Just as players began to immerse themselves in this unprecedented game world, the players in the Internet café who did not wait for the empty plane could not only wait in boredom.

The huge LCD TV wall of the same size in the waiting area of each Deep Blue Internet café has been opened, and it shows the game screen of one of the players in the Internet café - of course, it was negotiated with the player in advance, so that players who are not on the computer can also experience the charm of "Castle Heart" in this way.

According to the boss, this image player uses the second-generation mirage version that has just been on the market for a short time, and it is a step further than the previous CG level conversion function, which can be converted into a three-dimensional image with an out-of-screen effect, which is not inferior to the effect of a 3D cinema.

And the actual effect is really good, the image displayed in front of the players in the waiting area is like a real scene in front of them, but it is not touched through an invisible wall, and they are dizzy to see it, and they can't wait to have a phantom glasses to experience the scene in person.

In the end, this is just a kind of spiritual comfort like wishing to quench your thirst.

Just when they looked around the boarding area from time to time, expecting someone to leave the vacated machine, there was a sudden sound of a car horn outside, and then they saw the manager of the Internet café trotting out with a few staff members, and soon each of them came to the front desk with a half-person tall cardboard box.

"Hey, it's Phantom World Glasses, boss, what are you moving out so for?" Sharp-eyed players immediately saw the logo and product name on the chest.

"After I reported our situation to the headquarters, the headquarters temporarily transferred these goods, so we can't let everyone wait like this."

Hearing this answer, the eyes of the player who asked the question suddenly lit up.

"So we can play Castle Heart with the Illusion Glasses!?"

"Well, that's right."

Suddenly, the players around who heard this conversation surrounded them. All of a sudden, it was densely packed, and the manager was so frightened that he shouted loudly: "Don't crowd, everyone should line up at the front desk according to the numbers received before, and the number of goods is sufficient, so as to ensure that everyone can play!" ”

The staff next to him also immediately helped to maintain order, and finally let the players line up at the front desk sensibly. There were no crowding stampedes.

Seeing the scene in front of him, the manager breathed a sigh of relief, and took the staff to move the goods in his hands to the temporary stacking area behind the front desk, and then he began to go through the formalities with the part-time worker at the front desk to the players at the front of the line, while the other staff continued to move goods outside.

Soon, a group of ten players completed the formalities, each of them got a set of Illusion Glasses, Spiritual Headphones, and Sage Controllers, and followed a staff member waiting next to them from a staircase on the edge of the waiting area to the second floor, which was originally another board game lounge, but had been pre-rented by the manager.

This group of players was led by the staff into one of the rather elegant rooms. I saw that a row of chairs had been arranged along the wall, and each person was free to choose one to sit on, and then a board was turned up from the left armrest of the chair, and placed on the right armrest to form a small table.

Under the guidance of the staff, this group of players quickly understood how to use this set of equipment, connected to the sub-server of the flagship store, and entered the game world. And at this time. The next group of players also went up to the second floor......

If you do a good group, you will go up to a group, very quickly. The number of players in the waiting area began to decrease, and the players felt much more at ease when they saw the goods that were still moving in, and they were less worried about not being able to take their turns.

At this time, the manager was completely relieved, listening to the reports from the staff on the second floor, and an indescribable pride grew secretly in his heart. You must know that he was originally a senior manager, and he was one of the best among the young people in the Wang Group. However, the prince's words pulled him out of the group and threw him here to form an Internet café alliance.

At first, he was very awkward in his heart, no matter how good the Internet café is, it can't be compared with any subsidiary of the Wang Group, but the crown prince Wang Yuan opened his mouth, and he could only bite the bullet.

It was only when he got to the bottom of the plan. His mind changed completely, because this was not the traditional Internet café industry he had originally thought, but a completely new and disruptive business idea, and the personal benefits that he could have brought to him if he had led the development of the project from the beginning were unimaginable.

So he didn't need to be spurred, his enthusiasm was fully mobilized, not only dutifully completed the preliminary preparation stage, but also personally sat in the most important flagship store during the public beta to monitor the on-site situation in real time.

There is no need for a computer per person like a traditional Internet café, only a central server and an extended sub-server, and with the unique Phantom World glasses, Lingyu headset and sage controller, players can enjoy the network service content without barriers, and this is just the beginning.

Thinking of this, the smile on the manager's face became even stronger.

……

As players invest in the game, various data is also continuously gathered at Transwarp headquarters.

A day after the open beta began, Transwarp held a press conference to release the data for Castle Heart.

According to statistics, when "Castle Heart" was launched, the number of online users worldwide exceeded 2 million, and in just ten minutes, this number exceeded 5 million, and it is still increasing rapidly. After three hours, the number of online players exceeded 10 million, of which the Chinese mainland had 4 million online players, the rest of Asia provided 1.2 million, of which Japanese and South Korean players accounted for more than 60% of them, European countries had more than 2.5 million online players, and North America represented by the lighthouse country had more than 2.3 million, and the total number of online players had exceeded 10 million!

And that's not the limit, the number is still growing. By the time 24 hours had passed, the highest number of concurrent online users of "Castle Heart" had exceeded 1800W, making it a well-deserved large-scale role-playing online game with the largest number of online users.

What is the concept of tens of millions of people online?

According to the statistics of the traditional online game industry, 100,000 simultaneous online players can feed a game well and make it continue to operate well; Millions of online players mean making a lot of money, and the monthly income is not a problem; And when it reaches the level of tens of millions, it is undoubtedly digging a big gold mine, and the profit of this game is immeasurable.

Comparing World of Warcraft, the most successful large-scale role-playing online game to date, World of Warcraft's peak data was 09 years, with the highest number of concurrent online users being 1300W+, and World of Warcraft's total revenue was more than $1 billion that year. In this comparison, it can be said that now, a few years later, as long as "Castle Heart" can maintain this level, then there is no problem at all with an annual revenue of more than $1 billion, not to mention that the current economic level of players and the means of charging for games have long been different, resulting in this value will only be higher.

In addition, there is a very important point, that is, "Castle Heart" can not only be played in front of the console, as a cross-platform online game, whether it is a mobile phone or a computer, it can be played, but the picture is different according to the performance of the body, so its ability to attract players is undoubtedly higher than that of World of Warcraft, which will also be intuitively mapped into the actual revenue.

Faced with the number of online players in "Castle Heart" continuing to become popular, there was a voice of shock and jealousy inside and outside the industry.

The real first visual holographic game in history, the expectation of the fantasy space, the global connection system that breaks the physical boundary, and so on.

Don't ask Transwarp, people in the industry can analyze the success of "Heart of the Castle", but they know it, but are they able to do these things? The gap in technology made them helpless to watch Transwarp Technology eat meat, but they were helpless.

Of course, the opportunity to drink soup is not impossible, at the press conference, Transwarp Technology and the field of thinking jointly stated that the plan to provide full technical support for the games on the Assault platform is already being prepared, and it will soon be open to the outside world to a limited extent.

For a while, the number of applications for joining the Storm Platform skyrocketed, and the game production individuals or companies under the original Storm Platform were also gearing up, just waiting to squeeze into this market to obtain that eye-watering profit.

And this situation is undoubtedly the two that the two companies that are most happy to see as the owners of the charging platform, the field of thinking and Transwarp.

In the spacious conference room, the management of Transwarp Technology and the thinking field sat on the left and right sides of the long table, looking at the constantly refreshing numbers on the screen in front of them, and the atmosphere was very warm.

"Hey, Chen Peng, I'll talk to you." Wang Yuan said with a smile.

"What's the matter?" Chen Pengdao.

"Let's speed up the holographic progress of 'Balranta's World' a little faster."

"That's not going to work." It was Vanessa who spoke, and she spoke fluent Chinese, which was very natural. In this regard, the others did not have any strange expressions, and seemed to think that this was very normal.

"All the publicity plans have been carried out according to the original listing plan, and any changes will disrupt the original work plan."

"Ah, that's a shame, you're making a lot of money." Wang Yuan shrugged, but he didn't care too much.

Before the release of "Castle Heart", the holographic version of "World of Balranta" was already on the schedule, and it is expected to be released in a month and a half.

"You haven't made any less money, don't say anything else, just say that this second generation of Lingyu is your exclusive share, or you don't need to change the share of Lingyu headphones in advance." Zhang Danmiao said with a smile.

"Hey, take advantage of the fire! If you want this, you might as well stare at the big winner next to you, it's much more convenient. Wang Yuan shouted.

Wang Yuan refers to Chen Peng, as the developer of the Lingyu headset, Chen Peng personally owns 50% of the ownership of the Lingyu series, and he also has a lot of ownership of other mirages, sage controllers and the current Phantom World Glasses, so the biggest personal winner is him.
