Chapter 717: Various temptations

Just entering December, Roland Emmerich walked into the Theory of Relativity Building, in full view, to the top of the building, Ronan took half an hour to meet with him in person, expressing his desire to meet Roland Emory. The idea of ​​odd cooperation.
　　
　　 Ronan expressed his desire to cooperate with Roland Emmerich, and he did not mention the project "Ten Thousand Years of Prehistory".
　　
　　 But at this moment, in the eyes of others, can cooperation with Roland Emmerich be another project?
　　
　　 Actually, Ronan was thinking about waiting for Roland Emmerich to fail once, and the two sides would work together to create a doomsday panic.
　　
　　 Roland Emmerich’s disaster films are very marketable, so forget about other types.
　　
　　 To use official idioms, the meeting between Ronan and Roland Emmerich was conducted in a friendly and enthusiastic atmosphere. In the end, a number of consensuses were reached, and both parties were satisfied with the results.
　　
After meeting with Roland Emmerich, Ronan went to the screenwriting department of Shahai Entertainment. Just like the script creation of those big first-line projects in the past, he convened a special screenwriting team to discuss the official name of "Robin Hood" and The script creation of the two major production projects of "Exodus".
　　
Too many people are staring at Shahai Entertainment. This is not a good thing. Hollywood is a circle full of news. It is impossible to keep it completely confidential. In the future, Shahai Entertainment will definitely adapt movies based on many copyrighted works and dig some holes through movie projects. Come out, the later period may also reduce trouble.
　　
　　 For example, if other companies really want to focus on these two projects, the investment and shooting failed again. In the future, Hollywood film production companies, even if they get any news from Shahai Entertainment, must think twice.
　　
　　 In a short period of time, these two projects are writing scripts as if they were real.
　　
　　 At the script meeting convened by Ronan, the screenwriters were also seriously discussing various creative possibilities.
　　
A screenwriter who once participated in the writing of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" script said: "Robin Hood's story is a classic theme, and it also lacks new ideas. I suggest adding some magic elements to the Robin Hood theme to make the project a low-magic film. ."
　　
　　 Ronan nodded slightly: "This aspect can be considered."
　　
　　 Another screenwriter said: "Can we consider turning it around? For example, treat Robin Hood as a villain, and then redesign a decent protagonist to defeat Robin Hood."
　　
　　 "This is not so good." And the screenwriter objected.
　　
　　 After discussing for a while, it was still the first screenwriter’s suggestion to add magic elements to the traditional Robin Hood theme.
　　
In contrast, when it comes to "Exodus", most screenwriters are surprisingly consistent in some respects. They believe that the mythological elements should be reduced, and the existence of supernatural elements should be appropriately ignored to make the story more humane and prominent Role.
　　
　　 This is just two things, Ronan will naturally not object.
　　
Hollywood’s personnel flow is extremely high. The fastest rate of staff turnover in Shahai Entertainment is in the screenwriting department. For the screenwriters contracted by Shahai Entertainment for this project, the next project may go to another company. It is also possible to work for other companies.
　　
　　 related news soon flew out of Shahai Entertainment.
　　
　　 As for which companies have flown into, Ronan cannot control it.
　　
　　 On December 3rd, at a charity dinner hosted by Steven Spielberg in the name of DreamWorks, Ronan received a lot of relevant news.
　　
　　Although the six major companies have been suppressing DreamWorks overtly or secretly, the two parties have never formally torn their faces. They have sent top executives to attend the charity dinner.
　　
　　 Relativity Entertainment is now on the same front as DreamWorks, Ronan also personally attended the scene and donated $100,000 to Spielberg’s charity foundation.
　　
　　 "Welcome to you." Spielberg shook hands with Ronan: "I heard that many works of Relativity Entertainment will hit the Oscars this award season?"
　　
　　 Ronan smiled and replied, "Yes. So, Steven, DreamWorks has to support us a lot."
　　
Spielberg was all shrewd behind the round glasses: "This is easy to say, I must support relativity entertainment." He suddenly pulled a big boy with a baby face from behind and introduced to Ronan: "This is Shia LaBeouf, my godson."
　　
　　 "Hello, Mr. Anderson." Shia LaBeouf is not a in the future, and respectfully greets Ronan: "It is my honor to meet you."
　　
　　 Ronan nodded slightly: "Hello, Sia."
　　
　　 This face is so familiar. It used to appear with Bumblebee and Optimus Prime. The subsequent various acts of death are simply a textbook on how Hollywood stars go crazy.
　　
　　 became famous early, and there are godfathers like Spielberg, who became popular all over the world when he was the hottest, but he played an extremely capricious hand in the entertainment industry.
　　
　　 There were rumors that when he was the craziest, he invited a female fan to flog him. The female fan not only flogged him, but also completed the achievement of blasting him.
　　
　　 Spielberg is definitely a good godfather. At this time, he said: "Ronan, Sia is an actor. He has been performing professionally since 1993. In the past few years, he has made a lot of movies and his ability is at the top of his peers."
　　
　　 Sia LaBeouf stood beside Spielberg with a smile, like a son.
　　
　　In Hollywood, Spielberg, the godfather, did something that people couldn’t fault: "Ronan, there is a chance for Sia, and I would like to ask you for a snack."
　　
　　 Ronan would not embarrass Spielberg on such occasions, and said, "I remember, Shia LaBeouf."
　　
　　 "Thank you Mr. Anderson." Sia LaBeouf said.
　　
Ronan nodded again, chatted a few words casually, and went to other places. Although he would not use Shia LaBeouf, it was impossible to find him to star in "Transformers", but Spielberg paved the way, Shia -LaBeouf's development in the next few years will inevitably be smooth.
　　
　　Think of Spielberg’s godsons and daughters. They are basically like this. With Spielberg’s help, they can easily get the resources that others dream of and become popular stars.
　　
　　Perhaps it was so easy that they didn’t know how to cherish, Drew Barrymore’s fall after becoming famous, Gwyneth Paltrow’s princess disease, Shia LaBeouf’s madness...
　　
　　 Spielberg's godson and goddaughter are not normal.
　　
　　 "Steven, please take care of his children?"
　　
　　 Sony Entertainment’s Chris came over, looked at Spielberg’s side, and asked, "How is that big boy?"
　　
　　 Ronan didn’t answer, but instead asked: "Steven recommended to you?"
　　
　　Chris shrugged: "Sia LaBeouf played in "Angels of Thunder 2," Columbia Pictures would not use him if it hadn't been recommended by Steven."
　　
　　 Ronan can only say: "Steven is very caring about his children."
　　
　　 "Columbia Pictures’ Spider-Man 3 project." Chris said simply: "Steven recommended Shia LaBeouf to play Venom."
　　
　　 He seemed to realize the sensitivity of the topic of "Spider-Man", and before Ronan took the call, he changed the topic: "There are rumors in the circle, and it is said that you are planning to adapt the movie based on Robin Hood and "Exodus."
　　
　　 Ronan asked, "Sony Columbia Pictures is also interested?"
　　
　　Chris shook his head: "Our strength is focused on Spider-Man. Don't worry, I will ask privately as a friend."
　　
　　 Of course, just listen to this kind of words, Ronan said vaguely: "I just have this idea."
　　
　　 Chris smiled and said, "You, I can't even believe it."
　　
　　 Ronan shook his head: "How is it possible? If I can't believe you, I just deny it."
　　
　　 The two chatted for a while, Chris went elsewhere, Ronan just wanted to talk to Tom Hanks about the progress of "The Da Vinci Code", and the old acquaintance Charles Rowan came over.
　　
　　 The topic naturally entered the film. Charles Rowan said: "Several epic films this year have all performed poorly. I heard that Shahai Entertainment still intends to enter this genre?"
　　
　　 Ronan certainly understood that this was a test, and said vaguely: "The worst period may not be the best opportunity. I hope that Shahai Entertainment can develop a new "Pirates of the Caribbean" series."
　　
　　 Charles Rowan calmly said, "There is something, let me talk about it in private. Ronan, I heard that Shahai Entertainment is talking about new project cooperation with Roland Emmerich?"
　　
　　 Ronan would not deny: "There is such a thing."
　　
　　 Charles Rowan reminded: "Roland Emmerich has an agreement with Warner Bros."
　　
　　 "Wait, Charles." Ronan interrupted him: "Shahai Entertainment is in charge of this matter. You can talk to George Clint directly."
　　
　　 Charles Rowan is a little depressed, but when you think about it, Ronan’s words are very reasonable.
　　
　　The goal is basically achieved, and Charles Rowan is gone.
　　
Ronan went to talk to Tom Hanks with the same slow progress of "The Da Vinci Code", said goodbye to Spielberg, and when he was about to leave, an executive from Twentieth Century Fox came to chat with him A few words.
　　
　　 The two sides are not very familiar, and the meaning of probing is very obvious. Ronan only touched ~EbookFREE.me~ and left.
　　
　　 Obviously, given the past success, these companies or people are very interested in the new project initiated by Ronan, and even can't help but come to try.
　　
　　 As for how the follow-up will develop, it is no longer within Ronan's control.
　　
　　 Epic films, if you want to make good results, you must invest heavily in production, and the resource occupancy rate is very high.
　　
　　 In the next few days, news about Roland Emmerich’s new project came.
　　
　　 On the bright side, there are four companies, Shahai Entertainment, Warner Bros., Twentieth Century Fox and Sony Columbia, competing for this project.
　　
　　 Projects that no one cares about may never have been good projects. The increasing number of competitors in Ten Thousand Years Before History made it easy for the intended companies not to let go. Roland Emmerich also got far better conditions than at the beginning.
　　
　　 Roland Emmerich finally chose to sign with 20th Century Fox, which he had been cooperating with for many years, after waiting for a while.
