Hollywood starts with animation

Chapter 95 Water World Animation Studio

After the end of the day-long inspection of Wald Pictures, Zhu Ke, together with the team from the head office, began the second stop again.

Second stop: UPN Television Network.

It is currently the subsidiary company of Zucker, second only to Wald Pictures, and its importance needless to say.

Although Zhu Ke entered and exited the UPN TV network recently and stayed in the program group of "The Talent Show" for a long time, he did not pay much attention to other related departments of UPN TV network.

Taking advantage of this review opportunity, of course, we have to look at the situation of the acquisition of UPN in the past six months.

"Boss, thanks to the popularity of the two ace shows, "SpongeBob SquarePants" and "America's Got Talent", the ratings of other channels on our TV network have also risen a lot, especially the new ones. According to hot news reports, the ratings have broken 1.5%," said company executive Alexander.

Zhuke nodded.

Zhu Ke still knows Alexander, who is the director of the channel department of the UPN TV network.

In recent exchanges, I found that he is a very thoughtful person.

More than two months ago, Zhu Ke communicated with him for the first time, but only mentioned that he has a good impression of Chinese Americans.In addition, Alexander himself is also a member of Russian descent, and he is also a minority in the United States.

Alexander immediately became active!

In just half a month, a news section aimed at minority ethnic groups from outside was planned and prepared.

The result was unexpectedly good!

It should be understood that although the news media advertises the principles of fairness, impartiality, and seeking truth from facts, it is often difficult to achieve this due to human manipulation, especially for the Chinese and Asian groups, and many television media even use this for a long time. joke.

Well, or to be precise, it is basically full of prejudice and discrimination!

for example:

In the 2016 U.S. presidential election, in a debate, because the candidate mentioned 12 times the "great dynasty", the Fox TV station then sent reporters to Chinatown in New York to conduct interviews and interview public opinion.

Here is going to be stroked.

Mentioned the "Great Heaven" in the debate, so you go to Chinatown?

Is there a fundamental connection between the two?

It's like mentioning Mexico. Is it necessary to send someone to interview Taco Bell (fast food restaurant)?

To some extent, Da Tian Dynasty is completely different from Chinatown, okay?!

Another example:

It was also a street news interview on Fox TV.

A Satay host wearing a white shirt interviewed Chinese in Chinatown. This is nothing in itself, but your mother specially interviewed those elderly people who did not understand English, and then asked them what they thought.

What is this Nima called?!

What can old people say when facing the interview camera because they don’t understand English?

They can only respond in polite ways such as silence, smile, nod, etc. However, these responses have become videos of fame by the sinister host.

As soon as the report came out, let alone many overseas Chinese were angry, even many netizens in the Great Heavenly Dynasty scolded the host as a sand sculpture!

(Note: This piece of news was very violent at the time. When the Minister first read it, he was very angry, even if it was discrimination.)

Many foreign news media do not follow the principle of seeking truth from facts. They only agree with the principle of "the result they want" and report false news time and time again.

Therefore, when Alexander launched a news program aimed at "Chinese", "Asian" and "minority" groups and upholding the principle of "fairness and justice", it opened the market in one fell swoop and won the favor of many TV viewers.

This is also one of the few popular programs that UPN TV Network has spontaneously formed without Zhu Ke's participation.

Talents can get attention wherever they go.

"Alexander, you did a good job. If you have the opportunity, it is not impossible to transfer you to the head office." Zhuke praised.

Upon hearing this, Alexander was immediately overjoyed.

UPN TV network is good now, but how can it be inferior to working in the head office?

In the following time, the directors of other UPN departments also reported to Zhu Ke.

Especially the head of the advertising department, the corners of his mouth are cracked.

The popularity of "America's Got Talent" has not only caused the advertising department to take a lot of platform broadcast fees, but also the advertising fees of other channels.

Only half a month after the launch of "America's Got Talent", the advertising fees of other channels also increased by 60% year-on-year.

Good results!

The market value of UPN TV network today is several times higher than when Zhu Ke just acquired it six months ago.Of course, the main reason is that the copyright of "America's Got Talent" is valuable.

To exclude these, CEO Donna is also indispensable. With the popularity of "SpongeBob SquarePants" and her strong personal skills, the overall TV network ratings have risen, the overall operation has become smoother, and she has got rid of the debt-laden situation before the acquisition.

"It is worthy of being the woman who can be the president of Universal Pictures in the original time and space. Even if her current ability is not up to her peak, it is definitely not bad. It is completely better than many people in the same industry."

While Zhu Ke sighed, he also has reason to believe that UPN will definitely become more and more brilliant in the American cable television field in the days to come.

......

The third stop of the tour: Water World Animation Studio.

It was originally an animation department under Wald Pictures, but thanks to the achievements of "SpongeBob SquarePants" and Zhu Ke's plan for the future, it became independent and became a subsidiary of Golden Dawn Entertainment Group. .

During his tour of the Water World Animation Studio, Zhu Ke found a lot of newcomers he hadn't seen, hundreds of strange faces.

"Everyone, I am your boss, Zucker Wald!"

"Many of you are old people who joined the studio at the beginning of its establishment, and there are hundreds of newcomers who have joined recently, but I want to tell you that no matter how long you have been employed, no matter where you are from, as long as you have ideas and If you have the ability, then you will be able to succeed in Water World Animation Studio!"

"Have you seen the results of SpongeBob Squarepants?"

"It has achieved a 3% audience rating, and within a week after the end of each episode of the show, it can be viewed by 60 million people. It is now the ace animation in American TV animation series!"

"But, are you all satisfied?!"

"I tell you, this is not our end!"

"The big screen of the theater, the box office charts in North America, and the global sensational movie animation, it is our goal!"

""Finding Nemo"!"

"Yes, I'm talking about "Finding Nemo". It is our first feature-length 3D computer animation. What we have to do now is to complete it together!"

"Think about it, guys. As long as it is done, then the dollar, reputation, etc. will all follow!"

An inspirational speech is enough to make many new people who have joined the animation studio excited for several days.

However, these are actually useless.

The main reason is that Zhuke has thought about mouth addiction.

Say a thousand words and ten thousand, no matter how good you talk, there is no real dollar.Of course, if Zucker has the fascination ability like a German mustache, it definitely works.However, if Zhu Ke has that kind of ability, he must be a politician early in the morning.

"" The first update is sent.

Thanks to the book friend Taizong of the Westward Journey for giving another reward.
