Global Monopoly of Technology

, The latest chapter in the latest global monopoly of technology!

When Nobita came home, she couldn't wait to lock herself in her bedroom. The "virtual idol" three-piece product consisted of a rectangular matrix-shaped box.

Very delicate.

The cover is naturally the classic image of Hatsune Miku, in addition to the exclusive logo trademark of the "virtual idol" and the logo trademark of Blue Star Technology Group.

At this point, Nobita staring at the box rubbed his hands, and the box packaging design was extremely exquisite. The design here also took a lot of effort and cost.

After all, the retail price is as high as 19,999 yen. Naturally, it will not be crude and superficial, even if it is a packaged box, it also has a strong sense of quality.

Nobita carefully opened the packaging tape of the box. After all, he didn't forget that he had heard the sold-out news at the retail store, and it was not cheap.

There are several layers in the box. As always, it embodies the aesthetics of geometric deconstruction. The top layer is the music rhythm game set "Hatsune Miku: The Singer Plan." Nobi Stone purchased the PS console version. The game product is also an independent package. He didn't rush to open it, set it aside on the table and turned over the second floor.

The second layer is the original soundtrack album "Hatsune Miku: In the Name of Love", which is available in three versions and behind-the-scenes. They are also packaged separately and taken aside.

The first layer is the sound production software "SINGOID", which is still an independent package.

At this moment, Nobita looked at the three sealed cube boxes, tangled for a long time, and finally chose to open the original soundtrack first, but when he was about to throw the empty big box aside, he suddenly hesitated.

"Nani? Isn't it a three-piece suit?"

At first glance, Nobita felt that there was still another layer, and he was puzzled for a while. He didn't remember that there was a fourth product?

I did n’t think about taking it out decisively. It is also a packaging box, but it is two-thirds less than the previous three models. It is a relatively flat rectangular box. Comes with gifts? "

Definitely an unexpected surprise, he remembered that the manufacturer did not say that there were additional gifts.

Nobita decisively opened the gift first, and after unpacking, it was first a beautiful paper card.

"It turned out to be Hatsune Miku's extra background story, and I took my heart." Nobita murmured in surprise, just like Blizzard Entertainment. While its game is excellent, another big attraction is the backstory. Many players are enjoying the moment.

Hatsune Miku has a relatively complete understanding of the story through promotional films. What Nobiishi wants to know is the end of the story. What will happen after Hatsune disappears, and how humans will face the second intellectual war.

However, the story in this book is an introduction to the past and present life of Hatsune, that is, the story of "Ching" in the human era. What I have to say is that I have taken great care in the design of Hatsune's future.

At the same time, it is also an opportunity to show the Chinese culture to the outside world. Well, this is also a form of cultural output.

In addition, there is an exquisitely produced poster, which is officially certified and belongs to this one. It is very memorable. Other consumers also have it, but the content in the poster is different.

Nobita is very excited. In other words, only one person owns it, nothing is better.

What is happiness?

Happiness is something that everyone likes, only I have it, you don't, but I can show it to you.

There is also a letter with the freebie. Nobiishi opened it curiously, thinking in her heart that it was mostly a message from a business.

But he was surprised and shocked when he opened it.

"Nani? A virtual concert ticket?"

Nobita looked at the message on the letter, which roughly meant to thank for supporting Barbara, and then the focus was on Hatsune Miku ’s first virtual concert, which will be held next year, in Tokyo in October 2008.

Customers who purchase this product will have a certain probability of getting a complimentary limited-edition ticket, and Nobita screams happily. I didn't expect that I was so lucky that I could win one if the last product was bought. Tickets for a virtual concert.

"The Blue Star Company lost 199999 absolutely, haha." Nobi Shi said cheerfully, and immediately collected the virtual concert tickets, next year you can enter the venue with this ticket, and it is still the best A-class seating area, the key is Sitting there was heralded as the first group of supporters, and there was a burst of glory and honor.

Next, Nobita successively opened the other three packages one by one, synchronized the songs in the original soundtrack to the computer version of MusicSpace, and decisively opened the magical brainwashing divine song "Onion Song".

This song is really hot now.

It is worth mentioning that there are three versions of the theme songs and episodes in the three versions of the promotional videos. Most of the composition is the same but the lyrics are different. Partly due to the regional culture, there may be slight deviations in the composition.

There are three versions of "Onion Song", but the sounds are all virtual synthesized voices of Hatsune Miku. As a virtual singer, mastering multiple languages ​​is a basic operation, and real singers who can master multiple languages ​​cannot say no, but they are rare , And the scarlet ones are even rarer.

The smell of burning money is everywhere.

After synchronizing the fixing sound, Nobita began to disassemble the sound production software "SINGOID", which is mainly a CD, and completed the installation quickly. As a cartoonist, he is also very interested in audio production. He has the feeling of a director. Nobita is thinking about making some audio and video and uploading it to the barrage website.

...

Time passed day by day. After the launch of the "virtual idol" product, the sales in the Japanese market continued to be hot, and local users were also hotly discussing on the online forums. The focus was on virtual concert tickets. .

The news spread quickly in the circle. Before that, I didn't know that there were additional gifts inside the product, and there might also be a virtual concert ticket in the additional gifts.

This also adds a sense of anticipation to users who buy products, and to some extent promotes sales.

Compared with the news back to China, many netizens have talked about a few broken discs and one or two software programs that will sell more than 3,000 soft sister coins. It is too expensive. How many people will be willing to pay for it?

This is actually quite helpless. Many people have no idea about the funding for the production of promotional videos and feel that there is no cost.

It can only be said that there is still a long way to go to build awareness of copyright.

However, the hot news of this market was passed back to the mainland through media reports. It also made countless people feel incredible. I didn't expect that sales were so good over there, so many people were willing to pay for it, and users were calling it too cheaply, simply pulling hatred. Some people even ridiculed that the blue-star technology company's rhythm of selling 19,999 yen in blood loss directly filled the hatred value.

It is a truly evil capitalist world, and I really wanted to free them from the deep waters in the past.

...

In late December, the third day after the launch of the "virtual idol" product.

"General Manager Luo, the company's" virtual idol "product sales in the Japanese market are exceptionally strong, far exceeding our internal expectations." Zhang Bowen came to Luo Sheng's office to report with surprise.

"Really? How about sales?" Luo Sheng asked curiously.

"108907 units, three days of sales statistics." Zhang Bowen said this number, three days of sales exceeded 100,000 units, is absolutely super-selling, big-tempo rhythm.

Zhang Bowen added: "The products are selling well in the Japanese market, and the local media are also racing to report. They sold for three days and reached 21.77 yuan, excluding the exchange rate change of about 330 million yuan."

Luo Sheng nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, yes, it seems that the" virtual idol "program has at least fully proved that the Japanese market has been successful."

At this time, Zhang Bowen sighed and said, "Best-selling is best-selling, but compared with the scale of investment, the cost recovery is far-fetched."

Let's talk about the sales for these three days. Bluestar Technology's revenue of about 330 million yuan can only share 45.7%, about 150 million yuan, and it is still income before taxes.

Because partners such as third-party platforms and distributors have to share a profit, this means that it will need to create a sales level of tens of millions of units before it can recover $ 1 billion in production costs.

Don't look at the current super-selling, but the big data of the market is still very reliable. The sales volume of the product is likely to show a trend similar to the box office of the movie. In other words, how the sales volume of the previous two weeks will determine the final sales data will be at this line. on.

The internal forecast analysis result of the company is that the sales volume of the Japanese market is about 175 ~ 2 million sets, and the world market is about 2.3 million sets, which is still under the market's extremely promising situation.

What is the current situation of the world economy in the environment? Needless to say.

Luo Sheng said very easily: "It ’s just borrowing chickens to lay eggs. Wool doesn't have to be on sheep. The company's" virtual idol "plan is not a single product, and the virtual singer is just the carrier. What we do is A brand-new industrial chain, the strategic consideration of the layout has also risen to the entire industrial system, we have never been making money, we are doing business that will pay off after ten or even ten years. "

Zhang Bowen nodded: "That's the same."

This is like StarCraft, a real-time strategy game for Korean e-sports. The direct benefit of the entire Korean e-sports industry is so large, hundreds of millions of dollars, but South Korea has escaped the Asian financial crisis by relying on a game. In the haze, there is too much knowledge about the economic benefits.

After experiencing the financial crisis in 1997, South Korea began to adjust its economic structure. The film, animation, and game industries received a lot of support and then developed rapidly. The next year, StarCraft was released, and a large number of professionals Pass the time by playing this game.

More and more people are playing, and some Korean TV producers have noticed, so they began to produce related programs of StarCraft and achieved great success, so they further organized competitions to attract more people to watch TV programs, and then All kinds of leagues have sprung up, which has led to the emergence of OGN, the first TV professional broadcaster.

Gradually attracted the attention of South Korean authorities, so the state supported ...

It is this series of opportunities for continuous chemical reactions that have spawned a brand-new industry that has never been before. Under the favorable positive cycle catalysis, the e-sports industry quickly took off, and then radiated and expanded to the surroundings. Samsung ’s computers were also large. Selling, screen selling, and further stimulate the performance of the semiconductor industry chain.

Each time an e-sports competition is held, it is a consumption stimulus to the surrounding economic benefits. For example, as many as 100,000 people came to watch the game at the final scene of that year. Besides, the economic benefits of hotels and restaurants are incomparable. Considerable.

The economic scale directly produced by e-sports was only a few hundred million dollars, but at that time in South Korea, the output value indirectly related to e-sports once exceeded the output value of its automotive industry.

No wonder South Korean economists say that StarCraft has saved South Korea and helped South Korea get out of the economic quagmire.

It is not so much that the Koreans came out of the financial crisis with the game "StarCraft". UU Reading www.uukanshu.com came out of the rise of the emerging esports industry in South Korea, but there is no such thing as "StarCraft" There will be no subsequent esports game, and there will be no subsequent chain reaction.

The significance of Hatsune Miku is similar to that of "StarCraft" for Korean e-sports, but the carrier has changed from a game to a virtual singer.

The industry that Hatsune Miku can relate to is more imaginative than "StarCraft" in e-sports. From video to virtual concerts to content ecology, Hatsune Miku has become a symbol and representative of the second-generation culture. We must know Luo The station B of Shengsheng I was able to kill a bloodstream under the monopoly of the three industries of iQiyi, Youku, and Tencent Video, and it was founded on the ACG and UGC elements under the theme of secondary 沅.

The pulse of the times is this. A technology or a kind of existence, from appearance to lifting, it never greets you in advance, it swept the world almost overnight and caused a sensation.

If you can foresee, you can become the hegemon of the industry in the future. If you know afterwards, you can only follow the soup. If you do n’t drink the soup, the bowl will be broken.
