After a day off, Zhong Yue came to the special effects company under the guidance of the translator Li Rong.:.../

Before coming, he checked some information. Although the film production is now popular, the more special effects are. The bigger the production, the more special effects are, the more they are inseparable from it.

Logically speaking, under such strong demand, the special effects industry should live a very comfortable life, but the reality is completely opposite. Several famous special effects companies have gone bankrupt one after another, such as D2 that produces movies such as "2012" and "Transformers 3", and R&H that produces "Pi".

Now he has never heard of the special effects company that Zhong Yue visited. However, according to Li Rong, it was founded by a group of original D2 employees and is very strong. Last year, he just participated in a relatively large production and gained some fame in the industry.

Zhong Yue first met with the director. The director's surname was Zhang, who was in his forties and was a well-known director in China. A movie he filmed last year won a very high box office.

Director Zhang didn't talk much, and he didn't politely say to him, saying, "I will introduce to them later that you are the deputy director of the crew. After you go there, don't talk nonsense or walk around."

His attitude is not friendly, and it is not difficult to understand. The investor asked him to take someone to visit the special effects company for no reason, which was purely causing him trouble, and it was normal for him to feel unhappy.

When Zhong Yue was in an advertising company, he listened to many unreasonable requests from customers. Most of the requests were obviously not within the scope of his responsibilities, but you had to do it.

So, he was not angry about Director Zhang's attitude and said very airily, "Please trouble Director Zhang."

In this way, Zhong Yue spent a day in the special effects company as the deputy director of the crew, and he saw what the production of Hollywood special effects was like.

Hollywood's special effects industry is even more complex than he imagined. It is definitely not just computer special effects. During the shooting process, many props and models will be used according to different scenes. Those props and models have very high standards. Like some animal models, they are really wonderful and naive. If they didn't know the fake one in advance, it would be really hard to see.

This kind of animal model activity relies on exquisite mechanical devices. Through this device, the props can control the model and make the model come alive. However, such devices generally do not have many actions. They can only be used in characters with few scenes. If they are the main characters with many scenes, motion capture technology must be used.

For Zhong Yue, as long as the computer effects are used, he is confident that he will improve these software to be easier to operate to save labor costs. In fact, some software in the "mobile game development platform" are also used to create special effects. However, the requirements for the effect are far less high than that of the movie.

The problem is that those model props are accumulated over decades and rely on the entire film industry. In China, I am afraid that I can't find a team of this level.

This visit made him understand that movie special effects cannot be completed like mobile game development and animation production. It only takes a team of several people to achieve the effect in Hollywood, even if he improves all the software for making computer special effects, he still needs a team of dozens of people.

In the evening, when Zhong Yue returned to the hotel, he only saw Wang Mei, Chu Yun, Xu Ruoyun and the others going out and had not come back yet.

That night, after dinner, Zhong Yue and the other two went to a nearby bar to drink some wine. They knew they were in a foreign country and were very restrained. They mainly came to see the nightlife in the United States. They returned to the hotel before 10 o'clock.

The next morning, Zhong Yue finished running and when he returned to the room, he met Xu Ruoyun coming out of the room. Seeing her look a little tired, he asked, "Didn't you have a good rest?"

"Things didn't go very well, so I came back late." Xu Ruoyun explained.

Zhong Yue said, "Today's itinerary will be postponed for two hours, so you can have a good rest."

"No, it doesn't matter if you sleep for an hour or two less."

Zhong Yue said, "Listen to me, this is not important. Don't rush to do this in one or two hours."

"Okay." Xu Ruoyun didn't feel pretentious and went back to her room.

At ten o'clock, Zhong Yue and six people set off. In Silicon Valley, the special effects company Xu Ruoyun invested in was much smaller than the one yesterday. However, it is certainly unique to be attracted by Xu Ruoyun and survived in the highly competitive special effects industry.

Although the two founders of the company are both Chinese, they are all pure Americans. They only know some simple Chinese. Apart from the appearance of Chinese people, they are no different from those white people.

Both founders seemed very enthusiastic about their arrival. This enthusiasm was obviously for Xu Ruoyun and Zhong Yue. The two took them to the company in person and introduced them to them.

Xu Ruoyun knew that Zhong Yue didn't understand, so he whispered to translate for him.

This company specializes in particle effects, which are used to simulate water, fire, fog, air and other effects. In this area, they have the world's top level.

After visiting this company, they are also preparing to return to China. There are still a lot of things in China, and it is impossible to stay here for too long.

During this trip to the United States, Zhong Yue gained a lot. He finally had a general idea about building a special effects team. Even if there were many difficulties, he had no intention of giving up. The film industry is an extremely important part of his pan-entertainment strategy, and no matter how big the difficulties are, it must be overcome.

After returning to China, Zhong Yue plunged into the promotion of Yi Management. As major application stores removed Yi Management from the shelves, Yi Management's growth rate declined significantly. This also means that the explosion period of Yi Management is about to end. If you want to maintain the growth rate, you must find more ways.

The first step is to increase the number of super apps with the lead-in volume, the second step is to strengthen cooperation with several existing channels. The third step is to lobby other app stores and let them re-list Easy Management, which is nothing more than paying some price. Everything is negotiable. The fourth step is to use various means to promote, mainly some soft articles.

In addition to the above measures, Zhong Yue privately used his killer move. He made a flashing software with stable performance and easy operation. All mainstream mobile phone brands on the market can be brushed. While he put it online for free downloads and uses, he introduced it to the mobile phone dealers he cooperated with.

In order to promote this flashing software as soon as possible, he even bought several keywords from Qiandu.

Not long after, this flashing software became a must-have software for flashing with its powerful functions.

This software has built-in easy-to-manage, and is an undelete-free enhanced version, which restores the first function of closing background programs to attract users.

With open and secret means, Yishang's installed capacity began to grow rapidly again in the second month. After the National Day, Yishang finally surpassed Qiandu Mobile Defender and became the third-largest security software with market share.

Yishu, a somewhat abnormal growth, naturally attracted the attention of competitors. After investigation, it was soon discovered that most of these growth came from the flashing software. For a time, several companies criticized Yishu. The one who responded the most fiercely was Qihu, who actually openly slandered Yishu as a rogue software in a pop-up window.

…………

"Send a lawyer's letter to Qihu Company right away."

In the conference room, Zhong Yue said with a serious expression, "This is a naked slander. Director Duan, you notify the media you have worked with and prepare to hold a press conference. We want to make a big deal about this."

From Qihu's pop-up window to now, in just half an hour, Zhong Yue called the company's management to hold a meeting and first unify his thoughts internally.

Zhong Yue knew very well that this time, if you don’t fight back hard, others will think you are weak and can be bullied, and everyone will come up and step on you.

However, he was more clear that in terms of strength, influence on the media, and relationships in the judicial system, Yiruan Company is far inferior to Qihu. It is not easy to win this battle.

Of course, Zhong Yue never thought of just fighting back on the spot. If everyone competed in a dignified manner, even if he lost, he would have nothing to complain about.

Since Qihu does not follow the rules, if you use such means to deal with his company, don’t blame him for being unreasonable and use more intense means to counterattack.

After a while, Zhong Yue returned to the office, turned on the computer, hacked into a computer and made a "broken chicken", and posted several posts on several hacking forums. Then he cleared the traces and turned off the computer.

After a while, Wang Mei came over and knocked on the door, and Xu Ruoyun came.

As a shareholder, the Xu family of Heihuai was very concerned. Not only did Xu Ruoyun come, but in the afternoon, Luke of Heihuai also came.

The press conference was held in the afternoon, with more than 20 reporters coming. At this time, of course, Zhong Yue, the ceo, personally took part. His attitude was very tough and he said that he would use legal means to maintain the company's reputation.

This is not just a counterattack, it is also a propaganda.

At this time, not only Zhong Yue was fighting back, but Xu Investment and Heihuai Capital, which invested heavily in Yiruan Company, all mobilized their relationships in the media to make things worse.

The power of the media cannot be ignored. Without Xu's investment and Heihuai Capital, once the media overturned the characterization of Yishu as a rogue software, it would be quite fatal to Yishu. At that time, it might be that the wall would fall and everyone would push it. Other competitors would jump out and step on him a few times.

With the support of some media, Yiruan Company is invincible in this verbal battle of strong and weak. People always sympathize with the weak, and Qihu's intention to suppress their competitors is so obvious.

Therefore, Zhong Yue is not afraid of big things at all. Even if the lawsuit is lost in the end, it is irrelevant. Through this lawsuit, Yiruan Company's popularity has been exaggerated. (To be continued.)
