Cloud computing-the fantasy drift of juvenile pie

After 4 years, director Ang Lee's "juvenile fantasy Drifting" finally long-awaited began, after the film by virtue of the perfect 3D effect, dazzling visual spectacle and shocking story in the New York Film Festival was praised. Members of the new panel said that this seemingly fairy-tale fantasy adventure story is actually an exploration of human nature. the Ang Lee shot "teen pi" spent four years with 120 million dollars, (versus "Avatar" spent 12 years with 450 million dollars.) A film, which is adapted from one of the most unlikely novels, has only one Indian teenager and one Tiger, 70% filmed and produced in Taiwan. Most of it is in Taichung's abandoned airport water 湳 airport shooting for Taiwan created 16000 jobs and 600,000 working hours. 90% of the scenes are on the water, more than 90% of the large number of animation, the success of the entire movie alive; However, the most important animation behind the core engine, relying on the Chinese telecom's 200-person cloud computing team.

The Chiyu flying Fish jumped out of the water to hit the lens is really shocking eyeball, tiger and juvenile "faction" confrontation also began to take shape, exciting. A wonderful picture of the scene shook the global audience. Bangladesh national Tiger lifelike reaction, but let r&h animation team to eat enough, just tiger body tens of thousands of fur, sent out up to 15 special effects division. Some of their studios are in Vancouver, Canada, and some are stationed in India, Los Angeles, and in tandem with the powerful engine of all animators ' projects, hidden in Taiwan's China Telecom.

At the end of 2011, "juvenile pi" shot into the end, Ang Lee in order to shoot all the pictures, has spent three years, the film company budget less and more animation effects to do more and more. " To complete the film there must be a different approach. So in the recommendation of Ang Lee, investors r&h quietly look for the same has a dream of the Wen-Hai chairman of the son of Mr Gou Guo Shouzheng.

R&h animation studio distribution around the world, often a complete animation, it is necessary to transfer to the R&H headquarters in the United States Hollywood, and filming good clips to do splicing, a tiger roar of the lens, the blue whale jump screen, it will take several months to carry out.

If these things can be done on the same "big" table, things will get easier. In the age of globalization, r&h animation special effects personnel can be distributed in several countries, although network series, but do things still like in different time and space.

Hon Hai has cloud technology, if Hon Hai can help r&h, the distribution in all parts of the world's studios, moved to the same "on the Cloud table", you can directly compress the waste day time-consuming animation transfer and production time.

However, Hon Hai's cloud technology is mostly in the hardware, if you can not develop the software itself, the cost can not be down. At the same time, in order to find the ideal solution, r&h not only focus on Taiwan, but also the Korean and American operators of the platform, it is understood that after abandoning Hon Hai, through the presidential office of Ma Ying-jeou to let them find China Telecom.

And the key killer of China Telecom? That's the important heart virtuoso that has invested 200 engineers and spent three years developing. In other words, each set of cloud system, need a core operating platform, with a professional point of terminology, called "bottom", China Telecom's cloud operating platform virtuoso, is such a role.

In the past, has the ability, has the strength to develop the operating platform, is not Microsoft, the Google, the Apple, is the cloud company VMware. Before r&h with China Telecom, half of all cloud software came from VMware.

With the stereotype of China Telecom's semi public, outsiders think they can make a platform, it should be very yangchun, but the industry revealed that China Telecom this platform, even Quanta also pay, in Canton to sell customers in the cloud cabinet, built in the Chinese telecom software ...

Virtuoso not only low prices, the focus is fast service, before the foreign cloud to buy products, just want to add a function, fast one season, slow half a year, to complete. Therefore, the manufacturers of cloud products are not highly customized.

But China Telecom does not have this baggage: one, China Telecom in the global cloud industry, the signboard is not big, compared to foreign first-line manufacturers, the price is not the same space; Secondly, virtuoso development flexibility, can provide a high degree of customer-made, more able to serve small and medium-sized enterprises, Plus China Telecom also has network bandwidth to support, more advantages than one.

So when Ang Lee came knocking at the door with R&H President Relaxation (John Hughes), it was like digging a treasure. Because prior to this, r&h every place to open a studio, starting from the animation infrastructure investment, the initial cost of up to NT $200 million, the current R&H Global six studios, will have to invest 1.2 billion NT, plus the cost of network costs, the annual investment is very substantial, The cost of time is too large to count. China Telecom has in the shortest possible time provided an inexpensive platform to integrate R&h Street all over the studio.

In "Juvenile pi" on this day of the morning ten, R&H President Relaxation (John Hughes) and China Telecom Chairman Lu study Kam signed a memorandum of cooperation, in their joint report card, R&H will continue to overweight, riding on the cloud of China Telecom. " When the Hollywood 3D animated blockbuster meets Taiwan Telecom company, what kind of sparks will be wiped out? "Young pi" will know.
