Hollywood Starts with Animation

Chapter 312: Fox abolishes the animation department

, The fastest update to Hollywood’s latest chapters starting from animation!

Warner Bros. Pictures.

Barry Meyer, who had just taken the position of Vice President of Warner Bros. Pictures and took the position of CEO, couldn't help but be stunned when he looked at the report in his hand.

"Boss, what's the matter with you?" the secretary Miss Daisy asked.

"Oh?"

Barry Meyer regained his senses and sighed: "I just have a little regret and sigh. You said that Warner owns the world-renowned comics company DC Comics and owns thousands of superhero copyrights. We have a strong position in the field of comics and animation. , There was a time when it was almost on par with Disney, but...now?"

Miss Daisy was suddenly speechless.

Yes, how strong DC Comics used to be!

However, with the box office failure of "Batman and Robin", the performance of the entire DC Comics has also been greatly reduced. Not only that, even the field of animation is in decline.

The animation market, especially the cinema animation market, is currently dominated by Steve Jobs's Pixar animation family, closely followed by DreamWorks Animation.

"I never thought... In addition to Pixar Animation and DreamWorks Animation, even Water World Animation under the Golden Dawn Entertainment Group has also risen strongly. What are we doing in recent years?" Barry Meyer was extremely depressed.

Why are the six Hollywood giants called the six giants?

Not only do they have historical heritage, but also because they have a complete global distribution channel.

At the same time, various projects and themes of film and television production have always maintained an advantageous position.

Obviously, the emergence of Pixar Animation, DreamWorks Animation, and Water World Animation directly seized and carved up the movie market of cinema animation, and even the six major Hollywood companies were very weak.

Of course, the six powerless companies refer to the three film companies of Warner, Columbia, and Universal;

The other three companies all have their own strong performance in the animation field.

Pixar Animation, behind which is the Disney Group;

DreamWorks Animation is behind the Paramount Group;

Blue Sky Studio, behind which is 20th Century Fox Pictures and News Corporation;

In addition, the Blue Sky Studio, which produced "Ice Age" in the future, has not yet been acquired by News Corporation, but the cooperation between the two parties is also extremely close, and the acquisition will become a reality at any time.

"Disney, Paramount, Fox, either their own company's cinema animations are strong, or their partners are strong, but what about Warner?"

Barry Meyer was slightly worried: "If we can't invest heavily in the animation field, we will soon lose the cinema animation market!"

Upon hearing this, the secretary, Miss Daisy, said in astonishment: "Boss, is it so serious?"

"Yes!" Barry Meyer said firmly

At this moment, Zhu Ke is not here, otherwise he would be surprised.

Barry Meyer's inference is completely correct!

In the future, as of 2020, Warner’s animation department has not produced and produced any well-known cinema animations except for the old-school DC superhero animations.

"Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", "Scooby Doo", "Polar Express"...

Very few!

Moreover, the few animated films that Warner produced in the 21st century were all before 2010. In other words, they will completely abandon the cinema animation film market in the future.

give up?

Do not! To be precise, they were kicked out of the cinema animation film market.

Of course, the future of Sony Columbia and Universal Pictures will be more miserable than Warner in terms of animation films.

........

20th Century Fox Pictures.

As the boss of Rupert Murdoch, the acid sea in his heart set off a stormy sea!

"The animated film "Frozen Planet" produced by our company failed miserably at the box office in the North American market, and the box office gains in overseas markets are even negligible."

"In order to build my own animation company, the money I have paid before and after is completely no less than that of Pixar Animation and DreamWorks Animation, but... how unfair God is!"

"Even the **** guy Zhuke, with "Finding Nemo" has made more than 500 million US dollars in the global box office."

Even if Zhuke and Murdoch have a good friendship, at this moment, Murdoch's heart is full of unhappy.

Acquisition!

"Abolished Fox Pictures' animation department and acquired Blue Sky Animation Studio."

Yes, this is Murdoch's thinking at this time.

Just do it without hesitation.

Within a few days...

In the new round of group meetings of Fox Pictures, Murdoch put forward this idea.

"agree!"

"Agree!"

"Our own animation department is completely useless. It will only waste our money and simply let them all go away!"

"I've said long ago that Chris Mailerdande is just a mouthpiece, and he can't do anything ass, so let him go quickly."

Numerous shareholders and shareholder representatives very much agree with Murdoch's decision.

1. Abolish the animation department of Fox Pictures;

2. Acquiring Blue Sky Animation Studio and turning it into a subsidiary of Fox Pictures;

Once the board meeting is over, the order will take effect immediately.

"what?"

"How can it be?"

"Is this true?!"

The head of Fox's animation department, Chris Meredande, who had just received the decision-making order of the board of directors, was completely dazed, and immediately full of unwillingness.

He was swept out!

Do not!

The hundreds of people in the entire Fox animation department will be swept out.

"I want to see Mr. Murdoch, and I will convince him." Chris Mailedand yelled outside the company.

However... Murdoch, who was burning with anger, did not give him a chance at all.

Don't even give him a chance to meet.

1 day;

2 days;

3 days;

For a week in a row, Chris Meredande almost broke his leg, and no one at Fox Pictures was willing to give him and them a chance to make a comeback.

Ever since, Chris Mailedand, he was angry!

"Good good~"

"You drove me away, one day... I will make you regret it!"

"Disney Animation once drove out Jeffrey Katzenberg~www.novelmtl.com~ and caused the rise of DreamWorks Animation, then I will be like Jeffrey Katzenberg, revenge on Fox Pictures in the future!"

Chris Mailedand made up his mind.

Most people in the world have never heard of his name, but when it comes to the company he will establish in the future, I believe many people will know about it.

——Lighting Entertainment Company!

The well-known lighting entertainment company is good at the production of animated movies. The animated movies produced by it, such as "Despicable Me", "Minions", "The Secret Life of Pets", and "Happy Voice" will be very well-known in the future.

In the original time and space history, Chris Mailedand was swept out by Fox and his team was disbanded. It happened after 2000, during the release of Blue Sky Studio's "Ice Age".

But now, due to the appearance of Zhu Ke, "Finding Nemo" came out ahead of schedule, making Murdoch determined to make an animated film.
