Chapter 332: Good at

In the Shahai Entertainment staff lounge, Anne Hathaway looked curiously as a burly man walked towards Ronan's office through the open door.
Anne Hathaway looked at the delicate girl diagonally across and asked: "Linsey, who is that person?"
Lindsay Bill took a glance, continued looking down at the script, and replied: "Uvi Bauer, a German director."
"This is Uvi Bauer who directed "House of Death"?" Anne Hathaway was a little surprised: "This is not like a director, but more like a street gang member in Queens, New York."
Lindsay Bill kept his eyes on the script: "I wonder if this kind of person can be a director. But Ronan thinks he will succeed, and the commercial success of "House of Death" has also been a huge success."
Anne Hathaway instantly turned into Ronan and blew: "Ronan's vision is not comparable to us."
Lindsay Bill shrugged slightly, and didn't answer Anne Hathaway.
In the office, Ronan saw Uvi Bauer's full face again.
Compared to other people who think Uvi Bauer looks a bit fierce, Ronan felt that this face was full of joy because he had seen a lot of information about Uvi Bauer in his previous life.
A director who can become a public enemy of game fans, who else besides Uvi Bauer?
The game adaptation of the movie is definitely Uvi Bauer's masterpiece, this time Ronan is no exception.
"Good news!" Uvi-Bauer said to Ronan excitedly: "Ronan, I have good news!"
Ronan let Uvi-Bauer sit down first, and then said, "Share it."
Uvi-Bauer quickly said: "I have negotiated the film adaptation rights for a game?" He reminded: "Remember that I told you last year that there is a computer game that will be released in the fall? After the game is launched , I found a game production company, worked with them for more than two months, and finally reached an agreement on film adaptation."
Hearing what he said, Ronan praised: "Well done, Uvi. The news you brought is really good."
Uvi-Bauer has cooperated with Shahai Entertainment once. Knowing Ronan’s serious and responsible attitude, he quickly opened the briefcase, took out the project plan, put it on the desk in front of Ronan, and said, "This is mine. You have a look at the planning and related materials."
When Ronan saw the thick pile, he didn't look at it immediately. He had to take the time to take a closer look and said, "You can talk briefly."
Uvi-Bauer has rare seriousness on his face, saying: "The game is the "Dungeon Siege" released by GPG Studios last year. It is a role-playing type of magic theme. After the game was launched, it has received enthusiastic response from game fans. Supporters Quite a lot, if we adapt a movie, we naturally have a considerable audience."
After experiencing the operation of the movie "House of the Dead", Uvi-Bauer has obvious experience in movies.
Ronan squeezed his chin: "This game project seems to be good."
The game "Dungeon Siege" is quite famous in its previous life. If there are enough audiences among game fans, it will attract more attention and it is estimated that more people will join the ranks of attacking Uvi Bauer.
Proper guidance at that time is likely to bring about a situation where watching movies scold Uvi Bauer.
However, it is necessary to control the scale of investment.
"How much production budget do you expect?" Ronan asked.
Uvi-Bauer was looking forward to it and said: "It doesn't need to be too much, but how can it be more expensive than the previous one?"
The previous production budget was only 3 million U.S. dollars, which also included the copyright fees for the game adaptation film. Ronan thought about it and asked, "What kind of movie do you plan to make?"
Uvi Bauer seems to have thought about it a long time ago: "Although this is a game adaptation, I am going to take off the coat of the game. It makes people feel more like an epic legend and brings more enjoyment to the audience."
This is similar to "House of Death", Ronan quite agrees: "From the game, but out of the game."
Uvi-Bauer laughed and said: "After "House of Death", I really discovered something, especially the game adaptation of the movie. The game is completely different from the movie. It is suitable for the setting and plot of the game, and may not be suitable. Adapted into a movie."
He is confident: "For the case of "Dungeon Siege", the game settings are too complicated and not intuitive enough for the movie. Therefore, I am going to adapt this film into a heroic revenge movie, roughly telling a farmer on the road to revenge. , The story of finally becoming a hero and saving a kingdom."
Ronan folded his hands on the arm of the chair and said, "This is Hollywood."
Uvi-Bauer added: "I will not copy all the plot settings in the game. I intend to add many new elements. It is understandable to add a little scale to the film. This can have a positive effect and help the whole The story is raised to a whole new level, which can distinguish the film from those traditional game adaptations."
"Yes." Ronan believes that the value of the film is more reflected in Uvi-Bauer himself: "I will give you a clear reply after I read the plan."
Uvi-Bauer reminded: "Don't delay for too long, and send professionals as soon as possible to discuss copyright transfer with GPG studio."
Ronan said, "Don't worry, I will give you an answer before the new year."
Uvi-Bauer stood up: "I won't bother. Goodbye, Ronan."
Ronan stood up and shook hands with Uvi-Bauer and escorted him out of the office.
Call Anne Hathaway. Ronan took the plan sent by Uvi Bauer and returned to Beverly Hills with her. On the way back, he read the plan while thinking about the feasibility of the project.
Controlling the scale of investment is the first condition, and we must strive to keep the production budget of this film at around 10 million US dollars.
Publicity and marketing are the key to making the film profitable, and the key point is Uvi Bauer himself.
Then there is the actor. I remember that the protagonist of the previous life was Jason Statham. As a rare star who can perfectly control the bald hairstyle, if the pay is right, it would be nice to get Jason Statham.
B-level film big coffee still has a certain appeal.
"Want to work?" Anne Hathaway looked at the plan in Ronan's hand curiously: "So ecstatic."
Ronan closed the plan, picked it up and shook it, and said: "German director Uvi Bauer has planned a big project and wants to get Shahai Entertainment to invest."
Anne Hathaway is an actor. Hearing the term big project, she immediately became interested and asked, "What big project?"
Rona said in general: "Magic type...well, how can I put it, the subject matter is similar to Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings"."
Anne Hathaway became more interested: "Magic movies are now popular in Hollywood." She tentatively asked Ronan: "Is there a role suitable for me?"
Ronan shook his head and said, "Annie, this project is not for you."
This is the truth, starring in a game-adapted movie directed by Uvi Bauer, without the prosperous beauty of Jason Statham, is very likely to hinder future development.
"Oh." Anne Hathaway responded.
Ronan glanced at her. The two have always been very happy together. He rarely explained: "Because this is a bad movie that can be expected."
Anne Hathaway looked at him strangely: "Bad film? Why do you want to shoot a bad film?"
Ronan said directly: "I am a producer and a businessman. As long as the film is profitable, there is no fundamental difference between a classic good movie and a super bad movie."
Anne Hathaway opened her mouth: "I understand."
Bentley elegantly drove into the future world estate, Ronan and Anne Hathaway quickly entered the restaurant to enjoy the dinner carefully prepared by Ronan's personal chef.
Ronan specially let the kitchen prepare luxurious and exquisite meals.
The first dishes are potato salad with black truffle and smoked salmon, which melts in your mouth.
After the Australian pumpkin seed soup is the main course, there are two main courses: the first is pan-fried deep-sea red fish and sturgeon roe sauce with seafood cream sauce, and the other is Wellington beef tenderloin with foie gras mushrooms.
The final dessert is Fona Premium Chocolate Raspberry Cake.
These dishes can also be eaten in three-Michelin-star restaurants, but in Ronan’s manor, from ingredients to condiments, all the most high-end goods on the market are used. The raw materials alone cost more than US$20,000.
Ronan is very clear that as the company's development is on the right track, income continues to increase, and more and more attention is paid to luxury and enjoyment in life, and it is difficult to turn back.
Things like yachts and private jets also appeared in his life planning for a while.
Of course not now.
As night fell, and the sky was completely dark, Ronan took Anne Hathaway to the terrace on the roof garden, catalyzed by a bottle of red wine, and enjoyed private moments with the sky full of stars.
Then Ronan found out that he had forgotten one thing and did not order Selena Kyle's professional equipment.
Fortunately, there is still time in the future. Anne Hathaway, who is in her early twenties, is a good time to be beautiful.
White as snow, graceful posture ~EbookFREE.me~ coupled with exquisite features and elegant smile, enough to attract Ronan for a long time.
After the New Year, Ronan quickly handled the work at hand. The first investment made by the Long-Term Credit Bank of the Island Country and the three major entertainment companies in South Korea, after entering the Pacific Film Foundation’s account, immediately transferred the corresponding amount to "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "Hurricane "Rescue" and "Summer of Jeans" on the accounts of the three crews.
After reading the plan for "Dungeon Siege" submitted by Uvi Bauer, Ronan also approved the game adaptation film project. The production cost is expected to be 10 million US dollars, and he quickly contacted the game studio to discuss copyright authorization issues. .
In addition, he also asked people from the company's production department to contact Jason Statham to see if he could invite Jason Statham to play the leading role.
After dealing with these tasks, Ronan left Los Angeles and went to San Francisco to deal with some business related to Netflix.
Relativity Entertainment started with the acquisition of Netflix. In addition to injecting capital, it also made a lot of preparations including exploring the license of the film.
