Chapter 839 Golden Lion Award

Hearing these words, Ronan's gaze returned to the script. Things related to Diana have always been very attractive.

Andy Harris is still promoting: "Peter Morgan and I have mastered a lot of little-known inside stories during the preparation of the script, but I swore with him that these will not be made public. Therefore, the film's The purpose is not to challenge anyone."

Ronan said: "There's a lot of biography about the royal family and that thing, some of which wouldn't fit in a movie."

"This is by no means a satirical film aimed at the royal family." Andy Harris assured: "The script clearly reflects that in the design of me and Pete Morgan, the film is not immoral and libelous."

He organized the language a little bit: "The story of Diana and the queen attracted me because the young princess challenged the authority of the monarchy with a long history, and when she died, the royal family remained surprisingly silent. At first, the royal family No one in the group knew how to react, but they quickly showed grief. However, all this makes people wonder whether this emotion is real or not? Is this emotion the same as that of the public?"

Ronan didn't make a decision, because his relationship with William had always been good, and that had to be considered.

But the nature of the businessman made him unwilling to give up when faced with such a film project with great value in the future.

Ronan still thought about Andy Harris's plan, and asked, "For such a movie, we must be careful."

Andy Harris said: "The Queen has dedicated her life to this country and she is not to be blamed. The only thing that is really to blame is the public's and our desire to dictate things that we don't even understand."

He further emphasized: "The theme of the film is actually the battle between the old and the new world. This is a story about the end of tradition. Creating a film about the Queen is like making a film about your own mother. In Britain, the Queen is really The symbol of the mother of the country, so I do not want, nor can there be any bias and indiscretion, and all prejudice and negative influence must be removed."

Ronan closed the script and asked the key point: "Have you made a budget?"

Andy Harris said: "It may require an investment of more than 20 million U.S. dollars." This is also what he is worried about, and he quickly said: "As long as the themes of Diana and the royal family are filmed, it will definitely not be a problem to recover the investment."

Ronan is also very clear about this.

As story material, Diana's death affords so much room for creativity: a horrific car crash chased by relentless paparazzi; a celebrity's untimely death; a controversial love affair that died prematurely; The media that bears a major responsibility for the cause of death have been condemned and so on.

Since the car accident in 1997, countless people have been distributing Diana's death.

Ronan nodded slowly, and said, "Well, Mr. Harris, I'll accept your script first, and I'll have to think about the specifics of the project. Yes, leave your contact information to me."

Andy Harris hurriedly sent a business card, still adding weight to himself: "Ms. Helen Mirren, I have agreed to play the role of the Queen." For possible future negotiations, he said: "Harvey from Miramax -Mr. Weinstein is also very interested in this project."

Harvey Weinstein? Ronan frowned slightly.

This fat man suddenly appeared in London, is it for the Andy Harris project?

Ronan wasn't too worried about Harvey Weinstein. If it was a competition, Weinstein, who couldn't even control Milan Max, wouldn't have any competitiveness in front of Relativity Entertainment.

Helen Mirren's words are a plus.

I remember this movie was starring Helen Mirren.

And this actress is very topical, and it is easier to attract attention than ordinary British actors.

Helen Mirren is even known as a symbol of sexy England.

No matter when she was young or now she is old, Helen Mirren never cared about being naked in movies, even on a huge scale.

For example, Helen Mirren once starred in the famous "Roman Empire Erotic History".

She has performed nude on screen several times and doesn't mind being seen naked.

Now even though he is nearly sixty years old, he is still fully exposed on the screen.

There was a serious photo leak incident in Hollywood, and there was a lot of trouble. Helen Mirren, the Oscar-winning actress, said half-jokingly in an interview with the media: "My mobile phone was not hacked, and I feel humiliated."

It can be said that this is a female star who has quite a personality, is also quite good at creating, and dares to create topics and debates.

Ronan didn't express anything in particular to Andy Harris' words, shook hands with Andy Harris, and took Anne Hathaway back to the room directly.

In the suite, Anne Hathaway kicked off her high heels, took off Ronan's coat, hung it on the hanger, and asked, "This project..."

Ronan smiled: "There is room for market operation, but it is also prone to controversy."

Anne Hathaway said: "Are you still afraid of controversy?"

"I don't care about controversy." Ronan sat on the sofa and said: "I have a good relationship with William. When the acquisition of Manchester United, William helped a lot. From William's point of view, I definitely don't want to see such a film. Come out, continue to consume Diana and the royal family."

Anne Hathaway thought for a while, and said, "If it were me, I wouldn't like to see a movie frequently make fuss about my family."

Ronan said: "As long as such a film works well, it will benefit a lot in the short term, but for the long-term development..."

Having said that, he shook his head.

Today's British royal family is precarious because of the relationship between the Blair government, but just like the FA showed when Ronan and the Abu Dhabi consortium competed for Manchester United, no one can ignore the influence of the Windsor family.

"Then..." Anne Hathaway asked, "Abandon this project?"

Ronan said, "I'll think about it before I talk."

Anne Hathaway came over and sat next to Ronan: "Okay, don't think about these annoying things, I'm leaving London tomorrow, let's hurry up and do something happy, I have a new program for tonight."

"Oh?" Ronan became interested.

Anne Hathaway returned to the room and brought back a pair of exquisite cat ears: "I bought these at the adult supply store when you were doing work. It is said that Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston When I come to London, I always go to that store to buy handcuffs..."

That night, Anne Hathaway fully interpreted what is meant by "Catwoman will never be a slave, unless she has food and shelter".

Early the next morning, Ronan had someone send Anne Hathaway to the airport. Anne Hathaway was going back to Venice to attend the closing ceremony and awards ceremony of the film festival.

"Brokeback Mountain" directed by Ang Lee was well received at this Venice Film Festival, coupled with the promotion of Embassy Pictures, "Brokeback Mountain" has become the most popular candidate for the Golden Lion Award.

Ronan took time to go to the hospital in the morning to visit the injured Robben.

In terms of logistical support, the Manchester United Club has always done a good job. After Ronan entered the club, he repeatedly emphasized the importance of players' health.

Robben has already done an MRI, and the injured part is quite troublesome, the meniscus of his right leg.

This is an area that professional athletes often injure and is extremely difficult to heal.

Even, many players' careers are ruined by meniscus injuries.

"Aryang, you are an indispensable member of Manchester United."

In the ward, Ronan said to Robben on the bed: "I have already contacted the world's top experts."

Robben said in a bit of half-baked English: "Thank you, I will be back."

Ronan shook hands with him and said, "All of us will be waiting for your return."

Without disturbing Robben's rest too much, Ronan only stayed for about ten minutes before leaving Robben's ward.

Robben's injury is a big loss for Manchester United, but Manchester United will not be unavailable, and Iniesta can also play this position.

As for Leo Messi, when Ronan communicated with Ferguson, the old Scottish man made it clear that Messi still needs time to adapt to the Premier League.

And he is too young, playing too many professional games is also a kind of injury.

Ferguson also saw Messi's talent, and he will give him playing time one after another, but he also stated to Ronan that it will mainly focus on unimportant events such as the League Cup and the FA Cup.

When a football club reaches the level of Manchester United, it is inevitable that there will be huge performance pressure. Young players must be cautious in using them.

Compared with Chelsea's Mourinho, Ferguson has done a good job in cultivating young players.

Messi also needs to prove himself to Manchester United, and also needs to use time to realize his talent.

Coming to Manchester from La Masia Film and Television Academy, he has changed to a new growth environment. No one can guarantee Messi's future achievements.

That afternoon, Ronan's commercial plane directly sent Robben to Berlin, Germany, where a top sports physiotherapy team in the world was waiting for Robben in Berlin.

Ronan also hoped that when Robben came back, he would still be that Peter Pan.

But he also knows that if Robben doesn't change his style of play, there will be more injuries like this in the future.

After Manchester United defeated Chelsea, they ranked first in the standings and have been leading since the beginning of the season.

In the evening, good news came from Venice. At the closing ceremony and awards ceremony of the Venice Film Festival, Ang Lee and "Brokeback Mountain" became the biggest winners, winning the Golden Lion Award in one fell swoop!

Although there are no other awards to worry about, a Golden Lion Award has fully achieved the purpose of this trip.

This will also be the beginning of "Brokeback Mountain" and Ang Lee's impact on next year's Oscars.

The crew of "Brokeback Mountain" is non-stop. After participating in the Venice Film Festival, they will immediately rush to Canada to attend the Toronto Film Festival.

After all, North America is the final battlefield.

Ronan did not leave the UK for the time being, but made an appointment with Harvey Weinstein for an interview.
