Hollywood starts with animation

Chapter 310: Zhu Ke Visits Overseas to Promote Movies

In late August.

Zhu Ke took a group of people and took the flight to overseas. The purpose was naturally to better publicize the animated film "Finding Nemo".

The list of accompanying persons is as follows:

Former Fox CEO and current President of Wald Pictures: Bill McNick;

Vice President of Water World Animation and one of the directors of "Finding Nemo": David Messer;

President of the chain stores around SpongeBob Squarepants house and director of Jin Shuguang's family entertainment department: Taro Hashimoto;

Wait, there are 17 people in total.

Of course, if Zhu Ke's security team is added, the number is bound to be more than a dozen people.

At the same time, Alexander, Director of the President's Office and Chief Assistant to the Chairman of Jinshuguang Group, arrived in London, England two days in advance to act as a pawn.

"This time everyone will be wronged. After a few months, everyone will go to Europe to promote the film. You can take our company's own plane."

In the first-class cabin of the flight, Zhu Klang said.

Own plane?!

"Boss, you are referring to the ultra-medium business jet that you ordered with Gulfstream in June 1998, the Gulfstream G200, which is currently one of the most luxurious business jets in the world." David Messelton The eyes lit up.

"Yes, that's it. It will be delivered at the end of October this year." Zhu Ke laughed.

When the voice fell, everyone present was very happy.

Who is waiting to see the public flight with his own company’s plane?

What's more, that is the Gulfstream G200!

The price alone is as high as 25 million U.S. dollars. If luxury interiors are added, it will inevitably add several million U.S. dollars.

How does the comfort level of a public flight plane compare?

Bill McNick suddenly said: "I have never taken a company-owned airplane a few times."

"You come here less, old man!"

Zhu Ke immediately laughed and scolded: "When you were the CEO of Fox Pictures, you used to fly on the exclusive plane of Fox Pictures."

"Don't mention it, don't mention it!" Old Bill waved his hand quickly.

Old Bill is pretending to be coercive with everyone.

For a while, everyone in the cabin laughed.

This time to go overseas to promote the "Finding Nemo" movie, Zhu Ke must go!

Up to now, although Wald Pictures has built an overseas distribution network, it has only completed the initial construction. The foundation is too poor and the shelf is very fragile.Once someone who has the intention to target it, it will inevitably cause huge lethality.

Have to pay attention!

"I have to go personally and hold down those greedy guys." Zhu Ke thought to himself.

A few months ago, "My Grand Greek Wedding", "300 Spartan Warriors", and "Blair the Witch" were released overseas. The local snakes from overseas countries and regions bullied Wald Pictures." Young", make small moves in it.

As far as Zhu Ke knows, the box office share they withheld, which should have belonged to Wald Pictures, amounted to more than 13 million U.S. dollars.

"How greedy is this~"

"These people's shameless greedy behavior is almost blatant!"

They forced Zhuke to come in person.They are extremely arrogant, annoyed Zhu Ke!

Old Bill, Taro Hashimoto, David Messer and others accompanied him, and they all had their own roles.

Bill McNick is the president of Wald Pictures, and he also served as the CEO of 20th Century Fox Pictures. He has been in Hollywood for decades and has experienced countless ups and downs. He has a certain reputation worldwide. , The network is extremely wide.

His participation can ensure that Finding Nemo is better publicized in overseas countries and regions.

The role of David Messer is also huge!

He is one of the directors of "Finding Nemo", and his position in the Water World Animation Company is second only to CEO Stephen Solenberg.

Every business needs a facade, especially for entertainment companies.

There is no doubt that he, David Messer, is a face and card figure launched by Zucker.

Someone may say: "Don't you worry that he will switch to another company after he gets hot?"

Ha ha!

Student Zhu Ke is very relieved.

Option awards and the company's listing of allotted shares are all Zhuke's methods of using David Messer.

Job-hopping, are you willing to get these hard-earned things?

Taro Hashimoto, the president of the chain stores around SpongeBob Squarepants and the director of the Jin Shuguang family entertainment department.

"During the IPO of Water World Animation, I know that you little devil has ideas and is unwilling."

"But, what can you do?!"

Zhu Ke turned aside Taro Hashimoto, who was sitting tightly not far away, and squinted his eyes.

Taro Hashimoto, he is a very aggressive person, and he can be called the most aggressive person in the Golden Dawn Entertainment Group.At the same time, he is also a very ambitious person.

Ms. Donna of the TV Group, Old Bill of Wald Pictures, and even Group CEO Victor, Taro Hashimoto is quite disdainful.

"All I want is your aggressiveness!"

"Little devil, you honestly become a knife in my hand, and constantly clamp down and warn those executives."

Zhu Ke knows Taro Hashimoto as a man.

He is a vicious dog Zhuke put in the flock to balance the group.

Doesn't Hashimoto Taro himself know?

Of course he knows!

He is an extremely smart guy, he voluntarily enters the urn, willing to be a lackey.In his words: "As long as the goal can be achieved, all means are necessary for the road to success."

After a few hours...

The flight arrived in London.

"Boss, it's 6pm local time in London. I have prepared the hotel for everyone. Everything can start tomorrow."

As soon as he arrived at the London airport, Alexander took several people from the two London branches and picked him up here.

"Okay. You do things, I don't worry!" Zhu Ke smiled.

More than two hours later.

David Messer suddenly came to Zucker’s hotel suite and said, “Boss, I’m afraid I won’t sleep peacefully tonight. I just received a call from Mr. Lyman’s assistant.”

Lyman?

Zhu Ke moved with a look, and asked, "The Lehmann Schwyz who is one of Europe's largest distributors of movie peripheral products and has a net worth of tens of billions of dollars?"

"Yes!"

David Messer shrugged and said with a smile: "Mr. Lyman not only invited me, but also Taro Hashimoto. Of course, the two of us are just pawns, and the person he really wants to meet is actually you, the boss."

Zhu Ke pondered for more than ten seconds, and said: "I have long wanted to meet him. If we can finalize the cooperation agreement with him for peripheral products, although we will give out some of the benefits, it will speed up our layout in Europe, which is feasible! "

agreed!

The advantages outweigh the disadvantages, and Zhuke has no reason to disagree.

"Boom boom boom~"

At this moment, Alexander knocked on the door of Zucker's suite.

"Boss, this is the specific list of companies that are greedy for ink and withhold our $13 million in funds for no reason." Alexander submitted a document to Zhuke.

Zhuke looked at the list with a sullen expression on his face.

Lines of numbers that stimulate the eye!

It's all his mother's money!

Too much deception!

Zhu Keqiang resisted his anger and said, "Alexander, you will ask them to have dinner in London three days later. After ITV's TV interview is over, I must deal with them fiercely. Hmph, I'm really muddled~ !"

"" The first update is sent.

The minister did not update yesterday.I drank too much at noon, and I didn’t slow down in the evening.Make up today.
