The Best Entertainment Era

Hearing Ronan's words, Harvey Weinstein asked subconsciously: What do you want Disney's equity for? He was startled: Ronan, wouldn't Relativity Entertainment...

Ronan raised his hand to stop Harvey Weinstein from continuing: Relativity Entertainment doesn't have the strength to swallow Disney.

Harvey Weinstein smiled, but he didn't think so in his heart. After Netflix went public, Relativity Entertainment was fully capable of acquiring any major Hollywood film company.

Roy Disney once told me that I would support him at Disney's shareholder meeting. Harvey Weinstein looked very embarrassed: I also promised him.

Ronan took a sip of coffee and said: As far as I know, the combined market value of the Disney shares in the hands of you and Bob is more than 40 million US dollars. With such a sum of money, you can completely break away from Mira. Max.

It is of little use for Harvey Weinstein to stay at Disney to create civil strife as the showdown between Michael Eisner and Roy Disney becomes more and more apparent.

He put down his coffee cup and continued: You two brothers can create a new company, and this money can also guarantee that you have enough equity in the new company.

Harvey Weinstein touched his ear: Ronan, why don't you directly invest in my company and Bob's.

He also wants to borrow chickens to lay eggs.

I have a shortcoming. Ronan said with a smile, I don't want to hide it from you, I have a strong desire for control, and the companies I participate in must be under my control. Harvey, if you let me invest in shares, you will not be afraid. Is your new company swallowed by Relativity Entertainment?

This... Harvey Weinstein's heart beat violently. Even if the new company to be established in the future has a total capital of hundreds of millions of dollars, it will be nothing more than a delicious cake in front of a behemoth like Relativity Entertainment.

How did this guy across the street get started? Harvey Weinstein is well aware that he keeps swallowing other companies.

Harvey Weinstein responded against his will: Ronan, I believe in you.

Ronan just laughed, but stopped talking.

Frankly speaking, he doesn't believe that he will only be a major shareholder of Weinstein Films in a stable manner.

Consider my proposal, Harvey. Ronan said again: Since we are going to leave Miramax,

Why bother to stir up Disney's muddy waters.

Harvey Weinstein is silent. Facing the stars and actors, he is a veritable Hollywood bigwig, but facing these companies worth tens of billions of dollars, he is just a small person.

Together, he and Bob have a net worth of over 100 million, which determines that he is not qualified to meddle in Disney's capital game.

Even if he went, he was only a spectator at best.

Harvey Weinstein fell silent, and after thinking back and forth for ten minutes, he slowly said, I agree.

Ronan nodded slightly, and asked, Bob's side...

Harvey Weinstein immediately said: I can call the shots, and Bob won't object.

Ronan had roughly heard of the way the two brothers worked together, and it was probably Harvey Weinstein's way of doing things, which led to the two not only turning against each other, Bob Weinstein also stabbed Harvey Weinstein The most terrible knife.

Decades of brotherhood, it is estimated that in such a little bit of daily life, all of them are exhausted.

It has to be said that in many cases, brothers are more difficult to get along with than siblings or sisters.

Ronan said: Harvey, after your new company is established, if necessary, Embassy Pictures can undertake overseas distribution.

With the shrewdness of Harvey Weinstein, he will definitely take away the distribution department of Miramax, and the North American distribution of the new company of the Weinstein brothers in the future is not a problem.

However, without Disney's Buena Vista International, overseas distribution will not be so easy.

Harvey Weinstein is well aware of his own strengths and weaknesses, saying: I hope that Relativity Entertainment will help me then.

Ronan smiled: No problem.

But Harvey Weinstein's words didn't end there: Ronan, I have one more condition.

What condition? Ronan frowned slightly.

Have two British screenwriters and producers approached you to pitch a film project? Harvey Weinstein knew that this was the only chance for Ronan to withdraw: A family's reaction and other aspects of the subject matter.

Ronan remembered what the producer named Andy Harris said, and said, That's what happened, the script is in my hands. Harvey, they also asked you to sell it?

Harvey Weinstein said: When I left the hotel just now, the writer Pete Morgan and the producer Andy Harris even came to the hotel to find me.

Ronan was not stupid, and immediately understood what he meant: Harvey, it seems that you are very interested in this project.

I'm a little interested. Harvey Weinstein knew that he couldn't hide it from others, and said, The topic of Diana has always been interesting. How much of Diana's dead money has been distributed by Vanity Fair and Tina Brown over the years? , I guess you have heard of it.

Ronan said: Tina Brown has advantages that other people don't have. She is Diana's girlfriend who has publicly stated more than once during her lifetime.

Harvey Weinstein laughed: I have been in Hollywood for many years, and I am used to the friendship of female celebrities. For them, the most terrifying existence in the world is actually girlfriends.

This remark made Ronan think of Lewinsky. There was a secret between Zipperton and Lewinsky back then, but Lewinsky shared the incident with his girlfriends more than once.

It is said that after the first time, the best friend had a mind, specially prepared recording equipment, secretly recorded for Lewinsky from the second time, and then sold it...

Later, the zipper door that spread all over the world evolved.

Fire prevention, theft prevention and girlfriend protection, this kind of thing is really not talking about.

Especially among celebrities, plastic flower sisterhood is too common.

Harvey Weinstein added: Ronan, a new company has been established and there is an urgent need for a movie project. See if you can...

The following words stayed in his mouth, but the meaning was already very clear.

Ronan was hesitant at first, after all, William provided a lot of help in the acquisition of Manchester United.

If it weren't for William, Ronan would have asked Andy Harris to talk to Andy Harris about the script project cooperation in the first place.

This also prompted Ronan to make up his mind: Okay, Harvey, for our cooperation, I will give in.

Relieved, Harvey Weinstein said, We were collaborators, never competitors.

Yes, we should work together. How could Ronan let Harvey Weinstein pass like this: Embassy Pictures will be responsible for all future overseas distribution of this film.

Harvey Weinstein stood up and shook Ronan's hand: No problem.

After the establishment of the new film company, with the capital accumulated over the years, it is not difficult to distribute in North America, but it is still quite difficult to distribute overseas within a few years.

In the past, Miramax films were always distributed overseas by Bowei International.

Now that he is leaving Disney, of course Harvey Weinstein will no longer cooperate with Disney's Bowei International.

As for the promise to Roy Disney, it was a verbal promise anyway, so it wasn't a problem at all.

Moreover, Ronan obviously intends to make trouble at Disney, and Roy Disney probably doesn't have the time and energy to bother with him about such a trivial matter.

Ronan and Harvey Weinstein negotiated the general direction, and the employees of both parties will negotiate more specific matters in Los Angeles.

After parting ways with Harvey Weinstein, Ronan first called Connie who stayed in Los Angeles and asked her to coordinate.

Then, Robert Iger was notified and he was also prepared.

Back at the hotel where he was staying, as soon as Ronan entered the hotel lobby, he saw Andy Harris greet him.

Good afternoon, Mr. Anderson. Andy Harris greeted and asked, What's the matter with the script?

He said: Harvey Weinstein of Miramax has expressed a strong intention to cooperate, but I have not agreed. I still want to cooperate with the top big companies in Hollywood.

Ronan shook his head: Mr. Harris, I can only say sorry, you have cooperated with Miramax and Harvey Weinstein.

He smiled politely: Goodbye.

Andy Harris was taken aback for a moment, this was completely different from the plan, and quickly tried to keep up with Ronan: Mr. Anderson...

Finch suddenly appeared in front of him: Mr. Harris, please stay.

Seeing several confidential people suddenly appearing around, Andy Harris could only stop and watch Ronan turn into the elevator room dedicated to the presidential suite.

Just got rejected? Andy Harris shook his head and smiled wryly.

Finch seemed to be informed and said, Mr. Harris, please wait a moment.

Andy Harris' heart couldn't help stirring violently a few times. Is this repentance?

Finch didn't stop talking: Please wait for two minutes, Mr. Anderson has sent someone over to return the script.

Andy Harris, with his last hopes dashed, left the hotel waiting to get the script.

Although a little frustrated and disappointed, but not too anxious, after all, there is Harvey Weinstein to sell.

It's just not easy to sell at a high price.

In the afternoon of the same day, Mansour and the Abu Dhabi consortium held a press conference in Manchester, officially announcing that they had fully acquired the Manchester City club.

First Roman Abramovich, then Ronan, and now an Arab rich man with a mine at home.

The Premier League has truly begun a golden dollar era!

Ronan accepted Mansur's invitation and went to a celebration reception held by the Abu Dhabi consortium in the name of Manchester City that night.

Starting this winter, Manchester City will wave their oil checks and set off a buy-buy-buy model in professional football.

Ronan left England the day after the reception.

But instead of returning to Los Angeles, he came to Berlin, Germany to meet Tony Koch.
