The Best Entertainment Era

Chapter 148 Multi-party Action

Things are not going well? Tom Cruise's voice came from the phone: Ronan, is there another company that wants to recruit Allen?

Ronan thought for a while, and said to the phone: Yes. People from DreamWorks have also come to London...

Because he needed Tom Cruise's help, he outlined the matter.

Tom Cruise immediately understood why Ronan made the call, and said: I can't help you with this matter, I can't interfere with Alan's choice, this is disrespect to a friend, I hope Ronan you can understand.

Ronan was already prepared and said, Tom, you also know that the battle between the Big Three of DreamWorks has become increasingly fierce in the past two years. Alan Albert joined DreamWorks and is very likely to become a victim of internal struggles within the company, and Relativity Entertainment's equity Everything is in my hands, the company will not be so complicated, and it is more conducive to the development of newcomers.”

Of course, these words are all false, and Ronan is only holding Tom Cruise temporarily, so as not to let him hang up the phone.

If Tom Cruise still refuses, it's basically over.

Although I have not directly cooperated with DreamWorks and Spielberg. Tom Cruise did not directly refuse: But once this kind of thing gets out, it will affect my relationship with Spielberg, which is very important to me. unfavorable.

The implication was obvious, and Ronan could hear it, of course, and said, Tom, make a few phone calls and persuade Mr. Albert from the side, no one else will know.

If you want such a superstar to help, you must pay labor fees. Ronan made preparations before calling. When we met at the party last time, Tom Cruise even mentioned it to him.

This is the labor fee that Ronan prepared.

However, for such things as helping to pay, in the face of a very high-profile Hollywood superstar, you must not say it directly. Isn't that a shame for the other party?

Ronan had already thought up his words: By the way, Tom, apart from Mr. Albert's matter, I have one more thing I need your help with.

Tom Cruise on the other side of the phone frowned. It seems that he and Ronan Anderson don't have such a deep friendship, right? This person is really thick-skinned, he just made a phone call for him, but it didn't end there.

If I had known, I shouldn't have made that call.

My company, Sand Sea Entertainment, is preparing for the sequel of Human Purge Project...

Originally, Tom Cruise had the urge to hang up the phone, but when he heard the name Human Clearance Project, he immediately became interested, his ears were pricked up, and he caught the voice on the other side of the phone: I'm having a bit of difficulty in cash flow, The budget is $6 million, and there is still a funding gap of $1 million.”

Tom Cruise laughed: A small problem. He turned his mind quickly: Is $1 million enough? I happen to have an idle fund in my hand, about $3 million...

Ronan changed his hand to hold the phone. He has been in the industry for nearly 20 years, and he also has a film company. Even though Tom Cruise was semi-literate before, he has been trained.

This is half of the investment in Human Purge 2. Like this kind of joint investment in the industry, half of the investment basically means sharing half of the benefits.

Tom Cruise made an offer, and there was a discussion about this matter. Ronan saw him and finally confirmed that Tom Cruise's company would inject $1.5 million into the project Human Purge 2.

The two finalized the investment, and the specific details would naturally be discussed by people in the company.

At the end of the call with Ronan, Tom Cruise was very satisfied with the deal. This kind of small deal involving only a few people, as long as you pay a little attention, it will not spread. Even if it spreads, Spielberg and Meng The factory can't do anything to him.

Tom Cruise is very clear that standing behind him is Paramount Pictures!

He thought for a while, and first called the high-level members of the church to put pressure on Alan Albert. After waiting for a while, he called Alan Albert himself to tell the church In the name of persuading Alan Albert to choose Ronan Anderson's Embassy Pictures.

Even if DreamWorks and Spielberg find out in the future, this is also the fault of Scientology. Tom Cruise is just a poor guy controlled by Scientology.

Alan Albert over there also said that he would seriously consider Ronan's invitation.

In London, Ronan asked Danny Donald out alone, and specially chose the London Chinatown where Danny Donald grew up.

In the private room of the teahouse, Ronan washed and brewed the tea several times, which almost made Danny Donald's eyeballs fall out of shock.

Ronan poured good tea for Danny Donald and said, Taste it, it's the best... At this point, he switched to Chinese: Longjing before the rain.

Danny-Donald raised his eyebrows unconsciously, picked up the small teacup, took a sip, and said, Mr. Anderson can speak Chinese?

Luo Nan smiled and said in Chinese: I can speak some. His Mandarin is still standard: When I was young, I traveled to the East and learned some.

Although Danny Donald is a second-generation immigrant, he can speak Chinese well: Here, it is rare to be able to speak Chinese so fluently.

The main thing is that I like the culture there. Ronan said with a smile, 5000 years of civilization accumulation, the upstarts like the United States can't compare.

Danny-Donald showed a look of reminiscence: I went back several times with my mother when I was a teenager. Three years ago, because of work, I passed by there and went to see it...

Ronan had investigated Danny Donald in detail, so he naturally knew his background, otherwise he would not have chosen such a place to meet.

Danny Donald suddenly asked: Mr. Anderson

Students like oriental culture very much?

Ronan didn't deliberately say that he liked it, and said with a smile: I have studied the cultures of many places. Arab culture, African culture, etc., these are all part of the world.

Danny Donald nodded lightly: The culture of every nation belongs to the treasures of the world.

Well. Ronan extended in a direction that was beneficial to him: Just like the movie industry in this world, colorful movies make up this wonderful world.

He continued: In my opinion, films from all over the world should communicate with each other. Take my Relativity Entertainment as an example. Some of the funds for filming come from Arabia, some from Germany, and some from the United States. , the use of actors is more diverse, and Arabs, Africans, whites, Asians, and Latinos can all be used as protagonists.

Danny Donald drank the tea in the cup and looked at Ronan. If what he said was true, he was undoubtedly a young man with very left-leaning thoughts.

The boss of the company's thinking is left, and it is very easy to drive the overall atmosphere of the company to the left.

Ronan poured a cup of tea for Danny Donald again, and said in Chinese: Have you seen the Human Purge Project I made? And Ace Agent released on Thanksgiving this year? These two movies, the reaction It’s all about the ideas I just said.”

Not to mention, after receiving the information given by Ronan, Danny-Donald specifically found a few signature movies under Relativity Entertainment and browsed them. The main actors are really of all ethnicities.

Both films are good. Danny - Donald said: Especially Ace Agent, I like it very much.

Ronan drank the water in his glass, and said: The director of Human Purge Project is also the director of Death Comes James Huang. He has a Chinese name called Huang Yiyu. He is a generation of immigrants. He cooperated with me. Very happy, after directing these two films in succession, I will be preparing to cooperate with me in Human Purge 2.

Although he is a member of the British film industry, Danny Donald also knows that James Huang is of Chinese descent.

A boss and company who are willing to reuse Chinese directors?

Mr. Anderson, you are very powerful. Danny Donald said with a sudden smile, You are more powerful than all the young people I have ever met.

Ronan smiled: I'm just stating some facts.

What he said is all true, and there is no false element.

It can only be said that it is fortunate to know the direction of future development, and to know that the road to the left will become wider and wider.

If you want to really open things up in Hollywood, you must be inclusive, or at least show inclusiveness.

Ronan didn't directly attack DreamWorks. It's not the time yet. He started tea art with Danny Donald, who likes to drink tea. Fortunately, he had been in contact with it in his previous life. What he didn't understand was that his current skin was used as a disguise. No embarrassment.

It was probably because no one had talked to him about this for a long time. Danny Donald told Ronan a lot about tea art.

Later, the two chatted about the football game, probably because they had a good impression of Ronan. Danny Donald revealed that he and Alan Albert would go to Manchester to watch the game during the Christmas holiday, and they would stay about a week.

It wasn't until it was dark that the two of them contacted the interview and left London's Chinatown respectively.

Ronan then contacted Chris, who had already reported it to Gustafson. Sony Columbia had considerable scruples about DreamWorks having overseas distribution channels. According to Chris’ phone call, Gustafson Fussen was already reaching out to people at other companies.

According to the information obtained, Ronan also made timely adjustments.

Danny Donald found Alan Albert, who had just concluded a meeting with Albert Hoffman.

Alan Albert said: Danny, you should come together.

Danny Donald shook his head: I don't like that person, maybe you didn't notice it, but I can clearly feel it. He didn't bother about this, and asked, How's the talk going?

He offered the price on behalf of DreamWorks. Alan Albert said: My annual salary of $500,000, your annual salary of $200,000, and a year-end bonus based on the performance of the released movies.

This salary is a bit higher than before, but it is not absolutely attractive.

Danny Donald thought for a while and said, I think we should listen to Ronan Anderson's offer. Alan, you have read those materials. Ronan Anderson's company is developing rapidly, and there is a consortium behind it. , the future may not be as good as DreamWorks...

Alan Albert thought of the persuasion call from Tom Cruise he had received before, and nodded: Okay, let's talk to Ronan Anderson again.

The two discussed in low voices.

It was completely dark, Albert Hoffman left the hotel where he was staying, and went to the bar he frequented again. He was just sitting in front of the bar when a sexy girl approached him.
