Chapter 525 Invited to drink tea

The latest website: With everyone's eager anticipation, the movie is officially released online and in VR theaters, and the TV series are also broadcast simultaneously.

Although everyone has already known how exciting this movie and TV series are through the trailers, after seeing the feature film, they can't help but be amazed by the shocking and gorgeous picture effects.

For a while, this movie and TV series not only appeared on various hot search lists, but also became a hot topic of discussion. This also made many people lament that it has been a long time since a movie or TV series can reach such a level of crowds. The ones who achieved this kind of scene before seem to be the "Shaolin Temple" and the later "Returning the Pearl".

And taking advantage of the popularity of this movie and TV series, the sales of their VR series products have also increased, which is extremely hot. And affected by this movie and TV series, their VR series products are no longer limited to young people, but spread to older groups.

Through the implementation of sales data monitoring, it shows that the number of middle-aged and elderly consumers aged 40 is constantly increasing, and even surpassed the young consumer group for a time.

Moreover, compared with young consumer groups, middle-aged and elderly people have stronger spending power, and some consumers directly choose to buy a complete set of equipment.

Also taking advantage of this hot wind, Wu Hao decisively decided to further increase the degree of discount for related equipment. The so-called small profits but quick turnover, the most important job at present is to expand the user base.

Although the current VR user base is close to 20 million, this is far from enough. Wu Hao's goal is to reach 100 million within two years.

Only such a large scale can support the operation of the entire virtual world and lay a solid foundation for its development.

Of course, this hot scene naturally attracted the jealousy of many people. Some people who deliberately find fault and touch porcelain also make trouble and show their existence.

For example, the so-called Film Practitioners Association in a certain province issued a statement publicly accusing Haoyu Technology and Wei Media of launching an online VR cinema line for disrupting the film business market and destroying the real economy.

And some movie theaters have also spoken out one after another. On the one hand, they have concerns about online VR movie theaters and have criticized them. On the other hand, it is vigorously announcing that this online VR movie theater will not affect the normal operation of offline theaters.

Even some theater companies are preparing to blackmail film and television companies and distributors to prevent them from showing films online in VR cinemas.

In this regard, Wu Hao and the others naturally resolutely counterattacked. On the one hand, it is to increase investment in some excellent films,

Control the flow of these great movies. On the other hand, it is to increase the proportion of online dividends and related subsidies to attract more excellent movies to be screened online in VR cinemas.

In addition, Wu Hao and the others are also preparing to organize a team of legal and lawyers to report and sue these theaters for collecting evidence of unfair competition.

Just when everyone thought that a great war was inevitable, the two sides that were on the verge of sword fighting died down.

Needless to say, the relevant departments must have intervened.

In fact, it really is. The industry and information department and the cultural department jointly interviewed Wu Hao and the person in charge of the theater over there to mediate and reconcile.

Wu Hao was specially invited to drink tea in the capital. This is a joke and a metaphor. In fact, the tea that the other party found him was really good, and it was not cheap at first glance.

It's just that he and the bosses at the theater didn't put much thought into tea. At this moment, both sides are accusing each other tit-for-tat, venting their anger during this period.

Of course, this kind of venting cannot solve the problem, and the two sides still have to return to the negotiating table. The opinions of the two ministries and commissions are very clear, that is, the two sides must conduct reconciliation, and this incident must be calmed down as soon as possible.

To put it bluntly, this matter is the contradiction between the real economy and the virtual economy. Because of the confrontation between them and offline theaters, it also triggered discussions and scolding wars on the entire network and even among the public. Netizens and people who support one side express their views one after another, and the quarrels are endless.

Therefore, in this context, the relevant departments must not ignore it, so the two ministries came forward to mediate and reconcile, demanding that the storm be calmed down as soon as possible.

But because it involves the division of interests, the two sides had a very difficult negotiation, and they were deadlocked on key issues and refused to make concessions.

The offline theater chain believes that Wu Hao and his online VR movie theater chain have harmed their interests. Ask Wu Hao and the others to stop relevant actions immediately and compensate for the losses.

Wu Hao and the others did not dare to show weakness, and directly pointed out a series of unfair competition behaviors and evidence of malicious suppression attacks by the other party. Ask the other party to stop these illegal acts and apologize.

In the face of the stalemate between the two sides, it is actually difficult to distinguish between the two ministries. How should I put it, the back of this caring hand is full of flesh, it's not good to hurt anyone.

One currently has a huge market, and the other has great development prospects. So after careful consideration, it can only be mixed.

Even in order to force Wu Hao and the others to reach a settlement with the theater as soon as possible, the mediation leader directly locked them in the hotel, and they were not allowed to come out when they failed to negotiate.

Although the room and board are free and the conditions are good, both parties have no time to spend here, so they can only sit down and talk again.

This time the attitudes of the two sides have changed significantly, because everyone knows that when they don't talk about it, they have to stay forever.

So the two sides began to negotiate, and after a series of tug-of-war, they finally reached a settlement agreement.

The agreement is long and contains a lot of content. But the overall content is that neither side can use the resources in their hands to suppress the other, and agree to include Wu Hao's online VR movie theater chain into the domestic theater chain alliance.

Of course, there is a condition for this, that is, Wu Hao and the others must open up the relevant technologies, and they cannot use technology as a threat to force the film studios and distributors to choose them. At the same time, Wu Hao and the others must ensure that the source of the released film is protected and must not be leaked. If it was leaked due to their negligence, then they will compensate for the related losses.

In addition, in terms of price, Wu Hao and the others are not allowed to cut prices at will to promote fair competition.

As a sign of sincerity for reconciliation, the films that Wu Hao and the others collaborated with will also be screened in theaters and so on.

Although this settlement agreement allowed them to make a lot of concessions, it is still relatively beneficial to them in general. At least it won them a stable development environment, which is what Wu Hao wanted most.

As for the rest, I will talk about it later, boiling frogs in warm water, and ants eating elephants, he still has some patience for this.

With the news of the reconciliation, this made netizens and the public feel a little disappointed while lamenting the swift action of the relevant departments. For them, it seemed that they had missed a good show.

Of course, this news is also good news for many people. Because the Xianxia movie, which is currently being screened in online VR cinemas, will land in offline theaters in the form of 3DIMAX, which is definitely a happy event for many people who have not yet bought or cannot afford VR equipment. Everyone said that the movie was good, and they wanted to buy tickets to see it for themselves to see if it was good.
