Still don't see why anybody in those companies cares what a kid with $500 million & a dad who has no interest in either company
Ellison is worth $290 billion.
$275 billion is his stake in Oracle.

Not getting why anybody gives a darn about what they think of their companies.
In the entertainment industry, they're nothing.
