Chapter 1332 The wolf is here

On October 23th, the animated film "Shrek" jointly produced by Hong Kong Kumho Film Group and DreamWorks was officially released in [-] countries around the world. Before the release, some media revealed that the youngest successful screenwriter in Hollywood , Hong Kong Kumho Film Group President "Fang" commented on this film as "definitely worth watching", which attracted the attention of fans.Regarding the media exposure, the spokesperson of the Hong Kong Kumho Film Group Company did not deny it in the media interview, and of course he did not admit it. This made more people very curious about what kind of cartoon it is. Can get such a high evaluation of "Fang".

"Shrek" achieved extremely dazzling box office results in the first week of its release, with a North American box office of more than 2000 million U.S. dollars, making it the weekly box office champion in the North American film market in one fell swoop, and the global box office is as high as nearly 6000 million. It broke many records in the history of cartoons, became an unexpected dark horse at the box office, and won numerous praises and praises.Among the many praises of many film critics, "mocking all the classic fairy tales and overturning the stereotyped impression of fairy tales" has won the most recognition from the audience.

And it is precisely because of this sentence that many middle-aged Americans who grew up watching Disney animation are willing to pay for tickets to enter the movie theater to see how "Shrek" mocks all classic fairy tales, And subvert the stereotyped impression of fairy tales that ordinary people have, and they will naturally tell their feelings to more people around them after laughing out loud throughout the audience, attracting more people to enter the cinema.This virtuous circle makes the box office of "Shrek" look full of stamina, and it also annoys Disney Animation, the most successful animation company in history.Disney has created many classic animated characters, and naturally it has become the most ridiculed object in "Shrek".When people see those hilarious plots in "Shrek", they will always recall the corresponding characters in Disney animation. Although this is also a kind of publicity, Disney would rather not!This is clearly stepping on the rhythm of Disney's leadership!

Especially when they thought that their cooperation with Hong Kong Kumho Film Group Co., Ltd. was rejected by the other party, and Jeffrey Katzenberg, who was in charge of animation production at DreamWorks, had an old grievance with Disney. Disney was very unhappy. calm down.

And when the major shareholder of Pixar Animation Studio became the Hong Kong Kumho Film Group Company, Jobs became the shareholder of the Hong Kong Kumho Film Group Company, and the news came that the major shareholder of DreamWorks became "Fang", which made Disney even more excited. The high-level executives were furious, not only because of Hong Kong Kumho Film Group's "taking advantage of the situation" and "adding insult to injury".It is a kind of panic from the heart.

For a long time, in Hollywood, and even in the global film market, Disney has always been the one that stands out in terms of animated films, although in recent years, the quality of Disney's works has declined.But its dominance remains unchallenged.However, when the Hong Kong Kumho Film Group acquired the animation production capabilities of Blue Sky Studios, Pixar Animation Studios, and DreamWorks, Disney felt that the cornerstone of its throne had been shaken.

In fact, it is not only Disney that feels its status is threatened, but many film companies in Hollywood are also exclaiming that the wolf is coming.The miraculous rise of Hong Kong Kumho Film Group Company has already made Hollywood film company bosses feel that their wallets are threatened, but its rise is too fast.The bosses of these companies have not yet figured out how to suppress it.Hong Kong Kumho Film Group Company has won a large number of loyal fans for itself in the global film market.Moreover, the cooperation between Hong Kong Kumho Film Group Corporation and Hollywood film companies, and the conflicts between these Hollywood companies are also full of contradictions.This makes it impossible for these Hollywood film companies to work together, and it also gives Hong Kong Kumho Film Group a chance.Now, the Hong Kong Kumho Film Group Company has not only achieved world-renowned achievements in live-action films, but also stepped into the field of animation films, and at the same time is constantly expanding its scale. How can this not make these Hollywood films Companies were shocked.

Of course, there are those who are shocked, and there are also those who are secretly delighted, such as Columbia Pictures, Kingfisher Film Group and MGM Films, although the strength of Hong Kong Kumho Film Group will definitely affect their box office Income, but because of the cooperative relationship, Hong Kong Kumho Film Group is stronger on the whole, and the gains they get are still greater than the losses.Moreover, the Kingfisher Film Group Company was originally a second-rate and lower-level film company. If it were not for a series of cooperation with the Hong Kong Kumho Film Group Company, it would not have reached the scale it is today. It cannot be regarded as a purely American film company. Their bosses can be said to be outsiders from Hollywood. Therefore, they also need the support of Hong Kong Kumho Film Group.

Fang Mingyuan put down the phone, smiled, and turned his gaze back to the documents on the table. Gore, the president of Jade Bird Film Group, was the last one among the three companies to call to express his congratulations. The tangled mood of the company's top executives.If you stay away from Hong Kong Kumho Film Group, it means that there will be no cooperation opportunities in the future. If you stay close to Hong Kong Kumho Film Group, you may have to stand on the opposite side of many Hollywood film companies. The executives of the Jade Bird Film Group Company are somewhat difficult to choose.However, it seems that they finally decided to stand with Hong Kong Kumho Film Group, which is a good thing.

When it was announced that the Hong Kong Kumho Film Group and himself would be in charge of Pixar Animation Studio and DreamWorks, Fang Mingyuan had already thought about the possible reaction of the Hollywood film company.However, we cannot give up the development of Hong Kong Kumho Film Group just because of their reaction. Although this will attract the wind and attract the dissatisfaction of many other Hollywood film companies, it will also bring obvious benefits at the same time.

First of all, it has further consolidated the leading position of Hong Kong Kumho Film Group and itself among these allied companies. With strong strength, it is a normal result to be stronger in the subsequent cooperation process.This is also the decision made by Fang Mingyuan, Yu Qiuxia and others after repeated discussions. Although the Hong Kong Kumho Film Group Company has established a firm foothold, the time is short after all, and in terms of film talents, it still needs Hollywood personnel, whether it is Neither the country nor Hong Kong can provide a sufficient number of high-quality talents. If we want to continue to develop stably, then allies are a must.Therefore, in the subsequent filming, it is still necessary to pull the Kingfisher Film Group, MGM Films and Columbia Films, so as to ensure that in the face of possible counterattacks by other Hollywood film companies, they have enough strength to fight back. face.Moreover, it would also take advantage of the existing resources of Halcyon Film Group, MGM Films and Columbia Pictures.And in this way, Hong Kong Kumho Film Group will have enough reasons and strength to claim the biggest piece of the cake when multiple parties cooperate in the shooting of new films in the future.

Secondly, it once again clarifies the position of Hong Kong Kumho Film Group in the Hong Kong and mainland film industry!Hong Kong Kumho Film Group has always focused its work on Hollywood. Although it has produced some localized films, they are not comparable to Hollywood blockbusters in terms of quantity, quality, influence, or box office.Now that the filming of "Hero" is going to start and some of the energy will be turned to China, then these film companies in Hong Kong and China must understand the gap between the two sides!Because in many cases, in many fields, there will be no substantive conflicts between the two parties with too large a gap-when you feel that you have to look up to a person, you will no longer have the ability to compare your height with him thought.

Fang Mingyuan signed the document, handed it out and said, "Tomorrow, the company's spokesperson will hold a press conference to officially announce that Peter Jackson has joined Hong Kong Kumho Film Group as a contracted director, and will be on the set of "Hero" As my assistant. By the way, the news that we will start shooting the "Hobbit" trilogy, the prequel to "Lord of the Rings" at some point in the future can also be released." The copyright of "The Hobbit" is on New Line In the hands of the company and MGM, after completing the cooperation of "The Lord of the Rings" and taking control of MGM, Fang Mingyuan does not think that New Line Films will reject the cooperation of "The Hobbit", even if its major shareholder It's Time Warner.

"Yes, I'll go and notify you right now." A sweet female voice came from next to Fang Mingyuan's ear, which made Fang Mingyuan startled, and then he noticed that it was Guo Qing'er who was standing next to him and took the document—she had officially joined the support team. Zheng Jiayi's assistant team.

"Qing'er, are you still used to it here?" Fang Mingyuan put down the pen in his hand and smiled.Being his assistant is not an easy task, and being an assistant to Zheng Jiayi and Li Xintong is also very challenging.

"Fortunately, Sister Jiayi took good care of me. Hee hee, I will help Brother Mingyuan soon." Qing'er said with a smile, she could see Fang Mingyuan every day instead of having to wait for him to come back In Hong Kong, she had to go to Guo's house to see her, and she already felt very happy.However, in this way, she also felt Fang Mingyuan's busyness firsthand.

"You have to eat food at one bite, and you have to walk step by step on the road. You don't have to be too impatient." Fang Mingyuan looked at her blooming delicate face, and he was in a good mood. (to be continued~^~)
