Reborn in America, I'm serious about making money.

Since Leather Silk was acquired, there have been no new works. However, there has been no pressure from the parent company. On the contrary, they have been given money and manpower as needed. John, the person in charge of Leather Silk, is very grateful. Although he has not been under pressure, he himself feels the pressure.

In 1992, the computer-aided manufacturing system developed by the leather and silk research team won the Academy Award for Scientific and Engineering.

The following year, after filming nine GG (Ghostly) games, Pixar created the corporate logo for the Blue Giant. The RenderMan programming team won an Academy Award for Scientific and Engineering Achievement.

In the third year, they created a corporate logo for one of the Big Seven film companies.

Indeed, although Leathers is a computer animation production company, its hardware and software are arguably number one in the world. Currently, the company has not found many ways to monetize its products.

Computer animation, despite its acclaim, has yet to be put into practice, so many people are still observing. Since the world-shaking phenomenon "Kimba the White Lion," Tessni feels that hand-drawn animation is still the dominant force in the world. Although they haven't made money from it, it has solidified their resolve.

Later, Universal released a hand-drawn animated feature film, which further strengthened their confidence, while they ignored the leather thread.

What angered Tishini even more was that MCA seemed to be challenging them. They launched a princess series, and MCA launched a princess series too, many of which were even better than theirs, which infuriated them.

However, everyone here works in Hollywood, so they naturally know which roles are usable and which are not. If you want to get these princesses, you have to buy MCA's role or surpass hers.

Obviously, it's impossible at the moment. Since Michael took the lead, Tessney has made great strides, but it has also left behind some problems.

Tissney is currently in a somewhat unstable situation, with the founding family and professional managers locked in a power struggle, and the conflict is escalating.

"They made an animated film this year, 'Toys,' which is a really good animated film. Do you want to go see it together?"

Seeing that Allen and the others were bored, Zhang San made a suggestion.

"Really? Even better than adult films?"

"Get lost~" Zhang San looked at Xiao Fen and said gently, "I'll have them send it over to see, it's inconvenient for you to be like this."

Unlike other film companies, the entire MCA Group belongs to Zhang San alone. Therefore, some things are very easy to handle. John naturally agreed to his boss's unreasonable request. The boss had promised to have someone send the complete copy back.

Looking at the six Chinese men in black, although something seemed a bit off, I still...

"I'll go with you; I'm worried about leaving you there."

The leader said in broken English, "Of course, John, your diligence will be appreciated by the boss."

Captain Luo has been diligently studying English, and as a result, his English level has improved quite a bit. Since he beat up those four bodyguards, he has earned their respect, and it has become easier for both sides to communicate in English.

It seems that only those who are strong themselves can succeed.

"John, welcome. I have high hopes for you because of your dedication."

Zhang San also received the news and came out to greet him personally. John also saw Luo Xiaofen, who was heavily pregnant, and felt that he was being valued.

"Boss, it's been a long time since I've seen you, so I'd love to hear your thoughts on this animated film."

Zhang San laughed, and the group went into the screening room together. John felt that he must become a rich man. The screening room was very big, which made him very envious.

"John, if this movie is a success, you can have a villa like this too." Zhang San meant that if the movie was a success, the bonus would be substantial; clearly, people who reach high positions are not fools.

The movie started playing. Zhang San had never seen this movie before, and he watched it with great interest. The six people next to him also enjoyed it very much.

"John, I have a feeling you will succeed."

"Thank you, thank you, boss."

Zhang San didn't have any objections; he felt it was pretty good and very suitable for the whole family to watch together. The promotional slogan was, "The world's first computer-animated feature film," which was a great slogan.

"John, this movie is great in every way, but the production is a bit slow. Is it because we're short-staffed or something?" Zhang San asked.

John thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps we lack professional personnel."

"Then I'll grant your request. We should hire more people who are passionate about computer art."

Zhang San plans to recruit more fellow villagers and some white people to join a certain organization, which would increase the production of animated films.

John nodded in agreement, believing that hiring more people would indeed help speed up the completion of the animated film.

When is this animated film scheduled for release?

John thought for a moment and said, "I've already discussed it with Robert, around November."

"Oh, in that case, we need to start preparing related products too, otherwise it might be too late," Zhang San thought, arms crossed and brows furrowed.

Indeed, animated films are the easiest to sell merchandise, especially the movie "Toy Story".

"Boss, you've really thought of everything."

Because of Zhang San's extensive network, some of the companies he has invested in in the Yangtze River Delta region now have new products to produce.

"...Now we need to produce a new product? Okay, send over the molds, I'll arrange production..."

Thanks to the fact that most of the movies produced by MCA are primarily for selling merchandise, these OEM manufacturers are now extremely busy.

Especially now, with the movie "Toy Story," there are a lot of related merchandise. If we calculate that merchandise sales are two to three times the box office revenue, then there are billions of dollars in merchandise sales.

With more than half a year until its release, it's natural to prepare early.

In addition to the factory in Hangzhou receiving a schedule for new production capacity, factories in other locations have also begun to make arrangements, with production capacity starting to make way for new products.

In a toy workshop in Kunshan, workers were quickly sewing cloth dolls and plush toys. One of them said, "This batch will be finished by tomorrow. Some of you will stop to produce new products. You need to adjust your work schedules recently, as you may have to work overtime. Others will be working in the second workshop, also on three shifts..."

The workers were very happy. Overtime was a good thing for them. They came from the mountains of Southwest China to earn more money. It didn't matter if they suffered or worked hard.

Working overtime means making money faster and earning more. They've heard that some companies don't pay overtime at all.
