Chapter 50: Hollywood bigwigs
"Lassett, you are very busy now. Except for the last celebration party, I asked you to go out to play golf several times. You are not free."
Zhuke looked at Lasseter with a bitter expression on his face.
"Haha, sorry, I'm not busy lately." Lasseter waved his hand apologetically.
The two have known each other for more than a year, and with Zhuke's ability, the friendship is really good. I do know that he is very busy recently.
Well, I'm busy planning and producing Pixar's second feature-length computer animation-"Bug Crisis".
In addition, Pixar has also benefited from the rise in its stock price. It has recently expanded its manpower from the original dozens of people to nearly 400 people today.
"Heh~, it seems that you are really strong and strong now, um, and you Pixar are hard to beat, you will be more and more powerful in the future!" Zhu Ke exclaimed.
Hearing this, Lasseter waved his hand and smiled: "It's okay, it's okay."
Lasseter is humble, but the one next to him doesn't know how to be humble.
"Huh~!"
Jobs gave Zucker a heavy look and said: "Mr. Wald, we Pixar used to be great, now we are great, and we will be even better in the future. This is a matter of course. You don’t need your praise.”
Grass mud horse~!
Fuck!
I blew you a few words, why are you criticizing me? !
Zhuke was a little annoyed for a moment.
The entire United States was **** saying that Jobs was arrogant and arrogant. Zhu Ke hadn't thought it was serious before, but now it seems to be true.
After a little thought, Zhuke understood.
When he came into contact with Steve Jobs in 1995, it was his most impoverished and lowest period. At that time, he just wanted to be a grandson because he couldn’t get up.
But now, the explosion of "Toy Story" has made Pixar's market value as high as one billion US dollars. He no longer pretends to be a grandson, and once again restored his arrogant qualities.
Moreover, it is said that he may return to Apple in the near future.
In fact, the same is true. Following the trajectory of the original time and space, Jobs will return to Apple in January 1997 to take over the power of the company.
"Jobs, our two have worked together anyway, you don't have to say that."
Zhu Ke suppressed angrily.
Jobs shook his head and said, "There is no need to say that, but when I thought of selling you the peripheral copyright of "Toy Story" at a low price, I was so angry. I was always the only one who took advantage of others. Can take advantage of my Jobs."
得~!
At these words, Zhu Ke stopped being angry.
"Hehe, when it comes to taking advantage, Lao Tzu is really not afraid."
"I am happy to see you aggrieved."
Zuke is not a good person, and when it comes to irritating things, it is not at all mercy.
"you.......!"
Steve Jobs looked at the hippy smiling Zhuke angrily, and found that he could not do anything, so he could only leave secretly.
Lasseter curled his lips to the side, and said helplessly: "Zuke, can't you let him be a little bit? After all, you also know that he is an old child, and he has been addicted."
Zhuke continued: "Hey, let me just say that. Who knows that his temper is still so bad? He is not magnanimous at all. He always remembers the corners and corners."
Victor shook his head and said nothing.
Jobs is not a good temper;
In fact, Zhuke is not much better. Once encountered uncomfortable things, words such as "fuck", "damn", and "bastard" continue to pop up in that mouth.
"I said Lasseter, you just said that your boss, aren't you afraid of him lifting the table?" Zhuke curiously asked.
Lasseter smiled and said, "No. Didn't I say that, he is not forgiving, in fact, he is very good to our Pixar insiders."
Zuke nodded.
From what I know, it is true.
You must know that the working environment and atmosphere of Pixar in the future will indeed be No. 1 in the United States!
Single-family villa-style office buildings, sumptuous food available at any time, large areas of greenery, personal free studio, various indoor activities, football field in front of your house, swimming pool... etc., which one Isn't the item fascinating?
The extremely superior welfare and working environment are important conditions for the formation of Pixar's gang!
It can be seen from this that Steve Jobs really had nothing to say to everyone at Pixar.
...
soon.
As the official start time of the cocktail party approaches, the bigwigs from all parties in Hollywood have begun to appear one after another!
Spielberg, Katzenberg and David Geffen of the Big Three of DreamWorks;
Great director Cameron James;
Barry Meyer, CEO of Warner Future;
Murdoch, the boss of 20th Century Fox;
Redstone, the boss of Paramount;
Two-time Oscar actor Tom Hanks;
Bluheimer, a well-known Hollywood producer;
...
Wait for the big guys, who is not the big guy who resounds throughout North America?
Looking at them, Zhu Ke couldn't help but curl his lips at Victor: "Victor, don't envy them. In a few years, we will also be guests at major receptions."
After finishing speaking, he added: "Well, it's more popular than them."
Upon hearing this, Victor smiled and said, "Boss, you are happy."
Obviously, Victor doesn't quite believe Zucker's words.
Or as long as it is a normal person. After all, dude, those are the top six in Hollywood! Does it mean that transcendence can be transcended?
In fact, Zhu Ke still has a bit of confidence!
"Lao Tzu is a traverser, and there is a system that often pretends to be dead. No matter how bad it is, as long as you grasp the two major events of the Internet bubble in early 2000 and the global financial crisis in 2008, you will definitely be able to make a lot of money. full."
The following time, Zhuke and Victor turned on the cheeky mode.
Crazy and shamelessly expanding contacts.
"hello~"
"Hello, Will Smith, this is Zucker Wald, a director and the owner of a film company."
The first target Zucker touched was Will Smith.
With the release of "Independence Day" some time ago, Will Smith was completely popular all over the world. Of course, as far as Zhu Ke knows, he will be even more popular in the next ten years.
"Men in Black", "Boxing King Ali", "Mechanical Enemy", "When Happiness Comes Knock on the Door", "I Am a Legend", etc., which of these films he starred in has not won a very high box office in the world ?
Knowing him now, for Zhu Ke, it is definitely not a loss!
...
The second goal, Xiao Lizi.
"Mr. DiCaprio, nice to meet you."
"I am the owner of a film company, yes, but I also have a chain store nearby. Well, SpongeBob Squarepants House."
"Oh? Have you heard of it? That would be even better."
"Yes, although we only have 7 stores in Los Angeles, our reputation and turnover are definitely in the entire Los Angeles, and even the entire California area, which is also among the best."
"oh~, there will be opportunities for cooperation in film in the future. UU看书wwwww.uukanshu.com"
"I want to ask you this time, are you interested in becoming the image spokesperson of our SpongeBob House?"
"Don't worry, according to your reputation, I will definitely give a high price!"
Zhuke held the wine glass and chatted with the little plum.
Xiao Lizi became famous very early. Since "The Troubles of Growing Up", he has become a well-known child star in the United States; in 1993, he was nominated for the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor Award for "A Different Sky"; in 1995, he became the Berlin Film Festival in one fell swoop. The actor.
It is no exaggeration to say that even if he has not become popular around the world because of "Titanic", he is not an ordinary movie actor.
Of course, now he is more of a literary male god!
Its commercial value is not high.
Especially since he lost his child star's aura, there are not many endorsements in his body now.
Well, the endorsement fee is not too high!
Otherwise, in the face of him after 97 years, Zhuke would never consider him.
"I am smart. As long as I sign him, my SpongeBob House will benefit after "Titanic" is released."
"I'm such a clever ghost!"
Zuke began to think about things.
The two-hour cocktail party soon ended.
Zhuke and Victor only felt that their trip was worthwhile. They met a lot of big people. Even if they don’t have much friendship now, they will be able to establish friendship later on.
After the excited Zhu Ke returned home, he received a call and got another good news.
"Mr. Wald, our icq has been developed. Would you like to come and have a look tomorrow?"
Hearing this news, even though it is almost 11 o'clock in the evening, Zhuke is quite excited and not sleepy.
