Period.

The Gozon and Duavit families, who control 65 percent of GMA 7, will never sell to Manny, to PLDT, or to Smart. They would rather sell 20 to 30 percent of the country’s second largest broadcasting network to the public than to the PLDT group.

And knowing Manny, he would not settle for just acquiring the 35-percent stake of the Jimenezes in GMA 7. As in any company that he or First Pacific has acquired, he wants majority if not a controlling stake.
