Chapter 137： About the future

While the filming of "Jurassic Park" is intense, the production of the later cg images is also in full swing. The crew has already formulated a complete publicity plan. On the basis of maintaining a certain degree of mystery, some of the latest shooting highlights will be released from time to time. At this time, a starring actor in the crew can burst into a vigorous scandal, and that is definitely something everyone loves to see.

For Nicole, this movie is different from the other three movies she filmed after she came to Hollywood. Dr. Ali Settler had a lot of desperate running and action scenes, which made her suffer a lot.

Finally came to a weekend rest day, Nicole simply rejected the shopping plan with Judy Foster, and I planned to take a good rest at home. I didn’t expect that just after breakfast, a Disney staff would come to the door and give it away. A batch of trial-produced animal dolls came.

"Ryan, would you just take a look?" Nicole placed more than a dozen dolls in the corner of the living room and shouted toward the sofa.

"Nicole, bring Simba and Nana, thank you." Ryan turned his head halfway from the sofa.

"Honey, you should come by yourself."

"Please, Nicole," Ryan murmured, "Can't Disney send it here next week this weekend?"

Now that "The Lion King" is in the process of stepping up production, the animal dolls in it are ready to be finalized and produced. Disney sent samples over and naturally wanted to ask him the original author's opinion.

It's a pity that Ryan is a layman for dolls and the like. After a glance, he feels pretty good, especially the young Simba, who can definitely poke the cuteness of many people.

The fluffy golden-yellow lion cub is really cute. Nicole held it in her hand and kept watching. Ryan threw Nana's sample aside and watched the long-winded show on TV. It was quite boring. But the honey-gold curly hair tied into a ponytail tugged over, squeezed it in his hand and played gently. That feeling...well, at least it's more interesting than TV shows.

"Ryan, my hair has just been taken care of." Nicole glared at him, but Ryan didn't care at all and murmured, "Don't be so stingy, Nicole."

Nicole rolled her eyes and moved closer to Ryan so that he could pull more hair, and sighed inwardly. As long as he is happy.

The voice of speaking outside the living room sounded. It seemed that it was the voice of Lisa and Scott talking. Then, amidst the sound of dense footsteps, the little girl with messy golden curls, who looked a little overly active, rushed into the living room and saw the doll in Nicole's hands at a glance.

"My! This is... mine!" Tyler was really not at all polite. He rushed over and grabbed the doll in his hand, and then took Nana, who was still on the other side of Ryan, in his arms, "It's all mine! These! All!"

"Hey, Tyler, slow down, no one will fight you."

Nicole quickly took one of her hands, for fear that the little guy would fall to the ground.

"Nicole, these... are the full text of my No. 1 Datang Village!"

Tyler smiled flatteringly at Nicole. She knew very well who was the master of the family.

"Okay. Honey, it's all yours." Nicole could only laugh helplessly.

"Taylor..."

Scott Swift walked in at this moment, looking at his overly active daughter, also having a headache.

"Hi, here. Scott."

Since the troublemaker came in, Ryan has simply become an invisible person, and dealing with her is definitely a headache.

"Hello, Nicole, and Ryan." Scott sat across from Ryan.

"Ryan... these are mine!" Ryan didn't want to talk to Tyler, but the little girl wouldn't let him go. This guy seemed to understand that he was a privileged class, "I want to listen to the guitar! Now!"

With this trick-or-treating bag here, it is difficult to talk about business matters. Nicole knew that since Scott came over on the weekend, there must be business matters to talk about. Reluctantly rolled his eyes, picked up two dolls, and pulled the mischievous ones. The little girl went to the recreation room.

"Back?" Ryan asked with a smile after the maid served coffee.

"I just came back from Richmond yesterday." Scott opened the briefcase, took out a document, and handed it over. "I also hired two formal investigative agencies. They stayed in San Rafael and Richmond very much. It took a long time to obtain these information."

"Don't worry, no illegal means were used." Scott added.

"Oh~ It seems that their situation is very bad." Ryan looked at the file, and most of the contents were not what he could understand in his previous life. "It's worse than I thought and heard..."

Scott took the conversation, "It is true. In the 90s, in order to raise the necessary operating costs for the studio, they sold the hardware department, which also included dedicated hardware technology and image processing software, and from only a hundred Eighteen of the employees were laid off. In order to save rent and expenses, the office was moved from San Rafael to a one-story building in Richmond. In 1990, the net book loss was as high as 8.3 million U.S. dollars. It should actually be more."

"No wonder that guy treats it as a burden." Ryan could only sigh when he heard this.

"In fact, they are in a more difficult situation now. Last year and this year, they laid off another 30 people, including President Chuck Costa. There are only 42 people left in the entire studio. The number of people at the time of initial creation."

"What about finances?" Ryan simply closed the folder.

"So far, the actual loss in the first two quarters of this year has exceeded 5 million U.S. dollars. If no surprises, the entire year's loss will create a new high." Scott drank a cup of coffee, sighing in words.

Ryan smiled with satisfaction. The harder the situation there is, the better it will be for him, "Where are the few people I asked you to check?"

"John Lasseter, Andrew Stanton, Ed Kamel and others are still there, but if the losses continue, no one knows whether they will voluntarily resign or become the next layoff target."

With arms around his chest, Ryan pinched his chin. If nothing happens, these people will stick to it until the day of success.

"Ryan, really want to buy it?" Scott frowned. "No one in Hollywood or even the entire IT industry is optimistic about them. I think you should have heard that that guy has been peddling it, if not Microsoft refused A quotation of up to 50 million U.S. dollars. Now it has become a subsidiary of Microsoft."

"Also, although it is still unclear, its loss in 91 years should exceed 90 years, and this year it will even exceed 10 million US dollars." Scott is obviously persuading.

"It's not that we are downloading TXT now." Ryan waved his hand casually. He doesn't have so much cash now. "Where is Disney?"

"They signed an investment agreement of 26 million US dollars. It is said that the funds have not arrived in the account. Disney's board of directors has huge disagreements. I heard that Michael Eisner has repentance. He has never been very optimistic about animation. Production. Presumably this is not a secret..."

This is the most troublesome place. Ryan rubbed his forehead. How can Disney give up this agreement?

Of course, this needs to be said after the things are obtained. If "The Lion King" will be as successful as the previous life, it may be an opportunity. After all, this movie has pushed Disney animation to its peak, making most people optimistic about the future of hand-drawn animation.

In addition, the exchange of interests is also a way. As long as there are enough immediate interests, it is sure to impress Michael Eisner and the Walt Disney Board of Directors.

"Well, Scott, help stare over there, and..." Ryan frowned. Lack of money is indeed a big problem, "how much money do we have now."

"There is not much cash flow, unless you sell the stocks and fixed assets you hold."

"This... forget it." After a few years, Scott finally absorbed a portion of the stock from the stock market. Isn't it a fool to sell at this time? Ryan thought for a while and said, "There should be a large amount of money in the account early next year..."

Indeed, next year, not only will there be royalties from the novel market this year, but also the dividends of the album "Ryan Jenkins". In addition, the overseas box office and surrounding share of "Bodyguard" and "Yihai Xiongfeng" have not been The partner settles, if the funds are still not enough, then they have to go to the bank to borrow.

Given his and Nicole's creditworthiness, a loan of ten to twenty million dollars shouldn't be a big problem.

When the money is used, I hate less! Ryan couldn't help feeling a little bit, why didn't he have the protagonist spirit, just went to the stock market to roll around, and hundreds of millions or even billions of funds were obtained?

Just wait. When "Jurassic Park" comes out, whether it is movie box office or peripheral products, it will completely crush the entire world film industry. Then you can spread the entire villa with dollars and enjoy the style of a local tyrant.

Near noon, Scott Swift and his daughter were sent away. Ryan fell into thinking again. This investigation was conducted through other companies hired by Scott. This is very inconvenient and easy to leak news. Talk about yourself. Do you want to sponsor or set up a company of this kind?

"Ryan, what do you want to eat?" Nicole walked over at this moment.

"Whatever, I like everything you do."

Seeing Nicole Kidman, Ryan suddenly remembered the divorce case in her previous life, in which Tom Cruise hired a notorious Italian. Although the methods were disgraceful, they were extremely practical.

All the time Nicole has appeared in all works related to him, and the huge benefits he can bring to the producers have made Nicole hardly to suffer. Banknotes are against each other.

But Ryan is well aware of the dark side of this circle, and it is difficult to say whether someone will fall into trouble when he encounters certain difficulties.

Regardless of whether it is now or in the future, Ryan knows that he cannot change the rules of the game in this circle, and he has no intention of changing anything. He only wants to protect his relatives and friends. When the rules fail, he will definitely need something different. means……

Especially he and Natalie, now they have the advantage of being a minor. Even if some people want to make some ideas, they have to think about it, but what about them after the age of sixteen?

The premise of all this is money. If he and Nicole have billions or even billions of net worth, many problems will not be a problem.

Of course, Ryan has the memory of his previous life, and naturally knows where the bottom line of certain things is, and will not touch it, otherwise he will play himself in prison like that Italian, then it will be sad...
