Taking advantage of the time before the premiere of "When Happiness Comes Knocks", Ronan specially participated in the copyright transfer and signing of "Old Boy", and specially chatted with the president of Xiudong Film and invited the other party to visit the Relativity Entertainment Group after the Cannes Film Festival, so that the two parties can cooperate more in the film field.

South Korea is an important overseas market in Hollywood. Although Embassy Film has branches in South Korea and has independent distribution capabilities, it is not harmful to have a good relationship with local snakes.

In addition, Xiudong Film has many copyrights for the film, which are the resources Netflix needs.

The people of Xiudong Film also wanted to explore the North American market. Seeing that Ronan was enthusiastic, he immediately responded.

Leaving the signing hotel meeting room, Ronan said to Connie who was following behind: "Notify Robert Eiger and Mark Randolph and tell them to try to take time to meet with the people from Xiudong Film."

Connie responded.

Ronan walked out of the hotel, got into the car, took out the DVD of "Old Boy" given by the president of Xiudong Film, and started to read it briefly.

This is a DVD made by Koreans. The appearance and packaging are not much better than the DVD customized by Relativity Entertainment, but the production cost is nearly 3 times higher.

The cost advantage of DVD has brought great profits to Relativity Entertainment in the past few years.

Ronan put down DVD. "Old Boy" is essentially not much different from "Infernal Affairs" and other things in the North American market. The box office in theaters will definitely not be high. It would be good if it could have $500,000. The real profit point is still the offline market, especially Netflix.

There are also many Koreans in North America.

Another one is a remake.

Ronan remembers that Hollywood remakes "Old Boy", but he doesn't know the specific business data.

Because of Thanos vs. Scarlet Witch, Ronan remembers the remake of the movie, Thanos and O'My sister are the male and female protagonists respectively.

If you want to know how good the female star, the slightly fat actress, is, you will know when you go to the remake of "Old Boy".

Ronan remembers that after Aometre became famous for her role as Wanda, she said in an interview that the Scarlet Witch's dress in the comics was too exposed and she couldn't accept it.

Some netizens immediately joked that beautiful women cheat people and are not shy about filming "Old Boy"...

Even the reason why Ronan knew about the Korean version of "Old Boy" was because he was attracted by Thanos vs. Scarlet Witch. After watching the American version, he realized that there was a Korean version.

The specific plot of the Korean version is not very clear, but the American version still has memories: Thanos slept with the Scarlet Witch and finally found out that the Scarlet Witch was his daughter...

By the way, there are also braised eggs among the actors.

Perhaps it is a suitable opportunity to wait until the Avengers plan reaches a certain level before performing a remake? Thanos, S.H.I.E.D., and Scarlet Witch, the revenge story that has to be told between the three.

The copyright of "Old Boy" is temporarily under control. Relativity Entertainment is now acquiring various adapted copyrights by Robert Lee, most of which will not be put into operation immediately, but are more preparing for the future.

Original commercial films in Hollywood will become increasingly difficult, and adapted films will completely occupy the mainstream.

Not only commercial movies, but also award-winning movies.

"When Happiness Comes Knocks on the Door" is a typical example. The gimmick adapted from real people and stories can attract the attention of the media and audience.

Due to Will Smith's existence, the premiere of "When Happiness Comes Knocks" at the Cannes Film Festival is highly anticipated. Regardless of the scale and attention, it is incomparable to the previous "Dongyang Misty". After all, this is the Western world.

On the day of the premiere, not only did the judges of this film festival come to the scene, but even members of the Cannes official board of directors stepped on the red carpet.

As producers, Shahai Entertainment and publishers, Embassy Pictures, their respective heads, George Clint and Garcia Rodriguez, also came to Cannes from Los Angeles, and as hosts, welcomed many guests to attend the premiere.

The Cannes Film Festival is the beginning of a series of award-winning programs for "When Happiness Comes Knocking the Door", with the focus on next year's Oscars.

Of course, the Oscars that are most valued in Hollywood movies.

Moreover, when it comes to business effects, Oscars can drive more benefits.

Ronan walked into Lumiere's hall again, but did not get into the crowd, because he was entangled by a sudden appearance.

This is a middle-aged fat man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, with a beard all over his face, and he looks very artistic.

"Hello, Mr. Anderson." The middle-aged fat man smiled and his eyes turned into a line: "Can you talk to you alone?"

He quickly introduced himself: "My name is Michael Moore, I am a director and also from Hollywood."

Ronan once met Michael Moore at the Oscars and naturally recognized who he was.

"What's the matter with me?" Ronan already had some guesses.

Sure enough, Michael Moore said as expected: "I filmed and produced a documentary and am currently participating in the film festival competition unit. I wonder if you are interested?"

When he heard Michael Moore talk about the release of the movie with Ronan, Connie and Finch took the initiative to stand on the periphery and politely stopped the person who came over to say hello.

Ronan said: "It's that "Fahrenheit 911"? Director Moore hasn't found a publisher yet?"

Michael Moore smiled embarrassedly: "Not found yet."

Before coming to Cannes, he had sold this documentary in North America, including six major companies and DreamWorks, but because of the sensitivity of the content, it also involved a huge political force, and no one was willing to pay too much for it.

When he arrived in Cannes, Michael Moore did not interrupt the efforts of seeking publishers for the film. It is easy to say outside North America. Many overseas publishers are very interested in the conspiracy theories in the film, but the content of this film takes place in North America, and the largest market and audience is also in North America. If you cannot log in to North American theaters, it will have no meaning.

Quentin Tarantino, who also came from Hollywood, recommended Ronan and Embassy Films to Michael Moore after watching this documentary.

Michael Moore has never had any dealings with Ronan before, but has heard about him. He is young, promising and well-established movie distribution channels. He is one of the most famous people in Hollywood. He is trustworthy and has a strong commitment and is full of enterprising beliefs.

Because he didn't understand, Michael Moore could only analyze the information he heard and felt that Ronan seemed to be a very good choice.

Young people never lack enthusiasm, and being enterprising is enough to show this.

Being credible and committed is likely to dislike the dirty and dark side of some people.

As long as I feel a little uncomfortable with Fahrenheit 911, there must be a market for him.

Michael Moore is a director or the kind who is dedicated to studying the dark side of politics and society. He focuses all his energy on his own work, and ignores some other situations.

"I originally wanted to call you before you." Michael Moore knew he was a little abrupt and explained simply: "But I couldn't find your contact information, so I had to come here."

Ronan seemed generous, smiled, and said, "It doesn't matter." His words were filled with a hint of rejection: "Thanks to Director Moore for supporting "When Happiness Comes Knocking the Door."

This is very clear. Apart from "When Happiness Comes Knocking the Door", don't talk about other topics.

But Michael Moore is a somewhat stubborn director who didn't understand Ronan's meaning at all and said, "Mr. Anderson, don't you know you're interested in Fahrenheit 911?"

"I haven't seen it." Luo Nan frowned slightly: "It's hard to comment."

Michael Moore quickly said: "This is a documentary that reveals the truth of 911. I have conducted a detailed investigation and found that it is not that the family and the light-pull family have a close relationship. 911 is not an occasional **...

He talked endlessly, and it was basically the tone of conspiracy theories.

Ronan raised his hand to interrupt Michael Moore, but he didn't expect Michael Moore to turn a blind eye to his actions: "They deceived the whole United States and the whole world! As a responsible person, we must reveal their conspiracy and true face to the world!"

He looked at Ronan and shouted: "The public has the right to know! They have the right to know the truth of the matter! They have the right to see the true faces of those bastards! Mr. Anderson, as film artists, we also have the responsibility to reveal the truth of the incident to the world!"

Is the truth in "Fahrenheit 911"? A considerable part of the plot is definitely true, and Michael Moore has indeed put in the effort.

But if you want to say it's all true...

People in the world are not fools either.

Ronan feels that to some extent, this documentary is like "Currency War" that was once popular across the Pacific. Many things are real, but they are mixed with the views of too many creators.

In the future, some people will definitely regard Fahrenheit 911 as the truth as they believe in "Currency War" as historical materials.

As for the truth, Ronan was not interested.

"Sorry, Director Moore." Ronan said calmly at Michael Moore, who was trapped in self-fanity: "I'm not a movie artist."

Michael Moore couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and he didn't expect Ronan to say this at all.

Ronan's refusal is already clear, Michael Moore has the responsibility to reveal the truth, he does not.

Let's leave this hornet's nest to others to stab.

Ronan has also recalled the plot of "Fatus 911" these days, and combined with his current understanding, he has also gained some understanding.

The distribution company of "Fatus 911" was Lionsgate. After "Fatus 911" was released, it caused a huge sensation. Then Michael Moore encountered various troubles. Not only did Lionsgate not suffer much negative impact, it later developed into the so-called seventh largest company in Hollywood.

This film is so politically sensitive, why is Lionsgate not hit? The publisher has received much less blame than the producer.

On the other hand, Lionsgate Pictures is very powerful in politics, at least far better than the current Relativity Entertainment.

Frank Gusta, the founder of Lionsgate, is a staunch Democratic supporter and is close friends with Zipperton. He has provided a lot of support in many Democratic activities.
