If the investment in "Avatar" can be obtained, it will undoubtedly greatly affect the development of Twentieth Century Fox in the future, and may even lead to the early emergence of Rupert Murdoch's sale of Twentieth Century Fox and the sale of Twentieth Century Fox.

This is undoubtedly an opportunity for the future of Relatalistic Entertainment.

I remember that several sons and daughters of the Murdoch family, for shares and inheritance, later had a lot of trouble.

In the past, Ronan's pattern seemed small, because the big picture had to be based on strength, and too much prospecting of too large a pattern was very likely to lead to an imbalance in mentality, making wrong judgments at the wrong time, which led to wrong decisions.

In a company like Relativity Entertainment, one wrong decision can lead to a fatal mistake.

Now, Relativity Entertainment has a certain strength, and has even reached the position of the second-tier leader in Hollywood, and Ronan's eyes are gradually looking higher and farther away.

Is the scenery at the top of Hollywood better? Can Relativity Entertainment become a top entertainment group?

Many plans that were previously only in the head and on paper can also be prepared.

Every major expansion of any group of companies is prepared years in advance.

After Ronan returned to Los Angeles, he continued to consult secretly with Robert Iger in a conference room for several days, and only the two of them knew the details of the discussion.

The team formed by Robert Iger for the acquisition of Artisan Pictures was not disbanded after the acquisition was completed, but now it has officially become the commercial division of the group company, which is directly under the jurisdiction of Robert Egger.

Everything is being prepared for the future, including temporarily dealing with some of the troubles created by the Big Six.

There are counter-attacks in the defense, but in general, for the time being, it is still mainly defensive.

In the afternoon, Ronan got off work on time, and when he saw that there were too many people crowded in the elevator room, he simply took the fire escape and went down the stairs from the stairs, and soon arrived at the lobby on the first floor.

This slightly outdated office building has witnessed the establishment and development of Relativity Entertainment.

However, the small area and outdated supporting facilities no longer meet the development requirements of Relativity Entertainment Group, and it is also necessary for a large company to have a matching headquarters.

Especially in glamorous Hollywood, this is an indispensable condition.

Not to mention Hollywood's big six, take a look at Glendale DreamWorks Industrial Park.

"Hello, Mr. Anderson. ”

An unfamiliar face suddenly walked over, and was stopped not far in front by Finch.

Ronan thought that as usual, he was the one who was looking for him to sell the script or the film project, and nodded lightly and replied, "Hello." ”

Since the box office explosion of "Pirates of the Caribbean", there have been too many people who have come to him to sell projects and scripts, including cases such as Shonda Remus, but more of them are worthless projects.

Even so, Ronan's attitude towards this part of the population is notoriously good in the circle.

There are too many projects in Hollywood that have existed in obscurity for many years before they become hits, and no one knows if the project in front of him will evoke his memories.

But the man who appeared today is clearly not here to sell the film project.

"Mr. Anderson, can I take you a few minutes?" the man said as quickly as he could, "I'm Cameron Sloan, Mel Gibson's agent." ”

Ronan thought for a moment and said, "You have five minutes." ”

He waved his hand and led the way to the corner of the first floor, where Finch stared at Cameron Sloan and followed.

"Say it, please. Ronan was still polite on the surface.

Cameron Sloan was prepared and said directly: "Regarding the lawsuit between Aiken Pictures and Embassy Pictures, should we settle it as soon as possible? ”

Ronan just looked at Cameron Sloan and didn't say a word.

Cameron Sloan was a little embarrassed, but still looked at Ronan and continued: "It is not good for either of us to drag on the lawsuit......

Connie came down from the upstairs at this time, noticed the situation here, and hurriedly walked over, just in time to hear Cameron Sloan's words, she couldn't help but sneer in her heart, but when she saw that Ronan didn't speak, she couldn't help it, and as usual, stood behind Ronan.

"Mr. Anderson. Cameron Sloan continued: "If we can reach a settlement, we will also make Embassy Pictures ......"

Ronan simply raised his hand and interrupted Cameron Sloan's words: "If you want this matter to end, there is only one possibility, you take the initiative to withdraw the lawsuit, and Mr. Mel Gibson personally publicly apologizes to Embassy Pictures." ”

"I ......," Cameron Sloan's words all gagged in his mouth.

If he can convince Mel Gibson, why should he come here and jump up and down.

In some ways, Cameron Sloan is a qualified agent, but under the rules of the Hollywood industry, he is also quite helpless to meet an unusually strong and irascible client like Mel Gibson.

Ronan didn't bother to say anything more, nodded lightly at Cameron Sloan, and left directly.

Connie hurriedly followed and asked in a low voice, "Where is the lawsuit?"

"Follow the normal procedure. Ronan didn't pay much attention: "If possible, put it off." ”

Connie didn't understand what Ronan meant, shouldn't this kind of thing be solved sooner?

Ronan said simply: "With Mel Gibson's personality, the success of "The Passion of the Christ" will make him even more inflated, some people have been attacking this movie and Mel Gibson himself, with Mel Gibson's character, how can he bear it? Wait, Mel Gibson's violent temper and that big mouth will cause trouble sooner or later, and then we don't have to bother to do it, some people will clean him up." ”

Connie knew who Ronan was talking about, and asked, "Does Mel Gibson really dare?"

Some things, even if you really think so, as long as you don't say it publicly, there is not much trouble, but once you say it, in today's social environment, what is the blame that a public figure faces?

Ronan said lightly: "You specifically know about Mel Gibson's situation, what is he like drinking?"

"It's a big mouth. Connie specifically investigated the situation because of this lawsuit: "After drinking, I thought I could swallow the Pacific Ocean with a big mouth. ”

Ronan smiled and said, "Okay, let's go home and rest." ”

It seems that Mel Gibson used his big mouth to make a mess of himself in the past two years, and he couldn't turn over for more than ten years.

A person like Mel Gibson, who is just a gun that has been instigated, and does not need to focus on him at all, will not be long before such a person will jump out and die.

Even moving the Himalayas over and pressing on Mel Gibson could not stop him from dying.

This kind of person does not say what he really thinks in his heart, and he will not close his eyes even if he dies.

Frankly, Mel Gibson is too easy to deal with compared to his superficial rivals.

At the end of March, James Cameron's representative, Ellie Smith, returned to Los Angeles and joined Embassy Pictures under the leadership of Connie, and the two sides officially began negotiations on the release of "Alien of the Deep".

The news spread quickly, and no one, including Twentieth Century Fox, paid much attention to it, after all, it was just a documentary.

Even if it's dressed in 3D, it's still a documentary.

Ronan did not offer unrealistic terms of cooperation because of James Cameron, and the release negotiations went according to normal procedures.

With the first cooperation, it will be much smoother to talk later.

In addition, along with Ellie Smith, there is also an IMAX executive, named Richard Golfon.

The current IMAX company is not in the future, although it has made technical improvements with James Cameron, but in fact, IMAX technology has not really been accepted by Hollywood, far from the mainstream production projection technology, IMAX company is doing a lot of promotion work, if you want to promote this technology, first of all, you must have enough film sources, those converted types of films, can not give full play to the advantages of IMAX technology.

IMAX technology has been around for many years, and in the past it could only be circulated in planetariums and documentaries, IMAX knew very well that if they wanted to promote this technology, Hollywood was the level they had to conquer, and if they wanted to get through Hollywood, production companies, producers and big directors were very important.

Work has to be done by one company at a time, and Relativity Entertainment is one of the main PR targets of IMAX.

In recent years, IMAX has sponsored several other projects, none of which have become blockbusters, and although the IMAX theater chain has begun construction, there is a lack of IMAX movies that are good enough to make IMAX famous around the world.

Ronan very simply introduced Richard Gerfon to Christopher Nolan.

At one time, Christopher Nolan was one of the biggest proponents of IMAX technology.

Filmed and produced using IMAX technology, which is only good for The Dark Knight, and in the style of Christopher Nolan, it certainly won't use 3D technology.

3D technology can damage the light and is not very suitable for intense action graphics, and most of the scenes in The Dark Knight take place at night, and 3D technology is completely unsuitable.

In the former "Batman v Superman", the dark 3D effect has become the super groove of the film like "Martha".

As for how Christopher Nolan talks with IMAX, Ronan did not directly interfere, although this is a project led by Warner Bros., as long as "Batman: Time to War" is successful, Christopher Nolan will definitely get a part of the voice in "The Dark Knight".

However, IMAX technology also has drawbacks, the most typical is that IMAX cameras are too heavy and bulky, and quite a lot of lenses, especially scenes with relatively complex environments, will be very inconvenient to shoot.

In April, Marvel Comics, under the persuasion of Robert Lee, asked Twentieth Century Fox to return to the negotiating table to discuss the film division of "X-Men" and "Fantastic Four".

The third film released by Embassy Pictures is also about to be released.
