The Best Entertainment Era
Chapter 94: Fat sheep
In the office of Shahai Entertainment, Ronan received Semir from the Los Angeles Board of Directors of the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority who came to visit.
"Mr. Anderson, I just transferred to Los Angeles from Abu Dhabi."
This Arab in suit and leather shoes speaks as fluent English as Saleh: "Minister Mansour asked me to greet you."
Ronan didn't know where this guy came, but his face was full of warm smiles: "Thank you." He said politely: "When the film project in hand is completed, I will go to Abu Dhabi again and thank the Minister personally."
The two made a few polite sentences, and Semir turned to the topic: "The minister is very concerned about your two new projects, are they going well?"
Ronan secretly increased his vigilance, but said casually: "Everything is going well. One of the films will be released in November, and the other will be released in early December."
While speaking, Ronan was also thinking, what is this Samuel for? If this time the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority wants to incorporate the affairs of the crew, it is quite troublesome.
This is not after the project is completed, a large amount of funds are being transferred between projects, and there are inevitably loopholes in the accounting.
Semir came to Los Angeles from Abu Dhabi for a short time, and he was carrying Mansour's special mission.
Abu Dhabi Investment Authority contacted the acquisition of Hollywood companies several times, but none of them succeeded. Medium and large companies have long been divided up, and it is meaningless to buy small companies.
The last gaze can only fall on the old acquaintance Ronan Anderson's Shahai Entertainment.
Of course, it is still in the wait-and-see and inspection stage. According to the senior management of the Investment Bureau, when Ronan Anderson's company is expanded and the operating conditions stabilized, he will make an acquisition.
Semir turned to ask: "I heard that you bought a distribution company some time ago?"
"A very small distribution company." Ronan sighed deliberately: "The Human Eradication Project was repeatedly frustrated in finding a distributor and was severely restricted by a large company controlled by Jewish forces. The film "Ace Agent" looked for It’s even more difficult for the issuer. In order to avoid the situation of the "Human Removal Project", I decided to establish my own distribution channel."
Semir praised: "Mr. Anderson has a plan, an idea, and execution ability. He deserves to be a business elite."
After I came here, I learned that distribution channels are very important to the film industry. Ronan Anderson has established distribution channels. If the film can be successfully released, the value of Shahai Entertainment will be even higher.
Ronan couldn't understand the real purpose of this guy, so he could only say: "It's too much praise, just to have a fairer distribution channel for the film we cooperated with."
"There is a production company and a distribution company." Semir said with a smile: "Shahai Entertainment will definitely have broad development prospects in the future."
Ronan can be heard, the topic of this person is always around the film company.
Does Abu Dhabi have ideas about their company?
He said with a heavy weight: "In Hollywood, it is not easy for small companies to develop. Maybe sometime it will attract the suppression of big companies."
Semir glanced at Ronan, and said with deep meaning: "Mr. Anderson needs to win the support of more friends."
As soon as he said this, Ronan suddenly remembered the people from the Investment Bureau who had approached the door during the "Human Removal Project", and instantly understood his intentions.
"Of course." He followed the other party's words and said: "Without Abu Dhabi's support, there can be no current Shahai Entertainment."
Let's just fool around a little bit. Several projects are in operation, so don't make any trouble.
Semir glanced at the time, and said: "There will be something to do in a while, I won't bother and keep in touch."
Ronan shook his hand and said goodbye: "Welcome to come often."
sent away this Semir and returned to the office. Ronan sat behind the computer, lost in thought.
Last time, Saleh, the lead party, told him that Mansour was preparing to acquire a large and medium-sized film company in Hollywood. Unfortunately, the acquisition was very unsuccessful and has not found a suitable target. Then those people stopped by and talked about Plan’s UAE copyright issues.
Ronan let out a sigh, suddenly felt that he underestimated Mansour.
The chief supports him and Shahai Entertainment, and there is a purpose behind it. If the inference is correct, is this a game of killing sheep?
Fatten up the sheep and then kill them.
And Shahai Entertainment is the sheep.
Even, it’s just a spare sheep.
Ronan guessed that the acquisition of other companies by the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority was very unsuccessful, and then he turned his attention to Shahai Entertainment.
After all, they are familiar with Shahai Entertainment, and the boss of his company has a good relationship with Abu Dhabi and is still an "old friend of Abu Dhabi."
If it is acquired, Abu Dhabi will definitely not treat him financially.
But selling the company...
Unless they are willing to buy shell companies.
Ronan figured it out, is this operability?
No matter what, he would not tie himself to an Arab.
This incident also attracted Ronan's attention. With the French director last time, Ronan raised the risk factor of Abu Dhabi by another level.
Everything told him that the Abu Dhabi line should be temporarily released.
…………
In April, Jessica Felton completed the recut of "Blair the Witch".
"Have you finished watching?"
Jessica Felton washed off his greasy head in the rest room next to him, went back to the editing room, and said to Ronan: "The director shot limited material. Except for those obviously flawed shots, the rest are basically used. On it."
Ronan just watched it again and said, "One hundred minutes is too long."
Jessica Felton wrapped up her hair, stretched out the chair and sat next to her, and said, "I haven't cut it yet."
"The length of the film is limited to more than 70 minutes, and the longest should not exceed 80 minutes." Ronan rubbed his eyes: "The camera shakes too much, and the audience can't stand it for a long time."
There will be frequent large-scale exits early, which is not good for the promotion of the film.
Jessica Felton nodded: "Yes, the audience has the limit to endure." She had to cut at least 20 minutes of content, and she asked: "Where else?"
Ronan turned on the player, pointed to the screen and said: "The film starts with a subtitle, to the effect that the film of this film is taken from a camera lost in a forest, which is to tell the audience the story of the film. It happened."
He coughed, and then said: "The content of the interview at the very beginning, continued to be streamlined, but the third person directly removed it. The performance traces were too heavy."
Daniel Malik hired the cheapest extras to serve as the residents of the town. Among them, there are many people who can't perform well. The interview seems a bit fake.
"Look at this one." Ronan continued to play the screen: "The second half of the line design has deviated from the theme~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and cut it out, try to be natural."
Jessica Felton took out a notebook and kept recording on it.
As an editor, she knows very well that the final choice is not in her own hands.
In most cases, the editor is often the embodiment of the will of the producer.
Ronan added, "The rhythm is a little tighter, and all the shots hesitating beside the witch's hut before the end are cut off. Also, when the camera lens falls, the middle part is removed, and the other person facing the wall is directly connected. In the opening interview, some villagers mentioned that the witch did not like the person she was going to kill staring at her, so she always let the victim face the corner."
Jessica Felton nodded: "Okay, no problem."
Ronan thought for a while, and then said: "Like the grass man on the tree and the scream at night, these are all properly used, and we count on these to create an atmosphere of terror."
"That's it?" Jessica Felton asked, looking up.
Ronan nodded: "That's it for the time being, I will tell you what I think of later."
No matter how you cut this film, it won't be a good movie. Good filming technology does not necessarily have a good movie. Therefore, some classic movies will endure for a long time. It is not because of its pioneering.
Not good-looking is not good-looking, not terrible is not terrible, it has nothing to do with its age.
Seeing Jessica Felton sitting in front of the workbench and placing the two habitual stalls on the countertop, Ronan tapped the table lightly and said, "Let’s take a rest for an afternoon. Go, Jie West, I treat you to lunch."
Jessica Felton shook her head very firmly: "Don't forget to eat. After eating and watching these shots, I feel like vomiting."
Ronan continued to invite: "A lunch will not be delayed for long."
