Chapter 283: Visitor

Out of the World City Shopping Center, Ronan waited for David to drive over and asked the girl next to him: "Amanda, shall I take you back?"
Amanda Seyfried looked at the huge electronic timer above the main entrance of the shopping center and said, "Okay."
At this time, the black Bentley Yazhi slowly drove over. Ronan pulled the car door to let Amanda Seyfried get in the car, then walked around to the other side and got into the car, asking, "Where do you live now?"
Amanda Seyfried said, "Burbank, the house my mother rented over there."
As the car started, Amanda looked at the decorations in the car curiously and asked, "Ronan, is this car expensive?"
"Yeah." Ronan just replied casually without saying much.
Amanda Seyfried was not restrained, looked at here and touched there curiously, after all, she was just a girl who was not even sixteen years old.
When curiosity was almost gone, Ronan asked, "Do you have goals in high school?"
"Yes." Amanda Seyfried's energy turned back to Ronan, leaning on the back of a comfortable chair, and said: "I will be able to grab the cheerleader in the first semester."
Ronan was speechless for a moment, this goal was too pursued.
But look at Amanda Seyfried, blonde, beautiful and sexy, and she was born a cheerleader.
Amanda smiled and said, "I'm kidding you, Ronan." She said proudly, "I don't play with those little kids."
It feels that those people are too low-level, they will only show off their cleverness among their peers.
The car entered Burbank and turned into the block where Mrs. Seyfried rented the house. Ronan added, "If you have trouble at school, you can call me."
"Yeah." Amanda responded.
When the car stopped, she picked up the file bag containing the script and got out of the car, turned back and waved here: "Goodbye, Ronan."
"Goodbye." Ronan waved to her.
Back home, Amanda saw her mother wanting to cross-examine, so she squeezed the file bag into her first.
Mrs. Seyfried asked in surprise, "What is this?"
Amanda took a little bit of girlish pride and said, "The script Ronan gave me. He said that the heroine in it is very suitable for me. You can take a look first."
Mrs. Seyfried immediately threw other things behind her head and flipped through the script. The more she looked at it, the more she felt that this story was too good, and it seemed very suitable for Amanda at this stage.
When Ronan returned to the future world of Beverly Hills, the sky was already dark.
"Sir." Nikia, the butler, sent an invitation letter: "This is specially sent by the assistant of Mr. Jeff Katzenberg."
Ronan took a look and said, "I see."
This is an invitation to the premiere of "The Princess Diaries". Disney Pictures will hold the premiere of this romantic fairy tale movie next week. Before that, Jeff Katzenberg agreed to help him get an invitation for the premiere. .
After reading the invitation letter, Ronan thought for a while and said, "Nikia, I plan to hold a small banquet in half a month. There are not many people, about seven or eight. You can plan for the type of gathering of friends."
Nikia immediately responded: "Okay. I will prepare."
Ronan added: "Remember to refill the wine consumed in the cellar at any time."
"Yes." Nikia responded.
Ronan received the invitation letter without saying more, and went to the study on the second floor to deal with the backlog of work emails over the past two days.
Many people from Shahai Entertainment and Embassy Pictures sent emails recommending the director of "Hurricane Rescue". Among the long list, Ronan did not find a suitable candidate.
George Clint met Gracie Jacobs, Johnny Depp's agent, and Johnny Depp didn't have any reply about Captain Jack Sparrow.
Gore Wibinski is very interested in the director position of the first-line big productions, but he is limited to the director contract of "Midnight Bell" with DreamWorks, and he will not really talk about this directorship until February and March next year.
In the email sent by Lawyer Dinah, Ronan's personal foundation and film investment fund have passed the legal review. There are no legal obstacles, and the rest is waiting.
Scott needs Ronan to sign some related fund agreements in person, and wants to invite Ronan to his home as a guest.
Shahai Entertainment has made several contacts with Liam Neeson, and hopes to turn the contacts into formal contract negotiations.
Alan Albert from the Overseas Distribution Department of the Embassy Pictures sent an email to routinely report the box office figures of several overseas release films: "The Bourne" overseas box office of 92.19 million US dollars, "Shrek" overseas box office of 17895 million Ten thousand dollars, "Fatal Bend" has a limited overseas release time, and the current overseas box office has just exceeded 10 million dollars.
Random House regularly reports the sales of "Twilight", which has sold a total of 180,000 copies.
Judith from the bank sent an email asking if Relativity Entertainment needed a new loan...
Ronan responded one by one. After processing the email, he carefully read the list of directors recommended by the two companies, and then took the script of "Hurricane Rescue" to read it seriously.
The value of this series is immense, and it can also be summarized in a small and broad type.
As far as the production budget is concerned, US$20 million is enough, or even not necessary. After all, Liam Nissen’s pay is not high, and most of the funds are actually spent on filming and production.
As for Amanda Seyfried, she was paid tens of thousands of dollars.
But the director's words...
Ronan vaguely remembered that the screenwriter and producer of "Hurricane Rescue" was Luc Besson, and the director was a Frenchman. The specific name has long been forgotten.
And it's only 2001, and it is estimated that the director is still a novice.
Fortunately, time is relatively sufficient, and companies such as CAA and William Morris are also cooperating, so I can slowly find a suitable director.
The brokerage company will also recommend it.
Looking at the script of "Hurricane Rescue", Ronan suddenly thought of a related comment he had read in his previous life, saying that it was a matter of the couple's perception of the world.
In real life, quite a few women do not understand the sensitivity, stubbornness, and vigilance of their husbands. In front of outsiders, their evaluation of their husbands is: "Hey...that old wood, I don’t understand anything, just like a crazy person every day, just ignore him. ."
Why is this so? Because many women don't have much chance to see the dark side of the world, when a woman sees it, she may already be in it.
When these women regretted not listening to their husbands, it was too late to cry.
Men have different perceptions of the world, and sometimes only women do not understand it, because there is no suitable situation to tell women.
Frankly speaking, Ronan knew something about his father's mentality. Although he was lonely and widowed in his previous life, he had also seen colleagues burst into anger and helplessness due to problems such as vaccines.
It is estimated that many parents must have the idea of ​​killing at that time.
The phone rang at this time, and the housekeeper Nikia called and said that someone had come to visit.
When Luo Nan went down to the living room on the first floor, he saw that the person was a little strange, it was James Huang.
"Hi, James." Ronan hurried over to shake hands with him: "It's been a long time."
Although the two sides did not continue to cooperate after the "Human Removal Project 2", James Huang also switched to the embrace of Sony Entertainment, but there is no contradiction between each other, the previous cooperation can be considered pleasant.
James-Huang said with a smile: "It just happened to be walking from here, so I took the liberty to come and visit temporarily."
Ronan waved his hand: "We are old friends, we don't need to be so polite." He motioned to the sofa: "James, sit down."
When James Wong sat down, Ronan asked him to bring black tea and said, "It's been a long time since I saw you. Is the work going well?"
"Everything is fine." James Huang said with a smile: "The "Universal Hunting Order" that I collaborated with Sony Entertainment's Revolutionary Studio has completed all the shooting and production."
Ronan said sincerely, "Congratulations."
This is the mainstream commercial production of James Huang Dream, and if successful, he can get rid of his identity as a horror film director.
The production cost is US$50 million, and the investment is quite large, and Shahai Entertainment’s production budget for "The Bourne" is no more than that.
"Thank you." James Huang said.
Ronan added: "I hope we still have the opportunity to cooperate."
In several collaborations, James Wong left him a very good impression. He is a director who knows how to save money, has precise control over movie scripts, and is good at creating intense drama conflicts with small scenes.
But the premise of these is the horror thriller directed by James Huang.
The two chatted for a while, and James Wong said: ""Universal Pursuit" was released in early November. I am here this time and I will also tell you by the way that I must go to the premiere when I have time."
Ronan immediately replied: "As long as time permits, I will definitely be there."
"I won't bother." James Wong said goodbye in due course: "Ronan, we often contact."
Ronan sent James Huang to the door and said, "Always contact ~EbookFREE.me~ watching James Huang drive away and Ronan returns to the living room. If the "Universal Manhunt" does not achieve the expected results, maybe Shahai Entertainment really has another chance to cooperate with James Huang.
Having said that, the sequel to "Reaper Is Coming" really needs a relatively stable director.
But Ronan also knows that many directors are stubborn and even very stubborn people. They will not give up and change easily, and it is difficult to listen to the persuasion of others.
Moreover, the relationship between him and James Huang is not good when talking too much, which may cause many unnecessary misunderstandings.
Ronan can only do his best to keep James Huang in the field of horror and thriller, and other things are not easy to interfere. I hope he will not be interested in the strange film of "Dragon Ball".
What is the mentality of the investors and filmmakers of that "Dragon Ball" live-action movie? James Huang gave up on himself or something else?
To be honest, that film is worse than the game adaptation film directed by Uvi Bauer.
