Chapter 148： Multi-action

"Things didn't go well?" Tom Cruise's voice came over the phone: "Ronan, is there another company that wants to recruit Allen?"

Ronan thought for a while, and said to the phone: "Yes. The people from DreamWorks also came to London..."

Because he needed Tom Cruise's help, he gave a brief overview of the matter.

Tom Cruise immediately understood why Ronan made this call and said: "I can't help in this matter. I can't interfere with Allen's choice. This is disrespect for friends. I hope you can understand Ronan. "

Ronan was prepared and said: "Tom, you also know that the Big Three of DreamWorks has been fighting increasingly fiercely in the past two years. Alan-Albert joining DreamWorks is very likely to become a victim of the internal struggle of the company. With all in my hands, the company will not be so complicated, and it will be more conducive to the development of newcomers."

Of course these words are all false. Ronan only temporarily held Tom Cruise, don't let him hang up.

If Tom Cruise still refuses, then basically nothing.

"Although I have never directly cooperated with DreamWorks and Spielberg." Tom Cruise did not directly refuse: "But once this kind of thing spreads, it will affect my relationship with Spielberg, which is very important to me. unfavorable."

The implication is more obvious. Ronan can of course hear it and said: "Tom, you can make a few phone calls to persuade Mr. Albert from the side. No one else will know."

If you want such a superstar to help, you must pay the labor fee. Ronan had to prepare before he called. When he met at the last party, Tom Cruise specifically mentioned it to him.

This is the labor fee that Ronan prepared.

However, to help pay for this kind of thing, in the face of a very compelling Hollywood superstar, I can't say it directly. Isn't that the right side?

Ronan has already thought about his words: "By the way, Tom, besides Mr. Albert, I have one more thing I need your help."

Tom Cruise on the phone frowned. It seems that he and Ronan Anderson don’t have such a deep friendship, right? This person is so thick-skinned, he just made a phone call for help, but the result is not over.

If I knew long ago, I shouldn't have made that call.

"My company, Shahai Entertainment, is preparing a sequel to the "Human Removal Project"..."

Originally, Tom Cruise had the urge to hang up. Hearing the name "Human Removal Project", he immediately became interested, his ears were erected, and he caught the voice on the other side of the phone: "I have a little difficulty in capital turnover now. With a budget of US$6 million, there is still a funding gap of US$1 million."

Tom Cruise laughed: "A little question." His thoughts changed sharply: "Is 1 million dollars enough? I happen to have an idle fund in my hand, about 3 million dollars..."

Ronan changed his hand to hold the phone. He has been in the business for nearly two decades, and he also has a film company. Even if he was semi-literate before, Tom Cruise has also worked out.

This is half of the investment in "Human Removal Project 2". Like the joint investment in the industry, half of the investment basically means sharing half of the income.

Tom Cruise made a price, and there was talk of this matter. Ronan saw it with him and finally determined that Tom Cruise’s company would inject 1.5 million US dollars into the "Human Removal Project 2" project.

The two finalized the investment, and the details will naturally be discussed by someone in the company.

After finishing the call with Ronan, Tom Cruise was quite satisfied with this business. This kind of small transaction involving only a few people, as long as you pay a little attention, it will not spread. Even if it spreads, Spielberg and Dream The factory can't do anything to him either.

Tom Cruise knows very well that Paramount Pictures is standing behind him!

After thinking for a while, he first called the top of the church and asked the church people to put pressure on Alan Albert. After waiting for a while, he called Alan Albert to the church. In the name of, persuaded Alan Albert to choose Ronan Anderson’s Embassy Pictures.

Even if DreamWorks and Spielberg learn about it in the future, this is also the pot of Scientology. Tom Cruise is just a poor creature controlled by Scientology.

Alan Albert also said that he would seriously consider Ronan’s invitation.

London, Ronan made an appointment with Danny Donald alone, and specially chose London Chinatown where Danny Donald grew up.

In the private room of the tea house, Ronan's practice of washing and brewing tea made Danny Donald's eyes on the opposite side almost fall off.

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

Danny Donald raised his eyebrows unconsciously, picked up the small tea cup, took a sip, and then said: "Mr. Anderson can speak Chinese?"

Ronan smiled and said in Chinese, "I can speak some." His Mandarin is fairly standard: "When I was young, I traveled to the East and learned a little bit."

Although Danny Donald is a second-generation immigrant, he speaks Chinese quite well: “It’s rare that you can speak Chinese so fluently here.”

"I mainly like the culture over there." Ronan said with a smile: "The accumulation of five thousand years of civilization, the United States is incomparable to upstarts."

Danny Donald showed a look of recollection: "I followed my mother back several times when I was a teenager. Three years ago, because of work, I passed by over there, and I went to take a look..."

Ronan has investigated Danny Donald in detail, and naturally knows his background, otherwise he would not choose to meet in such a place.

Danny Donald asked suddenly: "Mr. Anderson

Student likes oriental culture very much? "

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

Danny Donald nodded slightly: "The culture of every nation is a treasure of the world."

"Yeah." Ronan stretched in his own direction: "Just like the film industry in this world, colorful films make up this wonderful world."

He continued: "In my opinion, films from all over the world should be interoperable. Take my relativistic 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. Arabs, Africans, whites, Asians, and Latinos can all be the 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 a very left-handed mind.

The boss of the company is leaning to the left, which can easily drive the overall atmosphere of the company to the left.

Ronan filled Danny Donald with a cup of tea again, and said in Chinese: "Have you seen the "Human Removal Project" that I made? And "Ace Agent" which will be released on Thanksgiving this year? These two movies, reaction These are the concepts I just mentioned."

Not to mention, after getting the information from Ronan, Danny Donald specifically found several signature movies under Relativity Entertainment and browsed it. The main actors are really from all ethnic groups.

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

Ronan drank the water in his cup, and said: "The director of "Human Removal Project" is also the director of "Reaper Is Coming" James Huang. There is a Chinese name called Huang Yiyu. He is a generation of immigrants who cooperated with me. I am very happy. After directing these two films in succession, I am about to work with me on "Human Removal Project 2."

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

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

"Mr. Anderson, you are great." Danny Donald suddenly smiled and said, "Better than all the young people I have ever met."

Ronan smiled: "I'm just explaining some facts."

All of what he said are true, without false elements.

I can only say that fortunately, I know the future direction of development, knowing that the road to the left will become more and more spacious.

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

Ronan didn’t directly attack DreamWorks. It’s not time yet. He started tea art with Danny Donald, who likes to drink tea. Fortunately, he had contact with him in his previous life. Where he didn’t understand, his skin was now used as a disguise. It will not be embarrassing.

It’s probably been a long time since no one talked to him about this. Danny Donald told Ronan a lot about tea art.

Later, the two talked about the football game. They probably had a good impression of Ronan. Danny Donald revealed that he and Alan Albert will go to Manchester to watch the football during the Christmas holidays and will stay. About a week.

Until the sky turned dark, the two men came into contact with this interview and each left Chinatown in London.

Ronan then contacted Chris. Chris had already reported to Gustafson. Sony Columbia had considerable doubts that DreamWorks might have overseas distribution channels. According to Chris’ phone call~www.novelhall .com~ Gustafson is already contacting people from other companies.

According to the information obtained, Ronan also made adjustments in due course.

Danny Donald has found Alan Albert, and Alan Albert has just concluded talks 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 feel it clearly." He didn't get entangled in this aspect, and asked, "How's the talk?"

"He set the price on behalf of DreamWorks." Allen Albert said: "My annual salary is 500,000 US dollars, your annual salary is 200,000 US dollars, and there is a year-end bonus based on the performance of the movie released."

The salary is 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 quotation. Allen, you have also read the information. 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."

The two discussed in a low voice.

The sky was completely dark, Albert Hoffman left the hotel he was staying in and went to the bar he frequented again. Just sitting in front of the bar, a **** girl approached him.
