...

With the end of the press conference, the news spread from Akihabara to all over the world, and major overseas media rushed to report. Bluestar Technology once again dominated the world’s headlines, bringing the current information to a world flooded with negative financial news. One of the few bright colors.

However, the Bluestar Technology Group's new product launch conference not only failed to boost the stock price, but fell even worse.

Originally, the current stock market is chattering, and Bluestar Technology spent $500 million for an advertising film, and did not choose to return a little cost in movie theaters. This kind of prodigal behavior can hardly be seen by investors.

Investors are upset, and stocks fall, seemingly reluctant to say in the past...

The current market value of Bluestar Technology Group has fallen from US$207.1 billion at its peak to US$179.8 billion, but it still ranks second only to Microsoft among listed IT companies.

In fact, every company is falling. Google has fallen to US$150 billion and was overtaken by Intel, but Intel is also falling, and Microsoft has also fallen below the US$300 billion mark.

In short, this is the current market phenomenon.

However, this does not hinder the recent popularity of Bluestar Technology Group in the world. The "virtual idol" Hatsune Miku has also swept the world with this wave. The intersection of multiple factors made this newly born IP quickly become popular all over the world.

The three versions of the feature film and behind-the-scenes production highlights of the promotional film "Hatsune Miku: In the Name of Love" have also landed on the domestic version of Bluestar Video and the international version of BluestarVideo. From the work itself to outside the work, it has become a hot topic among netizens in various countries The target audiences include nearly 500 million US dollars of exaggerated production funding, the story itself, Hatsune Miku, virtual idols, movie producers delayed by IT business, etc.

There are too many topics to discuss.

After the film came out, it was included in the Internet movie database IMDB website. More than 180 people participated in the evaluation, and the score was as high as 9.4 points, which was almost unanimously praised. Director Anno Hideaki also caught fire.

This is the first film in history to be shot for advertising, the most expensive film in history, the behind-the-scenes footage, the special effects team, the scale of thousands of people involved, etc., are all talked about by people.

This zero-box office movie has also established an unprecedented monument to an animated movie, and even some filmmakers have come out to comment. This movie may not necessarily be surpassed by a second work after ten years. If there is, it may be. Is it a sequel to this work?

Because no one or the second company would make such a crazy move, only Bluestar Technology Group dares to be such a prodigal.

The focus and enthusiasm of all these are constantly pushing the popularity of Hatsune Miku to a new height. Through this film, Hatsune Miku quickly became a fan of crazy fans around the world, and the movie’s theme song "With Love "The Name" and the supermodel's magical background music "The Song of Onions".

It seems that it is so simple in Bluestar Technology and Luo Sheng to create explosive models and detonate the world's attention and attention.

...

In Akihabara, Tokyo, the demo hall will be opened to the public after the press conference.

The fans and spectators who came to the scene to participate in the press conference immediately came to the next door after the press conference ended. At the moment, the gate of the trial hall was crowded with people.

Basically all are fat houses...

Happiness is over.

Finally, the main entrance of the demo hall slowly opened and officially opened to the public, looking forward to the orderly entry of the dead houses into the conference hall.

"Wow, super kawaii~~"

Just entering the hall, Hatsune Miku’s one-to-one wax sculpture greeted everyone’s eyes. Wearing headphones, a square red headband, blue-green double pupils and elegant and slender double ponytails, Hatsune Miku seemed to come to reality from the world of movies. Is it a joke to spend more than two million to build it?

All the details are full, almost exactly the same.

It is real, but the real here is the image of the target movie world, but the real person, because Bluestar Technology has focused on the details of the "Uncanny Valley Effect", and has spent a lot of thought to avoid this effect.

The spectators who came here immediately took photos wildly, and the dead house saw this petite, cute and cool princess, and couldn't wait to smash the glass and snatch it home.

The demo hall was very popular in just a few moments. The demo area was full of seats. There was a large group of people waiting in line to watch. There were also a large number of people visiting. The one-to-one ratio Hatsune Miku has always been with "her". Take a group photo.

...

During the opening period of the next week, the popularity here is full every day, and with the passage of time, Hatsune Miku's popularity in Japan and even the world spread rapidly.

After the press conference, Bluestar Technology’s "virtual idol" plan also launched the second round of publicity. That night, a group of people were rushing to work quickly. On the second day, Hatsune Miku appeared in crowded spots throughout Tokyo. Cute and cool image.

The local Sankei Shimbun reported:

[Hatsune Miku captured the entire Tokyo overnight, and you can see the petite and cool ponytail super kawaii girl in subways, squares, bulletin boards and other places.]

Many people can't believe that Hatsune Miku will actually come to the big eastern country next door, and as soon as Hatsune Miku was launched, it immediately became extremely popular in this animation country.

A proper C debut.

All kinds of advertisements are not limited to Tokyo, they are found all over the world, and New York’s Times Square also appeared in her figure.

People in the industry have all felt the determination and ambition of Bluestar Technology Group to push this IP.

There are too many topics about Hatsune Miku during this time.

...

In the morning of the next day, Luo Sheng’s trip to Japan was also coming to an end. The press conference was held in Akihabara very successfully. The launch of Hatsune Miku gave the company unprecedented influence and popularity in the Japanese market. It was far less than now.

Fame, fame and fortune, fame comes first and then gains. With popularity, it’s hard to imagine the future.

Japan is, no matter what, a developed country with a population of over 100 million, and it is now the second largest economy in the world after the United States.

After the press conference, Luo Sheng was invited to an interview with "Japan Sankei Shimbun". As the super richest man in Asia today and a supernova who shines in the science and technology world, he finally came here. The local mainstream media sent Luo Sheng an interview invitation.

At about 15:00 local time, Luo Sheng, who was invited, went to the studio of "Japan Sankei Shimbun" and returned to China after the interview.

The work here is basically done. As for the rest, the branch of the group company in Japan will take over the work here.

The layout of the studio is quite simple. Qin Weimu and other people from his company who came with Luo Sheng are in the seating area of ​​the studio, but interview footage will not appear, and they will not speak.

The interview with Luo Sheng was a short-haired female host who was very beautiful and capable.

"Hello, Mr. Luo Sheng, thank you very much for being here today." The hostess smiled and said, only she and Luo Sheng were in the camera, and both parties communicated in English, so there is no need for translators on both sides.

"Thank you very much for inviting me." Luo Sheng sat down in the guest seat and responded politely.

To be honest, if the other party speaks Japanese, Luo Sheng will substitute into another scene consciously or unconsciously. The habit is terrible, and the subconscious has long been used to nature. The sense of substitution is too strong, and he should be afraid that he cannot change it. pretty good.
