The Best Entertainment Era

　　 InterContinental Los Angeles Century City Hotel.

　　 Saleh walked into a reception room, saw Semir and Aziz, and asked concerned "Is Ronan not here yet?"

　　 Semir and Aziz salute Saleh at the same time, "Your Highness."

　　 "This is not Abu Dhabi." Saleh waved his hand, "Simplify everything."

　　 Aziz looked at the time and answered the question just now, "We will meet Ronanyo at ten in the morning, and there is one hour left."

　　 Saleh greeted the two people, "Sit down, sit down and talk."

　　 Semir and Aziz sat on two chairs, and Saleh asked, "I only came to Los Angeles yesterday, and I don’t know much about the situation. Who of you talks to me."

The two looked at each other, and Aziz then said, "We have secretly investigated Ronan and his company for more than a month since December, combined with the opinions of some market research companies related to Hollywood, and gave Ronan -Anderson and his evaluation of the super-quality assets of Relativity Entertainment."

　　 Saleh frowned slightly, seemingly worried.

Aziz added, “At the beginning of last year, Ronan acquired a small film distribution company Embassy Pictures after successfully financing from Abu Dhabi, and combined with the original Shahai Entertainment to form Relativity Entertainment. Polyking Entertainment, which was acquired by Universal Pictures, has dug the entire distribution department in its hands and is currently integrating overseas distribution channels."

　　 He glanced at Saleh and continued, "Relativity Entertainment is already a film company with independent production and independent distribution capabilities, which is very rare in Hollywood."

　　 After coming to Los Angeles for more than a month, Aziz did a lot of work, but he didn't expect Saleh, a royal son, to understand this.

　　 Saleh was full of doubts and asked, "In other words, Ronan's Relativity Entertainment fully meets the acquisition requirements of the Investment Bureau?"

　　 "Yes." Aziz said, "Ronan is outstanding. As long as he is there, the development prospects of Relativity Entertainment are likely to exceed the companies such as Xinxian Films and Miramax that the Investment Bureau contacted last year."

　　 Semir agreed, "During my stay in Los Angeles, I have witnessed the miraculous success of "Blair the Witch" and "Death Is Coming" under Ronan's control."

　　 Saleh did not speak. This time he came to Los Angeles from Abu Dhabi, not to acquire Relativity Entertainment, but to be full of misgivings about the acquisition.

　　 "Two, isn't it a good idea for us to buy Ronan's company like this?" Saleh couldn't help asking, "Will Ronan refuse?"

　　 Aziz bowed slightly and said, "His Royal Highness has been worrying a lot. In my judgment, Ronan will not refuse.

　　 Saleh's brow furrowed even tighter. Unlike these two people who were born in Arab society, he was a university in the UK, and he always felt that there was a fundamental difference between the perspectives of Arabs and Westerners in considering issues.

Semir also agreed with Aziz’s statement that “Relativity Entertainment wants to develop and grow, and must have strong support.” He has been in Los Angeles for more than half a year and has done a lot of work. “Hollywood’s six film companies dominate, and other scales Larger companies are either subsidiaries of six companies, or survive in the cracks of six major companies. Ronan is talented and ambitious. Cooperating with us is the best choice."

　　 Saleh thinks of Ronan’s sincere friendship with him, but he still feels uneasy. "Is this unfair to Ronan?"

Aziz also said, "Your Highness, we have already made a plan. The Investment Bureau only requires that we get a controlling stake so that we can reserve enough shares for Ronan, and we will not treat him badly as a friend of Abu Dhabi in terms of acquisitions. ."

For Prince Saleh, he had a bad impression and thought he was a silly bag, but the other party’s status was extremely high, and he could only endure any dissatisfaction. He continued, “Once the acquisition is completed, the Investment Bureau will inject capital into Relativity Entertainment, and let Relativity as soon as possible. To become a large film company that can rival the Big Six companies, is it better to be a full shareholder of a company with a market value of tens of millions of dollars? Or is it better to be a shareholder of a company with a market value of several billion dollars?"

　　 Saleh thought for a while, this is very reasonable, so he didn't say anything.

　　 It's him who has jumped from his wealth to hundreds of millions, and he will agree without hesitation.

　　 This is also good, it can deepen the connection between Ronan and Abu Dhabi...

　　 There was a knock on the door, and someone came in to ask for instructions. Ronan had already arrived. Saleh quickly asked Ronan to come over and stood at the door to welcome him.

As soon as Ronan entered the very luxuriously decorated reception room, he saw Saleh, his face was instantly filled with surprises, and he took two steps forward and hugged Saleh gently, complaining in no way, "When did you come to Los Angeles?" Why don't you call me?"

Saleh smiled and said, "I just arrived yesterday. I took a day off. I wanted to call you." He looked back at Semir and Aziz. "It just so happened that they called you to meet today, I I just thought it was never too late to say it."

　　 Ronan patted his arm, "I will stay a few more days this time."

　　 Then, he shook hands with Semir and Aziz.

　　 Semir is also an acquaintance. I have seen him several times in Los Angeles. It is not the first time Aziz has seen him. Ronan remembers that he is a thin assistant next to Mansour.

　　 After a simple greeting, Ronan asked directly, "I don't know how many people are looking for me?"

　　 When he received the call, he had guessed, and he was mentally prepared. This is Los Angeles, not Abu Dhabi.

　　 Saleh looked at Semir and Aziz, but did not speak.

　　 Aziz's thin face was full of smiles, and he said, "Ronan, I heard that you integrated the distribution channels of PolyGram Films?"

　　 Ronan was a little surprised when he heard this

Surprised, these Arabs are obviously also learning about Hollywood, and immediately said, "Last month, a group of employees of the original Polaroid Pictures joined the Embassy Pictures."

　　 Semir asked with concern, "Can Embassy Pictures distribute movies outside North America?"

　　 "Not yet possible." Ronan is still like an old friend of Abu Dhabi. "Currently still adjusting, it will take a few months to integrate the channels at the earliest."

　　 The questions asked by these two people reminded Ronan. Perhaps he took the initiative to look for investment in Abu Dhabi. Abu Dhabi has already paid attention to Hollywood, and depending on the situation, he is still understanding the various operating conditions of Hollywood.

　　 When the "Human Elimination Project" was produced and released, the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority didn't know the difference between North American and overseas releases, and had a black eye.

　　 Hollywood is not the CIA after all. The so-called secrets and operating rules are only relative terms. It is precisely because of the asymmetry of information that there are such good financing opportunities as before.

　　 Once you take the initiative to understand, with the ability of the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, it will not take too long to understand the rules of the game in Hollywood.

Aziz said at this time, "Ronan, you are amazing. In just three years from taking over Shahai Entertainment, not only has it developed rapidly in the production business, it has also established North American and overseas distribution channels, which is much more than that of Hollywood. Film companies must grow fast."

　　 Ronan continues to sell people, "Thanks to the strong support of the Investment Bureau, my company and I have today."

　　 If possible, Ronan still wants to break up peacefully with the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority.

　　 Besides, the relationship between the two parties is a simple business investment relationship.

"Relativity Entertainment can produce and distribute, and already has the capital to compete in Hollywood." Aziz gradually led to the topic "Ronan, I think you should speed up the development of Relativity Entertainment, and make Relativity the best in Hollywood." movie company."

　　 This is Ronan’s idea, but he would not say that, "Hollywood is highly competitive, and Relativity Entertainment started late. I am very satisfied with the current situation."

　　 He also hinted at the other party, I have no ambitions, don't come to me if you have anything.

　　 Aziz didn’t understand the meaning behind the words at all, and said, “Are you worried that the funds can’t keep up?”

　　 Ronan just smiled, did not answer, and sighed that things would not develop as he wanted. The Arabs had their consideration after all.

Aziz thought Ronan had acquiesced to what he said, so he couldn't help but laughed and said, "Ronan, don't forget, you are a good friend of Abu Dhabi. The Investment Bureau has been cooperating with you and will give you the support you want. With your ability and the support of the Investment Bureau, Relativity Entertainment will definitely be able to grow bigger."

　　 But what is the price? Ronan seemed to see Erdan Gu Yanzu.

"The Investment Bureau has plenty of funds. If you want, a large amount of money can be transferred to Relativity Entertainment." Aziz believes that this friend from Abu Dhabi will not refuse this gift. "Ronan, we can create a new situation in Hollywood! "

Ronan put a smile on his face and considered it carefully~www.wuxiaspot.com~ If you accept funds from the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, it will undoubtedly speed up the development speed, but such cooperation is completely different from the investment in the film project of the Investment Authority. It's easy for God to send God away.

　　If it is an overseas non-governmental organization, it can still figure out ways to do things, but the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority is an official organization, and behind it is a country!

　　When it came to this point, if the other party didn't listen or understand the hint, Ronan decided to make it clear that this kind of business cooperation always requires you to please me.

　　 Ronan asked directly, "What's the price? What do I need to pay?"

Aziz was a little surprised. This was somewhat different from what he had imagined, but he quickly adjusted and said with a smile, "The Investment Bureau will invest in your Relativity Entertainment and acquire 80% of Relativity Entertainment for US$100 million. Inject 300 million US dollars and not dilute your shares, but there is one condition, Ronan, you must stay at Relativity Entertainment and serve as CEO."

　　 This condition really sounds very good. Ronan has a bit of a move. Earlier he thought about making Shahai Entertainment or Relativity Entertainment an empty shell and then selling it to the Investment Bureau.

　　 But this idea was quickly abandoned. The Abu Dhabi Investment Authority does not know much about Hollywood, but it is not a fool.

　　 If you have a shell company with no key employees, no library copyrights, and no distribution channels, will Abu Dhabi Investment Authority buy it?

　　 Aziz offered very good terms and said, "Ronan, continue to cooperate with the Investment Bureau."
