So he thought for a moment and said, "Accept, you say, what price do you offer?"

"George, aren't you going to play with me? I think you're pretty talented in special effects for movies, if we can join forces......"

Wu Chengxiao looked at him and said, but before he finished speaking, he saw Lucas waving his hand, "Oh no!

[Don't call me such a money-burning loser!] Lucas added in his heart. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Oh, that's a pity!" Wu Cheng shrugged.

"I'm glad I don't regret it at all!" he said to himself again.

After thinking about it, Wu Cheng said again: "You can think as much as you think is appropriate! After all, you know more about industrial magic light, don't you?"

Lucas thought for a moment and said, "So, what about fifteen million?"

He thought: [Anyway, he is so rich, it's okay to give more, and when he looks back on this money, the two of them will score it!]

Wu Cheng listened, the corners of his lips couldn't help twitching slightly, and said, "Do you think it's appropriate?"

"Then, you give me eight million. ”

“……”

Wu Cheng saw on the information of the Qiao gang leader that in the original time and space, the Qiao gang leader only used 10 million to buy the animation effects studio separated from the Industrial Magic Light Company.

Although it is said that Lucas was divorcing his wife at that time, so he was in urgent need of money, so he sold this animation production department to Joe's gang.

And Lucas's bid at that time was said to be 30 million US dollars, and was later pressed to 10 million by Joe's gang leader. It can be seen that Qiao has been running the business for so many years, and how slippery his bargaining skills are.

And now, he Wu Cheng bought it himself, and it actually cost more than 13 million.

Although it seems that Lucas didn't scream nonsense, after all, compared to the 'supposed' data of the original time and space, it was half less! However, in Wu Cheng's opinion, he was still accidentally treated as a rich and willful loser by Lucas, and he was wronged!

So he smiled and said, "Man, I'll give you up to six million, that is, ten million to buy this department." You have to know that you're going to make this department redundant. As long as I take over the people you laid off, it's easy to set up a studio, which may be technically inferior, but I have time for them to hone it slowly. ”

"Oh my! Honestly, you are such a bloodsucking capitalist, I swear that I will never talk to you about business in the future!" Lucas cried out, "Okay! Six million is six million! At least the investment in "Falling from the Sky" that my film company is going to make. ”

Wu Cheng was right, he was already preparing to lay off employees anyway. What's more, Lucas knows very well that Wu Cheng is not only rich, but also very willful, if he turns around and runs to the industrial magic light to wave a hoe twice, it is estimated that many people will be willing to run to work for him.

Lucas had no doubt that he would not be able to do such a thing.

So, it's better to just do it!

"Hehe, happy cooperation!" Wu Cheng smiled: "By the way, who is the head of that department now?" or Ed Catmoor?"

"Well, it's still him. As he spoke, he shook hands with Wu Cheng, "Happy cooperation!"

Wu Cheng nodded and said, "That's right, I also invited him today, and when he comes, I'll talk to him, and then I'll leave everything after that to him to deal with!

Lucas pointed at him and scolded with a smile: "You guy, I have to reorganize this department when I go back." Although there are not so many people, there is a need for some. Also, Edco is a very good person in charge. ”

Wu Cheng smiled and said, "Of course I know this!"

Then he added in his heart: [It's a pity, he's not worth 10 million in your heart!]

The entire department adds up to just over a thousand, and Ed Catmull is clearly not worth that number.

"Hey, guys, are you talking about something interesting?"

Ovitz walked over with a glass and asked with a smile.

Wu Cheng and Lucas turned their heads to look, and then shrugged their shoulders and spread their hands in unison.

Trade secrets!

After the most important things are done, the next thing is naturally the time to have fun together.

However, Wu Cheng is somewhat curious and expectant, after the loss of Pixar, what is the Qiao gang leader going to play when he goes back?

These things are not recorded in his materials, and Wu Cheng does not know.

After chatting with Ovitz and the others for a while, Wu Cheng met with Ed Catmull.

When the waiter who was greeting him at the door saw the name written on his invitation, he said, "Mr. Catmoor, please come with me, Mr. Wu has something to explain." ”

Catmoor is a little strange, of course he knows who 'Mr. Wu' refers to, and in this Hollywood, as long as 'Wu' or 'Cheng' is mentioned, everyone knows who it is.

It's just that although Wu Cheng is his boss, the relationship between them is at most a nodding acquaintance. He rarely came to participate in Wu Cheng's gatherings, only occasionally.

It's not that he doesn't want to come, it's that Wu Cheng didn't invite him!

Speaking of which, he was just a department head, and he was also the head of a department at the Industrial Magic Light Company. Although the Industrial Moguang Company has Wu Cheng's shares, it is not he who controls it. If he was the department head of DreamWorks, then his status in front of Wu Cheng would definitely be different.

So, he was a little strange, what did Wu Cheng want to say to him?

If there's something, wouldn't it be more direct to talk to Lucas?

Lucas will be here for tonight's party!

Just thinking about it, he walked into the hall and swept around, and saw Lucas and Wu Cheng sitting on the sofa in the corner chatting, there was only one Ovitz next to him, and the others didn't seem to disturb their thoughts, chatting about their own days and drinking their own wine.

When Catmoor was invited to the second floor, Wu Cheng naturally saw him, so he smiled at Catmoor, got up and said to Lucas and Ovitz: "Ed is here, I'll go talk to him!"

Lucas made a gesture of please, and Ovitz waited for Wu Cheng to leave, and then asked Lucas, "I remember, he seems to be your industrial magic light person......!

"Isn't that weird?" Lucas shrugged his shoulders and said, "All I can say is that guy is playing the money game again." I think, in a few days, you'll understand!"

Seeing that Lucas didn't want to say more, Ovitz had no choice but to shrug his shoulders and spread his hands.

Upstairs, Wu Cheng walked into the study, and Catmoor, who was sitting in the study waiting for him, stood up when he saw him, "Cheng, is there anything wrong with me?"

Wu Cheng nodded, then stretched out his hand and pressed it, motioned for him to sit down, and said, "I discussed with Lucas before, and decided to separate the animation effects production department you are responsible for from the Industrial Magic Light Company, and reorganize an animation film production company, and you will be in charge." ”

Ed Catmoor was a little stunned, and the two or three sentences were a bit informative.

"So, what are your thoughts and suggestions?" Wu Cheng asked again.

Catmoor was still stunned, apparently not recovering from the message.

After a pause, he said, "Accept, I don't have auditory hallucinations!"

Wu Cheng shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, "Obviously not!"

Catmoore wondered, "But, I know George, there's no way he's going to start an animated film production company." When we were working on the 3D animated short film Andre and Willy, he didn't support it, even though it made sense. Because it is clear that the current 3D technology cannot support long-form animated films, there are many technologies that need to be solved......"

Wu Cheng smiled: "I forgot to tell you that George did not participate in this newly formed animated film company, and it is my personal company." George and I said that I was starting this animation company just to do some experimentation and make some animated shorts to coax my kids. ”

Wu Cheng said, shrugging his shoulders, while Catmoor opened his mouth, a little speechless.

Then Wu Cheng continued: "However, this is only one of my purposes, if people don't have dreams, then what's the difference between them and salted fish? The short film just allows you to practice your hands and hone your skills, my goal is to really make a feature-length animated film, and it is a feature-length animated film that uses 3D technology completely." Of course, I know that the process can be slow, maybe five, ten, or even longer. However, I can afford to wait. ”

Catmoor couldn't help but nodded, Wu Cheng said that 'if people don't have dreams, what is the difference between them and salted fish', he felt the same way.

However, he still reminded: "But boss, this cost may not be small!"

From this 'boss', it can be heard that he has accepted the job offered to him by Wu Cheng and put himself in a correct position. But he still thinks that he should first declare his worries in advance, although their boss is very rich, whether he is willing to burn money like this has to be said.

Wu Cheng smiled: "I also make movies, although I have never participated in the management of the Industrial Magic Light Company, but I naturally know how much money is burned in special effects." So, are you ready to take over this new company?"

Catmoore secretly clenched his fists, and finally nodded, "Boss, please feel free to leave it to me! Because, that's my dream, too!"

Wu Cheng smiled and said, "Very good! Then, this is the first task I give you." ”

As he spoke, he shoved a document in front of him. Inside the document, there is the animation logo of Donglong International Film Company. The logo had always been two-dimensional, and now he wanted them to change to a 3D one. Regardless of the fact that this is just a short mark, if they can successfully make that dragon, its technology will definitely be able to take it to the next level.
