Volume 1, First Pot of Gold, Chapter 757, Penglai City Opens!

Next chapter

There was a little rain in the sky, but the wind blowing on the sea was not ordinary. The rolling waves crashed on the side of the boat, the water splashed wantonly on the bow of the boat, and the staff wore raincoats and carried cameras in front, while the reporters stood on the bow of the boat even harder, holding the railing with one hand and the microphone in the other, bringing first-hand news to the audience in front of the TV.

"Now, behind us is the legendary city of Penglai. You may not be able to see it, because we are about 15 nautical miles away from the nearest port! Look at the black dot, now we can see the spire of the Central Building in Penglai City. Transwarp Trade's coast guard ships have temporarily blocked this area, and the blockade will be lifted at 12 o'clock at noon, when our reporter will bring you further coverage......"

His face was blown red, but there was no temperature at all. After shouting the last word, Lu Xiao wiped a handful of water droplets on his face. With weak legs, she walked down the bow of the boat with the help of the staff.

Back in the cabin, Li Hanliang, the veteran leader of the interview team, came over and handed her a bottle of mineral water.

"Xiaoxiao, thank you for your hard work. ”

"It's not hard!" Lu Xiao finally regained some of his spirits and returned to his youthful face, "Team Leader Li, has Transwarp Trade agreed to our application?"

Li Hanliang shook his head, sighed, and sat down on the chair next to him.

"It's not easy, and they don't nod their heads no matter what I say. However, the other TV stations are the same, they do not take sides in this matter, and even their own Xinguo TV station is staying outside the sea area of the blockade zone. ”

Hearing this, Lu Xiao's expression couldn't help but be a little strange.

The boat next to it is a BBC reporter, and further away is Columbia TV, so that so many media can rent a boat to wait, and this future group is also face-saving.

Time passed quickly, and it was noon in a short time, and the coast guard ship also gave a green light.

After receiving the news of the contact blockade, the cruise ships and dinghys gathered around Penglai City began to move forward, sailing towards the city known as a miracle.

Standing on the helicopter and looking down, the scene of boats dragging white wave marks and flocking to Penglai City from all directions is simply like a magnificent picture! According to the statistics of the Tourism Bureau, the number of people who applied for the first batch of landing on the island is as high as 127,000, and the total number of small and small ships in the target sea area exceeds 9,000!

On the other side, a luxurious medium-sized cruise ship also moved slowly, carrying passengers visiting Penglai City.

The weather on the sea changed quickly, it was still raining for the first two hours, and now the sun is out, and the deck is hot in a few moments. Dressed in beach casual clothes, Wei Wendong stood at the bow of the cruise ship, looking in the direction of Penglai City, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook up a smile of expectation.

That was Penglai City, the spectacle he had seen in the virtual world......

As for what the city will be like in this world, it can be said that he is full of expectations.

In the days after the year, the A2 season of the god-level continent ended, and the royal guild won the first place in individual competition and the fifth place in the group stage in one fell swoop! In order to celebrate his victory, the sponsor directly gave him a red envelope of 20 million RMB.

Is it a lot? Not much, actually.

Not to mention the number of players who are the first in the world in the god-level continent, due to the popularity of virtual reality online games and the spectacle of the explosion, even many people who don't play games have put on their helmets to apply for tourist seats and watched this large-scale event broadcast live around the world.

According to the official figures given by Futureman Technology, not counting the ratings broadcast by those TV stations, the peak number of viewers of the live broadcast of the arena exceeded 290 million!

What is the concept of 290 million? The number of viewers for the post-game broadcast will have to at least double!

Come to think of it, the average number of viewers per game in the NBA peaked at just over 20 million. Winners in the individual and group stages are allowed to put the sponsor's logo on the back of their name. It is self-evident how high the commercial value of being able to insert your own logo in such a scary event and make your company show its face in front of hundreds of millions of people around the world.

Wei Wendong didn't know how much money the sponsor gave them to the union afterwards, he only knew that the number would not be less than 500 million soft girl coins.

After the game, the royal union directly chartered a whole luxury cruise ship and brought the core members of the whole guild to a forced offline party!

Clicked on the uture phone rolled up on his wrist, and a palm-sized holographic screen suddenly unfolded above his wrist. took a photo of the vista of Penglai City, looking at the city on the screen, and letting the sea breeze rub his hair, Wei Wendong's smile couldn't help but bring a little spirit.

Last year, he bought two properties in Penglai City, a two-level apartment with a purchase restriction and a four-level apartment with no purchase limit. At that time, he was still a little sore when he photographed these two houses, and he directly let him save half of the two houses, but now he only regrets why he didn't spend the other half in the first place.

With the completion of Penglai City, the rumor of impossible completion went bankrupt, and in less than a month, the price of the two houses in his hands has doubled, and even has a tendency to double again.

Soon, the cruise ship docked in the harbor of Penglai City.

On all four sides of the artificial island, there are thousands of large and small harbors, as well as private and public boathouses with free access, and although the scene of more than 9,000 ships approaching is spectacular, it is not crowded when landing on the island.

As advertised, the whole city is imbued with that sci-fi feel of being at the forefront of its time. Billboards, shop signs, and large screens on the rooftops of shopping malls all use holographic technology produced by Future People Group.

Putting on the AR glasses he took from the customs, the cute navigation elf Xiaoyu appeared in his hand after a long absence. Flying around him a few times mischievously, Xiaoyu flew in front of him and, at his request, walked with him to the property he had purchased.

As he walked, Xiaoyu answered his questions in a chattering voice, introducing him to the information of Penglai City.

Such realistic augmented reality technology even made it a little unclear to him whether this was virtual or real.

On both sides of the street, all kinds of shops are open. The staff of the mall, restaurant and service industry, who had been allowed to enter early, had already landed on the island yesterday and packed up their stores in time for the first day of the city's opening.

There are few vehicles on the streets, and people mostly walk. However, Penglai City's transportation is well planned, and the twelve suspension train rail transit lines buried on the basement floor allow tourists to reach any part of the city in 10 minutes.

In addition, it is said that magnetic rails were buried at the beginning of the construction of the city's roads, and when the future of the people's heavy industries makes a breakthrough in the maglev vehicle technology, the city's traffic will move from a flat to a three-dimensional ......

Thinking of this, Wei Wendong couldn't help but faintly look forward to it.

Filled with so many cutting-edge technologies, living in such a city, such a life will definitely not be boring...... (To be continued.) )
