"Compared to DreamWorks, Relativity Entertainment is really a small company. ”

Looking at Albert Hoffman, Ronan said with a smile: "But the internal structure of the theory of relativity is clear, unlike DreamWorks, a complete company, which is divided into three well-defined groups, and there is internal friction between each other......"

At this, he shook his head.

DreamWorks' personnel relations are more complex than those of the Big Six.

Albert Hoffman's eyes instantly became sharp, and in his eyes, Ronan was just a small person.

More than a year ago, this little man went to DreamWorks and begged him to release a film.

The people from DreamWorks came over, and they definitely couldn't talk about it today, and Ronan didn't dwell on it, and said, "Alan, Danny." That's all for today, we'll talk about that another day. ”

Alan Albert nodded: "Yes." ”

Danny Donald pointed to the book: "These ......"

Ronan smiled and said, "If you two don't bother, please take it back." Hopefully, we will be able to deepen our understanding. ”

Danny Donald put away the information, and so did Alan Albert.

Albert Hoffman didn't know what it was, and didn't explore, and said to Alan Albert: "DreamWorks is very sincere in inviting the two, and I hope they don't miss this opportunity, DreamWorks is a platform that is second only to the big six companies in Hollywood." ”

Large companies do have confidence, this is also a fact, today's dream factory, in terms of scale alone, is definitely the leader of the second line.

Alan Ebert didn't know the strength of DreamWorks, and the platform of large companies was indeed incomparable to that of small companies, and immediately said: "Mr. Hoffman, I will seriously consider it." ”

Ronan didn't interject rashly, the gap in hard power between Relativity and DreamWorks was too great.

Even if Albert Hoffman's attitude is a bit arrogant, in the eyes of many people, it will be understood as the confidence of a large company.

Think about your previous life, not to mention many large companies, even some medium-sized companies, not 985 and 211.

Alan Albert and Danny Donald said goodbye and left, but Albert Hoffman didn't move.

Ronan is also ready to leave, and go back to think about countermeasures.

"Mr. Anderson. Albert Hoffman retorted, pointed to the armchair, and said, "Do you have time? ”

Ronan thought for a moment, sat down, and asked, "Something?"

Albert Hoffman said with a slight smile on his lips, "Go back, go back to Los Angeles, DreamWorks will remember you for this favor." ”

With another competitor added in between, it's hard to say that Alan Albert won't offer excessive conditions, and DreamWorks is bound to pay more.

Ronan was silent for a while, DreamWorks' favors are probably just lip service, even if DreamWorks really writes down this favor, can it be more important than overseas distribution channels?

To do business, you must first weigh the value and the pros and cons.

Just thinking about it for a while, Ronan came to the conclusion of which was more important.

"I'll be back in a few days. Ronan said vaguely.

After getting Alan Albert and Danny Donald, of course, go back to Los Angeles.

Albert Hoffman frowned and said, "Are you going to compete with DreamWorks maliceously? ”

Ronan smiled, "Thank you for the reminder. This is very true, those who are full of self-confidence and think that they can run rampant in Hollywood with their talent end up becoming a stepping stone for others. ”

Hearing this, Albert Hoffman nodded slightly, this young man didn't seem to have the determination to fight DreamWorks to the end.

Then to increase the weight, Albert Hoffman said: "Mr. Anderson, I am here in the UK on behalf of director Steven Spielberg, who takes this very seriously! Mr. David Geffen and Mr. Jared Katzenberg are also staring at this!"

He moved out of all the DreamWorks Triumvirate.

Even if Ronan is determined, in the face of these three, it is inevitable that he will beat the drum in his heart.

Seeing Ronan's expressionless face, Albert Hoffman flashed a trace of disdain in his heart, but his expression was serious: "DreamWorks will not treat every friend badly......"

He didn't say the second half, and Ronan could understand it.

In other ways, in the face of the ferocious DreamWorks, Relativity Entertainment will definitely avoid the edge.

But overseas distribution channels are too important.

DreamWorks friendship?

Ronan can only be represented by "hehe".

"Mr. Hoffman. Ronan quickly made a decision to make the DreamWorks boss think that giving up might be a bit confusing, and immediately said: "I also hope to get the friendship of DreamWorks, director Spielberg is my idol since childhood, "ET the Extraterrestrial" has grown up with me, and at the last Los Angeles Film Critics Association Awards, I also chatted with director Spielberg, who is an elderly man full of personality." ”

The smile on the corner of Albert Hoffman's mouth grew, this young man is not stupid, in today's Hollywood, in addition to the six major companies, is there any comparable to DreamWorks in terms of scale?

Ronan put it bluntly: "Relativity Entertainment will be a friend of DreamWorks." ”

Albert Hoffman nodded: "Mr. Anderson, you made a smart choice, I will report to Director Spielberg about today's events." ”

Ronan laughed, "Thank you." ”

Albert Hoffman stood up: "That's it, we'll see you in Los Angeles." ”

Ronan shook his hand, and after seeing Albert Hoffman leave, the smile on his face gradually retracted, and he turned around and walked towards the elevator room, where Robert, who was sitting nearby, hurriedly followed.

Entering the elevator, Robert asked in surprise, "Do you really want to give up?"

Ronan didn't answer directly, but asked rhetorically, "Which do you think is more important, the overseas distribution channel or the friendship with DreamWorks?"

"Friendship is such a thing as ethereal and unreliable. Robert said bluntly: "Overseas distribution channels are the benefits that we can feel and see." ”

Ronan said, "I want a distribution channel. ”

The two entered the room, and Ronan kept thinking about how to win the competition with DreamWorks.

Looking at Alan Albert's attitude, it seems that he has a good impression of DreamWorks, after all, the scale of DreamWorks is there.

Danny Donald doesn't seem to like that Albert Hoffman very much, though.

Listening to those words of Albert Hoffman, this man should be Spielberg's henchman.

In the previous life, DreamWorks never established an overseas distribution channel, there is no doubt about this, but PolyGram was indeed acquired by Universal......

How did DreamWorks miss this opportunity? Ronan's mind suddenly appeared with the face of Danny Donald.

Alan Albert and Danny Donald can influence each other, but it is not enough to rely on Danny Donald, after all, the general environment of Western society is here.

Damn DreamWorks, why don't you go bankrupt now? Ronan cursed.

The gap in the company's hard power is too great.

"Robert, if you're Alan Albert or Danny Donald. Ronan asked, "Which one will you choose?"

Robert thought for a moment and said, "DreamWorks." ”

Ronan sighed and called Chris to hear what the two men had to say.

It didn't take long for Chris's call to come back, and Alan Albert hadn't made a decision yet, but he asked Chris several times about the situation at DreamWorks.

Ronan put down the phone, found the pile of information prepared in advance, and thought about it as he looked through it, read the information of the two people, and looked at the situation of Albert Hoffman after he came to London provided by Keane......

Relying on any aspect alone, I'm afraid it will be difficult to win over DreamWorks, is it a risky move?

Ronan looked up and asked Robert again, "Normal competition, can we beat DreamWorks?"

Robert showed a wry smile, afraid of affecting Ronan's judgment, and said honestly: "It's possible, but the odds are very small." ”

Hearing this, Ronan stood up and walked a few steps, finally making up his mind.

"I have a plan, I don't know if it will work out. Ronan said slowly: "If we don't do anything, the chance of losing to DreamWorks is very high, more than 90% may lose the opportunity to establish overseas distribution channels, but if we succeed, at least we can have an equal chance to compete with DreamWorks." ”

Since his first trip to Abu Dhabi, Robert has trusted Ronan unusually and said, "Let's do it!"

Ronan said seriously: "I'll talk to Chris in a while, ask him to contact Sony Columbia, it is best to encourage Columbia Pictures to lead the six major companies to jointly put pressure on DreamWorks, Sony Entertainment is willing to let Chris come to London with us, the attitude is very obvious, I want DreamWorks to not be able to devote more energy to focus on London for the time being." ”

Rob nodded: "The last thing the Big Six companies want is to see the rise of DreamWorks threaten their position. ”

Ronan continued: "I personally called Tom Cruise, who is friends with Alan Albert, and asked him to persuade Alan Albert from the side. And then there's Danny Donald......"

"Shall I go?" said Robert.

Ronan shook his head: "No, I'll go." He looked at Robert, "You have more important things to do, you go to Keane......"

Robert listened carefully to Ronan's words, was a little surprised, and said, "Isn't that good?"

"Can we win without using unconventional means?" Ronan asked.

Robert was silent, the gap between him and DreamWorks was too great.

Ronan said again: "A character like Keane at the junction of black and white must have a way, you can negotiate the price with him, but you must keep your mouth closed, remember not to go to his place." ”

"I understand. Robert immediately went to Keane.

Ronan called Chris, told him about the previous meeting with the two, and said with a little exaggeration that DreamWorks was about to get overseas distribution channels, and before he could say more, Chris contacted Sony Columbia Pictures.

Today, the president of Sony Columbia Pictures is none other than Gustafson, whom Chris served as an assistant.

At noon that day, Chris rushed back to Los Angeles to report to Gustafson.

Ronan also reached out to Tom Cruise.
