Chapter 49: Disney's year-end reception
"Invitation card?"
"And it's Disney's year-end cocktail invitation this year?"
Zhu Ke sitting in the company office, looking at the golden invitation letter in his hand, couldn't help but question Victor.
"Boss, we received the invitation letter this morning. After all, it is Disney, one of the top six in Hollywood, so I immediately contacted you." Victor said.
Zhuke nodded and said, "Disney doesn't seem to have any contact with us, how can they contact us? And as far as I know, even the people invited to their year-end reception should be Hollywood celebrities, including How can some people who have worked with them for a long time invite us?"
Disney’s invitation letter cannot be made by Zhu Ke carelessly.
Those are the top six in Hollywood!
"Boss, this was actually an accident." Victor said.
accident?
Is there any accident?
Victor continued: "Boss, I was surprised at first, but after I received a call, I understood. The person who called me was my immediate boss when I was in Hollywood, William Bart. Ente. He is now working in Disney's animation department and he learned that I am the CEO of Wald Pictures, so he issued the invitation letter."
The voice fell, and Zhu Ke understood.
I think too much about feelings!
Where is Disney Wald Pictures, which is worthy of Zucker?
The reason they issued the invitation letter was nothing more than William Barnte. He is Victor's old leader, and the relationship between the two is quite good. The invitation is to support Victor and expand Victor's network.
Victor asked aloud, "Boss, shall we go to participate?"
"Go, of course I must go!"
Zuke said without hesitation: "Of course we can't miss this kind of good opportunity to expand our network."
Attending Disney’s year-end cocktail party, you will definitely be able to meet many Hollywood bigwigs, including famous directors, producers, actors and other famous people in the industry.
Wald Pictures is very small now, but Zhu Ke is confident that he can develop the company very well.
In order to achieve this goal, Zhuke will inevitably attend similar receptions in the future. Nowadays, Wald Pictures can only shoot some low-cost movies, but with the continuous growth of Zhuke Capital, it will definitely shoot some high-cost blockbusters. By then, it will inevitably be with famous Hollywood actors, directors and other characters. Only through cooperation can we make the most of dollars.
Right now, Disney’s cocktail party is a good opportunity to get in touch!
Three days later.
6 o'clock in the evening.
There is still less than an hour before the cocktail party officially begins.
However, Zhuke and Victor came to the scene early. Well, the venue was in a five-star hotel in Burbank.
Zhuke and Victor came with the purpose of expanding their contacts, and there are also many people with the same purpose.
Therefore, although it is still early, many people have already arrived in the reception venue.
"Hi, Victor, my old friend~!"
As soon as he entered the venue, an elderly man in his 50s stepped forward to embrace Victor excitedly and enthusiastically.
The person here is Victor’s old leader in Hollywood!
is now a manager of Disney's animation department-William Barnte.
William Barnte said excitedly: "Victor, I said long ago that you belong to Hollywood, and now I see you come back again, I am so happy for you."
"Me too, sir."
Victor also said happily: "I have been looking forward to seeing you again in the few days since I received your call."
After a pause, Victor said again, "Oh, yes, sir. Let me introduce you. This is Mr. Zhuke Wald, the boss of Wald Pictures."
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Barent."
Zhuke did not take a stance at the moment, but greeted the old man William humbly.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see the friendship between William and Victor, and in the case of the invitation letter, William really helped Wald Pictures. How can Zhuke disrespect such an old man?
"I am also very happy to meet you. By the way, I have also heard of you. Your company's recent "Fatal Corner" has made a big name."
In the following time, Old William also enthusiastically introduced Zhuke and Victor to some Hollywood insiders he knew.
Somoro Downs;
Cruise Embet Wise;
J Chot Lazist;
Clath James;
...
Wait for these people, it sounds like few people know. However, in the field of Hollywood animation, these people are proper god-level figures. They created "The Lion King", "Snow White", "Mulan" and other animated films, which one is not famous in the world?
After some exchanges, Zhuke and Victor temporarily found a corner to sit down.
"Boss, have you noticed? These veteran characters of Disney animation are quite unsatisfactory at Disney now!"
The keen Victor discovered the melancholy between their brows in the communication with them.
"You're right."
Zhuke nodded and said: "As far as I know, since the glory of "The Lion King" produced in 1994-95, the life of Disney animation has been difficult, especially the recent release of "Aladdin and the King of Thieves~" www.wuxiaspot.com~ The box office fiasco has made this group of Disney's heroic veterans live like years."
The movie "Aladdin and the King of Thieves" cost Disney US$65 million, plus a publicity fee of US$15 million, resulting in a total cost of US$80 million.
However, the box office on the day of the premiere only received 6 million U.S. dollars.
has been in theaters for more than a month, and now the cumulative box office in North America is worth more than 20 million US dollars. It can be described as a major box office failure!
The most important thing is that the reputation is also rotten!
Victor sighed: "The animation produced by Disney was once the favorite animation of children in the world, but the times have changed. The hand-drawn animation represented by Disney is no longer popular; and the 3D computer animation technology represented by Pixar has gradually become Mainstream."
After a pause, he said, "Moreover, Pixar's animations are also distributed by Disney. This kind of children picked up from outside defeated their own sons. How can you say that these veterans of Disney animation can still sit down?"
Zuke agrees!
is actually the same.
The future is a 3D computer animation represented by Pixar!
In the future, Disney Princess animation will always be lifeless and fall to the bottom. It was not until 2014 that they relied on "Frozen" to return to the pinnacle of Hollywood animation!
"what?"
"Zuke, my old friend, and Victor, why are you here?"
At this moment, a suspicious voice came into Zhuke's ears.
looked up, it turned out to be an acquaintance.
John Lasseter, head of the Pixar Five Tigers;
There is also the dragging old man-Jobs.
The first update of "" is sent.
