Chapter 211 The Second Cooperation

In the pulling room of Warner Studios, Rakesh Ross Khan and Nick Ross Khan sat on the sofa in the dark, staring at the small screen opposite, which was showing the first Hollywood film they invested in and produced. Movie!

Even though the film is only a 30-minute clip, the eyes of the uncle and nephew are still firmly attached.

Especially the young Nick Ross Khan, who prefers action movies.

On the small screen, a wonderful car chase scene is being staged.

It was an old mini cooper, very unremarkable, except for the messy interior and the paint that was starting to fade, the headlights were patched and the tires were not fully inflated.

And it is such a simple to somewhat tattered "classic car", on the streets of Paris and the Paris police, there was an absolutely thrilling but no exaggeration car chase scene.

Nick Ross Khan's hands unconsciously clenched into fists.

In the palms and feet of the seemingly inconspicuous, but actually eye-catching actor, this old-fashioned cooper seems to be "waking up from a dream".

Whether it is on a narrow sidewalk, or in reverse traffic, or directly rushing down a steeply angled building, this old-looking cooper is nothing to worry about.

And in this kind of real car chase scene, there is no absolutely gorgeous car crash performance in the "Brave to Kill the Island" that he has seen, and it is replaced by the collision and rollover after the car that is closer to life cannot be braked in an emergency on the ground.

At this moment, Nick Roshan found that even without those fancy crash scenes, when the actor drove the Austin mini cooper into the underground parking lot and stopped, his hanging heart could land safely .

The picture on the screen suddenly disappeared, and the lights in the drawing room came on. Nick Rosshan realized this and turned to look at Ronan next to him: "Is there any more? That's all?"

Clearly, he hasn't seen enough.

Ronan smiled apologetically, and said, "At present, only these are edited."

Nick Rosshan patted his leg lightly: "It's a pity that I can't watch it all at once."

Ronan smiled and warned: "The production of this film has not yet been completed, and it is currently in the stage of absolute secrecy. I hope that the two of you will not disclose to anyone what you watched today, so as not to spoil the release."

Nick Rosshan said quickly: "Don't worry, Ronan. Don't forget, we are also investors."

Ronan said: "Go to my office and wait for a while, I will deal with the work here first, and I will be there in a while."

"OK."

Nick Ross Khan and Rakesh Ross Khan followed a crew member to the producer's office.

Ronan asked people to pack up the copy, sent someone to send it to the vault, and asked someone to prepare relevant materials for "Underworld".

In another office, after the crew left, there were only two people left, Nick Ross Khan and Rakesh Ross Khan.

"Young people are the main force in the film market, and old guys like me can't keep up with the trend." Rakesh-Roshan asked: "Nick, what do you think of this film?"

Nick Rosshan said with certainty: "It was very well done! Uncle,

Do you know how I feel after watching it? Can't help but want to see the rest and can't wait! "

Knowing that his nephew is not the kind of exaggerated person, Rakesh Roshan nodded and said, "Is this a masterpiece?"

Nick Rosshan nodded: "I think the possibility of this film's success is too great, and it may even cause a sensation like a famous spy film like James Bond or Ethan Hunt."

"This Ronan Anderson is extraordinary." Rakesh Ross Khan said in a low voice, "It's no wonder he has achieved consecutive successes."

Nick Rosshan said at this time: "Uncle, Shahai Entertainment has an excellent reputation, and the quality of the films we shoot is guaranteed. Since we want to continue investing in Hollywood, the project of Ronan Anderson and Sandhai Entertainment is good. s Choice."

Rakesh Ross Khan said: "Let's look at the project recommended by Ronan Anderson first."

The two waited for a while, and Ronan came to the office with his assistant Connie.

"I think this is a wonderful spy film no less than "Crisis of Tomorrow" and "Mission: Impossible." Nick Rosshan was not stingy with compliments: "Ronan, you did a great job."

Ronan was also not humble, saying: "This is the result of the hard work of the crew and the entire Shahai Entertainment."

The three of them talked about "The Bourne Shadow", and Rakesh Roshan directly switched to the new project and asked, "Ronan, last month you called and said that there was a new project that needed investment, and the Mountain Foundation happened to be in Mumbai has just closed a new financing, let’s talk about new projects.”

The film has been filmed and produced, and the quality seems to be good enough, and the feedback from all aspects is all good news. Unlike Ronan who had to find a way to attract investment for the first time in cooperation, Rakesh-Ros Khan is about to become I want to invest in you Movie!

This is the effect of successful cooperation.

Ronan chose this time to invite Roshan's uncle and nephew to Los Angeles, and he was also waiting for Paul Greengrass to complete the post-production of the part of the screening.

"Let's take a look." Ronan waved to Connie, and waited for Connie to hand over the materials in her hands to Roshan's uncle and nephew, and said, "Here are the scripts, proposals and some concept drawings."

The first thing Nick Roshan saw was the concept artwork, and he was inexplicably amazed when he saw the first one.

Although the human face on the concept map is blurred, the black skinny leather suit outlines the

She has a graceful figure, but it gives people a feeling that she is so cool that she has no friends.

At this time, Ronan briefly introduced: "The story of this project roughly tells that there is a dark and unknown underground world outside of human beings, where two hostile races are active: the aristocratic, mysterious and elusive vampires. , and the werewolves who are ferocious and savage, they have fought for centuries in order to gain the right to survive and rule the underground world."

"To human beings, they are nothing more than legends of ghosts and ghosts in the streets and alleys, but in fact, the fierce confrontation between the two sides has never stopped. They have been fighting continuously throughout their lives, vowing that one side will not let it go..."

Ronan roughly explained the plot of the story in the most concise language.

After the story is finished, just like what Ronan saw before, any reasonable person will not be so excited by a story that he has no friends, let alone have some inexplicable violent emotions because of the script.

To put it bluntly, the plots of today's Hollywood commercial movies are very clichéd.

Most of the best-selling commercial movies, if you just look at the storyline, it will even give people a bad feeling.

"Werewolves and vampires?" Rakesh Roshan didn't know much about these things.

Nick Rosshan studied in the United States and worked in Los Angeles. He has more exposure to Western culture. At this time, he asked: "Ronan, as far as I know, there are many movies about werewolves and vampires in Hollywood. , In the past two years, this theme has been a bit rampant, and many films have not been well received by the market."

It's normal for investors to have some doubts, Ronan didn't care, and said with a smile: "This is not the traditional theme of werewolves and vampires."

Both Nick Ross Khan and Rakesh Ross Khan put down the documents in their hands and looked towards Ronan.

Ronan did not take it for granted that the Mountain Foundation must cooperate for the second time just because the two parties have cooperated once. He still took a 100% serious attitude and said: "Since the birth of the movie, vampires and werewolves have been enduring in Hollywood movies. The popular theme of "Underworld" is going to dig deeper. In order to compete for the domination of the hidden world in the city, the war between vampires and werewolves has lasted for a century. We hope to create a world where vampires and werewolves coexist based on science. world."

He seemed very confident: "We are going to abandon mysticism and base it on science, so we created a virus that is the cause of vampires and werewolves. We can explain everything related to it according to genetic logic." .If genetic variation or blood type changes over time create vampires, then you can find a way to kill vampires, and you can also find out why silver affects this blood type. It can be said that our vampires and werewolves are more reasonable."

Nick Roshan asked, "So it's a new vampire and werewolf story?"

"It can be said like this." Ronan thought for a while, and then said: "To be precise, this is a Romeo and Juliet story constructed between werewolves and vampires. The pattern of Romeo and Juliet has lasted for hundreds of years. However, the story core of many Hollywood blockbuster films today is still Romeo and Juliet.”

Nick Roshan is not the kind of complete layman, nodded and said: "Actually, many Bollywood films are like this."

Ronan continued: "For this project, we plan to invite Len Wiseman, a student of the great director Roland Emmerich, as the director."

"Roland Emmerich, who directed 'Independence Day' and 'Godzilla'?" asked Nick Rosshan.

"Yes." Ronan said: "Len Wiseman is his most important student and assistant. We have reached a preliminary agreement with Len Wiseman. As for the heroine, we intend to choose two candidates, one is Oscar The winner is Angelina Jolie, and the other is the British rose Kate Beckinsale."

Nick Ross Khan glanced at his uncle Rakesh Ross Khan and asked, "How much is the planned investment for this project?"

Ronan did not make a false report, saying: "20 million US dollars." He further said: "The Firefighters Fund under Allianz is still invited to act as a third-party completion guarantee."

Speaking of this, the only doubts that Roshan's nephew had had basically dissipated.

Rakesh Roshan said: "Ronan, we can't stay in Los Angeles for too long, you arrange this investment negotiation as soon as possible."

"No problem." Ronan said with a smile.
