In the office of Shahai Entertainment, Ronan received Semir from the Los Angeles Council of the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority who visited.

"Mr. Anderson, I've just been transferred to Los Angeles from Abu Dhabi."

This Arab man was wearing a suit and ties and spoke English as fluently as Saleh: "Minister Mansour asked me to say hello to you."

Ronan didn't know what this guy was coming, but his face was full of a warm smile: "Thank you." He said politely: "When the movie project in his hand is completed, I will definitely go to Abu Dhabi again and thank the minister in person."

The two of them made some polite words, and Semir turned to the topic: "The minister is very concerned about your two new projects. Is it going smoothly?"

Ronan was secretly alert, but said casually: "Everything went well. One of the films will be released in November, and the other will be released in early December."

While speaking, Ronan was also thinking, what is Semir here to do? If the Abu Dhabi Investment Bureau wants to mix the crew's affairs at this time, it will be quite troublesome.

This is not after the project is completed, large amounts of funds are circulating between projects, and there are inevitably loopholes in the accounting.

Seimir has not been in Los Angeles since Abu Dhabi, and has been carrying Mansour’s special mission.

The Abu Dhabi Investment Bureau contacted the acquisition of Hollywood companies several times, but none of them succeeded. Medium and large companies had already been divided up, and small companies were meaningless to buy.

The last gaze can only fall on the old acquaintance Ronan Anderson's Sand Sea Entertainment.

Of course, it is still in the waiting and inspect stage. According to the ideas of the senior management of the Investment Bureau, after Ronan Anderson's company expands a little and the operating conditions stabilize, then take the acquisition.

Semir turned to ask, "I heard you bought a distribution company some time ago?"

"A very small distribution company." Ronan sighed intentionally: "The Human Purge Plan has suffered repeated setbacks in finding a large company controlled by Jewish forces. It is more difficult to find a publisher in the film "Ace Agent". In order to avoid encountering the situation in the Human Purge Plan again, I decided to establish my own distribution channel."

Seimir praised: "Mr. Anderson has plans, ideas, and execution ability, and is worthy of being a business elite."

After coming here, I learned that distribution channels are very important to the film industry. Ronan Anderson established distribution channels. If the movies can be successfully released, Shahai Entertainment will have higher value.

Ronan couldn't understand the real purpose of this guy, so he could only say: "It's over-reputable, just to have fair distribution channels for the movies we work with."

"There are production companies and distribution companies." Seimir said with a smile: "Shahai Entertainment will definitely have broad development prospects in the future."

Ronan could tell that this person's topic was always around the film company.

Does Abu Dhabi have any ideas about its own company?

He said a little heavy: "In Hollywood, it is not easy for small companies to develop, and they may attract suppression from large companies at any time."

Semir glanced at Ronan and said meaningfully: "Mr. Anderson needs to win more support from his friends."

As soon as these words came out, Luo Nan suddenly remembered the people from the investment bureau who came to the door during the "Human Purge Plan". He instantly understood the person's intentions.

"Of course." He followed the other party's words: "Without Abu Dhabi's support, there would be no Sand Sea Entertainment now."

Let’s just fool some things first. Several projects are in operation, so don’t cause any trouble.

Semir looked at the time and said, "I will not disturb you later and contact you often."

Ronan shook hands with him and said goodbye: "Welcome often."

Say Semir away and return to the office. Ronan sat behind the computer and fell into thinking.

Last time, Saleh, the leader, told him that Mansour was preparing to acquire a large and medium-sized film company in Hollywood, but unfortunately the acquisition was very unsuccessful and he had not found a suitable goal. Then those people came here to talk about the UAE copyright issue of the "Human Purge Plan".

Ronan breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly felt that he underestimated Mansour.

The chief supported him and Shahai Entertainment, and there was a purpose behind it. If the inference was correct, was this a game of killing fat sheep?

Fatten the sheep and then kill them.

And Sand Sea Entertainment is that sheep.

Even, it is only a spare sheep.

Ronan speculated that the acquisition of other companies by Abu Dhabi Investment Bureau was very unsuccessful, and then his attention turned to Shahai Entertainment.

After all, they are familiar with Shahai Entertainment, and the boss of his company has a good relationship with Abu Dhabi, and is still an "old friend of Abu Dhabi."

If it were acquired, Abu Dhabi would definitely not treat him unfairly in terms of money.

But sell the company...

Unless they are willing to buy shell companies.

Luo Nan calculated that this is operational?

No matter what, he wouldn't tie himself to the Arabs.

This incident also attracted the attention of Ronan. In addition to the French director last time, Ronan raised the danger coefficient in Abu Dhabi by another level.

He was telling him everything that the Abu Dhabi line should be temporarily put on.

…………

Entering April, Jessica Filton completed the re-cut of "The Witch Blair".

"You finished reading?"

Jessica Felton washed off her head in the rest room next to her, returned to the editing room and said to Ronan: "The director's shooting materials are limited, except for those clearly flawed shots, the rest are basically used."

Luo Nan just read it once and said, "One hundred minutes is too long."

Jessica Felton wrapped her hair, pulled her chair and sat next to her, saying, "I haven't had any fine cuts."

"The length of the film is controlled to more than seventy minutes, and the maximum length should not exceed eighty minutes." Ronan rubbed his eyes: "The camera sways too much, and the audience cannot bear it after a long time."

By then, frequent large-scale exits will occur early, which is not conducive to the promotion of the film.

Jessica Felton nodded: "Yes, the audience has the limit to endure." She asked, "What about other places?"

Ronan turned on the player and pointed to the screen and said, "The film starts to add a subtitle, which means that the film of this film was taken from a lost camera in the forest, which means that the story of the film is real."

He coughed and said, "The content of the initial interview will be streamlined. The third person will be removed directly, and the performance traces will be too heavy."

Daniel McLeak hired the cheapest extras to act as residents of the town, and there were many people with poor acting skills, so the interview seemed a bit fake.

"Look at this one." Ronan continued to play the screen: "The second half of the line design deviates from the theme, cut it off, try to be more natural."

Jessica Felton took out a notebook and kept recording it on it.

As an editor, she is very aware that the final choice is not in her hands.

In most cases, editors are often the embodiment of the producer's will.

Ronan said again: "The rhythm is a little bit tighter, and all the shots hesitant next to the witch's hut before the end were cut off. Also, when the camera lens fell down, the middle part was removed and the other person faced the wall was directly connected. In the opening interview, a villager mentioned that the witch didn't like the person she wanted to kill staring at her, so he always let the victim face the corner."

Jessica Felton nodded: "Okay, no problem."

Ronan thought for a while and said, "Like the grass man on the tree and the screams at night, these are all used reasonably, so we expect these to create a terrifying atmosphere."

"That's all?" Jessica Felton asked with his head raised.

Ronan nodded: "That's all for the time being. I'll tell you what I think of later."

No matter how much this film is written, it will not become a good movie. Good shooting skills do not necessarily mean that there are good movies. Therefore, some classic movies will last forever, not because it sets a precedent.

If it is not good-looking, it is not good-looking. If it is not scary, it is not scary. It has nothing to do with the era it is from.

Seeing Jessica Felton sitting in front of the workbench and spread the two groups habitually on the countertop, Ronan gently tapped the table and said, "Let's have an afternoon off. Let's go, Jesse, I'll treat you to lunch."

Jessica Felton shook her head very firmly: "Forget it if you eat. After eating, I looked at these shots, and I was so shaking that I wanted to vomit."
Chapter completed!
