Chapter 391： good teacher

As night fell, and the lights in Los Angeles began to shine, the city began its most dynamic moment.

A black Bentley elegantly drove out of Sunset Boulevard and came to the entrance of the Peninsula Hotel between West Hollywood and Santa Monica. The waiter came and opened the door for the first time. Ronan stepped on the short red carpet under his feet and passed through A grand porch full of Renaissance style entered the hotel lobby.

"Mr. Anderson." Someone came to lead the way: "Please go here."

Through a long corridor, Ronan entered the huge banquet hall and immediately saw a number of acquaintances.

Brian Lord, an important partner of CAA, was the first to greet him. After Ronan shook his hand, he greeted other senior figures in CAA one by one.

Both parties have cooperated on multiple film and television projects, and both are familiar with each other.

Brian Lord took Ronan to the side and said: "The trial broadcast of "Grey Intern" on ABC TV has been very effective. ABC TV will officially book the first season with you soon.

Nicole Kidman, who passed by, took the initiative to greet her. Ronan shook hands with her and greeted her. When Nicole Kidman left, he said, "Shahai Entertainment’s production funds are already in place. Sanda next week. The shooting starts and the shooting will be completed in August without delaying the start of the fall season."

Before the broadcast, the first season will certainly not be completed, but it is not uncommon for American TV shows to be produced while being broadcast.

Brian Lord added: "I will try to get a good time for the show, and try to put it on Friday night."

CAA is a package service provider, Ronan is not polite, and said, "Brian, then you can be more concerned."

Brian Lord smiled and said, "It should be."

He made a please gesture: "Ronan, I will introduce you a few newly signed star clients."

An agent like Brian Lord, who is in charge of a large team, and the clients that the entire team is in charge of, is actually under his control.

Under each big broker, there are dozens of small brokers and broker assistants who are responsible for specific execution. This is a team.

So there is no situation that can't be brought. Just like Ronan, the boss of a film company, the big agent is not a hands-on person.

Brian Lord brought Ronan to the circle of his team. Ronan first saw Anne Hathaway, she was chatting softly with Michelle Williams, who had worked with Shahai Entertainment.

"You should be familiar with these two, I won't introduce them." Brian Lord waited alone.

"Hi, Ronan, good evening." Michelle Williams took the initiative to come over and shook Ronan.

Ronan smiled and nodded: "Good evening, Misha."

Then he looked at Anne Hathaway and said, "What's the matter, Anne? Don't you know me?"

Anne Hathaway seemed a little emotional: "I just didn't expect to meet you here."

Ronan said calmly, "I didn't expect it either."

Michelle Williams looked at Ronan first, and then at Anne Hathaway. She seemed to understand something, and found an excuse to leave here.

Anne Hathaway glanced at Ronan and whispered: "It's been so long, you haven't had a call."

"Sorry." Ronan looked very sincere: "It's my fault."

He smiled and said: "You went overseas to shoot "Summer in Jeans", I went to East Asia, and it was indeed a bit far away. You are back, why don't you tell me?"

Although Anne Hathaway was a bit rough, she knew that there were some things she couldn't care about, and said: "I am back to renew the contract with CAA, and I will leave tomorrow afternoon."

Ronan stretched out his hand, and Anne Hathaway placed her hand in his palm tacitly.

"Then you have time tonight?" Ronan took Anne Hathaway's hand and said, "Don't stay at the hotel tonight. It's not convenient. Go to me."

Anne Hathaway couldn't refuse, and didn't want to refuse, and said, "Well then, tomorrow you will let the driver take me to the airport."

She saw Brian Lord coming over to find Ronan and said, "I'll talk to Misha for a while, Brian may have something to do with you."

Ronan looked like a good man: "I will come to you when I'm done."

Anne Hathaway took out her hand and walked towards where Michelle Williams was.

Recently, the crew of Michelle Williams was out in the same area as the crew of "Jeans of Summer". Anne Hathaway and Michelle Williams quickly became friends.

Many friendships in Hollywood, like love, tend to come very fast and fierce.

Brian Lord came to Ronan and said: "I have signed two directors recently. I will take you to meet the female director. She has a project in her hands. Maybe you can reach a cooperation."

Ronan followed Brian Lord and had already seen the female director, and seeing it was Sofia Coppola, he couldn't help being a little curious about the other one: "There is another male director?"

Brian Lord said: "He promised to come tonight, and it hasn't arrived yet."

Ronan looked forward: "Let me meet Miss Coppola first."

"Hi, Sofia." Bryan Lord came to Sofia Coppola and said, "I want to introduce you a friend."

He looked at Ronan and said: "This is Ronan, the owner of Relativity Entertainment, and a very amazing producer. Ronan, this is Sophia, a talented director."

Ronan shook hands and greeted Sofia Coppola. Although he hadn't seen it before, the Hollywood circle was not big, and they all heard each other's names.

Brian Lord is an agent, and his most important job is to bridge the gap between clients and film companies. After Ronan and Sofia Coppola talked a few words, they said: "Sophia, your project is not looking for investment. Fang and distributor? Ronan has both a production company and a distribution company. I think you can try to cooperate."

Ronan thought for a while and asked directly, "Miss Coppola, can you know what projects you have?"

Sophia Coppola smiled and said: "A romance film about an extramarital relationship between an old man and a young woman in Tokyo."

Hearing this, Ronan could roughly guess that it should be the best "Lost in Tokyo" filmed in Sofia Coppola's directorial career.

Brian Lord said at the right time: "I have read the script, it is very good."

Ronan nodded, but didn't answer immediately.

Sophia Coppola added: "The inspiration for the story came from my travels in Tokyo in my 20s. That experience gave me many ideas. For example, I felt that when I suddenly met my fellow villagers in a foreign country, I often had a wonderful sense of intimacy and even Excited, and at the same time I found that in an unfamiliar environment, it is easy to fall into the inspection and thinking of life at midnight.

Ronan knows very well that this will be a love literary film.

Sophia added: "I, I hope to express my love and nostalgia through this movie. In my opinion, life will always experience such a lost time, and there will be wonderful encounters, which are not eternal, but they will be indelible to life Impact."

She seems to be adding a bargaining chip for herself: "I have convinced Bill Murray to play the leading role."

Ronan nodded and asked, "Do you want to issue cooperation or invest?"

Sophia Coppola shrugged slightly: "I was in contact with Miramax, but Harvey Weinstein... Well, you know that person, I met him once, the impression is too bad, I don’t like it. He, so I will never cooperate with him."

Switching to some other junior directors are all seeking to cooperate with Harvey Weinstein, but Sofia Coppola does have the capital to reject Harvey Weinstein.

One father was Francis Coppola, and the godfather was George Lucas’ female director, who had capricious power.

Ronan asked again: "Does your project still need investment?"

"If you want to invest, I welcome it." Sophia Coppola clearly believes in Brian Lord: "This film is not much invested, and $4 million is enough."

Ronan was a little curious: "You can't find investment?"

Sophia Coppola said directly: "Although someone has prepared me $4 million, I think the investment I've drawn is more meaningful."

Ronan understood that this should be a problem involving the relationship between father and daughter, and the ambitious daughter did not want to continue to receive assistance from his father.

No way, Sofia Coppola has a high starting point in this industry, and she can star in "The Godfather" when she is breastfeeding...

"Issuance and investment are all right." Ronan is still more cautious: "But I need to look at the script first."

Sophia Coppola responded: "Tomorrow I will send someone to your company."

Here, Ronan, Brian Lord and Sofia Coppola are still discussing the movie.

On the other side, Anne Hathaway and Michelle Williams are whispering.

"There is a problem between you and Ronan?" Michelle Williams looked at Ronan and asked in a low voice, "Anne, didn't you say that the relationship between you was very hot last time?"

Anne Hathaway lowered her voice: "I think he is losing interest in me Michelle Williams seems to be experienced: "When dealing with these producers, we must have a proper appetite. "She passed on the experience: "You can't let him succeed all at once, even if you have a relationship, you must be a little reserved and keep a little. "

Anne Hathaway asked for advice: "How to do it?"

"Whenever his interest fades, you unlock a new position." Michelle Williams is a good teacher: "After a long time, you unlock a new position."

She looked at Anne Hathaway's big mouth: "For example, here or elsewhere. Controlling the frequency and rhythm can make him fall on you for a long time."

Anne Hathaway froze for a moment, and muttered: "The problem is that I have used all the postures and parts I can think of. What can I do?"

Michelle Williams felt a deep sense of powerlessness: "Annie, you are not saved."
