At the end of 24 years.
"Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" was released.
Then, "Beauty and the Beast", "Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck", "The Lion King", "Dumbo", "Finding Nemo", "Cinderella", "The Little Mermaid", "The Jungle Book", one after another wonderful cartoons were released along with animation.
It was September 25 years.
Disney headquarters, high-level meeting.
President Walter looked at the shareholders and company executives present, and then looked at the annual report displayed in the notebook, and for a moment he doubted his life.
In his memory, in the past few decades, Disney has always been the leader of global animation, from creation to promotion, to peripherals, to amusement parks, various IP-related characters, making Disney earn a lot of money.
But now, he fiddled with the laptop a few times and read it carefully.
It seems that the entire company has only a few cartoons, and there are no outstanding IPs at all, all of which are not famous IP characters.
'So, what have we done in the past few decades?
Why are some people willing to spend money on us?
Why can we make so much money?
What is in our Disney amusement parks all over the world?
Why are so many idiots willing to spend a lot of money to bring their children to play? ’
Walter himself suspected that all the idiots in the world had come to his amusement park.
After thinking so much.
Take another look at the financial report on the laptop.
In the first half of this year, the company finally started to lose money.
Does this mean that the idiots in the past have become smarter?
Well, it seems so.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to suddenly lose money.
But it’s not right to think so.
If a person without a brain wants to make up his brain, it is completely impossible.
Even if someone can make up his brain, it is definitely a very small number.
The sudden loss is very abnormal.
Yes, it’s very abnormal!
Walter was very sure in his heart.
He couldn’t help but quickly fiddle with the data interface on the notebook a few times and found the financial report of the Daxia region.
At least 1/3 of Disney's annual profit comes from Daxia.
That is a country where everyone is rich, and they like to compare, show off their children, and take photos.
In memory...
What?
Walter was thinking, but the picture in front of him gave him a hard blow.
Red!
All red!
Red is not growth, but loss.
The whole Daxia, all Disney-owned, all lost money in the first half of this year.
This is impossible!
Absolutely impossible!
Walter firmly did not believe it.
He rubbed his eyes and was stunned.
Surprisingly, it was really a comprehensive loss!
What happened to Daxia?
Economic shrinkage?
People's income is too low?
Or is it that all Disney in Daxia is blocked?
But, it seems that there is no feedback.
Blocking without feedback?
Could it be that all the managers in Daxia have rebelled?
Or...
While Walter was thinking this, a shareholder knocked on the table impatiently, "Walter, you have to give us an explanation.
Our Disney has always been doing well. In the past, the profits and dividends were very generous every year. What happened this year?
Why is the income of Daxia, our main source of income, negative, and other regions have begun to decline.
Tell me, why did it suddenly become like this?
Just because a Zhushi Animation appeared, just because they released a few cartoons, we have no place to stay?
We are a company with hundreds of years of history and the leader of the world animation!"
"Tell me now, how did you do it as the president?"
What do you mean by how I did it.
For all these years, I have always adhered to the principles of the past.
Various acquisitions, collections (plundering), innovative IP...
Wait, Zhushi Animation?
A very fresh name made Walter search on the spot.
Soon, the information of Zhushi Animation was searched. Although the introduction was not very detailed, the names of various animations and cartoons marked on it formed a sharp contrast with the corresponding company's founding time.
It was less than a year since its establishment, but it has already created and promoted so many works.
Is it shoddy, or...
He clicked on a cartoon again and watched it on the spot.
Not long after, he was numb.
He carefully recalled the current cartoons and IPs in the company. It seemed that he did not lose unfairly.
I can only say that for so many years, I and my own Disney have worked in vain!
For so many years, it is not as good as the creation of less than a year of other companies.
""Alas...!"
A long sigh, inexpressible sadness.
Walter simply compromised and said: "Next, I will discuss cooperation with this Takeishi Animation. If possible, I will buy part of their existing IP.
If it really doesn't work, then we can only cooperate!"
"This may be our only chance of survival in the future."
"I hope Takeishi Animation will not completely block our way back!"
...
Foot basin chicken, Imperial Palace.
The emperor looked at the fiscal report for the first half of this year in his hand, looked at the finance minister in front of him with a gloomy face, and scolded: "Baga!"
"Why is this year's fiscal revenue down 15% from last year?
It stands to reason that last year, the management rights of action movies were partially released, and employment opportunities were expanded, and fiscal revenue should have increased.
Tell me, why did it not increase but decrease in the first half of this year?"
After saying this, the emperor threw the fiscal report directly on the table and asked: "Tell me, did you embezzle again? Tell me! ”
“Your Majesty, you are wronging me!”
The kneeling finance minister bowed and explained: “Please take a closer look at this financial report. Because of the new policy you implemented, the tax revenue from the film and television sector has increased by nearly 25% this year, but the problem is…
The problem is that the tax revenue from comics, animation and related peripherals has dropped too much.
Before last year, our export tax revenue from animation copyrights, peripherals and figures to Southeast Asian countries, especially Daxia, was very huge.
But in the first half of this year, our animation industry had almost no export volume.
On the contrary, Daxia’s animation industry’s exports to our country have increased by more than 2000%!”
“Baga!”
Hearing this, the emperor immediately became angry.
He said angrily: “My Foot Basin Chicken Empire controls half of the world’s entertainment industry, and the export of love action movies accounts for 47.5% of the world, and the export of animation accounts for 68.3% of the world. How could it suddenly become like this?
Is it because our export tax is too high? Daxia is so poor that it can't even... "
"Emperor, that's not the case!"
The Finance Minister quickly explained, "It's not that our animation is not exported, but that the animation produced in our country is completely different from that produced in Daxia!"
Looking at the helpless face of the Finance Minister, the Emperor was stunned.
Is it possible that the animation of our Chicken Empire has declined to this extent?!
