Chapter 57： Leather bag company

The party didn’t last long. After eating the food, Scott took Ryan, Nicole, and Jinsli to the study room of the villa. Several people communicated in advance, knowing that the next thing to talk about is very important. .

We have been together for two years. Whether it is Scott or Kingsley, Ryan has long been regarded as a child. They know the boy's intelligence and maturity.

In Hollywood, the people who stand in front of the stage are the kings and queens of heaven, but in places where others cannot see, there are teams of several or even dozens of people serving them, and these people often hold many public places in their hands. If they don’t understand the inside story, once they have a problem, the blow to the people in front of the stage is not serious.

For example, in the previous life, after Tom Cruise failed to compete for the best actor Oscar, he attributed all the reasons to Pai Kingsley, thinking that she was too **** Nicole Kidman, but ignored him. Asked, the contract with her was cancelled.

As a result, the angry Pie Kinsley made a counter-attack and threw Tom Cruise’s disgraced face directly from the peak of his career. Scandals such as homosexuality, abnormal beliefs, and behavior quirks have never been broken, even until Ryan is reborn. At that time, he never escaped from the whirlpool of scandal and crawled out.

Perhaps it was a relationship that met in advance. Pie Kingsley and Nicole Kidman became friends who talked everything. They had a very good relationship with Ryan. Moreover, their behavior was very similar to what he had heard of in previous lives. very different.

Scott Swift, in his previous life, took care of Taylor's investment career in an orderly manner. Regardless of word of mouth or reputation, he is far better than his daughter. He is a stock and investment manager who guards his career path.

However, in the past and present, Ryan has grown up in a cold environment. Except for Nicole, it is difficult for him to completely trust anyone, even those who have vowed to hold hands forever, let alone others.

You must know that a person will be blinded by enough immediate benefits, his eyes and heart, and he wants to work hard in Hollywood, wants to defeat his own enemies, he needs a strong team, a team that minimizes internal problems.

How can we unite the people around me? In addition to a strong relationship, that is to have common interests.

"You heard that right, I want to set up a film production company." Ryan's words have never been so sure.

He waved his hand to interrupt Pai Jinsli who wanted to ask questions, "After listening to me, I know that none of us has the ability to run a film company, nor does it have enough contacts and funds, but the film company I'm talking about is not A professional production company like Miramax or Xinxian."

At this point, Jinsli and Nicole Kidman have already understood. Obviously, Ryan wants to set up a leather bag company like other movie stars.

"Yes, we set up a shell company." Ryan smiled helplessly, "What we need is a sum of money to rent a studio in Hollywood or Burbank and hire a few people in the industry."

Such a shell company, to be precise, is a leather bag company. There are so many in Hollywood, especially many big stars. They often set up such a company. They have no equipment, no production team, no office location, or even staff. They only do it. What is to do is to adopt a way of sharing accounts and cooperation with film companies, which can not only give oneself a certain right to speak, but also make profits in this way.

For example, Tom Cruise, Julia Roberts and others in the previous life have established such companies, and the most successful ones are Brad Pitt and Drew Barrymore.

Especially Drew, she came from a family of interpretation, the godfather is Spielberg, the godmother is Sophia Rowland, she is good at communication, has an amazing relationship in Hollywood, she founded the "Flower.Films" production company at the age of nineteen. It can be regarded as a model in this regard, and has successively cooperated with major film companies in "One Kiss", "50 Days of First Love" and "Thunderbolt Angel", etc., and obtained tens of millions of benefits from it.

What Ryan wants to establish is such a company. He does not have the extensive network of Drew, but has inherent advantages. He only needs to cooperate with other film companies on his own script. Several works have been successful successively. , He gradually had such confidence and capital.

He has been a human for two generations, and he still understands the truth that haste is not enough. Now he has only a small amount of funds, what can he do with others?

Set up a film company to compete with several giants? Don't be kidding, not to mention other aspects, the theaters and overseas screening rights alone will make them suffer.

The DreamWorks in the previous life is the best example. Ryan is confident that he has some talent in art, but the rest is not a mess, he can only be said to be mediocre. He doesn't think he is alone, well, even if you add a few people around him , Can it be compared with the Big Three of DreamWorks?

Spielberg and the trio wanted to create a new era, but they faced the joint strangulation of the seven major film companies, and they had no choice but to end in hatred.

Of course, the reasons are very complicated, and the things he saw in his previous life are just some superficial phenomena.

Hollywood in the future will be the era of giants. It is not a movie giant, but a media giant. He has only heard of media groups acquiring film companies, and he has never heard of an example of a media giant relying on a film company alone to become a media giant.

What's more, after entering the new century, it has become increasingly difficult for movies to make profit only at the box office. The entertainment industry can become the second largest industry in the United States after manufacturing. It is because of the existence of large media groups that this industry has formed a complete industry. Industry chain.

"Ryan, you are distracted again." Nicole squeezed his ear lightly. Ryan quickly recovered and stopped thinking about unrealistic things. Anyway, he didn't have so much ambition for the time being, and cooperated. It's the kingly way, people who eat alone will not be welcomed anywhere.

"Where did you go?" Ryan scratched his head.

"Establish a shell company." Jinsili reminded.

"Ah, that's it. We funded the establishment of a film company, and cooperated with other film companies in a way of sharing accounts to jointly produce my work."

I have to say that he only has a little knowledge in business.

"Furthermore, I need to use the amount of investment I occupy to have a say in some movies, especially the choice of actors." Ryan emphasized again.

Hollywood is a realistic place. After he signs the contract, those who are profiteering will not care whether he and the cream niche are rivals. As long as they can make money, they will still invite him to play.

Ryan doesn't want to write those works in advance, and the starring is still Tom Cruise.

In addition to interest binding, this is also another reason why he wants to set up a company.

"I think you should have confidence in my work..." Ryan smiled.

"Yes, we do have confidence in you." Jinsili sighed softly, "But the brokerage company I want to set up the most."

"I think it would be a wise investment." Scoot nodded his head. He knew a little bit about Hollywood. This method of borrowing shells and laying eggs is exactly the way Hollywood stars are used to.

"Well, I'm fine." Anyway, it's just investing in Ryan's works. The risk is not worth mentioning compared with the return. Jinsli temporarily gave up the agency's plan.

"Nicole, how about you?"

"My dear, you know that I have always supported you the most." Ni shook his hand vigorously.

Next, there is the question of the amount of capital. Ryan currently has about 6 million US dollars in funds. This is the remuneration of "Terminator 2" and the latest royalties from the publisher. Nicole does not have much money on hand. About 2 million US dollars can be collected. As for Jinsli and Scott, they each took 1 million.

"I hate the tax bureau." Ryan scolded after discussing the share sharing.

"Actually, everyone hates them." Scott laughed. He naturally understood why Ryan said that. After paying the personal income tax, the remuneration of "Terminator 2" and the royalties of several novels were only left. After paying more than 6 million US dollars, it will hurt anyone to change it.

"Are there any other tax avoidance methods?" Ryan asked unwillingly.

"Ryan, to avoid taxation, I have established a foundation for you. This is the best way." Scott shrugged. The tax bureau is the most troublesome place for managers like them.

"Okay." Ryan nodded, "Scott, you will be responsible for the establishment of the company. For the time being, you will be in charge of operations. Anyway, there will not be much business in the future. There will also be Pate, who will recruit a few people in the industry.

"No problem, in fact, in the team I set up for you, UU Reading has such people." Jinsili seemed to have thought of something and asked, "The company's first business will not be " Bodyguard, right?"

"Bingo~" Ryan snapped his fingers, "Yes, you have to talk about this, Pat, remember to divide the original soundtrack!"

Share-sharing cooperation is the norm for Hollywood celebrities. Jinsli didn’t say anything. After all, Ryan’s works have been selling well. This industry is like all business models. Successful people will always give people inexplicable confidence, and Psychological hint of success next time.

As for the company's name, DreamWorks? Forget it, this name is clearly the life of bankruptcy and acquisition. Of course, one day after Ryan gets tired of playing, he might sell the company to several giants like George Lucas.

In the end, a few people discussed it, and simply called Jenkins Pictures, so that Ryan's reputation could be fully utilized.

The shell film company was determined in this way. Apart from a ready-made script and limited funds, there is nothing commendable. Perhaps one day it will close like other companies established by movie stars.

In the center of the world's film industry, dozens of shell film companies are established or go bankrupt every day.

What are the future plans for Jenkins Film Company? Sorry, Ryan Jenkins has no long-term plans. The only thing he has thought about is to plagiarize a few series of movies, hold the copyright in his hands, and sell the company one day in the future, so that he can sell it for a big price.
