Chapter 820: 1 more choice


The convoy entered the DreamWorks Industrial Park in Glendale and slowly stopped in front of an office building. Katzenberg and Spielberg got off the two cars respectively.
  
   Spielberg stood beside Katzenberg and said, "Jerifer, welcome home."
  
   Katzenberg said: "The animation studio has always been in DreamWorks."
  
   Frankly speaking, he didn't like Spielberg's tone just now, as if the host was welcoming a child who had run away from home.
  
   Spielberg calmly said: "When we founded DreamWorks, you, me, and David, the three of us stood here, looking at the entire industrial park, confident in the future."
  
   There is a faint meaning to this.
  
   Katzenberg could hear it, sighed, and said, "It's really not easy for DreamWorks to come to this day."
  
   Spielberg said: "Yes, after David's departure and the suppression of the six major companies, DreamWorks has not collapsed. I cherish this career even more."
  
The words that seemed to come from the heart, seemed to have moved Katzenberg. He said seriously: "Steven, the situation is different now. Hollywood has Ronan Anderson and Relativity Entertainment to help attract firepower. DreamWorks has a chance. Develop and grow."
  
   Spielberg nodded slowly: "But the premise is that there can be no problems inside DreamWorks."
  
   Katzenberg turned to look at Spielberg, and said: "The strongest castle always collapses from the inside."
  
   Spielberg suddenly stretched out his right hand: "Remember the original intention!"
  
   Katzenberg shook his hand heavily: "Remember the original intention!"
  
   At this moment, the two hands are tightly clasped together, and the two remaining giants in DreamWorks seem to start to cooperate sincerely.
  
   The new agreement with Embassy Pictures has just been reached. Katzenberg has a lot of work to deal with, and he quickly went to the animation studio.
  
   Spielberg entered the office building and returned to his office.
  
   In the office, only Spielberg and his trusted subordinates, the former asked: "DreamWorks is on the right track, to determine how many shareholders support me!"
  
  The cronie said, "I will go now."
  
   Spielberg stopped him: "Go by yourself, don't leak the wind."
  
   Many things must be planned ahead. Even if you don’t do it, you must also make certain preparations. Otherwise, it will be too late to wait until you are close before you think of a solution.
  
   Back to the DreamWorks Animation Studio, Katzenberg went to a few project teams to take a look, and roughly talked to the project leader about the situation with the Embassy Film Industry in order to calm people down.
  
  On the way back to the office, Jeff Katzenberg answered the phone, and after a few conversations, he said, "Well, let's meet at 11th Street in Santa Monica at three in the afternoon."
  
I hung up the phone, went to the office for lunch first, and went back to the office to deal with the work for a while. Seeing that the time was almost the same, Katzenberg didn’t take anyone with him. He drove to Santa Monica in person and saw it at the appointed place Old acquaintance Mike Dandry.
  
   The other party is also a producer from Disney Animation Studios, and now works in Universal Pictures.
  
   The two are old colleagues and have been in contact.
  
   Mike Dandri asked directly: "Jerifer, I heard that you have terminated the distribution contract with Embassy Pictures?"
  
  Kasenberg said: "The new agreement officially signed this year is not a cancellation. It was Ronan Anderson who decided to bring DreamWorks Animation Studios home."
  
   Mike Dandri couldn't help but laugh: "The distribution and promotion capabilities of Embassy Pictures can't be compared to DreamWorks, right?"
  
   Katzenberg said, "There is not much difference."
  
   "Jerifer, why don't you listen to my suggestion." Mike Dandry is very sincere: "How about the film of DreamWorks Animation Studios released by Universal Pictures?"
  
He hurriedly said, "Don't be too busy to refuse. Jereef, as the director of DreamWorks Animation Studio, you are responsible for the animation studio, not DreamWorks. Universal Pictures’ distribution capability is not a dream. The factory can compare."
  
   Kasenberg refused and stayed in his throat.
  
   Mike Dandri keeps on adding conditions: "Universal Pictures can even inject capital into DreamWorks Animation Studios to expand your scale."
  
   "Do you want DreamWorks Animation Studios to join Universal Pictures?" Katzenberg instantly took control of DreamWorks' true purpose.
  
   Mike Dandry did not deny: "The funding and platform that nbc Universal can provide is not worse than DreamWorks, right? Universal Pictures can guarantee that you will always be the person in charge and decision maker of our DreamWorks Animation Studio!"
  
   Katzenberg frowned slightly and fell silent.
  
Mike Dandri said: "Nowadays, computer animation is very popular, and the related market is completely opened. Many large companies have corresponding animation studios. Universal Pictures has ignored this aspect in the past and has not started. So Universal The film industry sincerely wants to cooperate with DreamWorks Animation Studio..."
  
   He lowered his voice and said a series of conditions for cooperation.
  
   Katzenberg listened to his ears and said that he was not tempted, but DreamWorks was a company established by him and Spielberg after all, and it is not that you can put it down.
  
   "Jerifer, please think about it." Mike Dandry said: "Universal Pictures has a hundred and twenty points of sincerity."
  
   Katzenberg did not agree, nor did he refuse: "This is related to the future of DreamWorks. I need time to think about it."
  
   Mike Dandri smiled and said, "Of course, this requires careful consideration."
  
   There is no direct rejection, which is good news for Universal Pictures.
  
   This meeting ended soon. Jeremy Katzenberg felt that he could not refuse Universal Pictures directly. The future of DreamWorks Animation Studios also needed an alternative path.
  
   It is impossible for him to completely tie himself and the future of the animation studio to Spielberg.
  
  Relativity Building, Ronan finished his work on DreamWorks and received an old acquaintance who came to visit.
  
   Zach Schneider came to his office.
  
   "How is the post-production of "Spartan Three Hundred Warriors"?" Ronan asked.
  
   Zach Schneider said quickly: "It's going well, but it won't be until the end of the year to complete all production."
  
   Ronan is not surprised. After all, this film has not taken any shots outdoors. The shooting was all done in front of the green screen in the studio. All backgrounds depend on the generation of cgi special effects. Post-production takes time.
  
   "Don't worry." Ronan nodded slightly: "The film will only be released next summer, and there is plenty of time for post-production."
  
   Zach Schneider smiled and said, "Yes, the post-production of this film is the key."
  
   Ronan said: "You have to pay more attention to this aspect, you have to stare at the crew."
  
   "I understand." Zach Schneider assured: "I will definitely submit to the company an edited version of the guaranteed completion."
  
   He glanced at Ronan and tentatively said: "Have you seen Charles Rowan recently?"
  
   Ronan recalled, and said: "I saw it some time ago. Director Christopher Nolan summoned people to discuss the preparations for the new "Batman" sequel film. Charles Rowan and I are both producers of the project.
  
   Zach Schneider said: "Recently, Charles Rowan talked to me several times."
  
   Ronan immediately thought of his secret matchmaking thing: "Before, I saw you chatting with Charles very speculatively."
  
   Zach Schneider smiled embarrassedly, and said: "We have the same views on many concepts in film production."
  
   Ronan answered, "I heard Charles talk about this."
  
Zach Schneider saw that Ronan had no other ideas, and tried again: "Two days ago, Charles Rowan, Warner Bros. and two executives from DC Comics came to the crew to find me and wanted to watch "Spartan In the post-production of "Three Hundred Warriors", I asked you and George for their opinions. After you agreed, I showed them a part of the finished shot..."
  
   Ronan nodded: "I remember this."
  
Since the opening of the Theory of Relativity Building, most of the crews under the Shahai Entertainment Group have transferred post-production to the post-production studio of the Theory of Relativity Building. However, a small number of crews are still performing post-production at Warner Studios, "Spartan Three Hundred Warriors." Is one of them.
  
   Ronan also deliberately left the crew of "Spartan Three Hundred Warriors" at Warner Studios.
  
   "After they watched that part of the shot." Zach Schneider's words continue: "I am very interested, think I have a very characteristic shot, and want to cooperate with me..."
  
   Speaking of this, Zach Schneider looked at Ronan and seemed a little worried.
  
Ronan smiled and said: "Zach, you have only signed two film contracts with Shahai Entertainment. You should have heard of Gilmour Del Toro and Paul Greengrass. Commercial matters, we have The contract serves as the basis."
  
   Zach Schneider, of course, has heard of those two colleagues who have finished cooperating with Relativity Entertainment~EbookFREE.me~ Otherwise, they will not come to them.
  
"Charles Rowan proposed to wait for me to finish "Spartan Three Hundred Warriors"." Zach Schneider seemed to be encouraged: "I will direct a dc comics adaptation film, he thinks I am in "Spartan The style of "Three Hundred Warriors" is very suitable for the comic adaptation."
  
Ronan said directly: "Zach, what movie project you choose next is your freedom. Neither I nor Relativity Entertainment have the right to interfere with you, but there is a prerequisite for all this. You need to complete "Spartan Three Hundred Warriors" first. ."
  
   Zach Schneider said seriously: "I promise. I said the same to Charles Rowan, so I didn't agree to it for the time being. Come here to say hello to you."
  
  Even if he doesn't cooperate, he doesn't want to become stalemate with Relativity Entertainment because of his cooperation with other companies.
  
   Ronan said: "Zach, as long as the contract is completed, you can choose the path that is most beneficial to your future. I never want to and will not interfere. You can rest assured about this."
  
   Zach Schneider really relaxes, after all, Ronan's reputation is well-known.
