In fact, during the negotiations, 20th Century Fox even revealed the idea that they would simply give the entire project to Jia Yapeng for investment, because in their opinion, the Titanic was an absolutely loss-making deal. A film that can only be recouped if it sells more than $400 million at the box office.

But how is this possible? A movie of shipwreck + love, this is absolutely impossible.

Therefore, during the negotiations, 20th Century Fox tried to persuade our Boss Jia to simply contract the entire project, but Boss Jia refused.

The reason is very simple, it is impossible for Boss Jia's entertainment company in the United States to afford such a huge film shooting job, and Daqian Entertainment does not have any distribution and channel providers in the United States, if these are really handed over to Daqian Entertainment, then the 135 million will really be wasted.

So Boss Jia still forcibly left the 20th Century Fox on the ship, and dumped the entire production and preparation of the film to them, which is the right path.

However, Boss Jia will not always be kind and generous, because Daqian Entertainment's Miguo branch will not be idle, and everyone in the company will be effectively involved in the preparation and filming process of this huge production.

As long as the whole movie is finished, Daqian Entertainment will evolve into a complete film company, and then they will have the ability to prepare a movie independently.

In addition to the cooperation between the two sides on the Titanic, the cooperation for the first Pokemon movie was also negotiated.

From here, the road to Pokemon movies and the historical Pokemon movies have changed dramatically.

The Pokemon movie in history,In fact, it's just a simple 2D animated movie.,At most, the picture quality is higher than the tv version.,And then it's launched at a rate of one per year.,As of 2020.,There are already 23 theatrical animations.。

But such a theatrical version of the animation does not have much significance for Pokemon, nor does it have much promotion value, and the box office is to maintain a break-even level.

To put it simply, this is just a theatrical version of the movie to satisfy the feelings of fans, and it can't set off any real waves in the film market, which Boss Jia doesn't want to see.

Such a theatrical version really doesn't make much sense.

This time, since 20th Century Fox took the initiative to buy the movie rights of Pokemon, Boss Jia simply decided to play a big game.

The negotiations between the two sides around the Titanic lasted a total of one day.

But the negotiations around the movie version of Pokemon lasted for three days.

What Fox means is to buy the copyright of the Pokemon movie version, and then Fox will make a movie, and Boss Jia will earn a little copyright fee, and it's so simple.

But Boss Jia quit, Pokemon is still a newborn child, every IP has to go through meticulous maintenance, and Fox is just a movie, if Boss Jia doesn't have the right to watch this movie, God knows what these guys will be tossed into.

Therefore, Boss Jia also asked the Pokemon movie version to be filmed in a joint venture according to the model of the Titanic, of which Boss Jia accounted for 60% and 20th Century Fox accounted for 40% control.

20th Century Fox showed strong opposition to this, they were the same as Boss Jia, and they did not agree to transfer the control of the film to others, and after all the negotiations between the two sides, Boss Jia finally lost, after all, 20th Century Fox is professional, Boss Jia is not.

The two parties agreed that Boss Jia would invest $20 million, 20th Century Fox would invest $15 million, and then Fox would occupy 51% of the film shares, and Boss Jia would occupy 49% of the shares.

However, Boss Jia has control over the script, this is the bottom line that Boss Jia adheres to, in the case that other rights are not under control, the control of the script must be in Boss Jia's hands, otherwise this movie will become the next detective Pikachu.

And the most critical point is the production of the film.

Originally, the meaning of 20th Century Fox was to make an ordinary 2D animated movie, and then it was vetoed by Boss Jia, who meant to hand over the film to Pixar Studios, and Pixar Studios would make it into a 3D animated film.

20th Century Fox was skeptical about this, but Boss Jia strongly demanded, and 20th Century Fox agreed. But when they handed over the business to Pixar, Pixar turned it down.

Because Pixar Studios was working on "Toy Story," the first animated feature film in Pixar's history, and they also had two animated feature film contracts with Disney, they turned down 20th Century Fox's request.

was actually rejected by Pixar, which was something Boss Jia didn't expect, and 20th Century Fox took the opportunity to propose that it would be better to do 2D animation, and the cost could be saved by half.

But how could Boss Jia admit defeat like this, it is the general trend for animated films to be produced in 3D in the future, and he can't lose at the starting line.

So after a night of hard thinking and meditation, Boss Jia made an astonishing decision, that is, to open a branch in Daqian Puzzle and Daqian Entertainment, and Dynasty Animation will also establish a Dynasty Studio in the United States, which is responsible for the design and production of 3D animated films, and then hand over the Pokemon movies to Dynasty Studios to be responsible for production.

20th Century Fox was completely shocked by Boss Jia's idea, so scared that they almost wanted to give up the Pokemon movie directly, a Chinese animation studio, just draw a 2D animated movie, and now they actually want to make a 3D animated movie directly, how is this possible?

However, how could Boss Jia give up on Fox like this, after difficult negotiations, Boss Jia and Fox finally reached an agreement.

The Pokemon animated movie was handed over to the United States Dynasty Animation Studio to be responsible, but Boss Jia promised that after the Pokemon animation was released, the profits would be given priority to 20th Century Fox, and only when Fox's $15 million investment was fully recovered, the remaining profits could be returned to the Dynasty.

To put it simply, if the future Pokemon movie version makes a profit of 20 million US dollars, then 15 million will be given priority to Fox, so that Fox can recover the capital, and the remaining 5 million will be Boss Jia's, and Boss Jia will lose 15 million.

This is an unequal treaty, and as a price for accepting it, 20th Century Fox must be tasked with helping the dynasty recruit relevant 3D animation talent in the United States.

The so-called recruitment is to poach people directly from Pixar Animation Studio, after all, there is only one professional 3D animation studio in the United States, and Pixar is the only one.

At this time, Pixar's work treatment is still quite bad, because Pixar has not made a profit so far, and all the members of the studio are basically in a state of generating electricity with love, and the monthly salary is only about 2,000 US dollars, which is about the same as an ordinary worker.

Boss Jia directly offered three times the price, poached people from Pixar Studio with a salary of $6,000 a month, and also used an annual salary of $300,000 to poach the technical director of Pixar Studio.

At the same time, Dynasty also directly transferred 100 backbone young talents from China to the United States to join the United States Dynasty Studio, while giving those professional talents a hand, while learning advanced 3D animation production skills, so as to begin to cultivate Dynasty's own special effects team.

After all, a flock of birds is in the forest, it is better to have a bird in hand.

On the other hand, Pixar's digging made Boss Qiao angrily scold the dynasty and almost go to court, but there was nothing to sue, and it was finally over.

This also directly led to the fact that Pixar's Toy Story, which had just started, directly entered a state of paralysis, and it took more than half a year for Pixar Studios to return to normal, and Toy Story, which was originally scheduled to be released in 1995, was also postponed to 1996.

However, this also caused Boss Qiao to deeply hate our Boss Jia, one of them is the son of destiny, and the other is the son of traversal, and the two of them will have to fight in the future.
