Hollywood starts with animation

Tuesday, November 23.

It was only two days before Thanksgiving in 1999.

On this day, many media reporters in the United States, like a cat smelling fishy, ​​came to Pixar Animation.

"Have you heard the news?" Hoplin, a female reporter of the New York Times, asked a male reporter next to her.

"Hoplin, isn't this bullshit you're talking about? Isn't it true news, will I come all the way from Hawaii?" the male reporter pouted.

Nearly a hundred people, remembering and photographers present, were whispering to each other at the press conference, a little impatient.

After all, Pixar Animation will cooperate with Water World Animation, which is definitely a big event that shocked the field of animation.

"These two animation companies are cooperating. It is estimated that the executives of DreamWorks Animation will definitely not sleep in the near future."

"Hehe, it must be so."

"I vaguely remember that three months ago, I interviewed Mr. Jeffrey Katzenberg of DreamWorks Animation. He vowed to say that their new work "Brave the Golden City" animation will be on Thanksgiving this year. On the schedule, I had a showdown with Pixar's "Toy Story 2", but now... he is counseled."

"David, I also interviewed Jeffrey Katzenberg about this matter. Now Pixar's "Toy Story 2" is released as scheduled on Thanksgiving, and what about them? DreamWorks unexpectedly released "Brave to the Golden City" The date is moved to tomorrow in March, tusk tusk~ this is afraid of Pixar animation!"

"Water World Animation and Pixar Animation are both listed companies and leaders in the animation field. The two companies are now going to develop in-depth cooperation. This must be a major event affecting the animation landscape!"

Everyone talked a lot.

Not long after...

John Lasseter, vice president of Pixar Animation and well-known animation director;

Stephen Solenberg, President of Water World Animation and well-known animation director;

The two appeared together.

Well, to be precise, they came together talking and laughing.

"Dear media reporters, fellow citizens in the industry, gentlemen and ladies, good morning."

Facing a group of media reporters, Lasseter said loudly: "The news you have received is not wrong. The purpose of this press conference today is to inform everyone, to inform the entire United States, and the people of the world. From now on, I Fang Pixar Animation will start a series of cooperation in Water World Animation, both in the field of project and technology, and will cooperate closely."

The voice fell.

Suddenly, one stone caused a thousand waves!

Although everyone present had their own news channels and many speculations, they were still surprised when things really came out of Lasseter.

Man, this is Pixar and Water World!

In addition to Disney Animation, which is a subsidiary of the veteran Disney Group, which is also a little bit more powerful, looking at the current American animation field, who can compete with the cooperation between Pixar and Water World Animation?

Not even DreamWorks Animation!

"Is this true?!" a reporter couldn't help but yelled.

"Ha ha!"

On the podium, Stephen Solenberg, president of Water World Animation, took the microphone and smiled at everyone: "Of course this is true. How dare we make a joke on such an important thing? Starting today, we will talk to Pixar Animation, start a series of in-depth cooperation."

"Hiss~"

A reporter couldn't help but took a breath, clenched his fist, and said with excitement: "This is really big news!"

The press conference ended very quickly, and the media reporters present walked faster.

They want to rush the manuscript!

They are eager to make this news public in the shortest possible time.

.......

The conference ended in less than an hour.

Many of the media newspapers that participated in the press conference today published news for the first time.

"Los Angeles Entertainment News" published an article: "The cooperation between two great companies-will be even greater!"

"California Entertainment News" published an article: "It is foreseeable: Water World Animation's share price will rise again."

These two media newspapers can be regarded as the hardcore lackeys of Zhu Ke, and naturally they will not miss this big news.

The actions of other media are not bad.

The New York Times published an article: “In the field of computer animation, Pixar Animation can be called No. 1 and Water World Animation is No. 3, second only to DreamWorks Animation, which is ranked No. 2, but now Pixar and Water World are working together. It can be imagined that in the near future, Water World Animation will surpass DreamWorks Animation!"

The news came to light soon, as expected!

Jeffrey Katzenberg of DreamWorks, stunned!

The other two of the Big Three, Spielberg and David Geffen, also rushed to DreamWorks Animation.

"Can you count it?"

"Are you two satisfied now?"

"I told you earlier that DreamWorks Animation should be listed independently, but you don't listen. I hope that the group will be listed as a whole!"

"Now that Water World and Pixar are cooperating, where should we go for DreamWorks Animation?"

"Don't say anything else, just in terms of funds, the two of them can throw us all the way~"

Jeffrey Katzenberg’s long backlog of anger erupted at this moment, like a volcanic eruption, and could not stop.

He is really very annoyed!

"If DreamWorks Animation is now a listed company, then even if Pixar and Water World Animation cooperate, we are not without a comparison, but now? We don't accompany others to lift shoes!!!"

Jeffrey Katzenberg yelled at the two Spielberg.

Spielberg: "......"

David Geffen: "......"

The two were speechless. In fact, they saw the Water World animation go on the market first, and they were already regretful after they had successfully harvested the leeks last time.Now, this fact is ruthlessly torn apart by Katzenberg, and the two are quite embarrassed.

Water World Animation and Pixar Animation have launched an in-depth cooperation. DreamWorks Animation is horrified, and other small and medium animation companies in the United States are almost desperate to death.

Even the Blue Sky Studio, with Fox Pictures backing up, fell into a dead silence at the moment after learning the news.

"The two of them work together, this is to kill our rhythm!" Chris Witch gritted his teeth.

Carlos Sardanha, who is also the director of "Ice Age", also sighed: "Don't say you are surprised. Just now, Mr. Murdoch called me personally and said that we will give us more in the future. support."

What about Murdoch?!

Hearing this, everyone in the Blue Sky Studio couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Water World Animation and Pixar Animation have joined forces. If they say they are not worried, it is definitely a lie.But with the support of media tycoon and movie tycoon Murdoch, they are not without the power of a fight.

.......

Water world animation.

Zhuke looked at the excited David Messer and other Waterworld animation employees, and couldn't help asking: "Is Pixar's technology fun?"

"Uh?"

David Messer was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed: "Boss, this is quite enjoyable! Last time I participated in the premiere of "Toy Story 2", I was full of envy for Pixar's technical level."

An executive couldn’t help but echo: “Their technology is too good. In the fields of water pattern, hair, shading, emotional simulation... these fields, it has surpassed our water world animation for at least 3 to 5 years. I have to say that they are really good."

David Messer said again: "Boss, if we have these advanced technologies early, then our "Finding Nemo" will be even better."

Everyone in Water World Animation started to discuss it, and their expressions were extremely excited.

Seeing this situation, Zhu Ke couldn't help feeling proud.

Zhuke supported Jobs' decision in Apple, and the content of his exchange of interests is impressively advanced technology owned by Pixar Animation.

There is no doubt that with the technical support of Pixar Animation, the future of Water World Animation will be brighter!

Similarly, Pixar Animation also has great benefits.

We must know that although Pixar Animation is very successful at this stage, they have produced one excellent animation film after another, but they have signed a series of terms called "being power and humiliating the country" with the Disney Group at the time of the trough, giving up a lot of Benefit to Disney.

Is Pixar willing?

Was Jobs willing himself?

Of course not reconciled!

They are now cooperating with Zhu Ke, fully embracing the self-respect of the thieves, hoping to draw more benefits from Disney in the future.

Therefore, the cooperation between the two companies is really a win-win cooperation.
