The Best Entertainment Era

Just entering December, Roland Emmerich walked into the Theory of Relativity Building, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, he came to the top floor of the building. Ronan took half an hour to meet with him in person and expressed his desire to have a relationship with Roland Emmerich. Odd collaboration idea.

What Ronan expressed was that he wanted to cooperate with Roland Emmerich, and the project Ten Thousand Years Before History was not mentioned at all.

But at this moment, in the eyes of others, can the cooperation with Roland Emmerich be another project?

In fact, what Ronan was considering was that after Roland Emmerich suffered a fiasco, the two sides would work together to create a doomsday panic.

Roland Emmerich's disaster films are very marketable, so let's forget about other types.

To use official clichés, the meeting between Ronan and Roland Emmerich took place in a friendly and enthusiastic atmosphere, and finally reached a number of consensus, and both parties expressed satisfaction with the results.

After meeting with Roland Emmerich, Ronan went to the screenwriting department of Shahai Entertainment. Just like in the past when those first-line major projects started script creation, he convened a special screenwriting group and discussed the relationship between the official name Robin Hood and Scriptwriting issues for two major production projects on Exodus.

Too many people are staring at Shahai Entertainment. This is not a good thing. Hollywood is a circle full of news, and it is impossible to keep it completely secret. In the future, Shahai Entertainment will definitely adapt movies based on many copyrighted works and dig some holes through movie projects. Come out, it may also reduce trouble later.

For example, if other companies really want to focus on these two projects, but they failed to invest in the filming, Hollywood film production companies will definitely think twice even if they get any news from Shahai Entertainment.

For a short time, both projects were 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 script writing of Pirates of the Caribbean said: The story of Robin Hood is a classic theme, and it also lacks new ideas. I suggest adding some magical elements to the Robin Hood theme to make the project a low-magic type of film. .”

Ronan nodded slightly: This aspect can be considered.

Another screenwriter said: Can we consider a reversal? For example, take Robin Hood as a villain, and then redesign a decent protagonist to defeat Robin Hood.

This is not good.

And the screenwriter objected.

After discussing for a while, I still implemented the first screenwriter's suggestion to add magical elements in addition to the traditional Robin Hood theme.

In contrast, when it comes to Exodus, most of the screenwriters are surprisingly unanimous in some aspects, and believe that the mythological elements should be reduced, and the existence of supernatural elements should be appropriately ignored, so as to make the story more humane and highlight the characters. role.

These are just two looks, so Ronan naturally wouldn't object.

The personnel turnover in Hollywood is extremely high, and the staff of Shahai Entertainment has the fastest turnover rate, which is the screenwriting department. The screenwriters who contracted with Shahai Entertainment for this project may go to other companies for the next project. The newly recruited screenwriters, before It is also possible to work for other companies.

Related news quickly flew out from Shahai Entertainment.

As for which companies he flew into, it was beyond Ronan's control.

On December 3rd, at the charity dinner hosted by Steven Spielberg in the name of DreamWorks, Ronan received a lot of related news.

Although the six major companies have been suppressing DreamWorks overtly or covertly, the two sides have never officially torn apart, and all parties have sent top executives to attend the charity dinner.

Relativity Entertainment is now on the same side as DreamWorks, and Ronan was there in person, donating $100,000 to Spielberg's charitable foundation.

Welcome. Spielberg shook hands with Ronan: I heard that Relativity Entertainment has many works that will hit the Oscars this awards season?

Ronan replied with a smile: Yes. So, Steven, DreamWorks should support us a lot.

Spielberg is shrewd behind the disc glasses: It's easy to say, I definitely 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 yet the bastard in the future, and respectfully greeted Ronan: It is my honor to meet you.

Ronan nodded slightly: Hello, Shia.

This face is so familiar, he used to appear on camera with Bumblebee and Optimus Prime, and all kinds of deaths later are simply a textbook on how Hollywood stars go crazy.

He became famous early and had a godfather like Spielberg. He was popular all over the world when he was the hottest, but he played a good hand in the entertainment industry extremely willfully.

There were rumors that this guy invited a female fan to whip him when he was at his craziest. As a result, the female fan not only whipped him, but also accomplished the achievement of rape.

Spielberg is definitely a good godfather. At this time, he said: Ronan, Shia is an actor. He has been acting professionally since 1993. He has made many movies in the past few years. His ability is at the top among his peers.

Shia LaBeouf stood next to Spielberg with a smile, like his own son.

In Hollywood, what the godfather of Spielberg did was really impossible to criticize: Ronan, there is a chance for Shia, please take care of it.

Ronan would not embarrass Spielberg on this occasion, and responded: I remember, Shia LaBeouf.

Thank you, Mr. Anderson, Shia LaBeouf said.

Ronan nodded again, chatted casually, and went to other places. Although he would not use Shia LaBeouf, it is even less likely to find him to star in Transformers, but with Spielberg paving the way, Shia LaBeouf -The development of LaBeouf in the next few years is bound to be smooth.

Think about Spielberg's godsons and goddaughters. They are basically like this. With Spielberg's help, they can easily get the resources that others dream of and become popular stars.

Perhaps these things come too easily, causing them to not know how to cherish them at all, Drew Barrymore's degeneration after becoming famous, Gwyneth Paltrow's princess disease, Shia LaBeouf's madness...

Spielberg's godchildren are not normal.

Steven asked you to take care of his children?

Chris from Sony Entertainment came over, glanced at Spielberg, and asked, How is that big boy?

Ronan didn't answer, but instead asked, Steven also recommended it to you?

Chris shrugged: Shia LaBeouf starred in Thunderbolt Angel 2. If it weren't for Steven's recommendation, Columbia Pictures would not use him.

Ronan could only say, Steven cares about his children.

Columbia Pictures' Spider-Man 3 project. Chris said simply: Steven recommended Shia LaBeouf to play Venom.

He seemed to be aware of the sensitivity of the topic of Spider-Man, and changed the subject before Ronan answered: There are rumors in the circle that you plan to adapt a movie based on Robin Hood and Exodus.

Ronan asked: Sony Columbia Pictures is also interested?

Chris shook his head: Our strength is concentrated on Spider-Man. Don't worry, I will ask privately as a friend.

Of course it is good to listen to such words, Ronan said vaguely: I just have thoughts about this.

Chris smiled and said, You, you can't even believe me.

Ronan shook his head: How is it possible? If you don't believe me, I just deny it.

The two chatted for a while, Chris went to another place, and Ronan just wanted to talk to Tom Hanks about the progress of The Da Vinci Code, and his old acquaintance Charles Rowan came over.

The topic naturally turned to movies. Charles Rowan said: The performance of several epic films this year is not good. I heard that Shahai Entertainment intends to enter this genre?

Of course Ronan understood that this was a test, and said vaguely, The worst period may not necessarily be the best opportunity. I hope that Shahai Entertainment can develop a new Pirates of the Caribbean series.

Charles Rowan remained calm and said, I have something to say in private. Ronan, I heard that Shahai Entertainment is talking about new project cooperation with Roland Emmerich?

Ronan would not deny it: There is such a thing.

Charles Rowan reminded: Roland Emmerich had an agreement with Warner Bros.

Wait, Charles. Ronan interrupted him: Sandhai Entertainment is in charge of this matter, you can talk to George Clint directly.

Charles Rowan was a little depressed, but thinking about it carefully, what Ronan said made sense.

The goal was basically achieved, and Charles Rowan left.

Ronan went to chat with Tom Hanks about the similarly slow progress of The Da Vinci Code, said goodbye to Spielberg, and was about to leave when an executive from Twentieth Century Fox came over to chat with him. A few words.

The two sides were not very familiar with each other, and the meaning of the temptation was very obvious. Ronan only touched a little bit, and then left.

Obviously, given the past successes, these companies or people are very interested in the new projects launched by Ronan, and they can't help but come over to try them out.

As for how it will develop in the future, it is no longer within Ronan's control.

For epic films, if you want to produce good results, you must invest heavily in large productions, and the resource usage rate is very high.

In the next few days, news about Roland Emmerich's new project came one after another.

On the bright side, four companies, Sandsea Entertainment, Warner Bros., Twentieth Century Fox and Sony Columbia, are competing for this project.

A project that no one cares about may never be a good project. The increase in competitors in Ten Thousand Years Before History made the interested company not let go easily, and Roland Emmerich also obtained far better conditions than before.

After Roland Emmerich waited for a period of time, he finally chose to sign with Twentieth Century Fox, which he had cooperated with for many years.
