Chapter 849: It's dark to the end

The sound of passionate music rang out, suppressing some of the noisy voices in the lower hall.

After checking his equipment one last time, Atletico walked briskly onto the podium.

"Ladies and gentlemen, friends on the scene and online, welcome to the new product launch of Bee Games! I am Atletico Madrid, and I hope that you will be pleasantly surprised by the new products brought this time. ”

He said this sentence in Chinese, but it was the language they had just preset that came to the ears of audiences in various countries, and the pronunciation was none other than Atletico himself. Everyone looked at each other, and they didn't need to communicate much to know what was going on, and they were shocked and amazed by the bee's simultaneous interpretation technology.

On the podium, Atletico Madrid took in the scene, his face was silent, but his heart was very proud.

Language is full of ambiguity and meaning, and there are usually many default consensuses, subtexts, and unfinished meanings mixed in, and relying on current technology cannot perfectly guarantee that the latter three will not be lost or changed in the translation process.

The bees' "simultaneous interpretation system" can do this perfectly because it is Atletico themselves who really do the work. Preparing multilingual speeches in advance, and then using E7U to achieve "pseudo-multitasking", Atletico successfully became their own translator, and the work seemed to be fruitful, and everyone in the audience in the town was stunned.

This is exactly what Atletico is aiming for, and he certainly has no intention of entering the field of simultaneous interpretation, but only to create an atmosphere of unclear black technology and set the tone for the upcoming press conference.

Bee Games chose to participate in the TGS Tokyo Game Show with great fanfare, not only for reasons of time schedule, but also related to the black technology complex of consumers in island countries. They are more receptive to novelty products, and the bees come to occupy the pit in advance.

Occupy the pit is actually a technical job, selling immature products to customers, it is possible to take the lead, or it may become a martyr, the key is to leave the user's mental image is constantly improving or terrible.

Microsoft has the most say in this regard, indos, released 31 years ago, still dominates desktop computers, but indosCE, released 20 years ago, has been forgotten and latecomers have not developed well. According to the sales volume in the second quarter, Microsoft's mobile phone system share fell again, falling to a dangerous situation of 0.4%.

On the contrary, the share of the bee system has risen slightly, and with the launch of third-party small bee mobile phones and the increase in the production capacity of the new flagship B1, it is not impossible to break through 4% by the end of the year. There is still a big and no small gap between the numbers and the top two Android and iOS, but it is not as big as before, which can bring more confidence to users and third-party collaborators.

In particular, the P camp manufacturers regard BP as the only choice for jumping ship, Apple doesn't want them, Android is too cheap, and of course they can only defect to bees. The fast-moving ones have already launched new products, and more manufacturers will have to wait until CES and MC a few months later.

Putting aside these popping up thoughts, Atletico continued: "First of all, allow me to invite a few small guests to meet you. ”

"Welcome Jesse Kadarin!"

A blonde loli jumped up and ran onto the podium.

"Welcome Yoko Kaga!"

This time it was a black-haired little girl from an island country who ran up.

"And Wang Xiaofei!"

The last one to run up was Wang Xiaofei, a child who had appeared in the past. The three of them were wearing T-shirts and shorts or hakakas, helmets covering their eyes, and black leg exoskeletons on their legs.

As the three of them ran with small steps, the plastic footboards hung with glue slapped the floor, making a "clang" footsteps, and the sound was amplified by the sound system, transmitted to the ears of everyone present, and hit their bodies, shocking the audience's eardrums and hearts.

Children's eyes are obscured by helmets with a sci-fi feel, and below the crotch are powered exoskeletons, countless small parts are connected and combined, seemingly bulky but full of power, bringing people a unique beauty that belongs to machinery and industry, and what is even more surprising is their performance.

Looking over, you can see that the three children's legs are obviously distorted, atrophied or even missing, obviously they are all poor children with disabled legs. And they were able to run again, of course, thanks to the power exoskeleton on their bodies.

After the three children stood beside him, Atletico continued: "The dynamic exoskeleton must be familiar to everyone. Even if you don't have the opportunity to touch military and engineering exoskeletons, you must have used them in the game. ”

In response to him, of course, there was uneven laughter.

This is a special press conference held by a game company, and the people who come are either media reporters, industry insiders, die-hard players, and active anchors, all of whom have a more or less relationship with the game industry, and are certainly no strangers to the category of science fiction games.

The power exoskeleton is the same as the holographic display, which can be called the standard configuration of science fiction stories, and everyone naturally has an impression of it, even if you don't know the Thor armor on the Spartan warrior, the NBC protective armor on the interstellar machine gunner, and the nano combat suit of Crysis, you should have seen Mr. Iron Man's Mark suit.

Compared to these fantasy mature armors, Atletico Madrid's current products are simply weak, not to mention attack, flight and NBC (nuclear/biological/chemical) attack protection, not to mention even the most basic strength enhancement.

But this is enough to make people amazing, no matter what, the bees have made a product that can be used, at least the smiles on the faces of the three children are not fake, after all, it is rare to have good acting skills at such a young age.

The only question is, what does this have to do with the game?

As if they had been caught in the ears of the chatter from the audience, Atletico smiled and explained: "Of course it has something to do with the game. First of all, the three core technologies of this system, exoskeleton, brain-computer interface, and simulated holographic display, are all by-products of our development of next-generation game technology. Secondly, this system is a gift to these children, allowing them to regain the fun of games that are rightfully theirs, such as snowball fights. ”

As the words fell, white snowflakes began to flutter in the air, which soon covered the stage and the audience, turning the entire venue into a snow-white world.

What is sprinkled in the air is not artificial snow, but virtual snowflakes generated by CG technology. Each guest was given a pair of bee glasses when they entered3, so they could naturally see these virtual elves, as well as the interaction of the three or four people on the podium.

After a snowball fight and a snowman, Atletico waved his hand and sent the three little guests down.

The snow melted quickly, the weeds grew rapidly, and the red, yellow, blue and purple flowers of various colors bloomed, and the petals flew like rain in the breeze, and then disappeared in an instant, and the real world returned to the eyes of everyone, which made people can't help but feel a trace of reluctance.

Noticing the expressions on the faces of the audience, the surrounding bee employees breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the hard work of preparing for two months before, and working overtime to measure the site and debug the lights was worth it. Simulated holographic is not a real holographic after all, in order to develop its strengths and avoid weaknesses, and make up for the lack of technology, the bees have really done a lot of work, and then they have the highlight of the three minutes just now.

Atletico slowed down his tone and said in a deep voice: "Jesse lost her mother and a foot in the war, although we can't give her back, we can make her run again." Yoko and Xiaofei also lost the right to stand and walk due to other accidents, but fortunately we helped them get these back, although it was not perfect. ”

Such a correct thing should of course be applauded by everyone.

Next, the fifth phase of the Dream Realization Project will find 20 children with leg injuries around the world and give them free children's exoskeleton products, hoping to bring back the fun of running and jumping and playing games. ”

The applause rang out again, and it lasted for a long time.

When the conference hall was quiet again, Atletico pointed to the air beside him and introduced the principle of the system.

With analog holographic glasses, the projection screen behind you is idle, and the content can be displayed directly in front of the audience's eyes, and it also comes with multi-Chinese translation.

This part didn't take much time, and soon he moved on to the next part, inviting everyone to enjoy the robot fighting competition.

The staff pushed over a small trolley with a specially designed small fighting ring, surrounded by LED lights, which brought a lot of light pollution and perfectly rendered the warm atmosphere of the fighting competition.

Then two island boys walked up to the stage, each opened the suitcase in his hand, took out the fighting robot from it and put it in the ring.

Atletico Madrid, who made a temporary cameo as a referee, stood next to him and shouted: "Ready?Fight!"

He did not use Chinese in these two sentences, and felt that "ready, start!" was not bloody enough, on the one hand, and on the other hand, it was also to pay tribute to those classic FTG fighting games, so he specially changed his accent and learned a unique Japanese pronunciation.

Compared with the previous Demo, this version of the robot has been replaced with the character shape in "Remote Control Machine King", and the fighting actions and skills have also been revised according to the original comics, coupled with the special effects of the glasses, it is very passionate and passionate, at least the two players on the field and the Chinese and Japanese guests in the audience are very excited and satisfied.

And the expressions on the faces of the European and American non-faces are much lighter, obviously they have not seen this manga or anime, and they are not very interested in toy robot fights.

"I expected it to be like this," Atletico was not in a hurry, and when the exhibition match was over, he introduced the identities of the two respectively: "They are game masters from the Tokyo Hero Building, Haroroku Watanabe and Sasaki Thunder Eagle, and what they are best at is playing games with their brains (in fact, the brain circuit is relatively close to Atletico Madrid, and it is easy to connect with the device). ”

The audience was stunned for a moment, and then reacted and laughed out loud, didn't they just play with their heads, didn't they see that the two of them didn't move a finger from front to back?

"Although the existing BMI technology still leaves a lot to be desired, and the brain-controlled gaming experience is not perfect, it is a great improvement from a few years ago, at least now we can eliminate fishing and playing small balls to drill holes. ”

By the way, he hacked the competitor and cut the opponent's immature early products and brain-controlled games, and Atletico continued: "So, Bee Games specially invited the two of them to demonstrate various brain-controlled games during TGS. ”

This is also the tone set by Bee Game for this exhibition, in the past, when others played 3D, they showed VR, and now others have also started to engage in VR, but they have come up with brainwave control technology, which is to use the generation difference to bully people.

"In view of the fact that European and American players may be unfamiliar with the work of "RC Robot", we also have a brain-controlled game specially prepared for you. Please enjoy the performance brought to you by Haroroku Watanabe and Raitaka Sasaki. ”

While he was talking, the staff had already stepped up to the stage, pushed the original trolley down, and replaced it with a new one.

The new trolley also has a flat plate on it, but the style has changed from a ring to a cartoon-style children's floor. The audience was still a little puzzled, but when the suitcase was opened and the new robot was put on the stage, the audience suddenly resounded with cheers of "ooooo!"

The round white astronaut standing on the left side of the platform is the famous "Cosmic Detective" Buzz Lightyear, and the purple robot on the other side is his nemesis, King Sock.

The battle between the two is replaced by a different style of painting, full of humor and childlike play, as well as paying homage to the details of the film. Bass's right-arm laser projector, left-arm communicator, and behind-the-back aircraft have all been well restored, and the effect is only weaker than in the movie.

Although it has been 21 years since the first film of the series was released, the influence of "Toy Story" in the world should not be underestimated, which can be seen in the sudden high atmosphere in the hall.

"You get what you pay for, it seems that this money has not been spent in vain," Atletico nodded secretly, and the heartache was much lighter.

Compared with Rouwangmaru, which is only slightly famous in East Asia, Buzz Lightyear is obviously more well-known, and Disney asks for a lot more adaptation licensing fees. Although Bee and them are also old friends, and the other party is preparing "Toy Story 4" to deliberately warm up the market, deliberately gave a preferential price, but still set a new record for the licensing fee of Bee Games.

Of course, this money can't be saved, and the bee is still counting on rubbing the popularity of the new movie and selling him a million head rings.

After the second exhibition match, Atletico Madrid sent off the two performers and began to really introduce today's protagonist: BGD brain-computer interface game equipment. The core is naturally a brain electrode hood equipped with a brain-computer interface, and then divided into two sub-series: the H-series with holographic lenses, and the S-series with only a voice interface.

Although the former has an excellent experience, the cost is too expensive, and it is estimated that it is difficult to promote it. Considering this situation, the development team tentatively came up with a simplified S series, and the display function even had to be solved with a VR box, and the experience was naturally greatly reduced.

The product has not yet been finalized, and Atletico Madrid have not announced the price. Soon he ended the press conference, giving journalists and bloggers time to write and blog.
