Anyone who knows Maple Leaf Pictures will not doubt their strength in terms of funding, and Ronan has always believed that Ryan Kavanaugh and David Ellison are the most suitable candidates to take over.

Not only do they have money, but they also desperately want to make a name for themselves in Hollywood.

"I believe in your strength. Ronan said, "This is indeed an opportunity for you. ”

Perhaps it was all done in front of the work, and a series of foreshadowing made before played a role, and the two of them became interested in Disney without waiting for Ronan to sell it.

Ryan Kavanaugh said: "Hollywood's traditional power has long been carved up, and it's too hard to find a chance to get in, and if we miss Disney, we may not be able to wait for the next one." ”

David Ellison was younger and more direct: "Ronan, since you're interested in selling that portion of Disney, why don't you prioritize us?"

Ronan looked seriously thoughtful: "This is not a small business, I believe in you more than the unfamiliar Taravis Knight." ”

Ryan Kavanaugh smiled and said, "Ronan, what do you want? ”

"Truth be told, I'm representing more than relativistic entertainment. The two have mentioned it before, and Ronan also said bluntly: "There are more than 12% of Disney shares in total, and I promised them that I will advance and retreat with them, with Disney's current stock price, the total value of this part of the shares reaches 3.5 billion US dollars." ”

Ryan Kavanaugh has the air of a top tycoon: "Money is not an issue for me and David. ”

David Ellison said: "In two weeks at the earliest, Maple Leaf Pictures can raise $3 billion. ”

Ronan knew very well that compared to cash, the level of these two trenches was no worse than that of relativistic entertainment.

"But there's a point. Ryan Kavanaugh is rich, but he doesn't mess around: "Disney's stock price is a bit inflated at the moment......"

Ronan directly raised his hand to interrupt him: "Ryan, do you know about Taravis-Knight's bid? He is willing to buy this stake at a 10% premium to the stock price at the time of the transaction." ”

He smiled and said, "It's not just the equity of Relativity Entertainment, but also the many partners, and I can't sell it at a low price for personal reasons." Otherwise, we will not be able to explain to our partners. ”

Ryan Kavanaugh and David Ellison exchanged glances, both seemingly considering Ronan's words.

Ronan continued: "That's more than 12 percent of the shares, and if the deal goes through, Maple Leaf Pictures will become Disney's largest shareholder, and it's easy to get on the board. ”

Ryan Kavanaugh couldn't help but say: "The largest shareholder ......"

This temptation is too great, because these capitals not only mean that Maple Leaf Pictures has the qualifications to enter the game, but also represents a considerable right to speak.

David Ellison said, "Ronan, those partners you promise to represent?"

"I promise you, the power of attorney will come in from New York soon," Ronan said. ”

Ryan Kavanaugh was impressed by the equity and had doubts about the price, saying: "The price is ...... like this"

Ronan answered, "I don't have to lie, you can ask Taravis Knight for confirmation of this." If you guys have doubts about the price, I can only choose someone else. ”

He was not quick to speak: "The financial industry predicts that Disney's stock price will continue to rise. ”

Once Walt Disney, Ronan vaguely remembered that when Robert Iger first took office, the market value exceeded $40 billion.

But now Disney, even if the stock price rises sharply, the total market value is less than $35 billion.

Strictly speaking, this has nothing to do with relativistic entertainment.

Without the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, the internal strife has intensified, and Pixar Studios has deliberately delayed the production of animated feature films, etc., all of which have seriously affected Disney's performance, resulting in the stock price being far less than it once was.

"Wait. Ryan Kavanaugh said: "The main thing is that Disney is more chaotic right now. ”

Ronan suddenly laughed: "Ryan, David, if it's a stable company, such as Relativity Entertainment, how much voice can you fight for when you join it, and how much can you do? Frankly speaking, you Maple Leaf Pictures just want to be the majority shareholder of Disney!"

This said to the hearts of Ryan Kavanaugh and David Ellison, how could a promising young man like them be only willing to be a major shareholder of Disney?

Ronan continued: "If you become the largest shareholder of any other company, it will be hellish to control the company. But Disney is different, Disney is currently very chaotic, with endless internal contradictions, led by Michael Eisner and Roy Disney. This is your chance!"

David Ellison seemed to be moved by Ronan's words, after all, this is a very simple truth, just like their situation in Hollywood, if it is a stable company, new entrants are bound to be rejected by inherent forces, but chaotic companies can give outsiders countless opportunities.

Ryan Kavanano pulled David Ellison and took the initiative to answer: "Ronan, what if we do become a shareholder of Disney?"

Ronan said calmly: "Support Michael Eisner, let Disney continue the chaos, I believe that with your and David's vision and ability, you will definitely be able to find opportunities in the chaos and seize opportunities." ”

"Isn't it okay to support Roy Disney?" asked David Ellison.

"Roy Disney represents the old-fashioned Disney faction that doesn't welcome new entrants, and even if they do, they will ostracize later," Ronan said. And once Roy Disney wins, Disney may calm down......"

Ryan Kavanaugh has put himself in the trap: "A smooth Disney is not good for Maple Leaf Pictures. Michael Eisner will remain in the position of chairman and CEO, and the two major Disney factions will continue to fight among themselves. ”

Ronan nodded slightly: "That's true." ”

These words do not need to be disguised, as long as Maple Leaf Pictures becomes the largest shareholder of Disney, it will evolve into reality, but it is not difficult for anyone with a little business acumen to understand.

Ryan Kavanaugh and David Ellison don't want to be just shareholders and have to face this situation.

The two exchanged a look, and Ryan Kavanaugh said, "Ronan, please give us two days to think about it, be sure to wait for us for two days, and on the morning of the third day, David and I will give you a clear answer." ”

Ronan thought for a while and said, "Yes, as a friend, I can promise that I will not make an agreement with anyone in the past two days. ”

Ryan Kavanaugh and David Ellison stood up and shook hands with Ronan one by one, did not go to the premiere of "Hurricane Rescue 2" again, and left directly.

The two got out of the Emirates Rock Theater and got into the same car.

"It's a great opportunity. David Ellison couldn't wait.

"I know. Although Ryan Kavanaugh's investment vision was a bit problematic, which led to the bankruptcy of the previous hedge fund, Disney's related matters are simple and clear, and he still sees it very clearly: "I think Ronan Anderson came to us today for this purpose. ”

David Ellison asked, "You're saying that Ronan Anderson has ulterior motives?"

Ryan Kavanaugh pondered for a moment and said, "Even if it's a pit, can you resist jumping into it?"

David Ellison said: "This is probably the only opportunity we have to get our hands on the Big Six. ”

Ryan Kavanaugh sighed: "Ronan Anderson has long seen us clearly and knows that we can't say no, and we won't refuse. ”

Ronan entered the theater and sat down next to Robert Iger.

Robert Iger immediately asked in a low voice, "How's the talk?"

"It's about the same as expected. Ronan also lowered his voice: "How can two ambitious and well-funded people refuse the opportunity to really show their skills in Hollywood?"

Robert Iger said: "It does look like there's an opportunity to take control of a big company. ”

Ronan said: "The biggest disagreement is probably the price, but I've made it clear to them that Taravis-Knight's offer shouldn't be lower than 10 percent for Maple Leaf Pictures. Bob, organize the manpower and prepare to negotiate secretly with Maple Leaf Pictures. ”

Robert Iger said with a smile: "The manpower has been ready for a long time, just waiting for the good news from your side." ”

After this contact with Ryan Kavanaugh and David Ellison, Ronan is more confident: "There will be no big surprises. ”

The two whispered for a while, and Ronan's energy gradually shifted to the movies shown on the big screen.

The plot and the like, in fact, are not much different from the first part, but this time the daughter needs to save the father, and then the father will save the daughter again.

In addition to the family relationship between the daughter and the father, the biggest attraction of the film is still the never-ending and tense action scenes.

Due to his appearance many years in advance, Liam Neeson is not old enough to be unable to move, and since the first part of "Hurricane Rescue", this retired agent with fatherly love has successively filmed action films such as "Batman: Time to War", and has always maintained physical training, and his action shots are extremely complete.

Of course, like the first part, the villains are basically weak chickens.

Brian kills and kills all the way, dealing with the so-called gangsters like chopping melons and vegetables.

Probably this is also a kind of alternative realism, gangsters who have not undergone professional training can never become god-like opponents.

Although the film has many shortcomings, it is a very interesting commercial movie.

As long as commercial success continues, Liam Neeson's road to salvation is just beginning.

The screenwriting department of Shahai Entertainment has created several rescue-themed films, which can be picked by Liam Neeson.

Even Liam Neeson wants to go to space to save astronauts.

In short, as long as Liam Neeson is willing to cooperate, he can save people, save the sky, save the air!
