Technological Hegemony

Chapter 398 Box Office and May

After experiencing a slump on the first day of release, with word-of-mouth erupting in full swing, Let That Witch pull out an amazingly steep line on the movie data network, and the attendance rate soared like a rocket.

By the evening of the second day of the screening, it had reached an unbelievable 97%. That is to say, from the second day onwards, it was hard to get a ticket to let go of that witch. Grab it!

The screening rate of the major theaters also began to skyrocket. By the third day of the release, the national screening rate had reached a record high of 80%!

You know, there are five films released during the Spring Festival at the same time, let go of that witch alone accounts for 80%, and the other four films add up to only 20%, which shows the ferocity of it.

No wonder the famous film critic Shi Hang shouted, "The notorious Chinese film industry is finally coming to an end. When straight men with technical backgrounds start playing movies, 99% of the traditional film companies will die!"

People who eat film reviews are always talking nonsense, but perhaps Mr. Shi Hang is right, a new era is indeed coming unstoppably.

A movie may not be able to change anything, but how can those filmmakers understand the horror of the behemoth of science, with the help of super algorithms, super rendering engines, and AI blessings from extraterrestrial civilizations, let go of movies at the level of that witch , Star Technology is fully capable of mass production like the Chinese cabbage in the field!

Usually, people think that nerds are honest and can't eat movies.

However, this is not the case. Luo Jia can refute this argument with personal experience, nonsense! A creature like an otaku, who looks honest on the outside, but is very coquettish on the inside!

How did Star Technology, such a powerful high-tech company, become the world's largest manufacturer of inflatable dolls?

It’s not the ghosts of those honest nerds. In order to satisfy their coquettish hearts, they have developed a new type of silicone that makes people crazy. The gel is transparent and tender, as elastic as a little girl’s face. A temperature close to human body temperature.

With age and aging, even the most beautiful women will become shriveled due to the loss of excessive collagen, the skin will lose luster and elasticity, and the pores will become thicker. However, the inflatable dolls produced by Star Technology will always be the most youthful and beautiful. age.

Misaka Mikoto like this, Luo Jia just wants to say, please give me a dozen!

In short,

When Star Technology began to enter the film industry, the original people and order in the film industry became no longer important, because the straight men of steel always firmly believed that the reason why order exists is to be subverted.

It was released for three days, and the box office broke through the two billion mark, breaking the fastest record created by Avengers III.

And as of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Release That Witch has been screened in more than 100 countries around the world, and word-of-mouth has been thoroughly fermented.

The audience originally thought that a high-tech company like Xingchen Technology must show off its technology when making a movie. As a result, the tough guys not only showed off their technology, but the plot also exploded into a mess. The whole process was full of hormones and passion.

The Rotten Tomatoes index is 98%, and the Douban score is 9.4. The movies that can get such a high rating in film history are all classics such as Forrest Gump, The Killer Is Not So Cold.

In a blink of an eye, it came to the sixth day of the first lunar month, the day when Xingchen Technology officially started.

Although facing an epic battle in the technology field between China and the United States this year, and the company is under great pressure, Luo Jia insisted on giving everyone a holiday and forcing them to go home to rest.

After all, there is no end to the path of science. With the development of the company, there will be more and more opponents, and we cannot always live by fighting chicken blood.

According to the usual practice, Luo Jia wished all his colleagues New Year's greetings, made a fortune, and held a big banquet that night, which was called the start-of-work banquet.

After drinking for three rounds, let go of that witch, the movie, naturally became the main topic of everyone's chat.

"Judging from the current situation, there should be no problem with the domestic box office record, but the global box office is not necessarily the case. Avatar's box office of 2.8 billion US dollars has always dominated the list since 2009, and no one can surpass it."

"Indeed, even if we can achieve a domestic box office record of more than one billion US dollars, it is still relatively difficult to surpass Avatar on a global scale. So far, North America and some European countries are still stuck in our review and have not approved it. It's showing."

Everyone sighed for a while. It was a frustrating thing that a full-CG movie made with so much effort could not be released in North America. However, film review is an established right of a sovereign country, and North America does not approve it, and there is no other way.

Zhang Dongning shook his wine glass with a smile and said, "My colleagues in Germany were very angry that they couldn't see the film in the first place, so they organized a group to watch it in Ukraine."

Everyone was skeptical, and An Ran asked puzzledly: "Ukraine and Germany are not close to each other, so far away, and it's winter, why not go to Poland, our movie is currently being screened in Poland, and the neutral country of Switzerland can also do it."

Zhang Dongning said in a low voice, "I went to Ukraine not because of the distance, but because of the cheapness. The rent of a five-star hotel is 100 euros, and it's 100 euros to spend the night with an 18-year-old blond horse. So, you guys understand."

Everyone smiled knowingly, but after thinking about it carefully, they suddenly felt very sad.

After all, it is Ukraine. The Dnieper River runs through the center of the huge plain, with fertile water and soil. It is known as the granary of the whole of Europe. It also inherited a large amount of industry and munitions from the big brother of the Soviet Union. There are more than 100 nuclear launch silos alone.

How did Ukraine, which is so awesome, become what it is today?

Li Moran, who has never spoken much, suddenly said: "This is probably what Mr. Luo said, you can't do anything to be a dog licker, because in the end, you will end up with nothing."

Everyone suddenly realized, isn't it? As the most loyal licking dog in the EU and North America, after independence, Ukraine first destroyed all its nuclear bombs, tanks, bombers and other properties as a vote to join the Western camp.

Then he acted as the vanguard of the West's anti-Russia. Originally, Ukraine and Russia were like brothers and sisters, but under the instigation of the West, they staged a scene of brothers against each other. They were beaten up by the Communist Party and lost Crimea. Not to mention, it is not certain whether the East can be kept. Recently they elected a comedian to be the president, playing the absurd drama of an actor ruling the country.

Of course, the reasons for a country's decline must be complicated, and it cannot be explained clearly in a few words, but for Huaxia, the bloody examples of Ukraine and the former Soviet Union must be kept in mind.

Luo Jia frowned. He looked at the time, and it was only eight o'clock in the evening. More than half of the people at the banquet in the cafeteria had already left, as if everyone had no intention of attending the party, and they all left without knowing where they went.

"If it weren't for Mr. Luo's face, let alone the opening banquet, most people would not want to go home during the Spring Festival." An Ran said bluntly: "Because everyone knows very well that the movie is just a small place on the road to the stars and the sea." Interlude, the real challenge is the chip, and that thing is the real problem."

"According to the plan, in March, we will verify our independent architecture and Chinese logic instruction set. In April, we will complete the preliminary preparations, and the blueprint will be handed over to SMIC for tape-out. In May, we will officially face Intel."
