These two foundations, one of which is completely owned by Ronan personally, is called the Anderson Foundation, which is mainly engaged in financial and securities investment business, and the source of investment funds is also raised by Ronan himself.

The other is called the Pacific Film Foundation, which is a partnership, for the time being, there are only two partners, Ronan and Tony Koch, and its main business is film production investment, and the source of investment funds is public fundraising.

The former Ronan can start operating as long as he completes the capital injection, while the latter has a very long way to find funds.

The two foundations are currently under Scott's head for the time being.

In addition, two offshore foundations registered in the Cayman Islands have also entered the planning stage, and Diane lawyers have already contacted international intermediaries and will complete the registration within this year.

Ronan's personal funds began to be transferred to the Anderson Foundation, pending the aftermath of 911.

As for the Pacific Film Foundation, Ronan personally spoke to Tony Koch on the phone, and Tony Koch will help promote the film investment fund in Germany.

Shahai Entertainment is about to get involved in Hollywood's first-line productions, and the production cost of each film will be as high as more than 100 million US dollars, which also means that a large amount of capital is invested, and Relativity Entertainment's cash flow is limited, so it is impossible to smash its own liquidity on film production, and it is necessary to seek foreign investment.

Ronan plans to wait until September before going to India, and if there is any progress at the Tokyo office of Embassy Pictures, he will also go to the island country.

And South Korea, you can also try to go there to raise money.

Hollywood movies are still quite attractive to Japanese and South Korean funds, otherwise after Robert Iger came to power in his previous life, Disney would not have come up with a Pacific Velvet Film Foundation that absorbs investment from island countries.

In fact, since the early 90s, behind the Hollywood film budget, you can see the shadow of Japanese and South Korean funds, and DreamWorks has a close relationship with South Korea's Samsung Group and the Lee family.

Both countries know about Hollywood, and many people are investing in Hollywood, which also helps attract investment.

As early as when Ronan asked Scott to set up the foundation, he had already asked people to collect relevant information, and he also knew the names and general information of some financial institutions in Japan and South Korea that had invested in Hollywood.

With goals in mind, you can create a targeted plan.

Hollywood is going international, and that includes funding for making films.

Of course, Ronan knows very well that to attract money from these countries, you must do things according to the consistent rules of the contract and Hollywood, otherwise if your reputation is bad, not only will there be a lot of trouble, but it will also affect the next step of financing.

Relativity Entertainment has passed the most difficult stage, and Ronan has no intention of doing anything messy in this regard, and the inherent rules of Hollywood are already very beneficial to the studios.

At the same time, Ronan once again seriously considered whether to go to the East by the way, "Spy Shadow" has been released there, with the reputation of Hollywood, coupled with the social situation there, the film foundation will definitely be able to absorb funds from the East Country, and even hundreds of millions are not a problem.

And he will play this money game according to the rules, naturally there is no problem of whether there is a pit or not, everyone just does things according to the rules.

The only concern is the rampant divine beast, after all, there is no reason to talk about it.

If you say you can, you can do it, and if you can't do it, you can't do it, and if you say you can't, you can't do it.

Let's see what happens.

Ronan can only think like this, if he can get enough money in other places, there is no need to go to Dongguo, in case anything happens, it will also affect the review of the big scissors in the future.

There is no clear standard for big scissors, and when you say you can't do it, you don't know where the problem is when you self-examine.

In contrast, the island nation and South Korea are still preferred.

The island country is rich in artists, who are the famous artists of this era? It seems that the time is too far away to remember......

In South Korea, the entertainment industry over there is more interesting, if the Hollywood agency is the service provider, the agency over there is simply the star dominant.

I heard that they like to let their stars accompany important people or clients......

The unspoken rules are still the best played by Koreans, and there is no one who can force so many actresses to commit suicide.

Ronan thinks that if he goes to South Korea, as the owner of a Hollywood film company and a famous producer, he seems to be a big man, will he be hospitable?

Song Hye Kyo, Jun Ji-hyun...... Who else is a famous Korean actress in this era?

It's a pity that Ronan's unfamiliarity with the Korean entertainment industry is about the same as that of the island country, and even less familiar with the artists of the island country.

By the way, when did the thigh era debut?

The thought just flashed through Ronan's head, and then he tossed it aside, there were so many more important things to think about than that.

Since March 2000, the U.S. economy has been very sluggish, and now there seem to be some signs of recovery, but this recovery is quickly extinguished, and the socio-economic situation continues to be volatile.

For more than a year, Ronan has been keeping an eye on the company called Netflix, which is hired by an investigative consulting agency that sends out detailed information about Netflix every week.

For this Internet company, Ronan is even no less than his own Sand Sea Entertainment.

If it weren't for the imminent arrival of 911, he might have already done something to Netflix.

But now it is time to wait a little longer, when the socio-economic environment becomes worse.

Internet companies, no matter how they are, cannot exist in isolation from society, and changes in the socio-economic situation will further affect Netflix, which is already in a difficult situation.

In the past year or so, Reed Hastings has struggled in various ways, but unfortunately the overall environment is not good, Netflix itself is limited, and its direct competitors are behemoths like Pepsi, and they have not found investors at all.

Although the online rental business is gradually expanding, the lack of capital means a lack of content and a lack of capital to attract customers to pay for it.

In the previous life, Netflix's model has had an impact on Hollywood, and may even subvert Hollywood's traditional film and television distribution model.

Ronan knows very well that new media outside of traditional distribution channels will be an important capital for Relativity Entertainment to be competitive in the future.

The six major Hollywood companies have considerable influence on theater companies and traditional distribution channels, but they do not have an absolute advantage in the simultaneous development of online video business.

Although the Big Six Hollywood are both cooperating and competing, it is impossible to work together to strangle a certain film company, and will only adopt a looser alliance to suppress it like DreamWorks, but in case the future situation is not good, and at the same time facing the strangulation of several strong competitors, Relativity Entertainment can at least ensure that it survives if it has a wide enough new media channel, rather than having to sell itself to the Big Six like DreamWorks.

Although the huge plan has only just begun, watching the blueprint become a reality little by little with hard work, Ronan will not let it easily come to naught.

In Ronan's vision, Relativity Entertainment Future is an entertainment media group focused on content production and distribution.

This also determines that the plan is difficult and difficult, and may even not be realized.

Too many companies in Hollywood, like DreamWorks, are on the way.

Ronan didn't want Relativity Entertainment to be one of them.

In the first half of 2001, even though Relativity Entertainment produced and released three blockbuster films, "House of the Dead", "Spy Shadow" and "Fatal Bend", the North American box office performance was still not as good as that of DreamWorks.

In the past six months, DreamWorks has earned more than $400 million at the North American box office with films such as "Shrek", "Artificial Intelligence", "Mexican" and "Evolution".

In the comprehensive statistics of the North American box office for half a year, DreamWorks not only topped the list of second-tier film companies, but also beat Sony Columbia, Twentieth Century Fox and Paramount Pictures.

The box office is not everything for the studio, but it is the basis for the revenue of new films.

DreamWorks' outstanding performance still firmly attracts the hatred of the Big Six.

Relativity Entertainment, under the cover of DreamWorks, has quietly squeezed into the forefront of second-tier film companies, but Ronan is well aware that Warner Bros.'s new line of pictures will soon explode.

The first part of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy will be officially released at the end of this year.

This is one of Ronan's favorite series of movies in his previous life, but unfortunately Tolkien's film rights have long been sold, and after he came to Los Angeles, New Line Pictures has completed the integration of film rights with the support of the Weinstein brothers and began the preparation of a trilogy.

The Lord of the Rings trilogy has created so many glories that New Zealand director Peter Jackson has made a leap into the ranks of Hollywood's top directors.

Although he left Tolkien and hit the streets, Peter Jackson can be regarded as leaving a strong mark in the history of cinema.

And Gandalf, Ronan has seen too many memes about Gandalf in his previous life.

In the setting of the Lord of the Rings, Gandalf is a Maia, colloquially known as a demigod, proficient in melee combat and sorcery.

In Peter Jackson's movie, probably spell special effects were too expensive, and Gandalf completely became a hand-to-hand combat unit, so that at that time, Gandalf was used as an idol on the Internet in the eastern country, and there were many game mages adding points.

For example, spells add a lighting, and the rest add strength and system, weapons to learn two-handed swords or one-handed swords, and put an illumination wheel sword in a fight to be reckless.

Even, Gandalf in the Lord of the Rings movies has influenced the way Ronan fights the mage protagonist at a certain point in his previous life.

Selling a sword in one hand and a wisdom staff in the other, killing one person in ten steps, and not leaving a line for thousands of miles.

Gandalf in white robes, leaving behind the legend of an endless melee mage.

While Ronan was researching overseas fundraising and the operation of the foundation, he got the good news that Shonda Remes had returned to Los Angeles from Seattle and that the first draft of the script for "Grey's Anatomy" had been completed.
