Chapter 323： Insects Mobilization

The summer season is the peak season for movies, and it is also the most competitive time. Since Pixar Studios dare to put the movie in this time period, it must be full of confidence, and with the full support of Ryan and Paramount Pictures, " "Bug Crisis" has a comprehensive global release plan. It will not be like in the previous life. In many places overseas, it can only be used to release DVDs.

This animated feature film has attracted a lot of attention in the industry. Many people want to see if "Saving Private Ryan" is under pressure from the box office of more than $55 million in the first week. Does "Bug Crisis" really make a difference? As, even if there is a huge difference between the audiences of the two.

In addition, what Hollywood is most concerned about is the direct confrontation between 3D computer animation and 2D hand-drawn animation. One week after the release of "Bug Crisis", Disney invested a huge production budget and promotion and marketing expenses for "Mulan" will also be launched in North America. Although in the past few years, it has been said that hand-painted animation is declining, and 3D computer animation will become the mainstream in the future, but it is up to the market and the audience to decide whether to do it accurately or not.

There are still many people who are interested in watching the lively. Although it seems that the two animated feature films are in a legitimate competition, people with a discerning eye know that Disney put this cartoon drawn from the far east behind the "Bug Crisis". , There must be a shadow of Michael Eisner.

However, Pixar Studio wants to completely complete the transformation from the ugly duckling to the white swan, and such competition is inevitable.

This premiere not only attracted the attention of the entertainment media, but also many financial reporters came to the famous chain theater in Times Square.

"Ike, why are you here, do you want to switch to entertainment news?"

In the interview area at the end of the red carpet, taking advantage of Ryan's free time after entering, an entertainment reporter asked a familiar financial reporter.

"Alex, you should broaden your horizons and think about it. If this animated film is successful, Pixar's stock price will surely rise sharply, and countless investors and financial professionals are staring at it."

"By the way, I heard that the foundation under Ryan's name, in addition to Yahoo's shares, also holds a lot of shares in IT companies such as Microsoft, Cisco, Dell, and Apple. Is it true?"

"It's true, but not many, except Cisco. Everything else is absorbed from the market."

"How much is that worth?"

"This one……"

The theater door cut off the disturbance from the outside. Ryan circled the front hall to greet him, and walked to Harvey Weinstein. This big fat man had a haggard face, and his eyes were covered with fine bloodshot eyes. Apparently he hadn't rested recently. it is good.

"Harvey, how are you preparing?" Ryan asked in a low voice.

"It's almost there." Harvey Weinstein sighed, with a trace of perseverance, "Just give up Miramax. Bob and I are really unwilling."

Ryan patted his shoulder lightly and didn't say much. The Weinstein brothers were all smart and courageous, and they changed hands and took the initiative to leave. Better than being ousted by Michael Eisner.

"Nicole and I have reserved enough funds, and we will wait for you and Bob."

The two parties have been working together for so many years and are old friends again. Harvey Weinstein can naturally hear whether Ryan is polite or sincere. Nodded seriously, "Thank you, Ryan."

He is not worried that Ryan will become the next Michael Eisner. After all, there are not a few film companies and studios invested by the other party. Except for necessary support, they hardly interfere with their normal operations and daily management. Drew Barrymore’s Flower Pictures is the best example. Such investors and cooperation. The winner is the most popular.

What's more, he is regarded as the person who watched him grow up, and he has been in friendship for nearly ten years. He knows that he is a nostalgic person.

"Ryan..."

Natalie and Scarlett Johansson each took a little girl dressed up and walked into the theater. After finding Ryan's location, they quickly walked over, "Hello, Harvey."

"Oh, hello, Nat, Scarlett, Tyler, and Kristen." The big fat man beckoned them and looked at the blonde curly hair, "Taylor, I heard that you also voiced a character ?"

"Yeah~" Taylor let go of the hand holding Natalie, and made a little lady's gift. "The character I dubbed is called Xiao Budian, the little princess of the Ant Kingdom."

"Is it fun, dear?" Ryan habitually rubbed her blonde hair.

"It's not fun." Taylor shook his head dissatisfiedly, and said, "I still prefer to sing, Ryan, why doesn't this movie have a theme song? I heard that Disney's "Mulan" has Lots of nice songs."

"Taylor, there must be a chance in the future." Natalie's eyes swept across Ryan. When she passed the sky blue eyes, she revealed meanings that only two people could understand. She took the little girl's hand again. Asked, "How do you know there are many songs in "Mulan"?"

"The two of us listened to others..." It was Kristen Stewart who spoke, "Disney wants to compete with us and wants to use "Mulan" to defeat "Bug Crisis."

Ryan couldn't help scratching his head, these little girls were too gossip.

"Mr. Weinstein, will we win?" Taylor looked at the big fat man.

"Should you ask Ryan?" Harvey Weinstein laughed.

"But..." The little girl's sapphire blue eyes kept turning, "but I have heard many people say that you have a particularly good eye for movies, and you have a particularly accurate prediction of movies."

After that, she looked at Scarlett's side again, "Right, Christine."

"Well, that's it." The tomboy from the Stewart family has always been her follower, and nodded busy at this time.

Harvey Weinstein laughed happily when he heard the words of two little girls singing and making a peace. Anyone who was complimented by such two little girls would be happy.

"Let's put it this way, do you know the theme of "Mulan"?"

"I know." Tyler stuck out his tongue and pointed at Natalie next to him. "Nate told me specifically that it was an ancient story from the East. It is said that there are related poems, but Nat chanted it. I don't understand all of them."

"Because of the subject matter, "Mulan" should not be the opponent of "Bug Crisis" in North America, but it is hard to say overseas."

Four girls on the opposite side. Not to mention the older two, but the two who are less than ten years old in front of them. Which of them didn't play big in a film company since they were young. Harvey Weinstein believes they can understand their own words.

"That's it." The two little girls nodded unconsciously.

"Ryan, I'm going to say hello to the others."

Seeing that the curious little girl wanted to ask other questions, Harvey Weinstein hurriedly left. He knew how difficult this little guy named Taylor Swift was, "Goodbye, four beautiful ladies."

When the chubby figure disappeared into the crowd, Natalie was the first to laugh. Then Scarlett also laughed.

"Is it funny?" Tyler wrinkled his nose, scanned around, and tugged Natalie's hand. "It's been a long time since I came to New York, Nat, will you take me and Christine out tomorrow?"

"Of course." Natalie agreed happily, then looked at Ryan questioningly and asked, "Do you want to take him?"

"No." The little girl shook her head very fast. "I don't want to talk to Ryan. He wouldn't take me to Moscow and Fiji. I hate him."

"Hey, dear, don't forget that I brought you so many gifts." Seeing the flames of war. Ryan couldn't help but speak.

The little girl turned her head and put on a picture that I just don't want to talk to you.

"Okay, dear." Ryan reluctantly rubbed her hair. "Didn't you miss Nicole. After having fun in New York, I will let the plane take you to Australia."

Anyway, she is off for summer vacation, it is better to send it to Australia to harm Nicole and the farm.

"Really?" Taylor's eyes lit up.

"no sooner said than done."

"Can you add me?" Christine raised his hand weakly.

"no problem."

Ryan's voice just fell. Ed Kamel came over and reminded them, "Ryan, there are four ladies, it's almost time, we should enter the theater."

"Hurry up, hurry up." Taylor was more active than anyone else, pulling up Natalie and leaving, not forgetting to turn around and shout to Scarlett, "Little fat girl, tomboy, hurry up!"

"Taylor!" Scarlett Johansson gritted his teeth.

In a beautiful ant kingdom, everyone is working hard all day. An ant named Felic has his own hobby—inventing and creating. Although he worked hard to invent a kind of "harvesting machine", the kingdom The rulers of the Queen Ant and Princess Anta still look down upon him and his invention.

The biggest threat to the ant kingdom is a group of grasshoppers. This group of grasshoppers always **** food from the ants. They are the dark clouds above the ant kingdom. When a grasshopper was plundering, Felic accidentally bumped the grain under the cliff. The angry grasshopper leader overlord caught the princess’s sister, Xiao Budian, to vent his anger, and threatened that if he didn’t get double the grain next time, he would Bloodbath the ant kingdom.

Because Felic lost all the food, everyone vented their fears and dissatisfaction on him, and the Ant Kingdom decided to expel Felic.

In order to stay in his ethnic group, Felic came to the city and wanted to find a group of powerful bug warriors so as to defeat the grasshoppers, but by mistake, it found a group of unemployed circuses. actor.

After coming to the ant kingdom, the ants did not believe in these weird-looking insects very much, and the insects themselves were a little afraid, so they retreated and prepared to leave here. Although Felic was disappointed after learning the true identity of the insects, He tried his best to prevent the insects from leaving, otherwise he would be considered a big liar by the ants.

Later, they met the bird, the natural enemy of insects. The circus actors rescued Felic and Xiao Budian, gained the favor of the ants, and regained their confidence. Moreover, Felic was inspired by the birds and decided to make one. Fake birds come to scare away the grasshoppers.

The fake bird was finished, and the king brought his villain to the ant kingdom. Who knew that the boss of the circus came to his insect actors. When the ants learned that the insects were actors in the circus, they were extremely disappointed.

The ant kingdom expelled Felic and the insects. Just at this time, the grasshopper army arrived. With little persuasion, Felic and the insects decided to fight the grasshoppers together. Although the fake birds began to frighten the locusts' attack, all kinds of accidents happened. Overlord saw through the fake bird and was ready to destroy the ant kingdom in one fell swoop.
