Chapter 90: US$2 billion order (two chapters merger)

At the same time, the Western Hemisphere is upright and upright.

Pentagon, USA.

A black car drove into the government-controlled area. The driver showed his license and evidence. After a while, he was immediately released. The black car finally steadily entered the Pentagon controlled area. Several white men wearing black suits and black sunglasses on the car entered the Pentagon silently.

The white men came to an office in the building. After a while, the female staff in the building brought one of the men carrying a silver code box to an office on the fourth floor. A middle-aged man in his forties was in the office. He was wearing a military uniform and the military rank carried on his shoulders indicated that he was a working colonel officer.

The staff left, and the man in black entered the office and shook hands with the colonel. The two talked briefly for a while. The man in black handed him the silver code box in his hand. Both sides nodded one after another, and the man in black finally left.

The colonel watched the man in black leave the office, and his final gaze focused on the silver password box. He opened the silver box based on the password he obtained. The inside was filled with several paper archives.

He opened the file to browse it one by one. The file included detailed information and proofs of personal identity, as well as eleven colorful high-definition pictures of people. All the people in the picture were yellow faces, ten men and one woman. Judging from the photos, these people were all young faces.

The colonel seemed to be looking for something in these files. In the end, he saw a prominent authoritative seal in a document. The seal represented a clear authorization command. After confirming, he immediately entered his desk, facing one of the computers, and a desktop icon was extremely eye-catching - the SEAL badge.

Not only were strangers coming to the Pentagon with information and a directive, but a similar scene was also happening in the CIA in the United States. Many people have visited these US government agencies with gray activity signs in recent times. The internal staff of these agencies do not understand the exact thing, but the orders and authorizations from above are beyond doubt.

Their goals are exactly the same, and they are directed to a technology company in the China Sea region, which is Matrix Technology XlouS!

The reason why gray activities are called "gray" is because these activities are always carried out outside the public's vision. Organized and purposeful activities, and the public does not see them, does not mean that they do not exist.

No matter what, the earth is rotating forever, and people's lives will not stop.

These days, driven by the news effect of Hollywood, Panoramic Vision PV has been hot and has become a hot topic recently. Although few people have truly experienced Panoramic Vision PV, the video of about 6 minutes has been watched and reprinted by countless people.

Panoramic Vision PV, augmented reality AR, and virtual reality VR, three popular technologies represented by visual impact, are known as the most cutting-edge visual experience device delta. The former is the latest concept proposed by China Matrix Technology and the first and only company with a mature technology system. The latter two are currently involved in most technology companies in the world, and the competition is extremely fierce. The two fields of augmented reality AR and virtual reality VR are currently led by Magic-Leap in the United States and Facebook's subsidiary.

Matrix Technology XlouS Headquarters.

Less than three days after Cameron returned to the United States, he came to Matrix Technology again. Not only did he come, but he also brought a small team to come. Obviously, Cameron is here to further understand Panoramic Vision PV, which is crucial for his upcoming sequel to "Avatar".

It is not that easy to take the first shuttle bus of Panoramic Vision PV in the sequel of "Avatar", especially for Cameron, this is a brand new visual effect. The pictures and scenes are no longer limited to a giant screen of a plane or curve, but a multi-dimensional stereoscopic vision.

This will mean using a brand new shooting technique, which is a real three-dimensional visual impact, and the audience is integrated into it, rather than being limited to a giant screen. The editing technique and scene replacement are particularly important, and long shots may be used more frequently. In short, it is enough to shoot "Avatar 2", but there will be two different editing videos, one is displayed in a regular screening room, and the other is displayed in a panoramic PV.

Screen screening and stereoscopic viewing are bound to be different. The giant screen expression will not be applicable to panoramic PV screening, which means that the same movie will be presented in two different forms of editing. In the panoramic PV screening hall, it must be applicable to three-dimensional movie viewing because of its speciality.

In this way, the post-editing processing of a movie will be doubled, which will also mean that the production cycle of a movie will be longer, and it will also test the director's skills more.

At this moment, Cameron, Ren Hong and several other theaters were sending personnel around a miniature panoramic PV projection hall model. There was also a huge high-precision display screen hanging on the wall in the room, and the three-dimensional modeling of the panoramic PV projection hall was presented on the screen.

"A screening hall will accommodate about 300 viewers. The impact of too many people is inevitable. The audience is outsiders because the movie is a movie, and too many viewers will inevitably affect the viewing experience, and a small number of people will inevitably affect the income of the theater. This is a very contradictory issue. We cannot play a movie that lasts for only a few viewers for two and a half hours, but the price is a normal ticket price, which will lose all the money." said the representative of the theater.

"This contradiction must be resolved." He emphasized again.

"Is there any way to hide the audience? Or technology?" Cameron looked at Ren Hong and said.

In this way, the contradiction will naturally be resolved.

"No!" Ren Hong replied decisively, saying: "And, even if it can be done, the audience will have to wear special hardware clothing every time they enter the screening room to watch the movie, but this is obviously too troublesome and not a good idea. What we want is that the audience can watch the movie normally without bringing any peripherals after entering the PV screening room."

Everyone nodded in agreement when they heard this. It is definitely not a good idea to add other problems to avoid this problem.

"So, we still have to start with the arrangement of the screening room seats." Ren Hong added.

Obviously, Cameron's arrival is a discussion on Panoramic Vision PV. This discussion will be a process of setting standards for PV screening halls. Once the standards are established, then in the future, as long as you want to enter the theater and film shooting and editing techniques of Panoramic Vision PV, it will definitely follow its basic standards.

As long as it is a panoramic PV screening hall for the public, its hardware layout cannot be as good as it wants. It must consider the negative effects brought by multiple people when watching movies. After all, too many outsiders will appear inconsistent in the "movie world" and will also affect the movie viewing effect.

After two days of discussion on the layout of the public screening hall, the result was finally reached and everyone basically reached an agreement.

The layout of the PV screening hall is not much different from that of the traditional 3D-iMax screening hall. The formulation of such basic standards also follows existing objective factors. After all, it is impossible for a public screening hall to have only a few people watching movies, so the cinema will no longer have to do business. Only the rich people in Dubai and the rich people in the world can enjoy a 360-degree audio-visual experience without blind spots. Therefore, the objective problem of profit is inevitable. PV screening halls must be able to accommodate more audiences to achieve commercialization.

In the process of formulating standards, based on the objective factor of the wide-angle of the sight of the human eyes, the wide-angle of the visual angle of the human eyes is usually around 160 degrees. In theory, the wide-angle can reach the range of 180 degrees. For this characteristic of the human eyes' perspective, when watching the movie, you just need to look forward. This standard is also crucial for the director's shooting techniques and lens display issues.

Only by establishing this standard can the director effectively shoot and edit.

The final basic standard is established as: the Panoramic Vision PV screening hall will accommodate a maximum of 330 viewers, and the audience seats will be distributed in a standard 37-degree angle step-by-step manner. Unlike traditional screening halls, there is no screen in front of the audience's field of view, or there is a screen within the field of view. Another point is that there is a crucial feature in the auditorium position, that is, the audience in the seat in the previous tier cannot see the audience in the next tier at all. Such a layout will create a visual deception effect for the audience, that is, no matter which row the actual seat is in, it can be regarded as the first row. In this way, the sense of incongruity will be greatly reduced, but the space share of the screening hall will also be expanded, but it is also within the acceptance range.

The images presented by the panoramic vision PV are three-dimensional. At the beginning of the movie, the audience's vision is integrated with the movie world, and the objective factors brought about by the distance and distance of the seat can almost be ignored.

Because, the audience is in the movie world.

It is worth mentioning that when the audience looks forward to the concept and the wide-angle factor of the horizon based on the objectivity of the human eye, the director only needs to produce a scene horizon that is theoretically 180 degrees and actually floats up and down based on the theoretical wide angle. In this way, the director is more relaxed in camera editing and shooting. After all, the difficulty of 360-degree panoramic display and 180-degree panoramic display is not as simple as dividing by two.

But the audience's head cannot be constant, and the vision will always expand as the head sways left and right. For this reason, the angle of the movie world must be 180 degrees higher than the theoretical one.

It took three days to formulate standards for Panoramic Vision PV screening hall. After establishing the standards, Cameron had no reason to stay in Matrix Technology. He led his team to leave China first.

The heads of several major theater companies in the United States did not leave immediately. The reason why they did not leave was naturally about the construction of the Panoramic Vision PV screening hall.

In the end, despite negotiations between the two sides, Emperor Cinema Company first signed the first PV order contract with Matrix Technology. The 30 venues that originally wanted to undertake the iMax screening hall would become the construction address of Panoramic Vision PV screening hall, and an additional 10 venues were added. The price of Matrix Technology for selling a Panoramic Vision PV screening equipment was US$4.35 million. In addition to other seats purchased, renovation and on-site arrangements, the final cost of adding a PV screening hall was about US$4.9 million.

This time, Matrix Technology signed a contract with these major American theater companies to a total of 116 PV screening halls, totaling US$500 million.

According to the contract content, one year later, Matrix Technology will send a team to the United States to form a PV screening hall.

As these people left China with satisfaction, not long after, Diwang Cinema Company announced that it would undertake the construction of a PV screening hall a year later, and another group of people also arrived at Matrix Technology five days later. The heads of major cinema companies around the world are coming for Panoramic Vision PV, among which Wanda International Cinema Company, the world's largest cinema company, is also listed.

These people's approach is exactly the same as those of the Imperial Cinema. They all abandoned iMax and Chinese giant screens without hesitation. The screening halls of the same level and price are only selected for Panoramic Vision PV. This is the mainstream trend in the future, and it is obvious.

To promote these theater companies to "group" together, we have to say that the 21st Century Fox Film Company has become a salesman of Matrix Technology for free. After all, the number of Panoramic Vision PV screening rooms in the future will affect the box office data of "Avatar 2". As the first Panoramic Vision PV released, Larkland can smell the smell of money whenever he thinks of this. The more PV screening rooms, the higher the box office of "Avatar", which is undoubtedly.

Why not to win the win-win situation?

According to Lark's vision, on the day "Avatar 2" was released, PV screening halls around the world must have more than 700 screens to have a sufficient impact on the box office.

This time, a team led by Wanda International Cinemas Company came to Matrix Technology and finally successfully finalized a big order.

Wanda International Cinema Company, which is backed by Wanda Group, is indeed rich and has signed 150 PV projection equipment in one go. Other theater companies from all over the world have also placed orders. Matrix Technology has not even established a PV production line, and a total of 503 PV projection equipment have been successfully finalized.

With 503 PV projection equipment, Matrix Technology has obtained a huge revenue of US$2 billion. These theater companies are not afraid of it, because the high liquidated damages in the contract are guaranteed, and Matrix Technology is a technology giant company worth US$500 billion, so its credibility naturally does not need to be questioned.
