180,000 for 5 kicks? What kind of screen is this? It's so expensive! Is there gold in the screen? [Copy link]

 

On May 1, a child in Dongguan, Guangdong ran to the screen and kicked and hit it when the movie was over, causing damage to the screen.

Dongguan police have recently reported that the police have contacted the guardian of the child involved. The public security authorities are actively guiding the cinema and the child's guardian to properly resolve the issue through legal procedures. Currently, the incident is still under further investigation.

Cinema: There are dents and damages, the screen must be replaced

Regarding the online rumor that "the naughty child kicked the child five times and the parents need to compensate the cinema 180,000 yuan, 36,000 yuan for each kick", the theater staff responded that this statement is a rumor.

But the screen was damaged and had to be replaced. "There was already a dent and damage, which affected the normal movie playing. There would be cracks when playing movies."

When interviewed, the theater staff said that the screen must be replaced

The rumor that the parents had to pay 180,000 yuan in compensation is true, but the screen is the Dolby Atmos CGS China Giant Screen, which is about the same price.

So why is a screen so expensive? Watch the video to find out

• How is a movie screen hung?

On March 16, a cinema in Chongqing replaced an imported IMAX giant screen with a similar size to the damaged screen in the Dongguan cinema. You may want to follow the reporter to experience the replacement process of this giant screen.

On the evening of March 15, the new IMAX screen from Canada was transported to the shopping mall where the cinema was located by a special container vehicle, and the cinema replaced the screen on the morning of the 16th.

A tightly packed double-layer wooden box more than 14 meters long was carefully carried into the theater. Because the screen was too long and could not be folded, a hole had to be opened in the wall of the IMAX theater before entering the theater.

In order to ensure the viewing effect in the later stage, the screen cannot be folded, which requires that the screen with an area of more than 300 square meters must be completely spread out and placed on the seats in the theater before it can be hoisted. In order to prevent scratches, thick plastic sheets are laid on the seats in the first dozen rows.

Then the staff put iron pipes on the top of the screen, tied ropes, and then pulled the ropes together to hang the screen steadily. After adjusting the two sides of the screen and measuring the light of the projector, a brand new IMAX screen with a metallic luster finally appeared in front of people. The whole process took five or six hours.

What are Dolby and IMAX?

When buying movie tickets, there are IMAX theaters, 3D theaters, CGS China Giant Screen, Dolby Cinema, etc., and the prices are different. Here is a brief introduction to several theaters:

>>>>IMAX

The IMAX (Image Maximum, i.e. giant screen movie) movie projection system has advanced technology, rich film sources, and a standard screen of 22 meters wide and 16 meters high.

Compared with traditional films, IMAX has higher resolution, larger screen, more three-dimensional sound effects, and more shocking movie effects for the audience. Of course, the cost is also higher.

>>>> 3D Movies

Everyone should know about 3D movies. As long as you wear 3D glasses, you can see the three-dimensional effect of the movie, which can create an immersive feeling for the viewers.

>>>>CGS China Giant Screen

China Giant Screen is a movie playback system developed by China itself, which is very similar to IMAX. The biggest difference between it and IMAX is that China Giant Screen still uses traditional 35mm film, so its production cost is cheap and cost-effective, and it is a low-profile version of IMAX.

>>>> Dolby Cinema

Compared with IMAX, the visual effect of Dolby Cinema is slightly worse, but the contrast, clarity and brightness are better than other theaters. In addition, the sound channels and surround sound of Dolby Cinema are three-dimensional, so those who pay attention to sound enjoyment can choose Dolby Cinema.

Okay, now you almost understand what the screens are. IMAX should be the most expensive. You should know the price before you play. It should start at at least tens of thousands.

I didn't expect it to be so expensive, and if one piece is damaged you have to replace the whole piece.

Are they a mother and daughter? They are jumping around, the big one doing that, the small one doing that, with surveillance cameras everywhere, being this famous is really too...

You can take the broken one home and use it as a projection screen to play cartoons for your children.

Haha, this is a good idea, but 180,000 is a bit expensive to buy a screen

If it is really fragile equipment

Cinemas have a responsibility to inform audiences

Of course, the audience should also be obliged to abide by the rules of the theater

I totally agree. After watching the video, I think they should be punished. Let parents and children learn a lesson.

In the end, I still don’t know how much this screen costs, but I feel it is not cheap.

It seems that they are two people of similar age, but the one behind is obviously reserved.

So it’s good to be less reserved.

Hahaha

Yes, things are expensive before mass production. As long as there are no competing products in the industry, the price can be as high as it wants.
