Chapter 567 The operation of water world animation
“Boss!”
"Mr. Wald!"
"Chairman!"
......
All kinds of titles are labels on Zhuke. Zhuke, who had just entered the Aqua World animation, was warmly welcomed by all the employees.
"Boss, welcome you. Believe me, the animated film "Flying House Global" will not disappoint you."
Stephen Sorenberg, CEO of Water World Animation, gave Zucker a big hug.
Zhuke pushed him away with disgust: "Good guy, you are in your forties. You pounced on me as soon as you saw me. You are so mean to make me do evil."
Stephen Sorenberg responded indifferently: "Zuke, hugs have nothing to do with age."
The two have a very good relationship and often joke with each other.
Sometimes, Stephen also hurts Juke in person.
David Messer, chief screenwriter and vice president, got involved: "I wanted to hug you too, but the boss is right. You are not a big beauty, but a man with hormones that are overwhelming."
After some jokes, everyone got to the point.
Zhuke is not just a nonsense when he comes to Water World Animation today.
The animated film "Flying House Global Records" launched at the end of 1999 was completely completed a week ago.
Well, the kind that can be released at any time.
"Oh? You mean, you have obtained the release license and the rating of the Film Association." Zhuke was a little surprised.
Stephen Sorenberg nodded and said, "The Film Society gives it a G-level."
The G-level under the North American film rating system is the mass level, and can be watched by all age groups without age restrictions.
Sorenberg smiled and said, "Boss, do you think the ranking of the Film Association is going smoothly?"
"That's right!"
Zucker nodded.
The American Film Association holds the right to rank under the rating system.
G-level (Volkswagen), PG-level, PG-level 13, R-level, NC-level 17...
It clearly defines the age group and viewing scale of movie viewing.
In the first half of 2001, Wald Pictures suffered varying degrees of suppression and exclusion from its peers, including the rating of the Film Association.
Films produced by Wald Pictures in the first half of the year, such as "Shaw Beach" and "Zone 9", were targeted more than once when submitting the film grading procedures.
"Columbia, Warner, Universal, Disney, Fox, Paramount, and MGM, these seven film companies control the right to rank all films in North America. Even though I have a good relationship with Fox and Paramount, our films are still subject to discrimination and suppression. So, I was very surprised to hear that the rank of "Flying House Universal" was so smooth."
Zhuke expressed his doubts.
What?
You said "Flying House Global" is just a simple animated movie, without involving blood or violence, and the film association has no reason to get stuck.
Haha, I'm thinking too much!
As long as seven film companies including Columbia and Disney are willing, they have a hundred ways to get stuck in your movies.
Stephen Sorenberg suddenly laughed and said, "Boss, you forgot a little, a very important point."
"What?" Zucker was very curious.
"Boss, our Water World Animation is now a listed company. Even though its parent company, Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group, still holds a huge majority of the shares and voting rights, the company has more than 35% of the shares and is a circulating stock."
"Many of these outstanding shares are controlled by Wall Street investment banks and major investment institutions, and their energy is not low."
"The release of "Flying House Global" is blocked, and their interests will naturally be affected."
After a while, Zhu Ke suddenly realized.
Zhu Ke slapped his forehead and said to himself: "I'm so busy. It seems that I've lacked attention to Water World animation recently."
Up to now, Zucker has long stopped fighting alone.
As for Water World Animation alone, the senior management and backbone personnel within its company are almost all shareholders, and the difference is just the number of shares they hold. A large number of investment institutions that hold shares of Water World Animation Company are naturally Zucker's allies.
At least in terms of interests, Zhuk has won many people.
There is nothing to see in the early 21st century, but the future is an era of strong alliances and gathering together to keep warm.
Fighting alone will only make your path narrower and narrower!
......
"Now, make sure when will the "Flying House Global" animation be released?"
Zucker looked around everyone.
Zhu Ke is looking forward to the upcoming animated film "Flying House and Global" that will be released.
The film tells the story of an old man who once made an appointment with his wife to travel to a waterfall located in faraway South America, but he failed to make a journey because of life. Until his wife passed away and the government wanted to demolish its old house, he made an amazing decision.
He tied thousands of balloons to the roof and flew into the air with the foundation, and he flew towards South America to fulfill his promises to his wife many years ago.
The film was released in 2009 and was created by Pixar Animation for $175 million. Once released, its reputation and box office exploded.
The global box office won $735 million;
In terms of Oscars, he also won the Best Animation Feature Film Award.
"Happiness is not immortality, not big fish and meat, not power over the government."
"Happiness is the fulfillment of every small life wish. When you want to eat, you have something to eat, and when you want to be loved, someone will love you."
The classic lines in the animated film "Flying House and Global" have made Zhuke feel deeply many times.
This animated film is an unforgettable classic among Pixar Animation’s series of works.
Vice President David Messer first said: "First of all, we need to clarify the fact that Pixar Animation's film "Monster Electric Company" has been initially scheduled for this year's Thanksgiving schedule. Will we avoid it or challenge it?"
Pixar Animation is undoubtedly the best animation company in the world today.
Zhuke did not answer directly, but asked: "So what if you avoid it, what if you say the positive challenge?"
David Messel said in a deep voice: "I personally do not support the release of "Monster Electric Power Company". Even if our "Flying House Global" is excellent enough, but... I still feel that it can be released at the same time and compete for the best."
“…”
The executives present couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
CEO Sorenberg: "Our movies with Pixar Animation will be released at the same time, and the box office will inevitably be affected."
Pixar Animation is not something you can challenge easily!
Many executives want to speak but stop, and they think it is best to avoid it.
Slap sex!
At this time, Zucker suddenly applauded.
Zhuke looked at David Messel with great relief and smiled: "I support your idea!"
“…”
For a moment, the executives became even more confused.
Saurenberg hesitated, "Is this really going to happen?"
"certainly!"
Zhuke said without hesitation: "Our Water World Animation ranking is already lower than Pixar Animation. If we win this movie box office battle, then we will definitely make a big profit; if we lose, what's the point? We are a little worse than Pixar."
You think I will lose, but in fact I will never lose.
Since the rise of Pixar Animation, countless animation companies have wanted to challenge its status, but what are the consequences? All of them have failed miserably!
Even DreamWorks Jeffrey Carsonberg, he yelled more than once: "DreamWorks will surpass Pixar and replace his industry dominance."
But what about reality?
DreamWorks Animation’s works have never been released at the same time as Pixar Animation’s works!
Zhuke waved his fists fiercely and said loudly: "No one wants to be second, third, as long as we win, we are first, and we are the leader in the industry!"
Don't be timid, get reckless!
You should know that "Flying House and Global" was originally a work of Pixar animation in its original time and space, but it was intercepted and it now belongs to Water World Animation Company.
Zhuke thought about it and thought it was great!
Chapter completed!
