Chapter 151: The One Who Picks the Beam

After their in-depth research, there is indeed room for complementarity between the two technologies, because they are responsible for different contents, one is responsible for repairing, the other is responsible for blocking, and they need to cooperate before they are perfected. This one-plus-one may have a greater than two-to-two effect.

Then they exchanged each other's experiences, Meng Qian digested and compared each other's technology, David also quickly understood Meng Qian's concept, they are all smart people, simply refreshing, and reached a cooperation intention in a short period of time, specifically for the field of anti-aging.

It is impossible for the two technologies to work together completely, and anti-aging is only a small part of stem cell engineering, and it is also only a small piece of regenerative self-healing technology. But together they took out the "anti-aging" project separately, and the funds and technology of both sides accounted for 50% each, and a new company was established.

But at present, Meng Qian has no funds on hand.

Tiger has also been a little busy lately, and he has to go to other countries to handle official business.

Therefore, the plan to form a company has been postponed, but the project team members of both sides have begun to contact. For the anti-aging technology, exchange experience and experience, and then observe the other party's technology and how to deal with it...... Run in first, and when the company can be established, it will be up and running.

Meng Qian went home first and waited for the news of the second version of the VR glasses.

Along the way, he played games to pass the time. He is also interested in the affairs of game companies and wants to learn from some elements, such as "Call of Duty 11", which has just been launched, and now he is playing in the living room, with a 52-inch large display and the strongest PC, and the highest effect runs 4K.

Although the game console is convenient, if you want to experience this extreme picture, you have to use it on a PC. Use the best flagship-level graphics card on the market, and the two cards are firefighting. Fueled by 7.1 cinema-quality sound, the picture and sound experience is better than ever.

If based on these two points technically. What about the experience of virtual reality and simulated scenes?

The power of VR games is undeniable, and it will definitely make players who are completely tired of flat displays after the experience and turn to the virtual camp.

"Cool!" Meng Qian killed multiple enemies in one go, and the exoskeleton in the game is one of the symbols of near-future sci-fi, and the new VR game can be considered for reference.

"David." Rachel called him at this point.

"Huh?" Meng Qian was addicted, and the sound in the living room was very strong, and he couldn't hear what she was saying clearly. Until she walked in front of her.

"Oooh! Don't get in my way! Meng Qian turned his head anxiously to look at the screen.

"Stop!" Seeing that he was focused on the game, Rachel simply walked up to him and sat down, and then took off his shirt - Meng Qian's gaze swept over.

"What's the matter, cow?" Meng Qian was interested.

"I want to tell you something." "I have a cousin who wants to come to Los Angeles for a few days, and I want her to stay here for a while," she said. ”

Meng Qian didn't even think about it: "Whatever you arrange, there are many rooms here." ”

"You don't mind?" She was feeling a little abrupt.

"Am I such a stingy person?" Meng Qian in her chest. Gently stir it up on the chest, shaking and shaking.

"I'm here to play the game with you." She crawled over satisfied.

……

In fact, women can't play games well, and in the end they can only turn into action wars.

After putting her down. Meng Qian wiped the sweat from his body and continued to sit down to fight his high-level war...... At the same time, there are more and more ideas for VR games in my mind, futuristic elements, hot scenes, exciting combat experience and smooth plot. The combination will be a fire.

After finally passing the test, he called back a missed call.

Jim of VR Inc. Johnson answered, and he is now the head of the hardware development team. Inform him of a message: "The second edition of the glasses will be tested tomorrow." ”

"Okay, I'll be here tomorrow." Meng Qian was satisfied.

That's a good speed. Of course, it is also related to the technical difficulty and thinking rather than the process, such as the combination of multiple sets of lenses. The test is experience and understanding of the optical field, which may take years to explore, but Meng Qian opened a hook and easily got it.

The next day, Meng Qian packed his things and went to the airport.

Rachel didn't follow, she was going to pick up her cousin at the airport at noon. Meng Qian's attitude has always been very casual, anyway, he only takes what he needs. He didn't want to involve his career and his personal life, and he even decided to arrange for Rachel to live in Los Angeles to save him from colliding with Wang Manwen.

The messy private affairs are not listed for the time being, and the plane will arrive in 40 minutes.

The company's special car picked him up, and his subordinates flocked to the product laboratory and saw the second version of VR glasses.

Compared with the last time, it is lightweight and streamlined again, the requirement is to be able to put it into the lady's bag, and at the same time only reserve a few simple interfaces for sound and data, connect it to the computer host, run special software, that is, you can start VR applications, and enter the . into the virtual.

Meng Qian sat down and put on his glasses to experience.

Compared with the previous version, this version is more functional, and the collection of his head movements and eye movements is extremely accurate. At the same time, the understanding and accuracy of brainwave control have also improved, and even using brainwave control to type (English letters) is no problem.

"Sit tight." Jim held him up.

Although he has played the roller coaster game many times, the experience from different angles is comparable to the real scene, which still makes him sweat.

"No problem." Meng Qian said, "The next software." ”

"Shooter." Jim motioned for the assistant to switch.

For the experience of shooting games, Meng Qian used interactive equipment: somatosensory guns, force feedback and pulse current feedback components. It allows him to feel the recoil, fire, and impact of being hit by a bullet when fighting in the virtual world, which greatly improves the sense of immersion.

"Very good, gentlemen!" Meng Qian, who was immersed in the virtual, was satisfied, "The interface bug has finally been dealt with." ”

This bug refers to: the VR interface will rotate with the rotation of the head and eyeballs; In normal games, the muzzle (mouse) of the gun controlled by the player will also make the game interface rotate - when these two situations come together, the person looks to the right and the gun points to the left, which will cause vertigo.

This kind of vertigo is very serious, and many people vomit after holding it for a few minutes.

VR glasses now. Start with both hardware and software, and properly handle it.

After the experience. Meng Qian took off his glasses and nodded: "The glasses have been able to meet my expectations." Then do the beautification design, and use it to go to CES. ”

Jim. Johnson added: "The system software will be installed next week." ”

"Good." Meng Qian likes efficiency.

The development of the lab went very smoothly, and the rest of the time was to prepare for CES, and then wait until the three major technologies: equipment, software, and cloud services were perfected, and then the launch event could be held.

Those who have laughed and ridiculed VR companies will soon regret that VR companies have once again released some product data and concept images.

This time, there was no one-sided ridicule, and some people began to believe them, and a small number of fans were gathered, waiting and analyzing the possible effects.

But there are also some people who stand firmly on the position of "anti-VR companies". Think that this is just bragging, a scam brought by the Chinese, investors and banks will jump off the building sooner or later!

Considering the matter of publicity, Meng Qian needs to have someone who can really preside over the overall situation.

Meng Qian, who wears many hats and has to do research, is not up to the task, so he called his assistant Ralph: "You give me a list of high-level personnel and information about the department in charge." ”

He needs to find a good replacement.

Meng Qian spent two days getting acquainted with the company's management and found the bright spots.

One of the heads of the product department, John Brown. Yuan. He is of Chinese descent and his Chinese name is Yuan Yubo. A top student at Stanford University, recruited by headhunters.

The last time the company was sprayed and ridiculed by the outside world, it was when he made cruel words on social networks to "make an appointment", and someone really took the bait...... After this incident. Let the outside world re-evaluate the VR company, and carefully evaluate their technology, and there are many fewer trolls who follow the trend.

Meng Qian saw this person.

Yuan Yubo talked about his thoughts: "If there is something in the next five to ten years that can disrupt the global entertainment industry in the same way that Uber disrupts the global taxi industry. I think it's VR. ”

Meng Qian asked, "Then what areas do you think it can cover?" ”

"A lot." Yuan Yubo said, "I believe that Mr. Meng has a concept of common fields. I'll just talk about something special, like derivatives. ”

"Go on." Meng Qian looked forward to it.

"The experience in VR. It will be a paradise for derivatives sales. For example, the toys, T-shirts, and drinks inside, because of people's immersive experience, the experience of clothes, sofas, digital products, and cars are incomparable to flat displays, and the advertising benefits can be imagined. ”

"It's a novel angle." Meng Qian understood this, and then asked realistically: "If you were asked to be responsible for the promotion of the company's products in the future, what would you do?" ”

Yuan Yubo thought about it before saying, "I will split the experience of the device and the AI system, and CES only needs to show the device." ”

"As for AI systems, they are equally important, even newer, and not worth launching two heavyweights at the same time at CES."

"Taking artificial intelligence as the main event, leaving it at the product launch conference, combined with brand new equipment, will bring cooler and more desirable effects to the audience, and it will be more sticky to awareness publicity and users."

Meng Qian listened to his ideas, he was very far-sighted in technology, and he was also good at business strategy.

Looking at the information on the desktop, he is not very old at the age of thirty, but he has done a lot of efficient work not long after he arrived in the company...... After all the consideration, he made a decision.

Meng Qian said to him: "Mr. Yuan, I don't think your current position is suitable for your ability. ”

Yuan Yubo looked at him and didn't react.

"I'm going to move you to the consumer business unit and take on the CEO role." Meng Qian calmly said his decision and looked at him.

"Thank you, sir." Yuan Yubo reacted.

Meng Qian pinned some hope on him: "It is difficult for Chinese Americans to mix in the top of American companies, I hope you can change this situation and make achievements." ”

In the American society, the top positions of companies and enterprises are all monopolized by whites, and with the same effort, whites will inevitably climb higher. But there have been exceptions in recent years, such as Indian, and the current boss of the two major tech companies is of Indian origin (Microsoft, Google).

So Meng Qian felt that he also came from Asia, why can Indians be able to do it, but not Chinese?

Yuan Yubo thought of his experience and experience of working in the United States for many years, and then heard the trust of his current boss, and a wave of energy also came out: "I can prove myself!" ”

"I hope you won't let me down." Meng Qian didn't give too much care, "You start taking office tomorrow, I plan to improve the cloud service technology construction by March next year, the current VR equipment and systems are no problem, and the product launch conference is also arranged nearby." ”

Yuan Yubo wrote it down: "I will try to give you a plan by next week." ”

"Not bad." Meng Qian likes this kind of efficiency. (To be continued.) )
