In contrast, the company has a simple composition and has little assets except for movies that have been produced or purchased.

How many shares can I buy?

Ronan asked tentatively: "Steven, there is always a general number, otherwise I will reach an agreement with you rashly and will not be able to explain to the company's management and employees."

Katsenberg looked at Spielberg. In fact, after he got angry with the board of directors, DreamWorks had reached an agreement.

Spielberg knew very well that he could not make promises at this time, otherwise how to fulfill the contract when signing the contract? How to negotiate during negotiations? He pondered for a moment and said, "The maximum amount will not exceed 5% of the shares. If the amount is not enough, DreamWorks can pay in cash."

Luo Nan gave up instantly. What DreamWorks wants is overseas distribution channels, not finding a new boss for himself.

Fantasy is fantasy after all.

"Of course, this is just a preliminary plan." Spielberg added: "We can talk about it slowly."

Ronan pondered for a while and decided to be more straightforward. This kind of thing cannot be delayed, and there is no need to fool Spielberg. The old man is still quite powerful in Hollywood.

"Sorry, Steven." Ronan did not apologize: "I think it's best to develop DreamWorks and Relativity Entertainment separately."

If you really want to be acquired, the six major companies are more suitable than DreamWorks.

Katsenberg wanted to speak, but Spielberg raised his hand to stop him and said, "Ronan, think about how many years does DreamWorks and Relativity Entertainment need to develop? And with your current momentum, it won't take long to attract the attention of the six major companies. Do you want to become a subsidiary like Miramax that is constantly consuming internal means to compete for the right to speak?"

Ronan did not speak, but was thinking, of course not thinking about how to be acquired by DreamWorks, but whether he could cooperate with DreamWorks?

DreamWorks are still very valuable today.

Spielberg had no idea what Ronan was thinking, so he denied that he would close the door and let go of his short hand.

"What conditions do you have, can you raise?" Spielberg said.

Ronan knew that DreamWorks would not give up easily, so he simply stated his conditions: "DreamWorks' controlling rights and decision-making power."

"What?" countless gullies instantly cracked on Kasenberg's smooth forehead.

Even Spielberg, who is knowledgeable, was frightened. What is the condition? Ants swallow elephants?

Spielberg and Katsenberg looked at each other and had the same idea. They underestimated the young man's ambitions too much.

This is where DreamWorks acquires Relativity Entertainment, it is clearly that Relativity Entertainment acquires DreamWorks!

What a joke!

Although DreamWorks has encountered many difficulties and has not established an overseas distribution network so far, it is not comparable to small companies like Relative Entertainment.

Ronan saw Spielberg and Carsonberg look ugly and added in time: "This kind of condition is unfair to DreamWorks, so I didn't say it at the beginning." He smiled and said, "Steven, let's forget about the acquisition."

When Spielberg heard Ronan's words, his face looked a little better, but he was not very happy. At his level, he was rarely rejected.

As a businessman, he was also thinking quickly. Is there any way to reduce the conditions of Ronan?

Spielberg thought for a long time, but couldn't find a good solution for a while. Relativity Entertainment's equity is in Ronan's hands, and the means of dispersing equity are useless.

Unless Ronan agrees.

Ronan's words did not stop: "Steven, we don't need to acquire them. DreamWorks can completely cooperate with Relativity Entertainment."

Carsonberg immediately looked up at Ronan. The man had just rejected DreamWorks' kindness and turned around to discuss cooperation with DreamWorks. He thought that the man who had been living in Hollywood for more than 20 years was thick-skinned enough, but he didn't expect that this young man was thicker.

How did you practice this at a young age?

Now, Spielberg didn't know where he was. Even though he attached great importance to Ronan, he still underestimated him.

"Cooperate?" He asked with a slightly calm face, "How to cooperate?"

Ronan began to try to pull the conversation to his rhythm: "As far as I know, the movies produced by DreamWorks, whether they are live-action movies or animated feature films, have never had a fixed overseas publisher. You have worked with Universal Pictures, Paramount Pictures, Warner Bros. and Twentieth Century Fox. If you change overseas publishers so frequently, I guess the distribution conditions they offer are not very good, right?"

Spielberg did not answer, and this question was obvious and there was no need to answer at all.

Ronan doesn't need Spielberg to answer, saying: "Why doesn't DreamWorks find a stable overseas distributor? Embassy Pictures has established an overseas distribution network and has successfully released the film "Human Clearance Plan 2". If DreamWorks needs it, Embassy Pictures is willing to provide overseas distribution services to DreamWorks."

There is no need to think about North American distribution. DreamWorks itself has North American distribution capabilities.

"It's released overseas." Spielberg seemed to have some thoughts.

The position between the two parties suddenly changed, and Ronan said again: "Steven, Relativity Entertainment has just been established, and it is not on the same level as DreamWorks, nor is there a competitive relationship like you have with the six major companies. I don't know what the conditions are for you to publish films overseas for you, but I guess it will not be easy. Embassy Pictures does not have the huge scale of the six major companies, and the distribution cost itself is low. If you cooperate with Embassy Pictures, you can get more profits from overseas."

Since Ronan said the so-called conditions, Spielberg knew it was difficult to acquire Relativity Entertainment as expected. Now there are very few companies in Hollywood that can release videos on a large scale overseas. Otherwise, DreamWorks would not accept the more stringent distribution conditions of the six major companies, and some videos can only sell overseas copyrights to the six major companies for distribution.

"Do you have the ability to issue offline?" The person who asked was Kasenberg.

Offline distribution of animation feature films is more important than online distribution.

"Of course." Ronan was very confident: "On the basis of the former Polykin Pictures, we have further strengthened the overseas distribution network, not only cooperated with overseas theater companies and agency companies, but also established close cooperative relationships with TV stations, dealers and derivatives manufacturing and selling parties."

He gave an example: "The masks worn by the main characters in the Human Purge Plan have been sold in twenty-five countries, and sales exceeded 500,000 pieces during Halloween."

"I will think seriously." Spielberg made Ronan's head a little confused and took the initiative to end the meeting: "Ronan, let's be here today, let's keep in touch."

Ronan stood up and shook hands with Spielberg, and turned his back: "I really hope to work with DreamWorks. Especially Steven's movie, I'm a loyal fan who grew up watching "ET Alien."
