Century City, Los Angeles, in an office in Fox Building.

Chris Mellerdandley looked at the subordinates opposite him and confirmed again: "Mary, Eric, Chris. You would rather leave Fox than go to Blue Sky Studio? Bain and the others are ready to join Blue Sky."

These three are two men and one woman. Chris Renard is the oldest, Mary Claire and Eric Veron are both young people who are not over thirty years old.

They are also a group of backbone forces after Chris Mellerdandley created Fox animation.

Chris Renard took the lead and said: "I know some people go to Blue Sky Studio to continue animation production, but I..." He shook his head helplessly: "Boss, you know my situation. My family is in Los Angeles, so it is impossible to go to New York to work at Blue Sky Studio."

Chris Melledandley could only nod. If he was middle-aged, many real situations were placed here, especially after having a family and a child, he no longer had the capital to act willful.

"Where are you two?" He looked at the two young men.

These three people are all backbone, each with a small team. It is impossible for the people in the team to stay, but as the leader of the team, Fox will pay more attention to it, providing the opportunity to join Blue Sky Studio.

Among the four teams of Fox Animation, Bain and his deputy have chosen to join Blue Sky.

Chris Mellerdandley couldn't do much, but he still had some opportunities to follow his backbone members.

Eric Bellon glanced at Mary Claire, saw the latter nodded slightly, and said, "I don't want to go to the blue sky either. Going to a new city means I want to give up everything in Los Angeles. What should I do if my people under my command? They have been following me for several years."

Chris Renard and Mary Claire looked at Chris Mellerdandley at the same time. Chris Mellerdandley said directly: "I have no choice, either. This is the decision made by the Murdoch family. Fox animation will be disbanded, and then a new Fox animation will be formed based on Blue Sky Studio."

Eric Bellon shook his head: "Boss, I won't go to the blue sky anymore. I can always find other opportunities in Los Angeles."

Chris Mellerdandley finally looked at Mary Claire: "Where are you?"

Mary Claire pushed up the thick black-framed glasses and said, "I don't want to go to a competitor's company as a loser."

Chris Mellerdandley sighed. These three people and the team they led were the backbone of Fox Animation, and they were going to be lost like this.

He could understand the choices of these three people, and also understood the decision of the Murdoch family to intervene.

After all, for commercial companies, departments and teams that cannot generate profits are worthless.

Not only did Fox animation not create value for Twentieth Century Fox, but last year's "Frozen Planet" also brought serious losses.

In contrast, Blue Sky Studio, "Ice Age" performed well, and some people have begun to compare Blue Sky Studio with Pixar Studio and DreamWorks Animation Studio.

Everyone has their own ambitions, and Chris Mellerdandley no longer persuaded him, opened the drawer and took out three cards, placed them at his desk, and said, "Leaving Fox Animation, you need to find a new job. You have been engaged in animation production for many years. You are a rare talent in this field. It is best to continue to develop in this field."

Eric Bellon smiled: "Boss, we will continue to stay in this industry."

In fact, they don’t blame Chris Melledandley. The boss is just the head of a certain department of Fox. He is simply unable to fight against the decision-making of senior executives and has also won new opportunities for them.

Chris Mellerdandley nodded slightly and continued: "This is the contact information of Ronan Anderson, the boss of Relativity Entertainment. His company is preparing to form an animation production department and needs talents in this area. And I have talked with Ronan Anderson several times. This is a very thoughtful and reliable young producer."

He looked at the three subordinates: "You know Ronan Anderson, right?"

"I know." Chris Renard continued: "The producer of "Spy Shadows" and "The God of Death is Coming", his relativity entertainment has developed rapidly in recent years, with a production company and a distribution company."

Eric Veron and Mary Claire are typical technical directors and rarely care about things other than animation production. They have heard of Ronan Anderson and Relativity Entertainment, but they don't know much about it.

Chris Mellardley is a nostalgic person and wants his old subordinates to have a good place to go, so he contacted Ronan several times to deepen his understanding. He then said: "Relativity Entertainment is developing very well, and it is gradually approaching the forefront in Hollywood second-tier companies. If you are interested in talking to Ronan Anderson, you can call him directly."

Chris Renard knew a little about Ronan and Relativity Entertainment. He was the first to take the card on his desk and put it in his pocket.

Anyway, this is an opportunity, and it is also good to go to a rapidly growing medium-sized company.

He can stay in Hollywood and continue to work on his favorite job. This is a good choice for middle-aged people like him who have a family and a career.

Chris Renard is still grateful to Chris Mellanderley. The boss is still a nostalgic person after all, and he has done what he can and cannot ask him to do more.

Eric Bellon and Mary Claire hesitated for a moment and also put away the card.

The three of them left Chris Melledandley's office together and walked towards the office area. The news that Fox Animation was about to disband had already spread, and everyone was in panic.

"Is Ronan Anderson and Relativity Entertainment famous?" Eric Beron asked Chris Renard.

"In recent years, it has released many super-selling movies." Chris Renard told the truth: "Ronan Anderson is known as the youngest billionaire in Hollywood."

Mary Claire asked, "What about Bi Lion Gate?"

Chris Renard knew these two colleagues and friends, and had never cared much about things other than their jobs and interests. He couldn't help but look at Mary Claire and replied: "The two are completely incomparable."

Eric Bellon further asked: "Liongate Pictures is much worse than Relativity Entertainment."

Chris Renard replied: "As far as I know, Relativity Entertainment's performance in recent years is several times that of Lionsgate Pictures."

Before entering the office area, Eric Bellon suddenly said: "The people from Lionsgate Pictures contacted us two days ago. They are also planning to establish an animation production department and want us to join Lionsgate Pictures."

Mary Claire said: "Liongate has offered us very good conditions." She asked directly: "Chris, what do you think?"

Compared to these two young men who are obsessed with technology, Chris Renard is more knowledgeable and has more ideas: "Let's find a place to chat."

The three of them did not go to the office area and turned into the lounge where there was no one nearby.

"Mary, Eric, we have been leaving Fox." Chris Renard knew the two for many years and had a good relationship. He said directly: "We need to find a new job, and there may be some companies that will contact us on their own initiative, but I think we should not separate."

Eric Bellon said: "Chris, your experience and experience are far beyond ours. What advice do you have?"

Chris Renard said very seriously: "Animation production is the most profitable capital we can make, but action production has a characteristic that relies heavily on the collaboration of mature teams, and it cannot be done by a single person or a few people. Therefore, our greatest value now lies not only in the technology we master, but also in the team of three of us and dozens of people under our command."

Mary Claire is just focusing on technology and not lacking in IQ: "I understand what you mean."

"Next, we comfort the team members and ensure the integrity of the team as much as possible." Chris Renard obviously had already considered it: "The more complete the team, the better the conditions we can get."

Eric Bellon said: "What you said makes a lot of sense. If we separate and just a single employee engaged in certain production techniques, the value will be greatly reduced, but if we get together, we have the ability to complete an animated feature film."

Chris Renard said: "We look for a new next home in the team, and we will definitely get better conditions."

Mary Claire nodded: "I agree."

Eric Bellon then said: "I agree, too."

The three of them quickly reached an offensive and defensive alliance, and there was nothing to consider in this kind of thing, and it would be beneficial to both sides.

Chris Renard asked: "Apart from Lionsgate, are there any other companies in contact with you?"

Mary Claire shook her head: "No more."

Eric Bellon also said: "No."

Chris Renard took out the card in his hand and said, "There is also this relativity entertainment. The boss has contacted Ronan Anderson, and his recommendation should be more reliable."

Eric Veron and Mary Claire understand the boss's character and agree with Chris Renard's statement.

"What are we going to do?" asked Mary Claire.

Eric Veron also looked at Chris Renard.

"You keep in touch with Lionsgate Pictures and don't break off contact. This is also an opportunity." Chris Renard flipped over the card in his hand and said, "I'll get in touch with Ronan Anderson first to see the sincerity of Relativity Entertainment."

"Okay." Eric Bellon agreed.

Mary Claire had no objection either.

The three left the entertainment room and returned to the work area. First, they comforted their team and explained the situation. As long as people who are not stupid in mind know that the united forces are stronger and will also help to raise conditions for the new owner.
