Chapter 892： Verify

Hearing Ronan's words, Michael Eisner suddenly had an unfavorable premonition. Is it possible that Disney will have a third party in addition to him and Roy Disney?

Ronan and Robert Iger have made sufficient preparations, and have thoroughly analyzed Michael Eisner and Roy Disney. At this moment, they can guess his thoughts somewhat, and said: "There are some things and some things, and there is no need to hide them. In order to ensure the investment interests of Relativity Entertainment, I have reached an agreement with some investors."

Michael Eisner knew that the investor Ronan said must be a shareholder of Disney, and asked, "Who is there?"

"Goldman Sachs, Credit Suisse..." Ronan whispered seven names.

"You are united together?" Michael Eisner would not be gullible, and he was a little bit heartbroken: "Are you a business man, are you united with such a vampire?"

Ronan said calmly: "It's just that there are common interests."

Michael Eisner thought about it. If Ronan said it was true, the equity he could directly affect would reach 12%.

This is already a very powerful force. After all, as long as half of the shareholders cast a vote of no confidence on the resolution, according to Disney's procedures, he must step down.

Michael Eisner still doesn't believe it: "They invested in Disney. They were all introduced by me back then. I have been in contact with them before. They are more inclined to support Roy Disney."

"But they also don't believe that Roy Disney can lead Disney out of the current predicament." Ronan directly took out Michael Eisner's words: "However, I persuaded them. Because they believe in my vision and vision in this industry. Ability, they are willing to follow in the footsteps of successful people."

Michael Eisner suddenly realized that he was not only the boss of Relativity Entertainment, but also the person with the best vision and ability in the Hollywood industry.

Ronan continued: "If there is not so much support, why does Roy-Disney offer generous terms with respect to the shares of Relativity Entertainment?"

Thinking about the conditions Ronan said before, and then thinking about the current situation, Michael Eisner felt that this might not be just a rhetoric.

For the support of such a large force, Roy Disney must pay a certain price.

"You..." Michael Eisner stared at Ronan: "What do you want?"

Ronan waved his hand, looking particularly open and honest: "Michael, I'm not in a hurry to talk, you can go to verify that these investors were all introduced by you back then, and it is not difficult to get in touch with them."

Hearing these words, Michael Eisner believed a little bit in his heart.

Because it's true or false, you can tell at a glance.

Michael Eisner said directly: "Ronan, come here today." He has to check before he can decide what to do next: "You will stay in Chicago for the time being?"

Ronan nodded slightly: "I will be in Chicago in the last few days."

Michael Eisner stood up: "We'll meet again another day."

Ronan stood up and shook his hand: "You have my contact information, you can call me at any time."

Before leaving, Michael Eisner emphasized once again: "Ronan, Disney was developed under my leadership after all."

Ronan didn't say much, and kept sending Michael Eisner out of the reception room.

Michael Eisner came to the underground parking lot. After getting in the car, he waited for the car to drive onto the highway, took out his mobile phone, looked up a few numbers, and started calling.

Returning to the reception room, Ronan stood in front of the window and looked for a while, took out his mobile phone, and dialed Robert Iger's number.

"Is there any problem in New York?" Ronan asked.

"Don't worry." Robert Iger's confident voice came from the earpiece: "It's already coordinated. They only need to deal with Michael Eisner verbally. No actual action is required. However, there is one thing I want. As a reminder, if our plan does not go well, they will deny what they said at any time and continue to choose the original plan."

Ronan said, "The overall situation on my side is going well. Don't forget, I have already found someone to take over for them, including us."

Robert Iger said: "They are very satisfied with it."

"There are not many people who are rich and want to enter Hollywood." Ronan said softly: "If they miss this opportunity, they can only wait for Disney to slowly appreciate. Who can guarantee that even if Roy Disney wins, it will bring Disney's meeting Is it success?"

This is actually the place that makes some centrist shareholders hesitate the most, because Roy Disney is really mediocre in terms of operating capabilities.

Robert Iger said: "Roy Disney asked me to meet in the afternoon."

Ronan said: "Let's deal with him first. We have used him to force Michael Eisner to the point where he has to make a choice."

The two said a few more words, and Robert Iger said: "We keep in touch."

When the phone was hung up, Ronan sat in the reception room, thinking quietly for a long time, especially the risk control.

Wherever business investment and operation are possible, there is no risk? Along with opportunities, there will always be the option of risk.

Ronan considers, if it really fails, how to end it, so that Relativity Entertainment can minimize the loss.

Perhaps he is too cautious. Before considering success, he must first predict whether the consequences of failure are bearable.

In case of failure, what is the most likely outcome? Roy Disney drove away Michael Eisner, because he couldn't get back the copyright of the feature film of Pixar Animation Studios, which caused Steve Jobs to tear up the agreement and wanted to turn what he got from Disney into the flower in the mirror. Then the funds from the Pacific Investment Foundation were locked up because they became Disney's equity...

Such consequences can be tolerated by Relativity Entertainment, but the expansion speed will be greatly delayed.

Moreover, the shares of Disney won't be without the possibility of appreciation in the future.

At noon, Ronan left the reception room, had lunch in the hotel, and then went to the crew.

The "Dark Knight" crew has officially started filming, and he is now in Chicago, and he must always pay attention to it appropriately.

Especially Christopher Nolan, Ronan and him, whether it is business cooperation or personal friendship, get along very well.

"It is my luck to have the full support of you and Relativity Entertainment."

On the temporarily closed streets, taking advantage of the long break between filming of the crew, Christopher Nolan communicated with Ronan for a while: "Ronan, without you, I could not have so much power in the crew."

Ronan smiled and said, "This is what you won with your ability and business performance."

Christopher Nolan asked suddenly: "Will we continue to cooperate?"

Ronan said without hesitation: "Of course, as long as you are willing, we can cooperate for a long time."

"Between "The Dark Knight" and the third one, I plan to make another movie." Christopher Nolan said simply: "I have a preliminary idea. It is probably a sci-fi type, and the investment may be high."

Ronan thought of a name, on the surface calmly, said: "I believe in your ability and strength, and Relativity Entertainment and I will support you."

Unlike other directors, Ronan knows very well that Christopher Nolan has always been a director with very strong commercial attributes.

Christopher Nolan said: "I have decided that I will let Jonathan write the script first and show it to you as soon as it is finished."

Ronan nodded slightly: "Yes." After thinking about it, he still asked, "Can you tell me what you think?"

Christopher Nolan didn't hide it, saying, "It's probably about dreams and theft."

Ronan instantly understood that there should be nothing wrong with the previous commercial masterpiece "Inception."

After chatting for a while, Christopher Nolan went to prepare for the shooting of the next scene. Ronan stood in the rest area and watched silently.

The previous "Inception" is undoubtedly a big success, regardless of word of mouth or box office, it can be described as an explosion.

Remember that the actor is Leonardo DiCaprio.

However, Relativity Entertainment has never had any cooperation between Leonardo. If Shahai Entertainment invests in filming "Inception", it will definitely change a actor.

Actors, or superstar actors of the same level as Leonardo, Relativity Entertainment is also easy to find.

Several yellow long-nosed school buses entered the set. Ronan saw Heath Ledger wearing a clown mask. The Australian actor looked a lot thinner and had an inexplicable change in temperament.

The crew signed strict restrictions with Heath Ledger, so there is no need to worry about him making trouble during filming.

In addition, the "Dark Knight" crew also hired professional psychological counselors for the main actors according to Ronan's suggestion.

According to the script, both Joker and Batman have serious psychological problems.

Ronan doesn't want to see the actors have problems while working on the crew.

Relatively speaking, Christian Bale’s adjustment ability is better, but he has also reacted in the early stage, and he is somewhat dissatisfied with the role setting After all, from the protagonist to the actual supporting role, even the protagonist’s halo Give another character, there will be more or less complaints.

Don't worry Ronan, Christopher Nolan has already convinced Christian Bale.

Anyway, this is a Batman movie after all.

Filming started quickly and went quite smoothly. After a scene was filmed, with the plot set to open and hang the clown, half of the afternoon passed unconsciously.

Towards four o'clock in the afternoon, Connie received a call and walked over and said: "Michael Eisner's assistant called and asked to continue meeting at the hotel tomorrow morning."

Ronan waved his hand: "Yes."

Connie called back. Ronan was just about to leave, and Charles Rowan, the producer representing Warner Bros., suddenly came to him.

"Do you have time, Ronan." Charles Rowan said directly: "I want to talk to you about Batman Part 3."
