Chapter 1694: Cold Shoulder

Bai Ningyuan, who was a guest at Bill Weiruan's house at the time, certainly didn't know that someone had already set his sights on his island.

While waiting for Wilkinson to make props, Bai Ningyuan finally ushered in a meeting with Thomas Toll, the owner of Legendary Pictures.

The meeting between the two men was set for nine o'clock in the morning, so early in the morning, Weinstein was already at Billy Buddha House.

"After a while, you'll be on your own, and as I said, Thomas Toole doesn't have a good impression of me, and it's even very likely that he doesn't have much of a good impression of you because of my introduction. While eating breakfast with Bai Ningyuan, Weinstein said to Bai Ningyuan again.

"Well, I'm already very grateful for helping me introduce him, I'll figure out the rest myself, but if this project is really successful, don't you really want to join in?" Bai Ningyuan said to Weinstein with a smile.

Although the things to be faced today can be said to be a major event related to the fate of Gal Gadot's acting career, Bai Ningyuan at this time did not have any nervous looks, and was still in the mood to be able to talk and laugh with Weinstein.

Before, in order to thank Weinstein for his efforts this time, Bai Ningyuan generously gave him a chance to invest, but was rejected by Weinstein.

He bluntly said that what he plays is the kind of niche literary films, and commercial films with higher investment and higher returns are actually not his thing.

During the meal, Weinstein did not forget to introduce some relevant information about Thomas Turr to Bai Ningyuan again, so that Bai Ningyuan could have a deep understanding of the opponent he was going to face today.

At eight o'clock, Bai Ningyuan had already set off with Weinstein from Billy Buddha House and went straight to Legendary Pictures.

"We're here to see Mr. Tours, and we've made an appointment. "When I arrived at the front desk of Legendary Pictures, I spoke briefly to the front desk staff, and then they were ushered to the door of an office.

A few minutes later, Bai Ningyuan met Thomas Toole himself.

At the first glance of him, Bai Ningyuan couldn't help but "chuckle" in his heart.

In Bai Ningyuan's words, the Thomas Toole in front of him is completely a fat man with a face full of unsmiling words.

Judging from the expression on his face that had hardly changed since he saw Bai Ningyuan and them enter the door, the person in front of him was a character who was not easy to get along with.

According to the information, Toole studied for a law degree at Hamilton College, a private school, and after graduation, he originally planned to become a lawyer, but eventually he slowly became an executive in a tax company through entrepreneurship, and later transitioned to private property management.

A person with such a rich experience must have rigor and shrewdness in his character.

Seriously, this kind of person is the type that Bai Ningyuan dislikes to deal with him the most.

"Thomas, this is the Bai I mentioned to you before, from Huaxia, a rather young and promising guy, even Mr. Wei Ruan admires him. Weinstein introduced Bai Ningyuan to Thomas Toll.

Obviously, Thomas Toole doesn't seem to like Weinstein's way of forcibly closing the distance from Henghu, which can be seen from the frown he just wore without showing a trace.

"Hello, Mr. Bai, welcome to you. He said coldly to Bai Ningyuan, politely stretched out his hand towards Bai Ningyuan, and after a brief shake, he quickly withdrew his hand after touching each other for no more than three seconds.

Bai Ningyuan felt as if he was facing a piece of ice that no longer exuded chills all the time, although he had been mentally prepared for Tool's coldness after hearing Weinstein's words before, but when he actually met, he found that his mental preparation was far from enough.

"My intention, Mr. Weinstein has already mentioned to you, is that I want to use your company's influence to push for a movie about Wonder Woman with Warner. Bai Ning said straight to Tur from afar.

After feeling the coldness of the other party, Bai Ningyuan gave up the effort to play the favor card with him, since the other party has a lot of experience in the financial industry, it is better to try to persuade the other party from the perspective of interests.

"Yes, I've listened to Weinstein...... Sir has heard of it, but here, I might as well make it clear to you that I am not really interested in your plan, it is true that Wonder Woman is one of the most popular characters in DC Comics, but comics are comics, movies are movies, and I don't think a commercial blockbuster with a female protagonist can be successful in the current market. Thomas Turr looked at Bai Ningyuan, and still said to him in a cold tone that rejected people thousands of miles away, without any politeness.

It took him almost all his strength to swallow the old bastard Weinstein and use a gentleman, and when he said this, he couldn't help but have a look of disgust on his face.

"No, no, no, I think if Mr. Tours had really been not interested in this project, as you say, I don't think we would have the opportunity to sit down and talk about it like we are now. Bai Ningyuan raised his head, looked at Thomas Tours in front of him without humility or arrogance, and said slowly, as if he did not receive the influence of the other party's euphemistic refusal.

After hearing Bai Ningyuan's words, Thomas Toole stared at Bai Ningyuan, his eyes looked sharp, but to be honest, Bai Ningyuan's net worth was much richer than him, and this kind of momentum had no effect at all in front of Bai Ningyuan, Bai Ningyuan was completely at ease.

After a long time, Thomas Toll's eyelids drooped again, and he said lightly to Bai Ningyuan: "I think, you may have misunderstood something, the reason why you have the opportunity to sit in front of me is only because of Mr. Weinstein, well, I repeat, I am not interested in this project, then, in order to avoid your misunderstanding again, I think my attitude can be more resolute, so now you can leave ......" Thomas * Tur looked at Bai Ningyuan, and said slowly, after speaking, he didn't care what Bai Ningyuan's reaction was, so he lowered his head directly, no longer paid attention to Bai Ningyuan, and concentrated on handling his own affairs, completely treating Bai Ningyuan in front of him as a transparent person.

The atmosphere was suddenly quiet and a little eerie......
