Hearing Ronan's last words, Michael Eisner suddenly had a bad premonition, could it be that Disney is going to have a third party besides him and Roy Disney?

Ronan and Robert Iger have made sufficient preparations, and have also comprehensively analyzed Michael Eisner and Roy Disney, and can somewhat guess his thoughts at this moment, saying: "There are some things to say, and there is no need to hide them, in order to ensure the investment interests of Relativity Entertainment, I have reached an agreement with some investors." ”

Michael Eisner, knowing that the investor Ronan was talking about must be a shareholder of Disney, asked, "Who?"

"Goldman Sachs, Credit Suisse ......" Ronan whispered seven names.

"You're united?" Michael Eisner was not gullible, and was a little distressed: "You're a businessman, and you're united with such a vampire?"

Ronan said calmly: "There are common interests. ”

Michael Eisner calculated that if what Ronan said was true, then the equity he could directly affect would reach 12 percent.

This is already a very powerful force, after all, as long as half of the shareholders vote no confidence in the resolution at that time, according to Disney's procedure, he must step down.

Michael Eisner still doesn't believe it: "They invested in Disney back then, I brought them in, and I've been in contact with them before, and they're more inclined to support Roy Disney. ”

But they also don't believe that Roy Disney can lead Disney out of its current predicament. Ronan directly took out Michael Eisner's words: "I convinced them, though. Because they believe in my vision and ability in this industry, they are willing to follow in the footsteps of successful people. ”

Michael Eisner suddenly realized that he was not only the boss of Relativity Entertainment in front of him, but also the person with the best vision and ability in the Hollywood industry.

Ronan continued: "If there is not so much support, why would Roy Disney offer a generous offer for this stake in Relativity Entertainment?"

Thinking about the conditions that Ronan said before, and thinking about the current words, Michael Eisner feels that this may not be a matter of words.

To enlist the support of such a large force, Roy Disney will definitely have to pay a certain price.

"You ......" Michael Eisner stared at Ronan, "what conditions do you want?"

Ronan waved his hand, looking particularly frank and honest: "Michael, I'm not in a hurry to talk, you can go and verify first, these investors were all introduced by you back then, and it is not difficult to get in touch with them." ”

Hearing these words, Michael Eisner believed a little in his heart.

Because if it's true or not, you can find out when you ask.

Michael Eisner said directly: "Ronan, let's stop here today." He had to check before he could decide what to do next: "Are you going to stay in Chicago for the time being?"

Ronan nodded slightly: "I'll be in Chicago for the next few days." ”

Michael Eisner stood up: "We'll make an appointment another day." ”

Ronan stood up and shook his hand: "You have my contact information, you can call me at any time." ”

Before leaving, Michael Eisner emphasized again: "Ronan, Disney has developed under my leadership after all. ”

Ronan didn't say much and kept sending Michael Eisner out of the meeting room.

Michael Eisner went to the underground parking lot, got in the car, waited for the car to drive onto the road, took out his mobile phone, rummaged through a few numbers, and dialed.

Back in the reception room, Ronan stood in front of the window and looked at it for a while, then took out his mobile phone and dialed Robert Iger.

"There's no problem over there in New York, right?" Ronan asked.

"Rest assured. Robert Iger's confident voice came from the earpiece: "It's already been coordinated, they only need to deal with Michael Eisner verbally, and they don't need to do anything practical." However, I would also like to remind you that if our plan doesn't go well, they will always deny what they have said and go ahead with the original plan. ”

Ronan said: "It's generally going well on my side. Don't forget, I've already found someone to take over for them, including us. ”

Robert Iger said: "They are all very happy with it. ”

"There aren't many people who have money and want to go to Hollywood. Ronan said softly: "If they miss this opportunity, they can only wait for Disney to slowly appreciate, and who dares to guarantee that even if Roy Disney wins, it will bring Disney success?"

This is actually what makes some centrist shareholders hesitate the most, because Roy Disney is really average in terms of management ability.

Robert Iger said: "Roy Disney asked me to meet in the afternoon. ”

Ronan said, "Let's deal with him first." We've used him to push Michael Eisner to the point where he has to make a choice. ”

The two spoke a few more words, and Robert Iger said, "We keep in touch. ”

The phone hung up, and Ronan sat in the reception room, thinking quietly for a long time, especially the risk control.

However, where business investment and operation can not be risky? With opportunities, there will always be the option of risk.

Ronan thinks about how to end it if it really fails, so that Relativity Entertainment can minimize the loss.

Perhaps he was too cautious to assume whether the consequences of failure were bearable before considering success.

Roy Disney kicked out Michael Eisner because he couldn't get back the feature film rights of Pixar Animation Studios, which led Steve Jobs to tear up the agreement and want to get what he got from Disney into a moon mirror in the water, and then the money from the Pacific Investment Fund was locked up because it became Disney's equity......

The consequences of this are completely bearable, but the rate of expansion will be greatly slowed.

And the Disney shares in hand are not without the possibility of appreciation in the future.

Near noon, Ronan left the reception room, had lunch at the hotel, and then went to the crew.

The crew of "The Dark Knight" has officially started filming, and he is now in Chicago, so he must pay attention to it appropriately.

Especially Christopher Nolan, Ronan and him, whether it is business cooperation or personal friendship, get along very well.

"I'm lucky to have your support and that of Relativity Entertainment. ”

On the temporarily closed street, taking advantage of the long break between filming of the crew, Christopher Nolan communicated with Ronan for a while: "Ronan, without you, I would not have had so much power in the crew. ”

Ronan smiled and said, "This is something you won with your ability and business achievements." ”

Christopher Nolan suddenly asked, "Will we continue to work together?"

Ronan said without hesitation: "Of course, as long as you want, we can cooperate for a long time." ”

"Between The Dark Knight and the third installment, I plan to make another film. Christopher Nolan said simply: "At present, there is a preliminary idea, probably in the genre of science fiction, and the investment may be very high. ”

Ronan thought of a name, remained silent on the surface, and said, "I believe in your ability and strength, and I and Relativity Entertainment will support you." ”

Unlike other directors, Ronan knows very well that Christopher Nolan has always been a director with very strong commercial attributes.

Christopher Nolan said: "I decided that I would have Jonathan write the script first, and then show it to you as soon as the script was finished. ”

Ronan nodded slightly: "Yes." He thought for a moment, but still asked, "Can you tell me what you think?"

Christopher Nolan didn't hide it either, saying, "Probably about dreams and theft or something. ”

Ronan instantly understood that there should be no mistake, it was the former commercial masterpiece "Inception".

After chatting for a while, Christopher Nolan went to prepare for the filming of the next scene, and Ronan stood in the lounge area silently watching.

The former "Inception" was undoubtedly a great success, both word-of-mouth and box office, which can be described as an explosion.

Remember that the actor is Leonardo DiCaprio.

But Relativity Entertainment and Leonardo have never had any cooperation, and if Shahai Entertainment invests in the filming of "Inception", it will definitely have to change the actor.

Actors, or superstar actors of the same level as Leonardo, Relativity Entertainment is also easy to find.

Several yellow long-nosed school buses entered the set, and Ronan saw Heath Ledger wearing a clown mask, the Australian actor looked a lot thinner, and there was an inexplicable change in temperament.

The crew signed strict restrictions with Heath Ledger, and there was no need to worry about him getting into trouble during filming.

In addition, the crew of "The Dark Knight" also hired a professional psychological counselor for the main actors according to Ronan's suggestion.

According to the setting of the script, both the Joker and Batman actually have serious psychological problems.

Ronan didn't want to see problems with the actors while working on the set.

Relatively speaking, Christian Bale's adjustment ability is better, but he also reacted in the early stage and was somewhat dissatisfied with the character setting.

After all, from the protagonist to the actual supporting role, even the protagonist's aura has been handed over to another character, and there will be some complaints.

It's not that Ronan needs to be bothered, Christopher Nolan has convinced Christian Bale.

Anyway, this is a Batman movie after all.

Filming started soon and went quite smoothly, a scene was filmed, and when the plot was set to the clown, half an afternoon passed unconsciously.

Towards four o'clock in the afternoon, Connie received a phone call and came over and said, "Michael Eisner's assistant has called and asked to meet at the hotel tomorrow morning." ”

Ronan waved his hand: "Yes." ”

Connie went to call back, and Ronan was just about to leave, when producer Charles Rowan, representing Warner Bros., suddenly came close to him.

"Got time, Ronan. Charles Rowan said directly: "I want to talk to you about Batman Part III." ”
