500 South Buenavitta Avenue, Burbank, California, which is the headquarters of Walt Disney. Walk north from the overpass connecting Disney and ABC TV Entertainment Department, passes two intersections, and then turn into a quiet street, Jenkins Pictures. On the left side of the Jenkins Pictures building are three square buildings connected together through an air corridor. This is the latest public building purchased by Pixar Studios.

It was completely different from his previous life. After purchasing these three buildings, Pixar moved from the San Francisco area to the Greater Los Angeles area. Although there would be quite a lot of problems, as early as the beginning of the year, Ryan asked his team to assist Pixar's administrative department to find ways to solve the worries of employees.

In fact, 99% of the problem, to put it bluntly, is a problem of money. Now Pixar's family is big and has set up a budget to solve the problems that employees may encounter after the relocation.

Think about the move in 1990, Pixar faced bankruptcy with only dozens of employees. Now Pixar has a market value of billions and hundreds of employees. It is also the first-class animation studio in Hollywood.

The iconic desk lamp was erected in front of the company's main entrance early. Just before Thanksgiving, with the help of the big selling momentum of "Monster Electric Power Company", the company moved into Burbank City as a whole.

Of course, parties are bound to be indispensable after the housewarming. After the Thanksgiving holiday, Pixar held up a celebration party in the company's newly designed employee entertainment hall.

"I reached the box office championship in the first week, and North America alone earned $69.79 million, and the box office fell less than 30% in the second week, winning nearly $52 million, and once again reached the box office championship!"

The person who is talking to Ryan is Shirley Lansing, Paramount Pictures is the publisher of Pixar Studios. The higher the box office of the movie, the more profit they can make, "Ryan. It seems that the top two of the total box office list this year have been booked by you."

"Thank you." Ryan raised his cup to her, "We're a win-win!"

Then he asked, "I heard Leon say that the release date of Mission Impossible 2 will be postponed?"

"Hmm~" Shirley Lansing nodded and explained, "It's just that after the New Year, we don't want to face your Gladiator directly."

"This movie may not be released on time." Ryan's words sounded helpless, but his expression was still relaxed. Shirley Lansing knew very well that Ryan was no longer the boy he had just worked with Paramount. "It's better to bet $100. I guess "Gladiator" will definitely be released on time."

After making a few jokes, Ryan responded to the person who said hello. While walking to the Pixar animation character display area, two girls with short and long hair were talking about their heads and minds facing the monsters in the power company.

"Alison, aren't you the dubbing of the movie? Why didn't I hear you?"

"Dear Christine, the character I play is a two-year-old girl." Taylor rolled his eyes at her, "Of course there are very few lines."

"So you made those squeaking and weird screams." Kristen Stewart suddenly realized.

Perhaps I heard footsteps. Taylor turned his head and saw Ryan, wrinkled his nose and said, "I have won a big shot in three consecutive cartoons. Do you have to give me some rewards?"

"Then what do you want, my dear."

Seeing the little girl's arms spread, Ryan had to hug her gently, and rub the head of the tomboy next to him, "Alison. When did he come back from London? Why didn't I notify?"

"Hmph~" the little girl wrinkled her nose in dissatisfaction, "I don't want to delay your time picking up girls, see a playboy who loves each other!"

As she said that, she looked at Charlize Theron, who was socializing in the crowd with dissatisfaction.

Perhaps when he grew up, or perhaps because of his nearly a year of study in London, Ryan felt that Taylor seemed to be a little mature.

However, it is difficult to explain the emotional matters. Moreover, the opposite side is just a girl who is almost eleven years old.

If you only look at your height, Taylor is already four feet and six inches. She came over and lowered her voice and said, "Where is Nicole? Don't tell me you made her sad again, otherwise I will give you a good look!"

A small fist shook in front of Ryan's eyes.

"She will come back, but not now." Thinking of the little girl's big mouth, Ryan swallowed back the words he almost vomited, "Alison, you should consider your studies more."

"Hi, Taylor." Charlize's voice came from Ryan's side.

"Hello, Miss Theron." Miss Taylor Swift immediately became the standard lady, "I'm glad to know you!"

Perhaps he noticed Ryan's eyes moving over, the little girl immediately changed her expression, "Okay, Charlie, I won't disturb you and Ryan anymore, I'll go find Christine."

"Taylor is cute," said Charlize, looking at the girl leaving.

"Don't be fooled by her appearance." Ryan pulled Charlize and walked towards the seat where Pixar's top leaders gathered. "My cute sister is a lawless little devil in private."

There are many people around Pixar's executives. The successive success of animated feature film projects has made these idealists famous in the industry. Their struggle and persistence are like the American dream, and have been praised and sought after by many media.

Including Ed Camel, John Lassett, Andrew Stanton, Peter Dougt and others, they not only gained fame, but also received large amounts of money such as salary, equity dividends and related movie sharing.

Perhaps it is a bit exaggerated for billionaires, but the millionaires are perfect.

Since the first week of box office of "Monster Electric Power" was released, Pixar's stock price completely ignored the decline in the Nasdaq Index, ushering in the fastest rise this year. The single stock price not only quickly rose back to its price in March, but also exceeded $6 billion for the first time.

Although there are factors that raise funds from Wall Street, the role of successful films in driving the producers' stock prices is self-evident.

What kind of benefits can animated movies bring?

For Hollywood, this is no secret at all. Pixar naturally became the object and target of many companies' envy, and interests determine their respective positions. Ryan knew this well, which was also one of the reasons why he introduced Wall Street capital to Pixar Studios.

After the people around gradually dispersed, Shirley Lansing suddenly came over and asked, "I heard that the next animated feature film is "Toy Story 3"?"

"Yes, we have the script ready..."

Andrew Stanton, who has been in charge of screenwriter work, suddenly felt a little embarrassed, "We still need to get Ryan's adaptation authorization."

Several people present watched it, and Ryan suddenly shook his head and said, "I don't think it's a good idea to continue the Toy Story series now."

"Why?" asked the youngest Peter Dougt.

"I have chosen the next work for you. In fact, the script was completed a few years ago." Ryan didn't seem to notice the frowns of Pixar's senior executives and said to himself, "The Search for Nemo in my story collection..."

"Ryan, do you know how difficult it is to reproduce the underwater world with existing animation technology?" John Lasette retorted obscurely.

"I believe you can solve it." Ryan waved his hand and interrupted Peter Dougt, who wanted to continue saying something. "It's just like that for the time being. Now it's in public, we can solve these small problems in private."

Their argument has attracted a lot of attention. Ryan shook his head, pulled Charlize up and frowned and walked towards the door, seemingly unhappy.

"This is what is called not interfering with the normal operation of Pixar Studios!"

The young and energetic Peter Dougt muttered, and the people around him who vaguely heard the controversy became even more curious. It seems that Pixar Studio is not much different from other companies. There are also many conflicts between the management and the major shareholders, but past successes have all covered up these.

"Ryan is only twenty years old, and some ideas are normal." Ed Kaml whispered a few words, "Let's leave the problem to the board of directors to solve it."

It is impossible for each company's senior management to unite, and everything at this party seems to be normal.

Indeed, it is far from the scene where Roy Disney and Michael Eisner slammed the table and quarreled a lot in the Disney shareholders' meeting in previous years.

However, the party was full of talk and these things inevitably spread.

A few days later, an insider of Pixar broke the news to the media that Ryan and Pixar's management had serious differences on the choice of the next animation, and neither side could convince anyone. Although there was no quarrel, the scene was so cold.

Although he finally passed the project "Looking for Nemo", anyone can see the unhappiness on several Pixar executives' faces.

What is the fastest circulating in Hollywood? It must be gossip news.

When Ryan went to Jenkins Pictures, he was asked this question by a reporter. There was nothing to hide. He said bluntly, "Yes, we have different opinions, but the dispute is limited to the work level, which is normal, right? This will not cause trouble for Pixar, nor will it affect our personal relationship."

"But you introduced Wall Street capital to Pixar and diluted the shares in the hands of many executives, which has caused them to feel serious dissatisfaction."

"I am the one who diluted the most shares!" Ryan directly gave the reporter the expression of being a fool, and said without hesitation, "I understand what you are thinking, but unfortunately Pixar is still a united whole and will not be as divided as you think!"

"What about the plagiarism incident in "Gladiator"?" The reporter obviously did not give up. "You have never responded, are you guilty?"

"You'll see the results soon!"
