1
0:1:3,732 --> 0:1:7,68
Hello, and shalom,
and thank you for coming.
2
0:1:7,152 --> 0:1:10,822
If you're watching this, well,
you probably know who I am.
3
0:1:10,906 --> 0:1:14,701
For those of you just tuning in,
my name is Adam Neumann.
4
0:1:14,784 --> 0:1:17,162
And I am many things.
5
0:1:17,245 --> 0:1:20,832
Immigrant, entrepreneur, husband,
father, disrupter, maverick,
6
0:1:20,916 --> 0:1:25,86
creator, and founder and CEO
of The We Company,
7
0:1:25,170 --> 0:1:29,257
the third most valuable private company
in the world.
8
0:1:30,508 --> 0:1:33,762
I could give you my version
of how we got here,
9
0:1:33,845 --> 0:1:36,431
but that is the past.
10
0:1:36,514 --> 0:1:39,476
And I am more interested in the future.
11
0:1:39,559 --> 0:1:42,354
So come with me. Come with me.
12
0:1:42,437 --> 0:1:46,358
It is time for the We revolution.
13
0:1:56,743 --> 0:1:57,577
Line.
14
0:1:59,79 --> 0:2:1,748
These are the new talking points.
Stick to them.
15
0:2:1,831 --> 0:2:2,874
Hang up the phone.
16
0:2:2,958 --> 0:2:4,334
Don't say anything but new talking points.
17
0:2:4,417 --> 0:2:5,502
Hang up the phone, Cindy!
18
0:2:5,585 --> 0:2:7,462
-Hang up the phone!
-God dammit!
19
0:2:7,546 --> 0:2:9,838
Just tell them we'll call them back later.
Do not comment.
20
0:2:9,923 --> 0:2:11,466
-What?
-Wall Street Journal.
21
0:2:11,550 --> 0:2:13,885
It is our S-1. We're very proud of it.
I have to go now. Thank you.
22
0:2:16,680 --> 0:2:17,722
This is Damian.
23
0:2:18,723 --> 0:2:20,850
No, I don't have a comment on the S-1.
It speaks for itself.
24
0:2:20,934 --> 0:2:22,310
Oh, my God. Hand me napkins.
25
0:2:22,394 --> 0:2:24,604
-Cereal-- What cereal box?
-Hi.
26
0:2:24,688 --> 0:2:26,606
-No, he's not. We're aware.
-Okay.
27
0:2:26,690 --> 0:2:28,358
What about a cereal box?
28
0:2:33,989 --> 0:2:35,156
Why are you here?
29
0:2:37,576 --> 0:2:38,952
To-- To--
30
0:2:40,78 --> 0:2:41,830
To talk about the S-1.
31
0:2:44,541 --> 0:2:46,626
It's perfect, is it not?
32
0:2:46,710 --> 0:2:48,336
I mean, we think it's perfect.
33
0:2:48,420 --> 0:2:51,172
-Yeah. We love it.
-Absolutely, so…
34
0:2:54,50 --> 0:2:58,221
So, what are they saying?
35
0:2:58,305 --> 0:3:0,807
There's the-- the losses.
36
0:3:0,891 --> 0:3:5,20
And then there's the-- the pictures.
37
0:3:5,103 --> 0:3:6,730
-Pictures?
-People are upset about the pictures?
38
0:3:6,813 --> 0:3:8,23
-Pictures gave it life.
-I know.
39
0:3:8,106 --> 0:3:10,942
I know. It's silly, but it's--
40
0:3:11,26 --> 0:3:14,70
Some people think an-- an S-1
41
0:3:14,154 --> 0:3:16,865
shouldn't traditionally have
photo spreads--
42
0:3:16,948 --> 0:3:18,575
-That's why it's in there.
-Exactly!
43
0:3:18,658 --> 0:3:19,659
That's why we did it.
44
0:3:21,828 --> 0:3:22,746
Take it away.
45
0:3:23,330 --> 0:3:28,293
The real estate industry is currently
experiencing…
46
0:3:29,2 --> 0:3:32,839
The real estate industry
is currently experiencing a…
47
0:3:34,49 --> 0:3:36,468
paradigm shift from a…
48
0:3:37,135 --> 0:3:41,223
Paradigm shift from a…
49
0:3:44,601 --> 0:3:46,519
Fuck!
50
0:3:46,603 --> 0:3:50,523
Guys, it's a financial document
that no one reads.
51
0:3:50,607 --> 0:3:52,442
Well, they do read
The Wall Street Journal,
52
0:3:52,525 --> 0:3:53,818
and they're working on a story.
53
0:3:53,902 --> 0:3:56,696
-What do you mean?
-What story? There's no story.
54
0:3:56,780 --> 0:3:59,74
Yeah, I mean, late-night parties,
tequila shots,
55
0:3:59,157 --> 0:4:1,785
and a brick of weed in a cereal box
56
0:4:1,868 --> 0:4:3,286
-on an international flight.
-It's a cube.
57
0:4:3,370 --> 0:4:4,829
It was not-- It was a cube.
58
0:4:4,913 --> 0:4:8,166
Oh, my fucking God!
The Wall Street Journal?
59
0:4:8,250 --> 0:4:11,86
-Okay, okay, okay, okay.
-I'm out of here.
60
0:4:11,169 --> 0:4:14,297
-You can't let them run that story.
-Right.
61
0:4:14,881 --> 0:4:16,675
No, Damian,
you can't let them run that story!
62
0:4:16,757 --> 0:4:17,759
Sorry.
63
0:4:17,841 --> 0:4:19,469
You can't run the story.
64
0:4:20,512 --> 0:4:23,139
Because it's a non-story, Eliot.
65
0:4:23,223 --> 0:4:26,101
No, investors are not losing confidence
in the IPO.
66
0:4:26,851 --> 0:4:30,355
Investors are losing confidence
in the IPO.
67
0:4:32,315 --> 0:4:33,525
We need to postpone it.
68
0:4:34,25 --> 0:4:35,151
No, no, no.
69
0:4:35,235 --> 0:4:38,905
No, no, we're not going to postpone.
We're not postponing, Jamie.
70
0:4:39,781 --> 0:4:42,409
If we don't postpone,
we have to lower the valuation.
71
0:4:43,702 --> 0:4:44,703
By how much?
72
0:4:45,370 --> 0:4:46,454
Closer to 20.
73
0:4:46,538 --> 0:4:50,333
You want to lower the valuation
by $27 billion?
74
0:4:50,417 --> 0:4:53,962
Jamie, do you know what causes
investors to lose confidence?
75
0:4:54,45 --> 0:4:55,505
That. That does.
76
0:4:55,589 --> 0:4:58,550
It's a tough time to be a unicorn.
77
0:4:58,633 --> 0:5:0,594
There's a lot of scrutiny out there.
78
0:5:0,677 --> 0:5:4,139
Uber, Lyft, Peloton, Slack,
they're all underperforming post-IPO.
79
0:5:4,222 --> 0:5:5,640
All of them.
80
0:5:6,474 --> 0:5:9,436
The "unicorn stampede."
It has become a bloodbath.
81
0:5:9,519 --> 0:5:14,65
And so, to kind of illustrate this point,
we recently saw, just last week
82
0:5:14,149 --> 0:5:16,151
an issue with WeWork,
83
0:5:16,234 --> 0:5:19,863
where WeWork was making this
transition from the private markets,
84
0:5:19,946 --> 0:5:23,283
trying to get ready for an IPO
to the public market,
85
0:5:23,366 --> 0:5:28,496
and they had raised
on a previous valuation of $47 billion.
86
0:5:28,580 --> 0:5:33,209
They just decided overnight,
"Just kidding, we're worth 20 billion."
87
0:5:33,293 --> 0:5:35,921
And so, if you invested in WeWork,
88
0:5:36,4 --> 0:5:37,923
thinking that it had a valuation
of 47 billion…
89
0:5:38,6 --> 0:5:39,299
Your time has expired.
90
0:5:39,382 --> 0:5:40,926
…you're getting fleeced.
91
0:5:42,636 --> 0:5:44,387
I donated to her campaign.
92
0:5:44,471 --> 0:5:47,98
Fuck her. She's a fucking socialist.
93
0:5:47,182 --> 0:5:49,935
She is misrepresenting
the private markets.
94
0:5:50,18 --> 0:5:52,103
You're dealing
with very sophisticated investors.
95
0:5:52,187 --> 0:5:55,315
Could you stop sending me
the daily press briefings?
96
0:5:55,398 --> 0:5:57,442
They're just--
All of the mentions are bad,
97
0:5:57,525 --> 0:6:0,695
and I'm starting
to let negative thoughts in and…
98
0:6:2,948 --> 0:6:3,949
Let's go.
99
0:6:4,532 --> 0:6:6,451
Why do they hate us so much?
100
0:6:8,411 --> 0:6:10,622
All we wanted to do was save the world.
101
0:6:11,373 --> 0:6:13,208
We got this. Damian!
102
0:6:13,291 --> 0:6:15,544
We got it. We got it, Damian! Got it.
103
0:6:15,627 --> 0:6:19,130
There's a lot of noise back there.
I think we need to simmer it down.
104
0:6:19,214 --> 0:6:20,715
Calm it down. Find your spot.
105
0:6:20,799 --> 0:6:23,468
-Fungible. Ible…
-Okay. It's so good. It's so good.
106
0:6:23,552 --> 0:6:25,345
-Is it?
-That is such a hard line.
107
0:6:25,428 --> 0:6:28,848
Commodities and…
You're getting a little tight in here.
108
0:6:28,932 --> 0:6:30,16
So why don't we just--
109
0:6:32,852 --> 0:6:36,147
Say this with me. A proper pot of coffee
in a proper coffee pot.
110
0:6:36,231 --> 0:6:39,734
A proper cot of-- A proper
pot of coffee in a p--
111
0:6:39,818 --> 0:6:41,278
-Yes.
-A proper pot of coffee
112
0:6:41,361 --> 0:6:42,862
in a proper coffee pot.
113
0:6:42,946 --> 0:6:45,365
A proper coppet potty
in a proper coppy pot.
114
0:6:45,448 --> 0:6:46,324
-I got it.
-Okay. Great.
115
0:6:46,408 --> 0:6:48,577
-A proper copper potty--
-Esther.
116
0:6:49,77 --> 0:6:51,329
Proper pot of coffee
in a proper coffee pot.
117
0:6:51,997 --> 0:6:53,456
Let it loose. And…
118
0:6:53,540 --> 0:6:54,541
Action.
119
0:6:54,624 --> 0:6:56,626
It's bad, Adam. It's bad.
120
0:6:56,710 --> 0:7:0,5
It's a bit of bad press over
a silly financial document.
121
0:7:0,88 --> 0:7:1,89
It will blow over.
122
0:7:1,172 --> 0:7:3,300
Listen, you had a hell of an idea
for a business,
123
0:7:3,383 --> 0:7:7,596
you built it into something that
far exceeded my wildest expectations,
124
0:7:7,679 --> 0:7:11,725
and now you're gonna fuck it all up
over all this nonsense?
125
0:7:12,517 --> 0:7:14,477
What are you talking about
"nonsense," Bruce?
126
0:7:14,561 --> 0:7:16,563
-Nonsense?
-The succession plan.
127
0:7:16,646 --> 0:7:18,982
What about the succession plan?
128
0:7:19,65 --> 0:7:20,775
Rebekah gets to choose your successor?
129
0:7:20,859 --> 0:7:24,195
This is about to be a public company.
Not a monarchy.
130
0:7:24,279 --> 0:7:27,824
But it is.
It is like a monarchy, okay.
131
0:7:27,908 --> 0:7:31,411
My family is the moral compass
of this company.
132
0:7:31,494 --> 0:7:35,749
See? You have to stop
saying things like that.
133
0:7:35,832 --> 0:7:39,794
I am now begging you. Please, please.
134
0:7:42,464 --> 0:7:44,591
What if I give you something else?
Give me 24 hours.
135
0:7:44,674 --> 0:7:47,719
Benchmark invested 16.5 million in WeWork,
136
0:7:47,802 --> 0:7:50,764
and you've already cashed out
over 300 million worth of shares.
137
0:7:50,847 --> 0:7:53,725
You've made 20 times your investment,
and, and,
138
0:7:53,808 --> 0:7:55,936
you'll make another billion from the IPO.
139
0:7:56,19 --> 0:8:0,106
So don't talk to me about nonsense, Bruce.
My nonsense has made you a fortune.
140
0:8:0,190 --> 0:8:3,401
We just need to get in front
of the investors.
141
0:8:3,902 --> 0:8:5,570
The road show, it starts next week.
142
0:8:5,654 --> 0:8:8,823
And for the ones who can't meet me
in person, we're making a video.
143
0:8:8,907 --> 0:8:12,327
We're bringing in the crew from Hollywood.
We've spared no expense.
144
0:8:12,410 --> 0:8:16,581
And trust me when I say this, trust me,
I will bring my A-game.
145
0:8:20,1 --> 0:8:21,2
Okay.
146
0:8:25,257 --> 0:8:26,841
Okay. Okay.
147
0:8:28,93 --> 0:8:29,135
This is it.
148
0:8:29,219 --> 0:8:32,429
I am committed to building not just
a good business,
149
0:8:32,514 --> 0:8:34,432
-but a great company.
-What?
150
0:8:34,515 --> 0:8:36,393
-And I promise, in my decisions…
-They're running it.
151
0:8:36,476 --> 0:8:38,645
-…I will remain loyal to whatever is--
-Shit.
152
0:8:39,729 --> 0:8:40,647
Again.
153
0:8:40,730 --> 0:8:41,898
You got it.
154
0:8:42,691 --> 0:8:46,486
I am committed to building not just
a good business, but a great company.
155
0:8:46,570 --> 0:8:47,571
And I promise
156
0:8:47,654 --> 0:8:50,198
that in my decisions, I will remain loyal
157
0:8:50,282 --> 0:8:53,994
to whatever is best in the long term
for the greater We.
158
0:8:55,120 --> 0:8:57,581
Our employees, our members, our partners,
159
0:8:57,664 --> 0:9:2,419
our investors
and, most importantly, our planet.
160
0:9:2,919 --> 0:9:8,91
So come with me,
and let's build the future together.
161
0:9:8,174 --> 0:9:9,342
Good.
162
0:9:10,719 --> 0:9:13,680
-Good? Good? Great?
-Yeah, great actually.
163
0:9:13,763 --> 0:9:14,931
-Great.
-I heard a "great."
164
0:9:15,15 --> 0:9:16,266
-That was great.
-Esther?
165
0:9:16,349 --> 0:9:18,768
-It was great. You did it. You did it.
-I heard a "great."
166
0:9:18,852 --> 0:9:21,229
-You did it. You manifested it.
-Did you have any doubt?
167
0:9:21,313 --> 0:9:23,398
-No, didn't have any doubt.
-No, no, you had no doubt.
168
0:9:23,481 --> 0:9:24,691
-Nothing.
-Okay.
169
0:9:24,774 --> 0:9:25,984
You manifested it.
170
0:9:26,610 --> 0:9:28,69
Damian, how was it?
171
0:9:29,613 --> 0:9:32,198
Damian, my PR guru, how was it? Okay?
172
0:9:32,908 --> 0:9:34,326
I think we're finished.
173
0:9:35,285 --> 0:9:39,539
-Hey, yes!
-Okay.
174
0:9:39,623 --> 0:9:42,292
-Are you gonna tell them?
-Fuck no.
175
0:9:42,375 --> 0:9:43,960
-Thank you all…
-Where are you going?
176
0:9:44,44 --> 0:9:46,87
Back to the style section.
177
0:9:55,722 --> 0:9:58,642
He's a goddamn punch line.
"Neumann is known for making claims
178
0:9:58,725 --> 0:10:1,102
such as becoming the world's
first trillionaire,
179
0:10:1,186 --> 0:10:4,147
becoming president of the world,
and living forever."
180
0:10:4,231 --> 0:10:6,233
Sounds like a maniac.
181
0:10:6,316 --> 0:10:7,317
It's humiliating.
182
0:10:7,400 --> 0:10:8,860
He will never survive this.
183
0:10:8,944 --> 0:10:10,779
Survive it? No, he's dead already.
184
0:10:10,862 --> 0:10:15,200
No, I am talking about us.
This is humiliating for us.
185
0:10:15,283 --> 0:10:19,496
Bruce, he's gotta go. Partying has
long been a feature of his work life…
186
0:10:19,579 --> 0:10:20,997
…maniac.
187
0:10:21,81 --> 0:10:22,582
The guy's a nut job…
188
0:10:29,256 --> 0:10:32,968
All those in favor,
please signify by saying, "Aye."
189
0:10:33,51 --> 0:10:34,52
Aye.
190
0:10:40,16 --> 0:10:42,561
Call his office and get him down here.
191
0:10:42,644 --> 0:10:44,229
Yes, I understand it's urgent.
192
0:10:53,113 --> 0:10:54,447
Good morning!
193
0:11:21,308 --> 0:11:22,559
Okay.
194
0:11:36,281 --> 0:11:38,617
'Cause we are going to IPO in two weeks.
195
0:11:39,618 --> 0:11:42,662
Adam, an IPO is out of the question.
196
0:11:43,330 --> 0:11:44,873
I don't accept that.
197
0:11:44,956 --> 0:11:46,583
-Adam.
-I don't accept it.
198
0:11:46,666 --> 0:11:48,293
-And furthermore…
-Adam. Adam.
199
0:11:48,376 --> 0:11:49,878
…I don't believe
you have the faith in me--
200
0:11:49,961 --> 0:11:51,129
Adam.
201
0:11:52,130 --> 0:11:53,965
The board voted this morning.
202
0:11:55,258 --> 0:11:56,551
We want you out.
203
0:11:58,970 --> 0:12:0,13
Call the lawyers.
204
0:12:0,96 --> 0:12:1,848
Yeah. Which one?
205
0:12:1,932 --> 0:12:3,16
All of them.
206
0:12:14,778 --> 0:12:15,695
Oh, thank you.
207
0:12:20,33 --> 0:12:21,910
Well,
208
0:12:21,993 --> 0:12:25,580
I have no idea how you got your investors
to agree to this,
209
0:12:25,664 --> 0:12:31,711
but your "supervoting" shares
give you 20 votes on each share.
210
0:12:32,295 --> 0:12:36,341
You basically control 65% of the vote
on any corporate matter.
211
0:12:36,424 --> 0:12:40,887
So you're right, they can't fire you.
212
0:12:40,971 --> 0:12:42,556
-Good.
-Great.
213
0:12:42,639 --> 0:12:43,723
Now we fire them.
214
0:12:45,809 --> 0:12:46,810
Which ones?
215
0:12:47,394 --> 0:12:49,938
Every single person on the board.
216
0:12:53,692 --> 0:12:55,610
Robb, why don't you take this?
217
0:13:1,408 --> 0:13:4,619
Legally, yes, you could fire them.
218
0:13:4,703 --> 0:13:8,623
But you do need a board of directors.
219
0:13:9,708 --> 0:13:10,709
Why?
220
0:13:10,792 --> 0:13:12,460
It's required by state law.
221
0:13:14,629 --> 0:13:16,6
The question is…
222
0:13:18,174 --> 0:13:19,968
can we change the law?
223
0:13:24,639 --> 0:13:26,766
That might take a while.
224
0:13:30,395 --> 0:13:31,396
Okay--
225
0:13:32,22 --> 0:13:35,191
We can appoint anyone
we want to the board, correct?
226
0:13:35,775 --> 0:13:38,28
Who we like, who we trust, who we can--
227
0:13:38,111 --> 0:13:41,114
-…we feel has the right energy.
-Yes. Yes, yes.
228
0:13:42,115 --> 0:13:43,909
Jen, Matthew?
229
0:13:44,868 --> 0:13:47,329
Birdie. Phil.
230
0:13:47,412 --> 0:13:48,538
-Unfortunately…
-Yes.
231
0:13:48,622 --> 0:13:52,417
…the NYSE and NASDAQ exchanges
require them to be independent.
232
0:13:54,294 --> 0:13:58,215
Legally, the board is meant to provide
experience and advice.
233
0:13:58,298 --> 0:13:59,382
God.
234
0:14:0,508 --> 0:14:4,12
Okay, so what about
235
0:14:5,138 --> 0:14:6,181
Elon?
236
0:14:7,98 --> 0:14:8,99
Well--
237
0:14:8,183 --> 0:14:9,643
Elon.
238
0:14:9,726 --> 0:14:13,647
Elon's a peer, right? So he can't
tell you anything you don't already know.
239
0:14:13,730 --> 0:14:15,106
-I think--
-True.
240
0:14:15,190 --> 0:14:18,526
I think Warren. Or Bill.
241
0:14:18,610 --> 0:14:19,653
Obama.
242
0:14:20,612 --> 0:14:22,989
Barack's great,
but he's not a businessman.
243
0:14:23,73 --> 0:14:26,952
If you try to fire the board,
244
0:14:27,35 --> 0:14:29,79
you're looking at a lengthy legal fight.
245
0:14:29,162 --> 0:14:34,0
And based on what you've told us,
that's time you don't have.
246
0:14:34,84 --> 0:14:36,962
Look, you don't have a legal problem.
247
0:14:38,4 --> 0:14:39,381
You have an image problem.
248
0:14:40,131 --> 0:14:45,95
The public markets want a steady hand
at the wheel.
249
0:14:46,846 --> 0:14:48,139
Not a rock star.
250
0:14:49,474 --> 0:14:51,601
Okay, you're talking about gravitas.
251
0:14:51,685 --> 0:14:52,811
-Exactly.
-Okay.
252
0:14:52,894 --> 0:14:56,273
Show them
that you can run a public company.
253
0:14:58,984 --> 0:15:1,861
Gravitas. Gravitas.
254
0:15:1,945 --> 0:15:2,946
Perfect.
255
0:15:6,116 --> 0:15:7,742
Where's Adam?
256
0:15:8,368 --> 0:15:9,953
The natives are getting restless.
257
0:15:10,36 --> 0:15:11,871
Dude, what-- Nobody uses
that expression anymore.
258
0:15:11,955 --> 0:15:14,499
Well, we need to say something to them.
259
0:15:17,794 --> 0:15:20,547
-Me?
-You're the co-founder of the company.
260
0:15:20,630 --> 0:15:21,882
Yeah, dude, you got this.
261
0:15:21,965 --> 0:15:23,967
-You're gonna be great.
-They're scared. Speak to that fear.
262
0:15:24,50 --> 0:15:25,802
-Okay.
-They know your face.
263
0:15:25,886 --> 0:15:27,637
-Use your height.
-Tell them everything's cool.
264
0:15:27,721 --> 0:15:29,556
-Everything's gonna be taken care of.
-Everything's okay.
265
0:15:29,639 --> 0:15:32,309
-Easy.
-Loose. Loose, loose, loose.
266
0:15:32,392 --> 0:15:33,435
It's okay.
267
0:15:34,895 --> 0:15:36,605
Everyone.
268
0:15:37,647 --> 0:15:39,566
Excuse me, everyone.
269
0:15:40,525 --> 0:15:41,818
Excuse me, everyone!
270
0:15:45,530 --> 0:15:46,656
Hey--
271
0:15:48,533 --> 0:15:49,784
Excuse me, everyone.
272
0:15:50,327 --> 0:15:52,162
Please, guys.
273
0:15:53,580 --> 0:15:55,332
Guys-- Sorry.
274
0:15:55,415 --> 0:15:57,375
Hey-- Hi, everyone.
275
0:15:59,961 --> 0:16:1,87
Happy Monday.
276
0:16:1,171 --> 0:16:6,9
Good morning. TGIM, right?
277
0:16:6,801 --> 0:16:8,136
Is Adam fired?
278
0:16:9,95 --> 0:16:10,138
What? No.
279
0:16:11,14 --> 0:16:13,767
Everything--
Everything's under control.
280
0:16:13,850 --> 0:16:15,268
What about the IPO?
281
0:16:15,352 --> 0:16:16,895
What happens with our stock options?
282
0:16:16,978 --> 0:16:18,396
Are we getting fired?
283
0:16:18,480 --> 0:16:21,149
No, no one is getting fired yet.
284
0:16:21,233 --> 0:16:23,26
-Yet?
-What does that mean?
285
0:16:23,693 --> 0:16:26,988
No. Guys, listen.
Hey, hey, hey, everyone.
286
0:16:28,323 --> 0:16:32,744
Look, I know you're all looking
for a little reassurance right now.
287
0:16:33,286 --> 0:16:36,122
And you deserve that. So…
288
0:16:37,707 --> 0:16:39,709
There's a few things I can say.
289
0:16:39,793 --> 0:16:43,46
It's every--
290
0:16:44,673 --> 0:16:46,341
Every little thing…
291
0:16:47,634 --> 0:16:51,805
Every little thing
Is gonna be all right
292
0:16:53,932 --> 0:16:56,142
I said don't worry
293
0:16:57,519 --> 0:16:58,937
About a thing
294
0:17:1,273 --> 0:17:5,193
'Cause every little thing
Is gonna be all right
295
0:17:6,611 --> 0:17:8,71
Said don't worry--
296
0:17:8,154 --> 0:17:10,574
Oh, thank God. Adam's here.
297
0:17:16,371 --> 0:17:17,372
Adam, everyone.
298
0:17:22,127 --> 0:17:23,128
Colleagues,
299
0:17:24,713 --> 0:17:28,300
friends and family.
300
0:17:30,176 --> 0:17:32,220
This is a pivotal moment.
301
0:17:33,221 --> 0:17:37,601
And I am so proud, so very grateful
to have you all gathered here today.
302
0:17:43,857 --> 0:17:45,942
There's a lot of noise out there.
303
0:17:47,861 --> 0:17:51,406
A lot of gossip, a lot of talk.
304
0:17:52,365 --> 0:17:53,491
About me.
305
0:17:55,785 --> 0:17:56,786
About us.
306
0:17:58,872 --> 0:18:3,335
Because that is what people do
when they're afraid.
307
0:18:4,85 --> 0:18:6,755
Do you understand what we have all done?
308
0:18:7,964 --> 0:18:10,800
Do you understand? We--
309
0:18:10,884 --> 0:18:13,94
We poked the bear.
310
0:18:13,178 --> 0:18:14,888
We poked that bear.
311
0:18:14,971 --> 0:18:18,808
We disrupted a trillion-dollar industry.
312
0:18:18,892 --> 0:18:23,688
And we will emerge stronger
and more fearless and more revolutionary
313
0:18:23,772 --> 0:18:25,482
than ever before!
314
0:18:26,358 --> 0:18:27,567
Yes!
315
0:18:27,651 --> 0:18:30,570
More dedicated, and even more committed.
316
0:18:31,196 --> 0:18:35,575
Committed to our mission
to elevate the world's consciousness!
317
0:18:36,243 --> 0:18:37,244
Thank you, Rivka.
318
0:18:37,327 --> 0:18:42,916
And I, I will never not be
the CEO of WeWork!
319
0:18:48,755 --> 0:18:50,6
Yeah…
320
0:18:51,758 --> 0:18:54,302
-When I say "We," you say…
-Work.
321
0:18:54,386 --> 0:18:55,554
-We!
-Work.
322
0:18:55,637 --> 0:18:57,55
Step down.
323
0:19:0,600 --> 0:19:1,726
Who said that?
324
0:19:5,480 --> 0:19:6,481
Who was it?
325
0:19:9,359 --> 0:19:10,485
How dare you?
326
0:19:16,32 --> 0:19:17,576
It's okay. It's okay.
327
0:19:23,748 --> 0:19:24,874
You've lost them.
328
0:19:24,958 --> 0:19:28,295
Your interests and the interests
of your employees have diverged.
329
0:19:28,378 --> 0:19:31,840
No, I don't believe that. I-I just--
They're-- They're just scared.
330
0:19:31,923 --> 0:19:34,551
No. They're angry.
331
0:19:35,468 --> 0:19:40,515
They've spent two years, five years,
a decade toiling away for low wages,
332
0:19:40,599 --> 0:19:42,767
for an IPO payday that now may never come.
333
0:19:42,851 --> 0:19:44,728
-No. It's coming. Coming.
-I mean--
334
0:19:44,811 --> 0:19:46,730
-They will feel used…
-It's coming.
335
0:19:46,813 --> 0:19:48,773
…and they will blame you.
336
0:19:48,857 --> 0:19:51,651
Where do you think The Wall Street
Journal got its information?
337
0:19:52,444 --> 0:19:54,529
The unnamed sources?
338
0:19:56,239 --> 0:19:57,324
There they are.
339
0:19:58,783 --> 0:20:0,35
You're at war.
340
0:20:1,36 --> 0:20:4,372
It'll be fought on multiple fronts.
In the boardroom, in the press.
341
0:20:4,456 --> 0:20:7,584
Even here in the halls
of your own company.
342
0:20:8,168 --> 0:20:10,337
Trust no one.
343
0:20:10,420 --> 0:20:13,924
Sorry, are we in a John Grisham novel?
344
0:20:14,7 --> 0:20:17,427
You're paying me to be dramatic.
That's why it's called crisis PR.
345
0:20:18,178 --> 0:20:20,13
You have to understand, Rebekah,
346
0:20:20,96 --> 0:20:22,849
you and Adam, you are not people.
347
0:20:23,808 --> 0:20:26,811
-We're not people?
-No. You're products.
348
0:20:26,895 --> 0:20:30,232
The media sold you to the public once
as unicorns,
349
0:20:30,774 --> 0:20:32,567
now they'll sell you again as villains.
350
0:20:32,651 --> 0:20:36,154
Okay, so obviously we need to reframe it.
351
0:20:36,238 --> 0:20:39,532
We need to take control of it.
So why don't you put us on CNBC?
352
0:20:39,616 --> 0:20:40,617
-Good idea.
-No.
353
0:20:40,700 --> 0:20:42,202
-I think it's the--
-No, no.
354
0:20:42,285 --> 0:20:45,872
They're making this into a circus.
Let's not help them.
355
0:20:46,873 --> 0:20:48,500
Stay in the foxhole.
356
0:20:49,584 --> 0:20:51,962
I'll say it again, we are at war.
357
0:20:52,504 --> 0:20:55,298
And these are your foot soldiers.
358
0:20:56,49 --> 0:20:58,552
God help the enemy,
'cause they're a bunch of freaks.
359
0:20:59,52 --> 0:21:1,638
They don't look like much,
but when I pump them full of Adderall
360
0:21:1,721 --> 0:21:4,516
and turn these sickos loose, watch out.
361
0:21:6,268 --> 0:21:8,812
You should both have your offices
swept for bugs.
362
0:21:9,354 --> 0:21:10,480
Bugs?
363
0:21:11,314 --> 0:21:15,151
We must be vigilant.
Methodical. Strategic.
364
0:21:15,986 --> 0:21:18,280
No emails, no texts,
365
0:21:18,863 --> 0:21:20,740
no phone calls that might be overheard.
366
0:21:20,824 --> 0:21:23,952
No false moves. Got it?
367
0:21:26,496 --> 0:21:27,539
Adam?
368
0:21:34,87 --> 0:21:36,381
You want war? I'll give you war.
369
0:21:36,464 --> 0:21:39,50
Okay. I'll give you war!
370
0:21:43,930 --> 0:21:45,599
We're going to war!
371
0:21:45,682 --> 0:21:47,58
To war, you understand?
372
0:21:47,142 --> 0:21:47,976
-Phil.
-Yeah?
373
0:21:48,59 --> 0:21:49,978
-Pack it up. Pack it all up.
-Okay. I'll go--
374
0:21:50,61 --> 0:21:52,272
Don't forget the whiteboard, understand?
Don't forget it.
375
0:21:52,355 --> 0:21:54,482
-Okay.
-Adam. Adam!
376
0:21:54,566 --> 0:21:56,192
Go, go.
377
0:21:56,860 --> 0:21:58,904
Coming through. Push, Phil, push.
378
0:21:58,987 --> 0:22:0,697
-Pushing.
-Push.
379
0:22:1,239 --> 0:22:3,867
-Out the way.
-Adam. Adam.
380
0:22:4,993 --> 0:22:6,745
This is proprietary,
you understand?
381
0:22:6,828 --> 0:22:9,80
-If I see this anywhere, anywhere…
-Let's catch the light.
382
0:22:9,164 --> 0:22:11,291
…I'll be forced to take legal action,
you understand? Phil.
383
0:22:11,374 --> 0:22:13,919
-Get his picture. Take his information.
-Whoa, whoa-- No, fuck off.
384
0:22:14,2 --> 0:22:15,86
Get his picture.
385
0:22:15,170 --> 0:22:17,380
-Rivka, cover the board, cover the board.
-I'm just trying to move--
386
0:22:17,464 --> 0:22:19,341
-Cover the board.
-I'm covering the board.
387
0:22:19,424 --> 0:22:22,219
Let's just get it to the house, okay?
Okay. Do you have it?
388
0:22:22,302 --> 0:22:23,428
-Yeah.
-We got it, we got it.
389
0:22:23,511 --> 0:22:25,764
-Okay, here we go.
-Okay.
390
0:22:25,847 --> 0:22:26,848
Okay.
391
0:22:27,849 --> 0:22:28,850
It's okay--
392
0:22:28,934 --> 0:22:31,728
Please, please don't lean
the whiteboards against the wall.
393
0:22:31,811 --> 0:22:34,814
I'm gonna need to ask everyone
to wear booties.
394
0:22:34,898 --> 0:22:36,524
Ingrid? Ingrid.
395
0:22:36,608 --> 0:22:38,818
I think we might need to send
the kids to the Hamptons.
396
0:22:38,902 --> 0:22:42,739
All right, all right. Mommy loves you.
Claudia, Claudia, did you get the booties?
397
0:22:42,822 --> 0:22:46,743
Hello? Yeah, no, I'm sorry,
we just can't comment.
398
0:22:47,827 --> 0:22:49,829
Let me look into that
and circle back to you.
399
0:22:49,913 --> 0:22:53,41
No, no, no.
400
0:22:53,124 --> 0:22:57,170
-Not "circle back." You understand?
-This couch is hand-loomed linen,
401
0:22:57,254 --> 0:22:59,422
so I'm gonna need to put towels under you.
402
0:22:59,506 --> 0:23:0,674
Oh, my God.
403
0:23:1,383 --> 0:23:3,176
-Angela. Can you get the towels?
-Hello?
404
0:23:3,260 --> 0:23:5,887
No, we're not commenting
on that at this time.
405
0:23:5,971 --> 0:23:7,931
Nope, not commenting. No comment.
406
0:23:8,14 --> 0:23:10,517
I'm not gonna comment at this time.
407
0:23:11,226 --> 0:23:13,19
Comment. Please, please, comment.
408
0:23:13,103 --> 0:23:16,856
Comment. Comment. Just dig in. Comment.
409
0:23:16,940 --> 0:23:19,359
This, thi-- This is war. This?
410
0:23:19,985 --> 0:23:22,946
My seven-year-old could answer
the phones and say, "no comment"
411
0:23:23,29 --> 0:23:25,323
with more enthusiasm than this.
412
0:23:25,407 --> 0:23:26,408
Please!
413
0:23:26,491 --> 0:23:29,327
Adam, be respectful.
I'm s-- I'm just gonna…
414
0:23:29,411 --> 0:23:30,745
They're the best in the business.
415
0:23:30,829 --> 0:23:34,583
The best-- Well, must not be a very
competitive industry, I have to say.
416
0:23:34,666 --> 0:23:36,626
You could try again in a week.
417
0:23:37,210 --> 0:23:39,296
Again, no comment.
418
0:23:40,589 --> 0:23:42,90
I really have no--
419
0:23:42,173 --> 0:23:43,508
Pardon me.
420
0:23:44,634 --> 0:23:46,803
-Pardon me. Pardon.
-Let me call you back.
421
0:23:47,762 --> 0:23:50,15
-What is your name?
-Chris.
422
0:23:50,98 --> 0:23:53,685
Chris, no more "no comment,"
you understand?
423
0:23:53,768 --> 0:23:54,978
No more "no comment."
424
0:23:55,61 --> 0:23:57,397
I'm not paying you guys
a million dollars an hour
425
0:23:57,480 --> 0:23:59,691
or whatever it is for "no comment."
426
0:24:0,859 --> 0:24:6,823
If someone calls and asks about tequila,
I want you to ask them,
427
0:24:6,907 --> 0:24:9,784
"You ever go to an office party
or go out for work drinks?
428
0:24:9,868 --> 0:24:11,870
Ever heard of a three-martini lunch?"
429
0:24:11,953 --> 0:24:15,749
Booze has always been a part of business.
You understand?
430
0:24:15,832 --> 0:24:18,43
-You agree. You agree. Thank you.
-Adam.
431
0:24:18,126 --> 0:24:19,294
Thank you very much. No.
432
0:24:19,377 --> 0:24:21,254
-Let's take a break. Honey, let's--
-One moment.
433
0:24:21,338 --> 0:24:25,175
I'm just making a point.
Making a point. Please.
434
0:24:25,258 --> 0:24:30,55
And if they happen to mention
the-the-the trillionaire crap, okay?
435
0:24:30,138 --> 0:24:33,16
I want you to say to them,
"Well, pardon me,
436
0:24:33,99 --> 0:24:35,852
but what is the headline here?
437
0:24:36,686 --> 0:24:39,856
Immigrant entrepreneur
dares to dream too big?"
438
0:24:40,857 --> 0:24:45,70
And if-- if they dare to mention my wife,
439
0:24:46,154 --> 0:24:49,616
you say nothing,
and you put me on the phone.
440
0:24:49,699 --> 0:24:52,77
-You understand? Put me on the phone.
-Adam. It's fine.
441
0:24:52,160 --> 0:24:54,454
And then I'll give a comment.
442
0:24:54,537 --> 0:24:56,581
You're not paying us to fight back.
443
0:24:56,665 --> 0:24:58,375
Then what am I paying you for?
444
0:24:58,458 --> 0:25:0,710
-To deflect. To defuse.
-Please, to-- and?
445
0:25:0,794 --> 0:25:3,255
-Thank you.
-To grind them down with non-answers.
446
0:25:3,338 --> 0:25:4,923
-To be boring.
-It's okay, Adam.
447
0:25:5,6 --> 0:25:8,635
Well, they are definitely
the best in the business at that.
448
0:25:8,718 --> 0:25:11,596
-Thank you very much.
-You are paying us to stop the bleeding.
449
0:25:11,680 --> 0:25:13,598
-We know. Thank you.
-So let us do our jobs.
450
0:25:13,682 --> 0:25:15,809
You have made your point.
We are very grateful.
451
0:25:17,352 --> 0:25:19,771
-I need you to center yourself.
-No. It's--
452
0:25:19,854 --> 0:25:21,940
-No. I need you to ce-- Adam.
-It's not the time. Not--
453
0:25:22,23 --> 0:25:24,25
You cannot protect this family
if you are not centered.
454
0:25:24,526 --> 0:25:25,902
Close your eyes.
455
0:25:30,198 --> 0:25:31,283
Now breathe in.
456
0:25:33,201 --> 0:25:34,202
And out.
457
0:25:36,496 --> 0:25:37,872
Feel it rise.
458
0:25:39,124 --> 0:25:41,418
Come out through the top of your head.
459
0:25:42,544 --> 0:25:44,379
And then imagine a golden light.
460
0:25:50,552 --> 0:25:52,345
Do you feel better?
461
0:25:54,139 --> 0:25:55,140
Yes?
462
0:25:56,99 --> 0:25:58,435
Okay. Look at me.
463
0:25:59,519 --> 0:26:1,438
Small men proceed from fear.
464
0:26:2,63 --> 0:26:3,815
We are not small.
465
0:26:4,399 --> 0:26:7,193
I want these people and their negativity
out of my home.
466
0:26:7,277 --> 0:26:10,363
They are ruining my floors. All right?
467
0:26:12,616 --> 0:26:15,535
Talk to Bruce. Tell him you can fix this.
468
0:26:15,619 --> 0:26:17,579
He wants to believe in you. He always has.
469
0:26:20,999 --> 0:26:22,208
Yes.
470
0:26:23,1 --> 0:26:24,753
-Okay.
-Okay.
471
0:26:24,836 --> 0:26:27,380
-Talking to Bruce.
-Yes. Good.
472
0:26:29,883 --> 0:26:31,426
-Calling Bruce.
-Okay.
473
0:26:35,513 --> 0:26:36,973
Thank you for picking up.
474
0:26:39,309 --> 0:26:40,560
I'm coming to see you.
475
0:26:41,895 --> 0:26:43,271
Now.
476
0:26:46,24 --> 0:26:49,236
Perfect. Keep that tone.
Keep that intention.
477
0:26:50,862 --> 0:26:52,239
You can manifest this.
478
0:27:9,589 --> 0:27:10,799
Bruce.
479
0:27:10,882 --> 0:27:11,883
Adam.
480
0:27:14,52 --> 0:27:15,220
Matthew.
481
0:27:16,429 --> 0:27:17,514
And Jacob.
482
0:27:18,56 --> 0:27:22,602
They reached out to me. They had a few
things they wanted to get off their chest.
483
0:27:22,686 --> 0:27:26,439
I see, I see.
What is the expression?
484
0:27:26,940 --> 0:27:30,485
Like rats abandoning a sinking ship.
485
0:27:31,194 --> 0:27:33,863
Unfortunately, our ship isn't sinking.
486
0:27:33,947 --> 0:27:36,283
But it's good to know who the rats are.
487
0:27:36,366 --> 0:27:38,618
Well, we just want what's best
for the company.
488
0:27:38,702 --> 0:27:42,247
What is best for the company is me as CEO.
489
0:27:42,330 --> 0:27:45,792
-Adam, I don't--
-Always has been, always will be.
490
0:27:45,875 --> 0:27:49,796
Please, you're going to listen
to these two geniuses?
491
0:27:49,880 --> 0:27:51,965
One walks around like a mermaid
492
0:27:52,48 --> 0:27:54,509
and the other has "cock"
written on his forehead.
493
0:27:54,593 --> 0:28:0,682
Please, let the children go home,
and the adults can have a conversation.
494
0:28:0,765 --> 0:28:2,225
-No, let them go.
-No, Adam,
495
0:28:2,309 --> 0:28:4,686
I really don't see any reason
for them to leave.
496
0:28:4,769 --> 0:28:8,315
Fine. Learn something.
Grab a pen. Take some notes.
497
0:28:8,940 --> 0:28:11,26
Take some notes.
I'm going to teach you something.
498
0:28:11,526 --> 0:28:12,569
Okay.
499
0:28:13,653 --> 0:28:14,779
So listen to me.
500
0:28:14,863 --> 0:28:18,533
This is what I'm willing to do to counter
the ridiculous narrative out there.
501
0:28:18,617 --> 0:28:23,246
First, I'm reducing my voting control
from 20 votes per share to 10.
502
0:28:23,830 --> 0:28:27,334
Second, I'm appointing a lead
independent director to the board.
503
0:28:27,417 --> 0:28:28,710
I thought you'd like that.
504
0:28:29,377 --> 0:28:33,256
Third, Rebekah will no longer choose
my successor.
505
0:28:33,340 --> 0:28:38,303
And finally, finally, even though
the board never objected
506
0:28:38,386 --> 0:28:42,265
and everything was entirely
aboveboard, as you know,
507
0:28:42,349 --> 0:28:44,517
I'll be returning the 5.9 million
508
0:28:44,601 --> 0:28:47,270
that the company paid me
for the We trademark.
509
0:28:48,813 --> 0:28:50,857
So you can see I'm giving here, Bruce.
510
0:28:50,941 --> 0:28:54,861
I'm giving.
I'm giving, and I'm ready to receive.
511
0:28:57,572 --> 0:28:59,199
You bet on me once.
512
0:29:0,33 --> 0:29:1,910
Believe in me again.
513
0:29:1,993 --> 0:29:4,329
You understand? Believe in me.
514
0:29:8,541 --> 0:29:9,960
You're toxic.
515
0:29:12,87 --> 0:29:14,589
You killed the company.
516
0:29:19,469 --> 0:29:20,720
You don't resign,
517
0:29:21,846 --> 0:29:23,682
I'll break your fucking arm.
518
0:29:27,269 --> 0:29:28,311
Bruce.
519
0:29:35,569 --> 0:29:37,445
I know, I know. But thanks.
520
0:29:38,196 --> 0:29:39,739
Sorry I'm late, gentlemen.
521
0:29:40,657 --> 0:29:43,285
I can see you've gotten started.
522
0:29:43,368 --> 0:29:46,830
No, no-- Jamie, I did everything
you asked me to.
523
0:29:46,913 --> 0:29:49,332
-I did it all.
-You did nothing I asked you.
524
0:29:49,416 --> 0:29:51,167
I did everything you asked me to.
525
0:29:51,251 --> 0:29:54,921
Adam, we cannot take the company
public with you as CEO.
526
0:29:55,5 --> 0:29:57,90
-No one will buy the stock. Adam.
-No, no.
527
0:29:59,551 --> 0:30:1,303
Bruce, I--
528
0:30:1,386 --> 0:30:4,389
No, no. I will never
not be the CEO of WeWork.
529
0:30:4,472 --> 0:30:5,640
Okay.
530
0:30:7,976 --> 0:30:9,227
Let's look ahead, shall we?
531
0:30:9,311 --> 0:30:11,354
Please. To the future.
532
0:30:11,438 --> 0:30:16,109
WeWork will run out of cash sooner
than you can imagine and go bankrupt.
533
0:30:17,27 --> 0:30:19,154
Your shares will go zero.
534
0:30:19,237 --> 0:30:23,700
The $380 million of personal loans that
you've taken out against those shares
535
0:30:23,783 --> 0:30:26,161
will be called in,
and you will be ruined, Adam.
536
0:30:27,120 --> 0:30:30,540
But, yeah, you'll still be CEO.
537
0:30:36,546 --> 0:30:39,341
We are not your enemies, Adam. You are.
538
0:30:41,718 --> 0:30:43,178
You are your own worst enemy.
539
0:30:53,230 --> 0:30:54,606
Shit.
540
0:30:58,985 --> 0:30:59,986
Well?
541
0:31:0,70 --> 0:31:1,196
Shit!
542
0:31:3,657 --> 0:31:5,533
It was an ambush.
543
0:31:5,617 --> 0:31:7,160
"Unnamed source says
544
0:31:7,244 --> 0:31:10,914
Bruce Dunlevie threatened to break
Adam Neumann's arm
545
0:31:11,414 --> 0:31:13,833
if he doesn't step down as CEO."
546
0:31:14,417 --> 0:31:16,294
Just posted on BuzzFeed.
547
0:31:16,878 --> 0:31:19,47
I told you to stay in the foxhole.
548
0:31:19,130 --> 0:31:20,549
Judas!
549
0:31:21,424 --> 0:31:23,552
Judas and Judas.
550
0:31:26,179 --> 0:31:28,98
Masa, I know it's late there.
551
0:31:28,181 --> 0:31:30,141
Thank you for picking up.
I'll keep it brief.
552
0:31:30,725 --> 0:31:32,727
-Adam.
-You have billions at stake,
553
0:31:32,811 --> 0:31:35,272
and I am the only one who can
safeguard that investment.
554
0:31:35,355 --> 0:31:40,26
You need me as CEO, and the company
must IPO or it'll run out of cash.
555
0:31:40,110 --> 0:31:42,362
There will be no IPO.
556
0:31:42,445 --> 0:31:44,489
If you go forward with it,
557
0:31:45,907 --> 0:31:49,661
you will embarrass yourself,
the company and me.
558
0:31:50,787 --> 0:31:51,788
Stand down.
559
0:31:51,871 --> 0:31:55,458
Masa, listen to me. With all due respect,
I'm not going to stand down.
560
0:31:56,42 --> 0:31:57,919
I will not let you proceed.
561
0:31:58,3 --> 0:31:59,796
What do you mean, "not let" me?
562
0:31:59,880 --> 0:32:2,132
I will not let you.
563
0:32:2,215 --> 0:32:6,678
I will use all my power, all my resources,
to block the IPO,
564
0:32:6,761 --> 0:32:9,306
and you will be left with nothing.
565
0:32:32,537 --> 0:32:35,40
But there's nothing to worry about.
Adam's all--
566
0:32:36,750 --> 0:32:39,127
You know I don't like it
when you talk about him like that.
567
0:32:40,503 --> 0:32:42,714
No, I don't. No, it's not ok--
568
0:32:42,797 --> 0:32:44,966
There is a spy outside the building!
569
0:32:45,50 --> 0:32:47,677
A spy. A spy!
570
0:32:47,761 --> 0:32:49,179
Daddy, let me call you back.
571
0:32:49,262 --> 0:32:51,556
Masa, Bruce, they've hired spies.
572
0:32:51,640 --> 0:32:52,849
Okay, honey.
573
0:32:53,642 --> 0:32:55,435
There's just not spies
outside the building.
574
0:32:55,518 --> 0:32:57,646
-No. There is a spy--
-There could be.
575
0:32:57,729 --> 0:33:0,315
-Ju--
-Yes, yes, yes.
576
0:33:0,398 --> 0:33:3,652
He looked ex-Mossad, right?
577
0:33:3,735 --> 0:33:4,736
Why?
578
0:33:4,819 --> 0:33:6,988
-We're in trouble.
-Why do you think he's a spy?
579
0:33:7,72 --> 0:33:9,908
Because he's standing
outside the building, very intently
580
0:33:9,991 --> 0:33:11,743
listening in my conversation,
eavesdropping.
581
0:33:11,826 --> 0:33:14,120
-Did he have a salt and pepper beard?
-Yes, he had that salt.
582
0:33:14,204 --> 0:33:16,915
And sort of, like, sad hound dog eyes?
583
0:33:16,998 --> 0:33:18,792
-Yes.
-Okay, my love.
584
0:33:18,875 --> 0:33:21,211
That is Mr. Fishman, in 4A.
585
0:33:21,294 --> 0:33:25,48
He smokes his horrible cigars
outside every single day.
586
0:33:25,131 --> 0:33:27,259
He's lived in the building for 23 years.
587
0:33:27,342 --> 0:33:30,470
He's not a spy.
It's all right. It's all right.
588
0:33:31,805 --> 0:33:33,848
Was this the call you were on?
589
0:33:36,851 --> 0:33:41,481
"Embattled CEO wanders NYC streets
barefoot, looking frantic."
590
0:33:43,358 --> 0:33:44,985
It's definitely going viral.
591
0:33:45,68 --> 0:33:46,69
Viral?
592
0:33:46,152 --> 0:33:47,988
HomeGardenGnome commented,
593
0:33:48,71 --> 0:33:51,199
"No one who walks around barefoot
in New York
594
0:33:51,283 --> 0:33:54,244
should be in charge
of a multibillion-dollar company."
595
0:33:54,327 --> 0:33:56,913
BirdieBoy says, "Enjoy the ringworm."
596
0:33:56,997 --> 0:34:0,458
Enough, please. Please. Enough.
597
0:34:0,542 --> 0:34:4,170
Someone just made his bare feet an emoji.
It's being used like a thumbs down.
598
0:34:4,254 --> 0:34:6,840
Machosammy,
"Does he think he's Jesus?"
599
0:34:6,923 --> 0:34:8,300
Babygene7151,
600
0:34:8,383 --> 0:34:10,635
"He's walking around
in filth and excrement.
601
0:34:10,719 --> 0:34:12,304
What a complete fucking nut--"
602
0:34:12,387 --> 0:34:14,14
Enough!
603
0:34:14,97 --> 0:34:17,976
He grew up on a fucking kibbutz.
He likes to walk around barefoot.
604
0:34:18,59 --> 0:34:19,728
Is that a fucking crime?
605
0:34:38,413 --> 0:34:39,414
Let it go.
606
0:34:42,374 --> 0:34:43,460
The IPO?
607
0:34:44,44 --> 0:34:45,420
All of it.
608
0:34:47,756 --> 0:34:48,757
No.
609
0:34:53,762 --> 0:34:55,512
You said it was all for me?
610
0:34:56,972 --> 0:34:58,99
And it is.
611
0:35:0,352 --> 0:35:1,686
I don't need it.
612
0:35:5,190 --> 0:35:7,984
Let it go for me. For us.
613
0:35:19,371 --> 0:35:22,499
-You know what happens if I step down.
-I know.
614
0:35:25,43 --> 0:35:26,545
But this…
615
0:35:28,838 --> 0:35:31,7
This is all that matters.
616
0:35:31,758 --> 0:35:34,970
You, me, the kids.
617
0:35:35,53 --> 0:35:37,55
We can live on the farm.
618
0:35:39,307 --> 0:35:41,393
We can be wild. We can
619
0:35:42,352 --> 0:35:45,105
howl at the moon like the old days.
620
0:35:52,821 --> 0:35:54,155
Will you howl with me?
621
0:36:4,791 --> 0:36:6,376
Money doesn't matter.
622
0:36:8,253 --> 0:36:11,715
The only people who say that
are the ones who always had it.
623
0:36:11,798 --> 0:36:15,302
And maybe having too much
is just as bad as not having any at all.
624
0:36:15,385 --> 0:36:17,262
Trust me, motek.
625
0:36:18,54 --> 0:36:19,55
It's not.
626
0:37:6,19 --> 0:37:7,395
Miggy-Migs.
627
0:37:7,479 --> 0:37:10,106
Hey. What are you doing here?
628
0:37:14,486 --> 0:37:15,654
São Paulo?
629
0:37:17,614 --> 0:37:20,617
Nope. This is Reykjavík.
630
0:37:21,201 --> 0:37:22,702
-In Iceland.
-Reykjavik.
631
0:37:22,786 --> 0:37:25,914
Yeah, we found
an old fish filet warehouse.
632
0:37:27,82 --> 0:37:28,166
Smelt.
633
0:37:28,792 --> 0:37:30,710
-Smelt?
-Smelt.
634
0:37:31,920 --> 0:37:33,421
They're these little fish.
635
0:37:33,505 --> 0:37:34,798
Apparently, they reek.
636
0:37:36,174 --> 0:37:39,344
We spent 45,000 fumigating.
637
0:37:42,305 --> 0:37:43,890
Whoever smelt it dealt it.
638
0:37:47,644 --> 0:37:49,312
Whoever dealt it, felt it.
639
0:37:53,108 --> 0:37:55,944
Listen. You frustrate me.
640
0:37:58,29 --> 0:37:59,906
Like no one I've ever met.
641
0:38:1,491 --> 0:38:3,577
-Yeah.
-You always have.
642
0:38:6,580 --> 0:38:7,831
But I love you.
643
0:38:13,587 --> 0:38:15,255
You don't deserve this.
644
0:38:18,174 --> 0:38:19,676
I love you too, Miguel.
645
0:38:23,263 --> 0:38:24,639
What are you going to do?
646
0:38:31,146 --> 0:38:32,564
The right thing.
647
0:38:33,607 --> 0:38:34,691
For once.
648
0:38:39,237 --> 0:38:40,614
Is there a motion?
649
0:38:40,697 --> 0:38:42,32
So moved.
650
0:38:42,699 --> 0:38:43,909
Is there a second?
651
0:38:43,992 --> 0:38:44,993
Seconded.
652
0:38:45,76 --> 0:38:46,870
Properly moved and seconded.
653
0:38:46,953 --> 0:38:51,82
All those in favor of removing
Adam Neumann as CEO,
654
0:38:51,166 --> 0:38:53,752
please signify by saying, "Aye."
655
0:38:54,377 --> 0:38:55,378
Aye.
656
0:38:56,296 --> 0:38:57,297
Aye.
657
0:38:58,340 --> 0:38:59,507
Aye.
658
0:38:59,591 --> 0:39:0,967
Aye.
659
0:39:1,51 --> 0:39:2,177
Aye.
660
0:39:2,260 --> 0:39:3,261
Aye.
661
0:39:5,388 --> 0:39:6,431
Aye.
662
0:39:13,230 --> 0:39:14,231
Aye.
663
0:39:39,839 --> 0:39:42,759
Thank you all for making
yourselves available
664
0:39:42,842 --> 0:39:44,803
at such late notice.
665
0:39:44,886 --> 0:39:47,973
I'm sure you have questions,
and I do want to answer them,
666
0:39:48,56 --> 0:39:51,59
but if it's all right,
I would like to say something first.
667
0:39:51,768 --> 0:39:54,521
When I marched
into our architect's office
668
0:39:54,604 --> 0:39:57,524
with the six foundational principles
of WeGrow,
669
0:39:58,108 --> 0:40:1,820
I told him,
"Bjarke, we've got a deadline."
670
0:40:1,903 --> 0:40:3,29
'Cause…
671
0:40:4,281 --> 0:40:7,75
I knew, as a mom,
672
0:40:7,742 --> 0:40:12,998
that it was my responsibility to use
everything I have learned in this world
673
0:40:13,81 --> 0:40:15,542
to reimagine early childhood education.
674
0:40:15,625 --> 0:40:17,294
Not just for my kids.
675
0:40:19,170 --> 0:40:20,964
But for all children.
676
0:40:24,217 --> 0:40:26,970
What I didn't know was that…
677
0:40:30,724 --> 0:40:34,853
this school would become my sixth child.
678
0:40:34,936 --> 0:40:35,937
My…
679
0:40:38,732 --> 0:40:41,776
proudest achievement after my own family.
680
0:40:46,698 --> 0:40:50,118
Which is why it breaks my heart
to tell you
681
0:40:50,201 --> 0:40:53,246
that WeGrow will be closing
at the end of this school year.
682
0:40:55,206 --> 0:40:57,334
Schools locked next year's admissions
months ago.
683
0:40:57,417 --> 0:41:0,337
-My child is on scholarship.
-Rebekah, what's happening?
684
0:41:0,420 --> 0:41:4,466
I hear you, I hear you and I promise you,
685
0:41:4,549 --> 0:41:7,802
each and every one of your children
686
0:41:7,886 --> 0:41:11,890
has learned the meaning of resilience
and adaptability.
687
0:41:11,973 --> 0:41:14,184
What the fuck are you talking about?
688
0:41:14,267 --> 0:41:17,854
Resilience and adaptability
won't pay for my kid's tuition.
689
0:41:17,938 --> 0:41:19,606
Okay. Okay…
690
0:41:20,607 --> 0:41:23,235
So, okay, we'll-- Loo-- I--
691
0:41:24,945 --> 0:41:27,447
-Start your own school.
-You can't be serious.
692
0:41:27,530 --> 0:41:28,531
Fuck you, Rebekah.
693
0:41:29,616 --> 0:41:31,534
-Yeah.
-No way.
694
0:41:39,376 --> 0:41:42,254
"While our business
has never been stronger,
695
0:41:42,337 --> 0:41:44,881
in recent weeks the scrutiny
directed toward me
696
0:41:44,965 --> 0:41:47,342
has become a significant distraction.
697
0:41:48,134 --> 0:41:52,222
I have decided that it is in the best
interest of the company to step down
698
0:41:52,305 --> 0:41:53,431
as chief executive."
699
0:41:53,515 --> 0:41:55,267
-Jesus.
-Fucking dick.
700
0:41:56,226 --> 0:41:57,227
Hey, Chloe.
701
0:42:0,605 --> 0:42:3,483
She sold that bag to a woman
on the Upper East Side.
702
0:42:4,192 --> 0:42:5,527
She lost $5,000.
703
0:42:5,610 --> 0:42:6,528
What?
704
0:42:6,611 --> 0:42:8,154
I told her to get it.
705
0:42:9,114 --> 0:42:11,908
Hey, where's Bea?
I haven't seen her in a while.
706
0:42:12,993 --> 0:42:15,495
Bea got accepted to HBS.
She peaced out.
707
0:42:15,579 --> 0:42:17,289
Bea got into Harvard Business School?
708
0:42:17,372 --> 0:42:18,290
-Yeah.
-Yeah.
709
0:42:18,373 --> 0:42:20,292
She wrote her admissions essay
about WeWork
710
0:42:20,375 --> 0:42:21,793
and how not to grow a start-up.
711
0:42:23,169 --> 0:42:25,5
Guys. Everyone.
712
0:42:25,755 --> 0:42:27,465
I think he's about to start.
713
0:42:28,8 --> 0:42:29,676
Everyone, can you come, please?
714
0:42:30,635 --> 0:42:34,306
Guys from the computers,
can you bring it around?
715
0:42:44,399 --> 0:42:45,817
Are you gonna sing?
716
0:42:47,360 --> 0:42:48,695
No, I'm not gonna sing.
717
0:42:49,738 --> 0:42:51,948
I know that this has been a…
718
0:42:53,33 --> 0:42:56,953
confusing and stressful time.
719
0:42:57,37 --> 0:42:59,998
And I know there's been a lot of rumors
and speculation.
720
0:43:0,957 --> 0:43:3,126
About what's happening.
721
0:43:6,338 --> 0:43:11,718
So, I thought you should hear
about the future of our company.
722
0:43:11,801 --> 0:43:13,637
Of your company…
723
0:43:16,598 --> 0:43:18,725
directly from its new CEO.
724
0:43:19,309 --> 0:43:20,977
-So…
-Okay.
725
0:43:24,731 --> 0:43:26,358
-Cameron Lautner.
-What?
726
0:43:26,441 --> 0:43:27,734
So, Cam.
727
0:43:28,443 --> 0:43:29,653
Is this a joke?
728
0:43:30,237 --> 0:43:32,489
-Come on.
-Whoa.
729
0:43:44,793 --> 0:43:46,378
Adam Neumann.
730
0:43:46,461 --> 0:43:48,46
Boo.
731
0:43:50,549 --> 0:43:52,634
Adam Neumann.
732
0:43:54,177 --> 0:43:56,680
He's been called lots of things,
hasn't he?
733
0:43:57,597 --> 0:43:59,140
What is he, a visionary?
734
0:44:0,100 --> 0:44:3,853
Unicorn? Maverick? A magician?
735
0:44:4,854 --> 0:44:10,151
And like a magician,
he's tried to perform a sleight of hand
736
0:44:10,235 --> 0:44:12,70
over the entire financial world.
737
0:44:12,153 --> 0:44:17,617
Crafted an illusion that you all
were part of something bigger.
738
0:44:18,201 --> 0:44:21,246
What were you gonna do?
Raise the world's consciousness?
739
0:44:21,329 --> 0:44:25,83
Solve world hunger?
Care for all the world's orphans?
740
0:44:25,166 --> 0:44:28,461
Excuse me, how the fuck
is a shared work space company
741
0:44:28,545 --> 0:44:30,130
supposed to do any of that?
742
0:44:30,714 --> 0:44:33,675
He deluded you. He did!
743
0:44:33,758 --> 0:44:36,970
And what's worse is
you deluded yourselves.
744
0:44:37,888 --> 0:44:39,764
Because you forgot what every child knows.
745
0:44:39,848 --> 0:44:41,725
Unicorns don't exist.
746
0:44:42,434 --> 0:44:46,187
They don't. Sorry to be the bearer,
but that's the truth.
747
0:44:46,271 --> 0:44:48,189
No matter how much we might want them to.
748
0:44:48,273 --> 0:44:51,568
So I think it's about time
that we got really honest
749
0:44:51,651 --> 0:44:54,29
about what we actually do here.
750
0:44:54,112 --> 0:44:56,823
We're not here to raise
the world's consciousness.
751
0:44:56,907 --> 0:44:59,701
That's not how capitalism works.
752
0:44:59,784 --> 0:45:3,580
We're here to earn value
for our investors,
753
0:45:3,663 --> 0:45:7,626
and we're going to do that by providing
high-quality shared work spaces
754
0:45:7,709 --> 0:45:9,544
at a competitive price.
755
0:45:9,628 --> 0:45:14,591
And what are you going to get in return?
A fair wage and real profit sharing.
756
0:45:14,674 --> 0:45:18,53
Adam says, "Do what you love"?
Is that right?
757
0:45:18,136 --> 0:45:22,224
"Do what you love,
the money, oh, it will follow."
758
0:45:22,307 --> 0:45:23,225
What?
759
0:45:23,934 --> 0:45:26,895
No, sir. Excuse me, it's hard work.
760
0:45:26,978 --> 0:45:30,273
That's the truth of it, isn't it?
It's hard fucking work.
761
0:45:30,357 --> 0:45:32,484
Work sucks
and that's what you've got to do.
762
0:45:32,567 --> 0:45:35,779
That, along with a little bit of luck,
and then you'll make the moola.
763
0:45:35,862 --> 0:45:39,824
So, I want to know who's with me.
764
0:45:41,243 --> 0:45:45,330
Who's ready to put down
these childish fantasies
765
0:45:45,413 --> 0:45:48,917
of saving the world and unicorns,
766
0:45:49,0 --> 0:45:54,589
and who wants to be part
of a real, sustainable company,
767
0:45:54,673 --> 0:45:57,842
with a future
that you can really believe in?
768
0:45:58,426 --> 0:46:1,12
-Who's ready? Let me hear you.
-Yeah.
769
0:46:2,13 --> 0:46:3,974
Look, there's an adult in charge now.
770
0:46:4,891 --> 0:46:6,226
And I assure you,
771
0:46:7,435 --> 0:46:10,313
WeWork's best days are ahead.
772
0:46:11,231 --> 0:46:13,358
Thank you for your time. Go back to work.
773
0:46:19,281 --> 0:46:20,782
We're fucked.
774
0:46:23,493 --> 0:46:24,703
We're fucked!
775
0:46:25,954 --> 0:46:28,623
I divested from the wave pool company,
sold "Air Cannabis,"
776
0:46:28,707 --> 0:46:30,333
whatever he was calling that fucking jet.
777
0:46:30,417 --> 0:46:32,794
Got rid of that goddamn school,
and we're still bleeding money
778
0:46:32,878 --> 0:46:34,462
out of our fucking tits.
779
0:46:34,546 --> 0:46:35,881
We need to do something.
780
0:46:37,924 --> 0:46:38,925
Layoffs.
781
0:46:39,9 --> 0:46:42,345
Layoffs means severance.
Severance means money.
782
0:46:42,429 --> 0:46:44,764
We don't have--
We can't afford to fucking fire people,
783
0:46:44,848 --> 0:46:46,433
that's how fucked we are-- Yes?
784
0:46:46,516 --> 0:46:49,144
You have the board meeting in a half-hour.
You should get going.
785
0:46:54,24 --> 0:46:55,150
Okay.
786
0:46:55,233 --> 0:46:56,568
Okay. Come on.
787
0:46:56,651 --> 0:46:58,695
We gotta do something,
gotta say something, boy.
788
0:46:58,778 --> 0:47:0,280
Gotta say something.
789
0:47:2,532 --> 0:47:4,576
I don't know what--
790
0:47:6,953 --> 0:47:8,246
What would Adam do?
791
0:47:10,123 --> 0:47:12,709
We need cash. Simple as that.
792
0:47:12,792 --> 0:47:15,795
We need cash or WeWork's
gonna run out of money.
793
0:47:15,879 --> 0:47:18,6
-When?
-Under two months.
794
0:47:18,89 --> 0:47:19,132
What? Are you serious?
795
0:47:19,216 --> 0:47:22,510
How are we finding out about this now?
How is that possible?
796
0:47:22,594 --> 0:47:24,512
Go on, Miguel. Why don't you tell them
how you and Adam
797
0:47:24,596 --> 0:47:25,889
cocked this whole thing up?
798
0:47:28,58 --> 0:47:31,269
We accelerated expansion
ahead of the IPO.
799
0:47:31,353 --> 0:47:32,479
Okay.
800
0:47:32,562 --> 0:47:35,65
Construction is expensive,
especially when you're trying to rush it.
801
0:47:35,148 --> 0:47:37,567
-Yeah. Of course.
-No shit.
802
0:47:37,651 --> 0:47:41,238
You were the guys who wanted
to impress the markets, so--
803
0:47:41,321 --> 0:47:44,157
All right, that-- that stops now.
804
0:47:44,241 --> 0:47:46,117
No more new locations.
805
0:47:46,201 --> 0:47:47,410
We already signed the leases.
806
0:47:47,494 --> 0:47:48,578
Oh, Jesus.
807
0:47:48,662 --> 0:47:49,496
How many?
808
0:47:50,413 --> 0:47:51,456
We're doubling in size.
809
0:47:51,539 --> 0:47:54,751
-That's fucking stupid.
-Time out. Time out! You said double?
810
0:47:54,834 --> 0:47:57,420
All right, all right. So…
811
0:47:57,504 --> 0:47:59,422
We're in a bit of a pickle, aren't we?
812
0:47:59,506 --> 0:48:1,633
We need billions of dollars, right?
813
0:48:1,716 --> 0:48:5,178
And we need it in the next eight weeks,
so who do we know?
814
0:48:5,262 --> 0:48:9,224
Well, we have at least one investor
with pockets deep enough to do that.
815
0:48:9,307 --> 0:48:10,308
SoftBank.
816
0:48:10,392 --> 0:48:15,230
They won't come in now.
Not while Adam has the controlling vote.
817
0:48:15,313 --> 0:48:16,648
He's stepped down as CEO,
818
0:48:16,731 --> 0:48:18,692
but the prick still has
the majority of shares.
819
0:48:18,775 --> 0:48:22,279
Which means, CEO or not,
we can't override his vote.
820
0:48:22,362 --> 0:48:23,655
Shit.
821
0:48:26,491 --> 0:48:28,368
That fucking wanker.
822
0:48:31,37 --> 0:48:32,831
Money doesn't matter.
823
0:48:32,914 --> 0:48:36,251
The only people who say that
are the ones who always had it.
824
0:48:36,334 --> 0:48:40,46
And maybe having too much
is just as bad as not having any at all.
825
0:48:40,130 --> 0:48:41,840
Trust me, motek.
826
0:48:42,674 --> 0:48:43,925
It's not.
827
0:48:53,310 --> 0:48:55,854
And the only one who knows that
more than me
828
0:48:56,813 --> 0:48:57,898
is Masa.
829
0:48:57,981 --> 0:48:59,649
You see what he's doing here, right?
830
0:48:59,733 --> 0:49:4,362
Adam knows Masa is trying to raise
$100 billion for Vision Fund 2.
831
0:49:4,988 --> 0:49:7,490
That's going to be impossible
if the fucking crown jewel
832
0:49:7,574 --> 0:49:10,327
of Vision Fund 1 has gone bankrupt, right?
833
0:49:11,244 --> 0:49:14,497
Yeah, but if WeWork goes bankrupt,
834
0:49:14,581 --> 0:49:17,334
all of Adam's lenders are coming for him.
835
0:49:18,168 --> 0:49:19,461
He'll lose everything.
836
0:49:20,587 --> 0:49:23,256
Well, I guess it comes down
to one question then, doesn't it?
837
0:49:23,340 --> 0:49:25,300
Sorry, what question?
838
0:49:27,93 --> 0:49:28,637
Who's gonna blink first?
839
0:49:59,209 --> 0:50:0,418
Masa.
840
0:50:1,44 --> 0:50:2,879
You're the crazier one.
841
0:50:6,174 --> 0:50:9,386
500 million for you to sell your shares.
842
0:50:12,472 --> 0:50:13,473
Adam?
843
0:50:14,558 --> 0:50:15,850
Are you still there?
844
0:50:19,145 --> 0:50:20,480
Yes.
845
0:50:21,64 --> 0:50:22,524
Did you hear my offer?
846
0:50:22,607 --> 0:50:23,692
Yes.
847
0:50:25,944 --> 0:50:27,70
Well?
848
0:50:30,323 --> 0:50:31,324
No.
849
0:50:42,669 --> 0:50:44,4
What did he say?
850
0:50:45,589 --> 0:50:49,92
He made an offer.
He'll make another one.
851
0:50:52,220 --> 0:50:54,14
Are you sure?
852
0:50:54,97 --> 0:50:57,517
A high-stakes standoff
is playing out behind closed doors
853
0:50:57,601 --> 0:50:59,769
over the fate of WeWork.
854
0:51:41,686 --> 0:51:42,687
Yes?
855
0:51:42,771 --> 0:51:44,856
Adam Neumann
essentially getting to ride off
856
0:51:44,940 --> 0:51:48,443
into the sunset, like you said there,
with a golden parachute.
857
0:51:48,526 --> 0:51:52,489
This deal includes $975 million
858
0:51:52,572 --> 0:51:56,368
for a cap-out to buy shares
that Neumann owns,
859
0:51:56,451 --> 0:51:58,578
$500 million for a loan
860
0:51:58,662 --> 0:52:3,124
and $185 million for a "consulting fee."
861
0:52:3,208 --> 0:52:5,252
He's now going to step down
from the board,
862
0:52:5,335 --> 0:52:10,882
and this will see SoftBank
take 80% of this troubled company.
863
0:52:10,966 --> 0:52:13,593
We're already seeing some employees
really worried
864
0:52:13,677 --> 0:52:16,638
about what this massive payout
for Adam Neumann means.
865
0:54:33,567 --> 0:54:34,568
See?
866
0:54:35,151 --> 0:54:36,987
This is all we need.
867
0:54:37,946 --> 0:54:42,33
Water, sun, air, us.
868
0:54:43,535 --> 0:54:44,953
I feel reborn.
869
0:54:51,126 --> 0:54:52,127
What?
870
0:54:53,503 --> 0:54:54,880
Just got the email.
871
0:54:55,964 --> 0:54:57,173
It's official.
872
0:54:58,633 --> 0:54:59,634
Ho--
873
0:54:59,718 --> 0:55:3,96
It's the rights for the curriculum
for WeGrow.
874
0:55:3,179 --> 0:55:4,556
I bought them for you.
875
0:55:7,392 --> 0:55:9,561
Of course, we can't use the name WeGrow,
876
0:55:10,729 --> 0:55:12,564
but I know you'll think of something.
877
0:55:19,321 --> 0:55:20,989
Thank you so much.
878
0:55:21,72 --> 0:55:23,241
No, thank you. Thank you.
879
0:55:27,37 --> 0:55:29,998
Oh, wait, honey. Adam, your goggles.
880
0:55:30,81 --> 0:55:32,167
Don't worry about me. I know the Dead Sea.
881
0:55:32,250 --> 0:55:33,835
I'm an old Navy man.
882
0:55:33,919 --> 0:55:37,47
Okay, just please.
The salt, your eyes, just--
883
0:55:37,589 --> 0:55:40,717
How are you doing?
Do you want to watch your daddy swim?
884
0:55:40,800 --> 0:55:43,803
You want to watch me?
I'm going look for a whale. Okay.
885
0:55:43,887 --> 0:55:47,224
I'm going to bring one back for you.
You watch!
886
0:55:59,694 --> 0:56:0,779
Adam!
887
0:56:7,244 --> 0:56:8,245
Hello?
888
0:56:8,745 --> 0:56:10,413
Oh, Rebekah. How are you?
889
0:56:10,497 --> 0:56:12,374
How is Tel Aviv?
890
0:56:12,457 --> 0:56:13,541
Good.
891
0:56:14,167 --> 0:56:16,711
Good. I'm looking for Adam.
892
0:56:16,795 --> 0:56:19,339
Yeah. He just went for a swim,
893
0:56:19,422 --> 0:56:22,926
but do you want to leave a message?
894
0:56:23,552 --> 0:56:26,721
No, no. No message. Just a question.
895
0:56:26,805 --> 0:56:28,598
For you.
896
0:56:28,682 --> 0:56:29,933
Okay.
897
0:56:31,434 --> 0:56:34,604
Who wins in a fight?
The smart one or the crazy one?
898
0:56:35,188 --> 0:56:36,690
What?
899
0:56:36,773 --> 0:56:38,942
Who wins in a fight?
900
0:56:39,25 --> 0:56:41,486
The smart one or the crazy one?
901
0:56:46,992 --> 0:56:48,201
The smart one.
902
0:56:48,827 --> 0:56:50,912
You're smarter than your husband.
903
0:56:50,996 --> 0:56:52,497
He said the crazy one.
904
0:56:53,957 --> 0:56:55,584
But it's a trick question.
905
0:56:55,667 --> 0:56:58,44
It's not the smart one or the crazy one.
906
0:57:1,131 --> 0:57:2,173
Then who?
907
0:57:3,758 --> 0:57:6,469
The one with all the money.
908
0:57:11,266 --> 0:57:13,935
I-I don't understand,
what are you…
909
0:57:16,897 --> 0:57:19,107
You will never get that buyout package.
910
0:57:19,190 --> 0:57:20,942
Not a single penny.
911
0:57:21,26 --> 0:57:22,569
I will make sure of it.
912
0:57:26,72 --> 0:57:28,408
You and Adam have a deal.
913
0:57:29,326 --> 0:57:32,913
The next time we speak
will be through lawyers.
914
0:57:34,456 --> 0:57:35,415
Ma--
915
0:57:35,916 --> 0:57:36,917
A--
916
0:57:39,44 --> 0:57:40,45
Adam.
917
0:57:40,128 --> 0:57:43,882
Adam. Adam. Adam.
918
0:57:43,965 --> 0:57:45,508
Adam, the money.
919
0:57:46,801 --> 0:57:48,94
The money!
920
0:57:49,679 --> 0:57:51,765
My eyes. My eyes!
921
0:57:51,848 --> 0:57:53,934
-Adam, the money!
-I can't see!
922
0:57:54,17 --> 0:57:55,894
-Adam!
-My eyes, I can't see.
923
0:57:55,977 --> 0:57:57,395
I can't see.
924
0:57:57,479 --> 0:57:58,438
Adam! The money!
925
0:57:58,521 --> 0:58:0,690
Help us! Please!
926
0:59:5,755 --> 0:59:7,924
When I met Rebekah
about nine years ago,
927
0:59:8,8 --> 0:59:12,137
and then she was my girlfriend, um,
I weighed about 20 pounds less than today.
928
0:59:12,220 --> 0:59:14,639
I was smoking
two packs of cigarettes a day,
929
0:59:14,723 --> 0:59:16,808
I had a lot of very unhealthy habits.
930
0:59:16,892 --> 0:59:20,20
And even though I was a big talker,
I had nothing to show for it.
931
0:59:20,103 --> 0:59:22,63
The first thing she told me is,
'You're full of shit.''
932
0:59:22,147 --> 0:59:23,440
That was the first thing.
933
0:59:23,523 --> 0:59:27,152
"You talk like you are all that,
you literally can't even buy me dinner."
934
0:59:27,235 --> 0:59:29,279
She said, "Even though this--
I do believe in equality
935
0:59:29,362 --> 0:59:30,697
between men and women."
She said,
936
0:59:30,780 --> 0:59:33,33
"It's okay if you paid for dinner
one time, it's not a bad thing."
937
0:59:33,116 --> 0:59:35,660
Because I would offer to pay,
being polite, and he would accept.
938
0:59:35,744 --> 0:59:38,788
Which just was completely strange
for an American girl.
939
0:59:38,872 --> 0:59:40,916
And she said-- she said to me,
940
0:59:40,999 --> 0:59:44,711
"If you don't immediately
stop chasing the wrong thing,
941
0:59:44,794 --> 0:59:46,463
actually find your passion,
942
0:59:46,546 --> 0:59:49,7
find what it is that makes a difference
for you.
943
0:59:49,90 --> 0:59:52,719
Find, and then take that, mix it with
what you do, what you love at the most."
944
0:59:52,802 --> 0:59:54,638
Which in my case
is bringing people together.
945
0:59:54,721 --> 0:59:56,848
And I do happen to love buildings,
I don't know why.
946
0:59:56,932 --> 0:59:59,517
"If you don't find a way to bring
these two things together
947
0:59:59,601 --> 1:0:1,519
and really do something meaningful
for the world,
948
1:0:1,603 --> 1:0:4,105
not only will nothing you do
never really work,
949
1:0:4,189 --> 1:0:6,983
even if something did work,
you'll never feel fulfilled."
950
1:0:7,67 --> 1:0:9,736
She said, "My suggestion for you is,
drop everything you're doing,
951
1:0:9,819 --> 1:0:11,71
go find something real.
952
1:0:11,154 --> 1:0:14,157
Stop worrying about the bottom line,
because it's not about that.
953
1:0:14,241 --> 1:0:17,577
Redefine success and fulfillment
as something greater than yourself,
954
1:0:17,661 --> 1:0:20,330
and the rest will follow."
I have to say, I did all of that.
955
1:0:20,413 --> 1:0:22,165
-Rebekah, I want to say thank you.
-Adam, my love.
956
1:0:22,249 --> 1:0:24,167
-I'd be nothing without you.
-Well put.
