Chapter 15: Very annoying

　　 "Bought so many books?"
　　 In the office, seeing Ronan coming in with a large stack of books, Mary hurriedly stepped forward to help: "Become this haggard again?"
　　 Ronan's hair is messy, and he wore two large dark circles under his eyes.
"There is too much work to be done recently." He doesn't care much. It is normal to work hard in the entrepreneurial stage. He enters the office, puts the book on the table, and takes over Mary's hand, and says: "Revised last night Script, forget the time."
　　 The company has just gotten back on track these days, and there is too much work to do. The script modification can only be done at night.
　　Mary made him a cup of coffee and flipped through the books: "Are you studying?"
　　 These are all professional books in the industry, from law to film production to script creation, and a few of them are collections of successful cases.
　　 Ronan nodded: "After the last failure, I realized that my ability is much worse."
　　 Foresight is the advantage, and his own ability is the foundation. The former affects his upper limit in the future, while the latter can directly set the lower limit.
　　 I want to run a film company and be a successful producer. Memories are far from enough.
　　 Ronan has decided to pick up the textbooks from many years in his previous life and learn to strengthen his professional knowledge.
　　Although he worked as a small producer on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, it is completely different from Hollywood.
　　 In the past week, he only slept for about six hours a day, read books and revised scripts at night, and dealt with the company's affairs during the day, occasionally being a little free, and would continue to enrich himself.
　　Like entertainment laws and industry regulations, these are not well-known. As a producer and production company owner, you must always have a clear understanding.
　　For example, the screenwriters’ union, if you don’t know about it, you will never know that this is the industry union with the highest barriers to entry in Hollywood.
　　If you want to join the screenwriters union, you need to appear in the cast and crew list of at least 24 crews within three years of the application, including the experience of signing a contract with the company and undertaking creative work, or the experience of selling written works.
　　 In other words, even if he is a screenwriter of a publicly screened film, he is not eligible to join the screenwriters union.
　　 In addition to normal study and work, Ronan also picked up the network of relationships that Little Anderson dismissed, and has gone to visit old Anderson’s friends and business partners in the afternoon for three consecutive days.
　　 Yesterday, he went to visit Robert Shay when he went to knot the Red Line Films' rake on the TV and video copyright of "Jedi".
　　 It doesn’t hurt to have more contacts.
　　 Little Anderson didn't know it.
　　 There is no doubt that Hollywood is a very talented circle, but as a newcomer, it is a bit whimsical to want to get air every second with talent and talent.
　　 Ronan knows very well that countless geniuses have died on the road to entrepreneurship.
"Aren't you looking for a suitable party?" Mary put an invitation letter on her desk: "This is a high-end banquet organized by DreamWorks. It is said that many celebrities in the entertainment and fashion circles will attend. Get it, this ticket is as high as $3,000."
　　 Ronan picked up the invitation letter and looked at it. There was a signature of David Geffen on it, and immediately said: "This money goes to the "Human Removal Project" account."
　　 Three thousand dollars of tickets are really expensive, and the tickets for this year’s Oscar night party are only five thousand dollars.
　　 There are certain qualifications to buy such tickets, not everyone can buy them.
　　 Anyway, there are Arabs paying the bill, Ronan doesn't feel distressed.
This morning, Ronan was not idle. He interviewed six applicants for the company, reviewed a preliminary financial expenditure of the "Human Removal Plan" formulated by Mary, and watched the "California Entertainment Act." ".
　　In the afternoon, he temporarily put aside his work and talked with the three directors who came to apply for the job.
　　 These three directors are not members of the directors’ union. Direct contact with the production company to find a job is not in line with industry regulations, but the independent film circle has a lot of chaos, and this issue is not a problem at all.
　　 It is a pity that these three have no qualifications and no relevant work experience.
　　 Strictly speaking, I have only filmed experimental videos at school, and I have never even contacted MV shooting.
　　Since the project "Human Removal Project" was operated, Ronan certainly wanted to succeed, so he directly rejected the three.
　　 Ronan didn't have much experience in the first place, and the filming experience in his previous life can be used only limited. If you find a director with no experience, 90% of the film will hit the street.
　　 This is definitely not a script for a popular movie in the past life, and then a director can make it.
　　 Ronan needs to learn to enrich himself and accumulate experience. Finding a better director will undoubtedly increase the chances of project success.
　　 He thinks the most ideal candidate is David Fincher, but he can only think about it, after all, the real budget of the project does not even have US$2 million.
　　 This is actually a paradox. Directors with a little bit of successful qualifications are not cheap to ask; cheap directors have hardly proven themselves.
　　 The job advertisements issued by Shahai Entertainment have worked to some extent. In addition to self-recommended candidates, several small brokerage companies have sent over their directors, actors and other positions.
　　 Ronan paid special attention to the director and the actors. The actors have a few familiar names, but the director does not have any.
　　 In Hollywood, good directors are a scarce resource than good actors.
　　 In the next few days, Ronan met with five more directors, and the situation was similar to the previous three.
　　 It is not that Ronan has been contacted by the agents of second and third line directors, but when he saw their offer, Ronan stopped considering it.
　　 Like the directors and actors quotations provided by several medium and large agencies, they are higher than the real budget of the entire project.
　　 Inside the circle, there are certain situations that can be faintly felt without telling them. After Ronan continuously rejected multiple intentional offers, this project quickly disappeared from the vision of medium and large brokerage companies.
　　 What Shahai Entertainment is really making progress is the recruitment of ordinary employees. After a few days of interview, Ronan has finalized several new employees.
　　 The weekend came soon. Ronan asked the stylist recommended by Mary to make a new haircut, and came to the Hilton Beverly Hills Hotel in a refreshing manner.
　　 This banquet was called in the name of DreamWorks. Even outside the hotel, you can see some famous people.
　　 As soon as Ronan entered the hotel lobby, he met Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio.
　　Because of the distance, I vaguely heard that Kate Winslet let Leonardo go first, she was waiting for someone.
　　 Then, Leonardo left directly.
　　The purpose of Ronan's participation in the banquet is to expand the social circle. He doesn't ask for anything else. First, he is familiar with some people. Personal connections are also very important in Hollywood.
　　 "Good evening, Miss Winslet." He came directly to the shredded meat and greeted politely, "We meet again."
　　 Kate Winslet shook hands with Ronan and responded politely: "Hello, it's nice to see you again."
　　 Hearing this, Ronan immediately understood that Kate Winslet had forgotten who he was.
　　 Ronan did not show any unhappiness, and said, "This is Ronan Anderson. We met at the Twentieth Century Fox Appreciation Cocktail Party."
　　 "Yes, I remember." Kate Winslet remembered who this handsome handsome guy was, and said with an affectionate smile: "Call me Kate. Can I call you Ronan?"
　　 Unlike the role she plays, the British actress appears very educated, at least on the surface. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
　　 "Of course." Ronan said with a smile: "Kate, I am your loyal fan."
　　 Kate Winslet's gaze crossed Ronan and looked behind. Ronan was very conscious and immediately said, "I'm going to the banquet hall, and I will talk again when I have time."
　　 "Okay." Kate Winslet responded with the same smile.
　　 This person gave her a good impression. Not only was she outstanding, she was also very witty.
　　 Ronan walked past Kate Winslet and glanced back. A strong man with a beard had already walked up to Kate Winslet, and Kate Winslet took the initiative to hold his hand.
　　 This is not a courteous arm, but fingers interlocking!
　　 The banquet is considered a public occasion. This gesture undoubtedly shows that the strong man is at least Kate Winslet's boyfriend.
　　 "I said, keep your distance from Leonardo!" The voice from the man was quite annoyed, "Do you think there are not enough scandals between you?"
　　 Kate Winslet seemed a little helpless: "Leo comes over to say hello, I always have to say a few words to him?"
　　 Ronan quietly slowed down, this gossip aroused his interest to some extent, and it is not difficult to judge from these two sentences that the pork is actually in a weak position.
　　 The man became even more annoyed: "I don't like that greasy noodle boy! Very annoying!"
　　 Kate Winslet’s voice is a little soft: "Jim, we are all engaged."
　　 "If he harass you again, I will make him look good!" The man's words didn't seem to be joking: "I will let him know how powerful English men are!"
　　 Kate Winslet persuaded a few more tactfully, and the man snorted heavily and stopped talking.
　　 Ronan glanced again, shook his head and entered the corridor leading to the banquet hall.
