After confirming that Fontaine was a competitor who was going to rush to grab the money, Ronan stopped being half-hearted.
"Director Fontaine, you said that you are an Arab brother and one of the Arabs. Don't you feel ashamed?" He hurriedly rebuked: "Blurry the suffering and sorrow of compatriots and sell them in order to satisfy the Western world's ugliness of Arabs. Desire to create the subject, is there an Arab brother like you?"
Saleh stared at Fontaine, his eyes were full of anger, this man's mind was too mean!
Mansour's eyes looked at Fontaine also quite bad.
"You talk nonsense!" Fang Dan retorted.
Ronan did not entangle with him at all, and said to himself: "It is his responsibility to demonize his compatriots, and let the West regard his compatriots as inferior nations. Directors like you are a heinous group that should be eliminated!"
He turned to Mansour and said: "Mr. Minister, as long as there are such inner ghosts here to destroy the image of Arabs, it is difficult for the whole world to have a correct understanding of Arabs."
Mansour first nodded slightly to Ronan, then looked to Fang Dan, his eyes sharpened instantly.
If this "Life in Arabia" does appear in the three major film festivals, will it harm the image of Abu Dhabi? Will it cause harm to your future career?
Fontaine distinguished: "Mr. Minister, this is slander! This is..."
"Enough, don't say any more!" Mansour interrupted Fontaine directly and asked Saleh next to him, "What do you think."
Saleh immediately got closer and said in a voice that the two of them could hear: "Mr. Anderson's words are very reasonable. When I was in Los Angeles, I also heard that some people made films that slandered their compatriots to please Westerners. Mr. Anderson and Our friendship has stood the test of time and a film project, and is worthy of trust. This Frenchman...has the possibility of bad intentions."
He thought for a while, and then said: "I think this Frenchman is concealing evil intentions. At the critical moment of his brother's promotion, it is not worth taking such a risk."
Mansour certainly has his own judgment. Ronan Anderson may not be all right, but there are some truths.
Ronan felt that someone pulled himself a bit, turned his head to look, Robert quietly gave a thumb.
Just like the first time investing in Shahai Entertainment, Mansour is not a hesitant person. He immediately made a decision and said to the thin man behind him: "You go to book a ticket and send Mr. Fang Dan to leave the country as quickly as possible. ."
Fontaine looked at Mansour in shock: "Mr. Minister..."
Mansour raised his hand to stop him from speaking, "That's it!"
The thin boy went over immediately and asked Fang Dan to leave the meeting room. When he left the door of the meeting room, the two bodyguards followed and wanted to accompany Fang Dan to take his luggage to the airport.
In the meeting room, Mansour's face looked much better.
"Thank you for your reminder, Mr. Anderson." He forced a smile: "Otherwise I will make a mistake."
Ronan humbled: "I just did what I should do."
One party to the meeting has been invited away. Mansour did not intend to continue, and said directly: "I will urge the Investment Bureau to speed up the approval process for the investment of "Ace Agent". The funds have been raised to 20 million US dollars. Even if it is me, there are some procedures. It must also be left."
Ronan is very patient: "Don't worry."
Mansour left the meeting room first, Saleh came over and said to Ronan, "I was really worried just now."
Ronan smiled: "That person has bad intentions, as long as he studies and understands the external evaluation mechanism of Western films, it is not difficult to find out."
Saleh said with emotion: "Fortunately there are professionals like you."
Ronan invited: "I will invite you at noon?"
Saleh shook his head: "I can't go, there is entertainment, I can't push it away."
After a few words, he quickly left the meeting room, Ronan and Robert returned directly to the Chief Hotel.
"It's dangerous this time." Robert let out a breath.
Ronan nodded, "I will change the target next time."
"Well, don't wait for someone to collapse and replace it." Robert sighed with emotion: "Fortunately, you responded in time."
Without Ronan’s accurate and fatal counterattack, it is hard to say that Shahai Entertainment can continue to cooperate with the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority.
Ronan took a glass of water and said before drinking, "If we can get this 25 million US dollars investment, our follow-up plan will be much smoother."
Robert planted a flag: "I hope there are no accidents."
Fortunately, the erection of the flag didn’t work, and everything went quite smoothly. Only one day later, the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority approved the investment plan of "Ace Agent", and the next day he formally signed a contract with Ronan, who represents Shahai Entertainment. , 25 million US dollars investment was in place on the same day.
In some ways, Abu Dhabi's credit is pretty good today.
People with credibility must cooperate with those with high credibility, so Ronan feels that it is normal to reach cooperation.
So far, this trip to Abu Dhabi, "Reaper is Coming" raised Abu Dhabi private funds of 15 million US dollars, and "Ace Agent" invested 25 million US dollars by the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority.
Forty million U.S. dollars is hugely funded, giving people a feeling that I have in the world.
The trip to Abu Dhabi is over. Ronan bid farewell to the "Arab brothers" and prepares to leave the UAE.
"The money is coming too fast."
In the VIP room of the airport, George Clint, who came to Abu Dhabi for the first time, had not calmed his excitement, and made a random suggestion: "Should we shoot movies casually, and then all over the world looking for investment?"
Mary glanced at him: "You think too much."
Robert said with a smile, "I thought about it the same way when I came last time."
"You can look for investment, but you can't make movies casually." Ronan said at this time: "Successful films are the basis for us to raise funds. Without the success of the upper part of the "Human Investment Project", this time we can successfully raise investment?"
George sighed, nodded and said, "Ronan, you are still the most awake."
Ronan added: "The company's growth is the foundation. If we don't have a company of sufficient scale to support it, we might become the lowest-level liar."
"Yes! Yes!" Robert echoed: "We are now called pull investment, there is no real company or project, that is a liar."
Ronan changed the topic and confessed his work: "Mary, you go back to deal with funding and accounting issues Death is here" 20 million dollars budget, "Ace Agent" 10 million dollars budget, the remaining 10 million dollars, Excluding the reward sharing of the four of us, I will find a way to turn the rest into the legitimate income of Shahai Entertainment."
He looked at the other two people: "George, Robert, you go back and immediately start to set up the "Ace Agent" crew, prepare the corresponding materials, I will keep in touch with you, and help me spread it to Berlin as soon as possible. James Wong has almost prepared the materials for "Coming," you can just go find him."
Then, Ronan solemnly said: "The most critical task is to have initial contact with Embassy Pictures, especially major shareholders."
"Okay." The two responded.
Ronan finally said: "If everything goes well for this trip to Germany, I will be able to return to Los Angeles after the New Year and communicate in time if I have something."
Leaving Abu Dhabi, Mary, George and Robert returned directly to Los Angeles, while Ronan flew directly to Berlin, Germany.
This time I went to Berlin. On the one hand, I had an appointment with the relative of the old Mrs. Anderson, Helen Koch, and on the other hand, it was also for the two projects of "Reaper Is Coming" and "Ace Agent".
When he arrived in Berlin, Ronan did not go directly to the Aunt Helen. Instead, he went to a law firm that often cooperates with Hollywood to find a Mueller lawyer who professionally handles related business and consult specific laws and regulations.
Although he has studied many cases in Los Angeles, he still needs the assistance of professionals for specific implementation.
This law firm itself acts like an intermediary agent. Ronan needs them to help contact the German film company.
After careful discussion with Mueller's lawyer, Ronan rushed to West Berlin, preparing to meet Helen Koch.
