Hollywood starts with animation

Chapter 50 The Big Boss in Hollywood

"Lassett, you are very busy now. Except for the last celebration party, I asked you out to play golf several times. You are not free."

Zhuke looked at Lasseter with a grimace.

"Haha, sorry, I'm not busy lately." Lasseter waved his hand apologetically.

The two have known each other for more than a year, and with Zhuke's ability to draw in, the friendship is really good.I do know that he is busy recently.

Well, I am busy planning and producing Pixar's second feature-length computer animation-"Bug Crisis".

In addition, Pixar has also benefited from the rise in its stock price. It has recently expanded its manpower from the original dozens of people to nearly 400 people today.

"Heh~, it seems that you are really strong now, um, and your Pixar gang is fighting, and you will be more and more powerful in the future!" Zhu Ke exclaimed.

Hearing this, Lasseter waved his hand and smiled: "It's okay, it's okay."

Lasseter is humble, but the one next to him doesn't know how humble.

"Huh~!"

Jobs gave Zucker a heavy look and said: "Mr. Wald, we Pixar used to be great, now we are great, and we will be even better in the future. This is a matter of course. No need for your praise."

Grass mud horse~!

Damn it!

I blew you a few words, why are you criticizing me?!

Zhuke was instantly annoyed.

The entire United States was fucking saying that Jobs was arrogant and arrogant. Zhuke didn't think it was serious before, but now it seems to be true.

After a little thought, Zhuke understood.

When he came into contact with Steve Jobs in 1995, it was his most impoverished and lowest period. At that time, he just wanted to be a grandson because he couldn't get up.

But now, with the explosion of "Toy Story", Pixar has a market value of more than one billion US dollars. He no longer pretends to be a grandson, and once again restored his arrogant qualities.

Moreover, it is said that in the near future, he may return to Apple.

In fact, the same is true. Following the original trajectory of time and space, Jobs will return to Apple in January 1997 to take over the power of the company.

"Jobs, our two have worked together anyway, you don't have to say that."

Zhu Keqiang said angrily.

Jobs shook his head and said, "There is no need to say that, but when I thought of selling you the peripheral copyright of "Toy Story" at a low price, I was so angry. I was always the only one who took advantage of others. Can take advantage of my Jobs."

Got~!

Just at this sentence, Zhu Ke stopped angry.

"Hehe, when it comes to taking advantage, Lao Tzu is really not afraid."

"I'm happy to see you aggrieved."

Zhuke is not a good person, and he is not merciless when it comes to irritating things.

"you.......!"

Steve Jobs looked at the hippie smiling Zhuke angrily, and found that he had no choice but to leave secretly.

Lasseter curled his lips to the side, and said helplessly: "Zuke, can't you let him be a little bit? After all, you also know that he is an old child and has a mouthful."

Zhuke continued: "Hey, let me just say that. Who knows that his temper is still so bad? He is not generous at all. He always remembers the corners and corners."

Victor on the side shook his head without speaking.

Jobs is not a good temper;

In fact, Zhuke is not much better.Once encountering unpleasant things, words like "fuck", "damn", and "bastard" continue to pop up in that mouth.

"I said Lasseter, you just said that your boss, aren't you afraid that he will lift the table?" Zhuke curiously asked.

Lasseter smiled and said, "No. Didn't I say that, he is not forgiving, in fact, he is very good to our Pixar insiders."

Zhuke nodded.

From what I know, it is true.

You know, the working environment and atmosphere of Pixar in the future is indeed the first in the United States!

Single-family villa-style office buildings, sumptuous food available at any time, large areas of greenery, personal free studios, various indoor activities, football fields in front of your house, swimming pools, etc., which Isn't the item fascinating?

The extremely superior welfare and working environment are important conditions for the formation of Pixar's gang!

It can be seen from this that Jobs really had nothing to say to everyone at Pixar.

.......

quickly.

As the official start time of the cocktail party approaches, the bigwigs from all parties in Hollywood have begun to appear one after another!

Spielberg, Katzenberg and David Geffen of the Big Three of DreamWorks;

Great director Cameron James;

Barry Meyer, CEO of Warner Future;

Murdoch, the boss of Fox in the 20th century;

Redstone, the owner of Paramount;

Two-time Oscar actor Tom Hanks;

Famous Hollywood producer Bruheimer;

.......

Wait for the big guy, who is not the big guy who resounds throughout North America?

Looking at them, Zhuke couldn't help but curl his lips at Victor: "Victor, don't envy them. In a few years, we will also be guests at major receptions."

After that, I added another sentence: "Well, more popular than them."

Upon hearing this, Victor smiled and said, "Boss, you are happy."

Obviously, Victor didn't quite believe Zucker's words.

In other words, as long as it is a normal person.After all, dude, those are the top six in Hollywood!Does it mean that transcendence can be transcended?

In fact, Zhu Ke still has some confidence!

"Lao Tzu is a traverser, and there is a system that often pretends to be dead. No matter how bad it is, as long as you grasp the two major events of the Internet bubble in early 2000 and the global financial crisis in 2008, you will definitely be able to make a lot of money. full."

The following time, Zhuke and Victor turned on the cheeky mode.

Expand your contacts madly and shamelessly.

"Hello~"

"Hello, Will Smith, I'm Zucker Wald, a director and the owner of a film company."

The first target Zhuke contacted was Will Smith.

With the release of "Independence Day" some time ago, Will Smith was completely popular all over the world.Of course, as far as Zhu Ke knows, he will be even more popular in the next ten years.

"Men in Black", "Boxing King Ali", "Mechanical Enemy", "When Happiness Comes Knock on the Door", "I Am a Legend", etc., which of these films he starred in has not won a high box office worldwide ?

Knowing him now is definitely not a loss for Zhu Ke!

.......

The second goal, Xiao Lizi.

"Mr. DiCaprio, nice to meet you."

"I'm the owner of a film company, yes, but I also have a nearby chain store. Well, SpongeBob House."

"Oh? Have you heard of it? That would be even better."

"Yes, although we only have 7 stores in Los Angeles, our reputation and turnover are definitely in the entire Los Angeles, and even the entire California area, which ranks first."

"Oh~, there will definitely be opportunities for film cooperation in the future."

"I want to ask you this time, are you interested in becoming the spokesperson of our SpongeBob House?"

"Relax, according to your reputation, I will definitely give a high price!"

Zhuke held a wine glass and chatted with Xiao Li.

Xiao Lizi became famous very early. Since "The Troubles of Growing Up", he has become a well-known child star in the United States; in 1993, he was nominated for the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for "A Different Sky"; in 1995, he became the Berlin Film Festival in one fell swoop The actor.

It is no exaggeration to say that even if he has not become popular around the world because of "Titanic", he is not an ordinary movie actor.

Of course, now he is more of a literary male god!

Its commercial value is not high.

Especially when he lost his child star aura, there are not many endorsements on him now.

Well, the endorsement fee is not too high!

Otherwise, in the face of him after 97 years, Zhuke will definitely not think about it.

"Lao Tzu is smart. As long as I sign him, my SpongeBob House will benefit after "Titanic" is released."

"I'm such a clever ghost!"

Zhuke began to think about things.

The two-hour reception ended soon.

Zhuke and Victor only felt that their trip was worthwhile, and they met a lot of big people.

After the excited Zhuke returned home, he received a phone call and got another good news.

"Mr. Wald, our icq has been developed. Would you like to come and have a look tomorrow?"

Upon hearing this news, even though it was almost 11 o'clock in the evening, Zhu Ke was quite excited and not sleepy.
