Vol 3 Chapter 732: Nothing for 1 cent!
"Hollywood starts with animation (
The premiere event of "Kung Fu Panda" has officially started!
Stephen Heilenberg, CEO of Water World Animation and the director of the film, David Messer, one of the directors, and a group of key creators took the lead on the stage to answer questions from reporters.
As for Zucker?
Well, it's not yet time for Zhuke to play. And as far as Zhu Ke is today, he is very willing to give others the most visible and glorious moment.
"Are you really not going up today?" Murdoch teased.
Zhu Ke waved his hand and smiled: "Forget it, when Blue Sky Studio's "Ice Age" was released, I didn't see you personally come on stage."
Hearing this, Murdoch was astonished immediately: "It has changed a lot, this is not like your previous style. I remember before that, as long as it was a major production of your company, you would praise it and personally stand for it. Propaganda."
"That's it!"
John Lasseter, the leader of the Pixar Five Tigers on the side, said: "When "Finding Nemo" was released, good fellow, you were really good at jumping. You have promoted the excellence of "Finding Nemo" in front of the media countless times, and even Personally board the WB TV network under your name to promote. This time... it's a rare low-key!"
"Don't tell me this. Wasn't it a critical period for Water World Animation, and if you want to go public, can I not stand on the platform myself?"
Zhuke said irritably.
As a big boss, he will certainly spare no effort to promote his own company's films.
Don't you see? In 1995, as the boss of Pixar Animation, Jobs, in order to make Pixar Animation catch up with the listing craze, his face was muddled out, better than Zhuke's shamelessness.
As for now~
The company is on the right track, and it is not a full equity holding by Zhu Ke, Zhu Ke is naturally willing to stay behind the scenes when it is not necessary.
Give them the honor, the money is still yours!
What's wrong with this, you say?
After a media reporter asked questions, "Kung Fu Panda" opened the first round of trial screenings in North American theaters.
Kung Fu master-raccoon master;
The five outstanding kung fu masters: the fierce tiger, the golden monkey, the spirit crane, the spirit snake, and the fast mantis;
The protagonist, panda Abao, and his big goose father and villain Taro;
Wait, it's all on stage!
Whether it is the red lanterns full of screens, the streets with wooden structures, or the five apprentices of the master (crane, praying mantis, tiger, monkey, and snake), the creative inspiration comes from five famous styles in martial arts, etc., everything is nothing. It's not full of strong ancient tian dynasty style.
"An old-fashioned children's film with a normal storyline. A predictable story is one of its missions, but the film is not bad, but it lacks surprises."
A reporter from the "New York Daily Entertainment" whispered.
Hearing that, a reporter from the entertainment section of the "Washington Post" sneered and said: "Man, this is an animated cartoon, not a science fiction or a suspense film. Isn't it normal to guess the next plot development? At least, this computer animation produced by Water World is very infectious and inspiring. Isn't it great?!"
"......"
The reporter of the "New York Daily Entertainment" felt a sigh of gamble.
The plot of "Kung Fu Panda" is indeed very simple. It tells the story of Panda A Bao from a fat mansion full of fantasy, under the guidance of the master, to become a new Kung Fu master and savior step by step.
The plot is very simple, but through the creation of the creators of Water World Animation, this simple story has become so humorous and vivid, and every character in the plot is so distinctive.
That's enough, what more steamed buns and buns? !
"Although the film is mainly aimed at children, the humor of "Kung Fu Panda" is applicable to people of all ages."
"The Hollywood Reporter" reporter said.
A reporter from The Associated Press said: "This summer, blockbuster movies cost more and more, but they often make viewers feel more and more boring. The simple and relaxed style "Kung Fu Panda" is an exception. It is very good. I think The Water World Animation has succeeded again this time."
Was it successful again?
As soon as this remark came out, it was immediately recognized and affirmed by many media reporters. At the same time, they also felt that Water World Animation was really amazing.
Up to now, there are only three cinema animation films produced by Water World Animation, namely "Finding Nemo", "Flying House Global", and "Kung Fu Panda" which is about to land on theaters in the United States.
Since the company was founded several years ago, only these three animated films have been produced. Compared with Pixar Animation and DreamWorks, the output is relatively low!
but!
Who dares to underestimate the water world animation?
Although the number is small, but the first two movies are not able to stand up to a big profit!
The profit at the box office alone exceeded hundreds of millions of dollars. The most critical peripheral licensing and peripheral markets are even more profitable.
The current market value of Water World Animation is nearly 3 billion US dollars, which is enough to show the market's recognition and pursuit of it!
"awesome!"
Andre, the editor-in-chief of the Los Angeles Entertainment News, praised: "Kung Fu Panda will be a great success without any accident. At that time, the share price of Water World Animation will usher in a big rise. Tsk Tsk Tsk, it's really amazing! "
At this moment, the audience, reporters, film critics, and invited guests at the premiere felt that Zhu Ke would make a lot of money again, but...some people who are colleagues and competitors, But my heart is sour.
For example: Jeffrey Katzenberg of DreamWorks Animation!
"Boss, Water World Animation is estimated to be successful again, the kind that can't be stopped." The assistant whispered.
"Humph!"
At this moment, Jeffery snorted very uncomfortably: "Success is success. Besides, is our DreamWorks bad? Is our Shrek bad?"
The assistant nodded suddenly, and hurriedly said: "Boss, you are right~www.wuxiaspot.com~The premiere of Kung Fu Panda" went well, but who can guarantee that it will get a high box office after it is released? It is the most direct recognition!"
Jeffery nodded and let out a sigh of relief.
Yes, there is no animation that has been approved by the market, who can guarantee that it will be a big hit?
For example, the animated film "Cinderella", which landed on North American theaters two months ago, is a long-lasting story that was created by Disney Animation at a cost of 80 million US dollars, two years, and more than 300 staff. The premiere was a great success!
Representatives of theaters and film critics all expressed great recognition!
However, what about after the release?
Push the street!
Big hit the street!
Well, the kind of blood loss!
"To be honest, I'm a bit pity." Jeffrey Katzenberg said suddenly.
The assistant immediately followed up: "What's the matter?"
Jeffery said solemnly: "Not long ago, I also planned to create an animated movie based on the Kung Fu theme of the ancient dynasty, but now Zhuke Wald has given me a step ahead. You say, I can be happy. ?"
assistant:"......."
Is creativity and subject matter cut off?
Ha ha!
This means that Zhu Ke didn't hear it, otherwise he would have a belly laugh!
In the original time and space, the idea of "Kung Fu Panda" officially came from Jeffrey Katzenberg and was produced by DreamWorks. It became one of the company's best works after "Shrek". DreamWorks Animation makes a big profit!
But now, there is nothing, and it has nothing to do with him!
At this moment, Jeffrey Katzenberg was looking at the back of Zhuke's head in the scene, not to mention how bitter he was.
"" The first update is sent.
