Backtracking to the Age of Literature and Art

Chapter 994 Home Camera

In fact, even before the popularity of video sites, there are already many people on the Internet who have gained a large number of fans by virtue of their outstanding looks.

Photos can be posted on the Deep Space Tribe, and many tribal owners sometimes attach some photos when they share their lives.

For example, some tribal owners who do travel sharing, they must share photos taken during travel, and generally good-looking tribal owners will also let themselves appear more in the photos.

At the beginning, the tribal owners had some concerns, some were embarrassed, and some were concerned about personal privacy, but gradually, they found that tribal owners who often post photos are more likely to gain fans, so they let go of their concerns .

Some time ago, there was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old Danish girl on Deep Space Online who immediately gained 10,000+ fans because she posted a photo of herself reading a book in the garden on the Internet.

At that time, many people paid attention to this little Danish girl, and said that it was only because the little girl was holding a copy of Yu Dong's "Old Books" in her hand. Everyone was a loyal reader of Yu Dong and wanted to discuss literature with the little girl.

But in fact, these fans who follow her are of course not because of the "Old Book" in her hand, nor because the flowers in her garden are more beautiful, but simply because the little girl is more beautiful.

Of course, appearance is only one aspect. With the advent of the video website era, more and more people who are good at making videos will appear.

Now for most people, shooting and making videos is a very distant thing, but with the development of the times, ordinary people will gradually come into contact with these things.

However, Yu Dong believes that the development of video websites must wait for other hardware and software, including camera equipment for shooting and software for making videos, especially portable camera equipment.

In the past two years, major manufacturers have been researching more suitable storage methods, and they are still in a trial-and-error stage. After Yaweb.com goes online, these manufacturers will also be forced to speed up trial-and-error, because civilian camera equipment The market will grow rapidly with the development of video sites.

The market is there, and whoever grabs it will own it.

The development history of home video cameras is not long. The world's first home video camera was launched by JVC in the late 70s. At that time, JVC also launched their independently developed VHS format. This is a high-density video format. One-half videotape.

The difference between home cameras and professional cameras lies in portability, operability and price. Compared with professional cameras, home cameras are easier to operate and do not require professional training. Users only need to read the manual to understand. The size of the machine Also smaller and easier to carry.

Of course, the most important thing is that the price is much lower than that of a professional camera, so that ordinary people can afford it. Otherwise, no matter how convenient the machine is and how easy the operation is, the price is so high that ordinary people can’t afford it. What home video camera?

Later, in order to improve the clarity, VHS released vhs-c, and the smaller s-vhs-c and other tape models.

In fact, the upgrade of home video cameras has always been a spiral, and the updated products often have lower definition or lower portability. This is because it is difficult to balance portability and definition.

Because portability is more important in the home field, video camera manufacturers such as Sony, Canon, and Sharp have released 8mm tape home video cameras. The small size of the tape greatly increases portability, but it also sacrifices clarity. , The resolution of the tape home video camera has also been increased to 400 lines.

Until 1995, Sony released a digital video camera with minidv tape as the storage medium.

Since then, minidv belts have almost dominated the storage market for home digital cameras, but slowly, minidv belts still cannot meet people's needs.In August last year, Hitachi released a home video camera that uses DVD discs as storage media.

Compared with minidv belts, the portability and price of home video cameras using dvd are more advantageous.In addition, compared with the previous minidv storage, using dvd also makes post-processing more convenient.

Although DVD also has problems such as large physical size and low erasability, many people believe that DVD should be the mainstream storage medium for home video cameras.

Some people also thought about putting the hard disk into the home video camera, but the effect is not good, so there is no such product on the market.

Yu Dong also knew that later, Sony vigorously promoted DVD storage media, making the product line of DVD cameras on the market very rich, and each major manufacturer had several models.

However, as the technology of flash memory gets better and better in the future, the storage media of home video cameras will also be occupied by flash memory in the mainstream market.And flash memory is also an important research direction of Deep Space Company now. After a few years, the technology has accumulated enough, and it is time for them to enter the camera storage market.

Yu Dong looked in Spielberg's direction, and asked with a smile, "How is the preparation for the filming of "Transformers" going? I haven't asked about it recently."

Jimmy replied with a smile, "It's going on as usual. It won't be fast. It will take some time. Anyway, we don't need to rush. Our company has had enough movies in the past two years. It's useless to do more, and it will waste time."

Yu Dong nodded. He was just asking casually. He was not in a hurry. Anyway, as long as the copyright of "Transformers" is in his hands, there is no need to panic. He asked again, "What is Musk doing recently? Last time I talked to him On the phone, he felt that he was in a normal state, and his eye circles looked a little dark."

Jimmy said with a smile, "Elon has been really annoying recently. You should know that at the beginning of last year, he planned a project called Mars Oasis, planning to build a small experimental greenhouse on Mars. His purpose is the same as Like the protagonist in "The Martian", he allowed the crops grown on the earth to grow in the soil of Mars. For this reason, he also visited our Mars base. However, not long after the project started, he discovered a The thing is that the cost of buying a launch vehicle from Roscosmos is much higher than the cost of developing the rocket, so of course he will not do such a loss-making business. During this period of time, he is thinking about setting up a space exploration technology company. He wants to study how Only in this way can we reduce the cost of rocket launches, and even plan to realize Mars immigration in the future. But this is very difficult and requires a lot of money, so he has been busy recently, and his state is almost normal."

Hearing that Musk was going to build a rocket, Yu Dong raised his eyebrows. He knew that Musk was going to build a rocket, but he didn't expect it to be so early.

"When is he going to set up the company?" Yu Dong asked.

"It should be soon. The main problem is capital. This company has a lot of start-up capital, more than 1 million U.S. dollars. He also asked us if we want to invest a little. I didn't agree with him. His ideal is very good, but it is too illusory. Well, let’s be more pragmatic.”

Yu Dong thought for a while and said, "It's okay to invest a little, but not too much, just a few hundred or tens of millions of dollars, so keep an eye on it."

Jimmy smiled and nodded, "That's fine. I'll ask him later if he wants to invest a few million, but I guess he won't like a few million."

"It's fine if you don't like it, it's just for fun anyway." Yu Dong smiled.

"He will come tomorrow too, tell him about it then." Jimmy took a sip of tea, then lay back, "It's a pity that Manchester United didn't collect tickets this time, and there was no organized game. "

"Let's organize the competition later. They don't have time this time. It's not easy to come here. It's better to put the sports theme day in summer next year, so they can come and stay for a few more days."

Jimmy smiled and said, "Next year will definitely be in the summer. I remembered something two days ago and decided to make it."

Yu Dong looked curious, "What is it related to the sports theme day?"

"Of course it's related. Don't forget that the Jinling Olympic Sports Center has been under construction for more than two years, and it will be ready next year. I haven't thought about this before, but I suddenly remembered it a while ago, so I went to check it out. Their plan is to deliver it in August. I mean, when the Olympic Sports Center is delivered, two teams can be invited to the venue for an opening game.”

Yu Dong raised his eyebrows, "Well, that's a good idea, but will the Olympic Sports Center be delivered in August?"

"There is no problem at all. I have guaranteed the ticket with me. This project started at the end of the summer of the previous year. Because the funds are relatively sufficient and the plan is relatively complete, the construction is going smoothly. Moreover, the government has also followed our advice and decided to The establishment of the Jinling Olympic Sports Center Sports Culture Company is already being applied for, and should be approved soon.”

"In this case, after their company is approved, they should contact the management company in advance to settle this matter. Such a big event should be arranged in advance as much as possible, otherwise if the time is too short, there will definitely be problems later on."

"Of course, it's already on the schedule." Jimmy smiled and asked again, "If you want to invite two teams to play a game, which two teams do you want?"

Yu Dong thought for a while and said, "Personally speaking, I certainly hope that one of the teams is the Chinese team, but for the sake of the excitement and influence of the game, it is better to arrange two more famous and stronger teams. AC Milan and Juventus in Serie A, Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool in the Premier League, Real Madrid and Barcelona in La Liga, Bayern in the Bundesliga, Ajax in the Eredivisie, these teams are all available.”

"Well, I mean let Manchester United come again, and then invite Real Madrid, let them play a friendly game."

Yu Dong nodded, "This is also a good plan. After all, these two clubs are closely related to us, so it shouldn't be too difficult to invite them."

Jimmy laughed, "It won't be difficult for us to invite any team on this earth, and there won't be any team that thinks money is hot."

Yu Dong rolled his eyes and said, "Don't be too crazy, it's easy to be backlashed."

"I'm just stating a fact. Is this called madness?" Jimmy curled his lips and asked again, "By the way, will you watch this World Cup live?"

"Are you talking nonsense? This World Cup is so close, and our team has entered the finals again. I will definitely go."

The top ten matches of the national football team ended in October, and the whole process went very smoothly. The opponents in the same group were too weak to give the national team any resistance. In the end, the Chinese team qualified two rounds ahead of schedule.

Because they qualified two rounds ahead of schedule, the Chinese team used many substitutes and tested a lot of formations in the next two games. Even so, they finally won the next two games and won the 2002 tournament with a record of complete victories. Tickets to the World Cup Finals.

It is a very good thing for the Chinese team to be able to qualify two rounds ahead of schedule. Milu has always wanted to test a few new lineups, but the previous games are very important, and he dare not act rashly. He tried everything he wanted.

In the 2002 World Cup, the Chinese team's qualifying was expected, but this time it was smoother than in the previous world. In the last top ten match, the Chinese team seemed to qualify one round ahead of schedule, but lost [-]-[-] in the final round. To Uzbekistan, broke the undefeated golden body.

"Are you planning to go there secretly, or make your itinerary public?"

Yu Dong thought for a while and said, "Let's make the itinerary public. At that time, we will have to pass a lot of people, and we can't hide it. People will definitely find out. During the World Cup, reporters are everywhere. It's better to make the itinerary public in advance. It can also be regarded as cheering for our national team and boosting morale."

Jimmy nodded and said, "Since we want to disclose the itinerary, we must arrange it in advance. You are not the same as ordinary fans. You don't mean that you can go wherever you want. You must arrange it in advance to prevent accidents."

Yu Dong smiled and said, "It's not so exaggerated."

"Exaggerating or not, you'll know later. Since you're going, get someone to arrange your itinerary later. Say hello to the two host countries in advance and ask them to cooperate with you on your trip."

Yu Dong still felt that Jimmy was exaggerating, but he still nodded in agreement with his plan. It's better to be cautious than sloppy in this kind of thing.

Seeing Yu Dong nodding, Jimmy smiled, picked up the cup and drank the last sip of tea in it.

In fact, it's not just Yu Dong. Now he has to arrange a long time in advance wherever he goes. If he hadn't been in China for so many years, I'm afraid his coming to China now may attract some special attention.

The deep space is getting bigger and bigger, the business is getting wider and wider, and more and more people are involved. As long as they disclose their itinerary, they will definitely not be able to keep a low profile.

Moreover, even if you don't talk about the Deep Space Company, just talk about Yu Dong's current popularity, if he goes to countries such as Nihong and Korea, he will easily get into trouble later if he doesn't tell the local government in advance.

If Yu Dong was discovered on the main road by then, causing congestion and confusion, and some accidents, the local government would be caught off guard, and the local security would be able to take precautions by notifying him in advance.
