"Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Abel felt as if he had finally seen Harvey Weinstein.

He swam up to the fat man, smiled and spoke.

"No, no." Harvey Wayans said quickly:

"Not for a long time, just a short while at most."

Abel smiled and said: "But I saw that you were sweating a lot, so you should have been waiting for a long time."

Harvey Weinstein quickly wiped the sweat from his face and continued to lick his face and smile:

"Because I'm relatively fat, I usually like to sweat when I have nothing to do. I really didn't have to wait long."

Look at the fat man looking so submissive.

Abel then let go of Harvey Weinstein and pointed to the arbor under the tree not far away——

"Go sit over there. I'll be back in a moment."

Harvey Weinstein was relieved in his heart, but it didn't show on his face at all, and he didn't really go to the shade. He still stood by the pool and looked at Abel with a smile.

When Abel came up from the swimming pool, Harvey Weinstein even wanted to get a towel to wipe Abel's water.

The staff of Rock Security will certainly not let Harvey Weinstein succeed.

Two female bodyguards came over with bath towels and towels to wipe Abel's body.

Abel didn't even need to do anything. He was more fishy than Wangduoyu. As he walked towards the pergola, he called Harvey Weinstein to come over.

By the time he reached the pavilion, Abel's whole body had been wiped dry.

"Sit down." Abel pointed to the stool in front of him, "I see you're sweating so much. What would you like to drink?"

Harvey Weinstein sat down respectfully and said softly:

"If you can, please give me a glass of water."

"Pa~"

Abel snapped his fingers and said to Tony, who was still wiping his hair: "Have someone bring two glasses of water over."

Tony nodded and gave the other female bodyguard a look.

The female bodyguard quickly went to prepare.

Abel chatted with Harvey Weinstein.

"I asked you to come here so early." Abel said:

"I just want to know how the copyright company, the Rottweiler Company, is doing?"

At the end of April this year, Abel gave Harvey Weinstein a task.

He asked Harvey Weinstein and a man named George Williams, a senior certified public accountant who previously worked at PricewaterhouseCoopers, on his advisory team.

Abel asked these two people to register a copyright company in Los Angeles, and the company's name was Rottweiler.

The logo is the image of Abel's two-and-a-half-headed Rottweiler dog.

The company's initial capital is US$200 million. Its goal is to acquire all kinds of IP copyrights that can be acquired on the market.

Almost two months have passed since then.

George Williams has actually been in contact with the company's senior advisory group.

The progress of the Rottweiler copyright company, as well as the number of copyrights acquired, details, etc., are all sent to the core of the advisory group through internal emails.

The advisory team has a very clear understanding of the situation of the copyright company.

If Abel really wants to know, he only needs to ask Alan Baker to report it.

Harvey Weinstein was deliberately brought here just to mess with this fat man.

The main reason is that Harvey Weinstein did not have a good impression on Abel.

Abel had a negative label in his mind for this famous fat man in Hollywood.

"BOSS." Harvey Weinstein boldly called out, seeing that Abel showed no sign of dissatisfaction with the title.

Harvey Weinstein was very happy and immediately reported:

"BOSS, so far, your loyal copyright hyena has captured 11 high-quality copyrights for you. In addition, I am in contact with 15 companies and individuals to purchase their copyrights."

Abel actually knew this because he had seen the work briefing emailed by George Williams.

Harvey Weinstein's ability to act is indeed very strong. He is indeed a guy who can prosper in Hollywood by relying on his own abilities.

However, the IP currently acquired by Rottweiler Company is generally not of high value.

The most expensive one is just a toy IP that is relatively popular in the United States.

It’s not Transformers. Transformers is a world-class IP, and its parent company is a giant like Hasbro.

How could it be so easy for Harvey Weinstein to get his hands on it?

It can be said that there are achievements, but they are a bit far from what Abel imagined.

"Is it possible to bring the Transformers over?" Abel suddenly asked Harvey Weinstein.

"Transformers?" Harvey Weinstein said in surprise.

At this time, the Hollywood Transformers movie had not yet appeared.

Transformers at this time is the general name for a series of toy products and related comics, animations, movies and other peripheral products jointly developed by Hasbro and Neon TAKARA since 1984.

Its copyright now belongs to Hasbro.

Hasbro is a large game company in the United States and the second largest toy manufacturer in the world, second only to Mattel.

"BOSS. I'm afraid this will be difficult." Harvey Weinstein said in embarrassment:

"Transformers is one of Hasbro's most important core copyrights, and it is unlikely to be sold. But if you need it, boss, I can try to contact you to see if I can get Hasbro's authorization."

In many cases, it does not mean that without copyright, products based on the IP cannot be produced.

As long as you can get permission from the IP owner, that is, the copyright owner, you can still sell products based on the other party's IP creativity.

That is, you must give the other party a licensing fee, or share the revenue, or both the licensing fee and the sharing.

The "Transformers" movie in parallel time and space is a work that Paramount Pictures and DreamWorks can only film after they obtain the film adaptation rights from Hasbro.

Abel actually understands these things.

"Let's get in touch." Abel said: "If you are willing to sell it, I will sell it. If you are not willing to sell it, I will find an opportunity to acquire Hasbro Company!"

Although Harvey Weinstein felt embarrassed after hearing what Abel said before, he probably still wanted to try to see if he could succeed.

But Abel later said that if the copyright acquisition failed, he would acquire other people's companies.

Harvey Weinstein was a little stunned when he heard this.

"That's right." Abel said again:

"I am very satisfied with your work at the Rottweiler Company. Harvey, do you think you can take on more work, or greater responsibilities?"

Harvey Weinstein was stunned at first, and then felt ecstatic.

What does more work and greater responsibility mean?

This is to give yourself more power!

The extremely smart Harvey Weinstein immediately bowed and nodded to Abel like a servant——

"Dear BOSS, no matter what the matter is, I am happy to help you!"

joke.

Nowadays, in all of Hollywood, and even in the entire American entertainment industry, who doesn’t want to work for Abel Smith?

There was Michael Levine who rose to the top in one fell swoop.

From a senior partner of a CAA company, he became the president of Smith Media (not the CEO, there are several presidents).

Later, Robert Iger, one of Disney's former mid-level executives, became the CEO of Smith Media.

These two positions are considered important figures in the entire American entertainment industry.

If you put it in Hollywood, it would be a first-rate giant.

There are many other people who cooperate with Smith Media and have received huge benefits and benefits.

In a short period of time, Abel acquired MGM, Marvel, Dark Horse, DreamWorks and Pixar.

In less than a year, a new super giant was created in Hollywood.

An opportunity to work for such a super tycoon.

This is something that everyone in Hollywood and even the entire American entertainment industry is fighting for.

Harvey Weinstein was already in charge of the Rottweiler dog company when he was in charge of Abel.
