July 29th, Monday …
Tengda Corporation's President's Office …
The air conditioner was turned on very high. Pei Qian was wrapped in a small blanket to check the work of various departments and the reputation and evaluation of some new industries online.
At this moment, Pei Qian's mood was like his body temperature.
Although the sun was shining brightly outside and the sky was clear, Pei Qian inexplicably exuded a chill.
It was a little difficult!
This month could be said to be one bad news after another. At first, Otto Technologies' new cell phone and game router were a huge success, followed by the haunted house's Traveler in a Foreign Land project and Leng Nuan Animal Paradise.
At first, Pei Qian felt that the game router could be a huge success, which was already a very difficult thing to understand. However, it now seemed that this was just the beginning.
So far, the folding screen cell phone was still in a state of shortage, and many cell phone cases had been sold.
Pei Qian did not have a very good solution to the problem of the shortage. He could only talk to Shenhua Corporation to continue to increase production and then take some measures to curb scalpers.
The game router was also increasing production capacity, but the situation was much better than the cell phone.
The most unacceptable thing to Pei Qian was that the Traveler in a Foreign Land project and Leng Nuan Animal Paradise had also become popular!
The Traveler in a Foreign Land project seemed similar to other haunted house projects in Pei Qian's opinion. They were all done with malice, but it was inexplicably popular.
Why were there so many people rushing to experience such a scary place? It did not make sense at all!
Leng Nuan Animal Paradise was even more ridiculous. There were obviously no rare animals here, and there was nothing particularly commendable, but the tourists were especially attracted and came in an endless stream.
Pei Qian heard that the employees inside were very talented, and every live show was like a special crosstalk or concert.
At first, he did not believe it. He went online to search for the video and found it to be true.
This was very ridiculous! That was because Pei Qian did not ask about the selection of employees. He did not know where these employees were found by Tan Xinzhang. Even if Leng Nuan knew that Animal Paradise's salary was higher and the employees recruited basically had some bonus points, it should not be so popular, right?
It could only be said that it was difficult to understand!
Moreover, the two new projects, the Traveler in a Foreign Land project and Leng Nuan Animal Paradise, should be finished in the current state.
The only thing that comforted Pei Qian was that these two projects were infrastructure projects that required huge investments. Based on the current flow of people, it would take a long time to recover even if they continued to be popular.
Of course, if these two projects were to be considered as the driving force of the other projects in Thriller Hostel and the entire business district, then there would be no way to talk about it.
Pei Qian could only deceive himself and ignore this part of the profits.
The past was the past. Pei Qian decided to take a look at the situation for the next two months.
There were relatively few things in August. There were only two things in total. The first was that the VR game developed by Tengda's clothing brand, which was also the luxury clothing brand and Slow Movement Workspace, was about to be officially released.
The second thing was that the movie "The Future You Choose" had been filmed and was currently undergoing editing and post-production work. The Venice Film Festival would be held at the end of August and the beginning of September, and Zhu Xiaoce had already confirmed that he would be attending.
Tomorrow is Beautiful had only won the Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival previously, which was the second place. It had always been a regret for the crew that they did not win the Palme d 'Or.
After such a long period of training, Director Zhu Xiaoce, the lead actor, Lu Zhiyao, and the other crew members had all improved greatly.
The theme of "The Future You Choose" this time was similar to Tomorrow is Beautiful, but some of the plot details were even better. Thus, Director Zhu Xiaoce hoped to use this movie to charge for the highest award at the Venice Film Festival, the Golden Lion for Best Film.
Pei Qian had always been more supportive of this. He had maximized the financial support.
Although winning the Golden Lion would definitely cause the movie to become popular in the country, Pei Qian did not think that participating in the Venice Film Festival was important.
On one hand, the judges of the three international film festivals were all foreigners. They naturally lacked cultural recognition for the movies made by Tengda. It was already a little surprising that Tomorrow is Beautiful could win an award. Many of the intentions of the movie "The Future You Choose" were obvious. It was simpler and more straightforward than Tomorrow is Beautiful. Foreigners might not like it.
His chances of winning the Golden Lion this time were slim. At most, he would win the Best Actor Award. He might not even win the Silver Lion, the jury's prize.
On the other hand, even if the film won an award at the Venice Film Festival, it wouldn't have much of an impact on the domestic and global box office.
Although there were some movies that won the Golden Lion that exploded at the box office, those were usually very successful commercial movies. Most of the award-winning movies were completely flopped at the global box office.
To Pei Qian, winning an award was the long-cherished wish of Zhu Xiaoce and all the members of Fei Huang Workspace. The chances of success might not be high, but it was worth encouraging.
Give them more funds and let them have a good time and enjoy themselves in Europe.
At this stage, Pei Qian was still focusing more on luxury clothing.
After some thought, Pei Qian felt a little worried. Thus, he decided to make a trip to Slow Movement Workspace to see what this VR game looked like.
…
"Boss Pei, this way please."
Cai Jiadong was already waiting at the entrance of the company. After receiving Pei Qian, he led him directly to the experience area of Slow Movement Workspace.
Then, he began to enthusiastically introduce the new game to Pei Qian.
VR glasses equipment.
Pei Qian could not help but be stunned. "New VR glasses equipment? It's already been made? "
Cai Jiadong nodded. "That's right, Boss Pei. Our workspace isn't just developing games. We're also updating the VR glasses equipment. However, the VR glasses this time did not undergo any major changes. The overall design is still the same. Thus, we did not discuss it with great fanfare. "
"The overall design is still the same as before, but some small details have been changed."
"The main thing is that there has been a certain increase in performance and resolution. After all, hardware technology is developing very quickly now. It can be said to be changing with each passing day. Cell phones and computers are being updated very quickly. Of course, VR glasses cannot fall behind."
Pei Qian was silent.
He had a very bad feeling about this.
The update of the hardware definitely meant that some parameters had been improved.
Actually, the old Doubt.
The VR glasses were already very good in terms of parameters and could completely beat most of the VR glasses on the market at present. To most players, there was still a certain grating effect and it looked like large particles, but it was already very high-definition compared to other VR glasses.
Moreover, the hardware had been updated this time. Didn't that mean that the resolution would be further improved?
That was because Slow Movement Workspace's VR glasses could be said to be the most popular, so the chances of success were very high. There were not many competitive opponents in the market.
This undoubtedly laid a good foundation for Slow Movement Workspace's new game. It reduced the chances of Pei Qian incurring losses.
Pei Qian said helplessly, "Let me take a look at this new pair of glasses first."
Pei Qian took it from Cai Jiadong and looked at it carefully.
He realized that the overall design of this pair of glasses was similar to the previous version: the iconic crescent-shaped forehead protector and flat hexagonal shape. The protrusion with the logo of Slow Movement Workspace was retained. There was not much change in the overall appearance.
However, many edges and corners were in different colors. The overall design looked more fashionable and cool. One could also tell the difference between the new and old models at a glance.
As for the controller, there was not much change. It was completely the same as the old controller.
Cai Jiadong explained, "We intend to name this VR glasses PRO.
In other words, it's a high-end version. "
"Actually, compared to the old model, the configuration is mainly in terms of resolution. This time, we arranged for an 8K screen with more than 800 PPI. The refresh rate has also been increased to 144Hz. We used new battery technology. The size of the battery has been reduced, but the capacity has been slightly increased. However, considering the increase in other hardware configurations, we can still only play for two hours. "
"The glasses use the latest cell phone chip, but it's obviously impossible to rely on a cell phone chip to bring up such a resolution. Thus, most games will be run in the all-in-one mode."
"If you want to make full use of this screen, you'll need at least a high-end desktop that costs more than 10,000 yuan. However, this shouldn't be a big problem for true VR game enthusiasts. "
"The price is a little more expensive than the old model. It's priced at 6,499 yuan, less than 2,000 yuan more than before."
"This price increase might be a little high, but it's the result of piling up materials after all. What's more, customers who can spend more than 10,000 yuan on high-end desktops should not mind spending 6,000 yuan on VR glasses for the ultimate gaming experience."
"Of course, we will also adjust the previous game slightly and add a high-end version to the new glasses."
Pei Qian could not help but feel emotional. The development of technology was really changing with each passing day. It was amazing.
What's more, according to Cai Jiadong, this technology did not just appear in the past two days. It had existed for a long time. However, most VR glasses manufacturers could not go up because they could not afford such a high premium.
How many copies of a VR glasses that cost more than 6,000 yuan would have to be sold to break even? If the production could not reach the target, they would not be able to get a preferential price from the supplier. If they could not suppress the cost, they would naturally not be able to sell it.
However, Doubt …
VR glasses were selling quite well now. Be it individual users or corporate users like Starbird Interactive Entertainment Experience Museum and Fish-Catching Internet Cafe, they would buy them in large numbers.
Such a huge user base allowed Slow Movement Workspace to boldly pile up materials on the glasses without worrying about being unable to sell them.
Pei Qian silently put on this new VR glasses. He also wanted to see what kind of effect it would have after forcefully piling up materials on the VR glasses to a super high-definition resolution.
