Chapter 017: Sensational
With the "Avatar" movie, which was already well-known ten years ago, unfolded in the form of holographic imaging at this moment, the originally unattended A018 exhibition area was suddenly overcrowded, and visitors raised their mobile phones in their hands to record the video, and the exhibition area was filled with continuous exclamations and shocks inside and out.
Sun Liang in the next exhibition area looked at this scene blankly, he suddenly realized what he had missed, and realized what those people who were secretly ridiculed by him had gained, at this moment, the bitterness and regret in his heart were as real as the hologram.
The intestines are all repentant!
And there is even more shame in this place, I can't wait to find a hole in the ground to get into, and I don't dare to face them again.
But there is no regret medicine in this world!
At this moment, the A018 exhibition area has become a high-profile existence, and the VR exhibits and AR exhibits next to it are all overshadowed, which also become a foil for display technology, and all the focus is on holograms.
A few visitors boldly reached out to touch and then penetrated the hologram, and the stereoscopic imaging was not affected in the slightest, and it was also a novelty.
And Ye Hua directly invited several visitors to enter the exhibition area, standing in the hologram is another new feeling, when the plot progressed to the appearance of the land top predator chasing the male protagonist, it also frightened many visitors A scream, and soon there was a lot of discussion, many tourists patted their chests but laughed brightly, as if they were there, it was not too exciting.
And Ye Hua called this kind of experience a 'immersive' viewing experience, and it was only when he invented a new term that he seemed compelling.
"Sorry, let's go, sorry, thank you!" In the crowded crowd, a foreigner squeezed in, when he saw the picture in front of him, when he appeared stunned, it was an interpretation of the inner amazement and shock at this moment.
Shoreline tech?
The foreigner quickly came to his senses, then squeezed out of the crowd, walked to a corner and dialed a phone: "... Gordon, immediately give me an investigation of a Chinese tech company, Shoreline. ”
"Shoreline technology? What kind of business is this? I haven't heard of it! A confused voice came from the phone.
The foreigner suddenly showed a warm anger on his face, and then roared: "Listen, Gordon, it's this startup, Coastline Technology, they have developed a real hologram, that's right, A018 exhibition area, do you also want to see the avatar under the hologram playback?" ”
"I'm going to investigate!" There was a pause on the other end of the line, and a word in response.
"Manager Lu, big news, big news!" ”
"Mr. Dawsonberg, A018 A018 Booth ...... It's a tech hit, my God, you may not believe it but I swear, they're exhibiting holographic technology! ”
"A018 exhibition area, dark horse, absolute dark horse, the biggest dark horse of the annual electronics show, absolutely to shock the industry!"
"Hey...... It's me, hurry up to the A018 exhibition area and connect with the person in charge of Coastline Technology, you must lead the investment in this startup, and now the vampires who are 10,000 times more sensitive than a dog's nose must all have rushed away! ”
"If you can't get the seed round of investment from this tech startup, you can quit your job!" ”
"What? A start-up that has not been backed by any scientific research institute has developed the world's most advanced holographic display technology? Are you sure it's not April Fool's Day? Are you monetizing and scolding us Google-X Labs engineers for being rice buckets? ”
……
The news in the A018 exhibition area spread extremely quickly, and even more so in the venture capital circle, almost all major VC institutions have received the news and reacted immediately.
When Ye Hua started the computing holographic host, and when the scenes of the movie "Avatar" were displayed in the form of holograms in reality, Coastline Technology was destined to become the object of VC capital's crazy pursuit.
The world is in a great era of rapid technological development, in the face of such a background and trend, even the world's super technology giants have to "go to the sea", whether it is independent research and development, or the acquisition of other start-up technology companies, everyone's purpose is the same, is not to fall behind others when the next wave of technology is surging and impacting, especially competitors.
No tech giant should underestimate any tech start-up, because among these countless tech start-ups, there is the potential for an emerging giant that will disrupt the world.
For the established tech giants, what they have to do is to buy it outright, or invest in it, or desperately suppress it before they have grown up.
For example, after the birth of the foreign social software "burn after reading", after its founder refused Facebook's acquisition offer, Zuckerberg began to frantically suppress it, and at the same time copied the other party's social functions; There are also examples in China, such as the rise of the current mobile APP Douyin short video has been frantically suppressed by WeChat, because "Douyin" has now reached 500 million monthly active users in the world, covering more than 150 countries and regions around the world, doubling is the same volume as WeChat, obviously, WeChat's status is being challenged, although "Douyin" is not yet able to face WeChat, but obviously this penguin is getting more and more panicked.
And today's International Electronics Exhibition, located in the A018 area of the coastline technology exhibition holographic image is a super bombshell, holographic technology imagination space is really too big, this is enough to change the world's emerging display technology, otherwise why the laboratories of scientific research institutions and technology companies in various countries will invest heavily in research and development, because the prospect has infinite imagination space.

United States.
The great director James Cameron was woken up by the ringing of his mobile phone in the middle of the night, and he looked at his mobile phone very unpleasantly, but found that the caller was actually Robert Iger, the head of Walt Disney, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
Cameron answered the phone, after all, this is the new owner, because this Mickey Mouse has eaten the entertainment assets of Rupert Murdoch's Century Fox, the acquisition deal reached more than 80 billion US dollars, and also obtained the rights to "Avatar" and so on.
As soon as the phone was connected, Robert Iger said first: "Mr. Cameron, you may be very interested in this, I have already emailed you." ”
"Wait a minute!"
Cameron didn't hang up the phone, got up from the bed and opened the computer to log in to the mailbox, sure enough, there was a new email, opened it and saw that it was a video attachment, and the video was played immediately after the download was completed, and then the old truck driver was stunned on the spot.
"It's ......," Cameron said again.
"Hologram technology, Mr. James." Robert said.
After watching the entire video, James Cameron was silent for a long time, and he did not doubt the authenticity of the video, because it was passed to him by the CEO of Disney himself.
"Mr. Robert, it seems that the release plan of "Avatar 2" has to be postponed again, and if this is true, it must be postponed." Cameron replied firmly: "I think I should prepare as soon as possible to go to the other side of the ocean and experience this technology for myself." ”
Intuition is constantly telling him that the application of this technology is very likely to be like "Avatar" that used 3D technology ten years ago, and "Avatar 2", which is now being filmed, also uses new technology, that is, naked-eye 3D technology, but it is really incomparable with holographic image technology, and it is no longer a level at all.
