Chapter 399: Sugar Girl Sugar Dad
On the night of the charity banquet, Ronan, like other guests, donated a sum of money to the charitable foundation, and had a more specific interview with Bell Grylls the next day, and then summoned a team from Shahai Entertainment to London to discuss detailed cooperation with Bell Grylls.
It's not just "Survival in the Wilderness", but also Bell Grylls' upcoming rubber boat crossing the Atlantic.
Ronan saw Bell Grylls' plan to cross many dangerous areas, such as the North Atlantic ice floe.
The more dangerous the better, the more valuable it is to shoot, and Bell Grylls seems to know this very well.
There will be a security vessel in the back, and just like during the filming of "Survival in the Wild", Bale's team has rescue teams and doctors by hand at all times, and it is not as dangerous as it seems.
At the end of the day, it's a show.
Later, Ronan attended a football salon in London's Chelsea borough, where he met a number of Premier League club shareholders, such as Irishman Magnier, the majority shareholder of Manchester United.
There are also people who want to participate in the game of football.
For example, Roman Abramovich, an oil tycoon from Russia.
Unfortunately, because of his Russian background, the whole salon was ostracized, and Ronan only had a brief chat with him, knowing that he was interested in buying Chelsea.
It was not easy to complete the takeover, and the Chelsea owners were very interested in the high price he had made and were eager to sell the club, which was losing a lot of money every year, but the FA had been stuck and was obviously sensitive to Roman Abramovich's identity.
Some of the political and ideological obstacles are real in society.
Ronan had heard in the salon that Sheikh Mansour had been scouting Premier League clubs, but since the events of 911, even those who wanted to sell clubs for a profit had doubts about selling them to Arabs.
Not to mention the media and fans.
Three days later, Ronan was invited to a party hosted by William, and during his time in London, he spent the rest of his time trying to expand his network, except for his contact with Bell Grylls.
The status of a Hollywood billionaire is also a big help.
"William, when you go to Los Angeles, you must contact me. ”
After meeting several times, Ronan has become familiar with William, and can directly call his name in private: "The party in Los Angeles is a different style, and it is definitely a pity that you don't feel the same." ”
William whispered, "I'll definitely go if I have time." ”
For example, he is in London, there are too many eyes staring, even if it is a private party, he has to pay attention to the scene and etiquette, and he can't have fun at all.
Through a few contacts, Ronan had already sensed that young William had a restless heart.
And with a glance at his mother, he is very interested in Hollywood.
"Alright, we're done. Ronan shook William's hand and said goodbye: "I'm waiting for you to come to Los Angeles as a guest." ”
William smiled and said, "Ronan, I already feel your enthusiasm. ”
Ronan said goodbye and left William's private villa, and when he went out, the driver had already driven the car over.
After getting into the car, Connie in the co-pilot handed over a bottle of water, and Ronan took it and took a sip, drinking a lot of wine tonight, somewhat nauseated.
"How's Bell's talk?" Ronan asked.
During this time, his focus was mainly on socialising, and the negotiations with Bell Grylls were completely handled by a team of professionals.
Connie said: "A tentative agreement has been reached and a formal contract will be signed next Monday, with Bell Grylls being involved in the preparation and production of the adventure show after completing the transatlantic crossing. ”
Ronan nodded: "How long have you signed with him?"
Connie glanced at the memo and said: "Bell and his agent are only willing to sign for three seasons, Bell is not an ordinary person, and his agency also has strong strength in the UK." ”
"Three seasons is enough. Ronan didn't expect the other party to be stupid enough to sign a multi-year contract at once, after all, Bale is no longer a nobody. He added: "Tell Shahai Entertainment that you can listen to Bell's advice in the preparation of the show, and he has a wealth of field experience in this area." ”
Such a reality show is also inseparable from screenwriters, but it also needs on-the-ground experience that can withstand scrutiny.
The show needs professionals in this area.
Back at the Four Seasons Hotel, as soon as Ronan entered the hotel lobby, a middle-aged woman stared at him.
The middle-aged woman quietly observed Ronan, this man was dressed in a tailor-made suit, and the watch that occasionally appeared when he walked around was Patek Philippe, and the woman who followed him half a step behind was mediocre, obviously an assistant or secretary, and the white man on the other side must be a bodyguard......
This is not only a rich man, but also a very rich kind.
She immediately stood up and walked over, came to Ronan's side, and said, "Good evening." ”
Ronan glanced at her, a strange woman who was very strange, but had a very good temperament, and nodded in response, "Hello, ma'am." ”
"Can I delay you for a few minutes?" asked the strange woman.
Ronan frowned slightly: "Excuse me, are you ......?"
"I'm a surrogate. The middle-aged woman smiled and said, "We can go to the rest place and talk." ”
Ronan thought it was the agent of a rich man he had met in the past few days, and nodded and followed, this is the hotel lobby, and the other party can't do anything special.
After sitting down, Ronan asked directly, "Whose agent are you?"
The middle-aged woman didn't answer, but said, "Sir is not British, is he?"
Obviously, there is a clear difference between the accents and some dictionary habits in the United Kingdom and the United States.
Just when Ronan was a little impatient and was about to leave directly, the middle-aged woman said again: "This gentleman, do you need a tour guide or playmate who is familiar with the city during your visit to London?"
Ronan was a little surprised, this middle-aged woman with a good temperament actually did this kind of work?
The middle-aged woman didn't wait for Ronan to respond, and said to herself: "I have more than 300 members here, white, mixed-race, black, Asian and Latin, all of them have skin and hair colors, and I guarantee that these 300 members are all under the age of twenty-three, and they are all students at Cambridge University, Oxford University, University of London and the School of Dramatic Art." ”
The big names of Cambridge and Oxford, which are famous all over the world, Ronan heard that the other party could provide female students including these two universities as playmates, and he couldn't help but have a thought: "Is it really a student in school?"
"Yes. The middle-aged woman said: "We have a good reputation in this area, and if it is fake, we can't hide it from a successful person like you." ”
Ronan subconsciously looked around, and it seemed to be normal.
The middle-aged woman further dispelled Ronan's doubts: "They all have the corresponding identification. Oxford and Cambridge tuition fees are expensive, and some people need income to pay for tuition and living expenses. Young people understand the importance of academic qualifications and want to pursue their dreams, but find that they are unable to complete their education in the traditional way. So, they need to find ways to earn money that they wouldn't be able to earn otherwise. ”
Ronan's thought grew stronger, of course, not to find a playmate, after all, he was quite cautious.
He found that this might be a good subject, the high-ranking students of prestigious universities, engaged in some special service industry for money......
If it is made into a movie, will there be a market? For the Oscar or other awards, can it have so-called social significance? If it is made well, can it win several awards?
Ronan has experienced the era of the information explosion, and if what the middle-aged woman said is true, I'm afraid it's not an isolated phenomenon.
It is absolutely impossible for this kind of part-time job of school chickens to appear only in the East, and it should be more common in the West.
"Let's be specific. Ronan looked very interested.
The middle-aged woman said, "We help successful people like you find playmates and even girlfriends. They will take care of your shopping, eating, and dating, while you will only be responsible for providing a little cash and gifts. ”
Ronan asked again, "That's all?"
Seeing that Ronan seemed interested, the middle-aged woman lowered her voice slightly and said, "Of course, all things that should be done between men and women will be done. ”
Ronan nodded slowly: "Sounds good." ”
The middle-aged woman duly asked, "What type do you need?"
"Alone. Ronan wanted to know more, as if he was very good: "Blonde hair, delicate, soft and beautiful, long legs and tall ......"
The middle-aged woman was not afraid that the customer would not ask for it, so she immediately took out the phone and contacted her.
"You need to wait for a while. She put down the phone: "Excuse me, ...... your room"
Ronan, of course, would not be stupid enough to meet people in a private space, and said, "I'll just wait here." ”
The customer is God, and the middle-aged woman certainly has no objection.
Since he had to wait for someone to come over, Ronan asked casually, "Many girls in prestigious schools do this part-time job?"
"It's not a low percentage. The middle-aged woman said vaguely: "Many ordinary families can't afford the expensive expenses, and beauty and beauty can also be used as commodities and capital, isn't it......?
"Someone like me?" Ronan didn't quite understand what she meant.
The middle-aged woman made a small joke: "The poor only have money left......"
Ronan shook his head secretly, not believing the middle-aged woman's words very much.
There is no doubt that there are certainly people who engage in this kind of trading, even in prestigious universities, but it should only be a few people.
Having said that, in the previous life, college students have always been a place where people from certain special industries gathered, and many of them were fake college students.
Let's take the joke about the drink on the Internet, the girl who came out of the school must be a student?
It's not difficult to enter the university gate and then come out.
During the conversation with the middle-aged woman, Ronan also learned some special titles in this industry, such as the female student calling herself a sugar girl, and the man being called a sugar daddy......
There is a sentence in the middle-aged woman that impresses him - love is just a concept invented by the poor.
Sometimes, I have to admire that there are all kinds of people in this world, and what kind of ideas can be born.
After waiting for a long time, a blonde girl with exquisite makeup and a famous brand all over her body came to Ronan's side.
