After hiding at his former home and lingering for several days, Ryan and Nicole gradually returned to their normal relationship, but compared to the past, Nicole's attitude towards him has obviously changed a bit, and on the surface, it is much more severe.

Although Nicole knew that with the current status of the two, this severity might not be effective, she wanted to fully show her attitude in this way.

Ryan also knew that if it weren't for the Disney incident, Nicole might not have given up, and certain things would naturally not be mentioned in front of her.

After leaving Los Angeles and going to Harvard, he came to New York and reached an unanimous suggestion with the senior management of Marvel Comics on the next shooting.

Afterwards, I went to Blue Sky Studio and briefly checked the progress of "Ice Age 2".

Although "Ice Age 1" is not as popular as "Monster Electric Power Company", it has won more than 200 million US dollars in North America. Moreover, as the publisher, Twentieth Century Fox has fully represented various peripheral sales of the cartoon, which has brought gratifying revenue.

No matter from any perspective, it is imperative to make a sequel to this animated feature film.

After a series of agreements reached, 20th Century Fox became the second largest shareholder of Blue Sky Studios. News Group wanted to take over the animation studio to make up for Fox Pictures' biggest shortcomings.

This is also the reason why they fully supported Ryan some time ago.

Ryan knew very well that he directly controlled Pixar through Disney and was the largest shareholder of Blue Sky Studio and DreamWorks Animation Studio. DreamWorks Animation is still not well-known now. After "Shrek Monster" is released, this situation will inevitably not continue.

Benefit sharing is always the theme in this circle.

Of course, if News Group wants to become the largest shareholder of Blue Sky Studio, it must come up with conditions that will make him tempted enough.

"In my opinion, you can turn all the way behind the scenes."

This is the cocktail party that Rupert Murdoch convened in his mansion. The media tycoon looked at Ryan, who is no less valuable than him. "There is no need to continue to star in the movies with your current status."

"Everyone has a hobby." Ryan's eyes turned back from the luxurious decoration of the banquet hall. He raised his glasses to the Murdochs and his wife, "Rupert, don't you think it's very interesting to create classic characters and participate in classic movies?"

"No matter how many, whether it is the director or the producer, who can treat Ryan as an ordinary actor?"

The person who spoke was a middle-aged blonde man. He walked over with a blond woman taller than Nicole and took the initiative to reach out to Ryan, "Hello, Ryan, I am Donald Trump."

"Hello, Donald." Ryan shook his hand and said politely, "I'm glad to know you."

"Ryan, I heard..." Donald Trump greeted the Murdoch and his wife and turned back. His target was obviously Ryan, "I heard that you just sold your villa on Long Island not long ago."

"Yes, it can be considered a small profit." Ryan replied casually.

Because Natalie was sure to settle in Los Angeles after graduating from Harvard. And he had a long-term private room at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, he fell in love with the vacation villa he had bought before, and simply resold it to the old Jewish man.

"Don't you want to own a property in New York?" Donald Trump said after a few words in his unique tone, "Trump Building has the best and most valuable apartment in New York. Are you interested? Maybe you can go and take a look tomorrow."

Of course Ryan has heard of Trump Tower. The former New York real estate tycoon in front of him was a smart man. Not long after he got rid of the bankruptcy crisis, he began to find ways to win back his wealth.

However, he had no interest in being someone else's life sign.

"I can only say sorry." Ryan declined without hesitation, "I will contact you if I need it in the future."

"The.Trump.Building" located at 40 Wall Street is indeed very famous, but this reputation comes more from Donald Trump's continuous self-promotion in the upper class and media. Although Trump claims that its value is 400 million US dollars, several professional institutions only estimate it to be 90 million US dollars.

It seems that I remember this popular TV host, Ryan frowned slightly, but unfortunately, he knows very little about reality shows like American TV series.

"I heard you bought a football club?"

The Murdoch and his wife went to greet other guests, and Donald Trump spoke again, "I also intend to invest in the Premier League."

"Oh..." Ryan laughed, "Manchester has another Premier League team, Donald, why don't you buy it, let's be neighbors?"

This young woman who obviously didn't know the Premier League, who was holding him should be his daughter, muttered a few words in his ear, and Donald Trump said, "That club is too small to match my goal."

"That's how it is."

It seems that the real estate tycoon is not like he is joking. Ryan can't help pinching his chin and said, "There is a club in London called Chelsea. I heard that there is capital from Russia and I'm very interested in it."

"Russian?" Donald Trump, the nouveau riche in the American media, said disdainfully, "a group of nouveau riche who can only rely on resources to make money."

With a graceful shrugging, Ryan was about to say goodbye, "Donald, if you are interested, you can contact Wall Street Trusts, they are good players in this regard."

This company is the company that assisted Ryan in acquiring the Wall Street investment company that Manchester United had.

Although this guy has just recovered and is not considered the top rich man in North America, it should not be difficult to play with a Premier League club. As for the rich man in Russia, let's not care about his affairs, although the guy seems to really love football.

Although many New York tycoons came to this cocktail party, most of them came from media-related industries. Ryan, the new Disney holding party, was naturally the focus of attention.

Just now walking away from the famous father and daughter of the previous life, Ryan quickly surrounded him.

Among these people are executives from Time Warner and News Corp, as well as well as famous producers and film company owners such as the Weinstein brothers.

"A huge market with a population of 1.2 billion has opened its arms to Hollywood." Speaking was a executive director of Time Warner. "The bilateral agreement was signed, and it was a major victory for the film industry."

"Don't forget, the box office over there is not even one-tenth of that in North America." Someone poured cold water on it.

"The market needs to be cultivated, and both "Titanic" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" have achieved success there."

"And the number of screens and box offices over there are both showing a straight upward trend." More and more people are participating in the discussion.

"In this regard, we have to admire Ryan's vision." Gerald, who is in charge of Warner Bros., spoke. "Paramount Pictures and Jenkins Pictures are the most successful companies in opening up the Chinese market."

"I heard that Disney is negotiating the latest amusement park project with Shanghai?" Another person also looked envious.

Ryan had to raise his cup to everyone, "This is a Hollywood victory, we should celebrate it."

Everyone raised their glasses together with a smile.

Although Hollywood is fierce internal competition, it can always be closely linked to the interests of the entire entertainment industry.

Major groups, including Walt Disney, have put a lot of pressure on the federal government. The "Memorandum of Understanding on Solving WTO Movies Related Issues" signed in Los Angeles not long ago has changed a lot compared to the previous life.

After fierce bargaining, the two sides reached a series of agreements about the movie.

The most obvious thing is that the proportion of Hollywood films' accounts increased from 13% to 20%, and the amount of ordinary accounts increased from ten to twenty.

In addition, the other party will also introduce special account sharing films and some videos that buy out overseas screening copyrights based on specific circumstances.

Even though there has not been much progress in combating piracy, protecting peripheral copyrights and increasing distribution, such an agreement has also increased Hollywood's determination to further explore the world's largest market.

Since the acquisition of Jenkins Pictures, Disney Pictures' branch in Far East has merged with Jenkins Pictures' office to concentrate on opening up this new market. The films produced by Disney are undoubtedly relatively easy to pass the review.

Over the years, Jenkins Film's office has also made many connections, which will eventually help introduce its own movies.

Especially superhero movies, this is the type that can summon wind and rain there.

Unfortunately, it is too expensive to create a deformed robot with current CG technology, otherwise one after another of the Autobots vs. Decepticons can be started.

Well... China-US relations have undergone a lot of changes after 9/11. We can find several Chinese actors to play supporting roles that are not very important.

For the box office and to sell peripheral products, Optimus Prime and Megatron were destined to fall in love and fight each other for the rest of their lives.

With this idea, Ryan joined the crew of "X-Men 2" after filming the outdoor scene and returned to Los Angeles together. The remaining scenes will be completed in the studio, including scenes of Wolverine and Captain America fighting side by side in the Easter Egg.

Because "Captain America" ​​is still in preparation, only a few actors have been identified. This is just a scene of two people fighting, and it is not difficult to shoot.

As for the Roaring Commando, it is still under formation. According to Ryan's suggestion, the image of several members will be highlighted, such as black people, as well as Asians, Latinos, Slavics, and the British who are actually noisy on the surface.

In the words of the other side, uniting all the forces that can be united is one of the loudest slogans shouted by mainstream media now.

"Captain America" ​​is a standard main theme film. When it is moved to this time, it will naturally conform to the characteristics of the current era.
Chapter completed!
