The Best Entertainment Era

　　 In a business club north of Burbank, Ronan met Gray Enrique from Lionsgate's Distribution Department.

　　 The two are also familiar, and after a few simple greetings, they enter the topic.

　　 Gray Enrique asked tentatively: "I see media reports that Mr. Anderson went to Abu Dhabi for the premiere some time ago? Is this going well?"

　　 Ronan said truthfully and falsely: "The hospitality is hard to come by. The issuer over there has repeatedly invited me, so I had to go over and take a look.

　　 Gray Enrique asked again: "Is this trip smooth?"

　　 "It went well." Ronan certainly understood what he was asking.

　　 "So..." Gray Enrique simply said, "Is the financing of "Reaper Coming" successful?"

　　 He watched Ronan calmly and said, "I heard that the preparation work on James Huang's side has been steadily advancing."

　　 Ronan thought for a while, and he is about to hold a project press conference recently, and said: "Generally, it is going smoothly."

　　 Gray Enrique smiled and said: "The horror and horror scene created by Director James Huang is unforgettable. I believe this will be a successful horror film."

　　 Ronan smiled, but did not answer.

　　 Gray Enrique had a not-so-good premonition, and still said: "Mr. Anderson, we have agreed that this new film directed by James Huang will be given priority to Lionsgate for distribution by Sandsea Entertainment."

　　 Ronan remembered what he said at the beginning. He did not deny it positively, and of course he would not admit it. He just said: "The film has just been approved, and it has not even been made public. It is too early to talk about release."

　　 The difference between success and newcomers is so big that he almost broke his legs for the release of "Human Removal Project". As a result, the preparations for "Death Is Coming" started, and someone took the initiative to talk about the release.

　　 "The sooner the release is negotiated, the more the crew can work with peace of mind." Gray Enrique is still trying: "The subsequent shooting and production will also go smoother."

　　 Ronan casually put forward a very powerful reason: "This film didn't even start shooting, and he rashly signed a distribution contract with someone. This is irresponsible to your publisher. I can't do this kind of thing."

　　 "Uh..." Gray Enrique couldn't find a word to deal with in an instant.

　　 After a while, he reacted: "Issuance always involves risks. We are willing to take risks and we have the ability to take risks."

Ronan is so stupid that he will sign a distribution contract with Lionsgate. Don’t say he’s operating the acquisition of the distribution company. Even if the acquisition fails, the foundation laid by the "Human Removal Project" is also behind this film. Can be up for sale.

　　 Of course, he is not an unbelieving person. At the beginning, he agreed with Lions Gate Pictures to give priority to Lions Gate Pictures as the publisher of "Death Is Coming" under the same conditions.

　　 "Are you really willing to take risks?" Ronan asked specially.

　　 Gray Enrique couldn't immediately deny what he just said, nodding and saying, "Of course."

　　 Ronan nodded: "I can feel the sincerity of Lionsgate."

　　 Gray Enrique looked at Ronan, I can’t feel your sincerity!

Ronan took out a script and accompanying plan from the briefcase he carried with him, pushed it in front of Gray Enrique, and said, "I am also very sincere. This is the most popular action movie today, Sha Hai Entertainment has also entered the preparatory stage. If we can cooperate with Lionsgate, I believe this will be as successful as the "Human Removal Project."

　　 Gray Enrique took the script and only flipped through two pages. When he saw that the actor turned out to be an Arab agent, his head was dizzy.

　　 Is this movie a joke?

　　 "The Arabs are the protagonists?" Gray Enrique asked tentatively.

　　 Ronan replied very seriously: "The Human Removal Project has proven that minority audiences can support the box office of a small and medium production."

　　 Gray Enrique is sure that there is no result today. After putting away the script, he stood up and proactively said goodbye: "I will go back and study this project for a few days, and I will give you a reply later."

　　 Ronan shook hands with him: "I hope it is good news."

　　 After Gray Enrique left, Ronan returned to Shahai Pictures and met Edward, who was waiting for a long time in the office, who was James Huang’s agent.

　　 The agent looked a lot fatter, and his face became more honest and kind.

　　 "Go ahead, Edward." Ronan didn't seem to know the intention of this guy: "What can you do with me."

　　 Edward smiled holy: "I haven't seen you for a long time. I heard that you are back from Germany. I came here to see you..."

　　 Ronan raised his hand to stop him from continuing: "If you have something to say directly, I don't have much time, and there will be something later."

　　 This is true. He invited Scott of Merrill Lynch to meet at the company.

　　 Edward still smiled: "James' pay. The "Human Removal Project" was a huge success. James also received $300,000 in the film crew of "Reaper Is Coming. Isn't it inappropriate?"

　　 Ronan reminded: "Edward, Shahai Entertainment and James have signed an agreement. We are all abiding by the contract."

Edward could hear the meaning behind this, and he quickly said: "I am also a person who abides by the contract, but if James' salary is too low, the crew will not be persuasive, right? Besides, it seems that Shahai Entertainment is too stingy. It doesn’t sound good to go out."

　　 "I don't care." Ronan said casually.

　　 The relationship between the producer and the agent can be said to be a typical cooperative and opposed relationship.

　　 Edward's face remained unchanged. Just as he wanted to speak, Ronan said again: "Is this what you meant, or James?"

　　 "I mean." The agent must be back at this time: "James doesn't know about it."

　　 Ronan said lightly: "It is impossible to change the contract and increase the salary."

　　 Edward's face is a bit ugly, this young producer is too strong.

　　 "Let's do this, let's sign an agreement." Ronan had already thought out a coping strategy. The previous strength was to suppress Edward's momentum, so as not to mention the messy conditions: "a box office bonus contract."

　　 Edward thought for a while, and said, "Yes."

　　 Ronan directly stated the conditions: "If the box office of "Death is Coming" reaches 50 million US dollars in North America, James can get the box office bonus equivalent to the film pay."

　　 "50 million dollars?" Edward couldn't help but his eyes widened: "Ronan, this condition is too much!"

　　 In the entire North American film market, only a few movies with a box office of over 50 million each year?

　　 "15 million US dollars! The box office reaches the production cost to cash in the bonus!" Edward said.

Ronan shook his head and said: "30 million US dollars in box office, 300,000 US dollars in box office bonuses! One-time payment!" Seeing what Edward wanted to say~www.readwn.com~ He emphasized: "I have made concessions! Edward , Don’t you have confidence in James than I have confidence in James?"

　　 Edward thought for a while and said, "Okay. We will sign the agreement as soon as possible."

　　 Ronan smiled: "No problem."

　　 This kind of box office bonus is different from the box office share. It is a one-time payment. As long as the North American box office of "Death is Coming" reaches 30 million U.S. dollars, regardless of the final number, there is only 300,000 U.S. dollars in box office bonus.

　　 Not long after Edward left, Scott from Merrill Lynch arrived.

　　 Ronan asked directly: "Scott, do you take personal work?"

　　 Scott immediately said vigilantly: "Sorry, Mr. Anderson, my work ethic does not allow me to do this."

　　 Ronan laughed: "In fact, it does not conflict with your job, but also about securities and stock markets." He took out an envelope from the drawer and pushed it to Scott: "This will not violate your professional ethics."

　　 Scott glanced at the envelope, estimated the thickness, but did not speak.

Ronan pushed another file bag in front of him and said: "This is an old friend of mine. He is a real rich man. He is very interested in Nasdaq. It contains their contact information, email address and Address. Scott, what you have to do is very simple, every day... No, every half a day, send him the details of the most gratifying high-quality stocks. You can also call him or visit him. To make him believe that Nasdaq has unlimited prospects in the next few years."

　　 This matter does not conflict with his own work. Scott thought about it for a moment, picked up the envelope, squeezed it, and said, "I will start as soon as possible."

　　 Ronan lowered his voice and discussed with Scott.
