Charlie Chaplin, Douglas, and Griffith left in a disorderly manner.
As for Chaplin's statement about wanting to withdraw from United Artists, Donnie didn't take it seriously.
Currently, Chaplin is more than just a master of comedy; he's also a businessman.
As a businessman, Chaplin is well aware that United Artists going public would bring him immense and tangible benefits.
If he were to quit United Artists now, it essentially means giving up tens of millions of US dollars in net worth — something very few can do in this era.
Even Chaplin couldn't do that.
Moreover, with Griffith's persuasion, Donnie believed that at least for now, Chaplin wouldn't be leaving United Artists.
In the evening, Shaw Gordon and Damour Bral came to meet Donnie.
Both of them seemed extremely respectful.
"Mr. Block, thank you very much for taking time out of your busy schedule to meet with us!"
Shaw Gordon expressed their gratitude to Donnie on behalf of both of them.
