Chapter 162 From now on, let's talk about our own(1/2)

When most people mention the Renaissance, they may have only a partial understanding of it, except that it is an important turning point in Western history.

But the world understands that the impact of the Renaissance on today, and more importantly the emergence of the capitalist class, is not good or bad for the general public. It is nothing more than changing from one boss to another.

"Don't look at me like that. I am a good citizen and a staunch proletarian!" Wang Shifeng straightened his back and said, "You are right. The businessmen at that time were able to use art as a glove to push the statues. We

You can also use art as a glove to pop the bubble.”

"Oh? You are talking arrogantly." Wang Luo raised his eyebrows and sneered, "Are you Dante? Can you write "The Divine Comedy"? Or can Giovanni Boccaccio write "The Decameron"?"

"Uh... I'm not that good at all." Wang Shifeng sneered, "But I have skills."

"Technology?" Wang Luo was startled and looked Wang Shifeng up and down. "I remember you are an art student. What technology are you studying?"

"Artificial intelligence." Wang Shifeng said solemnly.

"..." Wang Luo was silent for a long time. "You are the twentieth person who has tried to use this trick to defraud investors in front of me. Do you really think that we old people are all fools? What if there is such a thing?"

If you want to build high-tech, you still need money? That kid from the west who is making driverless cars and electric cars is about to become the richest man in the world."

"I'm not asking you to invest, I still want to invest in you!" Wang Shifeng smiled slightly.

Wang Luo was even more confused.

You...invest in me?

"Little brother, I'm not trying to hit you, you should know that I'm quite rich." Wang Luo said in a humble tone.

"It's too tacky for us to talk about money. What we are investing in is the future of mankind and the Blue Star!" Wang Shifeng said seriously.

"Then I can now conclude that you are a liar." Wang Luo laughed and said, "Everyone who talks about the future is a liar, without exception."

"Uncle Wang, the electromagnetic gun has been mass-produced." Wang Shifeng frowned.

Wang Luo's laughter stopped suddenly, and he narrowed his eyes and looked serious.

"You just said that you despise the media industry because in addition to affecting the social atmosphere, there is also an excessive bubble premium phenomenon, right?" Wang Shifeng said solemnly.

"Yeah." Wang Luo nodded and said nothing more.

"My technology is specialized in controlling premiums." Wang Shifeng raised the corners of his lips with a wild smile. "The manufacturer has pricing power, and in addition to cost, pricing power mainly depends on market demand. Why is the premium high? Because the demand is high and the supply is low.

, this is the simplest supply and demand relationship, right?”

"Yes." Wang Luo started chewing peanuts.

"Take the foot washing mentioned by Uncle Wang as an example. The original 68 service is now ten times more expensive because of the scarcity of products. If you want the price to return to normal levels, you must ensure the supply of products, even over-production and supply, and you can also

Keep the price down and let the service go up." Wang Shifeng said with a smile.

"Oh? Involvement?" Wang Luo took a sip of wine with interest.

"Yes, it is about to get involved! The premiums for capital and products in the entertainment industry are too high, but the quality cannot keep up at all. Currently, there are less than ten real top stars in China, and each of them represents a top company.

An entertainment company with a market value of nearly 100 billion, this premium is too exaggerated." Wang Shifeng shook his head and said.

"The generation of top flow is the effect of capital investment. If you want to maintain a market capitalization bubble of 100 billion, you really need tens of billions of real money to circulate in it, and a tenfold premium is not considered high leverage in the financial industry." Wang Luoqing

Shake his head.

"But the real wealth of these capitals is indeed increasing every year." Wang Shifeng said solemnly.

"Finance has always been like this. The common people's money is divided into quarters, and the wealthy gentry's money is paid back in full. This has no direct relationship with what you want to do." Wang Luo hit the nail on the head.

The bubble in the entertainment industry is just a product of finance. Even if there is no such product, there will be another product. This is not enough to form the so-called "Renaissance".

"No, what I want is traffic." Wang Shifeng said coldly, "The essence of this bubble is not the operation of finance, but the distribution of traffic. In the future era, whoever controls enough traffic will control pricing power, and

Uncle Wang must know more about the role of traffic than I do."

Wang Luo frowned slightly, poured a glass of wine and pondered for a moment, "Can your technology kill the top players in the entertainment industry? Take the traffic away from them? The cost must be high. I think it will be a loss, so just compete with e-commerce.

It’s the same money.”

"There is no need to burn money. Of course, a certain amount of capital is still needed as principal." Wang Shifeng smiled slightly and shook his head.

"What is artificial intelligence?" Wang Luo became interested.

"Head-changing technique." Wang Shifeng said with a smile.

"Huh?" Wang Luo was startled.

"A few years ago in the West, there was an engineer named Sage Boring who created a technology called d0eepface, which replaced the faces of some female leading actors in literary and artistic films with popular stars, causing a huge sensation. The principle is that artificial intelligence can only identify a large number of

The technology of taking photos, accumulating information database, and finally replacing faces is not difficult, and the highest error level is about 27%." Wang Shifeng explained.

"An error of 27% should be very unnatural." Wang Luo frowned.

"My technology can achieve an error of 1%, almost perfect replacement." Wang Shifeng chuckled.

"Huh? Really?" Wang Luo was a little surprised.

"Not only that, my artificial intelligence can also learn 'acting skills' in depth." Wang Shifeng continued.

"What do you mean?" Wang Luo asked.

"The essence of performance is imitation and understanding. For example, for the expression of stomachache, I can collect videos of various stomach disease patients around the world, then analyze, learn and optimize, and finally transplant it to the face transplant." Wang Shifeng said.

Wang Luo's expression finally changed. At this moment, he suddenly realized that if Wang Shifeng's technology was real, then perhaps, this would really be a 'Renaissance'!

Because this technology is equivalent to exchanging technical costs for labor costs, and only needs to pay a valuable ‘face’.

To put it bluntly, the essence of the entertainment industry is ‘face’.

It doesn’t matter whether it starts with appearance or loyalty to character, what fans ultimately follow is the symbol behind that ‘face’.

Why are top celebrities valuable? Because the time of that ‘face’ is valuable.

No matter you are poor or rich, time is the fairest. Everyone only has twenty-four hours in a day.

No matter how hard a top actor works, the number of films, advertisements, events, and endorsements he can appear in in a year is limited.

But the scary thing about Wang Shifeng's technology is that if the cost can be reasonable, he can multiply the time of these "faces" to the power.

So what are the consequences?

Overcapacity! Price cuts! Involution!

What’s even more frightening is that this technology has another function, ‘learning acting skills’.

Acting skills are not something that is just blown away. It is subjective judgment made by everyone after seeing it with their own eyes. But there is no doubt that good acting skills are enough to make everyone like it.

The main reason why most traffic stars are criticized is that their ethics are not matched, and their acting or professional skills are not worthy of their value, resulting in a premium. This is actually a commercial fraud.

However, culture is difficult to judge legally.

But if you can perform well, who wants to be scolded?

If this technology is available, if nothing else, at least the top capital will be willing to pay for it.

And more importantly, this technology can create top streams.

The top-notch ‘face’ is essentially a combination of the appearance of the character’s work.

Among them, the most important character design requires a long period of accumulation. This kind of thing cannot be achieved overnight, unless it becomes an instant hit in the work, such as a certain Wolf Warrior.

But such opportunities are too rare.

With this technology, one face can be used to shoot ten movies at the same time, and one movie will be released every month!

Scanning your face all year round is mandatory to make the audience familiar with it. This routine is similar to buying hot searches, but buying hot searches requires a lot of effort. There are not so many topics to create all year round, and excessive hot searches will make people disgusted.

But works will not. In an era of abundant material resources, no matter how many film and television works there are, the audience will buy them as long as they are interested and as long as they are worth it.

There is no doubt that the gameplay and prospects of this technology are terrifying. If it can really achieve a 1% error rate replacement, it will be extremely scary if you think about it!

Technology is the primary productive force, there is no doubt about it.

"Cost." After Wang Luo realized the value of this technology, his drunken eyes were particularly sober.

"Only I know." Wang Shifeng kept smiling.

"I have invested in several companies at home and abroad in the field of artificial intelligence. I will let people evaluate this technology, but it is best if you can give me a sample, and you have to tell me how much you want." Wang Luo

He stared at Wang Shifeng with burning eyes.

"The money won't be used for the time being. I'm currently running into some troubles. Uncle Wang should know that our company is going to make a movie." Wang Shifeng said with a smile.

"I've heard that it's been in the news a lot lately, saying that you scolded other directors as inferior to dogs, which is a disgrace to you. I told the truth." Wang Luo laughed.

"It was just a joke at the dinner table. I didn't expect someone to be stepped on and it hurt. I didn't want to cause such a big fuss. Now the industry has completely blocked us in film and television. The movie is easy to make, but it is difficult to release it." Wang Shifeng was a little helpless.

said.

"I understand. I'll go back and say hello to Qianli Cinema. Your movie can be screened there." Wang Luo said casually.

Qianli Cinema Line?

Xia Kingdom's largest private cinema chain has more than 300 co-branded cinemas across the country, more than 2,000 screens, and 200 million moviegoers every year!

You must know that the total number of moviegoers in Xia Kingdom is just over 700 million throughout the year.

There is no doubt that Qianli Cinemas is a very influential giant in the domestic film and television industry.

With such resources, Wang Luo can just ask him to do it?
