Chapter 197 Civilian Agent
Looking at the young man who was only twenty-two or three years old opposite, Qiao Wen Hart instantly remembered the information about him and knew that he was definitely a young rich man of tens of millions.
In such a downturn in the economy, those who are interested in buying a house must have enough confidence.
In other words, this person is not short of money.
"Mr. Anderson." Joven Hart showed a professional smile: "If you want to buy high-end real estate, you will definitely find the right person for me. Not only Los Angeles, but also the high-end real estate resources in the entire Southern California area, I have detailed registrations."
Ronan said: "Mr. Tom Cruise said you are a capable and reliable high-end real estate agent. As a good friend, I believe in Tom's vision."
This person was introduced to him by Tom Cruise.
Joven Hart said, "More than two-thirds of Mr. Tom Cruise's property are traded by me."
Luo Nan nodded slightly and said, "I hope you can find a suitable property for me."
"It must be." Chauvin Hart asked directly: "Mr. Anderson, can you tell me what you need?"
Ronan thought for a little while and said, "Be quiet, be a certain distance away from the neighbors on both sides. It is best to have rich settlements, such as Beverly Hills, Brentwood neighborhoods, Malibu... Forget it, Malibu doesn't need to consider it."
He remembered some news from his previous life that the Southern California area always encountered wildfires, and Malibu was the hardest hit area for wildfires. There were several wildfires raging, and many luxury houses were burned.
Qiao Wen Hart had taken out his notebook and quickly recorded Ronan's request.
Ronan continued: "The facilities must be complete, especially private theaters. You know, I am a producer and may watch some movies at home temporarily."
Qiao Wen Hart focused on this article.
"The area is slightly larger, not too large, between one acre and two acres." Ronan said again: "The architectural style should be modern, and I have no interest in ancient things."
For this, Qiao Wen Hart was not surprised. Young rich people all like luxury houses with a sense of technology and modern atmosphere.
Ronan finally said: "The price is better to be cheaper, the property rights must be clear, and you can apply for a mortgage. There is no need to worry about the time. It can be done this year or next year. Prepare more candidates for me."
"No problem," said Joven Hart.
These are all very normal requirements. Compared with those strange customers, Ronan's requirements are not complicated.
"That's all for the time being," said Ronan. "If I think of anything else, call you."
Qiao Wen Hart put away his notebook and said, "Do I contact you directly if I find the property?"
Ronan thought for a while and left Connie's phone number to him: "Contact my assistant in advance and make an appointment for me to go and see it again."
Several crews are filming overseas, and he is preparing to go to Europe, especially the crew of "Spy Shadows", so he should pay more attention.
This is the first mainstream commercial production of Shahai Entertainment in the true sense, which is related to subsequent investments.
If it can be successful, you can accumulate relevant experience and enter the front-line production on this basis.
After saying this, Ronan did not stay for a long time and returned to the company.
Midway through, he also received a call from Tom Cruise. Tom Cruise asked about the relevant situation and also said that he would help Ronan pay attention to the appropriate property.
During this stock market crash, there are many wealthy people in the Los Angeles area going bankrupt.
Ronan was not polite and happily accepted Tom Cruise's help.
Among the top figures in Hollywood, the only one who can really get in love with Ronan is currently Tom Cruise.
Accepting Tom Cruise's kindness can also deepen the exchanges between the two sides.
The relationship between the two became deeper, and Ronan also asked about the status of Tom Cruise's divorce case.
Perhaps it was Ronan's last statement that played a role, perhaps it was Tom Cruise who had enough of Nicole Kidman, or perhaps it was a requirement of Science Education that Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman were already dealing with matters related to the divorce.
If nothing unexpected happens, these two people will divorce sooner than in their previous lives.
In July, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was first released in East and Southeast Asia. The film's response was quite good, but it was not as enthusiastic as imagined.
In the entire Eastern country, except for the slightly better winding, the other markets have received mediocre reactions.
Many viewers may not realize the theme under the martial arts guise after watching this movie, but like when Ronan first watched this movie in his previous life, he always felt that something was very wrong in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and was not exciting at all.
Danny Donald, who is far away in the indescribable city, has many people who are sleeping and leaving early in the Oriental Cinema.
Even though many people have made countless excuses, it is impossible to deny that it can be seen from Ang Lee's insistence on writing the first version of the script in English that this is a product that caters to Western audiences.
This conclusion made Ronan more confident. The more he catered to Western audiences, the more likely he would make a profit in the North American copyright he had.
Ronan has contacted Xu Ligong and Ang Lee and passed on the Oscar plan preliminarily formulated by the Embassy Film Company to them. "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" will not be released in the Western region in the short term.
Countries and regions such as the United Kingdom, Europe, Australia and Latin America that are deeply influenced by the North American market will only be released after the Oscar nomination list is announced in December or next year.
The two sides also had an interview in Los Angeles and quickly reached an agreement on the impact of the Oscars, which is in line with the interests and needs of both parties.
If you can get nominations for Best Foreign Language Film or other awards, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" will surely gain a great reputation and will most likely gain more commercial benefits.
Ronan made it clear that he would help Ang Lee apply for the best director nomination and help "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" apply for the best film nomination at the same time.
This is also mobilizing the enthusiasm of Ang Lee and Xu Ligong.
Then, Ronan got news that Ang Lee had contacted a public relations company in Los Angeles and seemed to be preparing for the awards season.
Ang Lee has been in Hollywood for many years and naturally understands the rules of the Oscars.
Ronan went to Europe again, and the filming of "Spy Shadows" has begun. The crew entered the art capital for filming with permission from the Paris City Hall.
On the set, Ronan, the producer, remains silent as he deserves, and the commander who shoots the set is always the director.
"Start!" At the command of director Paul Greengras, the crew began shooting a street scene.
Matt Damon wore a very ordinary dark thick-lined sweater. After getting off the car, he walked into a convenience store on the side of the road, bought some things, and got into a car driven by Jennifer Garner.
Then, the two began to kiss...
"Stop!" Paul Greengrass shouted: "This one has passed!"
Ronan stood outside the set, accompanied by George Clint, and both of them were very silent during the filming.
While the crew was temporarily resting, Ronan looked at Matt Damon. It would definitely be uncomfortable to shoot in a sweater this season.
But as an actor, this is just a basic quality.
You can't pull up more than a dozen air conditioners and blow cold air at Matt Damon.
Not to mention Matt Damon, even Tom Cruise cannot enjoy such exaggerated treatment.
Compared to Tom Cruise and Pierce Brosnan, Matt Damon has a very ordinary appearance and becomes more ordinary when wearing a thick-lined sweater, which is very consistent with the unique temperament of an ordinary person's "civilian agent".
"How is the crew?" Ronan asked.
George Clint whispered: "Overall, it's good. I've encountered some difficulties in filming in Europe, but they've all been solved."
He further said: "Paul Greengrass is a very skilled director. He likes to take a picture in person to bring the relationship between the film, the actor and himself closer. He also requires the photographer not to watch the actor's rehearsal in advance, so that the photographer will not know which actor will be next to speak during the formal shooting, so that he hopes that the handheld lens can move slightly slower, thus creating a sense of tension."
Ronan also believed in Paul Greengras' ability and said: "I hope this "Spy Shadow" can set a new benchmark for spy war movies."
George Clint seemed to be very confident: "I have a feeling that all the trilogies of this series were filmed, and the limelight might be overshadowed by "007" and "Mission Impossible."
"I hope so." Ronan also wanted to see such a result.
After the crew took a few more shots on the street, they moved to indoor shooting in the afternoon. The scenes are very important and can be regarded as one of the highlight scene settings in the script.
Bourne used the landline on his desk and pressed the redial button to try to find out whereabouts before his memory loss.
The answer was the hotel waiter. When he asked if a guest named Bourne had stayed there, the other party replied that no.
He immediately realized that he might have registered with the name John Kane on another passport, and it worked.
This meticulous detailed design highlights Bourne's outstanding logical thinking ability as an excellent agent, not just as a killer, but only violently facing each other.
Matt Damon performed very well and finished his shooting in one shot.
The actor's acting skills are far from top to top, but he has a temperament that can impress the camera and the audience, perhaps this is one of the reasons why many people call it cute.
At the end of the day's shooting, Ronan invited George Clint and Paul Greengrass to have supper together.
During the meal, I also focused on discussing and exchanging the film's next shooting plan.
After the filming of the Paris scene is completed, the crew will also switch to Switzerland to shoot.
The three of them had a long discussion. When they returned to the floor where they checked in, it was almost 10 o'clock in the evening. As soon as Ronan and George Clint left the elevator, they saw Matt Damon and Jennifer Garner entering the same room.
George Clint seemed to have known for a long time: "These two people came to Paris not long after they got together."
Ronan didn't say anything, it's not like this in Hollywood.
The crew continued to film the next day, and Ronan got news that Ben Affleck came to visit the crew.
Chapter completed!
