Chapter 1127: joint


Before you know it, 2008 has come to an end, and the sun in 2009 has fallen on the world. America is still two worlds, one side is full of wailing, and the other is a luxurious life.
However, compared with previous years, the number of people who can advance into the latter has decreased drastically, and the latter have fallen into the ranks of the former.
Many people cannot adapt to this gap and choose to use the "Leap of Faith".
However, these have little to do with Relativity Entertainment. During the year of 2008, Relativity Entertainment developed rapidly. Whether it was movies and dramas, or related peripheral industry chains, they all created new highs since the establishment of the group company.
Among them, "Avatar" with a global box office of up to 2.8 billion US dollars appeared.
Although "Avatar" is still shown in the international market, it has already set a record that other films are difficult to break in a short period of time.
In addition, Relativity Entertainment also has two live-action films, "Alice in Wonderland" and "Beauty and the Beast", with a global box office of more than 1 billion US dollars.
The latter is still showing in the North American and international film markets, and $1 billion is far from the end of the box office.
As for the box office over 500 million US dollars, that is too much.
The proportion of movie box office in the revenue of Relativity Entertainment has been declining and has fallen below 15%.
In terms of drama series, except for "Grey the Intern" and "Peppa Pig", which continue to cooperate with ABC TV, all other dramas were handed over to the Netflix streaming platform for exclusive broadcast.
Correspondingly, most of the money burned by Netflix streaming media fell into the pocket of Shahai Entertainment.
While Shahai Entertainment continues to film and produce old dramas, it is also constantly developing new ones.
"Breaking Bad" is a big hit. At present, like "House of Cards" and "Game of Thrones", it belongs to the first-line series. Shahai Entertainment intends to use this series as a basis to focus on the most popular characters. Develop derivative series.
For example, the story of the coquettish lawyer before he met Lao Bai.
There are also some brand new projects.
Shahai Entertainment bought the adaptation rights of a vampire "Southern Vampire" and plans to adapt it into a large-scale vampire series, temporarily titled "True Love as Blood".
In the competition with Twentieth Century Fox, he grabbed the investment opportunity of "Modern Family" starring Sophia Vergara and others, and obtained the copyright of this series of episodes.
The two drama producers of Shahai Entertainment focused on the documentary and planned to shoot a documentary about ten episodes that reflects the real life and work conditions of female artists in San Fernando Valley.
This is not a heavy-tasting drama series. The content may be of a large scale, but the intention is very basic, not at all, it is through a more neutral and objective standpoint, using the lens to describe the practitioners of an industry.
In addition, Shahai Entertainment has also attracted many foreign projects by virtue of its good reputation of "valuing newcomers" over the years, and has finalized several cooperations.
For example, the serious drama of Zhenger Bajing, Shahai Entertainment and the director of "Long Island Lost", Michael Costa, plan to shoot a series of anti-terrorism theme, the project is called "Homeland Security".
Shahai Entertainment has also further strengthened the development of the female market. Robert King, the screenwriter and producer of "Vertical Limits", delivered to the company a project, a series called "The Good Wife", which focuses on the so-called heroine, won Ronan's green light.
Preparations for this series have already begun, and it will be available on the Netflix streaming platform in the fall.
Shahai Entertainment also rejected several projects, such as DreamWorks’ invitation to cooperate.
In view of the great success of "Brothers" that year, Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks plan to work together again to shoot war-themed miniseries with World War II as the background story, but this time the battlefield has moved from Europe. Above the Pacific islands.
The production cost of "Brothers" is as high as 125 million U.S. dollars. The budget of this drama, temporarily named "Blood Wars Pacific", is even more alarming. The production cost will be as high as 230 million U.S. dollars.
Hollywood is facing a money shortage caused by the economic crisis. DreamWorks and Tom Hanks’ companies cannot afford such a high investment. Spielberg immediately found Shahai Entertainment and Netflix Streaming, hoping that the two companies would be generous. Unwind and pay for most of the investment in "Blood Wars Pacific".
It is not impossible to pay the bill, but DreamWorks refused to give up the copyright. Of course Ronan would not be taken advantage of this, and he directly declined the invitation of Spielberg and Tom Hanks to cooperate.
Want to pay for Shahai Entertainment and Netflix streaming media, but want to keep the copyright, how can there be such a good thing?
DreamWorks is inspired by Ronan and Relativity Entertainment, and is also stepping up activities overseas, striving to make money overseas.
Spielberg and Tom Hanks's name are still very attractive for investment.
In a series of good news, Relativity Entertainment is still operating as planned.
Ronan always pays attention to the latest news about Hollywood and 20th Century Fox.
In mid-January, there was a gossip newspaper in the UK that was not part of News Corporation. It smelled something. In a recent special issue on the weekend, it was claimed that somebody in the British royal family might sell news about William’s injury some time ago. , Or the royal family is being watched.
Although there is no clear evidence for these news, Ronan also knows that even if it is Relativity Entertainment, it quietly hides behind News Corporation, and after secretly helping them suppress it for a period of time, certain events are almost unstoppable.
Certain related events will inevitably erupt in the next few months, and many people will become victims.
In this case, there is no need to press down.
Ronan left Los Angeles with fanfare and rushed to London, England, to visit Jessica Felton, who was in charge of the crew of "Fast and Furious 5" at Pinewood Studios.
Pinewood Studios is the largest film studio in the UK, with 41 various studios, including 10 digital TV studios, outdoor shooting parks and woodlands, and the world's only underwater photography facility.
The main plot of "Fast and Furious 5" takes place in London, England, so Pinewood Studios was chosen as the location of the crew.
The crew has not finished today’s work. Jessica Felton left the studio, returned to the hotel where he was staying, changed into a formal dress, and met Ronan downstairs, who had just returned from a visit on Downing Street, and rushed together To Kensington Palace in Chelsea.
Before coming to London, Ronan made a visit. William and his girlfriend Kate specially hosted a banquet in the area where they lived in Kensington Palace to host Ronan and Jessica Felton.
A Bentley car drove away from the front of the hotel. The driver was David, and Vinci continued to sit in the passenger seat.
"There are paparazzi," Finch said.
Ronan waved his hand: "Don't worry about them, William and I have been together for many years. It is normal to visit him."
Jessica Felton couldn't help but said: "They are really crazy!"
Ronan said: "They are not crazy, where can we have a good chance."
Jessica Felton was speechless for a while and had to ask: "Are you ready to start?"
Ronan nodded slightly: "It's about to burst out. This is the best opportunity."
Not only because of these things, but also for years of secret planning and waiting.
First, the economic crisis broke out normally and brought a series of shocks. Then, the 20th Century Fox has received five Dragon Balls that he sent out, plus the "Australia", which can be said to be six.
Continuous large-scale production failures, even the 20th Century Fox could not bear its weight, the stock price fell again and again, and the market value shrank again and again.
Next month, "Terminator 4" will be released. Twentieth Century Fox is likely to gather seven dragon and naturally want to summon the dragon.
When they arrived in Kensington Palace's area belonging to William, William and Kate waited at the door, and waited until Ronan and Jessica Felton got off the car, took a step forward, and shook hands with them and exchanged greetings.
Afterwards, Ronan and William walked in front side by side, and Kate followed Jessica Felton behind and entered Kensington Palace together.
Both parties went directly to the living room on the second floor, where there are many family photos, books, magazines, and many household items such as candles and green plants, maintaining a comfortable family atmosphere.
This is a private dinner after all.
When Ronan talked with William on the phone before, there was a simple communication. The two did not bother Kate and Jessica Felton, who were talking and laughing, and went into the study together.
"Don't worry." William believed Ronan could understand: "I have just checked here and there will be no problems."
Ronan nodded: "I saw the news in the newspaper two days ago, and I couldn't believe that they dared to stretch their hands so long."
William's face is not very good: "They have violated the rules of the game."
Although it hasn't exploded in the newspapers, and he hasn't got any evidence here, he has already guessed.
Ronan said in a deep voice, "Some people are crazy."
William did not take Ronan's words, but asked: "You are very concerned about this?"
"To be honest, I encountered a situation similar to yours some time ago." Ronan calmly seemed to suppress his anger: "Some of my personal calls with Jesse, as well as several calls with company executives, were all caught Eavesdropped."
William was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, he wasn't surprised: "They are too courageous..."
"I was also very surprised at the time~EbookFREE.me~ Ronan said roughly: "So, someone checked it out, and the result... was shocking. My people followed the clues from Los Angeles to New York, from New York to Washington, and then to London. Although what they found was amazing, I did not expect that they would dare to treat the royal family..."
Listening to Ronan's words, William's face became more serious. People of his background naturally knew that a super-rich with a net worth of hundreds of billions really wanted to investigate and should find out a lot of things.
"You have the evidence?" William asked.
Ronan nodded slightly: "There is a part."
William said directly: "Ronan, let's cooperate."
The dinner started late because Ronan and William had been in the study for too long.
Ronan stayed in London for nearly a week, during which he visited a number of political and business people, and then returned to North America in late January to prepare to participate in an event of the George Lucas Film Foundation.
