Director: The special effects are too expensive, so I had to make real shots

Chapter 118 Director Xu, don't be cowardly!
Across the ocean.

Redmond, USA, is the headquarters of the world-renowned Weisoft Group.

Weisoft Group held a board meeting at its headquarters today.

As a large multinational technology company, Weisoft Group's annual revenue can easily exceed hundreds of billions of dollars. In the past few years, it even launched the artificial intelligence chatgpt developed by its investment in OpenAI.

You know, once chatgpt was launched, it became popular all over the world, and its users are increasing day by day.

If there is no Guanju, then Chatgpt of Weisoft Group may become a milestone product leading the development of global artificial intelligence technology.

Before that, many domestic and foreign technology bloggers boasted that Weisoft Group's chatgpt will trigger the fourth industrial revolution of human civilization!

At that time, Xu Nuoke had not traveled to this parallel world, Blue Star.

There is nothing wrong with blowing it up like this. After all, chatgpt, which was the Weisoft Group at the time, was indeed a very powerful artificial intelligence, and with its continuous deep learning and version iteration, its maturity is getting higher and higher.

Although there are also Penguin Group, Byte Luanjuan and Baidu companies in China that are developing their own AI, they are still slightly inferior to Chatgpt of Weisoft Group.

however!
Just over two years ago, a hunk was born!
When Xu Nuo first traveled to Blue Star, he built a deep-learning artificial intelligence Guanju based on the existing theoretical algorithms at that time, and then used this artificial intelligence to attract investment from coal bosses, and started to shoot movies and completed them. Tasks are rewarded with algorithms from strong artificial intelligence.

Then the real Guanju was born!
The reason why Xu Nuo didn't let his Guanju go to the international market at the initial stage.

It was because Xu Nuo knew very well that his company was relatively weak at that time.

At that time, it was barely possible to get online with Colonel Luo Wei, and his background was not deep, and the domestic technological strength was not strong enough.

If he launched an AI product of his own company internationally at that time, Guan Ju's more advanced algorithm would definitely touch the interests of gringos.

Then the result will definitely not be beneficial to Xu Nuo.

It may even be unable to support it due to pressure, resulting in having to withdraw from the American market, or choose to succumb, just like the international version of a certain domestic company.

That's why Xu Nuo launched the international version of his company's AI entertainment until now, when the real group has relatively strong strength and he has a deep relationship with the Science and Technology Department.

After all, Guanju is more like a "human" than Chatgpt of Weisoft Group, and can communicate and interact with users through text and voice like a person. Therefore, once the international version of AI Entertainment was released, it was well received by young people in North America. favorite.

In addition, this AI entertainment international version is launched by the company of well-known director Xu Nuo, and its popularity is naturally getting louder and louder in North America. On this platform, you can not only interact with artificial intelligence Guan Ju, but also Carry out certain entertainment consumption, such as novels, music, film and television, and even future games.

This has made AI Entertainment International Edition not only popular in the United States, but also its registered users in Europe, Rihan and other regions are also constantly increasing.

Therefore, Weisoft Group feels the threat of AI entertainment international version to their product chatgpt.

Today, Weisoft Group held this board meeting.

There was only one topic for the meeting, and that was that Weisoft Group had to do something in the face of Real Media's AI Entertainment International Edition, otherwise, the future of chatgpt, a product that Weisoft Group spent a lot of money on, would be bleak.

"Attila, let your AI technology department analyze the algorithm problem of Real Media AI Entertainment International Edition, how is your analysis going?"

As the CEO of Weisoft Group, Bald first asked a technical question.

If we can make Weisoft Group's product chatgpt beat Real Media's AI Guanju at the technical level, then everything will become easier.

only.

As the person in charge at the technical level, Alati's complexion was not good at this time.

"Balder, our technical department has conducted an in-depth analysis of Guan Ju's algorithm, and also found that paper in the "Acta Mathematica" more than two years ago for analysis, but the mathematical logic and equations, we have no Using this method to generate a brand-new algorithm, it’s like...a big mountain, it’s there, and we can’t climb it no matter what.”

Arati said in distress.

Xu Nuo's artificial intelligence Guan Ju has indeed published corresponding papers in international journals.

But obviously, Xu Nuo's thesis only pointed out a direction, specifically how to develop an artificial intelligence like Guan Ju according to this direction. Arati asked professional professors from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for advice, and the other party said they couldn't understand it at all. Even thought it was impossible.

I have to say that Alati's metaphor is very vivid.

Guan Ju's thinking logic algorithm is like a big mountain. Except for Xu Nuo, any genius in the field of mathematics and computer who wants to climb it will find that it is not only difficult to climb, but also forever not up.

Even after climbing to the point of collapse, he still yelled that this is fake, this f*cking can't be a mountain at all, and it's impossible to climb to the top of the mountain!

This is harder than climbing Mount Everest with bare hands!
"That is to say, from a technical perspective, we don't have any solution?"

Board member Keira Fitch looked at Alati and asked.

"Yes, we have tried our best, there is really no way."

Arati nodded dejectedly.

"Then this is really scary Boulder. The basic science of Huaguo is obviously not very good, but such an advanced algorithm of artificial intelligence based on mathematical foundation that even we in the United States can't understand."

Board member Strachey said worriedly.

"Balder, chatgpt is one of our key products, and in this situation, I think we have to do something, don't we?"

Kyra Fitch turned her head, looked at Bald seriously and said.

"Yes Boulder, if we don't take some action, then chatgpt will be very dangerous. From the data point of view, the number of chatgpt users has dropped sharply in recent months, which is very dangerous, and Real Media's The international version of AI Entertainment has more than [-] million users in North America in a very short period of time, which is terrible, and it can be predicted that the number of users of the international version of AI Entertainment will exceed chatgpt in the future.”

"Perhaps it's time to give some nice advice to Parliament and the Commerce Department."

The members of the board of directors said one after another.

After thinking about it for a while, Boulder decided that this should indeed be done. The threat of AI Entertainment International Edition of Real Media is too great. In terms of the future development of Soft Group, it is naturally very unfavorable.

then.

Weisoft Group applied to the parliament to investigate the product of AI Entertainment International Edition.

It is best to find a reason to prohibit Real Media's AI Entertainment International Edition from operating independently in North America, or to withdraw it from the North American market.

domestic.

SARFT.

As a staff member of the film review team of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, Xiao Chen, as usual, started preparing to review the sample films sent by major domestic media film and television companies after he went to work.

"Which movie is today?"

Xiao Chen drank a cup of coffee to refresh himself, but he still looked listless and asked his colleagues: "I don't know when I can review Director Xu's "Iron Man". I heard that Director Xu's film has already Are you sent for trial?"

"I see that today's screening list is "One Life, One Hundred Miles of Cherry Blossoms". And what the hell! Iron Man!"

The colleague suddenly exclaimed.

"Is it really Iron Man?"

Hearing this, Xiao Chen regained his energy immediately, and hurriedly stepped forward to look at the list of sample films to be reviewed today: "Director Xu's Iron Man, it turns out that Director Xu's Iron Man has actually been assigned to our group!"

This made Xiao Chen very excited.

The department reviews all kinds of film and television dramas every day, but Xiao Chen and the others are definitely not the only ones on the review team.

As the first group of people in China to be exposed to various new film and television dramas that are about to be released, they actually have fatigue reactions to various films after a long period of reviewing the films.

However, in China, there is a film by a director. For the staff of the review team, the review will definitely not be sleepy, and they will even look forward to it.

That's right.

This director is Xu Nuo!

Xiao Chen still remembers the last review of Director Xu's film, which was "Big Hero [-]", a sci-fi animated film, which made her still have endless aftertaste after reviewing it.

Finally, I asked my colleagues to go to the cinema to watch it again.

And Director Xu's new movie "Iron Man" has already been very popular on the Internet before, and this movie is still the science fiction theme that Director Xu is best at.

Anyone who likes director Xu Nuo, who can not look forward to this new movie?
The same is true for Xiao Chen.

Fortunately, Director Xu's "Iron Man" was assigned to his own review team for review after it was submitted for review. It was as happy as winning a big prize.

After Xu Nuo completed the filming of "Iron Man", he held a wrap-up banquet that day, and immediately started post-production.

The special effects in the later stage are related, and it doesn't take too much time at all.

Nowadays, in the special effects of domestic and even international film and television, after Xu Nuo's real special effects studio uses artificial intelligence Guanju to produce special effects, the efficiency can be said to be improving by leaps and bounds.

If it is said that the post-production special effects of previous movies are slow like a lazy man.

So now that is simply the donkey of the production team!

As long as you find a real special effects studio for the post-production special effects of many film and television projects, if you are willing to spend a little more money, you can get it done in a month at most.

How terrifying is this speed?
This also indirectly increases the number of films submitted to the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television every year.

Xu Nuo is now naturally more and more proficient in the post-editing and special effects production of the movies he shot, so "Iron Man" only took half a month to successfully complete the post-production, and then sent it to the headquarter of radio and television at the speed of light The Department conducts film review.

After reviewing Xu Nuo's "Iron Man", the reviewers had to sigh that the scale of this film is really big enough!

There are only a few top directors in China who dare to make such a film and television drama, right?
As for whether they can pass the review, it is not up to Xiao Chen and the others as film reviewers to decide.

Just like "I'm Not the God of Medicine" that was reviewed at the beginning, the movie "Iron Man" still needs to be decided by the leaders whether to pass the review.

Therefore, in less than a week, Xu Nuo's real media obtained the dragon label from the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, and the movie "Iron Man" passed the review smoothly.

Next, Xu Nuo needs to consider choosing a release date.

Obviously, the National Day Golden Week is a very good time.

So Xu Nuo asked the company to operate. In overseas regions, Huashi Media, which is a stable and cooperative company, is still used for publicity and distribution. In fact, after the global simultaneous release of "Transformers" by Huashi Media, Real Media has gradually become a shareholder. Huashi Media, now Real Media has mastered 39% of overseas Huashi Media.

Although the preparations for the release of "Iron Man" are of course very important.

But before that, Xu Nuo had to face another problem, that is, after Real Media launched the international edition of AI Entertainment and it quickly became popular, it was no surprise that it received a ruling notice from the U.S. Department of Commerce.

"Boss, something is wrong!"

Wen Ruohan immediately rushed back to the smart villa in Nanshan from the company after the company received the notice of the ruling from the United States. She wanted to inform the boss of this matter as soon as possible.

"Let me guess, is the U.S. Department of Commerce asking our AI entertainment international version to withdraw from the U.S. market?"

Xu Nuo was tinkering with upgrading his holographic desktop on the basement floor.

After completing the optimization and upgrading, Xu Nuo can use the holographic desktop to display the model diagrams and design drawings that Guan Ju built for himself, which will look more intuitive, just like Tony Stark's holographic desktop.

"Boss, you already know?"

Wen Ruohan was slightly surprised.

"How exactly?"

Xu Nuo had long guessed that when the international version of his company's AI entertainment became popular overseas, there would definitely be such a special treatment.

After all, how is it possible for gringos to watch a product involving AI technology go viral overseas and suck away users of AI products from their own technology companies?

"The U.S. Department of Commerce requires us to hand over AI core data and be supervised on the grounds that our company's AI entertainment international version threatens network security. Otherwise, it will ban our AI entertainment international version from operating in North America, and it will also It’s about getting us out of overseas markets.”

Wen Ruohan said seriously.

It can be seen that Wen Ruohan is very angry at Ying Jiang's unreasonable request, because it is simply making trouble for no reason!

"Sure enough, Ying-chan is still the familiar Ying-chan."

Xu Nuo smiled, but spoke very calmly.

"Boss, what should we do? Can we just succumb to the oppression of the foreigners?" Wen Ruohan frowned and asked the boss quickly.

In Wen Ruohan's view, it is obviously impossible for the company to hand over the core data of AI Entertainment International Edition.

Then if you don't do this, you will have to be forced to withdraw from the North American and even overseas markets, but doing so is tantamount to choosing to admit defeat in the face of the unreasonable suppression of the gringos.

at this time.

The news that the U.S. Department of Commerce unreasonably suppressed Real Media's AI Entertainment International Edition quickly sparked a lot of discussions among netizens.

The major media also reported on this matter one after another.

Weibo Hot Search Ranking No.1#US Department of Commerce requires AI Entertainment International to withdraw from overseas markets#【Explosion】

Popularity value: 3.4 million!
This news hit the top of the hot search that day, and became the top news topic on major domestic platforms.

"Isn't this too unreasonable?"

"Damn ugly country, this news made me clench my fists!"

"Ask Director Xu's company to hand over the AI ​​core data? If Ma De handed over this, is it still worth it?"

"Eagle sauce is still stinky and shameless as always."

"Sure enough, in this world, you still have to fight hard. Otherwise, if our excellent technological products want to go to the global market, we will face all kinds of difficulties."

"Oh, so helpless, is there really no better way?"

"Either hand over the core data of the international version of AI Entertainment? Or withdraw from the overseas market? Is the United States so domineering?"

"It must be that Director Xu's company's AI Entertainment International Edition has mobilized the interests of some overseas technology companies."

"Okay, what should Director Xu do now? It's not good if you don't pay, and it's not good if you don't pay. Can you just admit it and quit?"

"Mom, I'm afraid of a ball. If the real group admits to being cowardly at this time, it will be a melon!"

"Director Xu, don't be cowardly. How can the U.S. Commerce Department say what it says?"

"However, this world is like this, only within the range is the truth!"

Netizens supported Xu Nuo's real media, but they also worried that in the face of such pressure, real media might not be able to withstand it eventually, and chose to give in and withdraw from the overseas market.

However, whether it is handing over the core data of AI Entertainment International Edition or being forced to withdraw from overseas markets, this is a disadvantageous situation for Real Media.

Xu Nuo is naturally very clear.

Faced with such a situation, the company can only use one word - procrastination!

After all, this kind of thing is not that you asked me to hand over the AI ​​entertainment international version and core data today, so I have to hand it over to you immediately today.

It doesn't mean that if you asked me to withdraw from the overseas market today, I have to withdraw immediately tomorrow.

Let's put it off first.

There is a lot of room for manipulation, such as filing protests and holding hearings. In a word, if you say that my AI entertainment international version will threaten your network security, then you have to come up with actual evidence came out.

If you don’t produce evidence, you will forcibly block the AI ​​Entertainment International Edition of Real Media, but as long as Xu Nuo’s Real Media lodges a protest and goes through various hearings and other links, this matter will definitely not be settled in a short time Dusty.

But Xu Nuo was waiting.

Waiting for the action of the Science and Technology Department.

As some netizens said, only when you are strong enough, others dare not bully you at will.

Fortunately, this time the United States is only targeting the international version of AI Entertainment.

Xu Nuo's new movie "Iron Man" has been released overseas relatively smoothly.

So Xu Nuo decided on the release date of "Iron Man", which is considered to have caught up with the golden schedule in China in time. At the same time, "Iron Man" will be released simultaneously in various regions of the world like "Transformers".

[Movie mission: Your movie "Iron Man" needs to reach a box office of 10 billion dollars after it is released simultaneously worldwide! 】

Xu Nuo took a look at his "Iron Man" movie box office goal this time, and felt that it shouldn't be too difficult?

After all, his own "Transformers" has already surpassed the box office of 20 billion US dollars, and "Iron Man" is the worst to get a billion US dollars, isn't it too much?

After confirming the release date of "Iron Man", Xu Nuo asked Guan Ju to edit a trailer for "Iron Man".

In the fixed-file trailer, most of the content presented is the plot between people and some explosion scenes. Only in the last few seconds of the trailer, there are mechanical sounds, and then it does not exceed Five seconds of Xu Nuo wearing the handsome Mojia No. [-] steel suit.

The entire trailer is a little more than 2 minutes long, and only the last few seconds are the essence, and can remind netizens of the title "Iron Man"!
But the overall rhythm of this trailer is very good. Guan Ju can be said to be quite proficient at editing trailers. She knows what kind of soundtrack to use, plus pictures and lines, so that netizens can watch it. Have high expectations.

In the end, the brief scene of wearing the steel suit, which does not exceed five seconds, is naturally the biggest expectation of netizens after watching the trailer. It can't help but remind people of Pian Pian, what is the hero played by Director Xu wearing?What will it look like after wearing it?

Isn't this the taste that is full of it?

As for the scene of flying after wearing the steel suit, it was not cut into the trailer at all.

Xu Nuo is so confident.

Under normal circumstances, many movies can’t wait to cut all kinds of exciting scenes into the trailer, but when the audience went into the cinema to watch it, they found out, good guy, the most exciting things are only those in the trailer. , The rest are all hip-pull stuff.

And Xu Nuo believes that for an excellent movie, your trailer must at least satisfy the audience's sense of anticipation, but at the same time cannot edit all the exciting content of the movie.

It is best to let the audience make up all kinds of imagination after watching the trailer, and everyone can make up what the movie is like, and then when they go to the cinema and watch it, they have to exclaim that it turned out to be like this!
After the finalized trailer of "Iron Man" was edited, Xu Nuo asked the company to release the trailer of "Iron Man" on the AI ​​entertainment platform.

[The trailer of "Iron Man" will be released globally on September 9th! 】

Play volume: 10w
Watching: 8w+
As soon as the preview of "Iron Man" was released, tens of thousands of people watched it online at the same time. "The finalized preview.

Sure enough, as soon as Xu Nuo and Guan Ju came out, the preview of "Iron Man" quickly became a hot topic of discussion among netizens.

As for the traffic of the [Movie Iron Man Official] account, it is nothing compared to Xu Nuo and Guan Ju.

Xu Nuo and Guan Ju are now the real top players in China!

"It's not easy, it's finally director Xu's "Iron Man"!"

"After watching most of the first part of the trailer, I was thinking about this? But when the picture appeared in the last few seconds, I'll forget it!"

"If you don't understand, just ask, what are those robotic arms going to wear for the hero in the last few seconds?"

"The picture is so realistic and textured. In the last few seconds, Director Xu must be wearing a set of steel armor, right?"

"It's over. I don't know what to say about the trailer that director Xu cut out, but I'm looking forward to it after watching the trailer."

"Iron Man? Is it a story about a man who strikes iron?"

"Director Xu, what is your company's plan for the AI ​​Entertainment International Edition?"

"Hahaha From the trailer, it can be seen that the leading actor played by Director Xu is just old-fashioned."

"A male protagonist who is a technological genius? Director Xu, tell me honestly, is your character design based on your own design?"

"Judging from the trailer, it seems that there are not too many special effects this time. I don't know if the special effects are all in the main film."

"What special effects are used? Director Xu still uses special effects when making movies? (dog head)"

"Is it true that there are not too many special effects? Otherwise, how can the post-production be so fast?"

"As a film and television practitioner, it seems that the time for post-production has been shortened a lot. As for the reason, Director Xu's real special effects studio has contributed a lot!"

Netizens' enthusiasm for Xu Nuo's new movie "Iron Man" can be said to be the only one in the whole network, because there is no commercial film director in China that can have Xu Nuo's appeal.

of course.

The powerful appeal of a director does not come out of thin air.

Xu Nuo's strong appeal is accumulated through the four films "Terminator", "Transformers", "I'm Not the God of Medicine" and "Big Hero [-]".

Each of these four films has a good reputation, and the box office performance is quite impressive.

Among them, there are many "Transformers" that have gone abroad and become popular all over the world.

This time Xu Nuo's new movie "Iron Man" has also been released overseas, and it was also released on the international edition of AI Entertainment.

That's right, Xu Nuo's company ignored the fact that the U.S. Department of Commerce asked AI Entertainment International to withdraw from the U.S. market.

You make your farce.

I should operate or continue to operate. After all, the United States only proposed it. It will definitely take a long time to get to the point of compulsory suppression and blockade.

And during this period of time, Xu Nuo's company only needs one attitude, that is, never admit defeat!
Seeing this, the United States intends to forcibly block the AI ​​Entertainment International Edition of Real Media.

However, young people in North America are not happy at this time.

At this time, Xu Nuo's popular new work "Iron Man" was released on the AI ​​Entertainment International Edition. Young people in North America are very fond of the sci-fi movie directed by Xu Nuo. AI Entertainment International Edition Guanju above has become the favorite artificial intelligence among young people in North America.

After the release of the international version of AI Entertainment, Xu Nuo asked Guan Ju to release a number of classic English songs from the earth on the international version of AI Entertainment. The types of songs covered a variety of popular elements in North America.

This move can be said to have allowed Guan Ju to gain a lot of fans overseas.

Therefore, when young people in North America heard that the US Department of Commerce was going to block the AI ​​Entertainment International Edition, they immediately protested to the US Department of Commerce!
"I think Guanju is a better AI than chatgpt. I like Guanju very much, but why do you turn off the AI ​​entertainment international version?"

"If you can't even accept this, then I can only say that there is no freedom here?"

"AI Entertainment International Edition is a very good software, and my friends like to use it very much, because its AI seems to be better than chatgpt."

"Guan Ju is really a great AI, she can be anything I like."

"If it is really decided to directly ban the AI ​​entertainment international version, then maybe I will not vote for them again."

"When I saw this news, my mood was really bad. You will only let many people down on you by doing this!"

Based on this situation, the U.S. Department of Commerce had to consider it carefully.

finally.

They decided to hold a global hearing.
