When it comes to things like buying or selling a house, everything is easy if you have money.
With the financial support from the big boss of Shion, Nanaya bought the house in just one and a half days.
It can be said that apart from being asked to leave some strange signs in the garden, the whole transaction process was perfect.
The only thing that made Nanaya feel a little regretful was that the senior executive of Sony did not show up from beginning to end, and it seemed that he had entrusted all matters to Tanaka.
Otherwise, Nanaya really wanted to see his expression when Washimine's people took away his house.
He believed that this would be very interesting.
However, Nanaya's joy of owning a new house did not last long, because like the Sony executive, he had to leave Japan without living in the house for even a single day.
"I originally wanted to live in the house for two days to see if the European design was suitable for me."
This was the first complaint that Nanaya made after he came to North America and met Shion.
Because he was deceived by the agent Tanaka when buying a house, Nanaya really wanted to try out whether this villa was really as comfortable to live in as he said.
Shion raised her eyebrows: "So you mean your little villa is more important than Marvel~"
"Of course not! Business must be more important."
Nanaya's face changed immediately. He did not forget that he still owed Shion billions of money.
Don't treat the Japanese yen as if it weren't money. After all, you can still buy a lot of things with it.
Although Shion did not set a time limit for Nanaya to pay back the money, Nanaya, who did not like to owe money, thought it would be better to pay it back as soon as possible.
If Marvel can make a lot of money, wouldn't everything be simple?
Although these billions of yen are just the profit sharing from a few rounds of "Fate".
"Then I have good news for you first." Shion handed a document to Nanaya, "From today on, you are the largest individual shareholder of Marvel."
"Why?"
Nanaya looked at Shion in disbelief.
It's not that he had a problem with the arrangement of Marvel's shares. Nanaya just didn't expect Shion to put Marvel's shares directly under his own name instead of under the name of [Erque Studio].
Without mentioning anything else, just with regard to Marvel's profit sharing, Nanaya can get the money directly from Marvel's account without going through the studio.
You have to know that if you are in charge of a studio, not to mention that Nanaya has already diluted some of its shares, even if Nanaya still has 100% of the shares, according to legal requirements, Nanaya cannot take all the profits away.
Because he had to leave a portion for the development of the studio, otherwise it would be considered as wanton encroachment on company property.
Therefore, Shion's move allowed Nanaya to directly enjoy Marvel's profit sharing in the future.
As for whether Marvel will agree to share the profits in the future, Nanaya believes that they will definitely do so.
"Well~"
Shion blushed and twirled her hair, "Don't you like Marvel very much? In this case, you will put more thought into saving Marvel."
"Boss lady, you are so nice to me." Nanaya laughed, "Tell me, what do you need me to do?"
"Bah, who is your child's mother!"
Nanaya was spat at by Shion for no apparent reason.
"Yes, that's right."
Shion also knew that she was overreacting, so she covered her mouth with a folding fan to prevent Nanaya from seeing her shy expression.
"Marvel hopes their first Iron Man movie will be a success."
"This isn't hope, is it? It's a must to succeed. If it doesn't succeed, these people can just get out."
Although it had been less than 5 minutes since Nanaya officially acquired Marvel's stock, he immediately took the position of a capitalist.
"Even if you say so, the people at Marvel themselves aren't very confident."
Nanaya said coldly: "Haven't they already attracted customers to raise money to prepare for the filming of "Iron Man"? Why are they losing confidence again?"
In fact, Nanaya didn't know that Marvel's change in mentality came from his intervention.
When Marvel was preparing for "Iron Man", it adopted the attitude of "if they don't succeed, they will die". It threw all the bad things behind it and tried its best to make "Iron Man".
The battle that breaks out from a desperate team is always the strongest. In the previous life, Marvel completed a task that everyone thought was impossible.
But now with the addition of Washimine's father, Marvel has a strong and powerful capital backing, and it now has a way out.
Under such circumstances, Marvel lacks a bit of momentum and is more conservative.
After all, the original configuration of the "Iron Man" crew members was a minimum configuration that could not be guaranteed, and now with the support of Washimine's father, Marvel hopes to be more conservative in the crew lineup.
This is like a poor FGO player who only has 30 stones, which are only enough for 10 consecutive draws.
So for him, being able to ship out ten shipments in a row is already a great luck.
But for wealthy players, if you don't get 5 treasures for the card you like, do you still dare to say you love it?
With the financial support from Washimine's father, Marvel, a poor player, also wanted to try the luxury of spending real money to get 5 treasures.
"So, you want me to be the director?"
Nanaya pointed at himself and asked back.
At this time, Nanaya was in the board office of Marvel's New York office building, and Marvel's current senior executives were also gathered in this office.
After the meeting with Shion, he was driven here by the other party to attend the production meeting of "Iron Man".
At present, although Marvel still has some procedures to complete, the acquisition of Marvel by Washimine has become a foregone conclusion.
Therefore, Nanaya certainly has the right to attend the meeting, not to mention that Marvel took the initiative to invite him.
"That's right."
Kevin Feige nodded vigorously. "Because Director Kiryu is currently the best commercial film director in the world, we hope that you can be the director of Iron Man."
"This..."
From Marvel's perspective, there is absolutely nothing wrong with this proposal, but Nanaya himself does not think so.
Although Nanaya is taking the path of commercial genre films, the style of his films is different from Marvel's hilarious style.
If it is the second or third phase, Nanaya might be interested in directing one of the films.
But let's forget about the first stage, after all, most of these movies are just above the passing line, and if Nanaya makes them he will only ruin his own reputation.
The highly-rated "Iron Man" and "Avengers 1" are incompatible with Nanaya's films in terms of film style.
Just like you would never like to eat oyster sauce slices wrapped in ice cream, Nanaya believed that it would be a disaster if he made those two movies.
It is important for people to know themselves.
Apparently, he had.
"But..."
Kevin Feige still wanted to fight for it again, but Nanaya did not give him the chance.
"I will be the film's producer, but forget about directing. I'm really not suited to superhero movies."
Nanaya said: "You can choose a director who has experience and box office results as a foundation, but is still a newcomer.
"This will make it easier to control the crew and unify your worldview."
Although the Marvel Cinematic Universe plan is Marvel's top-level secret, even the company is about to become someone else's, so this plan will naturally be told to Washimine and Nanaya.
Therefore, no one present was surprised when Nanaya proposed the MCU worldview.
"I think..."
Kevin Feige still felt it was inappropriate, but Nanaya was not the only one who opposed Nanaya becoming the director.
"Kevin, you don't have to feel that way."
Avi Arad, who was sitting at the head of the long table, spoke up. "I think what Director Kiryu said makes sense. His style is not consistent with that of Iron Man. A forced melon is not sweet."
Avi Arad certainly didn't want Seven Nights to be the director; he wanted "Iron Man" to be completed under his leadership.
Therefore, in Avi Arad's eyes, the director of "Iron Man" can only be his puppet, and the movie can only be made according to his ideas.
If a director as qualified and talented as Nanaya joined the crew, it would definitely not be a good thing for Avi Arad.
There was a conflict between the two of them. Who should the crew listen to?
If there was really no other way, Avi Arad wouldn't even want to give the title of producer.
[The only factor for the success of "Iron Man" is me. How could this wild director (Nanaya) who came out of nowhere interfere with the great "Iron Man"? ]
Avi Arad was completely unaware of the image of a tyrannical tyrant he was seen by others. After all, victors have always been exempt from responsibility.
"Put aside the selection of directors for now. I think you should collect information on emerging directors and tell me after you have selected a few alternatives."
As for whether Kevin Feige would also find that "Happy" to be the director, Nanaya didn't know and was not interested.
After all, the success of the movie "Iron Man" can be said to be a typical case of IP overshadowing the crew.
"What about the main actors? How many alternatives do you have?"
It's funny to say that the first person to be confirmed for the movie "Iron Man" was not the director or the male lead, but the female lead who had seriously insufficient roles.
"I have a recommendation for the male lead." A senior executive said hesitantly, "But there is a problem with the actor."
"who?"
Nanaya showed an interested expression.

"So, you're going to be my follower for the next while?"
A few days later, Robert Downey Jr. almost growled at the person standing in front of him.
"Come on, man."
Ed said helplessly: "I don't want to stare at a man 24 hours a day. I have a wife and children. So for the sake of my work, you should cooperate with me."
"I must have owed you in my past life."
Knowing he couldn't refuse the other party, Donnie let out a whine.
