Chapter 401

DreamWorks Animation.

"Welcome! welcome! Welcome to my dearest friend, Jack Wald

On this day, Zhuke was invited to DreamWorks Animation. As soon as he arrived, he was warmly received by Jeffrey carsenberg, President of DreamWorks Animation.

"Oh, it's OK after the battle, but we are old friends. It doesn't matter if we have less empty head and brain." Zhuke looks at the employees of DreamWorks Animation and greets himself one after another. He is also enthusiastic immediately.

"How can we say it's a false head?"

"That's what you mean, and we all welcome you," Jeffrey carsenberg said with a smile

Zucker waved his hand.

Zucker didn't believe a word of kasenberg's words.

Not long.

Zucker followed karsenberg to visit DreamWorks Animation.

It has to be said that although the technical level of DreamWorks Animation is inferior to jobs' Pixar Animation at present, its enterprising spirit is absolutely high.

"You're right. Our current technical level is not as good as Pixar Animation, but our technology is not bad. We have more than 90 people who are just dedicated to the research and development of new technology, which is definitely not inferior to Pixar Animation. " Jeffrey carsenberg said with pride.

Zucker nodded in agreement.

New technology R & D personnel are absolutely the core of an animation company.

This is a trade secret, but also an animation company can go further confidence!

"Water lines, hair, light and shade, character expression capture... All of these we have done very well, absolutely the top level in the industry!" Kasenberg once again introduced.

Zucker could not help but look envious.

Inside information!

Zucker's water world animation studio was founded later than jobs' Pixar Animation and carsenberg's DreamWorks Animation. There is a big gap between them in terms of talent reserve and training.

"Jeffery, to be honest with you, if it wasn't for the agreement between my water world animation and jobs, well, the agreement on mutual technical assistance, the technical level of water world animation would definitely fall behind the level of your times." He sighed.

Carsenberg: "the

Well, this moment's carsenberg is delicious!

Before the release of "Nemo" and before the signing of the technical mutual assistance agreement between water world animation and Pixar, water world animation is a few blocks away from DreamWorks Animation!

Well, even if the water world animation has "piggy page" and "SpongeBob SquarePants" two trump animation dramas.

But now?

Water world animation is catching up!

Not only that, water world animation also successfully listed in the U.S. stock market, with a market value of more than 1.2 billion U.S. dollars, which makes carsenberg in countless nights, envy!

"Zucker, you are a lucky guy ~"

I can't help but sigh.

After all, the strength of water world animation has surpassed DreamWorks Animation. In the field of computer animation, whether in terms of scale, box office or influence, Zucker's water world animation ranks second in the United States, second only to jobs' Pixar Animation.

He's envious!

"Ha ha!"

"Don't envy me," Chuck said with a smile. The strength of your DreamWorks Animation is obvious to all. What you lack is an opportunity. Well, I believe this day will not be far away. "

Not far?

How far is that!

Just a few months ago, DreamWorks Animation's "venture into the golden city" was successfully released in North America.

It is an ambitious work of DreamWorks Animation!

The success of the production alone is as high as 78 million US dollars, and the number of employees involved in the animation film is as high as 350, which took more than two years to elaborate and complete.

"Going to the golden city will surpass Pixar's Toy Story 2 and underwater animation. I firmly believe that DreamWorks Animation is the number one animation company in the United States."

"Yes, I firmly believe that... We are the first!"

This is a declaration made by carsenberg at the premiere of the golden city.

At that time, carsenberg was so high spirited~

However

"Brave gold city" box office fiasco!

Its box office performance in the first weekend of its three-day release was only $12.5 million;

Up to now, the animated film has been released for two months, and has only won less than $50 million in the North American market. Well, its final box office is worth 50 million dollars at most.

In terms of overseas market, no one cares about it.

"It doesn't matter if we lose the box office. We still have the peripheral authorization and the DVD and video market under the cable."

What happened?

It's not as good as the box office!

The surrounding popularity of "venture into the golden city" is worse than that of "Toy Story 1" released a few years ago. Man, you know, Toy Story 1 was a movie a few years ago.

DreamWorks Animation, dream broken!

A few months ago, the high spirited Jeffrey carsenberg has become a laughing stock in the industry. During this period, the media reporters and film critics are even more cynical.

The biggest bright spot is also Michael Eisner, the chairman of Disney, who drove Jeffery out of Disney.

Ha ha, they are old enemies!

Michael Eisner said in public: "Jeffrey carsenberg is an incompetent loser! I didn't drive him away when he left Disney, but his talent didn't match the great Disney ~ "

When casenberg saw the news, he almost ran away on the spot.

.......

Casenberg looked at Zucker and said in a deep voice, "my dearest friend, the fiasco of the golden city is not only caused by the animation itself, but also by the strangulation of other companies!"

"Hollywood six." Chuck said softly.

"That's right!"

"Before the release of the Golden City, we had already signed a contract with Emperor Entertainment, but... On the third day before the release, Emperor Entertainment broke the contract," he said

Hearing the speech, Zhuke was surprised and said, "isn't paramount always responsible for your distribution? How dare Emperor Entertainment break the contract unilaterally? "

I can't help but think that Zucker is not surprised.

DreamWorks Animation's distribution business is accepted by paramount, one of Hollywood's six largest animation companies!

In today's situation of independent cinema market, the cinema is in a weak position and absolutely dare not offend the six major Hollywood companies.

"We didn't give it to paramount for the release of the Golden City, but it was undertaken by DreamWorks group alone," kasenberg said with a smile

Smell speech, Zhu Ke immediately rolled a white eye.

Get~

This must be targeted!

"You played with paramount, paramount was angry, and immediately let the cinema party do you. It's not a matter of course!" Chuck said.

For this reason, Zucker finally understood the purpose of inviting Zucker to DreamWorks.

He asked for help from Zucker!

"The first watch" is presented.
