Hollywood Starts with Animation

Another week has passed.

The first phase of the 15-day youth performing arts department recruitment training launched by Wald Pictures has officially come to an end.

It has attracted as many as 2,000 young people from all over the world and regions. One by one, accompanied by their parents, they participated in round after round of selection.

However, there are only 10 places that can be admitted in the end.

The success rate is only 2%!

"Mom, I was eliminated."

After the final result was announced on the official website, many teenagers who were eliminated and lost, many people shed tears.

A 12-year-old boy, his eyes were filled with tears, his eyes were blurred, and his sobbing could not stop.

"Mom, why didn't they want me, woohoo~" the little boy cried extremely sadly.

The little boy's parents can only continue to comfort.

Mom said distressedly: "Don't cry. Baby, don't cry!"

Dad said, "Baby, this is just the first phase of recruitment. In half a year, Wald Pictures will start the second phase of recruitment. Let's come back then."

the second term?

Hearing this, the little boy's eyes lit up, which made him feel a lot better.

Well, it's the family harmony type.

......

American entertainment is different from traditional Eastern thinking. In the Eastern way of thinking, parents want their children to have a good childhood, but the West is different.

Especially for some parents who do not have a job, their purpose of raising their children is very clear, that is, to make money for their children!

That's right, kids make money!

These underage children, since childhood, have been arranged by their parents to shoot various advertisements, go to acupoints, go to various brokerage companies and studios, and star in a series of film and television dramas and movies. Obviously, the income these children receive goes into the wallets of their parents.

These parents don't work either,

Counting on their children to make money.

In the East, there is a noun - "gnawing the old".

In the West, there is a term - "blood-sucking worm".

Blood-sucking worms refer to those adult parents who do not have regular jobs and use their children as a means of livelihood!

"Clady, you bastard!"

"You are a child star who has been shooting commercials since the age of 4, acting at the age of 6, and has acted in 5 movies so far!"

"But what about the result? You were eliminated!"

"And it was eliminated in the first round!"

"You stupid guy, do you know how much your mother and I spent to train you? It costs a lot of money for piano lessons, dance lessons, and acting lessons every week!"

In a certain family in Los Angeles, a meticulously dressed and well-dressed 30-year-old man, with no quality at all at this moment, scolded his children.

Words...that's an ugly one!

The little child was crying.

However, to no avail. His father was still swearing, with all kinds of ugly words.

"Mumba, stop scolding the child!"

The little boy's mother came over angrily and said, "My son's eyes are swollen from crying. How can he shoot an advertisement tomorrow? If he can't make any money, you should pay the house and car loan!"

Dad Momba moved his mouth and said nothing more.

But.......

The little boy is completely desperate!

Although he is still young and lacks specific identification and understanding of society, one thing he is very sure of is that his own parents are terrible, terrible.

"I say it's their children, but it's more of a tool for their livelihood!"

Sad?

is very sad!

However, there are many such family models in the United States. Not to mention everywhere, at least 500 such examples can be found in Los Angeles alone.

Of course, it's far more than that.

These parents, hehe, are simply blood-sucking worms lying on their children!

You mean, the Minor Child Protection Act?

Don't be kidding, there are too many things like this, and the relevant departments can't manage them!

The well-known children's film series "Home Alone", its starring young boy Macaulay Culkin, is a living example. For him, his parents were like a means of earning a living and an ATM.

......

20th Century Fox Pictures.

"The recent actions of Wald Pictures are really not small!"

"That's right!"

"Since the Oscars, their movie Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon has broken the box office record for a foreign-language American film, breaking the $100 million mark. It can be said to be in and out of the limelight. What's next? Wald Business Day The youth performing arts department was born! Tsk tsk tsk~ This is taking the jobs of those brokerage companies!"

"We have nothing to worry about, it's just a small fight."

"That's right, how much money can a brokerage company make?"

"The top companies in the brokerage industry, such as CAA and William Morris Brokerage, have a maximum annual profit of 100 million US dollars, and they have to pay a lot of manpower and material resources. It's too much!"

"What's more, the management company of Wald Pictures is just some teenage actors. For us, there is no threat."

"It's not us who should be worried. It's Disney! Disney likes to make money from children and minors!"

The establishment of the youth performing arts department by Wald Pictures has basically had no impact on the 20th Century Fox Film Company, which is a big business.

It's just for talk after dinner!

Economic business?

Hehe, these petty profits, the executives of 20th Century Fox really don't like it.

Even Murdoch, the boss of 20th Century Fox Pictures, only pouted after learning the news and said with a smile, "Zuck, it's quite a toss up."

That's right!

In Murdoch's mouth, this is nothing more than a child's play, tossing, nothing more.

For these giant film companies, the brokerage business has the energy and financial resources. They can make more money by shooting a few movies!

......

Disney Group.

The chairman of the group, Michael Eisner, couldn't help but burst out in joy when he saw the news.

Facing his subordinates, Eisner said with a smile: "Our Disney Group's youth performance agency department has spent several years in order to cultivate a group of traffic stars who can become teen idols. "

"And growing to the point where it is today requires a lot of hard work!"

"Warners, 20th Century Fox, Universal, Paramount, Columbia, they are also powerful studios, why don't they do that?"

"They can't do it!"

"They have also tried, but the results? They were all unsatisfactory, and even suffered losses!"

Eisner sneered and said: "I don't deny the ability of Wald Pictures to make stars, but one thing I am very sure about is that once the young actors who have been trained become famous, it will not take long for them to change jobs. Well-known brokerages such as William Morris.”

The brokerage industry in the American entertainment industry is too developed!

Famous actors are almost not tied to film companies, on the other hand, professional brokerage companies can get more compensation for them.

"Youth idols are just traffic. To put it bluntly, they are making quick money. We are professionals in this area!"

Disney chairman Michael Eisner was not at all concerned about Zucker's actions.

........

April 12.

Five days before the release of the film "Shark Shore" directed by Zack Snyder, the youth performance department of Wald Pictures was officially established!

At the same time, the youth performing arts department of Wald Pictures officially changed its name to "Blue Bird Broker" and became an independent subsidiary of Wald Pictures.

Of course, the original foundation of the new company, Jade Bird Brokerage, is itself a little-known brokerage firm, which has now been acquired by Wald Pictures.

The 10 selected teenagers in the first phase also officially signed the contract and entered the Jade Bird Brokerage Company.

" "The second is sent.
