbone of Ellis will be drained."
"It will be a question of whether it can still make a profit next year."
"Where will the money be for dividends?"
"In that case, won't there only be a base salary of 4 million dollars?"
"By then, I will only get 1.2 million a year!"
