123. Toy Storie.

  Raimon's amazing e undoubtedly brought joy to some children who were present o. Raimon's chubby appearand his cheerful attitude after getting over his nerves delighted the kids, thanks to the space suit featured on the movie poster.

  Although it was a bet, Billy had to buy him a two-liter soda and a jar of gummies to ence him during the produ of the film. To the surprise of many, Thomas Carson, the project leader for the cameras, didn't attend, and Billiam Darwirance went unnoticed. This was another curious aspect for those in the knarding this Machiavellian scheme pnned by Billy, where he does his best to hide his boss-like appearance.

  The movie began, and the three-dimensional se captivated the audiehe digitally animated children ran and danced about, while the toys remained pletely still, the surface details like the wood refle, the stru of the settings, and the formation of the house were simply glorious.

  Pixar was four years ahead of its time, thanks to the cooperation of three software panies, progress had tripled, and both Ed Camult and Alvy Ray could only express their gratitude to young Billy.

  -What a great job, - Anne whispered tht.

  -They're magnifit. Do you think the movie will be eveer from ahetic perspective? - Billy asked.

  -Well, it cost a fortuo make, and I'm just plimenting the creators over a movie that looks fantastic, - Anne said, admiring the designs aails she hadn't seen in any other film.

  -Money is not a problem; we'll recover every single t. After all, the try will think of Toy Story for the few months. The campaign we ran is undoubtedly the rgest one so far, - Billy said.

  -Beautiful words, but you're right. We spent a lot on the advertising campaign. I'm sure there are still ercials on five or four television els in some tries here and there, - Anne replied.

  -Well, the important thing is that the movie reach the whole world, - Billy said.

  -It's a shame your father didn't e, - Anne remarked.

  Thomas Carson was very busy. Disney retly filed a wsuit for unfair petition, and Warner sued the repurchase cuse just before the movie was released. The silent war between Warner and Disney against Lux ics tio hang in the air. Getting a distribution deal with a major pany, Sony, was a stroke of luck, a deal iated by the game pany ID Software and its game e was the result of deep mutual is. Billy granted a lise for 10 million per year for the 3D game engine created by ID Software fame proje.

  This engine could only be created in colboration with Pixar, Autodesk, and ID Software.

  -I have a lot of issues to resolve in San Jose. I'm still a bit dissatisfied with Disney and Warner's attitude towards us, but in a way, we o let everything take its course, - Billy said.

  -Well, if it's any sotion, Thomas seems to have a positive outlook on the wsuits. He believes that the panies will back down after ing our money, which they think we have, - Anne said. It's healthy for the pany to remain pletely private, with few people knowing the full extent of the assets beyond what they o report for taxation purposes.

  -That's only a relief. If the repurchase cuse doesn't work, we'll have to create our series from scratd not rely on what Warner did with Hanna-Barbera, - Billy remarked.

  His father had previously mentiohe problem the repurchase cuse could bring.

  -Well, the price of the lises in the initial tract drafted by Thomas states that it's for a smaller amount due to the repurchase cuse. It's being used as a pret, and the idea has caught oand out for the iations with Nike, even before we partnered with Cartoowork Studios. That suggests Warner was just one of many choices, - Anne expined, waking up.

  The sound of the music surprised her, and the story of Toy Story began at its peak. It had been bined with numerous music discussions, which they funded, here and there, so these individuals could help with the soundtracks of all their artworks. The Lux Schorship has been in numerous art and music schools, providing a schorship for a year for all young people from low-ine backgrounds who wao participate, with a 95% schorship. The maximum average was five points above the failing grade, with a good disciplinary record.

  Different ses, such as Buzz Lightyear flying through Andy's room and the childreedly running into the room, tio captivate the audiehe previous delivery of a fully finished script had helped refihe dialogues and sequences, making it even more enjoyable for the audience.

  Billy looked back three rows up at Tom Hanks and John Lasseter ughing over the se, with Michael Orvizt, Tom Hanks' friend, and Roy Disney by their side. Despite their pany's misduct towards Pixar, they were delighted to see the film because they valued ema.

  -I think it will be a huge success, - Billy told Anne, recalling the image of Buzz Lightyear on the spaceship's cover, just like in the movie. The request he had made to the Thai pany for the toys was going to sell like hotcakes. Children wouldn't be able to resist the y of the merdise. The first order for 5 million toys had turhem into toy bosses in Thaind. Another delivery of 5 million toys was scheduled for six months ter, to be delivered in five days, followed by another 5 million. Toy Story would bee ied into pop culture.

  -It's a success. I only admire you for creating this. The work and effort you put into every frame go far beyond what is humanly possible, - Anne said.

  The captivating ses and Woody's journey from a jealous toy to oh good iions, who ends up believing in friendship, had a theatrical but toug impa people, especially the children who were part of the movie.

  -I had fotten how well you write and the gift you have for storytelling," Anne said, moved by the sweetness of the movie in all its ses.

  -I didn't do much. The real geniuses are them. I just pointed where they would point a little ter, but they are the ones who deserve all the credit, - Billy said.

  -Joh say the same, nor do Ed, Alvi, Jasoer, or Randall! They all cim that you're an essential part of the process and that without you, the movie wouldn't be as good, - Anne said passionately.

  -Thank you, Anne, but I'll take the credit when I deserve it, - Billy replied.

  -Well, you deserve it, a no one say otherwise, - Anne said. She returned her attention to the s to watch the se of Buzz and Woody flying in the sky, a beautiful and admirable sight. Randy Newman's soundtrack began to py, his pleasant voice was iious, and Anne couldn't help but hum along a little, followed by a group of violins, pianists, and a choir that made the delivery wonderful.

  -hat a sweet movie. I'll take my younger siblings to see it, - Anne said. She was the head of a family of three, including her grandmother, her younger brother (7 years old), and her sister (9 years old).

  -They'll love it. As an employee, you have a free toy, - Billy suggested.

  -I'll pay for it. Those are for the wuards, and low-ranking employees. They should enjoy it, - Anne replied.

  -Well, you do to the children's home, - Billy suggested.

  -That sounds fantastic, - Anne replied.

  The credits began to roll, but the lights were still off. Then, a quaiail that often became popur years ter started to appear: the small trailer for "The Lion King," the film produced by Lux Animation.

  It captivated the audience present and the many more who were watg the premiere. Only a few well-versed in the business world could see the uping release and the btant advertising by Lux Animation, once again garnering praise for Pixar.

  Some executives sighed, realizing they had never sidered opening a children's film division. However, Universal, Fox, and Paramount (Via) sarofitable business with minimal operating effort and high box office profits. Oher hand, Disney executives were in finite disbelief.

  -Three movies in two years! -

  -What is that? - Anne asked.

  -The Lux Animation film, 'The Lion King.' We're still animating it, and it will be ready for release in June of year. It will pete with a different Disory. Still, essentially simir, called 'The King of Stars,' set in the Victorian era, - Billy expined, having learned about this through people who leaked news of a major Disney movie.

  In trast to "The Lion King," who knows what worthy stories may be hidden behind these new Disney creations? danced But in 1993, a year without the shelter of new animated films, Lux Animation addressed and domihe situation. The score was 2-0 in favor of Lux Animation.

  -Fantastic idea, I mean, we have the advantage. With this little teaser, the momentum is as great as the success of the movie, - Anne said.

  -Exactly, now we just have to wait for the few days. There's a lot of specution about the film. It has passed the filters of some critics, but it all es down to what the audience decides, - Billy murmured, as he didn't have the bag that Disney currently enjoyed.
