"I didn't expect to meet you here." David Ellison was of extraordinary origin, but he seemed quite polite to face a person comparable to his father: "You are the ultimate goal of many of our classmates."

Harvey Weinstein asked curiously: "David, Ronan, do you know each other?"

Of course, Ronan knew David Ellison, but that was because of his relationship, and it was the first time he met him.

David Ellison said: "I met Ronan several times at the USC Film Academy event. By the way, I studied at USC Film Academy before."

He smiled and said to Ronan, "We are alumni."

When Ronan heard this, he nodded to David Ellison: "We at the USC Film Academy, we have another heavyweight member in Hollywood."

David Ellison quickly said, "I am just a latecomer. I need to learn more from you and George Lucas." He said seriously, "Ronan, you are my idol, so I also dropped out of school and joined Hollywood."

"I had no choice but to do that," Ronan responded and said, "I didn't expect you to invest in Harvey's new company."

David Ellison smiled: "At a Jewish party, I met Harvey and then reached an investment intention."

Harvey Weinstein interrupted: "David is ready to make a move in the film industry."

David Ellison said: "We have to rely on two more support."

Ronan said: "David, you're so kind. In Hollywood, the USC Film Academy is a family."

Alumni are a relationship that cannot be ignored. Even in the fiercely competitive Hollywood, David Ellison is willing to communicate more with Ronan, an alumnus.

When Harvey Weinstein left due to reception, David Ellison said to Ronan: "In fact, in addition to Weinstein Pictures, I have also confirmed two important investments."

Ronan said: "Funding is an important condition for gaining a foothold in this circle."

David Ellison was deeply touched: "Since I dropped out of school and entered Hollywood, I have been rejected, and they are only interested in my money."

"There is no way," said Ronan. "Any circle is xenophobic."

David Ellison didn't have to hide in front of Ronan, a richer person than him, and said naturally: "Fortunately, I can use my money to make a way out."

Luo Nan asked, "Let's talk about the other two investments?"

David Ellison replied: "I invested in a movie about airplanes. I'm very interested in air combat movies, but there are very few air combat movies in Hollywood."

He then said, "In addition to Weinstein Pictures, I also invested in a film company."

Luo Nan was interested and asked curiously: "Which company?"

David Ellison said: "Some small and medium-sized investment institutions and financial firms on Wall Street, led by Ryan Kavanaugh, set up a film production company. I also invested some of the funds."

Ronan said: "I've heard about them. In fact, my men have also contacted them before."

This was the former Relativity Entertainment Film Company, but now it can only be changed. Because it involves his plan and the company name, Ronan lets his subordinates contact Ryan Kavanaugh when he first heard someone mention it.

Although I had not talked to Ryan Kavanaugh in person, the two sides also established a basic connection.

According to Ronan's understanding, Ryan Kavanaugh is a mathematical genius. He came from a wealthy Jewish businessman family. He established his own hedge fund company at the age of 21 and fought in the two thousand years of Internet stock market waves.

However, the development of the story is not the success of a super genius.

Ryan Kavanaugh made a wrong judgment on the situation. Before he could survive until the 9/11 incident in 2001, his fund was finished.

But a good family made Ryan Kavanaugh come back soon.

Ryan Kavanaugh found that Wall Street Finance, which is rich in cash and is looking for non-traditional investment opportunities, was just in the mood to get involved in Hollywood.

This made Ryan Kavanaugh, who was good at socializing, raise a large amount of money from many institutions on Wall Street, set up a company called Maple Leaf Pictures, and bought the Trig Street Production Company, a film company established by Kevin Spacey.

David Ellison said: "This company, now has funds, but no channels, no movie projects."

Ronan asked tentatively: "I heard people say that Ryan Kavanaugh has raised billions of dollars on Wall Street?"

With the alumni as well as Ronan's attitude and position have always been good, David Ellison didn't think too much about it, and it wasn't too secretive. He said: "Ryan Kavanaugh has a ten-year plan and plans to raise a total of $12 billion from Wall Street."

He smiled: "Of course, this is a long-term plan. Now he doesn't have that much money, but he still has more than one billion dollars in funds."

Ronan has roughly speculation, and with David Ellison, it is estimated that Maple Leaf Pictures is likely to mobilize $2 billion.

No wonder the former Relativity Entertainment opened the way with money and quickly opened up the situation in Hollywood.

Funds of this size can do too much.

Hollywood also needs foreign capital to maintain high investments.

However, the former relativity entertainment ended in bankruptcy and did not shake the traditional forces of Hollywood.

Ronan said: "Don't worry, David, you can open up the situation if you have money."

David Ellison said: "It can only be done step by step. Before I entered Hollywood, I thought I could invest in six major companies, but after I came in, I realized it was too difficult."

Luo Nan smiled: "The six major companies have not always been so strong, they can always find opportunities."

David Ellison said: "Hopefully there will be a chance."

He is very smart and does not mention any topic of investment relativity entertainment.

He has studied before that Relativity Entertainment does not easily accept foreign investment.

David Ellison felt that instead of asking such a request that Ronan would not accept, it would be better to use his relationship with Ronan to find and wait for other opportunities.

The two talked about film for a while, and the identity of alumni of the University of Southern California Film Academy seemed to be able to bring the distance closer.

Bob Weinstein came to greet Ronan, who took Connie to another place.

David Ellison watched Ronan leave, and his young face showed a smile that was quite similar to his mad father.

Alumni? This relationship may become a stepping stone for him to penetrate into Hollywood as soon as possible!

Originally, David Ellison didn't think of coming to attend the premiere, but after hearing that the boss of Relativity Entertainment might have participated, he immediately changed his mind.

The education he received since childhood told him that if he wants to succeed, he must take advantage of all the conditions around him that he can use.

When the time was almost the same, Ronan walked towards the cinema and saw that there was no one around. He said to Connie who was following him: "Continue to collect information about Maple Leaf Pictures and Ryan Kavanaugh."

Connie whispered, “Yes.”

Ronan continued: "I will meet him once in public for Chacharion Kavanaugh's itinerary."

"Okay." Connie said: "After Maple Leaf Pictures was founded, Ryan Kavanaugh was very high-profile in Los Angeles and was always looking for opportunities to invest and cooperate."

Ronan nodded slightly: "I understand." He reminded again: "And also pay special attention to David Ellison's updates."

The appearance of David Ellison was an unexpected factor, but it was not a bad thing.

Connie whispered: "David Ellison has also been very high-profile lately."

Ronan said again: "The relevant information and information of these two must also be fed back to Robert Eiger in time."

"Okay." Connie responded.

The situation in Hollywood has never been static. There are no mistakes in the direction of the general trend, and it is inevitable that some new changes will occur.

How to take advantage of changes in the situation is also an important condition for achieving the goal.

After entering the theater, Ronan had no intention of watching the premiere of "Sin City", and almost always considered things related to David Ellison and Maple Leaf Pictures.

These Hollywood outsiders have money in their pockets.

More than ten or two billion US dollars, that is, through Wall Street financing, no Hollywood film company can provide such a huge amount of liquidity in a short period of time.

The former Relativity Films wanted to spend money on a future.

The result can basically be said to be a failure.

The money stayed in Hollywood, and Relativity Pictures ended in bankruptcy.

However, that Relativity Film lasted for more than ten years before it went bankrupt.

"City of Sin" has achieved remarkable results, especially its reputation has been very popular, with the media and film critics applauding, and the audience's reputation is also good.

Facts have proved that Frank Miller's comic-style images can be accepted by the film market and bring certain commercial value.

The film's $28.1 million box office at the weekend of the North American painting was not very impressive, but it is also known as the most impressive one.

After all, the production cost of the film is only US$40 million.

"City of Sin" was launched and aired to the North American box office champion, which also made the Weinstein brothers who officially left Disney breathe a sigh of relief.

Everything seems to have a good start.

However, the trend of "Sin City" is not very stable, and it lost the box office champion in the second week.

The spoof comedy film "Death is gone" produced by Shahai Entertainment and released by Embassy Pictures officially landed in North American theaters. With the huge influence brought by the "Death is here" trilogy and the successful imitation of the "Shocking" series, "Death is here" performed quite well after its release.

When the God of Death can't kill anyone he wants to kill, the audience left behind not only laughter, but also money.

Three days after the painting weekend, this large-scale comedy with the theme of "Death is Coming" won $32.18 million.
