Football?

Hearing Charlize's words, Ryan remembered the team he had forgotten for a long time, after buying Manchester United, he had only been to the site once, and the affairs of the team were completely handed over to the management, and the accounting was handled by a team of professional accountants, and there was no need to worry about what tricks those people played.

In the words of the British media, he is definitely the least attentive of all the team owners in the Premier League.

However, as time went on, the initial dissatisfaction of Manchester United fans gradually faded, and in their eyes, the United team may have been lucky to be handed over to Ryan.

It has been several years since the takeover was completed, and instead of taking on any debt, Manchester United has spent a large amount of money on reinforcements every year.

As Ryan promised, he hasn't earned a penny from Manchester United over the years, the most profitable team in the world, all the income is invested in team building, and under the premise of the Premier League's ticket price has been steady, but it is only in the middle of the Premier League.

Ryan himself didn't think about using Manchester United to make money, otherwise he would have sold the team long ago.

Just some time ago, the Abu Dhabi consortium from the Middle East made tentative contact with him and offered 1.2 billion pounds to buy Manchester United, but he refused without hesitation.

The other party is not short of money, and even if you want to talk about real net worth, most of their wealth is reflected in the stock market, and these Middle Eastern tycoons are incomparable, but Ryan is also not short of money, Manchester United is a good platform to use it to promote Disney's various products.

For example, in the focus battle between Manchester United and Liverpool at Christmas, Taylor sang on stage at halftime; For example, before the release of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, a trailer was shown on the big screen for every Manchester United home game.

Although the move has been criticized by many British football legends, Ryan simply doesn't care, and no matter what those people are shouting about in the media, he will not move.

These people are not stupid, they are just talking about Manchester United's business strategy and violating English football traditions. It has never been directed against him, otherwise Ryan would not mind those gossip tabloids owned by the United News Corporation, revealing the old story of these celebrities, England's players, old and new, professional......

Europe's Chinese team isn't just talking.

And David Beckham, who has not had a comfortable time at Real Madrid since leaving Manchester United, Victoria? David Beckham had asked Nicole to help with her move to the LA Galaxy, and she couldn't wait to get into Hollywood.

Ryan just listened to Nicole. I didn't care much, if Nicole was willing to help, the couple who barely broke into the upper class of Hollywood would definitely have a much smoother road in the future.

After lunch with Charlize, the two held hands and walked on the path between the palm trees in the manor, pacing slowly, enjoying a rare leisure time.

Sparse palm trees are scattered throughout the garden, and cobblestone paved roads from Italy zigzag into the back garden. In the light of the midday sun, it reflected the Dao light, scattered on the low iron trees, leaving specks of light on the dark green leaves.

"This path."

Charlize took Ryan in one hand. One pointed to the path in front of him, "Some time ago, I asked people to re-pave it, and the previous stone road was too long. Once rain or dew falls on it, it is easy to slip. ”

"As long as you like." Ryan stopped and looked at a few unfamiliar trees nearby. He asked, "Was this just transplanted?" ”

"yes." Charlize cocked his feet, picked a green leaf, and stuffed it to Ryan, "This is magnolia, evergreen all year round, I heard from a friend to buy it from Florida, it is said that it can absorb fluoride, sulfur dioxide and other polluting gases, and has the effect of refreshing the air, but unfortunately the flowering will not wait until May and June next year." ”

Charlize has always regarded this place as her home, and often improves and decorates the facilities in the manor according to her wishes, Ryan knows this, and has not interfered, if she is happy, it is not a big deal to tear down all the houses in the manor.

"Stand here." Charlize pushed Ryan to the magnolia and pulled a cell phone out of the pocket of his slacks, "Don't move, let me take a picture." ”

After the shutter clicked on the phone, Ryan walked over, and Charlize fiddled with the latest Motorola phone, which was the first time he had seen a touchscreen smartphone in his life.

Although as early as 2000, Motorola launched the Tiantuo series of smart touchscreen phones, Ryan has no interest in this difficult old antique compared to the smartphones used in his previous life.

"This is a Motorola A728."

Seeing that Ryan was a little curious, Charlize simply stuffed the phone into his hand and explained, "It's not on the market yet, Motorola wants to find me to endorse this phone, and specially sent a few for me to try, and there are still in the storeroom, if you need it, just look for Lisa directly." ”

"What are you thinking?"

Seeing that Ryan didn't pay attention to the phone, but was distracted, Charlize pinched his arm, "Do you want to hit Motorola's idea?" ”

"Of course not." Ryan shrugged his shoulders and handed the phone back to Charlize, "Let's go back." ”

IN THE FUTURE, HE HAS BECOME ONE OF THE MAJOR SHAREHOLDERS OF 'FACEBOOK', BUT WHAT ABOUT TWITTER?

Ryan was thinking about this problem just now, vaguely remembering that Twitter seemed to be coming out soon, and Twitter involved some patents and technologies in blogging, and seemed to have a close relationship with the founder of the blog.

BY THE WAY, AS THE NUMBER OF USERS OF 'FACEBOOK' INCREASES, IT IS ABOUT TO START A NEW FINANCING PLAN, SO DISNEY WILL ALSO TRY TO GET A FOOT IN IT.

If possible, he would also merge 30 percent of his own shares into Disney in order to gain a controlling stake.

Anyway, Disney is no match for Time Warner and News Corp in terms of traditional media, so it would be better to focus on the network with unlimited potential in the future.

Of course, he can only provide a general direction, which will definitely involve a lot of very professional things, which are handled by a professional team.

Back at the villa, Charlize went to the locker room to change into a women's slim-fitting suit. After coming out, he said to Ryan, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, thinking about things, "I'm going to the company, and I'm going to participate in a party organized by the Beverly Hills Business Association in the evening, so don't wait for me for dinner." ”

"Hmm."

Ryan looked up at Charlize as he walked along, and the South African diamond leaned over and kissed him on the lips and waved out of the villa.

Standing at the door of the villa, after watching Charlize drive out of the manor in his black Bentley, Ryan returned to the second floor and opened the door to the study. Sitting in front of the laptop.

After returning from New York, he began to write another screenplay, as he had written novels before, and quickly sorted out the outline.

The script is not "Transformers", the kind of pure popcorn movie, he just provides a general idea, and the screenwriters under him are more than enough to deal with.

Yes, he has a special affection for the series, but does the storyline of the live-action film version matter? As long as it is generally logically possible, it will work.

Now Ryan thinks about it. It is the script of the film version of "Warcraft", and he has been thinking about this series for a long time, and he has been thinking about the trade-offs. After all, movies are not games, and it is impossible to create so many heroes, and it is a must to intercept several of them as the main characters.

And his protagonist. Fell to the human kingdom Lordaeron Prince Arthas? Minethiel's head.

From birth, Alsace was destined to take on great responsibilities, under the influence of the excellent training of his predecessors and a good home education. Alsace grew into a good prince, kind, passionate, upright, and brave...... He possessed almost all the good qualities that everyone in the kingdom wanted him to have.

The entire kingdom of Lordaeron is proud to have such a prince.

Is this Ryan about Arthas? Part of Minahir's character, if he wants to bear the hopes of all and take on the responsibility of the country he loves, he must have something else - power!

Slender fingers tapped quickly on the keyboard, and lines of letters appeared in the document on the screen.

Act 1 of the third scene.

Time: The sun has just risen. Exterior: The rising sun illuminates the field in front of a huge set of suspended armor at the Lordaeron Palace Training Ground.

In the bright sun, Arthas's blonde hair shone even more, and he looked at the armor with longing and fantasy in his eyes.

Note: The camera zooms in - Alsace's eyes show the inner world of the prince.

The armor turned into a tall and savage orc that had been wreaking havoc on Lordaeron, and the other party was burning and looting in the village of Steinbrad, and the young Arthas rushed forward with a heavy hammer in his hand, exerting all his strength to fight the orc, and successfully killed it, and more than a dozen villagers who escaped from danger sent him heartfelt thanks and blessings.

Alsace's inner monologue: Strength, only strength can defend my country and people!

The camera zooms out - back to reality.

With the fantasy, Arthas subconsciously made a fighting move against that armor, he was agile and had a talent for it.

Camera Cuts - At the entrance to the training ground, Terenus? Minethil II and the dwarven hero Muradin? Copperbeard stood there.

Terenus: Muradin, I hope you will teach Arthas yourself in the coming years.

Muradin? The bronze beard bowed slightly: This is my honor, Your Majesty.

The camera pans around - in the middle of the training ground, a peer rushes to Arthas's side.

Varian? Ureon: Arthas, I have good news for you, Gianna? Prodmore ......

For more than a week to come, Ryan spent a lot of time on the script outside of work, but in 2005, he had to go to China.

Ryan accepted an official invitation from Shanghai to visit Wèn. (To be continued......)
