Hollywood starts with animation

Chapter 572: The Operation of Water World Animation

"Boss!"

"Mr. Wald!"

"Chairman!"

...

All kinds of titles are the labels on Zhu Ke. Zhu Ke, who just entered the water world animation, was warmly welcomed by all the staff.

"Boss, welcome your visit. Trust me, the animated film "The Flying House" will not disappoint you."

Stephen Solenberg, CEO of Water World Animation, gave Zhu Ke a big hug.

Zhuke pushed him away with a look of disgust: "Good fellow, you are in your forties, you rushed over as soon as you saw me, you are so evil to me."

Stephen Solenberg responded indifferently: "Zuke, hugs have nothing to do with age."

The relationship between the two is very good, often joking with each other.

Sometimes, Stephen does not hurt Zuke face to face.

David Messer, the chief screenwriter and vice president, intervened: "I wanted to hug me too, but the boss is right. You are not a big beauty, but a man with a hormonal explosion."

After some jokes, everyone got to the point.

Zhu Ke's visit to the Water World Animation Company today is not just a nonsense.

The animated film "The World of Flying Houses", which was approved 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 already got the release permit and the film association's rating." Zhu Ke was slightly surprised.

Stephen Solenberg nodded and said: "The rating given by the Film Association is G."

The G-level under the North American film classification system is the popular level and can be watched by all age groups, regardless of age.

Solenberg laughed and said, "Boss, do you think the classification of the Film Association is going well this time?"

"Yes!"

Zhuke nodded.

The Motion Picture Association of America holds the rating rights under the rating system.

G level (popular level), PG level, PG-13 level, R level, NC-17 level...

Clearly define the age group and scale of the movie.

In the first half of 2001, Wald Pictures suffered varying degrees of suppression and exclusion from its peers, including the classification of the Film Association.

Movies produced by Wald Pictures in the first half of the year, such as "Shark Beach" and "District Nine", were targeted more than once when they submitted the film grading procedures.

"Columbia, Warner, Universal, Disney, Fox, Paramount, and MGM. These seven film companies hold the right to rate all films in North America. Even though I have a good relationship with Fox and Paramount, our Movies still suffer from discrimination and suppression. Therefore, I was surprised to hear that the rating of "The Flying House of the Globe" was so smooth."

Zhuke uttered his doubts.

what?

You said that "Flying House Global" is just a purely animated film that does not involve blood, violence, and the Film Association has no reason to get stuck.

Haha, I think too much!

As long as the 7 film companies such as Columbia and Disney are willing, they have a hundred ways to block your movie.

Steven Solenberg laughed suddenly: "Boss, you forgot one point, a very important point."

"What?" Zhu Ke was curious.

"Boss, our Water World Animation is now a listed company. Even if the parent company Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group still holds a huge majority of shares and voting rights, the company has more than 35% of the shares, which are tradable shares."

"Many of these tradable shares are controlled by Wall Street investment banks and major investment institutions, and their energy is not low."

"The release of "Flying House" is blocked, and their interests will naturally be affected."

After the conversation, Zhu Ke suddenly realized.

Zhu Ke slapped his forehead and laughed at himself: "I am so busy and confused. It seems that I have been lacking attention to the water world animation recently."

Up to now, Zhu Ke is no longer alone.

As far as Water World Animation under its name is concerned, almost all the senior and key personnel in the company are shareholders, and the difference is only the number of shares held.A large number of investment institutions holding shares of Water World Animation Company are naturally Zhu Ke's allies.

At least in terms of interests, Zhukla has attracted many people.

At the beginning of the 21st century, there is nothing to be seen, but the future is an era of strong alliances and warmth.

Fighting alone will only make your path narrower and narrower!

...

"Now make sure, when will the animation of "The Flying House of the Globe" be released?"

Zhu Ke looked around everyone.

Zhu Ke is very much looking forward to the upcoming animated film "The Flying House of the Globe".

The film tells about an old man who once agreed with his wife to travel to a waterfall located in remote South America, but was unable to make the trip because of his life. Until his wife died and the government wanted to demolish his old house, he made an amazing Decided.

He tied thousands of balloons to the roof and flew into the air together with the foundation. He flew toward South America to fulfill the promise he made to his wife many years ago.

The movie was released in 2009 and was built by Pixar Animation at a cost of US$175 million. Once it was released, word-of-mouth box office exploded.

The global box office outrageously won 735 million US dollars;

In terms of Oscars, it also won the best animated feature film award.

"Happiness is not about being immortal, not having big fish, or power in one's hands."

"Happiness is the fulfillment of every tiny wish in life, to have something to eat when you want to eat, and someone to love you when you want to be loved."

The classic lines in the animated film "Flying House" has made Zhu Ke feel deeply.

The animated film is among the series of Pixar animation works, and it is also an unforgettable classic.

Vice President David Messer first said: "First of all, we must clarify the fact that Pixar Animation’s movie "Monsters Electric Company" has been initially scheduled for this year’s Thanksgiving. Will we avoid it, or is it Head-on challenge?"

Pixar Animation is undoubtedly the best animation company in the world today.

Zhu Ke didn't answer directly, but asked: "What about avoiding? What about frontal challenges?"

David Messer said solemnly: "I personally do not support the release of "Monster Electric Company" at the same time, even if our "Flying House Globe" is good enough. But... I still think it can be the same In theaters, compete for higher and lower."

"..."

The executives present couldn't help being a little surprised.

CEO Solenberg: "We are released at the same time as the Pixar Animation film, and the box office is bound to be affected."

This mountain of Pixar Animation is not easy to challenge!

Many executives hesitate to speak and stop, they think it is best to avoid.

Happiness!

At this time, Zhuke suddenly applauded.

Zhuke looked at David Messer very pleasedly, with a big smile: "I support your idea!"

"..."

For a time, the executives became more confused.

Solenberg said hesitantly: "Is that really the case?"

"of course!"

Zhu Ke said without hesitation: "Our Aquaworld Animation ranks below Pixar Animation. In this movie box office battle, if we win, then we definitely make a lot of money; if we lose, why not? It was a bit 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 position, but the result?Both are fiasco!

Even Jeffrey Katzenberg of DreamWorks clamored more than once: "DreamWorks will surpass Pixar and replace his dominant position in the industry."

But what about reality?

DreamWorks Animation’s works have never dared to be released at the same time as Pixar Animation’s works!

Zhu Ke waved his fist fiercely and said loudly: "No one wants to be second or third. As long as we win, we will be first and we are the industry leader!"

Don't be persuaded, get up and do it!

One thing to know is that "Flying House Global" originally belonged to Pixar Animation in the original time and space, but it was cut off. It now belongs to Water World Animation.

Take Pixar's work to harden Pixar's work, Zhuke thinks it is very good!
