Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Great Shock of the Film Industry?

Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Great Shock of the Film Industry?

It didn't take long for the media's speculation to come to fruition, and as Lachlun and others returned to the United States, they began to act, which can be described as thunderous and swift. As the CEO of the film distribution company, 21st Century Fox, Lackwheel naturally hopes that the sequel to "Avatar" will do better, and naturally the film company's profitability will be higher.

In fact, it's a win-win-win situation, i.e., cinemas, distribution companies, directors, and matrix technology.

The Hollywood Reporter was by no means the last, not long after they returned to the United States, another piece of news appeared in the public eye, Emperor Cinemas announced that it was canceling the expansion of up to 30 iMax giant screens signed with the Canadian company iMax more than a month ago, and did not hesitate to pay up to $10 million in liquidated damages.

Not only Emperor Cinemas, but also several other American cinema companies have also announced the cancellation of the recently added iMax contract and paid a lot of liquidated damages.

The huge order for 50 giant screens was canceled like this? The liquidated damages were paid so quickly, but the executives of iMax were not happy, because these events meant that bad things were coming. Matrix Technology, this company made iMax faintly feel the taste of fear, is Matrix Technology going to enter the film industry? The other party's net profit revenue in one month is enough to buy the entire iMax industry, and iMax definitely does not want to compete with such a behemoth.

The two sides are no longer on the same level at all.

Not only did several major theater companies in the United States quickly take action, followed by 21st Century Fox Film Company, one of the six Hollywood giants, and the "Avatar" project team also held a press conference later, and the big director Cameron was also on the list.

Laklun: "We have decided to readjust the schedule of "Avatar 2", and the release time will be adjusted from next year's summer schedule to the year after, that is, the global release of the Christmas schedule on December 18, 2021. Laklun smiled at reporters and added: "This time is definitely the final confirmation schedule, and I promise that there will be absolutely no more ticket jumps." "Avatar" lasted 12 years of production cycle, and "Avatar 2" unexpectedly also lasted 12 years of production cycle, maybe this is God's arrangement. ”

The reporter asked: "Excuse me, the recent news shows that "Avatar 2" has a new technological innovation? ”

Laklun: "Yes, the important reason why we have deliberated and decided to finally adjust the schedule of Avatar 2 is that it will be the first film of 'Panoramic Vision PV'. ”

Cameron added: "I assure you that Avatar 2 will bring audiences an unprecedented audio-visual experience, Avatar will let audiences around the world know what 3D viewing is, and Avatar 2 will allow audiences to directly enter the beautiful world of Pandora and truly immerse themselves in the world of cinema." ”

The reporter asked: "What kind of technology is 'Panoramic Vision PV'?" How will it make the audience feel? ”

Laklun responded with a smile: "As director Cameron said, the audience is immersed in it, and this must be thanks to the new projection technology, namely 'panoramic vision PV', which will be the ultimate mode of film screening." ”

If the Hollywood Reporter's first release of the scoop was a prelude, then with the latest announcements from several major theaters and studios, the impact began to gain in the Hollywood film industry.

Not only that, but the impact of multilateral and continuous announcements and diffusion has also expanded, with the news announced by several major theater chains in the United States, the world's largest cinema company, that is, Wanda International Cinema Company, which acquired the merger of AMC Cinemas and Wanda Cinemas in the United States, quickly converged here.

During this time, the unusual flavor of the film industry was too strong.

As a flurry of news continues to be announced, Hollywood practitioners seem to have noticed something, and the latest moves of these bigwigs are a sign that the film industry seems to be about to usher in a big shock.

At the press conference of 21st Century Fox, the only video that was screened under the PV of Panoramic Vision was finally announced, that is, the video of more than 6 minutes sent by Ren Hong to Cameron.

When this video was played publicly for the first time at the press conference, all the reporters and people who saw this image for the first time were shocked and stunned.

"The most top-notch audio-visual feast ever, on December 18, 2021, "Avatar 2", which will be screened for the first time under the PV of Panorama Vision, is looking forward to your arrival. Ready to enter the world of Pandora? At the scene, Cameron ended the press conference with this sentence at the end.

Panorama Vision PV was exposed to the public for the first time, and with the release of that video, its influence was expanded again, and it has gone beyond the Hollywood entertainment industry. Major news outlets in the U.S. followed suit, and there is no doubt that the latest news has shaken the U.S. tech community, with almost every piece of relevant news accompanied by that high-definition video.

"Augmented reality AR technology represented by Magic-Leap, virtual reality VR technology represented by Facebook, and panoramic vision PV technology represented by XlouS company. Who represents the real future? β€”The New York Times

The PV concept of panoramic vision became popular overnight on the Internet in Europe and the United States, and that video was so amazing that it amazed every audience and the entire European and American technology circles.

During the rapid popularity of the PV concept in Europe and the United States, China on the other side of the ocean has already entered the moonlit night, and I believe that tomorrow, the news will inevitably be transmitted back to China.

Hainan.

In the middle of the night, Ren Hong suddenly woke up, sitting and standing mechanically, his body like a spring.

Heavy breathing wheezes in the dark room.

"Nightmares again?"

The lamp was lit, and the faint light struggled to drive away the darkness, Gao Yue got up and looked at Ren Hong, whose face was covered with sweat. She found a towel to wipe her forehead.

Gao Yue's gaze looked at Ren Hongshi with concern and concern.

These days, he has been having nightmares and waking up in the middle of the night by nightmares.

"Are you alright?" Gao Yue said softly.

"Whew...... It's okay. Ren Hong shook his head, and after a moment, he lifted the quilt and got out of bed and walked to the bathroom, "I'll take a shower." ”

"I'll wait for you!"

"Hmmm......"

In the bathroom, the water temperature was just right to wash his body, and his consciousness was washed away by the water more and more sober. He didn't say a word, and stood in front of the sprinkler head and let the water pour down.

These days, he's been having nightmares, anxiety is always with him, and every night, it doesn't take long for nightmares to strike.

During this time, this anxiety often lingers, why is this happening?

"Do you believe in a sixth sense?" When Ren Hong came out of the bathroom, he suddenly said to Gao Yue on the bed.

"Sixth sense?" Gao Yuehu looked at him suspiciously.

"Yes, Sixth Sense!" Ren Hong returned to the bed and took the other party into his arms. "When you think about it, it's really weird," he said. ”

"Suspicious." Gao Yue pouted and said.

"No, it's not paranoia." Ren Hong said very seriously: "Don't you think our company is too safe? ”

"I feel like you need to give yourself a week off, you've been really tired lately, you've only slept 6 hours a day, you haven't had much rest, honey, I'm really worried about your body." Gao Yue looked sideways at him and said.

"Listen to me first." Ren Hong didn't mean to stop talking at all, "We are too smooth, there are almost no obstacles, it's too normal, this is not normal in itself." ”

He felt that his thoughts were becoming clearer, "Although Apple has made a series of counterattacks, it has no practical meaning. Apple's market capitalization has fallen below $400 billion and is about to be surpassed by Amazon, with a market value of more than $250 billion evaporating in three months, can Cook bear it? Can the board of directors behind Apple bear it? I don't believe it! ”

"If you can't bear it, you have to endure it, who makes them competitive? Our technical secrecy measures are also perfect, what is there to say about that. Gao Yueman said nonchalantly.

"No, if things were really that simple, there would be no dark side to humanity. Don't take it for granted. Ren Hong shook his head and said.

"And what are you going to do?" Gao Yue asked.

What to do? He was also thinking, he always felt that something was missing, that he always felt that somewhere he didn't imagine.

After a long time, Ren Hong said leisurely: "Perhaps, we should go home." ”

"Home? Your home? Gao Yue said curiously.

Seeing Ren Hong nodded, she continued to ask: "I heard you say that your grandfather's birthday is on October 12th, and there are still more than 20 days left." ”

"Yes." Ren Hong nodded lightly, "In addition, I want to ask my father for someone, and the company is not safe." ”

"Suspicious, go to sleep, it's already one o'clock in the morning, and you're going to get up again at six o'clock." Takatsuki re-laid the quilt.
