    The hotly debated technical posts posted online did not actually have much impact on Pandora, but public opinion was another matter.  Many people feel that since the structure of Pandora format has been cracked, the next step is not far from cracking Pandora format itself. A large number of cheap pirated Pandora formats will spring up like mushrooms after a rain.  But they didn't realize that the 3D format itself is actually compatible with the Pandora helmet, so the rhythm of the Pandora format analysis in that post was actually just a gimmick. Even normal 3D movie formats or 2D movie formats can be watched directly with the Pandora helmet.  The technical post also analyzes what the Pandora format is all about, which is interesting. However, qualitative analysis alone cannot clear the fog for other people's development. Industry insiders read the analysis and then calculate their own calculations based on their assumptions.  To capture the full panoramic view of every shot, the workload is no less than reshooting the entire movie.  So in fact, everyone who knows the industry knows that Pandora must have an assembly line method when processing movie formats. This is Pandora's core secret.  But the insights of people in the industry cannot affect the general public. Everyone looks at the hacker who revealed Pandora's secrets almost like Robin Hood.  And the public has begun to dream that they will be able to download a large number of free Pandora-format movies in the near future. The Chinese people are obviously the most likely to think so.  However, as long as those who have experienced Pandora-style movies will experience a 3D movie projected by the so-called Pandora helmet, they will inevitably be disappointed.  Although the effect is enough to crush ordinary computers and DVDs, and is even comparable to theaters, it is compared with the Pandora format, which has 360 degrees of no dead ends and can change the viewing angle at any time.  The 3D format is still not enough.  What's more, due to the locked angle of view, the lens transitions in the movie often make it easy to get out of touch, and the smoothness is by no means comparable to the carefully crafted Pandora format, so.  Owners of Pandora helmets know better than the general public, and even better than industry insiders, that the Pandora format is irreplaceable in a short time.  This is directly reflected in the sales of new films.  The first batch of movies in the agreement signed by major movie companies and Pandora had just been released, and they were frantically bought. It was exactly the same as the previous rush to grab helmets. However, after all, movie copies are very easy to copy, unlike helmets that need to be produced on the production line.  Stayed for such a long time.  At the same time, because the number of helmets currently available is limited, the sales of the film are also capped.  But the sales still shocked the Hollywood bosses. The sales growth curve was almost logarithmic and close to the sales ceiling. In just a few weeks, each film earned hundreds of millions of dollars.  This growth rate is faster than the box office growth when it was released.  So the Hollywood company changed its style and became concerned about expanding the production capacity of the Pandora helmet production line.  North American factories are expanding production capacity while producing, and can basically guarantee a weekly production volume of close to 300,000, but this production volume is barely enough. The Chinese production line, which has high hopes, has just entered trial production, with a daily output of less than 1,000.  The output is not enough to meet the consumption of one local city in China.  Don¡¯t even expect to be able to meet the huge demand worldwide.  At this time, a small company sent an application to Pandora, hoping that Pandora could authorize them to use the patented technology used in Pandora helmet manufacturing.  This small company probably made this request with the idea that it would prevent pregnancy anyway. In fact, their own production capacity is also very limited. Some of their previous products still need to outsource or purchase a large amount of equipment.  However, in terms of technology, this small company has great potential. They have made great achievements in the field of immersive projection before, when the Pandora helmet appeared.  This company easily found that Pandora pointed out the direction of development for them in the area of ??projection, and it was not difficult for them to repeat Pandora's samples in this area.  But getting around Pandora's patents isn't easy.  So this small company tried to apply for patent authorization and planned to use this patent in other places, such as the three-dimensional real projector they were researching.  Nick Anderson readily agreed to their request.  Authorizing the company to use Pandora's patents on very generous terms, which of course includes equity transfers, restrictive third-party re-transfer contracts, etc. Pandora's move seems to be entirely their own internal affairs, but it caused a big stir.  .  Its competitors were stunned to find out that Pandora would actually do this, which means that maybe they don't need to bypass complicated patented technology to be ingenious and just buy the license directly from them.  Apple first tried to contact Nick Anderson. They also wanted to launch a projection device.  Pandora is not harsh on Apple's licensing conditions. They have made it clear that they will not sell out their technology patents, but will only use a commission. Qualcomm will live well on this basis in the future.  Apple was overjoyed and quickly signed a contract in which they would pay $35 for every product sold using the technology.The royalties are paid to Pandora.  So Google also actively followed up, and they made it clear that they would use this technology on Google Glass.  Then Nick Anderson agreed to Google¡¯s application as if he was crazy, and the commission rate reached 5% of the product price.  Nick Andreessen generously opened up technical barriers as if he didn't care that Google was his direct competitor.  However, at the same time, Pandora also announced that Pandora's technology licenses would not be more than ten.  Authoritative sources began to analyze whether Nick Anderson's move was to get the federal prosecutor's office to drop its monopoly investigation into Pandora.  But no matter so much, Google has proudly announced its release plan for Google Glass. Their final design is that the glasses serve as a display and input terminal, and there is a host paired with the glasses.  Android phones took on this task. After completing the hardware problem, Google focused on the balanced development of software.  Apple is also involved in this project. Their requirement is that Google Glass can be connected to Apple phones or Mac computers.  ??The conflict between Google and Apple was already considered irreconcilable at this time, so the original collaboration plan was completely bankrupt. The two parties divided up the results of the current stage and each went to develop their own things.  Predictable.  The Android system and the iOS system obviously have a homogeneous point of competition, which is exactly what Nick Anderson is looking forward to.  But the production technology and patents of Pandora format are in his hands, so even if Google and Apple come out with hardware and software, they still need to purchase the patented technology of Pandora format movies, and then consumers want to watch Pandora format movies.  Movies still have to go to Pandora and its partner companies to purchase backup copies of the film.  "So this is your ultimate goal? First-rate companies make standards. Second-rate companies make brands, and third-rate companies make products?" Shen Zhenghui asked.  "What you said is too easy. Of course it's not that simple." Nick Anderson spread his hands, "You know, although the United States has Qualcomm and Apple, the United States is still in a financial crisis." "They are multinationals.  Enterprises. For multinational companies, there is no motherland." Shen Zhenghui pursed his lips, "But obviously, Hollywood has a motherland, although their integrity is not high when it comes to box office. But I still doubt that.  In the end, whether it can meet the spiritual and cultural needs of people around the world, their demand for Pandora will become greater and greater.¡± ¡°Yes,¡± Nick Anderson responded, ¡°Now it is already available in places like the United States, Japan, and France.  A new business model has emerged. Some people use Pandora helmets and Pandora movies to build places similar to Internet cafes for people to have fun. "Shen Zhenghui smacked his lips, "Is this okay?" "Just like Internet cafes were also popular when computers were expensive.  "Nick Anderson responded, "It's so hard to buy helmets now, so they are smart enough to come up with such an idea." He waved his hand.  Somewhat helpless, "Such a store is actually doing very well, and the owner quickly recouped the cost. He earns more than me selling helmets." "Do you want to explain that you have contributed to the revitalization of the economy?" "This is considered a success.  "Fake revitalization," Nick Anderson said clearly, "Apple phones and Android phones are also selling well, but they cannot save the world economy. It is obvious that the problem lies in income distribution. It is obvious that the policy of re-industrialization is reliable.  "To make people work and survive, we must first make money." "Does this have anything to do with us?" "It still has something to do with it," said Nick Anderson.  Raising his eyebrows, "As the first film director in the world to actually shoot the Pandora format instead of converting it to Pandora format later, don't you think your studio is groundbreaking?" "The trouble is much more groundbreaking." "The new format  The shooting requires much more use of hands, tools, etc. than before. At the same time, it can also ensure that the investment can be recovered. After all, with the big killer of Pandora format, this means bigger and more  "Huh? Do you think so?" "Of course, this is my speech in recognition of my achievements in the future. You know, the scale of Hollywood is getting bigger and bigger, and at the same time, domestic films in various countries are getting bigger.  Because the existence of Pandora's format has also raised the upper limit of profitability, this may be an opportunistic development in the entertainment industry. "I have seen this kind of opportunistic development. The result is that even cats and dogs in China can become directors. Although  Many of them make bad movies, but there are also many who kill those backward professional directors whose background is not up to date with the times. " "Metabolism is a matter of course," Nick Anderson disagreed, "I will wait now.  to becomeThe savior of the country¡¯s economy.  He laughed and asked casually, "When will your movie be released?"  " "It will be released soon, and the summer vacation is on schedule.  Shen Zhenghui replied, "The Pandora version will take more time."  " "Isn't this just right?  "Nick Anderson said, "Everyone watched the movie in the cinema and thought it was good. Then they spent money to buy Pandora movies and collect them at home. They relived them over and over again, but you didn't take the second and third movies by the way while filming the first one.  After the filming was completed, I felt a little disappointed.  " "The first part is two episodes, okay?  Shen Zhenghui retorted, "Besides, I think Carl and Friedrich are very good. You should trust Angela's vision."  " "Yes, I shouldn't hurt her in this regard.  "Nick Anderson was silent for a while, and then suddenly said, "If you are free, you can come to my laboratory to help me test the next generation Pandora system.  " Shen Zhenghui asked suspiciously, "Are you ready to release a game console?  " "Of course not. My production line has just started to expand its production capacity. I have to wait until the first generation is sold out before considering upgrading."  ¡± He said, ¡°But this does not mean that our research cannot be at the forefront.  " "Your research has always been at the forefront.  "Shen Zhenghui curled his lips, but he was also deeply curious about the new generation of Pandora, "So can it realize the function of virtual online games?  Is it even possible to lock the player's consciousness into the game and the helmet?  " "You must have read too many similar science fiction novels," Nick Anderson pursed his lips, "Those who tried to discredit Pandora also made the same argument. They just said that Pandora is a socket provided by the mother body. You should plug your head in."  Go in.  " Shen Zhenghui laughed, "I think it's quite similar, almost.  " "But human beings will not reject a possible new world.  "Nick Anderson blinked, "I promise.  " "Can I take my girlfriend there?  "Shen Zhenghui asked. "Your girlfriend?  Nick Anderson asked, "Isn't it your wife?"  " "She just gave birth to a baby in China.  Shen Zhenghui pursed his lips and said, "So she is taking care of the children in China under the care of my parents."  "Shen Zhenghui said. "So you brought another girlfriend here. I have to say that I am really jealous of you.  " "Don't say that, I remember the first time I saw you, you and Jennifer Aniston were together.  " "We are just friends.  " "The friend I brought here is just a woman.  " Nick Anderson paused, "Okay," he said, "So who is this?  " "You will be interested in her identity," Shen Zhenghui responded, "Her name is Wang" "Oh, god!  "Nick Anderson exclaimed, and then he reacted randomly, "Is this the partner you prepared for me?  It seems that her family's influence in mainland China's political landscape is somewhat limited.  " "This is a good collaborator," Shen Zhenghui said seriously, "You have to consider that China will change its leadership within two years.  " "Indeed.  "Nick Anderson touched his chin, "I thought Mitsumi Fukuda would come back," he said, "After all, Japan doesn't seem to be very safe recently.  " "She has her own ideas.  " "It looks like you have too.  "Nick Anderson waved his hand, "Okay, I will make good arrangements and entertain the princess.  You can rest assured of this.  ¡± Shen Zhenghui was noncommittal about this.
