Liu Cixin was a little excited, "Full Band Blocking Interference" is a science fiction film, if two VR segments are added to the movie, the whole movie will be even more science fiction, and it may even become an epoch-making movie like "Avatar". He looked at Zhang Ran and said, "Mr. Zhang must have thought deeply about how to use VR to make movies, otherwise it would be impossible to come up with such a great idea easily." ”

Zhang Ran said: "There are two scenes of man-rat battles in "Year, Month and Day", and I considered making those two scenes into VR, but now the resolution of VR is too low, and the effect is not very good, so I finally gave up. "Full-Band Blocking Interference" may catch up, but it is not necessarily, after all, technology research and development is such a thing, so prepare with both hands!"

Wu Erqi nodded and asked, "Mr. Zhang, can I take a look at the VR camera?" The picture is 360 degrees, and its camera is definitely different from ordinary cameras. I'm curious about how this thing was filmed!" He turned his head to look at Liu Cixin and asked, "Da Liu, are you curious?"

Liu Cixin smiled: "I'm curious, I also want to open my eyes." ”

Zhang Ran saw that Wu Erqi and Liu Cixin were interested in VR cameras, so he said: "Actually, VR cameras are similar to 3D cameras, 3D cameras are two cameras side by side, while VR cameras are a combination of multiple cameras and shoot from different angles at the same time. Because it is the product of multiple cameras combined, it is particularly cumbersome and requires a special rigging device to operate. I don't have a VR camera at home, so I'll take you to see it!"

Half an hour later, Zhang Ran took Wu Erqi and Liu Cixin to Tiangong Chongcai and saw the VR camera.

On the way here, Wu Erqi and Liu Cixin have a lot of imagination about the VR camera, what it looks like, whether it looks very sci-fi, etc. However, after they saw the VR camera, they were a little disappointed, the shape was not sci-fi, but it looked full of grandeur. The entire VR camera is assembled from multiple light cameras, with lenses from up, down, left, right, and in all directions.

No way, this thing was made by Motorola engineers, and the appearance is naturally not particularly exquisite.

The staff of Tiangong Chongcai told Urti that this VR camera is composed of 14 RED Red Dragon cameras, which can shoot 6K high-definition pictures, which is currently the most advanced VR camera in the world.

Urti was very interested in VR shooting, and asked if he could shoot a section to see the effect.

The staff told Urti that VR shooting is completely different from ordinary shooting, and it is a panoramic shooting. There are a lot of workers on site during normal film shooting, but the staff and shooting equipment must not appear at the VR shooting site, otherwise they will be worn out, and the VR camera is too heavy, and can only be operated by the spider system hanging inside the studio, so it is best to go to the studio for test shooting.

Urti wanted to use VR technology in "Full Band Blocking Interference", and was eager to see how VR was filmed, what difficulties there were, and what needed attention, so he asked the staff to take him to the studio for test shooting.

Zhang Ran used the VR camera to do many test shots, so he didn't go to the studio with Wu Erqi and them, and drove home directly.

In the following days, Wu Erzhen was busy doing VR test shooting and did not come to the door again, while Zhang Ran continued to live his leisurely life, except for watching the news on the Internet every day, most of the time he was tired of being with Zhang Jingchu.

The time is fast into September, and the due date is getting closer and closer. While looking forward to it, Zhang Ran also became nervous.

This morning, Wu Ruide and Liu Zuohu came to the door.

Zhang Ran knew that something must be wrong with them, and after greetings, he asked directly, "What's wrong?"

Liu Zuohu said with a calm face: "In addition to China, the market for PLAM mobile phones is mainly in third world countries such as India and South America. Our prices are already very cheap, but they are still on the expensive side for these markets, so we plan to launch a cheaper phone, which is about 500 yuan. It is impossible to use Qualcomm's chip for a 500 mobile phone, only cheaper chips can be used, and we found MediaTek. It was already negotiated, but I didn't expect the International Trade Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs of Taiwan to issue an injunction to MediaTek, not allowing MediaTek to sell chips to us. ”

Wu Ruide explained the cause and effect, he was originally the leader of Android, but after losing the patent infringement lawsuit with Motorola, he was issued a ban on sales in the United States by the U.S. International Trade Commission. Last year and this year, due to the infringement of Nokia's related patents, a large number of models were banned in the Netherlands and the United Kingdom.

Although HTC also lost the lawsuit in the mainland, it was not banned. If HTC manages the mainland market well, it will still be able to achieve good development, after all, the mainland is the world's largest mobile phone market. However, HTC has implemented a discriminatory policy in the mainland, first-class products to Europe and the United States, second-class products to themselves, mobile phones to the mainland, not only the price is higher than other markets, but also often all kinds of castration and shrinkage, and even system upgrades are engaged in double standards, the system of the mobile phone of the national bank is always the last upgrade or even can not be upgraded, and finally many users who originally had a good impression of HTC have switched to other mobile phones.

Under the multiple blows, HTC's profit on the financial report plummeted, and huge losses began to appear, and the company's stock price fell sharply, shrinking by four-fifths. In Wang Xuehong's view, all this was harmed by Zhang Ran and the peak of the century, and she hated Zhang Ran and the peak of the century.

Wang Xuehong's father is Wang Yongqing, who is known as the "god of Taiwan management", the founder of Formosa Plastics Group, and in addition to being the boss of HTC, he also serves as the chairman of many groups such as HTC and VIA, and also serves as a director in many groups, and has strong connections and influence in Taiwan.

After knowing the news that Century Summit will use MediaTek's chips as low-end machines, Wang Xuehong put pressure on the Ministry of Economic Affairs of Taiwan Bend, Zhang Ran and Century Summit have been ducking and dominating Taiwan Bend, duck Batai Bend enterprises, what kind of scourge has HTC made to him, how can he export chips to them? Immediately after, she stabbed the matter to the media. When the people on the island heard that MediaTek was going to sell mobile phone chips to Century Peak, they scolded MediaTek for selling Taiwan. As a result, the International Trade Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs of Taiwan Bend waved a big pen and banned the sale of the peak of the century.

After understanding what was going on, Zhang Ran asked, "What are you going to do?"

Wu Ruide did not answer this question, but said: "In fact, not only mobile phones face chip problems, but we also need chips to do VR." Now we use mobile phone chips to make VR, which is different from mobile phones, which requires stronger graphics processing capabilities, and it is best to have a special VR chip. In addition, we and Barco also need special chips to develop a new film projection system, and we need chips in too many places!"

Zhang Ran somewhat understood the purpose of Wu Ruide's visit: "You want us to develop our own chips like Google and Apple!"

Wu Ruide shook his head and said: "It's too slow to develop chips by ourselves, we now need to use cheap mobile phones to seize the market and increase the global market share of the Phoenix system, I think it is necessary for us to acquire a mobile phone chip company." ”

Zhang Ran was stunned when he heard this, and thought to himself about the acquisition of a mobile phone chip company, what kind of joke is he making! It's not that Zhang Ran doesn't want to acquire, but it is impossible to acquire it at all, because the "Wassenaar Agreement" is stuck there. Computers and chips are the key control objects of the Wassenaar Agreement, and it is a pipe dream for Chinese companies to acquire chip companies overseas!

The predecessor of the Wassenaar Agreement, known as the "Paris Coordinating Committee", was a multilateral export control coordination committee initiated by the United States in November 1949 and headquartered at the U.S. Embassy in Paris. Batumi's membership included the United States, the countries of Western Europe, and later Japan, and its purpose was to contain the development of socialist countries such as the Soviet Union and China.

In the organization of Batumi, there are three control lists, namely the International Atomic Energy List, the International Military Goods List and the Industrial List, which cover industrial machinery, electronic equipment, transport equipment, metallic materials, minerals and their finished products, chemical products, petroleum products, weapons, atomic substances and equipment, etc. When a member state needs to export the above-mentioned products and technologies to a restricted country, it is necessary to submit an application to Batumi and obtain the unanimous consent of all member states before issuing an export license.

With the collapse of the former Soviet Union in 1991, Batumi was officially dissolved on April 1, 1994.

However, under the manipulation of the United States, in July 1996, 33 countries, mainly Western countries, signed the Wassenaar Agreement in Vienna, Austria, and implemented new control lists and rules for the exchange of information from 1 November 1996. Like "Batumi," the "Wa Association" also contains two control lists: one is a list of dual-use goods and technologies, covering nine categories, including advanced materials, material handling, electronic devices, computers, telecommunications and information security, sensing and lasers, navigation and avionics instruments, ships and maritime equipment, and propulsion systems; the other is a list of military products, covering 22 categories of various types of weapons and ammunition, equipment, and combat platforms. China is also among the embargoed countries.

Zhang Ran had encountered the constraints of the Wassenaar Agreement and knew how hateful it was. During the 08 Beiping Olympic Games, BOB TV was preparing to broadcast some games live and needed an aerial camera. At first, BOB TV was looking for French equipment, and the French machine could shoot long shots, and it was more shaky to shoot close-ups. So, BOB found another American company, their equipment is more advanced, and the picture is not shaky. Unexpectedly, the American company refused, because the U.S. government banned the export of that kind of aerial camera to China, on the grounds that the gyroscopes on the cameras could be used for military purposes.

In the end, BOB looked for a relationship, and Zhang Ran also asked someone to find a relationship in the United States, explaining that this was used for aerial photography of the Olympic Games and would not be used in the military. In the end, the United States agreed to let China use the camera, but they asked to send a team over, and any operation of the camera could only be done by their people, and the Chinese were not allowed to touch it; after each day, they had to dismantle the machine and take it back to the hotel to guard it, just like a thief.

A camera can jam you, how can you sell such a high-tech thing as a chip!

Of course, the Wassenaar Agreement is not a mandatory agreement, and it is up to each member state to decide whether to export products on the restricted list, for example, Russia is a member of the Wassenaar Agreement, and it still exports various advanced weapons to China. In addition to the United States, there are chip companies in other countries that may be willing to sell to Century Peak. But the United States will definitely not agree, because once Chinese companies master high-end chip technology, it will inevitably have a serious impact on American semiconductor companies. As long as the United States jumps out against it, the takeover will definitely fall through.

However, Zhang Ran believed that Wu Ruide dared to put forward this suggestion and that there should be a solution, so he said: "Do you have a way to bypass the Wassenaar Agreement?"

Wu Ruide smiled: "Of course not, there is no need to go around! We have a company in China that can produce mobile phone chips!"

Zhang Ran does not know much about the chip industry, and in his impression, the only domestic companies that can design mobile phone chips are Huawei, and there are some other chip manufacturers, but they do not produce mobile phone chips. Loongson, for example, produces computer chips. He couldn't help asking, "Is there one in China?"

Wu Ruide nodded and said, "Spreadtrum!"
