Chapter 200 "A Bug's Life" Preview Session
In the following days, Zhu Ke was extremely busy between the crew of "300" and the final scripts of four American dramas.
Logically speaking, at the current level of Zhuke, he can completely let go and let the people below take responsibility. However, under the current premise of "Paramount is no longer a partner", Zhuke really cannot be the boss.
If you are not careful, the media empire that has just been built is very likely to collapse!
After raising a cat and dog for several years, you will have a lot of feelings, let alone a company built by yourself?
The entertainment industry built by movies and TV series is also one of Zhuke’s few hobbies nowadays. How could he be willing to be deprived?
Well, Zucker will never compromise!
fighting!
fighting!
fighting!
Only by fighting can you win survival!
On this day, Zucker missed the live production work of the "300" crew, but was invited to make a debut for the "Beast Crisis" animated film held by Pixar Animation.
"Hi, old Bill!"
"Hi Kevin!"
At the door of the preview of "The Crisis of the Bugs", Zhu Ke, who had just got off the car, saw two generals from his company.
Wald Pictures President: Bill McNick;
Vice President: Kevin Feige;
The three of them greeted each other and walked into the venue together.
Of course, while entering the venue, Zucker also saw John Lasseter, one of the five Pixar Tiger Generals. However, due to the large number of invited guests today, Zucker did not talk much with him.
"Old Bill, Kevin, have you encountered any difficulties in Wald Pictures' recent work?" Zucker asked after sitting down.
"Not yet," Kevin Feige responded.
Old Bill was much more cunning and smiled at Zucker: "Boss, don't be anxious. Well, Kevin and I also know your concerns. After all, that's Paramount, one of the top six in Hollywood! Plus, the parent company Viacom Group, with a market value of up to tens of billions of dollars behind it, should be treated with anyone."
Zhuke glanced at him angrily.
"You know, just know, silly."
Kevin Feige, the two generals under Zucker, are young people after all. Although they are full of motivation, they still respect Zucker quite much.
But Bill McNick is completely different!
He is not young this year and will retire after working for another 2 or 3 years. At the same time, he is also a person who understands his life very well. He is not to get anything, but just to think about shining and heating up again for the rest of his life.
Therefore, his daily communication with Zhuke had almost no distinction between superiors and subordinates.
Zhuke didn't care either.
An experienced old guy can definitely play a role like a stabilizing needle at some point.
"Young man, oh no!"
"Boss, you have to know that the six Hollywood players have never been a solid piece of cake."
"They cooperate, but they are more of competition. We just don't cooperate with Paramount, and it's not a big revenge that will never end in life, such as stealing people's jobs or stealing their wives. They won't take action against us rashly. Of course, it's mainly because you're not short of money, your boss!"
"Warner, Fox, Columbia, Disney, and the world's five giants may win us over, which will bring us enough time to develop."
"And, we are not unable to take the initiative!"
Old Bill drew a few steps and gradually analyzed it. His old and concise words really made the two young men, Zhuke and Kevin Feige, feel much more at ease.
There is an old man in the family, like a treasure!
The ancients did not deceive me!
"Old Bill, what do you mean by taking the initiative?" Zucker asked.
Kevin Feige also waited for Old Bill's following with curiosity.
Online and so on...
"Dreamworks!"
Old Bill confiscated these three words, which surprised Zucker and Kevin.
Both of them were smart people, and they understood immediately and couldn't help but look happy.
Zhuke nodded and said, "Yes, DreamWorks is the six major enemies. If they are blocking them in front, we will be much less pressure."
Kevin Feige echoed: "We can also reach a series of cooperation with DreamWorks to make them more confrontation with the six majors stronger and longer, so that we can develop slowly."
Zhuke, Old Bill, Kevin, and the three of them looked at each other silently and smiled.
Old Yin Bi!
Little fox!
Cunning guy!
As the saying goes, "A fellow Taoist dies but not a fellow Taoist."
For the survival of Jin Shuguang Group, we can only make good use of the giant DreamWorks. Of course, DreamWorks is not that easy, and no one is a philanthropist. The standard of the situation requires Zhu Ke and the top and bottom leaders of the company to carefully consider it.
.........
The movie "The Crisis of the Bug" is a work that Pixar Animation Studio has been away for three years after the release of "Toy Story" in 1995.
A movie "Toy Story" created a box office of $192 million in North America with a production cost of $30 million and a box office of $360 million worldwide. It was the box office champion of Hollywood movies in 1995;
In addition, Pixar Animation has promoted it to the world's most popular animation company. Once Pixar Animation was launched, its market value has increased to US$1 billion;
So far, the "Toy Story" in the past three years, the offline DVD market and video tape market, broadcast copyrights on TV platforms, and the total revenue in the surrounding markets such as books, dolls, and clothing has reached US$1.03 billion.
Even if we have to eliminate the expenses of all classes and channel dealers and eliminate Disney's exploitation, Pixar Animation, as a production company, still achieved shocking and heart-warming high returns.
"The Crisis of the Bugs", as Pixar Animation's second feature film, is naturally eye-catching.
Spielberg from DreamWorks is here;
Jeffrey Carsonberg, one of DreamWorks’ three giants, is here;
20th Century Fox, Time Warner, Sony Columbia and other giant film companies are basically all company CEOs and bosses, who come in person; other companies have also sent representatives to attend the preview of "The Bug Crisis".
There is no doubt that the preview of "The Crisis of the Bug" is so high that it cannot be compared with even the Oscars, because the crowds attending are giants from major companies!
The Oscars cannot get so many bigwigs to gather together.
During this period ~
Zhuke also talked with Murdoch, Redstone and others respectively.
"Mr. Wald, you will summon Bill McNick as a abandoned minister to Wald Pictures under your name, which will make us Fox Pictures a little passive!" Murdoch said lightly.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Ke shook his head violently.
"Mr. Murdoch, Old Bill is a stalemate, who comes to me to support me. If there is anything wrong with me, you, as a senior, must remind me." Zhuke looked respectful.
Murdoch: "…..."
Zhuke's fooling around, Murdoch punched the cotton.
What shit is wrong?
Will you correct it?!
"" has 200 chapters. It has been three months since the book was started, and there has been a lot of hard work. The minister also thanked many book friends for their unyielding support and said thank you.
Chapter completed!
