Before Thanksgiving, there was also a big event in the United States related to relativity entertainment, and Ronan and the entire group of companies had invested in Washington politics for many years, and they got a good result.

In the election for the President of the United States that ended in November, the results of the vote count showed that Mr. Kurotan was elected as the 44th President of the United States with 349 to 163 electoral votes, and will take over Washington's Falling Sakura God Axe on January 20 next year and become a new generation of vampire hunters and terminators of the old gods.

This also means that the plans that Relativity Entertainment is implementing will have much less political resistance.

With the coming to power of the Black Tan classmate, the White Left movement in the United States also reached a peak.

The so-called freedom that the Americans are looking forward to is about to usher in the so-called freedom, and the facts will prove in the future that these barbaric so-called freedoms will make some people lose even their basic brains and become veritable brains.

Especially Hollywood stars, there will be a large number of brain-dead actors, who fully interpret the promise of "freedom", so life can also be thrown away.

Compared with the turbulent economic situation in the United States, although the Hollywood industry is also facing many difficulties, it is generally better, and the entertainment industry will always rise in every economic crisis.

With the development of the times, this correlation has not completely disappeared, although it is gradually becoming smaller.

Compared to Hollywood, industries such as real estate, finance and insurance, the rain of human dumplings can be described as non-stop.

Even in this worse world, the United States is now a mess, and the life of Hei Tan classmates after he takes office next year will not be easy, and the bailout of the Washington authorities will fall more into the hands of big capital groups, which has little to do with ordinary people.

Relativity Entertainment has not been affected much, and at a time when the wealth in the hands of many people has shrunk, Ronan's net worth continues to rise steadily.

The total market capitalization of the Netflix network has exceeded $150 billion, which is still dragged down by the economic crisis, otherwise it could exceed $200 billion this year.

Apple, Google and Amazon, for their part, have also been relatively unaffected by the economic crisis.

Amazon's business, which has been less affected by Relatalistic Entertainment, has been growing very smoothly and is currently the largest online shopping site in the United States.

Apple launched the second generation this year, and the name of the kidney machine is gradually being established.

Although Google lost Android, other businesses were not affected and remained the No. 1 search engine on the Internet.

Ronan invested in these three companies that year and reaped a good return.

Although it rains down on dumplings all over the United States, it will not affect the happy life of the capitalists.

This year's Thanksgiving Day, unlike last year, Jessica Filton arranged a turkey-based Thanksgiving dinner, as is traditional in most American families.

"This is our second Thanksgiving together. ”

At the table, Jessica Filton ate a small slice of turkey meat that Ronan had cut, picked up her wine glass and gestured to Ronan across the table: "Honey, I wish you all the best in your career." ”

Ronan picked up his glass and touched it lightly with Jessica Felton, "I wish you happiness." ”

The two looked at each other and slowly drank a glass of wine.

Ronan went on to cut the turkey and brought it to Jessica Felton, where she served her some special sauce and said, "Try this, the chef's latest secret ingredient is made with Alpine rock salt from the Himalayas." ”

Jessica Filton picked up a small slice of turkey meat, dipped it in the sauce, and took a bite of it gently, giving it a salty texture.

She shook her head slightly, put down the remaining half of the turkey, and said, "I'll use cherry sauce anyway." ”

Ronan is not reluctant either, and everyone's tastes are different.

Jessica Filton took a sip of water from her glass and said, "I still can't get used to the secret oriental sauces, especially the hemp ......" She paused slightly and asked, "Is that the way you say it?"

Ronan nodded: "That's right, there's pepper oil in it." ”

Jessica Felton said directly: "I think it would be better to switch to cream. ”

"Cream?" Ronan couldn't understand what it was like to put cream in a dipping sauce made up of salt, cumin, and sesame sauce for barbecue.

It feels too beautiful to imagine.

Jessica Felton said: "I went to Mr. Zhou with Lindsay the other day for Chinese food, and they used a lot of cream in the meal, such as a dish called ......"

After spending a long time with Ronan, Jessica Filton can also say a few simple Chinese words: "Yes, the dish called Kung Pao Chicken, with cream as the main seasoning, tastes quite good, Lindsay and I remember it deeply." ”

Ronan smiled, "If you like it." ”

The regional differences in catering are too great, and the so-called original taste goes to other regions, which may be rejected because of surprise, and certain improvements are inevitable.

Just like Western food will be localized when it comes to the East.

There were only Jessica Filton and Ronan in the restaurant, and Jessica Filton asked while eating, "How's the preparation going over there?"

Ronan said simply: "The British side has collected more, and the American side has also collected a lot. The situation is the same as before, more serious than we expected. In addition, there has been progress on the evidence for the two of us. ”

Jessica Filton said: "It's better to hurry up and get it done, always on the lookout. ”

Ronan smiled: "Don't worry, everything is prepared, there will be no problems." ”

"I heard that Twentieth Century Fox intervened in the acquisition of Lucasfilm?" asked Jessica Felton curiously.

Ronan said simply: "Not only Twentieth Century Fox, but also Sony Columbia Pictures and Paramount Pictures have also expressed interest, and this is a business deal, and my friendship with George Lucas can make him inclined to promote relativistic entertainment under similar conditions." But when it comes to multibillion-dollar deals, individual deals are unlikely to be the key to a deal. ”

From the very beginning of this matter, Ronan knew that it was impossible to simply get Lucasfilm, and Lucasfilm could not sell itself to Relativity Entertainment casually for its own interests.

A multi-billion dollar company, from contact to the final completion of the acquisition, there will inevitably be twists and turns, and it is normal to have competitors, after all, this is Lucasfilm, which has the rights to the "Star Wars" series.

But Relativity Entertainment, which is definitely at the forefront of all companies, has now begun formal negotiations with Lucasfilm.

Frankly speaking, because of the occurrence of the economic crisis, the financial advantage of Relativity Entertainment is very obvious.

Take Twentieth Century Fox, the most likely competitor, for example, Relativity Entertainment doesn't even need to do anything else, and it can overwhelm Twentieth Century Fox with its financial advantage in acquiring Lucasfilm.

Twentieth Century Fox is one of the top big companies in Hollywood, but it has failed one after another with News Corp.'s acquisition of Time Warner, and has suffered from the withdrawal of investment institutions and bank loans.

Other major Hollywood companies have also suffered from a shortage of money due to the economic crisis, and have cut or postponed many film and series projects.

In contrast, because of Ronan's relationship, Relativity Entertainment has already made a good reserve of funds, and it is not greatly affected by the economic crisis.

This economic crisis is also the best opportunity for Relativity Entertainment, and many capital groups and large companies in the United States are too busy to take care of themselves and will not put too much energy into Hollywood.

For example, many capital groups on Wall Street are either eager to get out of the financial crisis, or busy with transformation, and some are filing for bankruptcy protection.

Leverage of more than 10 or 20 times is a routine operation for many companies on Wall Street, and Wall Street's crazy speculation and speculation in the financial industry is also one of the biggest triggers for this economic crisis.

To a certain extent, the unbridled expansion of Wall Street's financial power has broken the symmetrical relationship of power and responsibility between intellectual capital and capital.

It has been said that there is no other place in the world where history repeats itself so often and in the same way as Wall Street history.

Plummeting, skyrocketing, circuit breakers, selling, stampede, closing......

This is a financial tsunami and a financial crisis, and the global stock market has been pushed into an era of great volatility.

Financial drugs are addictive and crazy about it.

After dinner, Ronan and Jessica Felton went to the garden for a brief three, then went straight to the upstairs bedroom.

Jessica Felton has been busy with "Fast and Furious 5" on the Pines Grove set in London, England for a while recently, and only returned to Los Angeles this morning, and the two have not seen each other for a long time, and can only express their enthusiasm in the most simple and direct way.

Both of them are energetic, and the accumulated feelings and thoughts also need suitable outlets.

While Jessica Filton was still showering, Ronan walked into the bathroom.

Facing Ronan, Jessica Filton reminded, "Honey, I'm not safe right now. ”

Ronan responded with action: "It's okay. ”

Jessica Filton reminded again: "What if I win the bid?"

Ronan said casually: "If we win the bid, we will get married." ”

Of course, Jessica Filton won't take what the man says at this time seriously, but she didn't stop it anymore, and what she said later became simple repetitive sentences.

Jessica Felton didn't stay in Los Angeles for long, and after a three-day vacation, she returned to London, not only for "Fast and Furious 5", but also for the preparation of "Weakness".

Another awards season in North America has kicked off, and Relativity Entertainment has no other award-winning works except for Pixar Studios' "Robot Wall-E", which has long been booked for the best animated feature film, and the hottest work this awards season is Harvey Weinstein and Kate Winslet's "The Reader".

In early December, the second weekend after the North American release of "The Hunger Games", another new film from Relativity Entertainment was released.

This is also one of the achievements of Relativity Entertainment's Disney project, the live-action fairy tale film of the same name, "Beauty and the Beast", based on Disney's classic animated feature film.
