super actress

Although Rhea spoke quite imposingly, in fact, she also knew very well that the chance of her winning over Andre Witter was very small, and the other party's financial strength must be better than hers.

When he invested 6000 million US dollars in "Titanic", he didn't even blink his eyes. Such a large amount of investment even big studios have to think about it, but this money is only Andre Witter's personal property. He doesn't even need to go through the company to make decisions.

If he is determined to develop in Hollywood and must buy "Harry Potter", Rhea has no doubts about Andri's strength, but the crux of the problem is that she knows very well that Andri doesn't care about the entertainment industry at all. .

It can only be said that the various miracles created by the predecessors gave him a lot of restrictions, and in the end he had to temporarily look away from industry, finance and even politics.

But it is impossible for Andri to let go of the various industries in his hands, so he has never opened up in Hollywood. He has too many things to do, and his desire to control is extremely strong. Management is delegated to someone else.

She reluctantly regards this as one of her advantages, and no creator will willingly sell his hard work to those who look down on the work itself.

And she is definitely more generous than Andri.

The question is, is he trying to give her a warning, or is he really trying to snatch the series from her.

This is related to Andri's price bottom line.

Malloy had a somewhat different take on this, "Is it my imagination? I found you to be particularly aggressive around Andre."

He often felt that Rhea's sense of competition in Hollywood was not strong enough, and this unexpected discovery surprised him very much.

Rhea answered him: "It's not that Andri is special, but I only attack my enemies."

If she had a list of enemies, Andri would definitely be at the top of the list.

They went to meet JK Rowling together again. Although Malloy didn't say whether he wanted to cooperate with Rhea, his actions had already shown his position and he chose to support her.

And he also knows that this kind of interest competition is not safe, and the various forces and characters involved are not just Hollywood producers and directors.

But the temptation of benefits brought by this is also attractive enough. Malloy is also a qualified businessman, so he can see the profit behind the risk.

The mode of cooperation between him and Rhea was reversed, Rhea contributed the money, and he was responsible for the effort. In addition to contacting the publishing house, Malloy also made a

some work.

Although brokers and clients cannot cooperate beyond a legitimate working relationship, that is another matter.

Rhea is now to obtain the author's trust and permission.

Rowling has not agreed to Andri, which means that Rhea still has hope, but she also knows that it cannot develop into a bidding war. She has no capital to fight with Andri, and this will only cause losses.

This should be what Rowling wants to see.

When Rhea sat in front of JK Rowling again, the British woman's attitude did not become very ambiguous, she just asked about the situation in a puzzled tone.

"I don't understand, why didn't you talk to me about this in the name of the company from the beginning?" Both she and the publishing house were baffled by the situation, "Isn't this also your production company?"

It is still rare for you to bid with your own company.

This is another advantage of her.

Rhea and Andri's calculations are very clear. Tam Fett is only Andri's personal property, but this does not affect others subconsciously thinking that it is a joint company between the two of them.

It is impossible for JK Rowling, who has studied various myths to create novels, not to know the meaning of Rhea's name, and they told her that Rhea has a production company, so it is normal for her to think so.They had intended to lead this way on purpose.

"As we said before, I have some disputes with Mr. Andre Witter." Rhea knew she couldn't take this topic, "I found that...he has no enthusiasm for this industry."

Rowling's answer gave Rhea a little confidence, "Andrei really doesn't care about the content of my work."

She met Andri in person, and what could reveal more about Andri, Rhea believed he could offend everyone in a minute.

"But he trusts your vision." Then Rowling's next words disappointed Rhea again, "I can imagine your cooperation model, and I think he still cares about you."

It seems that Andri has no intention of breaking up with her yet.

He clearly did it on purpose. If he really snatched this, Andre could completely exclude Rhea and get a random production company to buy "Harry Potter" instead of using a company related to Rhea.

Rhea couldn't think of how to answer for a while, well, it seems that Andri was just being a jerk to her.

"But this does not affect our value conflict. I still hope to buy the copyright in my own name. I am also willing to pay 200 million.

Paid for the film and television rights to the first Harry Potter film. "

Rowling was surprised by this sentence, which was far from the previous one-buyout price, but Rhea continued, "I will wait until you finish the series before paying for it."

She doubled the price several times in one breath. In other words, Rhea used a deposit of 200 million to promise a future payment of 1000 million.

What Rhea gambled on was that Andre might not be willing to pay such a high price for children's books, and Rowling's determination to double the money.

After the movie is released, she can indeed afford the money, and this series is worth the investment. If Rowling wants financial proof, Rhea will have to notarize the contract between her and Andre.

If the box office share cannot be guaranteed, then she has to—

The creator of the Harry Potter world scrutinized her: "You really like the story."

"Yes." Rhea pushed hard. "If I can't get it, can I get a copy of the first edition of Harry Potter?"

It's also quite valuable and very collectible.

This sentence made the author laugh, and the atmosphere dropped from tense to relaxed, without the embarrassment and jerkyness when they first met. Rowling showed her a rather mysterious smile: "Actually, I made a decision a long time ago, Rhea, but I I didn't expect you to be willing to raise the price so much."

"If it's a choice between Andri and you, if you offer the same price, I will choose you."

Rowling smiled meaningfully: "He is an American, and he does not agree to allow all British people to perform my works."

Although Rhea didn't have any opinions on the actor's affairs, she still didn't understand Rowling's meaning, "...I am also American." This is the current identity.

"You're an American now, but you won't necessarily be in the future."

This time she understood, but Rhea's expression also became unnatural, she didn't expect this to be used like this, this is not a method she would like to use.

But this is what Malloy would use, but how did he convince Rowling?

Seeing her tangled face, Rowling's reaction was quick, "Don't worry, I understand."

In the end, they took the initiative to take advantage of Prince William once - did Malloy really shape her into the future British princess?

Celebrity effect, matching what one likes, money offensive and power temptation, it will be strange if you can’t get it, but Rhea is still frightened by this reversal: "How did you do it?"

If this kind of news can

If you take the initiative to spread it to the publishing world, then the newspapers will be full of it.

"Don't ask me, ask about your luck." Malloy replied straightforwardly, "I won't be so stupid to say it so bluntly, I only hinted at some background things, you can learn from a group of British actors Receiving this award is the strongest proof."

"Although the circle is different, the news from the publishing house is not so closed. Anyway, I convinced them that you have a background."

She recognized Malloy's meaning: "You mean William helped me?"

"Have you ever told him?"

Rhea fell silent. She really mentioned it to William. At that time, she took it as a reason for rejection. The question was why he wanted it—he suspected that she just made up an excuse, so he wanted to verify it. .

Then she was very depressed: "I hate being in debt."

In fact, Rhea went this time with the determination to destroy Andri's deal if she didn't succeed.Anyway, she was not far from danger. This time, she was really angry, so she would rather take the risk of offending him than admit defeat.

Besides, hasn't she offended him enough times?

Soon, her troubles came to her.

"idiot."

No matter how long it had been since they hadn't seen each other, Andre Witter could always arouse Rhea's deep impression on him at the first time. This man was so typical that she couldn't forget it.

Breaking away from Mycroft's pretense of British etiquette and politeness among strangers, Andrea's arrogance in front of Rhea was not only aggressive but also very sharp.

Rhea couldn't figure out his whereabouts, but it was easy for Andri to find her. He talked directly with Rhea in the western restaurant of the hotel, "You paid ten times the price just to win me?"

To forgive her is to be preoccupied with this, "That's what I won too."

Without success in the competition, Andri's attitude was unexpectedly peaceful, "You can tell me directly why you think I want to build another production company. I said that I can invest in your vision."

But this superficially calm gentleness not only failed to comfort Rhea, but made her feel creepy. She knew exactly how petty this man was, and he was unwilling to accept defeat even in the slightest fight.

Who knew what secret trick he was holding back to take revenge on her.

"That's what I liked first." She deliberately wanted to sound childish, but she really couldn't hold back her anger, "It's you who want to rob me."

Once she did something more dangerous, Rhea got rid of her fear

Shadows, there are too many lice, so why be afraid of itching?

The blond-haired man stared at her for a while, his gray-blue eyes revealed a slightly cold helplessness and the ever-present sarcasm.

Within the range of this condescending attitude, he is willing to offer some kind of gentle compromise.

"If I really plan to grab it, I can buy the publishing house directly."

She didn't deny it, but she resisted.

"But you can rest assured that I came to the UK this time to acquire companies, not to compete with you for things." Andri cut the steak on his own plate. He likes low-done steaks, and he cut them piece by piece. , the tangents are straight and equidistant, and the norm is depressing.

He doesn't care about the outcome of this battle, how is it possible?Why?

"I've been busy with work before. I originally planned to take this as compensation for my birthday present. Since you don't want to accept it, I can only give up."

As if he cared so much, Rhea didn't appreciate it, and she believed it was a lie.

"Is there anything else I should thank you for?"

She brought the instrument for detecting mutants improved by Hank Pym, and put it in her bag. There were not many people in the restaurant, but there was no response to that instrument.

No matter what others tell her or what she suspects, she still has to confirm it.

Andri frowned slightly, "If you can be more obedient, there is no need to bear the extra costs, you asked for it yourself."

The way he reprimanded her sounded like a lesson to a pet, or at all, and his approach itself seemed like a lesson close to a serious warning.

Usually, owners don't mind being scratched by their cats.But he couldn't let his pet develop such a bad habit.

This association made Rhea feel uncomfortable, "I don't need to listen to you."

The man didn't speak, he cut a bit of beef and tasted it, then he put down his knife and fork and didn't intend to eat anymore, obviously he didn't like the taste, the plate in front of Rhea was even more empty, it was impossible for her to order this kind of meat For food, I just ordered onion soup and salad.

"Then you should do this." His eyes gradually became cold again.

For a moment, Rhea thought Andri knew what she was doing behind his back, but she soon realized that he wasn't looking at her.

"Someone is filming us."

Rhea wouldn't have noticed without flashing lights and voices, but she wasn't too surprised, she'd already met in Hollywood

I've had such a thing.

But because her living habits are very fixed, it's okay. The reporters only want to take pictures of her going into nightclubs, drinking, and kissing men. No one is interested in her contacting technology companies and publishing houses.

But it was the first time to be followed in the UK.

This is a western restaurant, so the solution is very simple. Andri called the service staff over directly, and he asked to drive out the person who came in with the camera. This violated the customer's privacy, and they have the right to ask for it.

Rhea didn't forget to delete those photos.

The eyes of the people around were attracted, and the guests who were quietly enjoying the food also recognized who Rhea was. Her face appeared frequently in British newspapers recently.

Ignoring the protests and complaints of the captured reporters, Andri reached out and took the camera from the security guard, and he flipped through a few photos casually.

In the camera, a man and a woman are sharing dinner at the dinner table. When there are only two people in the picture, everything can become ambiguous.

Andri smiled a little arrogantly: "He thought I was your boyfriend."

This is still polite, Rhea bet this reporter thought Andri was her adoptive person, he looked like that kind of style, but Rhea was not sensitive, she rolled her eyes.

"I'll have to speak to my agent."

It is more convenient for Malloy to handle this kind of matter, and Rhea doesn't want to get too stiff with the British paparazzi.

In particular, the other party should have paid a large fee for sneaking in here. If he doesn't handle it well, he will probably harbor resentment. Being hated by the paparazzi usually brings a lot of trouble. Rhea doesn't intend to take this risk.

Although Rhea thinks this kind of photo is nothing, it can be easily explained, but she doesn't want to have an affair with Andri, and there are many ties between them, and Andri doesn't like to show his face, so they made a decision immediately.

He detected some subtle signs from Rhea's attitude, "Do you have a boyfriend?"

She looked prepared and well prepared.

In fact, it is not difficult to find that the reason why Andri asked this question until now is that he is completely indifferent, and Rhea is not interested in communicating with him.

"Is that weird?"

This wasn't surprising, but Andre's reaction became a little strange, with a kind of nonchalant disgust, "...you've really reached this point."

Rhea thought he shouldn't care, his attitude was indeed extremely cold, but besides the coldness, he showed obvious disgust.

When he doesn't care, he doesn't know anything. When he wants to know, Andri can quickly find out the answer from a series of clues. He probably knows Rhea's activity itinerary.

"Are you serious? Falling in love with an actor?"

"Isn't this normal? Otherwise, I'm just an actress." Otherwise, it's models, directors, and agents. The social circle of stars is very narrow, and the working environment also limits their friends and social activities.

Rhea is just an extremely extreme case.

This answer made Andri sneer, "Then you should cherish this 'normal' time, and there will be no more in the future."

By saying this, he was telling Rhea in a disguised form that this relationship could not be maintained.

"Don't think everyone is abnormal just because you are abnormal."

She was alluding to Andri's genetic problem, and he could hear Rhea's meaning. It would be wrong if she was unconscious until now.

He didn't dwell on the subject again, saying only: "Get ready to promote your movie, I don't accept losses."
