Chapter 1087 (1/2)
In the newly decorated and slightly luxurious cinema, Li Mu, together with Fang Xudong and the key technicians of muying system, tested this extremely innovative online ticket system.
Before the test, Fang Xudong first introduced to Li Mu the terminal of the muying system - muying self-service ticket machine.
In this movie theater, there are four self-service ticket machines. The height of the ticket machine is about 1.8 meters, which is no different from the shape design of the ticket machine after the maturity of online tickets in the previous life. The whole machine is made of black plexiglass, and the most striking one on the front is the 17 inch positive screen display. After the system is started by default, some displays of the pastoral film system will be displayed continuously Material;
at the bottom of the screen, there is an input area similar to the password keyboard of the bank ATM machine. In addition to the ten numbers from 0 to 9, this area also has the most striking ”pick up” button, the ”confirm” button, the ”delete” button and the ”return” button.
On the right side of the keyboard area is the ticket exit, where the printed movie tickets will be vomited out after the ticket collection is completed;
unfortunately, because the touch screen technology is not mature and reliable enough, the first generation of terminal ticket machine did not adopt the touch technology, so Li Mu and Fang Xudong designed the first generation of ticket machine, and carried out the most efficient ticket collection process To a large extent.
First of all, as long as the system is powered on, the user presses the ”pick up ticket” button in the keyboard area, and the input option of the pick-up ticket code will be directly displayed, while the initial stage of the pick-up ticket code is tentatively determined as a random eight digit number. After the user presses the ”pick up ticket” button, the user directly enters the eight digit pick-up ticket code, and clicks ”confirm”, and the information confirmation page will be entered. In this page, the number, time, and time of the movie purchased by the user will be displayed The basic information, such as seats and quantity, is confirmed to be correct. After the user clicks ”confirm”, the movie ticket can be printed.
Because the system is very simple, and the hardware is over configured, the system's fluency is very high, almost no jamming phenomenon, so the user's fluency experience is not worse than that of the touch screen;
moreover, because the physical keyboard uses a more stable and high-end metal keyboard than the ATM, the leather is durable, the touch is clear, and the input is smooth, and the user is more than a dozen The ticket can be collected in 20 seconds.
Fang Xudong introduced to Li Mu: ”Mr. Li, our ticket machine uses IBM hardware, which has strong overall reliability. In addition, the thermal paper used in the printing part is more convenient for maintenance. A specially customized ticket paper roll can print 10000 movie tickets, and it is very simple to change the ticket paper. A person can complete the change in two minutes.”
Li Mu nodded and asked him, ”what is the manufacturing cost of the first generation ticket machine?”
”At present, we have customized 100 sets to the factory, and the cost of each set is about 23000 yuan, of which the cost of mold opening is relatively high. If we continue to customize later, the cost will be lower and lower, and finally it should be reduced to within 20000 yuan,” Fang said
Li Mu said, ”we have 14 cinemas. Are each equipped with four ticket machines?”
”That's right.” Fang Xudong said: ”at present, the ticket machines of our 14 cinemas have been installed, all of which are equipped with four ticket machines. Now the factory has sent out the last 20 ticket machines, and we are preparing to continue to place orders. You have to order this quantity.”
Li Mu nodded and said, ”talk to the factory. If there is no problem with the testing of this batch of machines, we will book 5000 sets for the second batch, and confirm with them several key points, one is time, the other is price, and there is after-sales support.”
”Five thousand?!” Fang Xudong was shocked and said, ”Mr. Li, this purchase order alone is over 100 million!”
”It doesn't matter if it's over 100 million.” ”What we need next is to occupy all the cinemas in the country quickly. What can we occupy without terminal hardware?” said Li Mu
Said, Li Mu added: ”if we want to play, we need to play a big hand. From the beginning, let others know that this thing burns money, they can't play.”
Fang Xudong nodded: ”I understand president Li.”
Li Mu then said, ”test the whole process of buying and taking tickets.”
”You come here, we have a computer ready at the ticket window. You can experience the ticket system and see the background system of cinema sales management,” Fang said
Li Mu follows Fang Xudong to the ticket counter of the cinema. Several IBM commercial machines have entered the cinema sales management background of muying, while another IBM notebook has entered the system homepage of muying on YY network.
