Rebirth In Hollywood

After the reception, John Lasseter didn't leave immediately. He walked to the West Cafe of the Four Seasons Hotel. Since the other party could communicate through his friend, he wouldn't be a stranger. Don't know who the person you are dating is? And what is the purpose?

Under the guidance of the waiter, he came to a quiet partition. Seeing the man sitting at the table, slowly sipping coffee, John Lasseter frowned. How could it be him?

Maybe few people in the general public know him, but as a Hollywood insider, how could John Lasseter not know the helm or tyrant of Walt Disney?

"Sit down, John."

After John Lasseter sat down, the waiter served coffee and took the initiative to stay away from the partition.

"It is said that Pixar's new animated feature is about to be completed?"

Probably because he has been in control of Disney for too long, certain things have become habitually unknowingly, and Michael Eisner seems a little strong.

"It will probably take a while." John Lasseter sipped his coffee slowly.

As a creative creator with an active mind, he hated the atmosphere, the atmosphere that would stifle free thought.

"John, have you ever thought about going back to Disney?" Michael Eisner said his purpose directly without being so hypocritical and polite.

"Back to Disney?" John Lasseter frowned, the other's answer was within his expectations.

In fact, since "Toy Story", many companies have approached him, including Disney's animation department. But he was rejected one by one.

"I remember that you left Disney in 1984 and joined Lucas' company. There are indelible traces of Disney on your resume..." Michael Eisner suddenly laughed and said slowly and powerfully, "Go back Disney, at the helm of Disney's animation division."

His eyes were bright, and the other party was just the executive creative vice president of Pixar. Even if you have some shares of Pixar in your hand, it will never be too much. It is a great honor and temptation to take charge of the animation department of a super giant like Walt Disney...

You know, for half a century, Disney's animation has been the number one in Hollywood, and even the number one in the world.

Unfortunately, Michael Eisner ignored it. He has been suppressing Disney's animation department, which may still be the number one in Hollywood now, but the downward momentum,

Even a layman can see it.

If John Lasseter is not interested, it must be false. He graduated from the California Institute of the Arts, and his first intern job was at Disney. His growth was closely intertwined with Disney. There used to be his youth and dreams.

However, I saw this man sitting across from him, this Disney dictator. John Lasseter's heart faded.

Who is Michael Eisner? Nepotism, illegal use of power, control of the board of directors, and most importantly, he has never liked animated films and has been reducing his investment in animated films. This has long spread throughout the industry.

Also, would he really hand over the power of the animation department to an outsider like himself? John Lasseter believes that when he takes the job on the front foot, the other side will prepare a deputy for him...

If there is no ready-made example to compare, John Lasseter will think about it, the problem is that another person always trusts them, always supports them, even in the most difficult times, even if everyone sees When they were down, he still invested heavily.

If this is the only case, John Lasseter will only think that the other party is a discerning investor when he is grateful.

However, after the other party bought Pixar, except for financial supervision, he did not interfere in any of their decisions, and he completely handed the future of Pixar to his group of idealists.

Pixar's corporate culture, Pixar's philosophy, Pixar's persistence, Pixar's freedom, these are the keys to their success.

Can Walt Disney do this now? Can they do what Ryan Jenkins does?

"Mike, I think... this will take a long time to consider." John Lasseter declined politely.

"I'm waiting for your good news." Michael Eisner stood up and left his last words before leaving, "John, Disney's doors are always open to you."

Looking at the figure of the other party, John Lasseter thought for a while, took out his mobile phone, and dialed the number of the person who would never harass them.

Hanging up the phone, Ryan reclined on the bed and stretched out a long, lazy waist, Michael Eisner would dig Pixar's corner, this is too normal, unfortunately now Disney is not a new century, smart people will not At this point, add it to the muddy water.

In fact, after the success of "Toy Story", it happened from time to time to poach Pixar technicians, and some people also chose to buy out the contract and then change jobs.

However, neither Ryan nor Pixar's executives care much. Hollywood has never been obsessed with film technology. Only constant communication can drive the development of the entire industry.

As long as Pixar maintains its own corporate culture, maintains the stability of core personnel, and properly replaces old and new, it is intentional and harmless.

Besides, it is impossible for Pixar to dominate the entire 3D animation market. Otherwise, not to mention other interest groups, the federal government will be the first to ask for trouble, and the monopoly law is not a decoration.

The core personnel of Pixar are all idealists. Although the ideals are empty in the face of sufficient benefits, the question is, can the current management of Michael Eisner and Disney provide enough benefits?

Ed? Camer, John? Lasseter and Andrew? Stanton and others, not only hold the shares of Pixar, but also the salary and dividends are the top level in the industry.

Will Disney's board of directors let John Lasseter, or a few others, break the balance of Disney's management once again? Michael Ovitz's lesson is in front of us. When the executive whom Michael Eisner urged to resign, not only swept away $200 million in compensation, but also caused the court to order Disney's directors to bear joint and several liabilities. Liability for compensation.

Even Michael Eisner's supporters on the board have to consider whether there will be the next Michael Ovitz.

Also, will other companies give them the freedom that they have given to Pixar's core personnel?

"What are you thinking, so ecstatic?"

Nicole Kidman walked into the bedroom with a few disks in hand, "Need a late night snack?"

"A lion jumped out and bit someone. I was thinking about how to avoid being bitten by it. Well... I can kick him a few times as a counterattack."

Ryan raised his head, and his eyes fell on the Australian girl. Nicole had just taken a shower, her blond hair was wet and scattered behind her head, and the short bathrobe was loosely tied around her body, with the seam of the neckline and the seam of the collar. Her actions show beautiful scenery from time to time.

Because of the hard training, Nicole did not attend the evening reception. She will go to Australia tomorrow. Antonia Kidman has just experienced the pain of breaking up and needs her comfort. It is estimated that she will stay there for a while. time.

Even if it is two lives, the women Ryan has been close to can be counted on a few fingers, the slender and slender body of the Australian diamond girl, and the wild and unrestrained under the cover of coldness, for him now, there is something special about him. Same appeal.

"Does it look good?" Nicole naturally noticed his gaze and knew how to increase the fun and freshness between the two. "Want to see more?"

At first glance, this woman looks as cold as ice, but when she is wild, she looks like a tornado in New Orleans...

I don't know when, Nicole Kidman kept the thin straps of the bathrobe hanging down on both sides. She stood directly in front of Ryan, half-covered, clearly wanting people's life, just in When Ryan's eyes widened, she suddenly turned away, walked to the disk on the small table, and took out a bright red strawberry.

The slender eyes are full of endless charm, narrowed into a slit, and the corners of the eyes and brows are stirring Ryan's heartstrings from time to time, and what is even worse is that the bright red strawberry is sandwiched between two slender fingers, from the pure white. His forehead slowly rolled down, crossing the bridge of his tall nose, soft red lips, and a slender gooseneck...

In the wild, the Australian girl showed her careful side again, she knew how to arouse the interest of the man on the opposite side.

However, just as the atmosphere in the bedroom was about to reach its peak, the phone that Ryan had thrown on the bedside table suddenly rang.

"Ryan, can you turn it off..."

Although he wanted to do so, the number of people who knew his private number was limited, and those who could call at such a late hour must have urgent matters.

"Shh..." Ryan raised his index finger at Nicole and answered the phone, "Pat..."

"Ryan, our people contacted Mr. Spearman, who agreed to hand over the rights to the memoir to Jenkins Pictures, but offered some..."

"price problem?"

"No, he asked for a very low price, and he didn't care about the money. His only request was to donate half of the film's proceeds to several Jewish survivor organizations."

"Promise him, I must get this memoir as soon as possible." Ryan suddenly felt his scalp numb, the wonderful taste almost made him tremble, and he couldn't help but take a long breath, "Hi..."

"What happened, Ryan?"

"No...no..." He slowly mixed his breath, looking from this angle, he could only see the blonde hair scattered on his chest and abdomen, "Pat, and... one more thing, help me make an appointment with Roy. ? Disney, just say I'm asking him to play golf, ASAP."

After hanging up the phone, Ryan looked down, only to see a seductive look in the scattered blond hair, and the long and flexible tongue brought him endless enjoyment. ()
