Chapter 727: Infinite Future

That night, the Ritz-Carlton Hotel was brightly lit, media reporters gathered, and countless big-name celebrities walked into the main entrance of the hotel from the camera.

But more people have already entered the hotel.

Ronan, Mary, Robert Iger, George Clint, Robert Lee, Garcia Rodriguez and Mark Randolph stood at the entrance of the banquet hall to welcome the guests.

No matter what happened in the past, at least the people who came here tonight are all guests.

Among the four major investment banks on Wall Street, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley both sent representatives, and more people from small and medium-sized companies showed up early.

Among the mobile phone manufacturers, the prince of Samsung Group, the CEO of Sony Ericsson, the operating president of Motorola, and the CEO of Nokia's US branch also came here one after another.

Apple, which is preparing to enter the mobile phone industry, although Steve Jobs did not come, he sent Tim Cook as a representative.

The mobile phone giants are all here, and Qualcomm will naturally not be absent.

In Hollywood, the CEOs of the six major companies have accepted the invitation, and companies such as DreamWorks and Lionsgate have also come.

The number of companies in more related industries is too numerous to count.

Compared with these business giants, Hollywood stars are just a small group that is not very conspicuous.

The reception started on time. After Ronan's speech, he immediately became the focus of the banquet hall.

Since he is in the business district, such business communication and entertainment are unavoidable. Even if there is no vulgarity such as desperately persuading people to drink, or looking down on me if you don’t drink, you still have to raise a glass with others from time to time. In less than half an hour, Ronan also drank a lot.

Jessica Felton saw Ronan toast with someone again, beckoned to the waiter, and whispered a few words.

The waiter left and brought a glass of water a few minutes later.

Mark Randolph found Ronan together with representatives of several major mobile phone manufacturers and Qualcomm.

"I just heard from Mark that the business of the Netflix network all came from the design of Mr. Anderson." Lee Jae-yong said with a smile: "It's a very good idea, and we can expect the future of Netflix."

When it comes to professionalism, Ronan is far inferior to the professionals in front of him, but he knows more about some things: "Everyone, I always believe that the future of mobile phones lies in intelligence and the combination with the Internet. As long as we Together to promote, the biggest terminal of the Internet in the future must be a mobile phone.”

A Qualcomm representative answered: "I believe that."

Mark Randolph said: "After Netflix began to promote it on the mobile terminal, in just three weeks, the number of global users has increased by nearly 3 million."

Everyone present has a certain vision, and it is not difficult to analyze that Netflix's model and the alliance promoted are very likely to represent the future.

Only representatives of Nokia have been silent. They are also optimistic about Netflix, but they have reservations about the alliance formed by Netflix.

However, other companies are very positive because they can see excellent development prospects from it.

If such a business alliance is to be formed, the participants must be able to see future profits.

After a toast and a glass of wine, Mark Randolph and these people went elsewhere, they rarely get together, and there are more topics to discuss.

After more than half a year of hard work, several parties also have the most basic cooperation intention.

But they won't come to an agreement easily, because Netflix has big prospects, and only prospects.

This is bound to be a long, marathon-like negotiation.

No one can guarantee whether anyone will be left behind during the period.

Tim Cook came over at this time, looked at the mobile phone manufacturers who had gone away, and said, "Ronan, don't forget that you are the major shareholder of Apple."

Ronan shrugged slightly: "Tim, can I be the major shareholder?"

In the past few years, most of his personal income and company dividends have been invested in Apple, and part of it has been invested in Amazon.

In August of this year, after Google was officially listed, Ronan also invested a small amount of funds in Google's stock.

But the amount of investment is not large.

Android has been taken by Netflix, and Ronan has made people keep an eye on the Internet video business. As long as YouTube appears, Netflix will have countermeasures.

All of these will have an impact on Google's future.

Of course, Google will still be an Internet giant. After all, last year Google's operating income reached nearly 300 million US dollars.

Tim Cook laughed at this moment, and said: "A total of 2.75% of the shares, Ronan, you are already a member of the group with the largest shareholding among all individual shareholders of Apple. "

Ronan shrugged slightly: "If anyone wants to sell shares to cash out, or Apple wants to raise funds to expand its shares, Tim, you must notify me."

"It's a smart decision." Tim Cook said: "Apple's future is unlimited."

Ronan added: "Is Apple's first-generation smartphone set to go on sale?"

Opposite is Apple's shareholders. Apple's management has announced the relevant news at the general meeting of shareholders. Tim Cook said directly: "It will take two years."

Ronan nodded gently: "In two years, with Netflix's development speed, it may become the next Google. Doesn't Apple consider fully cooperating with Netflix?"

"We are considering this matter." Tim Cook said very seriously: "The board of directors formally discussed whether it is necessary for Apple to invest in Netflix if Netflix goes public."

Ronan smiled: "Welcome Apple's investment."

In fact, Apple is also very short of money now. Even if it can invest, if Netflix goes public next year, it is impossible for Apple to buy too many stocks.

Tim Cook specially asked for a glass of wine and drank with Ronan: "I wish us a happy future cooperation."

"Happy cooperation." Ronan also raised his glass.

After Tim Cook left, Ronan was finally quiet for a while, but the smell of alcohol rose a little, and his stomach felt uncomfortable.

Jessica Felton walked over quietly.

"Drink a glass of water." Jessica Felton handed over the water glass: "Light salt water, can hangover."

Ronan took it, and he was not polite, and took a sip slowly. The warm water fell into the solitude, bringing a sense of warmth and suppressing the wine.

Jessica Felton glanced at him: "Is it better?"

"Thank you." Ronan took another sip and said, "It's much better."

Jessica Felton said casually: "My mother used to give it to my father, and it is said to work well."

Ronan laughed: "The effect is really good." He drank up the water in the glass: "Jesse, you still care about me."

Jessica Felton said indifferently: "The main reason is that I have nothing to do. I basically don't know your business partners. Those actors are all like peacocks. I'm not interested either. I happened to see you."

Ronan asked, "Isn't Lindsay here?"

He knew that Jessica Felton was closer to Lindsay Beal at Relativity Entertainment.

"David Fincher is going crazy because of that movie project." Jessica Felton said simply: "I took Lindsay to New York to meet her classmate, and I guess I won't be back for Christmas."

Ronan nodded: "These great directors all have a crazy side."

Jessica Felton reminded: "Someone is coming."

Ronan also saw it. Gisele Bundchen and another model came over. It was a very familiar face, and she was also a super celebrity in the fashion circle. Angela Lindwald, dubbed by many media as the old fox .

At the same time, this is still his old lover.

"Good evening, Gisele." Of course Ronan would not be embarrassed, first greeted Gisele Bundchen, and then shook hands with Angela Lindwald: "Long time no see, Angie."

Looking at Ronan and the beautiful woman with a hot figure beside him, Angela Lindelwald felt a little complicated, but she quickly adjusted, after all, the past is long gone.

"Good evening, Ronan." Angela Lindelwald's eyes turned to Jessica Felton.

Gisele Bundchen was the first to say hello: "Good evening, Jesse. Introducing, this is Angela Lindwall, my friend. Angie, this is Jessica Felton, producer of the Pirates of the Caribbean series." Filmmaker."

Angela Lindwall and Jessica Felton greeted each other and chatted a few words.

"When did you come to Los Angeles?" Ronan asked Angela Lindwald.

"It's been a while." Angela Lindelwald's fox eyes turned back to Ronan: "I don't have your contact information anymore."

This was a pun, of course Ronan understood it, and he didn't bother, saying, "If you have anything to do, you can come to the Theory of Relativity Building to find me."

"I will." Angela Lindelwald saw that Ronan did not express anything, and no longer had any illusions.

When a model reaches her stage, the range of choices is actually very wide, and there is no need to hang on to a certain person.

There are many intersections between the entertainment industry and the fashion industry, and the people here are all experienced practitioners. Even Jessica Felton is used to all kinds of turmoil in the industry.

Ronan didn't linger on Angela Lindwall, and instead asked, "Giselle, how did the dollar see Leo?"

Gisele Bundchen said with a smile: "Leo met Mr. Clint. He was talking about movies with Mr. Clint, so he didn't come to bother you."

Ronan asked: "I heard that you and Leo will have a wedding next year?" The news has already spread in the circle: "The time has been confirmed..."

He didn't finish his sentence, because Jessica Felton next to him quietly pulled off his sleeve.

Gisele Bundchen said vaguely: "The time has not been confirmed yet. If it is confirmed, we will notify you."

Ronan nodded slightly. Although Jessica Felton next to him didn't say anything, he could guess that the two of them probably had new rumors.

Mark Randolph came over with several people at this time, Ronan saw faces from Wall Street and said, "Sorry, Angie, Giselle, some friends are here."

"We won't bother you." Angela Lindwall took the initiative to leave, and left here with Gisele Bundchen.
