Chapter 22 The Paranoid Meets the Takeover

Not every Hollywood director will focus on filming without asking about his affairs. When encountering a director of a mother-like type, Ronan is so annoyed that he has not made a decision after interviewing so many people.

Sign the agreement first and hold James Huang's project. Even if James Huang sees something, he will turn a blind eye.

Besides, this project is really rich.

Because Ronan has seen all the works in this series in his previous life, from "The God of Death 1" to "The God of Death 5".

James Huang is the director of the first part of this series, and what he calls Glenn Morgan should be the most important screenwriter.

"Copyright is owned by you and your friends?" Ronan further said: "Can you represent his opinion?"

James Huang said very surely: "Yes! It is my greatest wish for me and Glenn."

Ronan reminded: "Your agent's side..."

Although the agents are very sleek and will not easily confront others, if the agent strongly opposes the previous talks, there may be twists and turns.

"I will convince Edward." James Huang immediately responded, "The copyright owner is Glenn and me."

Finally, I met someone who is willing to invest and is willing to let him be the director. The opportunity is so rare.

Give up now is just for a better future.

Ronan was very calm and even a little embarrassed, as if he had promised to invest in James Huang's project, how much it would cost.

He shook hands with James Huang: "I hope we can reach a formal agreement." He deliberately diverted James Huang's attention: "The Human Purge Project is in urgent need of director."

James Huang shook Ronan's hand hard: "A deal will definitely be reached."

If I hadn't seen Shahai Entertainment urgently need a director and liked him very much, how could he make such additional requests?

Ronan is not worried about his agent's problem. James Huang's idea of ​​directing his script is too strong, and he even binds himself. If someone stops him, he will only kick him aside.

Shahai Entertainment doesn't mind negotiating with non-agents either.

Hollywood's industry union and brokerage union agreements, members registered with the union must negotiate to obtain work.

Of course, regulations are one thing, reality is another.

According to the Entertainment Act, brokers must pass the assessment and hold a certificate to work, but a group called managers are emerging rapidly and they are negotiating for clients without obtaining a legal license.

He roughly understood that Edward and James Huang signed a contract for the first time, and the valid contract time stipulated by law is one year. There is not much liquidated damages for brokers to terminate contracts in Hollywood, and there is no case where brokerage companies or brokers turn against each other and ban customers.

Because the law stipulates that the broker can only sign a contract with the client for three years at most, and cannot provide the client with sufficient work choices for three consecutive months, and the client has the right to automatically terminate the contract.

This is the opposite of the other side of the Pacific Ocean.

Brokers are always service providers, and the price paid by customers to get rid of brokers is relatively not high.

Ronan sent James Huang out of the office and accompanied him and Edward to walk out. Before he could reach the company's door, an Arab in a suit walked in.

"Hi, Ronan." The Arab waved to Ronan.

Ronan smiled and replied, "Good morning, Saleh."

The person who came in was Saleh Zayed, the leader of the steadfast party.

When James Huang saw the typical Arab face, he couldn't help but nodded slightly. With the support of Middle East oil wealthy people, Shahai Entertainment's funds will definitely be fine.

"Saleh, let me introduce you to a few friends."

When Saleh came over, Ronan introduced: "This is James Huang, and he is basically sure to serve as the director of our "Human Purge Plan".

After hearing our "Human Purge Plan", Saleh was in a good mood and quickly shook hands with James Huang.

Ronan continued: "This is Mr. Edward, the agent of Director Huang."

Then, he specifically introduced to James Huang and Edward: "This is Prince Saleh Zayed from the Emirates of Abu Dhabi."

After James Huang greeted Edward, he looked at each other and said that Ronan Anderson was indeed not simple.

The support of a prince of an oil country means that funding is not a problem at all.

After a few simple greetings, James Huang and Edward quickly said goodbye and left.

Ronan brought Saleh into the office.

"The preparations went smoothly?" Saleh asked with concern: "The director is sure."

Ronan took a brand new cup, poured him a glass of water, and said, "It's just a verbal agreement, and there will be negotiations later."

"Preparing for a movie is more complicated than I thought." Saleh sighed.

"This is just beginning." Ronan said the truth, "Robert is inspecting the shooting venue, equipment rental and actor auditions have not yet begun... When the director is in place, the speed of these work will be accelerated."

Saleh nodded: "I benefit a lot from professional people doing professional things." He turned to ask: "That director Huang is also a minority?"

"Chinese." Ronan fooled him in time: "I think about it carefully. It is not appropriate to find a white director for such a film. A minority director is the best choice. He can better understand the character's situation and shoot what we need."

Saleh gave a thumbs up in admiration: "Ronan, you are right! There are too few people in Hollywood who have such a state of thought."

Ronan smiled, with a standard white left tone: "Every ethnic group and every group are equal."

"Yes." Saleh nodded repeatedly: "I said that I should let professionals do professional things, but there are some idiots in Abu Dhabi who want to interfere with the projects invested by the Investment Bureau."

Ronan's eyes shook slightly without notice and said, "I can't accept anyone who is not a film professional."

The last time he went to Abu Dhabi, he learned that the Abu Dhabi screening industry is quite mature, but the film production industry is still ready to start.

Saleh has been in close contact with Ronan and immediately said, "I will be transferred back to Abu Dhabi next week, and I will suppress the voices of those idiots."

Ronan felt relieved and invested so much energy in Saleh, but it was indeed not in vain.

"Are you promoted?" he said, "Congratulations!"

Saleh laughed, in a good mood, and said sincerely: "Actually, I came here to say thank you. Without your trip to Abu Dhabi, I wouldn't have been promoted so quickly."

Ronan still looked as humble and good as a good person: "Don't say that. Saleh, you helped me."

Saleh knew in his heart that it was really rare for a person who was as down-to-earth as Ronan.

Luo Nan looked at the time: "I will treat you at noon and see you off."

Saleh nodded: "Yes." The next time he met, he said: "I really want to see the Human Purge Plan earlier."

Ronan replied with a smile: "When the movie is made, I will send you a copy first."

"Okay!" Saleh was very happy: "That's all."

He said again: "Ronan, if you need my help, you can call or come to Abu Dhabi to find me."

Ronan was like an old friend, and he didn't be polite to Saleh: "I can."

Saleh took a sip of water and said, "Especially when you need to raise a movie, don't forget me, this is my achievement."

Ronan walked over and patted Saleh's arm: "I can't forget anyone, I can't forget you."

…………

On Thirteenth Street where Shahai Entertainment is located, a car has just driven out of the parking lot.

"Ronan Anderson agreed to invest in your script?" Edward speeded up: "Are you kidding?"

James Huang nodded: "It's true."

Edward couldn't help but mutter: "Is there something wrong with this person's head?"

James Huang glanced at him, and Edward immediately shut up. The result was too unexpected.

Originally, he won the director of "Shocking Scream" for James Huang, but who knew that this guy had a bundled plan, but the duck flew away.

Finally, it was difficult to get along with Ronan Anderson's line, but James Huang played binding again.

If it weren't for the one-year brokerage contract that was about to expire, except for James Huang and Glenn Morgan, there would be no client who had no climate under his command, and he would not be able to bear anything.

Now, the paranoid has met a sucker.

Can that project be successful? He has also read the script. The core concept is the oriental one. Can the horror of the oriental style be sold well among American audiences?

I guess that guy Ronan Anderson couldn't find a suitable director and was in a hurry.

After all, he is a well-known prodigal son in the circle.

Edward suddenly remembered the Arab. Ronan Anderson had oil funds. Perhaps he didn't take Arab money seriously.

If there is an unreliable script, a somewhat paranoid director, and a sucker investor, will that project be miserable?

Forget it, there is no need to think so much and so far. It is important to let James Huang and Glenn Morgan continue to sign the contract and get a large commission income.
