Hollywood Starts with Animation

"Hollywood starts with animation ()"

"Peter, do you know? I have seen the movie "Angel of Sin" directed by you. Kate Winslet, Melanie Lynskey and the others played a boy and a girl, who will be two young girls who are not good enough to adapt to the environment. The story of a love affair and bitter fruit is very well performed. I watched it more than once, and it was a great experience.”

At the exchange meeting, Zucker took the initiative to chat with Peter Jackson.

Talk about his past movies.

really...

"Have you seen "Angel of Sin" again?" Peter Jackson was slightly surprised.

After all, "Angel of Sin" was a movie released in 1994.

"Of course I've seen it."

Zucker said affirmatively: "Peter, don't forget that the movie "Angel of Sin" you directed won the Silver Lion Award at the 51st Venice Film Festival, even if it was later released in North America, the box office performance Average, but I think it's still a good movie."

touted?

Hehe, talking to people and talking to people and talking to ghosts has now penetrated deep into the bone marrow and has become a skill of Zhu Ke.

If it is gamified, it will inevitably be displayed as - touting ability Lv.10.

"Thank you." Bearded Peter Jackson was very happy.

After all, it's a tout from Hollywood superstar Zucker, and he's enjoying it.

in the next time~

The two really had a good chat, but as for James Cameron and New Line Cinema boss Shay, they were simply forgotten.

Cameron said meaningfully: "Shay, the guy you brought can actually attract Zucker's attention. It seems that he is an amazing person."

Shay sneered: "Say yin and yang in a weird way. Don't you mean that I'm afraid that Peter will make movies for Wald Pictures in the future? Do you think I need to worry about the current strength of my New Line Pictures?"

It is a fact that New Line Pictures is not as powerful as Wald Pictures, but the parent company behind it is the Disney Group!

In order to win over Peter Jackson, Shay paid a lot of money. He firmly believes: Zucker can not give a higher price. After all, Peter Jackson at this time could only be considered a little famous at best. There are not one thousand, but eight hundred such directors in the whole of Hollywood.

He wasn't worried that Peter Jackson would be pulled over by Jukla.

"Hey, it seems that you are quite confident." Cameron laughed.

"Of course." Shay looked like a big proud rooster.

tsk tsk~

Zucker's hearing has always been very sensitive, and this dialogue entered Zucker's ears appropriately.

To win over Peter Jackson?

"It's true, but... it's not about asking him to make movies for Wald Pictures!" Zucker thought to himself.

Peter Jackson's most well-known masterpieces are definitely the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy and "The Hobbit" movie series.

But out of these, you will watch the movie "King Kong" directed by him again?

Hehe, good guy!

The movie "King Kong" with a production cost of over 200 million US dollars almost didn't pay Universal Pictures to death. The movie was released in 2005, and it was not until 2015 that Universal Pictures recovered its losses through the offline market.

"Oh? You even have a special effects company for a movie, is it similar to Industrial Light and Magic?" Zucker said suddenly.

Hearing this, Peter Jackson said proudly: "My special effects company is called Weta Digital. It was established as early as 1993. At the beginning, there was only one computer, but today? There are more than 200 People work for Weta Digital. At the same time, the special effects work for the "Lord of the Rings" movie is also undertaken by my Weta Digital."

Out of the water!

See you in the picture!

That's right, from the beginning to the end, the purpose of Jukla's acquisition of Peter Jackson was the Weta Digital Effects Company under his name.

Whether you admit it or not, in the first 20 years of the 21st century, the most famous and powerful special effects company in the world,

It's Industrial Light and Magic and Weta Digital!

Weta Digital, today's value, but only about 50 million US dollars?

However, as soon as the "Lord of the Rings" movie was released, Weta Digital rose completely, and its market value rose rapidly.

Peter Jackson added: "Mr. Wald, I'm not telling you, I think my Weta Digital is no worse than Industrial Light and Magic. In terms of virtual environment special effects, Industrial Light and Magic is very strong."

"But speaking of motion capture...I think my Weta Digital is the strongest in the world right now!"

When it comes to Weta Digital, Peter Jackson is full of pride.

"yes?!"

Zu Ke pretended to be shocked and said: "You said that, it made me very interested. I wonder if I have the honor to visit your company?"

Peter Jackson was pleasantly surprised: "Welcome, very welcome."

How could he refuse?

As we all know, the strength of Wald Pictures is the top existence under the Big Six in Hollywood, and even the demand for special effects is even higher than that of the Big Six.

Order!

Massive order!

Peter Jackson immediately promised: "Weta Digital will never let you down. For the same special effects, our quotation is much lower than that of ILM."

Zucker nodded.

In fact, Zucker wants to directly take a stake in Weta Digital.

After all, it would pay off handsomely for Zucker.

However, on this occasion today, it is definitely not the time to mention this.

......

"Hello, Mr. Wald, I'm Len Wiseman, nice and honored to meet you."

At the beginning of the exchange meeting, Zhu Ke became the most beautiful cub in the audience.

Whether it is the great director James Cameron, or the boss of New Line Cinema, Shay, or the famous directors Gus Van Sant, Pedro Almodovar, etc., which one of them Take it out, the weight is not as heavy as Zhu Ke.

Zucker is rich, rich!

Even to put it mildly, all the people who participated in the exchange event today would not be able to keep up with Zhu Ke's wealth.

In the European and American world, money means social status.

The wealthy with a net worth of more than 10 billion, even the American government has to give face.

This is the world where capital is king!

"Mr. Wald, I'm Len Wiseman, and I'm currently a film editor." Len Wiseman, who was less than 30 years old, recommended himself.

Zucker nodded and said, "I know you, I heard that you are still a director, what? Are you interested in being a director again? You know, my Wald Pictures is very happy to give young people a chance."

"Really? Oh no, I shouldn't have doubted your words. Thank you, thank you very much. If I want to be a director again, I will definitely go to Wald Pictures, thank you for this opportunity."

Len Wiseman was very excited.

At first, he thought Zucker was joking. However... Zucker gave Le him two phone numbers.

One: Kevin Feige's phone number;

Second: Zucker's own phone number.

All of this shows that Zucker is not joking, but really gave him the opportunity to be the director. How could he hold back his excitement, you say?

Zucker himself and Wald Pictures have, in recent years, been notoriously good at finding directors.

Zach Snyder, Christopher Nolan, etc., are all star directors brought up by Wald Pictures, and now they are all well-known existences.

In the "Underworld" series of movies, Zucker is still quite envious.

" "The second is sent. Thank you woofer book friends for the reward again.
