Tick, tick... this is the sound of the second hand running; puff, puff... this is the sound of the heart beating.

When you are nervous, the sound of the second hand advancing by one frame and the beating of the heart will be infinitely amplified, so that people can clearly feel the vibration of the eardrum, and even the sound of blood rushing. All are transmitted through the pulse of the skin.

That's how the Bell brothers felt when Steve Jobs was silent.

Evan Bell has been thinking about Pixar since Steve Jobs and Michael Inas began to crack. It has been two years since Pixar and Disney officially broke up. For the past year and a half, Evan Bell has been planning how to reach a cooperation agreement with Pixar and how to pull Pixar into the camp of Eleven Studios. Although it is said that even if this cooperation ends in failure, it will not have any effect on Eleven Studio. After all, they are now galloping on a virtuous circle of development, but Evan Bell still hopes to succeed, sincerely.

In August last year, Evan Bell and Steve Jobs talked about cooperation for the first time, and after hitting a wall twice; in the third conversation, Eleven Studio finally came up with enough chips to attract Steve Jobs noticed. Although it is only two months before and after the real negotiation, Studio Eleven has worked hard for a year and a half, which can definitely be said to be difficult.

Especially the ants of Eleven Studios. In the case of insufficient conditions, try to defeat the giant Disney and drag the elephant home from Pixar. This small and broad process is like completing an almost impossible task, which makes people nervous all the time.

so. When Steve Jobs was brooding, Evan Bell or Teddy Bell almost held his breath, making or breaking it. If it can't be successful today, and after the release of "Four-eyed Tianji", Disney begins to make up its mind, then the fire of hope for Eleven Studios will become more and more elusive. It gets thinner and thinner until it is finally extinguished. This may be Eleven Studio's best and last chance.

"Deal." After the word came out of Steve Jobs' mouth, the world seemed to light up in an instant. Evan Bell stood up almost like a conditioned reflex, and Teddy Bell by his side also stood up tacitly, and the two brothers hugged tightly. Evan Bell even cheered twice. This heartfelt excitement and joy made Steve Jobs smile. Only at this moment did the Bell brothers look like real young people, in their early twenties.

"Happy cooperation, oh. God, Steve, I'm so happy, I hope our future cooperation can continue to be happy." Evan Bell stretched out his right hand with a smile on his face, that spontaneous joy The brows moved, making Steve Jobs happy to watch.

Steve Jobs took Evan Bell's hand, smiled and said, "This is a must, or I'll make a loss-making trade?"

In fact, this is just the beginning. After Steve Jobs agreed, the other Pixar shareholders had to agree first before the deal could start. In the transaction process, money is the easiest thing, but the future cooperation plan between Eleven Studio and Apple is a very complicated matter, which is the top priority of this transaction. After all, Eleven Studios was able to impress Steve Jobs, relying on this cooperation plan.

But no matter what, today has made a qualitative leap. Eleven Studios grabbed the food before Robert Eagle and before the release of "Four-Eyed Chicken", and snatched the big cake from Pixar. This is definitely a fantastic acquisition, much more exciting than the drag-and-drop DreamWorks acquisition.

The next day, Steve Jobs and Pixar shareholders met and passed the acquisition agreement. John Lasseter, Andrew Stanton, Brad Bird, and others were all holding on to the acquisition. Hands welcome gesture. When the shareholders meeting was over, Steve Jobs didn't even have time to notify Teddy Bell, Andrew Stanton told Evan Bell the good news first, and Brad Bird and John Lasseter later Can't wait to get on the phone with Evan Bell.

On November 4th, that is, the day of the release of "Four-Eyed Chicken", although the details of the cooperation plan still need to be discussed, Eleven Studio officially announced that they officially announced that they will use $4.5 billion plus cooperation. Acquired Pixar Studios. The content of this announcement was decided by Teddy Bell and Steve Jobs after consultation. They can increase the number of transaction amount to attract everyone's attention. The main reason is to hope that the media will not pay too much attention to the "cooperation method". The key word, after all, the creation of this online world needs to take the lead, or let those companies with a keen sense of smell not notice the further cooperation between Eleven Studio and Apple in advance.

"Boom", everyone knows that Hollywood is going to change.

Eleven Studio's acquisition of Pixar, what does this mean? It means that Eleven Studio, which made its fortune in production, has become a super-first-class production company, and in terms of overall strength, it has officially surpassed Lionsgate Pictures, becoming the The boss of a second-tier film company. It has only been three months since the establishment of November Publishing in June, and the development speed of Eleven Studio is really amazing. Check out this deal, $4.5 billion! This studio, which has not been established for five years, can actually come up with a huge sum of money, even if it is all worth it, it is an astonishing figure. What's more, it seems that Studio Eleven still has spare capacity. Appearance, 4.5 billion is not their bottom line at all, this is the most amazing.

Take a look at the just-launched fall episodes of "Prison Break", "NCIS", "Grey's Anatomy", and "Doctor House" all among the top ten drama ratings, which makes Eleven Studio a At present, the most famous TV drama production company in the United States; let's take a look at the schedule of the future film market "Little Sunshine" and "Brokeback Mountain" will be released soon, "Perfume" is in post-production, "High School Musical" and "The Queen Wears Prada" are being filmed, ten Although the first studio is still far from the top big companies in terms of film production, it already has an advantage in the second-tier production companies. Although the number is small, it wins by quality. Now add another Pixar, which wins by quality, ten The strength of a studio is definitely more than one level.

The rise of Eleven Studios is actually nothing. After all, it is still far from a real big film company. Distribution, production, post-production, and peripherals are a comprehensive gap, and it is not so easy to catch up. What really made everyone realize that Hollywood was going to change was the defeated Disney.

After undergoing personnel changes, Disney is currently in a historical low point, and the newly appointed CEO Robert Iger hopes to rely on the acquisition of Pixar to alleviate Disney's current dilemma in the quality of animation, and Disney made its fortune in animation. Yes, as long as the dilemma of cartoons is resolved, the entire economic chain can relieve the pressure. But now, Disney’s plan to acquire Pixar has failed—for whatever reason, but the end result is that Eleven Studios succeeded in taking away the Pixar that Disney planned. Then Disney will be faced with a terrible mess.

Imagine that after the loss of Pixar, Disney officially announced that there was no alternative in the animation department. They could only rely on their own animation department to continue to explore computer 3D animation. For Disney, whether it is eaten by Eleven Studios, has a dull face, or is second, the point is that they must make an adjustment to their future development strategy. There is no longer Pixar as an alternative, which means that Robert Iger's previous calculations have failed, and he must re-plan the development of Disney's animation division.

Robert Iger is going crazy. Pixar is the most important piece of the puzzle in his plan. He was actually thinking about Pixar before he took office. However, the board of directors has been reluctant to let go, and coupled with his lack of decisiveness in his personality, he has missed the best opportunity again and again. Robert Iger has always believed that the acquisition of Pixar must be a very long process, after all, this is a multi-billion dollar transaction, so although Steve Jobs has been pressing hard, but Robert - Iger still partially agrees with the board's statement, and he also hopes to see the results of the "four-eyed chicken" before making a decision.

But what about now? Everything has become a mirror, and this is a terrible situation for Disney's mess. Robert Iger can't be more clear After taking office, he was completely panicked for the first time. . Robert Iger tried to turn the tide against Steve Jobs, promising to give Pixar an immediate affirmative answer. But even so, at this critical juncture, Robert Iger couldn't be ruthless about Steve Jobs' "seven billion" proposal, only promising to convince the board immediately.

Unfortunately, Robert Eagle's character was doomed to the failure of the acquisition, as he still failed to convince the board members decisively. The board of directors was not as chaotic as imagined, and the members were not completely pessimistic, because "Four-Eyed Chicken" was released on the fourth day. As long as the film was successful, it would not be a problem at all whether Pixar's acquisition was successful or not. Disney can rely on its rich heritage to re-emerge.

Facing the optimism of the board members, Robert Eagle's panic and confusion were of no avail. He could only calm down and pray that the "Four-Eyed Chicken" released on the fourth day would be a success. !
