6686 : According to internet source it state that the owner of a long call for a stock is entitled to a dividend only if the option is exercised prior to the ex-dividend date, which is usually a few days prior to the record date.

QianmengYu : It's a complicated question. Holding a call is not recommended. First, options don't adjust the regular payoff; if the special payoff exceeds the threshold, it will be adjusted. Dividends are taken into account when calculating fair value according to reason, but due to technical issues, many companies' models do not consider them, including some market makers. But ZIM is giving too much... Sometimes this kind of situation becomes corporate action, breaking up a cash company and then dissolving the funds to avoid taxes. This kind of situation will be amended. So it's complicated
