In fact, the main reason why many current blockbusters are unsatisfactory is that the country lacks the talent to shoot blockbusters with a budget of hundreds of millions or even hundreds of millions.
The less talent there is, the easier it is to concentrate resources on a few big directors and let them make blockbusters.
As a result, these great directors are actually directors who make low-budget art films.
Without experience in making blockbuster films, it would be a bad thing if you try to encourage them to grow.
If we make movies along the lines of "Heroes of China", "Heroes of China", and "Kung Fu", we can actually make blockbusters that suit the national conditions.
If you want to build a bigger picture, if you try to compete with Hollywood now, it will be too big a step.
Not only is the talent pool insufficient to support such a big ambition, but even if there are Hollywood-level standards and investment amounts, the market is not ready yet.
Movies are very commercial!
The budget for making a film mainly depends on how much budget the market can bear!
According to the domestic film carrying capacity in 2005, the box office of top blockbusters was more than 1 million yuan, which means that the investment budget of top blockbusters should not exceed 4000 million.
That is to say, the budget is less than 500 million US dollars, which is the range of the current Chinese-language blockbusters, and the investment can be returned.
As for the special effects behind the blockbuster, the technical threshold is not as high as imagined.In essence, it is nothing more than the development of semiconductor hardware and the application of software.
With enough programmers, it is not too difficult to develop special effects software related to the film and television industry.
Then, there is the cultivation of talents who use software for special effects and post-production.In fact, even if you invest in blockbusters with budgets of hundreds of millions, you can't cultivate a few domestic special effects talents.
On the contrary, the special effects of these blockbusters are more favored by companies that have done special effects for Hollywood blockbusters.In fact, the labor costs for special effects production of Eagle Sauce are expensive and the quotations are high. The small amount of money given by domestic special effects blockbusters is just a perfunctory one.
Chinese-language blockbusters like "The Promise", with their expensive star salaries, and the special effects produced by the opaque special effects studios in the Yingjiang area, quickly burned through the money.
To be honest, the budget used for filming is estimated to be no more than 1000 million.
Moreover, I was still impetuous and blindly relied on post-production special effects. During the filming, I actually forgot how to make a qualified movie.
In the end, there is a high probability that this kind of bad movie will be made.
The reason why domestic special effects blockbusters will gradually improve in the future is mainly due to the continued development of the domestic film market. Some low-cost films have also begun to use some special effects technologies, and many of the special effects orders for those low-cost films have been handed over to domestic special effects studios.
In fact, special effects studios at home and abroad use some commonly used software. Even if there is a slight gap between software versions, essentially the gap is not too far.To put it bluntly, special effects software is like a paintbrush. Drawing good paintings is the artistic creation experience of special effects personnel.
After computer hardware and software reach a certain level, the gap in special effects is no longer a technical factor, but more a matter of the experience and artistic level of the special effects personnel.
In essence, film and television special effects now seem to be a high-end industry. In fact, in Zhao Han's view, this is not a hard-core technology industry.
At present, domestic related industries are not good, and there is more of a lack of experienced talents.It is not too difficult to purchase or develop relevant special effects software.The difficulty is to accumulate a large number of talents who use special effects software to create.Special effects are actually a kind of artistic creation, not just a technical matter.
Unknowingly, Zhao Han sent Chen Jingjing home.
Chen Jingjing's new house is in the same community as Zhao Han.The area is extremely large compared to ordinary residential areas, with at least more than 1000 households.
As for Chen Wenwen, he also bought a set, but it was in the neighborhood next door.The two sisters, unlike before, lived together.
"Brother Zhao Han, I'm afraid of being alone at night. Can you stay with me for a while?" Chen Jingjing suddenly grabbed Zhao Han's sleeve.
"Hmm..." Zhao Han couldn't help but smile, "How old are you? You're still afraid of the dark."
Zhao Han couldn't help but be stunned, remembering some memories from his childhood.At first, after Chen Jingjing's father passed away, she was particularly afraid of night and did not even dare to sleep in her own home.
For a while, Jiang Xiaoru sent Chen Jingjing to Zhao Han's house.We slept in the same bed together for a while.
However, I was still young at that time and didn’t have any strange thoughts.
I just feel that this Jingjing is really timid and dare not sleep alone.
Now that I think about it, it was Zhao Han who lacked empathy when he was a child.
"Okay, I'll stay with you!" Zhao Han said softly.
"Well! Brother Zhao Han, can you sleep with me like you did when you were a child? Can you tell me a story?" Chen Jingjing said.
"..." Zhao Han finally found out how he developed his hobby of writing novels.
When he was a child, Zhao Han was actually literate at a younger age than Chen Jingjing, mainly because he was enlightened earlier.Before entering elementary school, I had actually learned some common Chinese characters and mathematics, and probably learned the knowledge in advance about the third grade of elementary school.
Therefore, when I was young, I could read some novels and story telling by myself, and then tell them to Chen Jingjing as a bedtime story.In fact, there were even some horror stories, which made Chen Jingjing even more frightened and did not dare to sleep alone.
"Okay! It's true, I have the same personality as when I was a child." Zhao Han pretended to be impatient, but in fact he was a little restless, reliving old dreams with Chen Jingjing.
Stripping off with lights out.
Zhao Han and Chen Jingjing lay side by side without any movement, mainly because they were afraid that they would not be able to withstand the test.
Chapter 480
Night, hazy.Zhao Han felt that Chen Jingjing turned over and her body suddenly pressed against his.
It has a soft touch and a hint of sweet smell.Zhao Han gradually felt a little short of breath.
"Jingjing, you pressed me." Zhao Han whispered.
For a long time, Chen Jingjing did not respond. She seemed to have fallen asleep. In her dream, she used a more intimate posture and pressed against Zhao Han.
Zhao Han could only feel secretly that it was both exciting and tormenting.The main thing is that he doesn't dare to make big moves.
After a "painful" struggle, Chen Jingjing suddenly stopped pretending and said quietly: "I'm not asleep. Brother Zhao Han, is it hard to bear it?"
"Jingjing, don't be like this." Zhao Han felt that his lifeline was being squeezed by her legs.
"I'm no longer the kid I used to be. I'm an adult now. That's okay, brother Zhao Han." Chen Jingjing said, "Am I not as good as that Liu Mengcheng?"
Zhao Han couldn't help but smile bitterly. In fact, compared to their figures and looks, Chen Jingjing and Liu Mengcheng were on the same level.
However, Liu Mengcheng had an extra feeling before, the feeling of bullying his master, which made Zhao Han a little unable to control himself after his rebirth.
Of course... that's not to say that Chen Jingjing doesn't have that charm. The main thing is that Zhao Han, before his rebirth, took the initiative to avoid Chen Jingjing.
It seemed that accepting to be with Chen Jingjing was surrendering to fate. The kind of marriage that his parents joked about when he was a child became his only choice for the future. That feeling made him always want to escape.
That kind of escape prevented him from truly feeling the charm of Chen Jingjing!
To put it simply, Chen Jingjing and Chen Wenwen both inherited the beauty of their mothers when they were young, which shows that Chen Jingjing is definitely not bad.
In addition, she has the personality of a science and engineering girl with relatively few expressions when she is working normally, but now she is full of all kinds of temptations with her passionate and fiery temptation.
Zhao Han finally couldn't help it and returned the kiss with a passionate kiss.
"You don't regret it!"
"I'm afraid you don't dare, brother Zhao Han."
"What can men not dare to do!"
Then, Zhao Han acted completely according to his heart, regardless of the consequences. Now he only knows that it is no longer up to her to decide when the "war" started by Chen Jingjing will stop.
There was a tumult.
After a while, everything returned to silence, as if nothing had happened.However, Zhao Han knew that he had lost...
I have lost the relationship I had with Chen Jingjing before.
Of course, Zhao Han doesn't regret it, not that much.Mainly, I started to think about how to avoid capsizing.
Chen Jingjing does what he wants, and so does Liu Mengcheng!
He wanted to have both.
Zhao Han reviewed this complex problem in his mind and began to constantly think of various plans for a smooth landing in the future and to achieve the ending he hoped for.
……
The next day.
When Chen Jingjing went to work, she was obviously in a much better mood than before, and even laughed occasionally.
"Jingjing, what's wrong with you? You actually laughed?" Zhang Tiantian couldn't help but was stunned, "I forgot that you still have a smile on your face."
"What? Isn't it normal to laugh?" Chen Jingjing asked, "I want "The Promise" I saw yesterday to be so bad that I was speechless, and the online movie reviews said that there are so many talented people."
"Indeed, you can still watch domestic non-special effects blockbusters. Some blockbusters that overemphasize special effects cannot be watched," Zhang Tiantian said, "I would like to report on some work progress!"
"Oh?" Chen Jingjing asked, "Has the cloud server research been successful?"
"It's not a complete success, but it has achieved some results in stages."
Zhang Tiantian said, “After I made a series of improvements to the virtualization of server hardware.
Now it can be achieved to a certain extent. Various hardware resources such as CPU, GPU, memory, hard disk, etc. of multiple servers are virtualized, gradually breaking away from the constraints of a single server. Through the Internet, the resources of different servers under the cloud service system can be scheduled. CPU resources, GPU computing, memory resources and hard disk resources are integrated through cloud services into a virtual server that is free from the constraints of physical hardware.
In the past, a shared server was a server that was virtualized into shared resources for multiple websites using software. The technology was relatively simple.
But now, the technical difficulty of virtualizing different servers and hardware into a cloud server through software and network is no longer what it was in the same era! "
"How is the stability?" Chen Jingjing asked.
"More than 100 servers tested can be stably virtualized."
Zhang Tiantian said, “The technology was developed by myself after I had a thorough understanding of various papers!
It’s hard to say what the upper limit of technology is, whether it can achieve the kind of cloud computing that Zhao Han mentioned and become the infrastructure of the Internet. It’s like running water pipes. If people need computing power and other resources, they can just turn on the faucet.
However, if this technology is stabilized, even if we use it ourselves, it will greatly save the management and operating costs of various servers. "
"Why not just buy a server? How to save costs?" Chen Jingjing doesn't understand this aspect as well as Zhang Tiantian because she has been studying this aspect.
"It will definitely save servers!"
Zhang Tiantian said, "I have virtualized my hardware resources. Do I care about the server manufacturer's complete set of software and hardware solutions and after-sales service?
Servers are more expensive than PCs. In addition to requirements such as greater stability, there are also a series of after-sales services for software and hardware.
Using a series of services and technologies provided by server manufacturers, people can earn some added value beyond selling hardware.
Domestic servers are cheaper than overseas servers, not because of the hardware procurement cost advantage, but because of the packaged after-sales service and software and hardware services.
Even so, it is still much more expensive than buying the hardware and assembling the server yourself!
I assemble the server myself without the need for after-sales service from brand manufacturers. I only need about [-] to [-]% of the original budget to buy the hardware and assemble the server myself.
Not to mention, if a larger scale purchase is made, it is not impossible to reduce it to [-]% of the original cost! "
"Well! This can save a lot of money!" Chen Jingjing couldn't help but nodded.
In 04, the company needed to purchase about 300 servers a year, with a budget of more than 300 million.
05 is not over yet, but this year the company's total server purchase volume exceeds 1 units. The company's server hardware purchase alone costs hundreds of millions of yuan a year.
The Internet continues to develop later, and the company's business is also developing rapidly.The annual server purchase volume will only increase year by year and will not decrease.
"Not only this, server hardware DIY is so simple. In the future, we can also customize it more independently."
Zhang Tiantian said, “For example, our cloud servers can virtualize computing resources. Not only can they use X86 architecture CPUs, but can I use MIPS architecture CPUs?
The compatibility of the MIPS architecture is not good. We can add some X86 computing resources and various compatibility can be solved.
Customers who use the server will see the effect regardless of the specific chip you use.
Therefore, we can fully control the pricing of computing power and storage hardware.
If some niche special-purpose chips can replace general-purpose chips to some extent, they will be more efficient and save money, and they can be developed by themselves.
It can be said that after polishing the cloud service technology, we have gradually become a company that owns the core technology and has the right to speak in technology.Instead, we are forced to apply whatever technology others provide! "
Chapter 481 Core Technologies
"Can our company really develop its own chips in the future?" Chen Jingjing couldn't help but ask.
Isn't it possible that chips are just a little bit more difficult than the Internet and software levels?
Software is an application ecological issue, which is equivalent to the application of mature technologies.What compiler to use, how to program, etc. are all open to the world.The latest programming technology cannot be kept secret, but will be made public as soon as possible to attract more people to use specialized programming languages and expand the ecosystem.
Hardware is not exactly the same. Some public technologies and knowledge on hardware are actually at least ten years behind the times.
It’s okay to lay the foundation. If you want to gain more in-depth knowledge, I’m sorry, but many relatively new technologies are internal business secrets of other companies. Even registered patents may not all be registered. Some are achieved by keeping knowledge and technology confidential. Obtain a monopoly position for a longer period of time.
Even if some of the hardware architecture is open source, you can spend money to buy technology licenses.
However, most open source hardware technologies have some pitfalls. For example, the MIPS architecture is open source. You can pay for a complete license and you can change it at will.However, after a bunch of companies have modified the MIPS architecture, it is equivalent to a bunch of mutually incompatible CPU architectures. Their respective ecosystems are fragmented, and the cost of adapting to MIPS is very high.Therefore, this type of architecture cannot create a large application ecosystem, and most of them are gradually declining.
The ARM architecture cannot modify the IP core randomly, it can only be modified within its framework.The dominance of each version of the technical route lies entirely with ARM.If you want to make major changes, you need to share your own developed technology with ARM officials, and ARM will adopt your technology and upgrade the technical level of the ARM system.Even if you make a huge contribution to the ARM architecture and submit a bunch of instruction sets to ARM officials and they are adopted, if the next generation of ARM is upgraded and they are not authorized to you, it is equivalent to kicking you out.
If it is aimed at the personal consumer market, the chip industry is actually full of pitfalls and minefields.
But the cloud service market may not be like this.As long as it meets business needs, customers don't care what software and hardware technology you use.
