Evan Bell and Brad Gray, the two juniors, chatted, and Steven Spielberg got the siege, and when he faced Doug Morris again, he was even more at ease. Jeff - Jobs and Michael - Inas did not speak again, Steve - Jobs came over and talked to Evan Bell, Michael - Inas went over to talk to Tiger Woods. Eden Hudson walked over to Steven Spielberg and chimed in, apparently not wanting to push Doug Morris any further.
It's just pity Tiger Woods, the golf professional, among these big-mouthed bigwig-level figures, who are talking about the entertainment industry again, but fell silent.
In fact, Evan Bell is indeed quite interested in Brad Gray. Paramount Pictures, which was all-powerful at the time, fell into an abyss in the past two years - not only the bottom, but Brad - After Gray took over, although he did not regain the peak of the year, he allowed Paramount Pictures to recover little by little. After the acquisition of DreamWorks, Paramount led by Brad Gray not only has commercial blockbusters such as "Transformers" and "Iron Man", but also "Rango", "Hugo" and "Interstellar". "Trek", "Lovely Bones", "In the Clouds" and other word-of-mouth masterpieces appeared, and successfully ushered in their centennial birthday in 2012. It can be said that Brad - Gray is the most important.
Similar to Evan Bell, but also different, Brad Gray is aggressive. He has a tireless pursuit of commercial blockbusters. Of course, this is also determined by a large-scale company like Paramount Pictures. They must make big moves To attract shareholders and attract the interest of the media; at the same time, Brad Gray is also wise, he is not stingy with low-cost commercial films, on the contrary, he will invest a lot of energy in these works every year.
same. Brad Gray also has a very good impression of Evan Bell. Although the last time Paramount and Evan Bell had passed by was "The Departed", the current eleven work Room is indeed the object that major film companies hope to make good friends with.
but. Evan Bell and Brad Gray only chatted for a while before seeing Michael Inas and Doug Morris turn and leave. Evan Bell looked at the green not far away. Before they hit the green, the two big guys left, either angry or in a hurry. In Evan Bell's view, it should be the latter. only. Whether Michael Enas discovered the mutiny at Disney or Doug Morris went back to report to Universal Studios head Ron Mayer remains to be seen.
Steven Spielberg also seemed a little absent-minded, and a five-yard putt went too far. Evan Bell guessed that it was more or less related to Ron Mayer. After the hole, he and Brad Gray also left, and the official line was that they were going to the seventh hole. But in Evan Bell's view, not necessarily.
finally. Only Evan Bell, Eden Hudson, Steve Jobs and Tiger Woods remain. Tiger Woods breathed a sigh of relief after seeing everyone dispersed. "Huh. This is the game I sweat the most."
"Hehe, Woods, this is not a game. As long as I stand on this field, it can't be a game. It's not even a practice game." Evan Bell's self-deprecating words made everyone laugh. Evan Bell's performance really shows the gap between a novice and the world's top masters.
Today's trip to Canyon Manor really didn't come in vain. Universal Music, led by Doug Morris, seems to be hostile to Eleven Studios, even in the face of interests. Not only Canada, but also DreamWorks and Disney. The acquisition of DreamWorks, Paramount, and Universal Pictures involves a lot of things, and it is estimated that it involves the mutual interests of several big labels. If utube wants to get the film company to authorize it in the future, there is a long way to go. Michael Enas' days at Disney are running out, and Disney's turmoil means Pixar's opportunity is close at hand.
When going to the fifteenth hole. Evan Bell and Steve Jobs sat in a cart, and Eden Hudson and Tiger Woods went in the same car.
After getting in the car, Evan Bell smiled and said, "How about you, are you interested in selling Pixar to Eleven Studios?"
Steve Jobs glanced at Evan Bell when he heard such direct words. This is the third time Evan Bell has mentioned cooperation, but it is the first time that he has expressed his willingness to acquire it so clearly. Steve Jobs saw the calmness and calmness on Evan Bell's face, but he couldn't find what he wanted to see, so he replied, "Are you sure?"
Evan Bell smiled, "Of course, the conditions have been listed." In fact, I came to Canyon Manor today. Although Eden Hudson said that he might meet Steve Jobs, Evan Bell originally There is no plan to talk about the acquisition of Pixar, Universal Music is the priority, but after this series of changes, including just Steve Jobs and Michael Inas. Evan Bell knew this was his best chance.
At this point, Steve Jobs' impression of Disney hit rock bottom. After that, Robert Iger will use his "humility and polite charisma" to bring Steve Jobs back to the negotiating table. At that time, Studio Eleven will be passively beaten, and Evan Bell must take the initiative. strike. Moreover, the current Eleven Studio is different from the last time when we mentioned cooperation.
Evan Bell was just listening to the big guys fighting, but he was also turning his mind, so after he finished speaking, he saw the listening look on Steve Jobs' face, and went on to say "Eleventh work. We have no shares in the studio, and we are willing to acquire Pixar with cash and a cooperation plan. We can discuss the specific conditions. The cooperation plan includes utube channel cooperation, Facebook further promotion model cooperation, and I am willing to work with Apple to persuade, cbs and fox, put their videos on itunes to authorize paid downloads. Of course, in addition to this, there are video sharing licenses from the record companies we currently have, and we are also willing to persuade major companies to provide paid downloads on itunes download."
Evan Bell's sentence is short, but the amount of information is very large. Steve Jobs's mind quickly clarified the idea, and the current conditions of Eleven Studio are very clear: Pixar can have enough autonomy in the production of works; distribution channels have been established - although only development In the preliminary stage, it has already occupied an advantage in second-tier film companies; the last is resources, which includes the resources of Eleven Studio, the cooperation resources of utube and Facebook, and the cooperation plans of major TV stations and film companies.
In fact, Steve Jobs considered Disney for these three reasons: money, distribution channels, and resources. Now, these three Eleven studios have given enough temptation. Allure - a reduced version.
In terms of money, it is naturally difficult for Eleven Studios to compete with Disney; not to mention distribution channels, Disney is one of the companies with the largest distribution channels in North America; in terms of resources, Disney has accumulated enough wealth in the past century.
However, the advantages of Eleven Studio are also obvious. It is beneficial to the future development of Pixar, the resources are fresh and novel, and most importantly, the huge network resources. Steve Jobs knew very well that the development potential after Youtube and Facebook, if it can succeed, then the resources born by the Internet are definitely not weaker than Disney.
"What is the channel of utube, tell me." Steve Jobs grabbed the core point and took it out on its own. It's not the first time Evan Bell has worked with Steve Jobs, and it's no surprise that he has spoken out about his vision for the future of Youtube.
Steve Jobs never imagined that Evan Bell's plan was so grand. After establishing the grassroots resources of Youtube, the quality of the video website was also developed, and even the concept of "mobile TV" was completely brought. stand up. Steve Jobs already has a vague concept of ne. After Evan Bell's reminder, it was suddenly lit up. If utube can be connected to a mobile device, then the benefits are really endless. .
Evan Bell seemed to be able to read the mind of Steve Jobs, he said with a smile, "If you can create a mobile device, such as a mobile phone, or an mp3 with a screen, and then connect to a communication provider or a wireless network, You can surf the Internet and watch utube anytime, anywhere, so this is the real source of profit.”
Evan Bell's words made Steve Jobs's eyes hidden behind his glasses suddenly narrowed This is the second time that Steve Jobs has faced such a face-to-face since the two met Evan Bell. The first time was when Evan Bell proposed the commercialization of digital music. But Steve Jobs quickly hid his thoughts. "Oh, mobile, what's the idea, just say it and listen."
Evan Bell laughed. "In this era, creativity is money. If you want, we can sit down and talk slowly." He was declining.
Steve Jobs couldn't help but smile, thinking to himself, sly guy. At present, Steve Jobs has a vague concept of ne, which is naturally not as clear as Evan Bell's idea. But he will not blindly agree to sell Pixar just for an idea.
However, now Eleven Studios does have the capital to sit down and talk. Steve Jobs thinks that Evan Bell can't be more right when he said, "Maybe Disney's price will be higher than Eleven Studios, Five hundred million? One billion? That's a lot of money, but Disney certainly won't be able to make a decision in a short time, and the board is not so good at talking."
