Chapter 60 Regret

"I'm very sorry if I couldn't pick you up at the airport."

In the hotel suite, Saleh opened his arms and hugged Ronan and said, "I have something to deal with today."

Ronan separated from Saleh and said with a smile: "It's okay." He distanced apart, looked at Saleh up and down, and said deliberately: "I look like a high-powered person."

Saleh smiled and said, "Who is the position of high power, isn't it because of your wealth."

But Ronan shook his head: "Don't say that, this is the result of your efforts."

An Arab prince who is willing to do things seems to have some power as long as he doesn't cause any trouble.

"The film is about to be released, and it is a visible result." Saleh said seriously: "We have watched all the copies you mailed in before. It's really good. Compared with the image of Arabs in past Hollywood movies, the changes have been made.

Ronan glanced at Saleh and said at the right time: "This movie shows one thing: not everyone is as hostile to Arabs as Jews in the United States or even in North America."

Saleh nodded repeatedly: "Well, I have seen media reports in the United States, and many people agree with the theme and opinions of the film."

"The response of this film was unexpectedly good," Ronan said again: "I think it's time to make the Arab characters the protagonists of the movie."

Saleh asked, “Do you have a plan?”

Ronan took out the script and plan that had been prepared and said, "This is a real mainstream movie, and the genre is the most popular action movie in the world now, called "Ace Agents."

Saleh looked through it and just saw the story and character, he nodded secretly. The Arabs also had a day to save the world.

He hadn't forgotten to ask: "Is there a support from the Investment Bureau?"

"This is a real big production with a budget of $20 million to $30 million." Ronan said sincerely: "When filming "Human Purge", I deeply felt the resistance from Hollywood. Under the instigation of some forces, the Producers League and the National Children's Welfare Bureau have both gone to the crew to find trouble. Without the support of the Investment Bureau, the "Human Purge" could not be completed at all."

Saleh nodded slightly. He heard Ronan mention it while on the phone before, and looked at the news coming from the United States later. It seemed that the young actors in the crew also talked about the Children's Welfare Bureau in an interview.

These institutions are going to make trouble for the crew, who is behind the scenes? It must be those damn Jews.

Ronan also said: "The films released by North America were just founded last year by Lionsgate. This is a newly established small film company controlled by Canadian funds. It is less influenced by Hollywood's traditional power, but its distribution capabilities are limited. Otherwise, more people will see this movie."

It is easy to gain trust by adding a little lies to the truth: "The overseas distribution rights are sold to Sony Columbia Pictures, a film company that is deeply influenced by RB funds."

Saleh empathized with it: "It's not easy, Ronan, you did something we haven't done for decades."

Ronan smiled: "The firm support of the Investment Bureau has given me the greatest help." He sighed softly: "This new project, without the support of the Investment Bureau, I am isolated in Hollywood."

"Ronan, I will definitely support you!" Saleh said.

Ronan nodded: "I believe this."

The two talked about other things again. When Saleh said goodbye, he picked up the script and plan given to him by Ronan: "I don't have enough power now. I will send these to Brother Mansour as soon as possible. He will go to Saudi Arabia and will not be back on the day of the premiere."

Ronan is not in a hurry. It is useless to worry about financing tens of millions of dollars.

"By the way, there's one more thing." Ronan kept in touch with Saleh when he was in Los Angeles, and mentioned on the phone before: "I have a movie project, and a horror movie needs financing."

He sighed: "I couldn't find a suitable director at the time, and those famous white directors asked me to change the script of "Human Purge Plan". I never compromised. Fortunately, I finally found the current director James Huang. In order to keep him, I had to sign a 1+1 director contract with him. After "Human Purge Plan", I invested in another horror film of his."

Saleh nodded slightly, unlike others. He has been in Los Angeles, contacted Hollywood, and encountered various cold treatments. It is normal to know that this situation is.

Ronan continued: "I plan to hold another financing meeting to raise funds for the filming of this film."

"A little thing." Saleh said directly: "I'll ask someone to help you with the relevant procedures. Ronan, if you need help, just speak up, don't be polite to me."

In his eyes, Ronan and his friendship with Abu Dhabi have experienced the severe test of the Jewish forces in Hollywood and are trustworthy.

After Saleh passed the script and plan to Mansour, the project probably impressed the chief. A three-person team of Abu Dhabi Investment Bureau came to the Chiefs Hotel to assist Ronan and his group in handling various official procedures for the financing meeting.

This time, Ronan also has a complete plan and has brought a lot of materials. The financing will be held after the premiere, and the location will be the lobby of the last time.

At the same time, Ronan also asked Robert to contact the investors of the Human Purge Program to give them corresponding returns.

With the assistance of Saleh, the media in Abu Dhabi will also send reports in time.

Although the three-year investment agreement was signed at the beginning, Ronan made the plan with the greatest difficulty. Now the project is progressing smoothly and we need to attract more investments next. The returns of these investors are undoubtedly the best bait.

…………

At the entrance of the Chiefs Hotel, Hassan, who had a beard, got out of the car. As soon as he entered the hotel, he saw his friend Hussein.

"So late?" Hussein came over.

Hassan straightened his headscarf and said, "Adni and Alyssa are in a bad mood today. Alas, too many wives are also troublesome." He said in the tone of a person who has experienced it, "Just be good for two wives. Don't marry four more, it will have a headache and a waist hurts."

Hussein looked at Hassan's body that has been losing weight in recent years and said, "I don't plan to remarry, it's important to make more money."

Hassan agrees deeply: "Abu Dhabi has developed very fast in recent years. If we don't find new channels to make money, we will all fall into the poor."

Hussein glanced at the watch and pointed to the elevator: "Let's go up."

When the two walked into the elevator, Hussein turned to the topic: "You also received a call from Robert from Shahai Entertainment, right? The investment contract was signed for three years, and it was only less than a year before we could make a profit?"

Hassan touched his beard and said, "It should be no mistake. I have learned from my friends from the Investment Bureau that Shahai Entertainment is preparing to settle the last investment and profit accounts with the Investment Bureau, and it will probably be settled soon." His eyes flashed with a gleam: "Shahai Entertainment raised US$11 million in Abu Dhabi, not only returning all costs, but also bringing profits up to US$9 million!"

Hussein exclaimed: "Almost double the profit, huge profits! More profit than oil! That young man Ronan Anderson is so powerful?"

Hassan nodded: "I specifically asked my American partners to ask, this movie was a big box office, so the profit was very high."

"I'd like to invest more money if I knew it." Hussein regretted it a little, "How long will it take for us to double our profits to spend $300,000 in business?"

When the elevator arrived, the two of them got on the elevator. Hassan said again: "Don't mention it, the opportunity has passed. At least we are more profitable than those who are unwilling to invest."

Hussein sighed: "I just think that there should be more investments in such a good opportunity."

After leaving the elevator, a person from the Investment Bureau led Hassan and Hussein into a conference room. They saw the busy young man at a glance.

"Hello, Mr. Anderson, we're meeting again." Hassan was the first to go over and say hello, and Hussein shook hands with Ronan.

Ronan has a very good memory and said with a smile: "Mr. Hassan, Mr. Hussein, I'm glad to see you again." He didn't say nonsense and said directly: "Thank you for investing in supporting my movies last time. Now that the income from the film project has been settled, I'm ready to fulfill the contract. Of course, if you persist in the three-year period, I can wait for a while."

Only the fool would continue to wait. Hassan and Hussein said one after another: "Let's settle now."

Ronan personally received the financial statements in both English and Arabic and handed them over to the two, saying: "This is the film's income and expenditure and net profit details. Each one has annotation. If the two have questions, we can answer them, and you can also consult a professional lawyer."

Hassan is good at finance. He looked through it and asked a few questions. After Ronan answered it one by one, he borrowed a fax machine to pass on a copy to the lawyer and accountant.

This report is not only beautiful, but also for planning considerations, all entries are within the scope of laws and regulations, and even professionals cannot find many problems.
