Chapter 347

After the reception was over, John Lasseter did not leave immediately. He walked to the West Cafe of the Four Seasons Hotel. Since the other party could send a message through his friend, he would not be a stranger. Don't know who the person who is dating you is? What is the purpose?

Guided by the waiter, he came to a quiet partition. John Lasseter frowned when he saw the person sitting at the table and slowly sipping coffee. How could it be him?

Perhaps few people in the general public know him, but as a Hollywood insider, how could John Lasseter not know the helm or tyrant of Walt Disney?

Sit down, John.

After John Lasseter sat down, the waiter served coffee and moved away from the partition.

It is said that Pixar's new animated feature film is about to be completed?

Probably because he has been in control of Disney for too long, some things have become a habit without knowing it, and Michael Eisner seems a bit strong.

It will probably take a while. John Lasseter sipped his coffee slowly.

As a creator with an active mind, he absolutely hates this atmosphere, which restricts free thought.

John, have you ever thought about returning to Disney? Michael Eisner directly stated his purpose without being so hypocritical or polite.

Back to Disney? John Lasseter frowned, and the other party's answer was within his expectations.

In fact, since Toy Story, many companies have approached him, including Disney's animation department. But he rejected them one by one.

I remember that you left Disney in 1984 and joined Lucas's company. There are indelible traces of Disney on your resume... Michael Eisner suddenly laughed, and said slowly and forcefully, Back Disney, running Disney's animation division.

His eyes are burning, and the other party is just the executive vice president of creative works of Pixar. Even if you hold some Pixar shares in your hands, it will never be too much. It is a great honor and temptation to be in charge of the animation department of a super giant like Walt Disney...

You know, for half a century, Disney's animation has been number one in Hollywood, and even number one in the world.

Unfortunately, Michael Eisner ignored it. He has been suppressing Disney's animation department. The current Disney animation department may still be number one in Hollywood, but the downward momentum,

Even laymen can see it.

If John Lasseter is not tempted, it must be a lie. He graduated from the California Institute of the Arts, and his first intern job was at Disney. His growth is closely entwined with Disney. His youth and dreams were left there.

However, seeing this man sitting opposite, this Disney dictator. John Lasseter's heart softened.

Who is Michael Eisner? Cronyism, illegal use of power, control of the board of directors, and most importantly, he has always disliked animated films and has been reducing his investment in animated films. This has already spread throughout the industry.

Also, would he really hand over the power of the animation department to an outsider like himself? John Lasseter believes that if he jumps to work, the other party will prepare a deputy for him...

If there is no ready-made example for comparison, John? When he failed them, he still invested huge sums of money.

If it was just this, John Lasseter would only think that the other party was a discerning investor while being grateful.

However, after the other party bought Pixar, he did not interfere with any of their decisions except for financial supervision. He completely entrusted the future of Pixar to his group of idealists.

Pixar's corporate culture, Pixar's philosophy, Pixar's persistence, and Pixar's freedom are the keys to their success.

Can the current Walt Disney do this? Can they do what Ryan Jenkins did?

Mike, I think...it will take a long time to think about it. John Lasseter politely refused.

I'm waiting for your good news. Michael Eisner stood up and left his last words before leaving, John, the door of Disney is always open to you.

Looking at the other person's figure in the distance, John Lasseter thought for a while, took out his mobile phone, and dialed the number of the person who would never harass them.

After hanging up the phone, Ryan reclined on the bed and stretched his waist. Michael Eisner would poach Pixar's corners. Join this pool of muddy water at this time.

In fact, after the success of Toy Story, digging Pixar technicians happened from time to time, and some people also chose to buy out the contract and then quit.

However, neither Ryan nor the top executives of Pixar paid much attention to it. Hollywood has never been shy about film technology. Only continuous communication can drive the development of the entire industry.

As long as Pixar maintains its corporate culture, maintains the stability of core personnel, and properly replaces the old and new, it is intentional and harmless.

Besides, it is impossible for Pixar to dominate the entire 3D animation market, otherwise, not to mention other interest groups, the federal government will be the first to cause trouble, and the monopoly law is not just a show.

The core staff of Pixar are all idealists. Although ideals seem empty in the face of sufficient benefits, the question is, can the current Michael Eisner and Disney's management provide enough benefits?

Ed Kammel, John Lasseter, Andrew Stanton and others not only hold shares in Pixar, but also have the highest salaries and dividends in the industry.

Will Disney's board of directors allow John Lasseter or a few others to upset the balance of Disney's management again? The lesson of Michael Ovitz is right in front of us. When the high-level executive whom Michael Eisner insisted on was forced to resign, he not only took away 200 million US dollars in compensation, but also caused the court to order the directors of Disney to bear joint and several liabilities. liability.

Even Michael Eisner's supporters on the board have to consider whether there will be another Michael Ovitz.

Also, will other companies give them the freedom that I have given to Pixar's core personnel?

What are you thinking, so lost in thought?

Nicole Kidman walked into the bedroom, holding a few diskettes in her hand, Need a midnight snack?

A lion jumped out to bite someone. I was thinking how to avoid being bitten by it. Well... I can kick him a few times as a counterattack.

Ryan raised his head, and his eyes fell on the Australian girl. Nicole had just taken a shower, her blond hair was damp, and it was loosely tied behind her head. Her movements reveal beautiful scenery from time to time.

Because of the hard training, Nicole did not attend the reception at night. She will go to Australia tomorrow. Antonia Kidman has just experienced the pain of breaking up and needs her comfort. She will probably stay there for a while time.

Even in two lifetimes, the women Ryan has been close to can be counted on a few fingers. The slender and slender body of the Australian diamond girl, and the wild and unrestrained under the glamor are very important to him now. same general attraction.

Does it look good? Nicole naturally noticed his gaze, knowing how to increase the fun and freshness between the two, Do you want to see more?

This woman looks as cold as ice at first glance, but when she is wild, she looks like a tornado in New Orleans...

I don't know when, Nicole Kidman tied the thin ribbon of her bathrobe, and it fell on both sides. She stood directly in front of Ryan, with a half-covered appearance, clearly wanting someone's old life. When Ryan's eyes widened, she turned around suddenly, walked to the disk on the small table, and took out a bright red strawberry from it.

The slender eyes are full of endless charm, narrowed into a slit, and the corners of the brows of the eyes still stir Ryan's heartstrings from time to time. What's more terrible is that the bright red strawberry is sandwiched between the two slender fingers. His forehead rolled down slowly, across the tall nose bridge, soft red lips, and slender gooseneck...

In the wild, the Australian girl showed her careful side again, she knew how to arouse the interest of the man opposite her.

However, just when the atmosphere in the bedroom was about to reach its climax, the cell phone that Ryan threw on the bedside table suddenly rang.

Ryan, can you turn it off...

Although he really wanted to do this, there were only a few people who knew his private number, and those who could call at such a late hour must have urgent matters.

Shh... Ryan pointed his index finger at Nicole and connected the phone, Pate...

Ryan, our people got in touch with Mr. Spielman, and he agreed to hand over the rights to the memoir to Jenkins Films, but offered some...

The price?

No, the price he asked for was extremely low, and he didn't care about the money. His only request was to donate half of the film's proceeds to several Jewish survivor organizations.

Promise him, you must get this memoir as soon as possible. Ryan suddenly felt his scalp tingling, and the wonderful taste almost made him tremble, so he couldn't help but take a long breath, Hiss...

What happened, Ryan?

No...no... He slowly adjusted his breath, from this angle, he could only see the blond hair scattered on his chest and abdomen, Pate, there is one more thing, help me make an appointment with Roy Disney, just say I'll take him to golf, as soon as possible.

After hanging up the phone, Ryan looked down, only to see the stunning eyes shining through the scattered golden hair, and the long and flexible tongue brought him endless enjoyment. ()
