Chapter 2 Press Conference

"Ladys and gentleman, our company is proud to introduce you to another new milestone in the history of human gaming, Second Life.

In Second Life, you can experience the life you want. You can set the age and living environment of the character you create, and enjoy another life in the game world by interacting with the most advanced AI and real players.

The game will bring more than 24,000 times the speed of time to the player's brain, which is 8 hours in the real world, and will be able to experience it in the game world for 22 years.

Here are a few of the main game rules:

1. When creating a character, what you gain is proportional to what you lose, which means that if you want to gain more, you will lose more.

2. If the player dies in the game, the player will be automatically logged out of the game.

3. In the game, you cannot inform AI or other real players of their player identity in any form, so as not to disturb the order of the world in the game, and once found, the company will be blacklisted, and you are not allowed to enter the game again.

4. Within 1 hour of entering the game world, that is, about 3 years in the game world, the brain will be in a state of temporary amnesia due to the influence of time speed, and then it will slowly recover the memory in reality. But time acceleration doesn't have any other side effects on the brain.

5. The game world also has the laws and regulations of the game world, and players will be subject to corresponding restrictions after entering the game, and if there is any illegal behavior, they will also be punished in the game.

6. Once the game is entered, it is not possible to log out and log in again at will.

7. After the end of the game, the screen recorded by the public monitoring of the internal world of the game will be announced to the public, but the player's perspective will not be announced without the consent of the player, and the image of the player in the game is also automatically generated according to the player's requirements, which has nothing to do with his own image, and the player can rest assured that he can enjoy another life in the game without causing any privacy leakage.

The game will tentatively be opened every Saturday at 11 p.m. Beijing time, and players can enter the game at the company's designated location, under the arrangement and monitoring of the staff.

If you have any questions or problems, you can contact the staff through the contact information of the game company, and at this moment, the game officially starts to accept registration. ”

At the booth of the press conference, the company's executives and key personnel held a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the game equipment under the flash of the media, which was also the highlight moment that Chu Jun had dreamed of for many years. After the ribbon cutting, the company's executives accepted many questions from reporters, and Chu Jun also answered all the questions one by one with a voice that only he could hear. Even if you are not a professional, it is easy to hear that Chu Jun's answer is more professional and passionate than those that come out of the microphone.

After the question, Chu Jun turned around and listened to the applause and cheers still coming from the big screen behind him. He closed his eyes and enjoyed the glory that should have belonged to him as if he were there, but on the stage of the press conference, there was no place for him for a long time.

When he opened his eyes again, Chu Jun smiled, he walked to the fountain pool in the middle of the square, gently placed a leaf broken from the gate on the water surface of the fountain, and watched the leaves sway up and down with the waves in the pool, and he just looked at the leaves stupidly and smiled.

"Brother, what are you looking at so happy?" A little boy walked up to the side, and followed Chu Jun's gaze and saw the leaf in the water.

Chu Jun didn't pay attention to him.

"Look at my ......" Seeing that Chu Jun ignored him, the little boy was a little angry, muttered indignantly and softly, and stretched out his hand to make a splash.

The water splashed on the blades, eventually sinking them to the bottom.

Chu Jun couldn't stop the little boy next to him from playing a prank, but he couldn't see the little boy dancing happily. He stepped forward and glared at the little boy viciously and reached out to push him.

"Ouch......" The little boy fell to the ground. The sound also attracted the little boy's mother.

"How can you bully a child as an adult?

If it was the little boy's father, Chu Jun would have been eager to fight with him, but unfortunately it was a woman, Chu Jun turned his head and continued to look at the leaves in the water.

"Is there something wrong with you?" the little boy's mother didn't mean to apologize when she saw the man who pushed her, she just stared at the pool, she picked up her son and patted the dust on the child's body, "You stay away from strangers in the future, especially this kind of person, who is like a psychopath." As he spoke, he quickly took the child and left.

Chu Jun smiled coldly, put his hand into the water and wanted to fish for the leaf, but the water was too deep. He stretched his entire arm in, but he still couldn't reach the blades in the water, and he didn't know how far his hands were from the blades. He crouched down and picked up the pebbles from the edge of the pool, and threw them in the direction of the blades, which splashed in the pool, staggered and finally pressed against the blades.

He glanced back at the big screen in the game company building again, the game conference had ended, and the screen began to scroll through the company introduction he had watched for many years, and the company gate was still crowded with reporters and security guards.

At this moment, Chu Jun is afraid that he will not even be able to enter the company's headquarters again.

Once the game was released, it became a global sensation. Even though a game is expensive, players who sign up for the game have been queuing up for more than a year to register.

Everyone has a variety of goals in mind, hoping to achieve them one by one in the game world. The pursuit of ideals, the desire for money, and the dissatisfaction with reality...... And so on, all kinds of complex emotions will be woven together with the personification of the player's highly consistent with the AI, what kind of new world will this create, and will the player finally get what he wants in the game world?

On Saturday night, the first group of open beta players signed an agreement on the premise of familiarizing themselves with the rules of the game, arrived at the game company's designated locations around the world two hours early, took auxiliary drugs under the arrangement of the staff, brought game equipment and monitoring equipment, and lay on comfortable beds to log in to the game.

Before logging in, players will set their prepared data: age after logging into the game, description of the living environment, family environment, social relations and other important information, waiting for the comprehensive matching of the game system. You will then be able to log in to the game at the same time at 11 p.m. sharp.

In less than an hour before the start of the game, players chatted with each other to ease their excitement, anticipation, and nervousness, and some remained silent and silently recited the overall plan after entering the game...... At the moment when the countdown reaches zero, the brains of the first batch of players are activated by the current at the same time, and they instantly feel that their eyes are blank, as if they have traveled through life and death and come to the game world......
