I need to finalize the vote of the Riveras. We been courting them long enough. I need to meet Dina and Carlos again. I asked Dina to prepare the proposal. If they are in we have to know now. Dina came with folder in her hand. Then the Riveras came. We decided to meet at a fancy restaurant far from the company, they have private rooms so nobody can hear what we are going to talk about.
"Good day Mr. Rivera. How are you today?" I greeted the old man while Dina directed Carlos on his seat.
"I'm good. The Doctors cleared me already." He answered.
"I want to make sure your heart is sttong to make decision Mr. Arturo. Please check our data. Here you can see it in the middle. You can go back on the introduction anytime." We presented the sales of our last 3 projects to the right away. They need to see the actual numbers to make them decide bravely that they are doing the right thing.
"Carlos witnessed the sales first hand. He saw with his own eyes how the people warmly accepted our movies. Right now we are still exclusive between 2 families, you know who they are but I think you would like to be part of this considering the cash back. Plus the short period of time to actually get back the earnings. All you need to do it give as a go. Then everything is just wait and wait and wait. You need to do nothing but be our ally. Be part of our Entertainment industry, earn hundreds of million in just 6 months in return for your 15% vote favoring the Pontis." Dina presented. The old man looks like he is sweating he knows how this scene will go but still can't decide.
" I check your contract with the Alejandros, Mr. Rivera. It says there with your vote to June general meeting, you will get the benefits that they promised you in a period of 2 years. As far as we know you arleady given them your vote with that date, that specific date June general meeting so that contract is fulfilled. This October and the period of 10 years I need you to pledge that you will be on our side." I proposed to the old man.
" I can't decide. I can see how promising this Agency that you young girls created but I can't. I want to peave it to Carlos. Everything is for him anyway. I will leave my company and my shares to him so I want him to decide if he still can get into this another venture. What do you think son?" We all look at Carlos as the old man mention his name. He is caught off guard of what his father did.
"Wow, Hmmm." He scratched his chin then smile. " I want it Dad. I want to join force with these smart ladies." He stated with confidence. Me and Dina celebrated as we hear that statement from Carlos.
"I guess you have to cast the vote yourself Carlos since I don't know how to face the Alejandros now." He stated jokingly but half meant true.
"Don't worry about that Dad. I can manage it." He reassured his Dad.
"In anycase our family will help each other in any trouble Mr. Rivera. I promise you that." I shake the hands of the old man so is Carlos. While Dina hugged Carlos with joy. The old man noticed that the two grown closer in a period of months.
We planned for a celebration. We can do it here already, we just need to call more people. Talia, Zoren, my family and Dina's family. We can't invite so much friends because this has to remain secret before the next general assembly meeting.
