Chapter 458: Master Qiao's Anger
In fact, during the negotiations, 20th Century Fox even revealed that they simply gave the entire project to Jia Yapeng to invest, because in their opinion, the Titanic is a absolutely losing money deal. Only when it sells for a box office of more than 400 million US dollars can it be possible to make a profit.
But how is this possible? A shipwreck + love movie, this is absolutely impossible.
So during the negotiations, 20th Century Fox strongly advised our boss Jia to contract the entire project, but Boss Jia refused.
The reason is very simple. Boss Jia’s entertainment company in the United States cannot afford such a huge movie shooting, and Daqian Entertainment does not have any distribution or channel dealers in the United States. If these are really handed over to Daqian Entertainment, then the 135 million yuan will be wasted.
So Boss Jia forced 20th Century Fox to leave on the ship and threw all the production and preparation of the entire movie to them. This is the right way.
However, Boss Jia will not always be kind and generous, because the US branch of Daqian Entertainment will not do nothing, and everyone in the company will actually participate in the preparation and shooting of this masterpiece.
As long as the entire movie is completed, Daqian Entertainment will evolve into a complete film company, and they will have the ability to prepare a movie independently.
In addition to the two sides having negotiated cooperation on Titanic, the cooperation on Pokemon's first movie has also been negotiated.
From here on, Pokemon's film path and Pokemon movies in history have undergone earth-shaking changes.
The Pokemon movie in history is actually just a simple 2D animated movie. At most, the picture quality is higher than the TV version, and then it is released at a rate of one movie every year. By 2020, there have been 23 theatrical animations.
But such a theatrical animation is not very meaningful to Pokemon, nor is it much promotional value, and the box office is to maintain a balance of revenue and expenditure.
Simply put, this is just a theatrical movie to satisfy the feelings of fans. Even a real wave in the film market cannot be caused, which is something that Boss Jia doesn't want to see.
Such a theatrical version really doesn't make much sense.
This time, since 20th Century Fox offered to buy the copyright of Pokemon's movie, Boss Jia simply decided to play a big game.
The negotiations between the two sides over the Titanic lasted for a total of one day.
But the negotiations surrounding the Pokemon movie version lasted for three days.
Fox means buying the copyright of the Pokemon movie version and then Fox will make a movie, so Boss Jia will earn a little copyright fee. It's so simple.
But Boss Jia quit. Pokemon is still a newborn child now, and every IP must be carefully maintained. Fox is just a movie shooter. If Boss Jia doesn't have the right to watch this movie, God knows what these guys will do.
Therefore, Boss Jia also asked the Pokemon movie version to be filmed in joint venture according to the Titanic model, of which Boss Jia accounted for 60% and 20th Century Fox accounted for 40% of the control.
20th Century Fox showed strong opposition to this. Like Boss Jia, they also disagreed with transferring control of the movie to others. After all, Boss Jia was defeated. After all, 20th Century Fox is professional, Boss Jia is not.
The two parties agreed that Boss Jia invested $20 million and 20th Century Fox invested $15 million, and then Fox occupied 51% of the movie shares and Boss Jia occupied 49% of the shares.
However, Boss Jia has control over the script, which is the bottom line that Boss Jia adheres to. When other rights are not controlled, the control of the script must be in the hands of Boss Jia, otherwise the movie will become the next detective Pikachu.
Another key point is the production of the movie.
Originally, the meaning of 20th Century Fox was to make an ordinary 2D animated movie, but it was rejected by Boss Jia. Boss Jia meant that the movie was handed over to Pixar Studio and made into a 3D animated movie by Pixar Studio.
20th Century Fox was skeptical about this, but Boss Jia strongly asked, and 20th Century Fox agreed. However, when they handed over the business to Pixar Studio, Pixar Studio refused.
Because Pixar Studios is producing Toy Story, the first animated feature film in Pixar Studios' history. In addition, they also have contracts for two animated feature films with Disney, so they rejected the request of 20th Century Fox.
It was actually rejected by Pixar. This was something that Boss Jia didn't expect. 20th Century Fox took the opportunity to propose that it would be better to do second-d animations, and the cost could be saved by half.
But how could Boss Jia admit defeat like this? In the future, the trend of using 3D animation movies is, and he cannot lose at the starting line.
So after a night of hard thinking, Boss Jia made an amazing decision, that is, to open US branches in Daqian Puzzle and Daqian Entertainment, and Dynasty Animation will also establish a Dynasty studio in the United States, specifically responsible for designing and producing 3D animated movies, and then handing over the Pokemon movie to the Dynasty Studio to be responsible for the production.
20th Century Fox was completely shocked by Boss Jia's creativity, and they almost wanted to give up the Pokemon movie. It's okay to draw a 2D animation movie in China, but now they want to make a 3D animation movie directly. How is this possible?
But how could Boss Jia give up Fox like this? After difficult negotiations, Boss Jia and Fox finally reached an agreement.
The Pokemon animation movie was handed over to the American Dynasty Animation Studio, but Boss Jia promised that after the Pokemon animation was released, the profits obtained would be given priority to 20th Century Fox. Only when Fox's $15 million investment was restored, the remaining profits could be returned to the Dynasty.
Simply put, if the Pokemon movie version makes $20 million in profit in the future, then 15 million will be given priority to Fox, so that Fox can take back the capital, and the remaining 5 million will be owned by Boss Jia, and Boss Jia will lose 15 million.
This can be said to be an unequal treaty, and as the price of accepting this treaty, 20th Century Fox must be responsible for helping the dynasty recruit relevant 3D animation talents in the United States.
The so-called recruitment means directly poaching people from Pixar animation studio. After all, the only professional 3D animation studio in the United States is Pixar. If you don’t dig from here, where can you poach people?
Pixar's work salary was still quite bad at this time, because Pixar has not made any profit so far, and all members in the studio are basically in the state of using IC to generate electricity, with a monthly salary of only about $2,000, which is similar to an ordinary worker.
Boss Jia offered a three-fold price, and used $6,000 a month to poach people from Pixar Studio. He also used $300,000 to pay an annual salary of $300,000 to poach the technical director of Pixar Studio. Anyway, under the temptation of Boss Jia's money, a large number of professional talents in Pixar Studio were dug up. By the time Jobs realized, nearly one-third of Pixar's staff had been poached.
At the same time, the Dynasty also directly transferred 100 backbone young talents from China to the United States and joined the American Dynasty Studio. While helping those professional talents, it learned advanced 3D animation production skills, thus starting to cultivate the Dynasty's own special effects team.
After all, a group of birds are worse than a bird in hand.
On the other hand, Pixar's poaching made Boss Qiao so angry that he cursed the dynasty and almost went to court, but there was nothing to sue, and it was finally left alone.
This also directly led to the fact that Pixar's Toy Story, which had just started construction, went straight into a paralysis. It took more than half a year for Pixar Studio to return to normal, and the Toy Story, which was originally scheduled to be released in 1995, was postponed to be released in 1996.
However, this also caused Boss Qiao to hate our Boss Jia deeply. One of them is the son of destiny and the other is the son of time travel. In the future, the two of them will have a fight.
