Technology Bigshot

[Chapter 235: The Reappearance of "Titanic" Yesterday]

The emergence of the MST platform will inevitably have a pivotal influence in the field of singing. The magical platform of MST will also achieve everything that the previous concerts could not do. It is between fantasy and reality. At that time, perhaps only imagination Force becomes the last restraint, and Matrix Technology will once again lead the new trend by relying on the charm of technology.

"Since you named the subsidiary, then you are responsible for the establishment of this company." Ren Hong said with a smile.

"Could it be you except me?"

"I lead the internal research and development, and you lead the external operations. Isn't it a perfect combination, hehe!"

"I almost forgot after chatting for so long, there's one more thing!" Gao Yue was about to leave when she suddenly remembered, "Will you take all the IP of "Jurassic Park" so soon?" She said slightly Curiously asked: "Is there a breakthrough in the 'Dinosaur Park' plan?"

"This project is the same as the 'Virtual World' project. There are no big surprises, no surprises, everything is progressing steadily according to the plan." Ren Hong replied: "However, our company's current 'Virtual World' project team has developed The second-generation 'Panoramic Vision PV' technology and 'Mixed Reality MR' technology can be used first. The two major application technologies of 'Panoramic Vision' and 'Mixed Reality' can be used in theme parks. The dinosaur IP is based on The current situation still has a good value-added space, especially under the operation in our hands, it is more prominent. There is nothing wrong with winning a popular IP early. The company's working capital is very generous, and it is only when we find a way to spend it. 'Dinosaur Park' Planning takes a long time, so it’s never wrong to prepare early.”

Gao Yue nodded thoughtfully, "Then I'll go get ready." After saying that, he didn't stop here and left the office immediately.

...

At this moment, there are two hot topics in the world, and they are all related to matrix technology.

The first hot spot occurred in the Hollywood entertainment circle.

It has been 50 days and nights since the release of the sequel to "Avatar", and Hollywood and the film circle are once again occupied by James Cameron and his new works, the so-called unrepeatable miracle in the old truck driver and his works The next miraculous copy was made.

The miracle of "Titanic" is repeated in "Avatar 2". The box office curve of "Avatar 2" is replicating the weird curve of "Titanic" decades ago. Prediction agencies stunned.

Originally, when "Avatar 2" was released, no one would question the popularity of this super masterpiece.

But people are not as good as the sky. During the release period, the largest serial terrorist attack and assassination incident in history broke out in Europe and the United States. There were not many people on board, except for the patrolling army. In the past, densely populated areas and peak hours were extremely deserted. Even the people walking on the road were cautious, and the same movie theater was no exception.

In such an environment that lasted for more than a month, "Avatar 2" happened to be unfortunately released globally during this time period. The shadow of the terrorist attack also "spread" to the gorgeous world of Pandora, and "Avatar 2" was hit by an unprecedented and uncontrollable accident. "Avatar 2", which was highly expected by various film investors, was not unexpectedly affected. It was originally believed that "Avatar 2" had a global first-day box office of 261 million US dollars, and the record-breaking prediction of the first week's box office of 637 million US dollars was not achieved. The final global box office opening day didn't even exceed $100 million, only $91 million.

The first-day box office of 91 million US dollars is indeed a huge number. It is already a big sale for ordinary movies, but for the sequel to "Avatar", which is highly expected by everyone, it is indeed surprising to achieve such a result. You know today But in 2021, the first-day box office of 91 million US dollars, and the global first-week box office of 219 million US dollars, such achievements can be achieved by any well-known sequel, and this achievement is for the "Avatar" sequel. , I just threw myself at my grandma's house.

It can be seen that the impact of this terrorist attack and assassination incident is heavy, and the impact on the film industry is only a reflection of it. There is no doubt that this result is unacceptable to the fans and investors of "Avatar". Even the old truck driver is angry but helpless. He doesn't think it is a production failure. Activity.

Twenty-first Century Fox is also in pain. Investors are even thinking that if this damned terrorist attack happened earlier, then "Avatar" will definitely be postponed until the shadow has subsided before it is released, but the fact is, just in On the day of the release, the attack and assassination incident happened, and everything was irreversible, which was undoubtedly a huge loss.

For those who are jealous, the "Falling Street" of "Avatar" is indeed refreshing for a while, especially Sony Pictures, which has been relatively decadent recently, instantly feels not alone. Warner Bros. has superheroes from the DC series; Disney, which is in its prime, has a series of "big moves" such as Marvel series and super IP "Star Wars" and animation production; Universal Pictures has "Dinosaurs", "Fast and Furious" series ; Twenty-first Century Fox has "Avatar", "X-Men" series, "Deadpool", etc., and even the latest upstart "Blizzard Pictures" in Hollywood with the help of its "Warcraft", "Interstellar" and "Overwatch" The "Pioneer" series of IPs are very popular, and they will become another giant in this field.

Only Sony Pictures is currently the most decadent, a "Little Spider" still carries the banner of Sony, and "Spider-Man" is struggling to support. Thinking of a super masterpiece hitting the streets, perhaps the most unpleasant thing this year is 21st Century Fox, and the thought of having someone to accompany it is still excellent.

However, as time went on, Sony's idea was about to fail, and the eye-popping scene began to unfold. Even the old truck driver himself was surprised.

The stamina of "Avatar 2" is unbelievably strong, and there is a trend of rising against the trend in the follow-up. The global box office of the first week was 216 million US dollars, the second week's box office was 178 million US dollars, and the third week's box office was 142 million US dollars. The most important three The total weekly box office score is 536 million US dollars, barely recovering the cost, and it is very difficult to break 1 billion.

But it wasn't until the fourth week that a miracle happened. The box office in the fourth week rose for the first time against the trend, with a global box office of 161 million US dollars. In the fifth week, it exceeded 200 million US dollars and won 217 million. The global box office of the fifth week unexpectedly broke the box office record of the first Wednesday and Sunday. "Avatar 2" is replicating the strange box office curve of "Titanic" that year, which shocked the entire Hollywood.

Soon, analysts jumped out for two reasons. "Avatar 2" caused the same weird box office curve as "Titanic". The first was naturally the terrorist attacks triggered by Europe and the United States, and the second was Matrix Technology. Produced "Panorama Vision PV". The box office of "Avatar 2" has three major drainage points. The first is the traditional 3D screening hall, the second is the iMAX/China giant screen, and the third is the latest PV screening hall. Especially the PV theaters, nearly 1,000 PV theaters around the world have contributed more than $50 million to the box office of "Avatar 2" every week on average.

The time has come to the present, "Avatar 2" has passed 7 weeks of show time, and has come to the eighth week, and until now, the box office of the 6th and 7th weeks has still maintained a fantastic box office revenue of more than 160 million US dollars, and The popularity of the PV screening hall has not weakened at all. In the past two weeks, the PV screening hall contributed $57.09 million and $59.18 million to "Avatar 2" respectively, and the revenue of the PV screening hall accounted for 38.55%, and It will break 40% soon. This is also the only place that is still in the growth stage, and it is growing at a high speed. The audience who watched it for the first time in the PV theater almost always replayed it for the second time, and even many people replayed it five or six times. "Titanic" reappeared yesterday, not only that, many viewers said in an interview that "Avatar 2" gave them the same feeling as the first one 12 years ago, and the effect of the panoramic view was the biggest shock, Of course the work itself is also very good.

PV theaters are becoming more and more popular, maintaining a strong upward trend. The two revenue points of 3D theaters and iMAX/China giant screen have begun to decline normally, but the steady rise of the revenue curve of PV screening has kept the overall box office revenue of "Avatar 2" still maintained. Incredibly strong and sturdy.

Coming to the eighth week, the global box office of "Avatar 2" began to move towards the $1.3 billion mark. According to the current box office curve, the eighth week will easily break through 1.3 billion and 1.4 billion and begin to rush to $1.5 billion, with 1.5 per week. 100 million, if the "Titanic" really reappears yesterday, the sequel of "Avatar 2" is almost certain to surpass the previous one. It seems that the record of the old truck driver cannot be broken by others, but can only be broken by himself.

The movie entertainment industry was occupied by "Avatar", and a surprising news broke out in the technology circle. Tim Cook did not give any interviews after returning to the United States, but more than a month later, that is, today, Apple Apple Inc. The press conference held to the outside world caused a major earthquake in the global technology circle.
