These words were full of arrogance, but everyone showed a subtle expression of doubt.
Of course, these words couldn't be taken seriously.
Once upon a time, video platforms such as Qiqi, Tencent, and Youku also vowed before the cooperation that their video coding technology was impeccable.
But what was the result?
These video platforms had the most pirated chains. They were like roadside wildflowers, ready for anyone to pick.
Of course, no one questioned it. This kind of technical debate would have no result at all.
After the video resources were released, those pirates who only did things and didn't speak would have actual actions to prove it.
Wei Zhixiang, the head of Na Mei Pictures, wouldn't discuss this issue endlessly. He raised a second concern.
Could holographic glasses be popularized?
Any new disruptive electronic product was often not a hit at the beginning of the market, but a series of stumbling problems. It always took one or two generations for the technology to be mature.
As the saying went, a genius was half a step ahead, and a lunatic was one step ahead.
This could be perfectly reflected in the film industry.
Some directors had advanced thinking and produced movies that shocked the industry.
As a result, they confidently released them to theaters, but they were scolded worse than dog poop by the audience. The director was so angry that he couldn't wait to beat drums on the street.
The holographic glasses were more than a step ahead, they were more like a street ahead.
Then, after the holographic glasses were released, would the results be like Google Glass, stunning the world from the beginning, and quickly becoming unheard of because of the lack of software content to attract the audience?
If not, why was this big boss so eager to take away their film and television copyrights to fill in?
Tencent video platform, the number of active users last quarter exceeded 40 million, and Qiqi exceeded 50 million.
The number of active users in Hua Xia exceeded 100 million, and almost all of these people had paid for membership.
How many users could the holographic glasses achieve?
In the eyes of these big bosses, the price of the holographic glasses would definitely exceed 10,000 yuan. Without the support of rich software content, the number of users could easily be estimated based on the number of users of similar electronic products in the past.
"Everyone, have you seen Monster Industries launch a product that no one cared about?" Ye Qing looked at everyone with questioning eyes. "In my impression, the products of the Monster Industry only have production capacity problems, and there are no sales problems."
"Mr. Ye, I think there should be something in common with the launch of a new movie in the film industry."
"None of us can guarantee that the next movie will be a hit." Wei Zhixiang, the head of Na Mei Pictures, sighed. "Mr. Ye, why are you in such a hurry to transfer the film and television copyrights to the 'virtual reality' world?"
"We can wait a year and see the sales of the holographic glasses."
"At that time, if the holographic glasses become popular among users, you will have more initiative …"
"I don't want to wait a year." Ye Qing interrupted, "The holographic glasses and the virtual reality world are our company's next strategic development focus."
"I want this product to sweep the entire world's electronic internet with a thunderous momentum."
"This is the next generation of Internet standards. Since we're setting the standards, of course we have to include everything about the Internet."
"Film and television is the most important entertainment on the Internet. Your participation will set a benchmark for the foreign film and television industry."
"When the time comes, if other countries want to introduce our virtual world, they must implement according to Hua Xia's standards."
"…"
Wei Zhixiang, the head of Na Mei Pictures, was stunned.
Xinli World, Glory Film and Television, Mango TV, and all the big shots present, as well as the new stars they brought, were also stunned.
If it weren't for Ye Qing's special identity, Wei Zhixiang, the head of Na Mei Pictures, would have taken a sip of tea first before spitting it out with force.
It was like a dragonfly shaking a stone pillar. What a wonderful dream.
Setting the next generation of Internet access standards for the world to use Hua Xia's rules as a reference?
What a joke. Did Monster Industries have to force Hollywood to release their world-dominating blockbusters into the virtual reality world at the same time when the holographic glasses were released in the United States?
If he was the President of the United States, it was possible.
Wei Zhixiang, who was used to seeing all kinds of scenes, held back his laughter. However, the boss of New Dream Studios, a second-tier company in the circle, couldn't hold back his laughter.
He laughed and coughed repeatedly. "Mr. Ye, your plan is great. I think it won't take a year or two before we can sit comfortably at home and watch Hollywood blockbusters. We won't have to squeeze into the cinema anymore. "
As soon as he said this, a few new stars couldn't help but giggle. It wasn't until they were sternly stared by their boss that they struggled to stop.
They were a little worried, afraid that the young president would be angry.
"Is it funny?" Ye Qing didn't show an angry expression.
"It's really funny."
"I think the atmosphere is good. Then I'll tell you two small jokes." Ye Qing also laughed softly and said in a reminiscing tone, "Two years ago, I was invited to attend a business conference in the United States."
"That conference was similar to this one. Some seniors in the industry got together to communicate with each other."
"Then someone invited me to his office and suggested that I move part of Monster Industries to the United States. This would be beneficial for the export of Monster Industries' products."
"That person's tone was a little inexplicably confident. After I rejected him, he said a lot of things."
"Later, he probably felt that it wasn't enough to say it himself, so he sent his assistant over. After his assistant found me, he said, "Mister Ye, you rejected our boss. Our boss is very angry. Your products shouldn't be sold to the United States in the future."
"We've also talked to Europe. Isn't your next product going to be a mobile phone? You don't have to make the European version."
Ye Qing said casually, "I said that's fine. Since that's the case, Hua Xia is the world's largest market for Apple's mobile phones. Then Apple's mobile phone market in Hua Xia is no longer needed. In half a year, I guarantee that Apple's global mobile phone shipments will drop by half. "
"Isn't this joke funny?"
Everyone's expression was a little cautious. They subconsciously thought that this was a joke.
Which boss in the United States would dare to brag about monopolizing the entire United States, or even the European market, and refuse Monster Industries' entry?
Ye Qing continued, "The ending of this joke is that in half a year, Apple's global mobile phone shipments will drop by 64%."
"In Hua Xia, their sales plummeted by 92%."
All the big shots in the room suddenly couldn't laugh. They had a feeling that their hair was standing on end …
"The second joke is related to flying in the sky."
Ye Qing raised his sword-like eyebrows. "At the beginning of this year, our company might have felt that building cars was not a challenge, so we turned our eyes to planes flying in the sky."
"Then, the assistant made a bunch of comments, saying that if you were so stubborn, I would ask the United States and European aviation authorities not to issue airworthiness certificates for your kind of planes. Not a single one of your planes would be able to leave Hua Xia."
"I said, then I'll just shut the door and play by myself. Hua Xia is big enough for us to play for a while."
"In the end, for the two companies, Airbus and Boeing, other than the orders for intercontinental flights, more than 80% of the remaining orders for short-haul and medium-haul planes were rejected."
"The remaining 20% were semi-finished products that were already on the production line and could be delivered within a quarter. If these orders were to be refunded, they would have to pay half of the total value of the liquidated damages. Those airlines really couldn't refund them. "
"This wave of refunds is global. Even the airlines in the United States and Europe are retreating."
"Because Hua Xia is selling short-haul and medium-haul planes at a discount. The price is so cheap that it makes them feel like they've won the lottery."
After the two jokes were finished, Ye Qing looked at the boss of the [New Dream Studio] who had just mocked the Monster Industry and dreamed of bringing Hollywood into the rules.
Ye Qing asked slowly, "Boss, may I ask, what was the total global box office last year? How much did Hollywood take? "
"Four … forty billion." The boss of New Dream Set blushed and stammered as he raised four fingers. In the end, he emphasized twice that it was forty billion US dollars.
Of this, Hollywood alone accounted for twenty-nine billion US dollars.
In his eyes, forty billion US dollars was already a terrifying astronomical figure.
Of this forty billion US dollars, one-thousandth of it was contributed by his company.
"Global box office, forty billion US dollars, Hollywood 28 billion US dollars?" Ye Qing nodded. "I remember that Apple's turnover in 2016 was 210 billion US dollars."
"That's right, it's 210 billion US dollars." Ye Qing mimicked him and smiled as he emphasized the word 'US dollars'.
"Then in 2017, their turnover dropped by three figures of the global box office."
"Apple's CEO has said more than once in public that it's all Monster Industries's fault."
"Don't you think it's funny? They don't blame the consumers, but blame Monster Industries."
The boss of New Dream Set turned from red to white. He was scared silly.
There was a newly minted actress who claimed to have shaken hands with Ye Qing at the entrance, and told him her name as a friend. She timidly asked: "Mr. … Mr. Ye, the American boss you're talking about, who … … is he?"
Even this group of big shots was not sure who the American boss Ye Qing was talking about was. In the eyes of this new actress, Ye Qing's joke just now made her feel like she was listening to a book from heaven.
But looking at the expressions of those big shots, it seemed that this young CEO was not joking.
Boeing, Apple, and Airbus must have really suffered a big loss from Monster Industries.
Ye Qing waved his hand. "People on the Internet like to call him Super Clueless."
"…"
This actress was so scared that she didn't dare to speak.
If it were a different group of people in the hall, such as those in the electronic technology circle, they wouldn't laugh.
Instead, they would nod in agreement and think that this was how it should be.
Those in the electronic technology circle didn't need to look at the introduction manual of the holographic glasses.
Because Monster Industries had already established more than one set of standards.
The strong ionization sewage treatment system was the technical standard for the next generation of sewage treatment.
The magic crystal mobile phone was the goal that various mobile phone manufacturers rushed to catch up with.
The Thunderbolt car was the best model for the next generation of alternative energy vehicles.
The Banshee aircraft was the invincible overlord of the future civil aviation industry.
There was also the Primordial Spirit Hand. As soon as the Primordial Spirit Hand came out, foreign prosthetic research and development companies had already expressed that they wanted to change their business.
All foreign universities and laboratories had cut off all similar research and development projects and turned to the power model of the Primordial Spirit Hand.
It was difficult to intuitively feel the horror of Monster Industries without being in this industry.
This group of big shots in the film and television circle would not know that a few months ago, Ye Qing only said that he wanted to introduce the next generation of wearable display technology. The White House and the Department of Commerce in the United States were facing a great enemy. They summoned the top engineers in the United States and held more than one meeting.
"Ye … Mr. Ye." Wei Zhixiang, the helmsman of Na Mei Pictures, stumbled and touched Ye Qing's sleeve. He was at a loss and said with a dry smile: "Can … can you let us wait one … one year?"
"Half a year … Okay, didn't you say that the holographic glasses will be … on the market soon?"
"Give us half a year to observe the market. If the holographic glasses are really popular, we promise that we will not hesitate to move the copyright of the new movie to the virtual world at the same time."
Ye Qing knocked on the chicken wing wood tea table next to the microphone.
