Let you make props, what the hell is this space elevator? - Chapter 551

c551 Film technology manufacturers are under siege!

Guo Fan was standing there, communicating with the technicians on the crew about the software developed by Jiang Chen, when he received a call from a company called Quantic.

After several verbal exchanges, Guo Fan certainly knew the other party’s purpose. After Guo Fan told the other party that he wanted to think about it, he hung up the phone.

“Director Guo, do you really want to consider it?”

“What are you considering? How is it possible? I have to pay extra to use their technology, and the effect is not as good as what Academician Jiang provided. How can I not figure out how to cooperate with them?”

“Anyway, we didn’t sign a contract before, so we just don’t cooperate.”

When the crew heard this, they were immediately relieved.

But soon, after people from Quantic learned that Guo Fan’s crew did not intend to use the technology, they did not give up. They joined forces with other film technology companies and did not provide any technology to Longguo filmmakers.

“Now let’s see what they use to make movies!”

“Does Guo Fan really think that their Academician Jiang is omnipotent and can do anything?”

“It’s really ridiculous. Guo Fan thought we couldn’t do anything! He really underestimated us!”

“As an established overlord in the film industry, our technologies have all been patented. He doesn’t really think that anything can be substituted!”

“Yes, in order to capture this movie market, we must give them some color!”

“As long as we relax a little today and take a moment, they will ride on us!”

At first, when Guo Fan heard the news, he thought it didn’t matter. Anyway, now that he has the technology provided by Jiang Chen, it doesn’t matter if he doesn’t cooperate with these manufacturers.

But soon, he discovered that Quantic was really ruthless and banned all the rendering engines, editing and storyboard software they needed to use in their work.

MOSS can help with editing and storyboarding, but the rendering engine cannot.

MOSS can play a certain role in the rendering engine, but it cannot directly replace the traditional rendering engine.

The main task of the rendering engine is to convert the three-dimensional scene into a two-dimensional image, taking into account lighting, material, shadow and other factors to produce the final visual effect. It can be said that if it were not for a specific algorithm, the effect would be difficult to meet Guo Fan’s standards. .

“Director Guo, what’s going on? I heard that all the software we use has been banned?” After Wu Pan heard the news, he hurriedly went to find Guo Fan.

“It’s all disabled. We can’t log in to our accounts. I asked other directors and they couldn’t use it.”

Wu Gan has also been a director, so of course he knows what this means. If all the tools are not given to others, then why are they filming?

What’s more, other crews are not able to use equipment like MOSS and 550W like them. Now that the software is disabled, other people have to stop working.

While Wu Gan and Guo Fan were talking, Guo Fan’s cell phone rang. It turned out to be another director Ning calling.

Guo Fan had a close relationship with Director Ning. When he saw that it was the other party calling, Guo Fan hurriedly answered the call.

“Director Guo, I heard that our software has been banned. What’s going on? Those technology manufacturers are really turning their backs on each other and not recognizing anyone else!”

After Guo Fan talked about the motion capture technology, Director Ning suddenly realized: “I asked why they had such a big reaction. It turned out to be because of this.”

“Director Guo, let me be honest. Now their bunch of idiots have disabled all the software we use. It is really difficult for us to hold on to the projects we have. Do you think Academician Jiang can think of a way? Otherwise, We can’t even start work!”

Director Ning actually didn’t say this, but Guo Fan knew it. After he promised Director Ning that he would go to Jiang Chen to find a solution, Director Ning breathed a sigh of relief and hung up the phone.

“Director Guo, are you really going to find Academician Jiang? He is probably busy with alien affairs recently! Will it affect other people’s scientific research if we go looking for him now?”

“Let me send him a message first. If he doesn’t come forward to solve the current situation, we will definitely give in. Brother Ge, you have also been a director. You know that directors are under great pressure. There are at least hundreds of people in an ordinary crew, so work is suspended like this. If we go down there, how will they eat?”

“Those hundreds of people are also hundreds of families. If the crew stops working and there is no money, how will they survive?”

Wu Pan heard Guo Fan say this and realized the seriousness of the matter.

“We shouldn’t have continued to use foreign software in the first place. These companies are really disrespectful!” Wu Wan said bitterly.

He knew that as a commercial film, if you want to use those software, you can only use genuine software. Once pirated software is used, it is easy to be discovered, not to mention that the functions are not complete.

Ordinary people have a very low chance of being caught using pirated software, but it is different for a large film production unit like Guo Fan. People only need to check the serial number and registration code to know whether Guo Fan is using genuine software.

Once it is verified that pirated software is used, the other party will never give up and directly sue. Not only will they pay money, but the international impact will not be good.

Therefore, you can only use genuine software provided by those technology manufacturers.

When Guo Fan sent the message, Jiang Chen was exchanging DNA information in alien remains with people in the laboratory.

“What can be confirmed is that the alien is about 1.23 meters long and has a head similar to a rabbit skull.”

What a combination this is.

Jiang Chen originally thought that the other party’s remains did not grow long because they were dried in the air, but to his surprise, the other party was not tall to begin with.

This was a bit different from the aliens he imagined.

But that’s okay, this kind of alien doesn’t seem to be very aggressive.

“Our analysis shows that this alien has lived for at least more than two hundred Blue Star years.”

More than two hundred blue star years?

“That means it is more than two hundred years old?” Jiang Chen frowned. This is much longer than human life. What did the other person eat to grow?

Bao Wen nodded and said, “That’s true. We judge based on bone development and bone composition. There are errors in the data, but it is indeed over two hundred years old.”

“If this is the case, can we use its genetic information to achieve human immortality?”

Jiang Chen suddenly thought of it.

“Academician Jiang wants to research in this area?” Bao Wen looked at Jiang Chen in surprise. He did not expect that the other party would think of gene editing.

“Currently, space exploration projects have also been stopped. Others are responsible for Mars and the moon. My main task now is related to the alien remains.”

“But gene editing is too difficult. Editing one gene may have unexpected effects on other genes. This…”

“We always need to try. Trying is better than sitting around, right? What if we find a gene that can “stay up all night without harming the body” in the future?” Jiang Chen certainly knows that gene editing is difficult. , but he did it!

If such a gene was really developed, he felt that Guo Fan would be the first to want it!
