Chapter 341

In the office.

After Tracy left, casenberg recruited the main creative team of Shrek 2 and held a meeting to study the schedule. Tracy's opinion is that it will be released in the summer, which makes cassenberg very excited, but he still needs to ask everyone's opinion before he can make a decision.

The meeting lasted more than half an hour. Everyone put forward their own opinions and had different ideas.

Some people want to release before the summer festival. The time may be a little tight, but they face few challenges and have the guarantee of box office.

Some people agree that it should be released in the summer because Shrek 2 is a family movie. It is most suitable during the summer vacation. There must be more audiences at this time than at other times.

Some people think that Shrek 2 should be given enough publicity time, and it is suggested to be released in the Christmas schedule at the end of the year.

Not many people support this idea. First, it's too long from now to Christmas. Everyone doesn't want to wait so long. The second is the issue of publicity expenses. From now to Christmas, we should maintain a certain exposure. How much does it cost? The company can't afford such a large expenditure.

At the end of the meeting, kasenberg was more determined to release it in the summer. He looked around, glancing over the faces of Andrew Adamson and two other directors, Kelly asper and Conrad Vernon, and then looked at the other producers and nodded to them.

According to everyone's opinions and my ideas, I think it's best for us to put Shrek in the summer.

Now it's almost April. We still have three months before the end of June. Although the time is a little tight, it's enough for us to prepare. First, do a market survey, and then contact major media and television stations to publicize for us. Of course, the power of online media can't be ignored. Tracy, our major shareholder, has many resources on the Internet. You can contact him Do the publicity of this part of the Internet.

Everyone should be very clear about the importance of Shrek 2 to the company. This is the first project of DreamWorks Animation Studio after its independence. Whether it can succeed is enough to prove whether my choice is correct. Many people outside the world are not optimistic about me leaving DreamWorks, and even some people are waiting for my jokes. "

Speaking of this, kasenberg put away the faint smile on his face, became serious and continued: "So, I don't allow it to fail, absolutely not. I want my peers in the industry to see the value of DreamWorks Animation Studio. I want them to know that my choice is right. I want them to know that Hollywood has not only Disney animation, but also Pixar Animation and DreamWorks Animation.

In terms of publicity, we will invest $10 million in the early stage, and then increase it to $20 million. I want to let all the United States know that our film is going to be released. The schedule is scheduled for June 15. Starting from the summer program, we will start the first shot of the summer program. "

After casenberg finished, everyone fell into meditation. After a moment, Andrew Adamson echoed: "I agree with Jeffrey. It's time for us to make a voice and let the whole Hollywood know that we're coming."

Andrew is very confident. After all, he is the chief director of the film and has great confidence in the quality of the film. It is the wish of every director to compete with big projects of major companies in the summer. He will certainly not shrink back at this moment.

At the beginning of the meeting, we agreed with Mr. cassenberg's proposal. Then we discussed the specific issue and made a simple plan. The meeting ended more than an hour later and we reached a consensus.

After everyone left, Carson Berger breathed a sigh of relief, lit a cigar and took two breaths. When his mood completely calmed down, he thought about it and called Tracy.

The phone rang for more than ten seconds, connected, and Tracy's voice sounded across the room.

"Well, Jeffrey, have you made a decision?"

"Of course, everyone has accepted your proposal. We intend to set the schedule for June 15."

"Hahaha... That's good. We have the strength to take a share in the summer."

"Hehe, I hope our decision is right." after the release was decided, casenberg felt a lot easier. However, when he thought that Tracy, such a key figure, didn't attend the key meeting, he inevitably complained, "you should stay. You are the hand of God and are more persuasive than me."

"Don't say that, Jeffrey. You have more experience. You are their backbone and have more say than me."

"Hehe, you know, I'm not proficient in publicity and distribution. David used to do these things."

"I know what you think. You just want to make movies quietly. Now it's time to recruit some professional publicity talents for the company, and all our departments should be expanded. You still have so many projects to do, and I think your manpower should be insufficient. By the way, don't count on me, I can give advice, but I won't come to work. You know I'm busy, I'm afraid Many companies have to take into account. "

"Yes, you are a busy man. Even if you don't tell me, I can see you in the newspaper."

"Uh..."

Casenberg's tone was a little joking. Tracy immediately understood that the old guy was joking about his affair. At present, he was helpless. How can you understand my hard work.

"Well, don't say more. You can't refuse publicity."

"Of course, this is also my project, and I will pay attention to it. You let your hands contact new potatoes, Google and Facebook, and I will say hello to them."

"Wow, your resources are so rich..."

Tracy did not say anything, chatted again and hung up the phone.

The resources on the Internet are really not mature. Facebook and new potatoes, which he controls, are developing. It is estimated that it will take some time to take off.

As for Google, which holds 20% of the shares, it is constantly eroding Yahoo's business at a critical moment, and the competition between the two sides has become white hot.

Google's top management is ready to start the listing plan. At this time, listing and financing is also to seek further growth and continue to suppress Yahoo.

These are not what Tracy can care about. After all, he has little say. However, he is not very cold about the listing and is making will seek the possibility of further financing.

Google is not listed, he still has a chance to win more shares. After Google went public and its market value rose sharply, although his shares appreciated, it was difficult to win more shares.
