After the premiere of "The Crisis of Bugs", Zucker did not leave immediately, but gathered in a nearby cafe with Kasenberg of DreamWorks Animation.

"Zuke, just say anything." Katzenberg took a sip of coffee indifferently.

Katsenberg is a very proud person. If someone else invites him, he may be disdainful. However, with Zhuke's current status, he has to give this face.

Zhukron said, "Then I'll just say it, I want the overseas distribution rights of your animation films produced by DreamWorks Animation."

“……”

Katsenberg was shocked.

"Young man, are you kidding?" Kasenberg was shocked.

"Jeffrey, as we all know, our group is building overseas issuance channels. Currently, it has good distribution channels in Mexico, Canada and other countries. Moreover, my price and charges are much lower than those of Paramount." Zucker said.

"Why don't you mention Europe, Asia, and Australia?" Katsenberg said.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Ke immediately waved his hand: "Don't be anxious. As far as I know, the overseas distribution contract signed by your company and Universal Pictures is only less than 2 years left. And I am confident that within two years, the layout of distribution channels in Europe, Asia and Australia will be completed. Of course, you may think I'm joking, but isn't there any more choice for me? This is completely unfavorable for you and DreamWorks."

Katzenberg nodded.

After all, Wald Pictures’ commission for film distribution is much lower than that of the six major Hollywood majors such as Paramount.

The interests are enough to make anyone compromise.

Katsenberg didn't think about it for a long time and smiled, "Okay, I'll give you two years, and we'll talk about it later."

Work with Wald Pictures?

hehe!

Katzenberg really doesn't believe that Wald Pictures can improve its overseas distribution channels within two years.

You should know that in addition to the six major Hollywoods, there is currently only one once brilliant MGM with a complete global distribution channel.

Others?

Haha, there is no one!

He now promised Zhuke to give him a chance, which was just a perfunctory approach.

But Zhuke doesn't care. Facts are better than words. No matter how much you say now, without strength, nothing is there!

Two years later, "Monster Shrek 1", first released, the box office of $270 million harvested in North America alone, became the most popular animated film in North America in history.

How can Zhuke, who has vampire attributes, not be jealous of all the animations online and offline?

A few hours ago, Zucker established the "Battleheaded" character mainly for the moment. Otherwise, according to Carsonberg's arrogant personality, Zucker would never have given him a chance!

At the same time, "Monster Shrek 1" that exploded two years later actually has a coincidence!

That's right, it's just a coincidence!

DreamWorks Animation does not value "Shrek Monster"!

An "anti-fairy tale" and "spoken" animated film is considered alternative and niche in many people. DreamWorks Animation Company itself doesn't care, but such an unrespected film has achieved amazing box office performance!

Jukedo's thief!

"If you really take over the release of "Shrek's Monster", then once you succeed, you will be able to make a big profit in the overseas box office, and it will definitely bring Wald Pictures' overseas distribution business to a new level;"

"If it fails and the overseas box office fails, that's nothing. After all, DreamWorks itself doesn't care much, right?"

So, Zhuke is very treacherous and takes it into consideration on both sides.

.........

A few days later.

The "Beast Crisis" animation is released!

The box office hit!

On the first day of its release, the North American box office closed at $33.2 million, ranking first in the North American box office rankings on Thanksgiving Day;

Compared with the $29.14 million on the first day of "Toy Story", which was released three years ago, it is more than $4 million.

Within one week of release, the North American box office was over 100 million!

Pixar animation, shocking Hollywood again!

John Lasseter and Andrew Stanton, the two directors of the "Beast Crisis" animation, are famous in the United States.

But.......

Such an excellent "Beast Crisis" animation did not meet the expectations of Pixar and Disney Group.

After the Thanksgiving period ended, the box office performance of "The Bug Crisis" in North America showed a rapid decline.

Performance is much lower than expected!

"What?"

Jobs looked at Pixar in surprise and said: "You mean that the final box office of our "Beast Crisis" will be much lower than that of "Toy Story."

"Yes, sir."

Market analysis expert Russell said in a deep voice: "From the current performance of North American and overseas markets, the box office of "The Bug Crisis" in North America will be less than US$170 million. As for the overseas market, there is currently few data, but the overall trend is not optimistic."

Jobs was unhappy!

John Lasseter and others were also a little discouraged.

Toy Story is a production cost of $30 million, achieving a North American box office of $190 million, and breaking the box office record of a series of animated films;

However, the production cost of the movie "Beast Crisis" is as high as 70 million, and the expenditure on promotion and distribution costs is much higher than that of "Toy Story", but the box office performance is far lower than expected.

You said, can Jobs be in a good mood?

"Boss. We don't have to worry too much. At least a few months ago, our surrounding authorization had already made a lot of money." Analyst expert Russell comforted.

The words fell.

The faces of the people around him immediately looked much better.

"Yes, we made a big profit with the peripheral authorization a few months ago."

"That's right."

"Each state has an average price of $2.35 million, and only 50 states in the United States sold $117.5 million."

"This is just a periphery authorization in America!"

"If I remember correctly, our "Beast Crisis" peripheral authorization in overseas countries has also received $200 million in funds in addition to subsequent sales dividends."

Everyone present calculated that even though the box office performance of "The Bug Crisis" was not as expected, Pixar and Disney Group still made a big profit.

Everyone's mood has improved a lot.

Lasseter shook his head and smiled bitterly: "But those retail stores and chain stores that have obtained authorized peripherals will probably suffer a lot."

That's right, Lasset guessed it right.

In fact, now the owners of movie chain stores around the United States have the hearts of scolding Pixar and Disney to death.

I've lost so much!

.........

Utah.

Diet's surrounding chain store.

Monel, who once won the "Beast Crisis" authorized in Utah for $3 million, is almost crying!

"Damn Pixar!"

"Damn Disney!"

"The Bug Crisis Like a Dog Shame!"

"It's been 9 days. It's been 9 days since the release of "The Crisis of the Bug" and my 15 surrounding chain stores have not sold much of the surrounding "The Crisis of the Bug". It's much worse than the surrounding "Toy Story". No, it's not the same magnitude at all."

Monel specially hired a statistics company to conduct accounting.

He was shocked to find that he couldn't help but make money on the authorized project of "The Bug Crisis", but instead lost at least $1.5 million.

At this moment, Meng Aier has the heart to die!

"Haha, I'll make you crazy, now I know I regret it."

Francis, who also runs a nearby chain store in Utah, mocked Monel.

At the auction a few months ago, Francis also regretted the failure of the "Beast Crisis" license competition, but now he can only be glad.

at the same time.

Old Billy, also Zhuke's old friend who made a living in Utah.

He was also very scared at this moment!

"The Crisis of Bugs is a useless rib, and there is no need for competitive authorization at all!"

This is what Zhuke once said to Billy the Old.
