Hollywood starts with animation

Chapter 278 "Finding Nemo"

Water world animation.

"Yes, pretty perfect!"

"The ocean scenery, the landforms of the seabed, the colorful coral reefs, the lush and swaying water plants, and the groups of lovely marine creatures, really make people linger."

"The last time I watched it, there was no dubbing and the soundtrack seemed a little scarce. This time the film was completed and it didn't disappoint me!"

"Steven, David, your work has been outstanding!"

"The success of "Finding Nemo", you are the best!"

"Stephen, tell all the employees in Group 3 that their bonus this month will increase by 50%. After the movie is released, I will send them a big red envelope!"

After Zhu Ke finished watching "Finding Nemo", he was in a good mood.

Immediately, it was promised bonuses and red envelopes, and the vibe of "Zuke the stingy" disappeared.Zhu Ke really knows the future potential of the film too.

Stephen Solenberg and David Messer are also very happy.

The Boss' praise means that their efforts have been seen!

At the same time, striving for more benefits for subordinate employees is also one of the management's tasks.

Of course, after the movie is released, it has achieved high box office results and sold peripheral products. Only then can their value be more reflected!

After 1 hour.

Steven Solenberg convened the senior managers of Water World Animation for a concentrated meeting.

Zhu Ke also attended.

"Boss, according to our plan, in late May, in 9 major American cities including Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, New York, Miami, etc., a preview of "Finding Nemo" will be held, and some Hollywood figures and movie audiences will be invited to watch in advance. shadow;"

"In early June, contact mainstream North American theaters such as Emperor Entertainment, Ximanke, and AMC Entertainment to participate in the screening, and finalize the release and screening contract;"

"In mid-June, the retail and game development copyrights of "Finding Nemo" will be authorized for sale."

"The movie is expected to be released nationwide in the end of July and early August!"

Stephen Solenberg, president of Water World Animation, said slowly.

Zhu Ke and everyone present also nodded frequently.

"Okay, it's scheduled to be released at the end of July and early August. Time is a bit tight, so everyone has to work harder." Zhu Ke said solemnly.

"Yes, boss." Everyone responded.

In fact, Zhu Ke's original plan was to arrange for the "Finding Nemo" movie to be released on Thanksgiving in November.

However, the plan cannot keep up with the changes!

Pixar Animation has announced recently that "Toy Story 2" is scheduled to be released on Thanksgiving this year.

Man, that's "Toy Story 2"!

The first part of the "Toy Story" series is the world's first fully computer-produced animated feature film. It was released on Thanksgiving Day in 1995. Once it was launched, it shocked the whole world and achieved a North American box office of $192 million. The global box office is as high as 360 million US dollars.And was the champion of the North American box office rankings in 1995!

It is no exaggeration to say that the "Toy Story" series of animations have a huge number of fan audiences worldwide.

The second film "Toy Story", which took four years, can be said to have greatly carried the expectations of movie fans.

eagerly!

Let me ask, how does "Finding Nemo" compete with "Toy Story 2"?

Even if "Finding Nemo" is excellent, Zhu Ke does not want them to be released on the same schedule, no matter what the result is, it will greatly hurt the film's box office.

"The movie will be released in the summer, and I will explain to Victor."

Zhu Klang said: "Stephen and David, you are the project leaders. How to communicate with Wald Pictures, Golden Dawn Television Group, Publishing Group, and Music Company to better distribute "Finding Nemo"? See the plan in a short time."

Stephen nodded: "No problem."

David: "Wrap it on me."

Time is tight and the task is heavy!

If it weren't for Pixar's "Toy Story 2", then everyone would not be nervous and busy.

.......

At the end of the water world animation trip, Zhu Ke went to the LinkedIn company located in the same building.

"Jeff Weiner, I plan to relocate LinkedIn from Silicon Valley to Seattle. What do you think?"

The first words Zhuke said surprised LinkedIn president Jeff Weiner.

Jeff Weiner frowned and said: "Boss, is it because the Seattle local government has given many support policies?"

In the past few days, the Seattle local government announced support policies for the Internet industry and the tertiary industry. Bank interest rate cuts, government support, lower state taxes, corporate subsidies, and other policies have absolutely nothing to do with the Internet industry. Great attraction.

"Yes, I decided to relocate the LinkedIn company because of lower state taxes and more support." Zhu Ke admitted.

Jeff thought.

Ten seconds later, Jeff said, "The key is how long this favorable policy of the Seattle local government can be implemented?"

The policies of various parts of the United States, like those of the federal government, are criticized for "changing orders at night".

God knows that after the relocation of LinkedIn, the government policy changed?

"I think this policy will last, and it will save us a lot of corporate taxes." Zhu Ke laughed.

Seattle!

Boeing Company, the world's largest aerospace manufacturing and R&D company;

Amazon, the world-famous online shopping mall;

Microsoft, the world's number one computer system software provider;

Starbucks, the world's largest coffee chain;

The addresses of their headquarters are all located in Seattle, for no other reason, just because of the favorable policies of the Seattle local government.

Until 2020, Amazon Mall is still leading the federal government's grants for small and medium-sized enterprises, which are also related to Seattle's local policies.

"I'm greedy!"

Zhuke also wants to try this policy.

In the end, under Zhuke's persuasion, Jeff Weiner, the president of LinkedIn, agreed with the decision to move to Seattle.

"It's okay to relocate to Seattle. With the gradual expansion of LinkedIn, the Wald building is obviously not enough, and it needs to share a building with Water World Animation, which seems too crowded." Jeff Wei Na said.

.......

The next day.

Not long after Zhu Ke got up, he heard a call from his private lawyer Zhang Wei.

"Boss, I have done what you entrusted to me. Do you have time now?" Zhang Wei's voice came over the phone.

"If you have time, come to my house now." Zhu Ke said.

Zhuke hung up and clenched his fists severely.

"Today I finally figured out how much my assets are."

That's right, what Zhu Ke entrusted to Zhang Wei was to calculate and count Zhu Ke's existing assets.

"" The first update is sent.
