Hollywood Starts with Animation

Wald Publishing Company.

Since the beginning of this year, the huge Wald Films has completely split the production and distribution into two companies.

Wald Films has complete production capabilities;

Wald distribution company with global coverage and complete distribution channels;

At this moment, in the conference room of the North American branch of Wald Publishing Company, a group of executives are holding a meeting, but another unexpected person appears here.

—Alexander!

Former Director of the President's Office of the Group Corporation, Chief Assistant to the Chairman;

Now, he has been promoted and resigned from his position. He is currently working in Wald Films, a subsidiary of the group, as the deputy director of the production department.

"Hairma, your distribution company is in a meeting, and I'm a member of Walter Films, is it appropriate?" Alexander hesitated.

Hearing this, Haierma, the first president of Wald Films, waved his hands and said with a smile: "What's inappropriate? Although for now, the group head office has completely separated the production and distribution of Wald Films. Come on, but don't forget, I was a senior director of the administration department of Wald Films before, as the saying goes, we are still a family."

"That's it!"

A director of the overseas distribution department followed up and said: "You have just been transferred to World Films, and you just came to my distribution company, so you can get acquainted with it in advance. Anyway, we will have a lot of dealings in the future."

The voice fell.

The other executives present also expressed their opinions that Alexander's appearance in the conference room would not have any impact.

Of course, this is mainly based on the content of this meeting, and it does not need to be kept secret.

"Okay, then I'll listen to your speech and learn from it." Alexander was no longer hypocritical.

Hailema said suddenly: "The pressure is dead, Warner, you are here this time, you should be tracking the release of the three movies "Reaper 2", "Furious", and "Fast and Furious"?"

"That's right."

Alexander nodded.

2001,

The outbreak of the 911 incident forced the postponement of the release of "Reaper 2", "Furious", and "Fast and Furious", costing tens of millions of dollars. Now that the schedule is suitable, these three films will naturally be pushed to the market as soon as possible.

Alexander came here for this!

"I'll talk about my business later, you guys have a meeting first." Alexander said with a smile.

Hearing this, Hailema nodded.

In the following time, a group of executives from the distribution company reported on the current work of the movie "Kung Fu Panda" and further publicized it in the future.

Europe, Asia, South America, Australia...

Overseas as many as 120 countries and regions will release the "Kung Fu Panda" movie in half a month.

"It's an animated movie, and it's an animated movie for all ages, so it's not going to blow up like Spider-Man, Harry Potter and other special effects blockbusters, but its staying power But it's strong."

"Don't forget, the purchasing power of children is extremely amazing!"

"I just received news from the chain store of SpongeBob SquarePants that in the past week, the cumulative sales of peripheral products of the animated film "Kung Fu Panda" exceeded 1.7 million US dollars; at the same time, authorized agents and dealers in other states also responded in a timely manner. According to the data, the sales of peripheral products exceeded 38 million U.S. dollars, and it is expected to reach at least 100 million U.S. dollars in the next month.”

Haier Ma, president of the publishing company, announced loudly.

Undoubtedly, this is another exciting news!

What?

You said that the hot sale of peripheral products has nothing to do with the distribution company?

In fact, the two are closely related!

The popularity of movies will make peripheral products sell well, and the sales of peripheral products will also promote the popularity of movies. As a distribution company, Wald Distribution Company needs the latest data results to formulate or revise the promotion strategy for movies.

soon!

This short meeting is over.

In the following time, after the other executives left, Haierma, as the president of the distribution company, told Alexander Jane complained.

The movie "Reaper 2" is tentatively scheduled to be released on Halloween this year;

The movie "The Heart of Anger" is tentatively scheduled to be released on Thanksgiving this year;

The movie "Fast and Furious" is tentatively scheduled to be released on Christmas schedule;

Now it is already September, which means that by the end of the year, the entire Wald Distribution Company will be fully operational and fully release these three films.

"Alexander, before the end of September, the focus of our distribution company is still "Kung Fu Panda". You have to understand this." Haierma said in a deep voice.

"I know."

Alexander said: "But Mr. Kevin Fitch told me that in the future... you won't make big announcements about these three movies?"

Hailema frowned, and said earnestly, "Dude, don't forget that movies like "Reaper 2" were supposed to be released last year. Last year, the company lost more than 30 million U.S. dollars because of this."

 …

Walter Films.

Today, Zhu Ke did not appear in the head office of the group, but came to Wald Films. Well, in the editing room at Waldfilm, to be precise.

In the editing room, Zhu Ke is personally in charge of directing a group of editors to make a rough cut of the movie "The Day After Tomorrow".

What about director Roland Emmerich?

He is not here!

Although Roland Emmerich is a top-line commercial director in Hollywood, he has directed and filmed a series of blockbuster films such as "Independence Day" and "Godzilla", and is the director of the movie "The Day After Tomorrow", but, in the past In the producer-centered Hollywood, he still does not have the right to edit movies.

The editing and decision-making power of the film "The Day After Tomorrow" is entirely in the hands of Zhu Ke, the producer of the film.

That's right!

This time, Zhu Ke will personally direct the editing work of "The Day After Tomorrow".

"If I had just traveled back then, even if I had watched the full movie of "The Day After Tomorrow" and done some research on it, I would definitely not be able to do the editing work. But, now?"

"I'm not boasting, I'm fully capable of doing it!"

Zhu Ke is very confident. After all, he has seen countless storms and waves over the years.

Boom boom boom!

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

The new chief assistant, the classmate Villa who loves to stick knives, he walked in.

"What's wrong?" Zucker asked.

Villa nodded and said, "Boss, just now I received an invitation from Mr. Larry Culp, CEO of Danaher Group."

It's him? !

Zhu Ke immediately frowned, but in an instant Zhu Ke squinted his eyes and smiled: "You reply and say that I will attend."

At this moment, it was Villa's turn to be slightly surprised.

You must know that since he served as Zhu Ke's chief assistant, in just a dozen days, there have been more than 100 invitation letters just to invite Zhu Ke, including from different companies, charities, individuals, and even more than a dozen Invitations from overseas countries and regions.

The results of it?

Zhu Ke basically said no!

Even though some invitations were very important, Zhu Ke did not go in person, but arranged for other people to go there.

However......

This time, it took only a few seconds for Zhu Ke to attend the invitation from Danaher Group. You said, wouldn't Villa be surprised?

"You are right. There are many companies that are much stronger than Danaher Group, but I value Danaher Group's current CEO Larry Culp more. Don't underestimate him. He will definitely be a big shot in the future."

Zhu Ke said solemnly.

From 2000 to 2014, Larry Culp successfully transformed Danaher Corporation from an industrial manufacturer into a technology company. Moreover, during his 14 years as the head of Danaher Corporation, the market value and revenue of Danaher Corporation have increased by 5 times.

In 2015, Larry Culp joined General Electric, and a few years later, he became the head of this multi-hundred-billion-dollar monopoly giant! \u003c/div\u003e
