Hollywood Starts with Animation

"came back!"

"Finally back in Los Angeles!"

The Rolla plane had just arrived at Los Angeles International Airport when Zucker made a decision.

"I'm going to rest for half a month!"

That's right!

Since the beginning of 2001, Zhu Ke has been fully devoted to his work, either allocating options to the meritorious people of Wald Pictures, or busy with the strategic planning of Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group. , but also to deal with big push things such as Under Armour, Gale Capital, Jin Shuguang Publishing, Seattle Industrial Park, and Google.

"Even with the help of Alexander, Little Baggio, and Seos, I'm still half dead from exhaustion!"

In fact, sometimes, Zhu Ke has the urge to stop and rest, after all, he has enough money, and he should enjoy life well, but people are in the rivers and lakes, can't help themselves!

Zucker wants to take a break, you ask CEO Victor if he agrees?

Donna Langley, Kevin Feige, Jeff Weiner, Domino...  

One is counted as one, and they will never agree or compromise.

There are a large number of people who eat with Zucker, as many as tens of thousands. They will never let Zucker stop. Well, even if Zucker stops voluntarily, they will push Zucker forward desperately!

"My hard work!"

Zu Ke was sore and happy, giving himself a half-month vacation was already the limit.

"Boss, I have to say, you want to take a break now, I guess you can't? Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group has hundreds of documents that need your signature." Alexander poured cold water on Zu Ke.

After speaking, Alexander took out a stack of documents from his briefcase.

It is estimated that there are hundreds of pages!

Alexander said solemnly: "Boss, this is only part of it. To be precise, this is at most the tip of the iceberg."

Zucker's forehead was full of black lines.

Sure enough....rest can't be done!

Alexander continued: "Boss,

These documents are urgent documents and need to be reviewed and processed as soon as possible. "

Zhu Ke was afraid and patted his forehead, waved his hand and said, "Alexander, now I need to rest, as for these documents, I can't wait to throw them all into the trash can immediately, immediately and eagerly, and then set a fire to burn them. clean."

"But boss... these documents really need to be approved as soon as possible." Alexander weakly fought back.

Zucker's mouth twitched.

How to do?

I can only put down the idea of ​​vacation and deal with these tasks immediately.

Whether it is Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group, LinkedIn, or even any company under the name of Zhu Ke, it is now like a fast-moving train, madly speeding on the track, and it is difficult to stop.

Even if Zucker wanted to brake, he couldn't!

In this way, we can only bite the bullet and move forward, move forward, and move forward!

........

Soon.

Under the urging of Alexander like a dog skin plaster, Zhu Ke just got off the plane and could not even go home. He could only go to the headquarters of Jinshuguang Entertainment Group to deal with a bunch of busy work at hand.

busy! busy! busy!

It took three full days for Zhu Ke to successfully handle the pile of things at hand.

"Boss, you can take a vacation now. However, you must also understand that according to the current situation, your vacation will not exceed one week." Alexander said with a straight face.

"I know, I know."

At this moment, Zhu Ke felt a headache when he saw Alexander.

Having a dedicated subordinate can sometimes make people speechless.

dong dong dong~

At this moment, the door of Zucker's office was knocked.

Victor Jones, CEO of Golden Dawn Entertainment Group, walked in.

"Boss, this is a fax just sent by Kevin Feige from Wald Pictures. I think you need to take a look." Victor said with a smile.

"Oh?"

Zhu Ke was puzzled, but also a little happy.

For now, the job that really piques Zucker's interest is the film and television industry.

No way, this is true love!

"Today is mid-March, and it's not long before the Oscars ceremony held on March 25. We have been nominated for three films in total. They are Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Spider-Man, and Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone."

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon won 10 nominations, and Spider-Man and Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone won Best Visual Effects and Best Costume Design respectively, for a total of 6 nominations."

Victor said: "Judging from the current publicity exposure, the only film that can win the 75th Academy Awards is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon."

Hearing this, Zu Ke couldn't help but pouted: "These old school guys are still so unpopular, they even hate commercial movies!"

It's almost a well-known fact that commercial films are not favored by the Oscars.

Throughout 2000, the "Spider-Man" and "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" movies produced by Wald Pictures achieved great success at the box office and were called box-office bombs, but they wanted to It's almost impossible to win an Oscar.

Well, even if it wins, it's at best the fringe awards for best visual effects, best costume design, best sound, best editing, and so on.

Best Actor/Actress, Best Director, Best Picture, these four major awards are almost insulated from commercial films.

"Ha ha!"

Zucker sneered: "If it weren't for the empty showroom of Wald Pictures, I wouldn't want to fight for these Oscars."

To be honest, Zhu Ke, who has money flowing in his bones, is not because he attaches great importance to awards such as the Oscars. There is really no way.

In the honorary showroom of Wald Pictures, there is not a single statuette.

It doesn't sound good!

"Oh yes, boss, this is the current North American box office revenue of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Believe me, you will feel much better after watching it." Victor laughed.

The box office report of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is in Zu Ke's hands.

really.......

After watching the North American box office data of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", Zu Ke's face immediately burst into joy.

"Mr. Jones, you still have a way. The success of film and television entertainment is the best medicine for the boss!" Alexander on the side also laughed.

Zhu Keyang raised the report in his hand with a smug expression on his face: "You are all right, it's like a roundworm in my stomach. However, I have to say that the performance of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is really good enough!"

The film "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" exploded in the North American market!

The film officially landed on the North American cinema market on December 27, 2000. After a round of small-scale screenings, it was released on a large scale on January 22. The science fiction of this film... oh no, it should be a martial arts element, which will definitely make the eyes of old and beautiful audiences who have not experienced the baptism of Chinese martial arts culture bright.

Bamboo forest fighting, cliff jumping, flying over the walls...

These elements, which appear to be somewhat aesthetically fatigued by eastern audiences, have attracted a large number of old and beautiful moviegoers during this period.

To date, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" has grossed more than $89 million in the North American market.

"Huh, this is a good result!"

"As far as the current box office performance is concerned, it has surpassed the "Beautiful Mind" movie and has become the highest-grossing 'foreign language film' in North America. If it wins a few more Oscars and promotes it, its box office in North America will exceed 100 million. Steady!"

Zucker smiled triumphantly.

" "The second is sent.
