Kazir and Scarlett entered the theater after hustle and bustle. Tonight was a start for Blue Sky Studio to greet their rivals so that they could also create an amazing 3D animated movie.
DreamWorks and Pixar didn't have one thing, it was Kazir Grey.
In Hollywood, Kazir's name was the definition of success. Even though this was his first time working on an animated movie, people were confident that Kung Fu Panda would deliver.
So far, DreamWorks and Pixar were the 3D animation studios that dominated this small but profitable industry. Other studios were trying to follow their steps, hoping to get some of the slices of this delicious market.
Blue Sky Studio's first 3D movie which was Ice Age, was a commercial success, and 20th Century Fox decided to invest more in the company. Especially when their second project was written by Kazir Grey.
"Kazir! I'm happy to see you again!"
Jack Black showed up and gave Kazir a tight hug. Kazir couldn't breathe for a second before the fat actor let go of him.
Jack Black was an approachable actor and Kazir didn't have a hard time becoming friends with him. Kazir and Jack rarely met, especially when The Hangover franchise ended, but they considered each other friends.
Furthermore, Jack felt indebted and grateful that the director hired him in The Hangover as one of the three protagonists. It meant a lot to him.
That was the start of stardom and he was thankful for Kazir because of that.
Since then, Jack always had positive opinions of the director. When the scandal two years ago happened, Jack was one of the people who defended Kazir.
Jack Black voiced the protagonist of Kung Fu Panda which was Po. He Heard that Kazir was the one who recommended him to voice the character.
In this industry, connection was very important. It was hard to find a steady job even for someone like Jack Black. So getting hired in an animated movie like Kung Fu Panda was great. Jack Black was 100% sure that this movie would have sequels so it meant that he had secure jobs for the future.
Besides, he had fun voicing Po. Voicing acting and being an actor was different.
To be clear, dubbing was a normal thing in movies because it was hard to record the voice in open space. Jack Black and the other actors already had an experience in voice acting in that regard.
Some actors couldn't dub their own roles in the movie because of some reason.
The best example was Arnold Schwarzenegger. In Arnold's early movies, his accent was so thick that the director hired another person to dun his lines in the movie.
"It's nice to meet you, Jack."
Kazir replied and also introduced Scarlett to Jack Black.
After that, more actors and actresses introduced themselves to Kazir.
There were more than a thousand seats in the theater and the venue was packed. Some fans luckily won tickets to join the premiere while others had high status in the industry and were invited to watch the movie.
Movie critics were also present, invited by 20th Century Fox to praise Kung Fu Panda... They were probably paid.
"Hi, director, it's nice to meet you."
People were approaching Kazir. He was the type who rarely showed his face so this was a rare opportunity for some people to introduce themselves, particularly the small actors and actresses.
"Director, here's my card. Call me if you want a good time."
A young, beautiful actress casually inserted her business card into Kazir's pocket and winked.
"Excuse me!?"
Scarlett was stunned. She was also surprised by what happened.
"How can someone like her get into the theater?" She fumed.
"Probably through the back entrance?" Kazir replied and then shut his mouth when Scarlett glared at him.
She pulled out the card and tore it apart. She didn't bother reading it.
Sometimes, some actors and actresses used premieres to introduce themselves to the director and producer, hoping that they would get their attention.
Their agents used many ways to get into theaters. Sometimes the actors/actresses themselves use their appearance to get into the premieres.
To be fair, Scarlett also used her connection to get into the theater since she was not part of the cast.
"Are you teasing me?" Scarlett coldly asked.
"I like it when you're angry, you're so cute."
"... Humph!" She scoffed but her expression couldn't hide her blush.
The reason why Scarlett attended the premiere was because she knew that Kazir and Angelina would meet and she wanted to know if Kazir still had feelings for his ex.
"... She's not here."
Scarlett was surprised when she realized that she couldn't find Angelina Jolie. The woman was not in the theater.
Apparently, Angelina had a commercial to shoot so she couldn't attend the premiere. However, she promised that she would participate in promoting Kung Fu Panda.

August 4, 2005.
The first 24 hours of Kung Fu Panda grossed $20.30 million. The movie had a simple plot and it was perfect. After all, Kung Fu Panda's target audience was kids before adults.
Unlike most 3D movies that focused more on wholesomeness, Kung Fu Panda had action which made it unique in its era.
Kids loved it and adults also loved it. At least they didn't feel bored taking their kids to watch Kung Fu Panda because they themselves had fun watching it.
With this, Kung Fu Panda was a success and nobody could deny that Kazir was talented.

[There's a typhoon here in my country and the wind is very strong. Some of our neighbors' roofs were getting opened by the wind... I hope our roof can withstand the wind. This typhoon is probably the strongest one we experienced this year. I'm not worried about the rain, I'm more worried about the strong wind.]
[Yeah, we also don't have electricity tonight because of the typhoon, sigh, it didn't help that my phone's signal is close to non-existent. I hope this typhoon will leave the country tomorrow. I apologize if I'm sharing my life too much. I'm the type who never opened himself, even to my family, and I can only show my vulnerability to the people here on the internet since these thoughts would bottle up if I can't release them.]
