Chapter 201： Compensation is better than deficit

Chapter 201 Compensation is Better than Debt

Jobs is a clear-headed businessman, of course he can't act "recklessly" like Dunn.

Now, in the 21st century, major Hollywood companies have begun to perceive the prospect of animated films. Warner and Sony have also created their own animation departments. Fox has taken the lead by acquiring Blue Sky Animation Studio, which will soon be Launched a fully computer-generated animation.

However, looking at the entire Hollywood, the development of the animation industry, the most powerful is Disney!

Don't look at the popularity of Disney's cartoons in recent years, but after all, Disney has been engaged in cartoons for decades, and has accumulated a lot of experience and resources.

In particular, Disney has more and wider promotion channels, from Disneyland, to Disney Channel, and even the "Disney" brand, which in many cases represents cartoons.

So even if Jobs and Michael Eisner had a rocky relationship, Disney remained an important partner for Pixar.

The root cause is not a paper contract, but Disney's ability.

Dunn wants to buy out the contract between Pixar and Disney, which is of course not in the interest of Pixar, even if Dunn pays, it won't work!

Besides Disney, which other film company can bring Pixar animation to the world? And there are many mature peripheral copyright development, the more channels, the more benefits.

The conversation between the two has ended, and the two have not reached an agreement on the positioning of Pixar.

Fortunately, Apple's shareholder meeting will be held at the end of the month.

There is still half a month, Jobs can find an opportunity to talk to Dunn again.

In the current box office market, "Spider-Man" continues to be high-profile, Fox's "Titan a.e." has dropped to 500 theaters, and the film placement rate is also as low as 2. Disney's "Sixty Seconds" fared slightly better, but with the arrival of more blockbusters in July, the market share has also dropped significantly.

Now, the most popular movie on the market is still "Spider-Man", entering its fourth week, the film rate is still as high as 35. Then came the Warners disaster blockbuster "Perfect Storm," and Miramax's "Scream."

Especially "Scream", it simply makes Disney proud!

This horror film, with an investment of less than $2,000, was released on July 7. Under the impact of "Spider-Man", the box office still reached $48.3 million in the first week, ranking second only to "Spider-Man" in the weekly box office. second.

Although "Sixty Seconds" failed miserably at the box office, Miramax's "Scream" saved a lot of face for Disney.

So that Harvey Weinstein has been very high-profile recently, and he has a tendency to grab headlines with Dunn.

Although Miramax is a subsidiary of Disney, it operates independently and is not managed by the production department, so the success of "Scream" has nothing to do with Disney's production department chairman Joe Ruth!

Even more of a mockery.

Harvey Weinstein's $19 million horror film "Scream" was a big success in the summer, but Joe Ruth's $90 million commercial blockbuster "Sixty Seconds" failed miserably.

Now, Joe Ruth is under a lot of pressure, and he may face the end of being fired at any time. Of course, he is not reconciled!

"Sixty Seconds" is already a piece of dead meat, there is no help, and Joe Ruth has put his hope in the next movie - "Undead" directed by Nate Shyamalan!

Last year, "The Sixth Sense of Spirituality" shook the world, and even completely overwhelmed "Wedding Crashers" supervised by Dunn.

Don't movie fans like horror and thriller genres?

Yes, go watch "Undead"!

The suspenseful thriller starring Samuel L. Jackson and Bruce Willis has completed filming and is now in post-production, scheduled for November 15.

Joe Ruth was under too much pressure, with the Sixty Seconds fiasco up front and Michael Eisner ranting in the back. He understands that if Michael Eisner is benevolent and intends to give him another chance at redemption, then the only hope is "Undead"!

Natalie has only received one movie this year, George Lucas's "Star Wars Episode 2", continuing to play Queen Amidala. The role is not too much, and the filming has now been basically completed.

Originally Hilda Queli also planned to let her take a movie called "Supermodel", but Dunn rejected it.

Rather than lack, Dunn does not allow Natalie to make bad films.

Now that Natalie's role is over, as is Hollywood convention, the actors will go on vacation. But Natalie obviously does not have this condition.

As an apology, Dunn had to invite her to take a walk on Venice Beach in Los Angeles to relax.

Natalie pouted, not very happy, "You never take me out on vacation!"

"Didn't we go to Australia last year? Didn't we go around Europe during the Cannes Film Festival?" Dunn and Natalie stepped on the soft and delicate sand with bare feet, ignoring them at all. A few bodyguards silently followed behind.

Natalie said angrily, "That's work! You're just hanging out with me by the way."

Dunn sighed, "Nate, you know, I'm... very busy recently. "Spider-Man" is released, two blockbusters are to be prepared, and I have to negotiate with Jobs recently..."

"That's not a reason! Can't you even spare a week?" Natalie kicked fiercely, raising a layer of golden sand.

Dunn took her little hand, "It's mainly a matter of transportation. The plane won't be in service until September, and the yacht will be even longer."

"yacht?"

Natalie's eyes suddenly lit up and she looked at him in surprise, "You bought a yacht? Is it a big one?"

Dunn glanced at her with a smile, and the girl really likes that kind of luxurious and spectacular private yachts, "Germany's Lüssen shipyard designed the concept map, which is very good. They will send someone over next week to bring their design ideas. Come and discuss some details."

"Wow! Cool!"

Natalie got excited and jumped up and took Dunn's arm, "Can you talk about it?"

"say what?"

"Yacht! What kind of yacht are you going to build? It's not too bad, right?"

Natalie knows that Dunn is rich and young, and what he pursues must be of high grade.

Dunn said casually: "At least it's bigger and more luxurious than the old guys like 'Savarona' and 'Alexander'."

"Savarona" is a product of the 1930s. It is 124 meters long and is the largest private yacht in the world today. It is now leased by rich Turkish businessmen.

The yacht "Alexander" was built in 1965, with a length of 122 meters. It is owned by the Greek ship king family. It has been upgraded and renovated twice. It is now the second largest private yacht in the world. It is also used for leasing. The daily rental price… …$85,000!

Hearing what Dunn said, little stars shone in Natalie's eyes, not to mention how happy she was, "What about the specifics?"

Tang En found that she was extremely excited, and kissed her on the cheek, "What do you think?"

"I think...there should be a hospital on the yacht. If there is a problem at sea, it can be treated in time."

"good idea."

"Also, if you have a swimming pool, you can't always soak in salt water."

"good idea."

"Well... there is also an audio-visual theater! When you are bored, you can watch movies together."

"Should be."

Natalie's happy eyes curved into a line, "It's best to have a submarine, and then you can go to see the underwater world!"

Tang En waved his hand, "Yes, it must be matched! Not only submarines, but also several small speedboats, you can enjoy the speed and passion on the sea!"

"Yes, that's it!" Natalie tilted her head and thought for a while, "It's better to have a helicopter to facilitate transportation. I heard that there are very few docks for such large cruise ships, and it is very difficult to dock. "

"Okay, there's a helicopter!" Tang En put his arms around her waist with a smile, "Is there any more?"

"And..." Natalie bit her lip, but she couldn't think of anything, and suddenly felt a little weird, "Hey, why are you always asking me? I didn't buy it!"

Dunn leaned down, bit her small earlobe lightly, and whispered, "This is our yacht, you said... The name of the yacht is 'Nate', how about it?"

"what?"

Natalie's cheeks instantly turned crimson.

It is impossible for Dunn to give her the yacht directly. The estimated cost of the yacht is 200 million US dollars, and the tax increase alone will cost 100 million US dollars, and she cannot afford it at all.

By naming this way, to express Natalie's position in her heart, it is also sincere enough.

"Dawn, I...I..."

There were tears in Natalie's eyes, and she was speechless.

Tang En smiled, hugged her lightly, strolled on the soft beach, and said softly, "Nate, I said, I will give you the happiest life!"

Natalie sniffed, quickly sorted out her emotions, and snorted, "Is this compensation?"

"Ah? What compensation?"

Natalie raised her nose and said, "You feel that you owe me, so you compensate in this way, right?"

"Cough cough..."

Tang En had a black line on his forehead, "My dear, it's better to be late than never, and it's better to be compensated than to be indebted."

"God theory!"

Natalie glanced at him, snorted disdainfully, and then couldn't help herself, "puchi" laughed.

The two walked silently on the beach, holding hands and swaying, facing the afterglow of the sunset, with long silhouettes scattered diagonally.

"If not compensation, what are you going to name the yacht?"

"Nate, I've already thought about it!"

"Liar!"

Natalie snorted lightly, tilted her head, pursed her lips and smiled, "You will definitely be named 'Dawn'."

"how is this possible?"

"Sure, look at your industry, Dunn Films, Dunn Capital, Dunn Building... Hmph, narcissist!"
