The negotiations for the distribution of a movie were usually completed halfway through the filming.
When Pan Dong and Ignatius signed the movie distribution contract, not to mention the virtual world of holographic glasses, even the first generation of magic crystal phones had just come out.
Even the most far-sighted boss could not predict the future in a contract.
Contracts were strictly prohibited and serious, especially contracts that involved copyright distribution issues.
For example, a publishing company signed a publishing contract with a writer. The contract stipulated that the copyright of the book in simplified Chinese belonged to the publisher. The writer could not sell the copyright to other publishers and could not repost the content on the Internet to harm the interests of the publisher.
What if the writer sold the English version of the work to another publisher?
Naturally, there was no problem.
Because no country dared to stipulate that the word 'copyright' represented all the copyrights.
Even if a movie was adapted into a game, it would be divided into mobile games, client-side games, and web-based games.
Not to mention the most important film and television distribution rights.
…
There were still three days before the release of "Floating City: Rise".
The Internet was boiling with complaints at the same time.
Unlike Qingyu Media's urban comedy movie, the movie produced by the well-known director Ignatius was the most authentic Hollywood blockbuster.
Qingyu Media's movie was like a village stage troupe compared to the Bird's Nest Stadium.
After being released worldwide for several months, the movie had already earned 1.2 billion USD in box office and its reputation was through the roof.
If it were not for the delay of the release of Hua Xia, the movie "Floating City: Rise" would have sat firmly in the top 50 of the global movie box office rankings.
This was an IMAX movie. Hua Xia's movie lovers who had been waiting for a long time had even flipped through the free pirated versions circulating on the Internet. However, they could not even find a version where they could see the actors' expressions clearly. They only saw a double blurred version that made them dizzy after a few minutes.
Now, they finally heard the news of the release.
But the problem was that they did not have holographic glasses.
It was not that they did not want to buy them, but the problem now was that all major websites had posted a sign saying that they were temporarily out of stock. Even users who had ordered in advance had to look at the estimated delivery date of ten to twenty days.
Wasn't this asking for trouble?
The holographic glasses section of Monster Industries' official website had been filled with smoke since the afternoon. Two groups of netizens were like fire and water.
One group was the netizens who had holographic glasses, and the other group was naturally the netizens who wanted to watch movies and experience the charm of the virtual world and holographic glasses technology, but had no way to do so.
"Tsk tsk ~ I've already bought the tickets for Drifting City: Rise. I'm planning to watch it on the boat in the Galaxy Hall. What about you guys?"
"I'm going to watch it with my girlfriend."
"I bought two tickets. I'm going to show some mercy and invite my friend to watch the show."
"Upstairs, are you guys done showing off? If you have the guts, tell me your address. See if I don't beat you up."
"Line up and register. Count me in."
"Ouch, the two above are laughing so hard that my holographic glasses fell off."
"The address is' Big Villa No. 66 of the Steel Straight Men Tribe 'in Sunny Beach. Come and beat me up."
"I'm waxing my Primordial Spirit Set. How boring."
"The coordinates are the sea. I really want to go to the legendary Galaxy Hall to watch a movie. Which little brother can invite me? I can recite 'Early Bai Di Cheng'."
If owning holographic glasses was an original sin, then these people who showed off on the forum were already unforgivable.
If it wasn't for another post on the forum that attracted everyone's attention, the netizens who were so angry that they were almost smoking would have even discussed the establishment of the [Demand for Goods Alliance]. They were ready to call on netizens in cities not too far away from Monster Industries to protest together under the Monster Industries Building.
They protested until they moved the holographic glasses from the warehouse on the spot and sold them to them.
The post that broke the tit-for-tat atmosphere between the two was called [What the hell, my holographic glasses have been shipped?]
The poster said that he had grabbed a holographic glasses more than ten days ago. Originally, the backend showed that the estimated shipping time was still seventeen days away. Now he received a text message saying that the holographic glasses he ordered had been shipped out of the warehouse and were preparing to be shipped to the city where he was located.
The shortage of holographic glasses could be seen from the cries and complaints on the forum.
Therefore, the user's first reaction was not surprise. He thought that there was a mistake in the backend or the warehouse information entry.
After receiving a shipping notice, there was no movement in the logistics information for ten days to half a month. Almost all the frequent online users had encountered this. When they asked the customer service, nine out of ten times, it was a warehouse information entry error.
Not only did the poster not believe it, but the netizens who saw the post also did not believe it.
Until they opened their shopping software out of curiosity.
"Is it true? I'm going to check my shopping information."
"Crazy, crazy, I even got the goods."
"I'm dreaming, I have the logistics transportation information here."
"Brothers, look at the official website, you can buy it now. The purchase option for holographic glasses has changed from gray to red!"
Ten minutes later, the forum was swept by the autumn wind, and it was cold and bleak.
The number of active users suddenly dropped by 99%. Almost everyone was dazzled by the bright red words [Buy Now].
The holographic glasses cost 6,800 yuan.
Trembling, they immediately paid and entered the appearance color column of the glasses. Many people didn't even dare to think about which color they liked. They just randomly selected black or white and instantly clicked on the confirmation below.
Order confirmed.
"Confirm, confirm, confirm."
Payment?
Account balance is insufficient?
Ah ~ don't panic, credit card, credit card.
Deduction failed, credit card balance is insufficient?
Calm down, calm down, I remember, I still have a loan of gold bar to save my life.
Five minutes later, the official website of the Monster Industries flagship store on several shopping websites was all stuck. Users couldn't even open the purchase page of holographic glasses, let alone choose a color.
They refreshed again and again, tried to turn off the wireless network, turn on 4G, or go straight to the computer.
Ten minutes later, the major shopping websites automatically activated server distribution and allocated more server resources to the Monster Industries flagship store.
Even if each step took more than ten seconds, no one dared to look away and complain.
They were like a flood that opened the gate, sweeping through all the network flagship stores.
No, their wallets were like a flood that opened the gate.
In less than an hour, more than seven million holographic glasses that were reopened to netizens to purchase were pre-ordered.
By midnight, the pre-order number of holographic glasses reached 30 million, and the shipment time was once again scheduled to be one month later.
The whole world was shocked.
If it was said that the 213.5 billion figure created by the Huaxia Double Eleven Shopping Festival not long ago had frightened the entire global Internet industry, it would have been more than enough.
Within half a day, the Monster Industry created a trading volume with its own strength and holographic glasses as a product.
It would make the global Internet and global electronic technology companies feel complete despair.
258 billion!
If you had to add a [Quantity] to the entire despair.
Their answer would be the weight of a neutron star.
Because the holographic glasses alone completely beat the sales volume created by Double 11.
