As soon as the sun rose above the horizon, Ronan got out of Priyanka Chopra's apartment building, drove to Burbank, arrived at 13th Street, where Shahai Entertainment is located, and found a restaurant for breakfast.

It took a lot of energy last night, and when he came out, Priyanka Chopra was still asleep.

Perhaps it was because of the older mental age, while eating breakfast and thinking about Priyanka Chopra's meticulous service last night, Ronan secretly sighed that the young and beautiful girl was really wonderful.

This is the pursuit of life.

Money, power and beauty, who can refuse a normal man?

Especially when a beautiful and sexy girl tries her best to please you, the enjoyment is addictive.

It's still a young and beautiful girl for him.

Is it because I'm mentally old that I like girls?

There was a saying in my previous life that I said very well, uncle loves Lori.

Ronan hurriedly stopped, not daring to think deeply, thinking too much and making it easier to do something inferior to beasts.

He didn't know much about it, so he went back to Attorney Dinah Ampton and asked.

Ronan has read related content such as Hollywood's industry rules and entertainment bills, but who has nothing to do to look through the law and find out how many years old a girl would be guilty of having a relationship?

After breakfast, Ronan's heart was retracted, and after entering the company, his mind turned to work.

Shahai Entertainment has expanded its scale several times, counting the screenwriting team as temporary employees, the staff has exceeded fifty people, the original office has long been unable to be accommodated, just two small companies next door one moved away, the other went out of business, Ronan let people rent it directly, the smaller one is dedicated to the creation of the temporary screenwriter team, and the other is handed over to the most important production department.

In the first large office, there were less than ten people left, and outside Ronan's office, a separate cubicle was added, in which two workstations were placed, and the assistant Connie and her deputy worked here, which was also convenient for Ronan to arrange work at any time.

This can only be done temporarily.

Ronan also wants to have an entire building of his own company as an office building, like Walt Disney, Warner Bros., Universal Pictures and Twentieth Century Fox, but at this stage, he can only think that he can't put a lot of money on this fixed asset, and only when the money is liquid can he get more profits.

Stand-alone office buildings can only be used as future plans.

Ronan enters the office, and Connie immediately brings a cup of hot tea.

"You can help me connect with a real estate agent. Ronan said, "Ask them to contact me on the weekend. ”

Connie immediately jotted it down and asked, "What type of real estate agent?"

Ronan thought for a moment and said, "Acting for a private villa, it's best to have a property in a quieter neighborhood." ”

"I see. Connie left.

Recently, the Nasdaq has had a slight shock, but the overall trend is still up, but the situation is obvious, and a stock market crash can occur at any time.

Although Ronan doesn't know the time of the crash, let alone the specific process, it is not difficult to find the problems of the stock market if his brain can analyze it a little.

It is estimated that some people have already begun to get out.

But many more are still fanatical.

is still the same sentence, the huge interests have blinded people's eyes, making many people think that even if there is a problem, the NASDAQ can hold on for a long time, and someone will definitely be the pick-up man in the future.

After Ronan went to Scott's villa, he always wanted to change to a quieter detached villa, so that privacy was guaranteed, and it was more convenient to do something private in the future.

Now take the time to look at the house, and when the stock market crashes, maybe there will be those who want to sell their property as soon as possible to raise money.

I don't know how many people in the United States are going to jump off buildings.

Popular suicide sites, such as the Golden Gate Bridge or the Brooklyn Bridge, may rain down on dumplings.

There was a knock on the door, Ronan said please come in, and Lindsay Beale walked in.

Ronan gestured to the chair opposite, "Please be seated." ”

Lindsay Beale pulled out a chair and sat down, saying, "I've finished the first draft of 'Twilight', and the rest has been sent to your mailbox, you can take the time to read it." ”

"Good. Ronan did not hesitate to praise: "Lindsay, you did very well, faster than I expected." ”

He opened the mailbox, glanced at the newly received email, and nodded with satisfaction: "I'll take the time to read, you rest for a few days first, keep your phone open, I will contact you at any time." ”

Lindsey Beale said, "Okay. ”

Ronan thought for a moment and said, "You contact Mary and settle the prize with her." ”

When it's time to give monetary encouragement, Ronan never skimps.

A smile instantly crept up to Lindsay Bill's beautiful face: "Thank you." ”

Ronan smiled, "You deserve it." ”

Lindsay Beale left Ronan's office satisfied, with a weekly salary of $1,000 and a $10,000 completion bonus, which is more than the annual income of most screenwriters in the industry.

If it can be published later, there will be a publication bonus......

It seems that I can pay off the student loan in one go.

Rest for a few days and hurry up to finish the rest of "The Hunger Games" and "Fifty Shades of Gray".

Through the observation of this time, Lindsay Beale determined that Ronan is a very trustworthy person, and none of the promised conditions have failed, and after writing these two books, will he be able to return to his old job as a screenwriter?

Screenwriting is what she pursued when she came to Hollywood, even if screenwriting is more restricted than writing.

If a family encounters a fussy editorial problem, it is completely possible to ignore it and the work can still be published, but no screenwriter in Hollywood has the final say.

For example, in a discussion meeting, the story that the screenwriter has painstakingly constructed will always be easily defeated by the producer's words: "Which guy chased the woman in the end?", "Where's the action?", "What's the laughing point?", "Who is the big bad guy behind the scenes?"......

So some enraged screenwriters couldn't bear it, and then walked out of the conference room without looking back, and never found a foothold in Hollywood again.

But the vast majority of screenwriters will obediently go back and revise until the boss is satisfied.

Lindsey Beale is well aware that she can now write a simple outline, and similar screenwriting work should be competent.

The script of a Hollywood movie is just an assembly line, originality is not the primary problem, the general requirement of the producer is that it can be written and can be used directly for filming, the dialogue must be smart, the story should be clear and coherent, entertaining, and enough.

There are usually no less than 10 screenwriters involved in a film, but only two of them can sign their names in the script author's column.

As for writing the script alone, Lindsay Beale hasn't considered it for the time being.

In Hollywood, it takes at least seventy or eighty movies to have one, from the story outline to the shooting script, which is really done by a screenwriter independently.

In the office, Ronan only looked at the beginning and end of the manuscript, and the rest of the manuscript could only be saved for later.

In just over three months, Lindsay Beale finished the first draft, and Ronan was very pleased with the speed.

The first draft is not long, only 26 chapters, and in terms of the number of words on the Internet in her previous life, Lindsay Beale can be classified as a remnant of the party.

But for physical book publishing, this speed is quite okay.

After the review is completed, Ronan will contact the publishing house and throw out the gimmick of preparing to adapt the movie in the name of Shahai Entertainment, and it is not difficult to publish it and enter the book market.

Ronan then went to the office where the screenwriting team was located, and took a brief look at the screenwriters, who were working on the desk, dividing labor and cooperating.

Two days ago, the screenwriting team had just finished the first draft of a script, and Ronan had already given Attorney Dinah Ampton to go to the Copyright Office to register the copyright.

As for the Writers Guild, there is no need for this at all.

The signature of the script is Ronan, but Ronan has not joined the screenwriters' union, and he cannot meet the conditions for joining the screenwriters' union for the time being, and non-union members can also file the script in the screenwriters' union, but the procedures are quite cumbersome.

The most important point is that the filing of the screenwriters' union only has an industry effect and has no legal effect.

In other words, if a screenwriter's work is only filed with the Screenwriters' Guild and not registered with the Copyright Office, once it is infringed and resorts to law, the filing of the Screenwriters' Guild cannot be used as evidence.

The unions are indeed strong, but compared to the other major unions in Hollywood, the screenwriters and screenwriters' unions are a bit of a struggle.

Simply hoping to be a screenwriter is very difficult in Hollywood, and many gold medal screenwriters have changed careers as producers or directors after becoming famous.

This situation is not only in Hollywood, but in the entertainment industry all over the world.

The script that Ronan asked Dinah Ampton lawyer to take for the record is called "Fatal Bend", and he also made a series of horror films in his previous life, and the income has been good in the family entertainment market outside the theater.

This series is not much success as a theatrical movie, but it is a winner in the offline rental and sales market.

Ronan had previously checked with the Copyright Office in many ways, and this was one of the series that was determined to have no registered copyright.

In addition, Ronan has developed a copyright plan, and plans to wait for Robert Lee to return to North America, with him as the core, to organize a small team, and then supplement it with professionals like Dinah Ampton to negotiate the copyrights of some targets.

In the previous life, the really super popular Hollywood movies, original works can be described as rare, and 99% of them are sequels or adaptations.

The strength of Relativity Entertainment is temporarily limited, and it is impossible to invest on a large scale, and if you want to fully squeeze the value of popular movies, you can't do it by simply shooting it, it requires careful commercial operations and large-scale investment, which also determines that it is impossible to make it together, otherwise it is a pure waste of resources.

A planned rollout is the best option.

At this stage, low-cost films with small investment and stable output are the preferred targets.
