Chapter 323: Arrive in Seoul

Ginza is the most prosperous business district in Tokyo. It is known as the heart of Tokyo. It is as famous as the Champs Elysées in Paris and the Fifth Avenue in New York. It is one of the three most prosperous centers in the world.
Here, as long as you have money, you can almost buy the top luxury goods.
Ronan is very particular about equivalent exchanges. In just one morning, he accompanied Fukada Kyoko around the three stores of Chanel, Hermes and Cartier, and his handbags filled with luxury goods filled the trunk of a Mercedes-Benz sedan. .
Last night and this morning, Fukada Kyoko made Ronan very satisfied, and Ronan would not ask Fukada to return empty-handed.
"It's a pity you are leaving this afternoon."
In the car, Kyoko Fukada still looked a little reserved, and said to Ronan: "Otherwise, I can take you to more scenic spots in the past few days."
Ronan rubbed her long black hair lightly and said, "Wait for the next time."
Suddenly, Fukada Kyoko thought of something. He quickly took out his handbag, took out a business card, and handed it to Ronan with both hands: "This is my personal contact method. If you come to the island country again, you can call this number at any time. I will be the first. Time is here."
Ronan took the business card and wrote the number directly on the phone. If you come here again, it would be nice to find Kyoko Fukada as an escort.
Compared with Western-style white horses, island women have a different style.
Ronan's phone rang at this time, and it was Kazuo Inoue who called. Ronan whispered a few words to him.
Kazuo Inoue called to confirm Ronan's itinerary, and at the same time vaguely asked if he was satisfied with Fukada Kyoko. Ronan praised Fukada Kyoko a few words.
After hanging up the phone, Ronan found that Kyoko Fukada looked at him nervously, smiled and said, "Don't worry."
Sure enough, when the celebrities of Japan and South Korea are not strong enough, their companies can be regarded as the masters of their lives.
In the case of Hollywood, how can the agency dare to use these methods to treat star actors?
In fact, it is still a matter of laws and regulations. If it were not for the "Entertainment Act" and the industry rules formulated by major Hollywood labor unions, Hollywood would not be relatively orderly as it is now.
The longest brokerage contract alone should not exceed three years, which can win great initiative for actors.
Kyoko Fukada smiled without speaking.
Ronan said casually, "Kyoko, if you are interested in going to Hollywood, you can contact me."
"Okay." Fukada Kyoko replied.
Ronan patted the front seat: "Send Miss Kyoko home first."
Kyoko Fukada gave an address, and the driver immediately turned to another road, and first sent Kyoko Fukada back home with the luxury goods given by Ronan.
Afterwards, Ronan returned to the hotel. Connie and Scott had packed up. Before the financing team set off, Songyuan Takuya came to see off on behalf of the island country's long-term credit bank.
"Mr. Anderson." Matsubara Taku was also quite polite: "Please forgive me if the hospitality is poor."
Ronan replied politely: "Mr. Matsubara is too polite."
Songyuan Taku also turned to the main business and said: "After the New Year, the first investment of the Long-term Credit Bank will be received. Please be patient for a few days."
Ronan nodded slightly: "No problem."
The first phase of financing initiated by the Pacific Film Foundation to the Long-term Credit Bank was up to 200 million U.S. dollars, which was divided into two payments. The first amount reached 100 million U.S. dollars. To mobilize such a large amount of funds, any company has strict review procedures. It will take some time.
Time is almost up, Ronan is ready to leave.
Matsubara Taku also said, "Mr. Anderson, if I go to Los Angeles again, I will definitely visit him."
Ronan shook his hand and said goodbye: "Welcome."
After exiting the hotel gate, getting in the car, a group of people went straight to Tokyo International Airport, and the Long-term Credit Bank specially sent a fleet to the airport terminal.
This is a very pure commercial cooperation, but the huge investment amount is destined to attract the attention of both parties.
Before getting on the plane, Ronan received a greeting call from Kyoko Fukada.
The two chatted a few words, and from the phone, Kyoko Fukada was in a good mood.
Ronan asked Fukada Kyoko before that if she wants to go to Hollywood to develop, he can help, but Fukada Kyoko is completely different from the previous Payaka, and has no intention of going overseas.
Perhaps Fukada can realize that it is even more difficult to leave the homeland to develop in other countries.
Everyone has different ideas, and not everyone dreams of breaking into Hollywood, and staying here may not be a good choice.
Therefore, Ronan gave Kyoko Fukada enough compensation in terms of material.
Girls are crazy about Hermes bags, Chanel perfumes and Cartier jewelry.
Ronan has read a lot of related news during his stay in Tokyo. It is said that female students from the island countries are doing more and more in pursuit of luxury goods such as designer bags and perfumes, and they are gradually becoming a common phenomenon.
Not only island countries, this situation has spread rapidly. Think about the university towns in the past. Many of them have become chicken coops. Among them, real and fake are filled with large numbers of school chickens, which have become the destination of many people's congresses.
Like the legends about green tea, milk tea, and iced black tea, it seems that they all came out of universities.
There are also famous "drink my water" stems, such as Nongfu Spring, Green Tea, Pulse and Red Bull, etc., each has a special meaning behind it.
In the VIP lounge, Connie walked over at this moment and whispered to Ronan: "People in the company's legal department have already met Robert Iger, and I will have formal discussions with Robert Iger tonight."
Ronan nodded slightly and said, "Tell them to make an agreement with Robert Iger before fighting for the new year."
"Okay." Connie said again: "Mr. George Clint called. Director Gore Wibinski completed all the post-production of "Midnight Bell" ahead of schedule and asked to enter the "Pirates of the Caribbean" crew. Participate in the preparatory work."
Ronan said, "Agree."
If the director wants to complete a work well, it is very necessary to participate in the preparation of the film.
Strictly speaking, Gore Wibinski joined a bit late because of "Midnight Ring".
Connie's words continue: "Director Gore Wibinski has understood the financial situation of the crew, and hopes that the funds in the later period can be in place soon."
Ronan thought for a while and said, "You call Gore Wibinski directly and tell him that all budget problems will be resolved after the New Year."
The first phase of the Pacific Foundation’s first investment of 100 million US dollars, most of which was used to solve the preparation budget for "Pirates of the Caribbean", and the remaining part was enough to start the two projects of "Jeans Summer" and "Hurricane Rescue".
When subsequent financing is in place, you can continue to inject capital into the crew.
After Connie left, Scott came in and discussed with Ronan again about the trip to Korea.
In the previous negotiations, Scott played an important role. Since Ronan and Matsubara Taku also reached a cooperation agreement, all the specific negotiations were completed by Scott.
The former investment manager, after experiencing the heavy blow of the stock market crash, not only recognized himself, but also matured step by step.
"South Korea should be a lot easier." Ronan is more optimistic: "Although the Embassy Pictures has not contacted investment institutions such as long-term credit banks, there are several large entertainment companies that are very interested in our financing."
Scott laughed: "Hollywood is still very attractive."
In this regard, he felt very real through negotiations with long-term credit banks. For many people who are interested in investing in the entertainment industry, Hollywood has an inexplicable attraction, as if it were faith.
The group soon arrived in Seoul and met Alex, the head of the Korean branch of Embassy Pictures.
This is a Korean-British in his thirties and a distributor who followed Alan Albert and Danny Donald from Polyking Films to Embassy Pictures.
In the hotel's reception room, Ronan said directly: "Alex, please tell me the latest situation."
Alex sorted out the information in his mind a bit and said: "I previously released the news as planned and made relevant publicity in the media. Because the Lee family's investment in DreamWorks was not successful, South Korea's large investment institutions were quite cautious. "
He took a look at Ronan and continued: "On the contrary, the Korean entertainment industry has responded strongly. Many powerful entertainment companies are very interested in investing in Hollywood movies, including SM Entertainment, B2M Entertainment Agency, UP Film Production The company has contacted me many times and wants to invest and cooperate."
Ronan asked, "How strong are these three companies?"
"It's okay. SM Entertainment and B2M Entertainment are strong." Alex replied: "Especially the former, which has just been listed and raised successfully this year and has a certain amount of capital in hand.
He added: "UP has the weakest strength and can only be regarded as a medium-sized company."
Scott asked concerned: "How much can they invest in total?"
Alex replied: "I didn't talk about the specifics, but according to my understanding, the total investment of the three companies together will not exceed 100 million US dollars, and it may be less."
"So..." Scott was somewhat disappointed.
Alex simply explained: "Korea has a small population~EbookFREE.me~The entertainment market is limited. Although the entertainment industry is very prosperous, the scale of the industry is far inferior to North America."
Ronan nodded: "It doesn't matter, tens of millions of dollars is not a lot."
When Relativity Entertainment was first established, limited by the company's reputation, scale and credibility, he almost tried his best to invest tens of millions of dollars.
Times have changed, and tens of millions of dollars is not much.
It really is the height at which you stand that determines your vision.
In any case, tens of millions of dollars is enough to solve the production of two ordinary medium-scale movies.
At this time, Alex said again: "BOSS, the person in charge of SM Entertainment, B2M Entertainment Brokerage, UAA Entertainment, wants to meet with you as soon as possible."
"Okay." Ronan said, "I will find out about these companies first, and then you can contact them."
