Chapter 62: Shark grabbing meat


   "Mr. Minister, my films are not comparable to cheap horror films and popcorn films."
   For Qiantu's sake, Fang Dan gritted his teeth secretly and said: "If such an Arab art film can win awards at the three major film festivals, the impact will be huge and far-reaching, enough to be famous in history!"
  Because of investing in a movie, Mansour knows a little bit about the film industry and naturally knows the long history and huge influence of the three major European film festivals.
   An Arab film can be awarded, which is quite attractive to him.
   But he didn't immediately express his opinion. He always felt that there was something wrong with the script provided by Fang Dan, because it was a layman, but he couldn't think it through.
Seeing that Mansour hadn’t said anything, Fang Dan said:
Mr. Minister, you are already involved in the film industry. Everyone knows that. The first film invested in "Human Removal Project" will also be released in the UAE, but Hollywood’s The crowd is untrustworthy!"
  Mansour has read the "Ace Agent" script and investment statement faxed by Saleh. Ronan Anderson has done impeccable work. Such a person is not credible?
   After getting a huge investment and returning to Paris, I still continue to be the pauper of the director. Fontaine believes that the turning point of fate is in Abu Dhabi.
"What is the core of Hollywood movies? Business! Profit!" He continued: "Those people in Hollywood can betray even film art for commercial profits, let alone other? The essence of film art should be the transmission of culture, which is one A manifestation of belief and the essence of society, not just entertainment!"
  Mansour nodded slowly. He didn't agree with the previous words about Ronan Anderson, but the words of film art still moved him somewhat.
   This does make sense.
   Maybe you can invest in this Mr. Fang Dan’s film. Continue to invest in Hollywood commercial films, and at the same time try tall art films.
  If the latter can get the award, this investment will make money.
   There is no shortage of money in the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, but every penny must be used where it should be used.
   Both projects seem to be good.
  Mansour has a higher education and is definitely an elite class. His head quickly went through two scripts. Ronan Anderson's script was too entertaining and lacking in inner thinking, and Fontaine's script was too obscure...
   "Mr. Fontaine." Mansour had an idea: "I want to let someone evaluate your script. You will wait two days in Abu Dhabi, and I will give you an answer as soon as possible."
   Hearing this, Fang Dan breathed a sigh of relief.
Mansour does not have talents who can study film. The entire UAE film industry is at a stage where it can only bring in filming and production, and cannot find professional evaluation talents. His idea is very simple, let Ronan Anderson evaluate Fontaine Script.
   Hmm... Let Fontaine evaluate Ronan Anderson's script.
   Maybe combining the advantages of the two can make the movie even better?
   Yes, the combination of business and art.
  Mansour took a copy and handed it to Fontaine: "This is a Hollywood script I just received. Take a look and help me with your opinion."
  Fontaine immediately took it. Under the name of "Ace Agent" on the cover of the script is the author of the script, and the name written on it is Ronan Anderson!
  A competitor’s script...
   He opened it and looked at it. It was only at the beginning, and he almost couldn't stand it. It was helicopter bombing, explosions and killings, all of which are very vulgar in Hollywood.
   Mansour puts away Fontaine's script, intending to see Ronan Anderson and let him see it.
   The limousine came to a hotel and stopped. Fontaine was about to get off. Mansour invited him: "You take a rest first. I will send someone to pick you up in the afternoon to attend the evening premiere."
   Fontaine understands that this is referring to the "Human Elimination Project", and he just wants to see who Ronan Anderson is. If you want to defeat your competitors, you must first understand your competitors.
   It has been several days since I started talking with Mansour in Saudi Arabia. Mansour has never let go of investment. Perhaps it has something to do with these people from Hollywood.
  …………
   At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, at the Emirates Grand Theatre in Abu Dhabi, the UAE premiere of "Human Removal Project" kicked off.
   Many wealthy people, celebrities and members of the royal family from the Emirate of Abu Dhabi participated in this premiere. Even Dubai also sent representatives.
   Ronan specially appeared in front of many media cameras, walked through the long red carpet, and after coming to the interview area, in front of countless cameras, he warmly embraced the actor Muhammad.
   A reporter from the UAE National Television came to interview immediately.
   "Mr. Anderson, Arabs rarely play important roles in Hollywood movies." The reporter asked, "How is your cooperation with Muhammad this time?"
   In recent days, the Mohammeds have been participating in various media activities in Abu Dhabi. The scenery is endless and it can be described as returning home in splendor.
Ronan replied: "In life, Muhammad is an intellectual. He is very smart and has a high IQ. On the set, he is a great actor. When filming, his greatness lies in his ability to understand reality. All his own life and shadows are erased in life. In this movie, he performed very well, because in the scene, he erased all his personalities and put all of them into the role. He is a very easy collaboration People who are capable of performing various roles."
   This is the answer that all three parties would like to hear.
   Ronan needs to show the position of his old Arab friends, and Abu Dhabi officials hope to highlight Arab actors.
   Muhammad is a little grateful. It takes too long to be ignored and discriminated against, and respect will become especially important.
   The reporter asked again: "What was your original intention for making this movie?"
Ronan started talking nonsense: "Using film techniques to show the social reality of the United States. This is a violent anti-violence film. Violence is everywhere in American society. American society is by no means as good as it looks outside. Some are not good. I hope this movie will attract the attention of the whole society. Violence, discrimination and government inaction will destroy this society."
   Those who inappropriately criticize the Washington authorities are definitely not qualified Hollywood filmmakers.
   The reporter continued to ask: "When we interviewed Mr. Muhammad, he mentioned the discrimination against a few actors in Hollywood. What do you think?"
   "This is real." Ronan looked sad, "This is an unfairness that deeply hurts people who really love movies. I very much hope to change this situation and I am willing to work hard for it."
  He is now a civil rights fighter of freedom and equality: "No matter what you believe in, no matter where you come from, no matter what your skin color, no matter what political ideas you uphold, you are all equal!"
   Mohammed nodded again and again. If there were more good people like Ronan in Hollywood, it would be great.
   "Thank you, Mr. Anderson." The reporter said, "You are our true friend."
   Ronan said at the right time: "As a friend, you can't just talk, I've been doing it, so I have this movie."
   The reporter nodded his head: "Yes! You are too right!"
   At the end of the interview, Ronan and Mohammed came to the photo zone, took photos with some officials of the Investment Bureau, and then entered the VIP room of the theater and met Saleh.
   "Come here." Saleh led Ronan into the lounge next to him: "Brother Mansour wants to see you. UU reading www.uukānshu.com"
   Ronan entered the lounge, saw Mansour immediately, smiled and said hello: "Hello, Mr. Minister."
   "Hello, Mr. Anderson." Mansour shook his hand.
The two chatted a few words about the "Human Removal Project" and Mansour took the initiative to say: "I have read your plan and the script of "Ace Agent". It's very good. The Investment Bureau is reviewing and will give you an answer soon. ."
   "Thank you for your support from the Investment Bureau and Mr. Minister." Ronan is very patient.
   "Oh, that's right." Mansour took a bound book and handed it over: "This is a new script I received. I don't have a professional candidate here. Can you help me see it and give me some comments?"
   Ronan took the script and glanced at it. The title of the script was written in French, English and Arabic. It was called "Life in the UAE". The writer was a person named Fontaine, and the nationality marked after the name was French.
   "I met a French director in Saudi Arabia, and he had a lot of ideas. He is going to make an art film that reflects the UAE society, and the goal is the three major European film festivals..."
  Mansour said briefly.
   Ronan calmly opened the script and quickly browsed, but his thoughts were not on the script, but the so-called French director.
   Has a shark smelling blood come to grab the meat so soon?
   "Any comments?" Ronan confirmed.
   Mansour doesn’t seem to be talking, but rather serious: "Mr. Anderson, I believe your professionalism, please take a closer look at this script."
   Ronan could not refuse, and said: "Okay, I need some time."
   Mansour smiled and replied: "Don't worry."
   At the end of the conversation, Ronan took the lead to leave the lounge and enter the VIP room, where he had just chatted with a few people introduced by Saleh.
