Chapter 10: Game of chess

Let the Arabs be the protagonists?

Ronan instantly began to become cautious,

Is Mansour testing him? Or Does he have this idea?

No matter what, he must give a reasonable explanation.

Ronan tentatively asked, "Do you want to improve the image of Arabs through Hollywood movies?"

"Hollywood movies are spread too wide and have a greater influence, but they are too unfriendly to Arabs," Mansour said slowly.

"Last year I visited Paris and New York.

There were many people in those two places protesting publicly, saying that we are terrorists, Even the media ridiculed us."

Ronan sighed lightly, and said, "They were all misled by someone through various means"

Mansour continued saying, "His Excellency was very annoyed by that issue. The UAE is an enlightened country and has the responsibility to improve the image of the Arab world towards the rest of the world"

Ronan slowly nodded and asked, "So you want Arabs to be the Main characters and have a positive look in Hollywood movies?"

Mansour asked, "Jews can, why can't Arabs?"

As soon as he said this, Ronan immediately understood that Mansour was not testing him, but he truly had this idea.

But in Hollywood movies, Jews can be the protagonists but Arabs can only be villains.

If it was simply for cheating money, Ronan could have agreed without hesitation, but he wants to complete the "Human Removal Project" as the starting point for his career.

Therefore, Arabs cannot be the protagonist.

Faced with a person of Mansour's level, he can't make random promises.

Ronan thought a little bit, and said, "It's not appropriate at this stage."

He quickly explained, "The distribution channels of Hollywood films are controlled by the Jewish people.

Such a film cannot enter the market at all, the audience cannot see it, and its influence is impossible to spread out."

Mansour frowned slightly as if considering Ronan's words.

Ronan's brain worked quickly.

From the conversation with Mansour, he analyzed the needs of the UAE tyrants, and it is not difficult to conclude: Mansour is eager to create a name for himself.

This is an actual negotiation.

He should not dispel Mansour's excessive demands but at the same time has to take advantage of his eagerness to seek fame.

Negotiations are like playing chess.

A good negotiator will plan every bid and counter-offer and will make a decision before making his move.

He should let the other party feel that their proposal was outrageous and embarrassing, and then try to make the other party accept the proposal without making a counteroffer.

Therefore, Ronan added, "Hollywood is deeply influenced by Jewish forces and cannot be changed overnight.

If it is too aggressive, it will inevitably lead to counterattacks.

Such a film cannot be made for the public and it would be meaningless to make it.

After all, it is not filmed for ourselves.

I think it is necessary to open a gap first, and then slowly penetrate from that point to the surface, and we need to formulate a long-term plan."

Mansour is not a mindless person, and said, "It seems.... to make sense."

At this moment, Ronan turned into an Arab fighter, "How many years did it take for the Jews to reverse their image?

They started doing this at the outbreak of World War II,

They used the sympathy caused by the Holocaust and used the funds in their hands to make many big moves,

For decades, they persisted in operating, Infiltration, and propaganda which led to the current situation."

Mansour slowly said, "Abu Dhabi is not short of money."

Ronan then said: "But you lack the support, lack of reputation and influence, and even lack a feasible plan."

Mansour couldn't help but think of the fragmented Arab world,

Many royal family members were eating and waiting to die,

And for the first time, he truly recognized Ronan, he couldn't help but ask, "Do you have any good suggestions?"

"I don't know much about politics." Ronan is still humble and honest,

"But I do have some ideas about culture and sports."

Mansour said quickly, "Please speak."

Ronan's brain has been running at high speed, combining information from his previous life, He said,

"Films and television are the most influential entertainment industry in the world.

It brings people not only laughter but also subtly changes the views ​​of the audience.

You can develop in Hollywood by slowly gathering your power and formulating a long-term and effective plan to change the image of Arabs in the film and television industry

You can even cooperate with others to create a new industrial chain model to break the Jewish monopoly on traditional models."

Even Ronan himself believed his bullshit, This is the highest state of deception

"Are there any more?" Mansour asked eagerly.

"In today's world, outside of the films and television industry, the influence of professional sports cannot be ignored."

Ronan told the path that Mansour had walked in his previous life, "If you want to expand your national influence, you can buy NFL or MLB teams.

You can build a championship team to enter the mainstream American class."

He paused, and then said, "If you want to expand your influence in Europe, you can acquire the top teams in the five major leagues.

Football is the world's largest sport today, with an audience of millions of people. When you win the league or win a Champions League, countless people will look at you with reverence"

As soon as he said this, Mansour's eyes brightened.

He was originally a sports enthusiast.

He liked football and was good at equestrianism, but he never thought about managing a football club.

What does a champion team need most- Money!

Those who are rich may not be able to win the championship. But those who win the championship must be rich.

The thing that Abu Dhabi does not lack is money.

Mansour's two followers, one fat and one thin looked at each other, and both saw surprise in each other's eyes.

This is simply tailor-made for Mansour, why didn't they expect it?

Mansour repeatedly nodded, thinking while saying, "This is a good suggestion, I can consider it."

Ronan smiled humbly, "I'm just giving suggestions, as long as it helps you."

Mansour finally said something quite agreeable, "I have benefited a lot, and your suggestion opened a new door for me."

Ronan asked at the right moment, "My movie...?"

"You are a professional," Mansour said immediately, and then asked, "How much is the project funding gap?"

Ronan said directly, "The project budget is 10 million dollars, and many people at the fundraising meeting are interested in investing,

But it is difficult to say how much investment can be obtained in the end. I estimate that the funding gap is about 8 million U.S. dollars."

　　Mansour thought a little and said, "I will seriously consider your project and hope we can reach a cooperation."

"I hope to have this honor," Ronan replied.

Ronan knows very well that Mansour is still investigating this project, and the oil tycoons are not fools who just use the money to hit people.

However, judging from Mansour's words, the chance of getting a sum of money from him is still quite high.

Mansour seemed to take him seriously and personally sent Ronan outside the meeting room.

Just as Ronan was about to leave, an Arab hurried over and said something to Mansour's thin entourage in Arabic.

Ronan faintly heard a pronunciation similar to Los Angeles, did not stop, and then left along the corridor, before turning into the elevator,

He looked back to see that the Mansour and his followers returned to the conference room.

"Los Angeles?"

Ronan whispered to himself, 'Shouldn't it be the guy whom Mansour sent to Los Angeles to investigate Sand Sea Entertainment?'

According to Mansour, he had been to the venue on the first day of the fundraising meeting.

After reading the information, he might have asked someone to collect relevant information in Los Angeles.

Anyway, tens of millions of dollars is a big investment.

No wonder the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority has not discussed specific investment matters with him.

Now that I think about it, the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority has done a lot of work.

On the one hand, it assisted Sand Sea Entertainment to show the friendly and enthusiastic side of Arabs to Hollywood guests,

On the other hand, it does an actual investigation before deciding whether to invest or nor

Even if Sand Sea Entertainment raises funds from other people, as long as he does not leave Abu Dhabi, the situation would be under the control of the Investment Bureau.

With these conjectures, it must be false to say that he was not worried at all,

But Ronan is still quite confident.

At the beginning of the project planning, he never underestimated the Arabs, and all operations are real.

Except for the very subjective views on Jews, all the information he gave was true and credible.

The elevator arrived, Ronan took the elevator downstairs, returned to the venue with high spirits, and continued to deal with those who intend to invest.

Compared to Mansour, these people can only be considered mosquitoes at best.

But no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat.

In the conference room, Mansour opened a file bag and asked two attendants: "What do you think?"
