Chapter 83： What are you looking for?

"I am not a person with a gifting talent. I am not good at saying inspiring words. Here I only promise one point: within three years, as long as you don't have problems with your work, Pixar will not have any layoffs."

After Steve Jobs left, Eric said to all the employees in the open office. This is also their biggest concern. In the past year or so, Pixar has continuously abolished several batches of employees because of financial constraints.

Sure enough, after Eric made the promise, many people breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone knows the identity of Eric. The young man is now a poor money owner. Since he has made such a promise, he will not easily go back.

"Well, now everyone continues to work and all management comes to the conference room."

After a brief commotion, the head of Pixar, led by John Rasset, gathered in the conference room.

"Everyone must know me, and when I read the materials, I also made some understanding of you, so I can temporarily skip this link."

There was a low laugh in the conference room, and Eric smiled and waited for a while, then said: "Before Pixar was in a bad situation, but then it won't be like this anymore. You may be very curious about why I bought Pixar. I told John about this, I am interested in 3D animated movies, just have money to invest, so I did it. Presumably you will not doubt my vision in the movie, according to Pixar’s previous short film Xiaobing, I thought of a very good long story idea..."

“The affluent little owner owns a house toy. Because cowboy Hudi is the most loved, he has become the boss of all toys. But suddenly one day, the little master brought back another new toy, Buzz Lightyear, Pakistan. Siguang was young and novel, and his function was advanced. The little masters loved it. The result threatened Hu Di’s boss status, so Hu Di began to find ways to drive Buzz Lightyear away, and the two toys fell together. Out of the room, flowing to another neighbor's child who likes to treat the toy rudely..."

It took a few minutes to talk about the story of Toy Story, and Eric went on to say: "When I met John last time, I told him that I would invest 30 million for this 3D animation movie. The dollar, of course, the budget can be added, I just need you to do the best for this animation. For me, it doesn't matter if it fails, but I think Pixar should have failed to survive."

Pixar's executives showed a dignified expression on their faces. The previous Pixar couldn't make ends meet. If the road of 3D animation could no longer be achieved, it was estimated that Pixar would not stand alone. Eric is very satisfied with the reaction of everyone. Although he knows that 3D animation will become the mainstream of animated films in the near future, but now it is said to give everyone a boost, these people will certainly not believe. It is better to give them some pressure to change their tone.

"I know that the production cycle of animated films is very long. I want to give you three years of production time for this movie. In three years, Pixar will not have any changes, and you don't need to pick up advertising projects to maintain Pixar. Operation, you can put all your energy into the production of "Toy Story". Well, my words are over, now everyone talk about their views?"

The pressure left by Jobs also left Pixar's high-level heart, and after carefully asking a few questions, everyone determined that Eric and Jobs were completely different kinds of people, finally let go of themselves and began to speak freely.

Because the discussion was too much, everyone ignored the lunch time until the sunset, the location was not too good, the conference room was dimmed, and all the talents reacted, and the sky was already dark.

In order to ensure that "Toy Story" will not be too different from previous life, Eric spent another three days in Richmond, during which he personally wrote the full script of "Toy Story", and will also be cowboy Hudi, Pakistan. The shape of a set of toys, such as Si Guangnian, was hand-painted and handed over to Pixar's production staff.

It wasn't until Fox President Barry Diller personally called to remind Eric that he had disappeared for a week to attend the celebration party of "Feng Yue Qiao Jia Ren", he had to leave Richmond.

Eric didn't think about moving Pixar to Los Angeles. He privately told John Rasset that the result was that it was difficult to implement.

Most of Pixar's technicians have lived in the San Francisco Bay for a long time. They are used to everything here, and even many people have settled here. And the big environment in Los Angeles is not suitable for animation studios such as Pixar, but Richmond is very close to the Silicon Valley where high-tech companies gather together, but it is more suitable for Pixar's survival.

Eric heard the explanation of John Russett and gave up the original plan. Anyway, San Francisco is only five or six hundred kilometers away from Los Angeles and can be reached by air in an hour. Back and forth is very convenient, Eric is no longer strong.

After staying at the hotel for a week, I finally got home and took a shower in comfort. After several hours of the evening banquet, Eric was too lazy to prepare. Wearing loose and casual clothes, leaning against the sofa in the living room, lazy to touch the remote control and turn on the TV and watch it.

When I was sleepy, I heard the sound of the doorbell.

Open the door, the sneaky girl with wig sunglasses, dressed in a very ordinary clothes, anxiously waiting at the door, from time to time looked around.

"How can I open the door so slowly? It is a bad thing to be discovered by the paparazzi."

Eric looked at Julia's dress and sideways let the girl enter the door: "What do you dress up like this, oh... a bit like Alison?"

"I let Alison dress like me and leave, before I get rid of the paparazzi and get out of it." Julia's tone was a little smug.

"What to drink?" came to the living room, Eric asked, going to the refrigerator.

"Coffee, no sugar, not too hot."

"Oh," Eric responded, giving Julia a glass of juice.

The girl glanced at him blankly, or picked up the juice: "You are always so abominable."

Eric once again stumbled on the sofa and looked at Julia with great interest: "You have changed a lot. Look at this sitting position, listen to this tone, a Hollywood top actress fan is coming, I I can't help but want to sign a sign with you."

"No problem, where is the sign?" Julia felt a magical pen from her arms.

Eric old **** looked at the ceiling for a while, as if brewing something, then suddenly opened the waistband of the casual pants and looked at it inside. He shook his head and said, "No, you don't feel it, you can't sign it."

Pooh--

The girl's face was reddish, and she sipped at Eric, her eyes twitching and holding up the juice.

After a while, Julia put down the cup: "I heard that you bought an animation studio?"

"Well, it’s too tired to shoot a real-life movie, and I’m going to change my way to guiding an animated film.”

The girl glanced at Eric in a strange way: "Are you serious?"

"It’s all so cooked, and who is it to see.” Eric said, still sitting up straight and asking, "Well, what's the matter with me?"
