Chapter 645 Multi-Display Technology and Video Wall

……

"I've wanted to try this kind of thing with you for a long time." Celine Dion stared at Tang Huan busy in and out with wide eyes, while smiling and telling her little secret.

"So you insist on making trouble to see me." Tang Huan teased.

Celine Dion suddenly became shy and shy, covered her eyes with her hands and defended: "If people don't solve this wish, they won't be able to concentrate on preparing for the Eurovision Song Contest."

"In this way, I really have a heavy responsibility to serve you, a rising star." Tang Huan brought a pillow over with a smile, and thoughtfully helped Xiao Nizi to make it up.

At this stage, Celine Dion's singing career is based on pop music in the French-speaking region, and she is already a veritable first-class star in the French-speaking region of Canada. As a springboard, enter the French-speaking markets in Europe including France, Switzerland, and Belgium.

Celine Dion's first song ""Cen'étaitqu'unrêve"" - "It's just a dream", spread from Canada to France, also became a hit song, her other single "D 'amouroud'amitié" - "Love and Friendship", reached a new level, selling 50000 copies in Canada and 700000 copies in France, winning the golden song record.

It has to be said that a strong mother tongue area plays an extremely important role in the development space of artists.If the current mainland market has the same influence as the original time and space decades later, the achievements of the Hong Kong cultural industry, whose creativity is commendable at this time, may not be limited to a so-called golden age, and the infinite nostalgia and regret after a flash in the pan.

For Celine Dion personally, with Tang Huan's careful cultivation, at least she doesn't have to travel to various performance venues like Deng Lijun in her early years for her livelihood.In addition to concentrating on accumulating fame through record performance, its main task is to participate in various music competitions, music festivals and other large-scale events, such as the Yamaha Music Festival in Tokyo, Japan, and the San Francisco Music Festival in the United States.

Celine Dion's achievements in the international market are highly recognized. Switzerland, which has four languages: German, French, Italian, and Romansh, invited her to represent herself in the "Eurovision Song Contest".

You know, after hosting the first "Eurovision Song Contest" and winning that year's championship, Switzerland has been missing out on this honor, and now it's almost to the point where it's almost hopeless. This time, Celine Dion It can be said that it took great pains to help out.

Although the European Union has not yet been established, some of the predecessor alliance structures have been in operation for decades, which can be traced back to the establishment of the European Coal and Steel Community in 1952.By 1958, the European Economic Community and the European Atomic Energy Community were established one after another.Finally, in 1967, they were unified under the mechanism of the European Communities.

This development trajectory is exactly the manifestation of the idea of ​​European unification.

In the field of radio and television in Europe, there is also a similar union, that is, the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), which was founded in 1950 and is headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland. It unites a large number of radio and television stations in Europe and North Africa. At the same time, the momentum is not small.

And "Eurovision Song Contest" - "European Song Contest" is a singing competition carefully created by this organization. Since it was held in 1956, it has become the largest known singing competition in the world, attracting hundreds of millions of viewers to watch every year.

Obviously, the "Eurovision Song Contest" is a stage with great influence. In addition to the country's honor, individuals can also achieve brilliant career achievements. The Swedish pop music band ABBA, which won in 1974 and became an international superstar, is A most successful example.

Tang Huan also wanted to replicate the successful model of the ABBA band, so he managed Celine Dion to participate in the "Eurovision Song Contest", and even tried to provide some off-site assistance, but unfortunately it was not easy to operate.

Gein After so many years of development, the mechanism of "Eurovision Song Contest" itself has been perfected.

Each year's "Eurovision Song Contest" is held in the country where the champion of the previous year is located. There is no limit to the language of the songs sung, but it must be within one year, that is, from the previous year's "Eurovision Song Contest" to this year's "Eurovision Song Contest". "A new song written before the national audition.

Participating countries send a singer or an orchestra to sing a song of their choice. The singer must be at least 6 years old. It is not allowed to cover the works of other singers, fake singing is not allowed, and more than 3 singers in the orchestra are not allowed to sing at the same time. Animals are not allowed Participate.Song length is not allowed to exceed [-] minutes.

In addition to these strict competition rules, the scoring process of the "Eurovision Song Contest" is even more distinctive, and the group phenomenon has become an unspoken rule.

For example, the Nordic countries such as Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, and Finland must give each other votes; the English-speaking countries such as Ireland and the United Kingdom also support each other.

As a result, this pattern is in an elusive check and balance, and even those old-fashioned bookmakers will occasionally miscalculate the odds and be hit by a big black horse.

Tang Huan studied for a long time, and finally came up with the most brutal method, which is to directly disrupt the rhythm of the competitors, thereby weakening their strength.

Just yesterday, the media just reported a shocking news: Belgian fraud, the participating singer Sandra King, said that she was 16 years old, but in fact she was only 13 years old.

In the face of the ironclad evidence, Belgium was in a dilemma immediately. The final of the "Eurovision Song Contest" is scheduled to be held on May 5. In less than a month, changing the participating singers is almost equivalent to being out.

Gein's participation in the "Eurovision Song Contest" is essentially a process of burning money for packaging, publicity, and promotion. It is stipulated that a new song must be created within the last year. There is a matching process with the singer, and there is also a stage of being recognized. Otherwise, how to win the votes of member states where the phenomenon of hilltops is common?

Tang Huancai didn't bother to care about Belgium's dilemma. Since he cheated, he had to be mentally prepared to accept the truth.

He came to Switzerland this time not only because he was shocked by the sudden terrorist bombing and wanted to change his office to stabilize his mind, but also planned to promote his high-tech products by visiting the European Broadcasting Union.And the upcoming "Eurovision Song Contest" will be able to use his new products.

After the technology has passed the stage of non-foundational creation and invention from zero to one, the speed of development will be significantly accelerated.

LCD is an example. Epson, a Japanese base with complete resources, just sent a newly completed product to Hannover Messe for debut. Tang Huan was not only surprised, but also very happy.

This result is Videowall - TV curtain wall. Its appearance is not only due to the continuous breakthrough of display technology, but also because the graphics card technology of Fangyuan Computer has developed to a new stage.

Among high-end graphics workstation graphics cards, 2D acceleration has become a standard configuration, and multi-monitor technology is making the icing on the cake.

There are naturally many places where TV curtain walls can flex their muscles. The first is outdoor advertising. A large-scale event such as the "Eurovision Song Contest" is also indispensable.

Through Tang Huan's personal lobbying, this year's "Eurovision Song Contest" will make two major breakthroughs in technology.

First of all, two huge TV curtain walls were introduced, one on each side of the stage, so that the dynamic images of the performers in the backstage lounge can be presented in time to the audience, thereby providing a brand new viewing experience.

Secondly, the new scoreboard supported by the Fangyuan computer will also be put into use.

In the future, live TV will only use more and more IT technologies.Tang Huan has long aimed at this high-end field and carried out corresponding research and development.

The "Eurovision Song Contest" side nodded in agreement, and the Asian side initially adjusted the parameters in place and was ready to ship.

Tang Huan was very satisfied with this, and couldn't help but patted Celine Dion's buttocks and joked: "For this year's Eurovision Song Contest, I will not only promote newcomers, but also new technologies and products."

Celine Dion waved her small fist with a grin, and helped to conclude: "We want to get rich and rich."

Seeing that Xiao Nizi is so cute and clingy, Tang Huan stayed in Switzerland for a few more days with his well-informed partner, helping her to recharge her batteries and get ready for the "Eurovision Song Contest".

This kind of good life naturally passed quickly, and almost in a blink of an eye came to April 4. The United States, which had completed its preparations, began air strikes on Libya and responded strongly to the bombing of the Berlin discotheque.

In fact, due to the "push back" foreign policy pursued by Reagan since he came to power, the contradictions have inevitably intensified, and as a result, there are many Americans who have suffered outside the United States in recent years.

The most tragic one was on November 1983, 11, when a car bomb attacked a US military barracks in Lebanon in the Middle East, killing as many as 23 US Marines.

For Reagan, this lesson was like the sky falling.

The bombing of a discotheque in Berlin caused the death of three American soldiers. Reagan did not let go of Muammar Gaddafi after he was arrested, and he was determined to attack Libya once.

At 4:15 a.m. local time on April 1, the U.S. Navy and Air Force completed air coordination and entered combat status.

First, the U.S. military dispatched EA-6 Prowler electronic combat aircraft to begin electronic interference with Libya's air defense missile guidance radar and wireless communications.

Immediately afterwards, the naval aviation carrier-based aircraft took the lead in launching missile attacks on the Libyan army's air defense positions, destroying five ground radar stations and forcing other radar stations to shut down, paralyzing the entire Libyan air defense system and creating favorable conditions for the main attack.

While the carrier-based aircraft suppressed the Libyan air defense positions, 16 F-111 fighter-bombers from the British Air Force Base, and 14 A-6 intruder attack aircraft that took off from the USS Coral Sea and USS America, formed 5 The air strike formation launched simultaneous attacks on five planned targets in Tripoli and Benghazi at 4:15 on April 2th.

In the direction of Tripoli: 3 formations attacked the residence of Libyan leader Gaddafi, the Azizia Barracks where the Libyan General Staff is located, the military area of ​​Tripoli International Airport, and the "Commando Training Center" of the Sidi Bilal Barracks;
In the direction of Benghazi: 2 formations attacked the Benghazi Benina military airport and the Benghazi Jamahiriya barracks respectively.

By 2:12, the US air strike ended.The duration before and after is 18 minutes in total, of which the main attack time is only 11 minutes.

In this air strike, the U.S. military dispatched more than 150 navy and air force aircraft, destroyed 14 Libyan military aircraft, injured several aircraft, destroyed 5 Libyan radar stations, and killed and injured more than 700 Libyan soldiers and civilians.

Gaddafi himself was slightly injured, as was his six son Saif al-Arab Gaddafi, and his one and a half-year-old adopted daughter died in the air strike.

It can be said that the United States has achieved a tactical victory.

Tang Huan's hands are not long enough to care about the combat power and results of the US military.What he is really interested in is what kind of effect this report will achieve on CNN, which almost broadcast the Gulf War live in the original time and space.

The U.S. air strike on Libya this time certainly did not intend to kill the other party at once. Apart from beating warnings, it was mainly to give an explanation to the country.

Tang Huan, who saw through this essence, entrusted Bush Jr. to go out and let CNN take on the propaganda task of directly hitting the scene.

In addition, a new type of game development team of EA is also responsible for tracking this incident throughout.

This year, the home game console market in North America has fully recovered, and everyone has finally seen the moon and the moon, and the hard days are coming to an end.Tang Huan plans to launch the third-generation Xiaobawang game console with more powerful performance, and military RPG will become a selling point.The U.S. air strike on Libya will be a source of adrenaline stimulation for players.

Not to mention, the efficiency of CNN is really high - of course, it is mainly because of the use of Tang Huan's high-tech digital program processing system, which almost broadcast the process of the US air strike on Libya live.

Since Libya broke off diplomatic relations with the United States in 1982, it has repeatedly expressed its support for many terrorist activities against the United States in Europe and the Middle East. There are no different voices in the United States. Everyone is **** Enjoying the "war blockbuster" produced by CNN with passion.

As a result, everyone's reaction was similar to Tang Huan's; and those in the industry saw the growing power of digital multimedia equipment worth tens of thousands of dollars to hundreds of thousands of dollars.

This is simply an arms race in the media field, but in order not to be left behind by competitors, they really have to obediently buy a set of such guys.
