Chapter 63 Ronan is a good man
In the VIP room, seven or eight wealthy people are gathering to talk about movies and investment.
"Shahai Entertainment and Mr. Anderson are very abiding by the spirit of contract," Hassan said to his friends: "It's not even a year. Not only does it return the principal, but it also pays the profits it deserves. Among the American businessmen I have come into contact with, there are only people like Mr. Anderson who are honest and trustworthy."
Hussein responded with pride: "We get more than profits, our names and avatars will also appear in the movie."
"Isn't it just a profit of more than 200,000 US dollars?" The person who spoke was a very dark face: "Although we are not the truly rich people in Abu Dhabi, we are not short of more than 200,000 US dollars."
Hassan shook his head: "This is not a matter of more than 200,000 US dollars, but a ticket to enter. Shahai Entertainment and Ronan Anderson have brought new film projects. We are preparing to increase investment and benefit will be greater in the future."
The black-faced man asked, "Can you guarantee a certain profit?"
"You are also a businessman, you are so amateur!" Hussein retorted: "Can the foreign exchange business you are engaged in guaranteeing 100% profit?"
A black-faced person is speechless for a moment, and opportunities and risks are coexisting. This is the most basic business common sense.
A young man in his twenties said at this time: "Hasan, you must bring me this investment."
There was someone next to Hassan saying, "Aren't you going to introduce Ronan Anderson to me? Where are the people?"
"Aziz, are you going to invest too?" someone asked.
A man named Aziz smiled and said, "I missed the first opportunity and didn't want to miss the second time. The little money we earned from doing business with hard work will only depreciate. It's better to find a suitable channel to invest. I think Ronan Anderson is good."
"My brothers, don't you know?"
A strange voice suddenly sounded, and then a strange face entered the small circle: "Americans are not trustworthy! There are liars everywhere in Hollywood!"
Everyone else, including Hassan, looked at the stranger.
Fontaine said again: "As far as I know, Ronan Anderson is not famous in Hollywood, and your investment risks are extremely high!"
Just as I got here, I heard a group of people discussing Ronan Anderson and investing in his movies. Fontaine couldn't help but listen for a while. That guy from Hollywood actually had so many people taking the initiative to invest. Did you make a mistake?
And he has been in the Middle East for a long time and has not even seen the shadow of funds.
As pure French directors, they have a natural disgust for Hollywood. Without Hollywood, their film directors are in a 100 times better situation than they are now.
In North America, in Europe, in Arab countries, in Arab countries, and in Hollywood,?
Fontaine looked at investors who were trapped in Hollywood dream fairy tales based on his Arab identity and shouted: "Hollywood people are really not credible. They have too many tricks to cheat. You must be careful. That Ronan Anderson is not credible..."
"Who are you?" Hussein interrupted: "Why do you say that Mr. Anderson is unreliable? Please provide evidence!"
Hassan looked a little ugly, stared at Fontane and said, "Sir, the profit we have obtained from investing in Mr. Anderson is in his hand. Mr. Anderson fulfilled the contract. Do you tell me that such a person is not trustworthy? Oh, who are you? A stranger like you are trustworthy?"
He asked his companions: "Who do you know him?"
All of these people shook their heads.
Fontaine was about to refute, and Hassan saw Ronan and said, "Everyone, Mr. Anderson is there, let's go."
Everyone left, leaving Fang Dan alone standing here in a daze.
The situation is very serious, and it is not easy to overwhelm your competitors.
Fang Dan frowned and complained again that Mansur, the oil wealthy in the UAE, is so stingy!
On the other hand, Hassan introduced a lot of people to Ronan. After both sides said hello, the people who had no intention of investing quickly left, and the rest seemed to have reached some kind of tacit understanding with Hassan.
"Mr. Anderson," Hassan said in a low voice, "I have an idea."
Ronan nodded: "Please say it."
Hassan pointed to the remaining few people and said, "My friends and I are interested in investing in your new movie project."
"Okay." Ronan said with a smile: "We have had a successful cooperation, and I also want to continue working with my old friends."
Hassan said again: "Let's talk about it in another place?"
Ronan looked at his watch and said, "This way, we will talk in detail when the premiere is over."
"good."
The two sides quickly agreed to return to the Chiefs Hotel to discuss investment after the premiere of the movie.
In the lounge on the other side, Mohammed was brought in by a fat man.
Chief Mansour exchanged a few simple greetings with the Arab actor and asked directly: "Which kind of person is Ronan Anderson in your eyes?"
Mohammed was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect the chief to ask.
Mansour smiled: "Don't be nervous, just talk about private chats. You can say whatever you see and feel."
"Okay." Mohammed said without thinking, "Mr. Ronan Anderson is a good man, very kind to the crew, and to me, which is rare in Hollywood."
Mansour nodded slightly and asked again: "Did the crew encounter many difficulties? For example, release?"
Mohammed thought for a while and said, "Yes. As far as I know, Mr. Anderson contacted several distribution companies, but most of the companies refused to release our videos. I heard someone in the crew mention that the people from DreamWorks refuted Mr. Anderson in person and asked him to modify the plot of the film."
All he said was true: "Mr. Anderson flatly refused."
Mansour continued, asking, “Is DreamWorks the company that the Jews built?”
"Yes." Mohamed smiled helplessly: "So, I don't find it strange that they do this."
It is not difficult for Mansour to imagine that Ronan Anderson is indeed in tension with the Jews.
The two continued, and all the words Mohamed said proved that Mr. Ronan Anderson was a good friend of Abu Dhabi.
It took a while before Mohamed left the lounge.
"It's not much different from what Saleh said." Mansour said slowly: "Ronan Anderson is worth investing in."
The fat assistant continued: "I just talked to Mohammed's wife and specifically made her talk. Ronan Anderson treats them very well in the crew. According to her, Ronan Anderson should be an activist among the left-wing equal rights activists in the United States."
Mansour thought for a while and asked, “How much investment does Ronan Anderson need for a new project?”
The fat man replied: "$20 million to $30 million." He explained: "According to the description of the plan, the situation changes greatly when shooting action movies with large investments, and there may be additional budgets, but if you shoot normally, $20 million can basically be completed."
Mansour quickly made a decision: "Then it's $25 million." He raised his hand again: "Don't let the news go first, I'm going to wait."
The fat man nodded first, then asked, "Where is the French director's project? When I picked him up, he urged him again."
"Wait, too." Mansour said, thinking of his previous considerations: "In this way, you contact Ronan and Fontaine respectively to consult their opinions. I am going to hold a meeting with them to discuss these two projects."
It is best to aggregate the advantages of both parties and achieve the balance between business and art that is often mentioned in the media. New film projects can not only have a large audience but also ensure artistic content. It is best to win several heavyweight awards to attract more attention.
Ronan entered the screening hall, and the seat was next to Saleh. He sat down and chatted with Saleh for a few words. Mohammed also came to the other side of the row and sat down.
Saleh casually said: "This actor is very popular in Abu Dhabi, and Brother Mansour just met him."
Ronan nodded: "I think he can play the leading role in the new project."
When Mansour saw him, would he ask about the situation of the movie or crew? Of course he was not worried. He did too much work in advance when he was in the crew.
The premiere went smoothly, this was the version provided by Arabia, which reduced the bloody scale and increased the scenes of the Mohammed couple. At the end of the screening, there was a lot of warm applause.
Chapter completed!
