Chapter 906

With the blessing of the three parties, the box office of "Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of justice" rebounded as high as 37% in the week of the award ceremony from March 22 to March 28. The box office of "Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of justice" once again returned to more than 10 million US dollars, reaching 11.49 million US dollars.

This is the 14th week of the film's release, with a total box office of $632.25 million.

March 29, Friday.

Easter in North America opens this week.

Denise entertainment will release two movies in the Easter season, including Kim Carey's new movie "detective plane 2" on March 29 and another new movie "morgue haunted event 2" on April 5.

The initial stalemate reluctantly resolved, and Kim Carey returned, launching a third film in collaboration with Denise entertainment.

Compared with the original time and space, this time, Kim Carrey was almost completely hidden by danielis entertainment, and he didn't dare to make any more fuss. After the previous two "detective plane head" and "disguised geek" sold well, the production cost of this "detective plane head 2" was still well controlled at $30 million by the new world film industry team, with 2652 screens.

In addition, there is also a paramount's first degree fear.

The production cost of this crime suspense film is also $30 million. It tells about a tortuous murder of the archbishop. The original version of the film is starred by Richard Kiel. Because of Simon's big butterfly, Richard Kiel, who went down all the way in the late 1980s, missed the chance to turn over from "pretty girl" and now he has gone to the streets completely. The film Party chose "Jurassic" this time Sam Neal, the hero of the park series.

However, the most brilliant part of the original film is actually Edward Norton's amazing performance.

Because it was paramount's project, Simon didn't deliberately interfere, and Edward Norton still got his own role. Maybe it should be that gold will shine sooner or later.

The film has 1983 screens.

By contrast, it is not difficult to see that other Hollywood studios are far behind Denise entertainment in terms of distribution power. Even for films of the same level, if the scale of the opening screen is hundreds of pieces lower, the starting point will be different, and the final box office can be imagined.

With the arrival of Easter, Batman vs Superman: Dawn of justice, which has just returned from the Oscars, is still quite popular.

And it's another opportunity for advancement.

According to the current box office trend, the publicity teams of the two companies predict that the cumulative box office of super baton is expected to reach $650 million after the end of the two-week Easter season. With the total domestic box office breaking through 650 million US dollars, it will be quite easy for the film to recover another 50 million US dollars with the long-term screening enough to support the summer season.

However, on March 29, the most popular news was the new annual new product launch of tincobail at 2 pm that day.

Tincobail's new product launch this year will be held in the conference center, which has just opened in igritte Park of mountain view city.

Simon arrived in San Francisco in the morning and showed great concern for the press conference, but he didn't spend any more time to attend.

This did not affect the unprecedented grand occasion of dincobal's new product launch in 1996.

Compared with previous years, with the continuous enrichment of the product line, the biggest difference of this year's new product launch of tincobail is that it lasted for three hours, from two o'clock in the afternoon to five o'clock in the afternoon. The technology media, financial media and other guests from all over the world did not feel long or boring.

The three hour conference started one and a half hours with the regular upgrade of ICAM series, iPlayer series and other products. Although there was no breakthrough, it was still remarkable.

The next hour and a half is the beginning.

Tincobail has been preparing for more than two years for the official launch of its digital camera products.

iRec-10。

Or, more accurately, a complete set of software and hardware products and services around irec-10 digital camera.

The first is irec-10.

This digital camera directly hit the highest video definition standard of 360p, which is the biggest selling point of irec-10. You know, in this era, the definition of traditional domestic film cameras converted into digital signals is only about 240p, which is also the common definition standard of TV programs at this stage.

In Simon's view, the 480 * 360 definition format is still poor, but in today's era, this leap is tantamount to throwing away the traditional household film camera.

This is also the main reason why the IREC series was delayed for a time.

The video definition of the prototype Simon saw the year before last is only 240p.

In fact, dinkbaier's team has considered to launch the 240p standard digital camera, which is the same as the traditional household film camera, and then slowly upgrade it. However, by doing so, the first IREC product will inevitably lack some amazing selling points that can directly impact the market.The final choice is to sell 360p standard directly. Of course, users can also adjust the shooting definition to 240p or even lower to get longer shooting time.

Upgrading 240p to 360p is definitely not just a simple hardware upgrade, but a whole set of system engineering. In order to ensure the best video picture effect and the optimal video compression ratio, and also considering the cost factors, hundreds of software and hardware engineers have been busy for more than a year before they can produce the final products that can be put into the market.

In addition to the highest definition standard of 360p, irec-10 also provides 1g of micro hard disk storage space. Recording according to 360p video standard, irec-10 can store 250 minutes of video, equivalent to more than four hours.

In addition, unlike ICAM and iPlayer, this IREC can also replace the micro hard disk module when the storage space is exhausted. Tincobail also released the standard IREC peripheral replaceable micro hard disk accessories with 1g and 2G capacity, which is mainly to meet the needs of users for long-time shooting such as traveling.

In fact, for ordinary home users, 250 minutes is basically enough, because this is actually a PC peripheral. Once the capacity is used up, you just need to import it into the PC.

With the popularity of CD-ROM drive, even if the capacity of computer film is limited, users can burn video to CD for permanent storage.

As for the pricing that everyone is most concerned about, the irec-10 series is also beyond many people's expectations.

Before that, with the constant release of the news, it was expected that tincobail would release a digital camera product this time. The media generally predicted that the price of irec-10 would reach about $1000.

The c-girl who introduced this product on stage in person revealed the mystery under everyone's eyes.

799 dollars!

That's $300 more than ICAM and iPlayer, but it's still lower than almost everyone expected.

You know, in recent years, other electronic manufacturers have been selling digital cameras, even for ordinary consumers, the price is rarely less than $3000, and the price of a slightly more professional digital camera is directly more than $10000.

Irec-10's $799 price is a bloody blow to dimensionality reduction.

The pricing was also determined after repeated deliberation and even internal disputes.

The hardware cost of irec-10 has reached US $600, the price is US $799, and the gross profit rate is only 25%. This gross profit level is actually quite low in the field of electronic products. For example, the gross profit margin of the previous generation icam-50 and iplayer-10 reached 57% and 49% respectively.

Therefore, the industry's initial forecast price of about $1000 is actually the tendency of many people in tincobail.

However, in recent years, the lowest price of personal computers in the North American market has been in the range of hundreds of dollars. If irec-10 is priced at US $999, reaching the level of 1000 yuan, it may still be far inferior to the digital camera products of Sony, Panasonic, Kodak and other manufacturers, which often cost tens of thousands of dollars. However, as a consumer digital camera for the public, such pricing is obvious It's a bit high.

In my memory, I can always see the media's comparison about how long the average wage of different countries can buy Apple phones, and then make a simple judgment. Americans can buy several phones a month, while Chinese can only buy one for several months.

This is not the case.

It is mainly the difference of life style and consumption concept.

For example, if an American earns $3000 a month, first of all, personal income tax, then, insurance, pension, then, rent, water, electricity, telecommunications, then, basic necessities of life, and then, basically, there is no such thing.

So the ordinary American can't get the $400 in cash. Simon doesn't know where it comes from and why it's $400 instead of $500 or $1000. But it's true that the ordinary American can't get much cash.

That's why the U.S. government had to pay residents directly when the epidemic broke out.

If there is no salary and no direct payment, even the basic necessities can not be paid, and the whole family may have to starve.

Once you are hungry, you can do anything.

Therefore, the average American wants to buy a $1000 electronic product. In fact, just like the Chinese, they need to make a careful calculation. Many people may have to borrow money in installments.

All in all, 799 dollars and 999 dollars are absolutely two concepts.

The final sales difference is also in the millions.

Moreover, this pricing is more about the layout of the whole westrow system in the field of new science and technology.

In the final analysis, all of tincobail's products are attached to the entire Internet Ecology, and all parties interact and promote each other. IREC series digital cameras are an important part of Simon's planning.

Even if the hardware itself makes less money, as long as the product is successful, it will promote the development of the entire Internet Ecology.In addition to the core irec-10, the second half of the one and a half-hour press conference mainly focused on the ecology of this product.

After irec-10, the first is icut video editing software.

This is the IREC series supporting software product launched by tincobail company. It is mainly used for the post production of IREC video, providing functions such as video editing, subtitle editing, adding BGM, etc.

Although the powerful function of ygritte's professional video software ygritte VideoStudio is incomparable, and it can't produce all kinds of video special effects, as a free software, icut is enough to meet the needs of ordinary users.

Of course, professional users naturally pay to switch to ygritte video studio.

And then, the video editing material library on the broadcast platform will provide users with a large amount of background music or sound effect materials for video editing free of charge.

In the western society, which attaches great importance to copyright protection, broadcast not only provides convenience for users, but also avoids a lot of unnecessary legal proceedings.

Finally, Geoff Bezos of igritte took the stage to announce the official revision of igritte's YouTube video platform, which is open to all users.

Starting from 5 p.m. on March 29, the new online YouTube website is no longer limited to officially authorized content users. Any user can upload videos created by themselves.

Limited to the current network conditions, ordinary users can only have 500m content space. According to the 360p video standard of irec-10, they can upload videos for about two hours, and the duration of a single video is limited to less than 10 minutes.

Although there are upload restrictions, the service will be completely free.

Moreover, the 500m content space is not unchangeable, as long as the user's created video clicks reach a certain level, the user level will be improved, and the content space will also be improved.

This is mainly to encourage users to create more quality content.

Restrictions are not without exception. Social celebrities with certain influence can directly apply for VIP certification, which is still free of charge. However, as long as the successful addition of V, these celebrities will not be subject to upload space, including video duration, and the new version of YouTube will not make any restrictions.

It's easy for users to find the loopholes.

If the space of an account runs out and the account is not upgraded, I will apply for another account.

Of course, no problem.

However, it's like playing a game. If you are willing to give up a level 70 account and go to the novice village again, no one will object from level 1. It's just that the time and energy spent on your level 70 account will be invalid, which is not worth the loss.

In fact, the upgrade standard set by the YouTube platform is not harsh. As long as you work hard, you will soon get the same permissions as celebrity users. The main reason is that the network storage and bandwidth resources are not abundant at this stage. Therefore, we hope that users can actively create better videos and avoid flooding to the greatest extent.

Again, the heaviest point.

The YouTube platform will be open to all content creators.

There is no threshold, no special application, as long as the original video, the official will default to open advertising.

Moreover, the new version of YouTube platform will also open the sponsorship function. If users like a video blogger very much, they can directly provide cash sponsorship. The official only deducts 30% of tax expenses, channel expenses and other expenses, and the remaining 70% belongs to users.

Although the YouTube platform has not opened the upload function for individual users before, the advertising sharing mode has been opened.

Jeff Bezos gave a clear formula to calculate the revenue on the spot at the press conference. The average revenue per thousand clicks is between us $0.6 and US $1.8.

In order to give users the most intuitive feeling, Bezos also directly posted the revenue bills of some content providers, including the advertising revenue of his boss's three Guinness record singles "young and beautiful", "Blizard" and "Bach's last day" last year.

Among them, only young and beautiful, with a total of 1.37 billion hits, has achieved an advertising revenue of US $2.469 million.

For Simon, more than two million dollars is not money at all.

However, for most ordinary people, if they can complete such a phenomenal video, they can directly start to retire and enjoy life.

1.37 billion hits seems to be out of reach for many people, but on the other hand, even if the revenue of all your videos in one year is only one tenth of that of one song "young and beautiful", the annual revenue is already quite high.

Therefore, in the face of Jeff Bezos's provocative explanation, even many invited celebrities and guests are eager to try.These people are very clear about the advantages that Bezos doesn't seem to emphasize, and what kind of authentication plus V can actually bring them. There is no need to think about it. The official will definitely provide more rich recommendation resources for these accounts.

Tens of millions of people watching the conference through live video are ready to move, and countless people have begun to eagerly look forward to the official sale of irec-10.
