In the afternoon of the same day, the project information of Gore Verbinsky's new project "The Weather Forecaster" was transferred from Shahai Entertainment to Ronan's office along with some other delivery projects.

With the continuous success of Shahai Entertainment, there are also directors and actors who were originally unknown to succeed in their cooperation with Shahai Entertainment, and more people have begun to regard Shahai Entertainment as an investment choice like the six major companies.

Even, because of the rumors that Shahai Entertainment and Ronan so-called attach importance to newcomers, many directors and producers take Shahai Entertainment as their first choice.

Every month, there are hundreds of scripts submitted to Shahai Entertainment, and there are at least dozens of directors and producers who come to seek investment with projects.

Most of them are worthless, like scripts and the like, and the elimination rate is not 100 percent, but it is also 99.9 percent.

Ronan first read Gore Verbinski's The Weather Forecaster, first read the script, then the project proposal, and the copy of the contract with Nicolas Cage.

In the hands of others, this actor contract plus the director is Gore Verbinski, it will be very convincing, but on Ronan's side, the red light is directly on.

Ronan went to read the scripts that were sent to Shahai Entertainment, and as in the past, most of them were worthless.

Then there are some projects for directors and producers.

Real famous directors and well-known producers will not lack relevant channels for attracting investment, and generally rarely adopt this kind of delivery method.

So, it takes a lot of luck to come across really valuable films on these projects.

Because of the special experience, Ronan reviewed it very quickly, but when it came to the seventh part, he saw a familiar name - "Killer Codename 47".

This is a female producer named Adrian Ascalia who pitched into a game adaptation film project for Shahai Entertainment.

Shahai Entertainment has done a good job, and in addition to the project, Adrian Ascalia's bio and the game are also included.

This so-called producer has no previous production experience, not even an assistant producer, or more precisely, she doesn't even have film experience.

In terms of games, "Killer Codename 47" was released in 2000 and is a game that depicts the killer and how to kill it.

Ronan remembered that he had seen such a movie, but he only knew that there was such a movie, and the specific plot and content did not leave any impression on him.

He then saw the project proposal and focused on the budget.

The budget for such a game-based movie is quite staggering - $50 million!

Ronan didn't think twice about it, and directly turned on the red light.

What a joke to shoot such an unknown game for $50 million, unless he's crazy.

This is 50 million US dollars, and if Brother Bao is asked to shoot it, it is enough to make ten movies adapted from games.

Thinking of Brother Bao, Ronan made a special note on the project, asking Connie to then transfer the project to Uwe Ball, and if Uwe Ball was interested, he could talk to the female producer and buy the rights to the game adaptation.

Of course, the price needs to be right.

Ronan believes that this so-called $50 million budget game adaptation movie, Uwe Ball can make it with $5 million.

Maybe you can see more (slots) at it.

Towards the end of the day, Robert Lee returned with a book in his hand.

"Marvel Entertainment just sent it over, this is a comic strip sample of "Ace Agent". Robert Lee put the book on Ronan's desk: "Published in October." ”

Ronan picked it up and flipped it through briefly, and said, "Mark Miller and Marvel are fast. ”

In order to obtain the film and television adaptation rights related to Mark Miller's "King of the Sea" comics, Ronan agreed to license the copyright of the comic book adaptation of the movie "Ace Agent" to Mark Miller, but Mark Miller does not have the copyright, and the comics must be published by Marvel Entertainment.

Related matters have long been discussed, and the film and television adaptation copyright of "King Haibian" has been held in the hands of Shahai Entertainment.

Ronan was a little surprised that Mark Miller's comics were created so quickly.

Robert Lee sent over only the first issue, and the relevant background has completely changed to a British setting, and the so-called secret service organization has also become an existence similar to that of the King Arthurian Knights of the Round Table.

"Ace Agent" seems to be back on the path it was supposed to take, and the agent has become the so-called British gentleman again.

Of course, on the surface of the gentleman only.

What is a traditional English gentleman? He talks about courtesy, righteousness and shame, but burns, kills and loots all over the world.

This is the so-called English aristocratic fan.

Ronan briefly flipped through the comics and said, "It's not bad, the setting is much more reasonable than the movie we made." ”

Robert Lee continued: "We made films to attract investment from Arabs, so many of the settings are not very reasonable. ”

In his eyes, making Arabs the protagonists and decent figures is the biggest irrationality.

Although the beginnings of relativistic entertainment were tied to the pockets of the Arabs, Robert Lee's deep-seated views since childhood did not change as a result.

"The comics hinted at going public, and if Mark Miller wanted to, after the first comic book was serialized, he could move on to the second one," Ronan said. ”

Robert Lee nodded: "I'll discuss this matter with him." ”

The wider the spread of the comics, the more beneficial it will be for future film adaptations.

The first part of the former "Ace Agent" was quite successful, especially the headshot fireworks and Colin Firth's church hundred beheadings, which left a rather impressive impression.

Instead of returning to the manor immediately after work, Ronan had dinner with Tom Cruise in a restaurant in Century City while discussing something.

The Netflix network is about to go public, and Tom Cruise's side is also part of the plan, and there are also related actions to be carried out.

Next week, Tom Cruise previously announced at a press conference that the ALS Charity Foundation will hold an inaugural reception.

It was also a charity dinner.

Neither Ronan nor Tom Cruise will do the dirty act of pledging but not admitting when it comes to charity.

In order to attract attention and gain attention, it is normal for celebrities to borrow charity for high publicity, and this is the case all over the world.

But what you say must be done, this is the minimum credit of being a person, otherwise what is the difference between talking and farting?

Tom Cruise also never thought of doing Oprah and Julia Roberts.

"The location has been decided. Tom Cruise said, "In the Ritz-Carlton's One Ballroom. ”

Ronan nodded, "What do you need my help with?"

Tom Cruise half-jokingly said, "You just take the lead in donating." ”

Ronan took a sip of water and said seriously: "No problem, I have always supported charity. ”

He will then donate $2 million each in the name of private and relativistic entertainment.

All this money will be used for the treatment and recuperation of ALS.

Ronan has never been a soft-hearted person, but the most basic conscience and bottom line are still there, otherwise he would not be recognized as a reliable and trustworthy representative in Hollywood.

That visit to the ALS sanatorium with Tom Cruise was really touching.

On the other hand, in order to cooperate with the listing of Netflix Network, Tom Cruise's actions are all spontaneous help, although he will also invest in Netflix Network stocks, but Ronan will definitely support Tom Cruise where he should support him.

To put it bluntly, this is also supporting himself.

Tom Cruise said at this time: "In terms of media reporters, I have contacted a lot here, but how can it not compare to your relativity entertainment, you still have to think of some way in this regard." “

"Rest assured, the PR department is already in touch, and at least 100 media outlets will be present," Ronan said. ”

As long as the work in advance is done well and the momentum is loud enough, Tom Cruise will attract more attention and Netflix will receive more attention.

This long-planned plan, of course, must be implemented with Netflix as a platform.

When the media and the Internet go wild, Netflix must be one of the most frequently mentioned names, which can invisibly bring a huge advertising effect.

Ronan knows one thing very well, the reason why the once popular website or APP has so many users is that the spontaneous communication of users to attract users is one thing, and the more critical publicity and promotion.

Behind any popular APP, there is a promotion plan with painstaking effort and resources.

"Any other questions?" Ronan asked, putting down his glass.

Tom Cruise thought about it for a while and said, "Not for the time being, we keep in touch by phone and communicate in a timely manner if there is a problem." ”

Ronan glanced at his watch and said, "Yes." ”

After the dinner meeting, Ronan returned to the estate and called Connie to follow up on the invitation to the press.

As soon as she got to work the next day, Connie sent Ronan a list of the media that had accepted the invitation.

A little later, Ronan received another phone call from Gore Wibinski, and the two sides briefly communicated about "The Weather Forecaster".

Ronan couldn't have spent tens of millions of dollars on risky projects just because he had worked with Gore Wibinski.

The two sides are business cooperation, and business cooperation is naturally decided by profit.

Like Guillermo del Toro and Paolo Greengrass, who were in front of him, they had a great time working together and ended without irreconcilable conflicts.

With the help of Relativity Entertainment's platform, these directors have been successful, and it will be much easier to find investment.

With the Pirates of the Caribbean series in place, it's not hard for Gore Verbinski to find a new investor.

As soon as she hung up the phone with Gore Wibinski, Connie informed Ronan that someone from Disney had come to visit.
