Early on Monday morning, Harvey Weinstein got up early, and after breakfast, changed into a decent formal suit, looked at the woman who was still sleeping in the bedroom, left a note on the coffee table in the living room, and rushed downstairs to meet Ronan Anderson yesterday.

He went out a little earlier to show respect for Ronan Anderson.

From digging holes with each other when they first met, to later becoming equals, to now, Harvey Weinstein has witnessed the rise of a super-rich man.

Thinking of the past, Harvey Weinstein is also rejoicing, fortunately, he chose patience in films such as "Heroes" and did not conflict with Ronan Anderson.

It also gave him a good personal relationship with Ronan Anderson.

Harvey Weinstein has done so many things, not only has not there been too many negative effects, but has developed in the circle for more than 20 years, becoming one of the big names in Hollywood, and has his own survival rules.

Actors and stars, Harvey Weinstein never took it seriously, but producers and bosses, in general, he would not be easily provoked.

Unless someone like Michael Eisner, with whom he has an irreconcilable conflict of interest.

As for Ronan Anderson, Harvey Weinstein has some expectations, there is no major conflict of interest between them, and they are the same kind of people in style.

Just as he was about to leave the hotel door, Pete Morgan, who he had seen the day before yesterday, and another middle-aged man suddenly flashed out.

"Good morning, Mr. Weinstein. Pete Morgan was the first to say hello and get straight to the point: "I wonder how that project is being considered?"

Harvey Weinstein frowned slightly, although he was very optimistic, but there was another way of saying it: "In general, I still have to think about it." ”

Pete Morgan somewhat understands the thinking of Hollywood producers and investors, and specifically pointed to Andy Harris and said: "This is Andy Harris, the producer who initiated the project. ”

"Hello, Mr. Weinstein. Andy Harris reached out.

Harvey Weinstein shook it lightly and said again, "Your project is too risky, and I need time to weigh it." ”

This is his consistent principle, first drag or coax, and when the time is right, get it in his hands at the minimum cost.

Andy Harris is not a newcomer to the industry after all, saying: "Mr. Weinstein, I hope you can make a decision soon, I met Mr. Ronan Anderson yesterday and he has expressed a strong interest in this project. ”

This remark caught the attention of Harvey Weinstein, and Ronan Anderson was in London!

Moreover, with such a topical project, he can see the value that may exist in it, and Ronan Anderson must also see it.

Next is the meeting with Ronan, and Harvey Weinstein is quiet: "You guys wait, I'll think about it." ”

After speaking, he got out of the hotel, got into the car without looking back, and walked away directly.

"Ronan Anderson just said to consider. Pete Morgan was a little worried: "It's okay if we say that, right?"

Andy Harris said: "How can we get the best terms without creating a competitive tension?"

Pete Morgan nodded and said, "yes." Hopefully they won't communicate privately. ”

Andy Harris added: "Generally, no. ”

As far as he knows, Miramax does not have any cooperation with Relativity Entertainment.

Ten minutes later, Harvey Weinstein met Ronan in a reception room at the Ritz-Carlton.

"I was in such a hurry that I didn't have time to say a lot of words. Harvey Weinstein smiled and said: "Congratulations, Ronan, your team is leading the Premier League again. ”

Ronan asked for coffee and said, "Thank you." He waved his hand: "Harvey, we are old friends, so don't say these kind words again." ”

Harvey Weinstein smiled enthusiastically and brightly: "Just because we are old friends, you called, I threw down the beauty in the room and immediately ran over." ”

Although Ronan was a little curious, he didn't ask who the so-called beauty was, because at their level in Hollywood, as long as they wanted to, there were too many beautiful women.

"To be honest, I was going to talk to you. Harvey Weinstein is a good guy in front of Ronan: "I didn't expect to meet you in London. ”

He smiled and said, "It seems that we are destined." ”

Ronan asked directly, "You have something to do with me?"

In fact, he roughly guessed, because a team of Robert Iger has been watching the entire Walt Disney, and a lot of what happened to Milan Max, which is a subsidiary of Walt Disney Holdings, has been summarized into his and Robert Egger's hands.

According to the plan, Ronan was going to wait a little longer to meet Harvey Weinstein, but when he met in London, it was okay to talk first.

Harvey Weinstein said: "There are some things that I have wanted to tell you for a long time, but for the sake of face, I always endure it. However, the situation is different now, and there are more and more internal problems within Walt Disney, and the contradictions are becoming more and more acute. ”

Ronan nodded slightly: "I've heard of it." ”

According to the understanding and judgment of Robert Iger, a former Disney employee, there is a more than eighty percent chance that the Disney shareholder meeting at the end of this year will become a battleground between Michael Eisner and Roy Disney.

Harvey Weinstein continued: "Last year, you told me not to give up on the business of building and developing......

Ronan remembers very well that he was just talking a few words on the side, was Harvey Weinstein going to put the blame on him?

"Bob and I originally wanted to continue to persevere, but today......" Harvey Weinstein first sighed, then shook his head: "I really can't hold on, continue to be sandwiched between Michael Eisner and Roy Disney, Bob and I will be finished sooner or later." ”

Ronan asked directly, "Harvey, what are your plans with Bob?"

Harvey Weinstein said, "Leaving Miramax and starting a new film company. ”

Ronan said, "That's a way to do it, too. ”

"But it's difficult, really, very difficult, a lot of Miramax stuff is company. Harvey Weinstein is selling miserably, intentionally or unintentionally: "Except for a little thoughtful manpower, Bob and I can't take anything with us." But starting a new company means starting from scratch, and funding is the most real issue in front of us. ”

He looked at Ronan: "It's not a secret, Ronan, I was looking for you just to ask for help." ”

Ronan has been thinking about it all the time, never stopping, and combined with Harvey Weinstein's words, he gradually came up with an idea.

"Are you planning to pull me along to invest in your new company?" Ronan asked.

Harvey Weinstein laughed and said, "You're willing to invest best." ”

Ronan shook his head: "I have a production company, and it is not wise to invest in your new company." ”

"What about loans?" said Harvey Weinstein, "and offer me a loan of $40 million, and I can pay it off in three years at most." ”

Ronan smiled, "It's okay, but I need a mortgage." ”

Harvey Weinstein smiled wryly: "Except for people, Bob and I can't bring any valuable collateral from Miramax, and the two of us don't have much property to pledge. ”

Because of some events, Ronan has read relevant reports, and he remembers it relatively clearly, Weinstein Pictures, which was later established by the Weinstein brothers, was invested by a number of companies and many people, and the largest shareholder was not Harvey, nor Bob, but the beach ex-boyfriend who used to be Miss Lizao.

The brothers' financial resources are not as shown by their power in Hollywood, and the earliest Miramax, the biggest investor, is also not the Weinstein brothers.

Even at his peak, Harvey Weinstein was only worth 10 million.

Once separated from Disney and Miramax, the Weinstein brothers had to find new partners and investors if they wanted to remain Hollywood bigwigs.

Ronan smiled and said, "Harvey, Relativity Entertainment can provide you with low-interest loans. ”

Harvey Weinstein's spirits were lifted, which was the main reason why he opened his mouth, and with his good connections, he was able to pull in money at the lowest cost.

"A mortgage is a must. Ronan emphasized, "I also have something to say to the rest of the company. ”

Harvey Weinstein laughed and said, "I understand. ”

Ronan began the first tentative condition: "You and Bob have more than just Miramax. ”

Hearing this, Harvey Weinstein's face changed.

Ronan said directly: "With the equity of Dimen Pictures or the copyright of the film library as collateral, Relativity Entertainment will provide you with a low-interest loan of 50 million US dollars, and you only need to pay it off within three years." ”

Harvey Weinstein's fat face piled up a wry smile: "Ronan, I'm just the manager of Dimen Pictures, and this needs to be decided by the shareholders' meeting." ”

He gasped, Ronan Anderson said about his old friend, and he didn't use the knife to be ruthless!

Harvey Weinstein deeply felt a point, and the ruthlessness of capital is vividly reflected in Ronan Anderson!

If the copyright of Emperor Pictures' library is really mortgaged, I believe that with Ronan Anderson's ability and the strength of Relativity Entertainment, he and Bob may not be able to repay the loan at that time, and then ......

The rights to the horror thriller family that have accumulated over the years, including successful series of films such as "Scream", "Scream" and "Very Little Spy", are about to change hands!

Harvey Weinstein woke up to the fact that he was as naïve as an actress who went to his room to talk about the script and the role in front of the capital.

"This ......" Harvey Weinstein tactfully refused: "I can't call the shots." ”

Ronan was not surprised, it was a temptation, and then said: "It seems that Harvey, you have concerns about me. ”

Harvey Weinstein said, "How is that possible? Who doesn't know that you're the most reputable in the business." ”

Ronan deliberately thought for a moment: "Let's say a condition that we can all accept." When Walt Disney bought Miramax, it paid you and Bob cash and a small stake in Disney. ”

Harvey Weinstein nodded: "There is such a thing, but after so many years, Disney has acquired ABC, and that bit of equity has been diluted repeatedly, in fact, there is not much." ”
