The Best Entertainment Era

Chapter 61 The French Director

In the conference room, Ronan had a heated chat with Hassan and Hussein.

This is a pleasant cooperation, and I would like to thank the two for their trust and support to Shahai Entertainment. Of course, he would not let the two take money for nothing, and each sent an invitation letter: The premiere of the film in Abu Dhabi This is also a film invested by the two, and there are two names and avatars on the subtitles of the film, I hope to have the honor of inviting the two to participate.”

Hussain immediately accepted the invitation and asked, Can you bring your family?

Ronan nodded: Of course.

Hearing this, Hussein grinned. It is too much for the children and their families to see their names and avatars on a Hollywood movie.

There are too few good things like making money and saving face.

Hassan thought more comprehensively than Hussein. Thinking of investing 300,000 US dollars and easily getting back more than 500,000 US dollars in less than a year, some thoughts became stronger and stronger.

This amount of money is really not much for him, but the rate of return is so high that it makes one's heart itch.

Mr. Anderson. Hassan accepted the invitation, and suddenly said: I heard that Hollywood film companies shoot a lot of films every year. Does Shahai Entertainment only have this Human Purge Project this year?

Ronan said calmly: Of course not. The goal of Sand Sea Entertainment is to become a big Hollywood company, and the next step is to invest in two large-scale movie projects...

Before he finished speaking, Hassan rushed to ask: Does your company continue to finance externally for its new projects?

Yes. Hussain looked at Ronan expectantly, Are you still financing?

Facts like money have proved that Shahai Entertainment has an excellent reputation, and Ronan Anderson on the opposite side is a capable and reliable young man.

Ronan nodded slowly, and said unhurriedly: One project needs to cooperate with the Investment Bureau. The other project... Well, I plan to raise funds. After the premiere of Human Purge Project, a financing meeting will be held. If the two of you are interested, you can participate then.

Hassan thought for a while and said, I will definitely participate.

Hussein chimed in: I'll be there too.

Welcome. Ronan said with a smile.

Hassan asked again: Mr. Anderson, may I ask, how much is the investment for this project?

The Human Purge Project has been a huge success. If this project does not exceed the psychological bottom line, it can be eaten by two people with Hussein.

Hussein and Hassan are close friends, and they also looked at Ronan with concern.

The budget is about 15 million US dollars. Ronan looked very calm, and what he said was very solid: There may be additional investment in the later stage.

Hassan stroked his beard lightly, 15 million US dollars is a bit too much, he and Hussein can get it out, but they have to consider the risk issue properly, after so many years of business, it is impossible to put all eggs in one basket in.

The two sides chatted for a few more words, and Robert brought the Abu Dhabi media to the meeting room at the right time, and happened to interview Hassan and Hussein.

As businessmen in Abu Dhabi who are not well-known, Hassan and Hussein are also willing to accept interviews.

This is a very successful investment. Hassan was relatively calm: Sandsea Entertainment in the United States has a good reputation. It produced a good movie, and the profits generated by the movie also prove it.

Hussein said with praise: This is the investment with the highest rate of return since I started business. I was hesitant at the time, but Mr. Ronan Anderson proved with facts that this deal is very cost-effective. I regret that I was too conservative and invested The money is too little. Fortunately, we still have the opportunity to cooperate with Mr. Ronan Anderson.

After the interview, the two asked about the time and place of the financing meeting and left the conference room.

Going down to the lobby on the first floor of the hotel, Hassan and Hussein did not leave immediately, but instead found a quiet place in the lobby,

discuss it.

This is a good opportunity! Hussein was a little excited: I missed it last time, and I can't miss it again.

Hassan frowned and thought, but didn't speak.

Hussain also said: People were invited by the Investment Bureau, and we will continue to cooperate with the Investment Bureau. Our first investment has also received due returns. Ronan Anderson and Shahai Entertainment are credible.

Ronan Anderson is trustworthy. Hassan did not doubt this, and said slowly: But have you ever thought that 15 million US dollars is too much pressure for us.

Hussain patted his leg: You don't know how little money is until you spend it.

Hassan's cell phone rang suddenly, and another friend's voice came from after it was connected: Didn't you go to settle the Hollywood investment? Did you really make money?

I really made it, the money has already arrived, almost doubled.

The voice in the microphone was a little surprised: No way? The reward is so generous? Is there a mistake?

Hassan replied: When I asked you to invest together, you said that the other party was unreliable, and now the money has already entered my account.

Ah...Hassan. The voice on the phone was flattering: Can you introduce me to that young Hollywood tycoon?

Hassan thought about it for a moment and replied, No problem.

After hanging up the phone, he looked at Hussein: As long as the capital chain is not affected, let's get more money this time.

Hussein nodded heavily: Okay!

…………

At Abu Dhabi International Airport, Mansour got off his private plane and specially invited a VIP from Paris, the capital of art, to his limousine.

Mr. Minister. This is a man with a somewhat Arab appearance: Have you read my script?

Mansur took the script next to him, held it in his hand and said, Mr. Fontaine, the script is excellent. I have also watched two films directed by you, which are very distinctive.

The other party directed two films, which were also screened in France. He had seen these two films, and asked people to conduct a detailed investigation in Paris. This director Fontaine, who is of UAE descent, is rapidly rising in the French film industry. Won important awards at two small local film festivals.

The information obtained from the investigation shows that this is a very promising director in Europe.

Fontaine was very satisfied with the attitude of the Arab tycoon, and said: I have a quarter of the blood of the UAE. It has always been my wish to return to the Arab world to shoot movies. This script will become a reflection of the Arab society in my hands. state of art to showcase Arab society and culture to the world.

His tone became a little excited: 8 million US dollars. Mr. Minister, as long as 8 million US dollars, a film representing the achievements of Arab art can be born!

Mansour frowned slightly, and said: Some plots are not very suitable, especially poverty, which is not suitable for Abu Dhabi.

This is artistic processing based on reality. Fontaine seems to have been prepared for a long time, and his words are also convincing: A great film must have criticism and philosophical speculation, so as to ensure its artistry. I plan to bring This work will participate in one of the three major European film festivals, as long as it can be shortlisted for competition, this film will definitely attract the attention of the world, and the name of Abu Dhabi will spread all over the world.

Hearing the three major film festivals in Europe, Mansour was a little moved. The three major film festivals have great influence. Through the three major film festivals, Abu Dhabi can further expand its popularity.

Fontaine looked at Mansur, a little anxious, aren't these Arabs very rich? Not even willing to pay $8 million? Didn't it mean that the Hollywood company raised nearly ten million dollars from the investment bureau in the first half of the year?

As a person of partial UAE descent, Fontaine knew an official of the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority. When the other party went to Paris for business last month, he entertained the official. The other party mentioned the matter of film investment. He was a great inspiration.

He has directed two small productions, and has always wanted to raise funds to shoot a truly influential film, so as to break into the mainstream European film circle.

But investment is too difficult to find, and European directors are more difficult than Hollywood directors in this regard.

The words of the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority official reminded him of a rich and powerful oil tycoon. With the help of that official friend, he had a conversation with Mansour at a cultural exchange event in Saudi Arabia and initially impressed him. A prince in power.

Mansur put down the script and said, Mr. Fontaine, I still have a film project from Hollywood. I will give you an answer after I have considered it comprehensively.

This was very polite, but Fontaine was a little impatient.

On Mansour's private plane, he heard that the Hollywood movie invested by the Investment Bureau will premiere in Abu Dhabi this afternoon.

Official friends also quietly told him that Ronan Anderson, the producer of the film, has brought a new project and plans to continue to cooperate with Abu Dhabi Investment Authority.

Reflecting on Mansour's words, Fontaine thought for a while, and it was not difficult to come to a conclusion, just as Hollywood movies always threaten French movies, that bastard Hollywood producer seems to be competing with him, Mansour's comprehensive consideration means Is it an alternative?

Fontaine's heart is sinking. With those Hollywood bastards who don't understand movies, the possibility of Mansur working with him is much smaller.

How many jerks of the younger generation of Hollywood really understand the art of film? A real French director still has this basic understanding.
