Chapter 118: Watch "Titanic" in advance
Burbank Villa area.
Zhu Ke, who was finally busy with his work, had a few days of free time. No, this evening, Zhu Ke invited a few good friends to be guests at home.
One of the Pixar Five Tigers: John Lasseter;
One of the five Pixar Tigers: Andrew Stanton;
Hollywood newcomer: Charlize Theron;
invited the three of them in total. Under the arrangement of the housekeeper and the maid, a dining table was placed next to the swimming pool of the villa, and a lot of colored lights were lit up around it.
"Oh my God!"
As soon as I sat down, Lasseter yelled, "Are you really the Zhuke I know?!"
"What's the matter?" Zhu Ke was puzzled.
"Yes, John, what are you making a fuss about?" Andrew Stanton was also curious.
Andrew Stanton is not a general.
Like John Lasseter, he is a veteran employee of Pixar Animation, second only to Lasseter. He is the creator and director of the three series of animations, "Bug Crisis", "Finding Nemo" and "Brain Squad".
You said Oscar?
Ha ha!
Pixar Five Tigers, which one does not have the Oscar for Best Animated Short Film Award?
In 2009, the Pixar Five Tigers, and even the five of them, sealed the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Venice Film Festival!
Even now in 1997, Andrew Stanton is still a **** in the field of proper animation, not less famous than John Lasseter.
Of course, in the future, Andrew will also have a day of unreliable reputation!
Andrew, who has been struggling in the field of animation, one day unexpectedly went to shoot a live-action movie. Well, that is, the famous "Alien Battlefield", the production cost was as high as 250 million US dollars. As a result, after the film was released, it almost didn't lose Disney to death!
Hmm, the kind who lost old blood!
These are all things that happened in the original time and space history. It is only 97 years now. Who knows what will happen in the future?
"Man, you don't even know?!"
Lasseter looked at his partner Andrew with surprise.
Charlize Theron on the side also smiled without saying a word.
"Look, guys. Boston's big lobster, Texas Souk steak, imported pasta, Newfoundland snails, oh, there is even 77-year-old Romane Conti red wine. Zhuke, my goodness, your old man When is it so generous?!"
Lasseter exclaimed.
The voice fell, and Zhu Ke's old face turned black in an instant.
Is there such a burying person!
The emperor also pointed to the sumptuous dishes on the table: "Zuke, I think John is right. We have known each other for more than two years, and the number of times you have invited me to dinner is only a handful. I won’t say it, except a few Outside of the movie celebration banquet, every time you ask me for a meal that does not exceed US$200. This time it is so rich, it’s weird."
After finished speaking, she added: "There is a problem, you must have a problem!"
Make a promise!
That's right, the expressions of the Emperor Serb and Lasseter at the moment are clearly like "you have a problem".
"I said you two, there are good things to eat, can't you stop your mouths?"
Rao is Zhu Ke who has seen many big scenes. At this moment, he is making a fool of himself in front of his friends, and he can't help his face flushing.
Andrew could not help but mutter: "I said why Zhuke, never invited me to dinner, it turned out to be stingy."
Fuck!
Hearing this muttering, Zhuke almost did not run away!
ashamed!
I'm obviously frugal, okay, when does it become stingy?
"Guys, don’t you want to ruin my reputation? If I invite you to a big meal this time, it doesn’t mean that I am not a stingy person, Zucker Wald, on the contrary, I am quite generous to my friends. !" Zhu Ke defended.
The reputation must not be stinky, and the person must not collapse.
We also have an ID card, and we are also a face-to-face person. How can you ruin the reputation of the Sajia family?
"Zuke, shouldn't you ask me for help?" Lasseter asked cautiously.
please help?
Congratulations, you guessed it!
That’s right, Zhuke invited Lasseter and Andrew to enjoy a sumptuous dinner today, and he really has something to ask them for help.
Zhuke's Water World Studio, in addition to the production of the second season of "SpongeBob SquarePants" recently, the main work is for "Finding Nemo", and strive to complete the production and release within three years.
But.
At present, Water World Animation Studio has reported that it has encountered a lot of difficulties.
There are great difficulties in the design of 3D computer animation characters such as hair, scales, water patterns, light grain effects and so on. In other words, the technology is not in place to maximize the beauty of the ocean.
Once the effect is not up to the standard, it will inevitably greatly affect the box office of "Finding Nemo".
This result is unacceptable to Zhu Ke!
Steven Solenberg, on behalf of Water World Animation Studios, applied to Pixar for a technology transfer buyout, but it turned out to be rejected.
Well, the kind without hesitation.
"Man, it turns out you are talking about this!"
Lasseter suddenly realized: "I know about this. Although Andrew and I are not responsible for the technology transfer, we have also heard about it. It was Steve Jobs who personally rejected your transaction application."
Fuck!
I knew it was him!
Zhuke almost yelled.
Although he had some friendship with Jobs, he refused to mention any cooperation or transaction again, and among them, he was not lacking in revenge because Zhu Ke did not transfer ICQ shares to him.
Don't doubt, Jobs is sometimes such a confession person~www.wuxiaspot.com~John, don't talk about these useless things. Just say, can you help me with this? "Zuke stared.
Immediately, Charlize, John, and Andrew laughed loudly.
"Don't be anxious! Can I help you tell Jobs, isn't it?" Lasseter laughed.
Andrew also said: "Just the first time Zhuke invited me to dinner, it is still such a rich meal, I will also help."
Hearing this, Zhu Ke immediately danced with joy.
In fact, Zhuke knew that Jobs was not unwilling to trade technology, he was just a kid who had a temper. As long as Zhu Ke insists repeatedly, he will definitely be able to win in the end. After all, Pixar does not transfer technology from one family to another.
But this is bound to waste a lot of Zhuke's time.
Now that there are two of Lasseter and Andrew, they must be caught in their hands!
"Come on, I'll have a drink. Good guy, Romanie Conti from 1977, a bottle of 40,000 dollars, don't waste it."
Speaking of the $40,000 price tag of Romani Conti in 1977, Zhu Ke really feels distressed. If this bottle of wine is kept for another ten years, the price will at least double again.
However, sharing it with friends occasionally, Zhuke's current financial resources are still acceptable.
......
The next day.
Zhuke, who slept until noon, received a joint invitation from 20th Century Fox and Paramount.
invited Zhu Ke to participate in the movie "Titanic" on August 22, which was jointly invested and shot by the two film companies.
"Did the big ship hit an iceberg? You can go and see." Zhu Ke laughed.
The second update of "" is sent.
Thanks to the book friends for their rewards
