Although he won the Oscar best documentary short film, Little Golden Man and did a lot of preliminary preparations, Ronan is far from fully trusting Marian Derio's ability.

This female director is neither in his memory nor in his past, nor inconvincing works.

Even though Marian Derio's request for investment was not high, Ronan still maintained enough caution.

Of course, this kind of caution is not about giving up, but about the necessary working attitude when sitting in this position.

The kind of thing that is shocking to see the script, and does not even consider the most basic market research and investment prospects, regardless of the other party's resume or the response to the previous work, immediately slapped the bullet and decided to start the work, which should happen in a madhouse, rather than a normal person.

Anyone with a little basic understanding of this industry knows that once the investment in film and television projects is successful, the returns are indeed good, especially long-term returns, but the risks are extremely high.

Risk control is a program that Hollywood can never avoid.

"The script is excellent, and I admire your professional attitude." Ronan said directly: "I will transfer your project to Shahai Entertainment."

Marian Derio was immediately delighted. Shahai Entertainment has always been responsible for investment and production in the Relativity Entertainment Group.

How could Ronan easily let go of such a director with serious lack of qualifications and unfamiliar projects? He said: "I will notify Shahai Entertainment to sign a contract with you and allocate 300,000 US dollars. You will be responsible for shooting a trial clip for about fifteen minutes. What is the specific project? We will talk about it after you finish shooting the trial clip."

Hearing these words, Marian Derio breathed a little relieved. Although she did not directly establish a project, she believed in her ability and she had actually gotten the opportunity.

"Ask a pity, when will the signing be completed?" Marian Derio was still a little anxious: "When will the funds be in place?"

Luo Nan smiled and said, "If the talk goes well, you can sign the contract in one week. The funds will not be given directly to you, but will be supervised by a third party."

Marian Derio, a Hollywood director, said quickly: "I understand."

Ronan pressed the phone and waited for Connie to come in, handed the file bag to Connie, and said, "Find someone and take Ms. Derio to Shahai Entertainment, and you send a D-level project notification to Shahai Entertainment."

Relativity Entertainment has a self-divided film and television projects within it. The division mechanism is somewhat similar to the cinema score's cinema audience score, divided by a/b/c/d/e. The e-category is the type of projects that are directly purchased from overseas and have average commercial value in North America, such as the Hong Kong version of "Infernal Affairs" and Stephen Zhou's "Shaolin Football".

Class D is a medium- and low-income project with certain value, with relatively high risks and requires the projector to provide trial clips and other information.

Low-risk investment projects with low risks belong to C.

For example, "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "Iron Man" are all classified as B-class, and they are investing in first-tier projects that have not been tested by the market.

As for the standards of Class A, it is very simple and clear. The two sequels of "Pirates of the Caribbean", the sequels of "Spy Shadows", etc., all belong to Class A.

To put it simply, it is just a sequel to popular movies.

This type of movie has the least risk, a large number of fans, and a very high return on investment.

Connie first found an assistant and led Marian Derio with a file bag to the Shahai Entertainment Production Department, then returned to the workstation and sent a triple internal work email to the Shahai Entertainment Production Department, George Clint and Ronan.

This work is done in her early process, even if it is completed.

When Ronan saw the email, he remembered another incident and asked Connie to forward the email to Mark Randolph.

Netflix's streaming business will be launched in a few months. The TV series produced by Shahai Entertainment will not cooperate with other playback platforms for the time being. Just like all the productions of "Prison Break" and "Survival in the Wild", Netflix is ​​the most important playback platform.

The same is true of this TV series about the Chernobyl incident.

There are actually many controversies in Marian Derio's script. This may not be subjectively added, but rather comes from factors such as long-term cognition and the formation of personal worldview.

Are people who grew up in the Cold War environment and received the so-called "freedom and democracy" education in the United States unexpectedly smearing the Russians?

Ronan was not surprised at all, nor did he think about correcting it. Most of the thoughts and opinions he faced after the filming of this series were probably not much different from Marian Dereo.

This is not a documentary or a video material that reflects social reality, but a TV series.

The authenticity of the events it responds to is important, and the commercial prospects are even more important. Do you still need to make a choice?

Hollywood has chosen the latter for decades, and Ronan is no exception.

Shahai Entertainment will definitely prepare more episodes and movies for Netflix. Jerefer Abrams, who is preparing for "Hurricane Rescue 2", talked to Ronan some time ago about a TV series project, which seemed a bit interesting.

Ronan simply went downstairs and came to the crew's temporary office floor. In the preparation office for "Hurricane Rescue 2", he met Jerever Abrams.

"How is it?" Ronan asked, "Jerryfer, is the preparation going smoothly?"

Seeing Ronan and hearing this question, Jereph Abrams couldn't help but complain: "Ronan, you took my male lead to film "Batman" and took my female lead away to film the youth idol movie. Will I go smoothly? If it weren't for this, "Hurricane Rescue 2" would have already started filming."

Ronan could only comfort him: "They will return to the crew soon. I promise that the film will be able to start filming in two months and will be released on time next year."

The heroine really blamed him. After "Hurricane Rescue" was released, Amanda Seyfried first went to film "Mean Girl" and now is filming "Mama Mia", which are all film projects he initiated personally.

Thinking of Amanda Seyfried, Ronan suddenly realized that it seemed that Amanda called several times, and his phone was on Connie's side, which caused him not to receive it, and he was probably going to be complained again.

As for Liam Neeson's schedule, it has little to do with Ronan. "Batman: The Moment of War" was filmed last year and will be released this month. Liam Neeson has also recently made two films, namely "Kinsey Professor of Sexuality" and the epic masterpiece "Dynasty of the Heavens" by the 20th Century Fox.

The schedule is so tight, several aspects must be coordinated.

"Hurricane Rescue 2" can only be postponed for the time being, but fortunately, the next time is enough and it will definitely be released on time in 2005.

Ronan also told the Shahai Entertainment Production Department to tailor the "rescue" type of film for Liam Neeson based on the "Hurricane Rescue" model. He did not directly give the script and story outline, but asked the screenwriters to create rescue stories with transportation such as planes, trains and ships as the background.

In short, Uncle Neeson must save the heaven, earth and air.

Ronan talked to Jerever Abrams about the tense preparations for "Hurricane Rescue 2" and asked, "Last time I heard you mention, do you have an idea about a TV series?"

Jerever Abrams nodded and said, "It was there before filming "Hurting Rescue", but during filming "Hurting Rescue", this idea was clearer. Before the sequel was prepared, I specially sorted out my ideas. The story background and main plot have been written, and even the characters have been designed."

He looked at Ronan: "Are you interested?"

"I heard you mention it last time, but I didn't have time to listen carefully." Ronan said directly: "Can you talk about it carefully?"

Jerever Abrams's life path has changed dramatically because of Ronan's relationship. He became a film director earlier and enjoyed the dividends of success and fame, but some ideas can only be delayed.

In terms of cooperation, he and Relativity Entertainment are of a very pleasant type of cooperation.

As long as the director and the film company work together successfully, it will always develop inertia, just like the model development of Hollywood films, it will continue to develop along the successful model.

Therefore, Jerever Abrams has no reluctance to continue to cooperate with Relativity Entertainment, and Ronan's good reputation has basically no worries.

"You should have watched "The Rest of the Desert Island" starring Tom Hanks?" Jerever Abrams asked.

Luo Nan nodded slightly: "I have watched it more than once, and it is a very impressive movie."

Jerever Abrams said bluntly: "My thoughts about TV series were originally from "The Rest of the Desert Island", and later inspired by the reality show "Survivor". Later, I met Bell Griers, who returned from filming "Survivor" overseas at Shahai Entertainment. I talked with him for a long time and really confirmed that my idea was feasible."

He smiled: "In fact, if you didn't meet Bell Griers, this idea may still be in my mind."

Ronan did not expect that the cooperation between Shahai Entertainment and Bell Griers actually inspired Jerever Abrams' new project.

Jerever Abrams said again: "I have basically confirmed the background of the story, I will give it to you afterwards."

Ronan said again: "Let's talk about it first."

"Okay." Jerever Abrams organized a little language and said as simple as possible: "The main storyline is generally like this, mainly about a passenger plane crashing on an isolated island in the Pacific Ocean, and dozens of passengers survived. Faced with such a deserted and crowded island, how can they survive?"
