. Intel and Dream Entertainment Co., Ltd. cooperated to release the first generation of personal game servers, achieved remarkable sales figures, and the profits obtained shocked the whole world.

However, the popularity of the first-generation personal game servers became an obstacle to the release of the second-generation personal game servers. Normally, although computer products are updated very quickly, no matter how fast it is, it will take at least a year to take it.

The Tick-Tock strategic development model proposed by Intel this year is based on a one-year cycle, with one year representing Tick and one year representing Tock. Although Intel's vision was very good, in fact, after the release of the i-series processors in 2008, Intel was very unreliable.

The performance gap between the first-generation i-series processors and the second-generation i-series processors is less than 10%, and this weak improvement scheme has been the same until the fourth-generation i-series processors, resulting in a very lack of players' desire to upgrade.

At present, the relationship between the second-generation personal game server and the first-generation personal game server is also like this, and the player's desire to upgrade is not high, after all, the release time between the two has not exceeded two months, and the time interval is too short!

In order to force users to upgrade, Intel's method is very disgusting, and that is to change the type of pin interface of the CPU. CPUs of different eras, interface type LGA775, followed by LGA1156, then LGA1155, and the latest LGA1150, as well as high-end LGA1366, LGA2011, etc.

It is precisely because of this disgusting behavior of Intel that it has driven a series of industrial chains, forcing users to upgrade their central processing units. The motherboard had to be upgraded, so that the motherboard chipset produced by Intel also got a huge sale.

In order to sell the second-generation personal game server, Shi Lei is also ready to learn from Intel and bundle it. Dream Entertainment, on the other hand, will restrict VR gaming headsets and must use second-generation personal game servers. Otherwise, even if you purchase a VR gaming headset, you will not be able to use it normally.

On the other end of the phone, the Storm Hears VR game headset will be connected to the second-generation personal game server. Bundling, Storm immediately asked: "Mr. Shi, is the second-generation personal game server produced by AMD?" ”

Dream Entertainment bought AMD, and there hasn't been any explosive news since then. AMD is still operating AMD's products. There is also no world with the brave. What relevance sales activities are being conducted.

Such a situation makes players think that Dream Entertainment will not launch a second-generation personal game server for the time being. Until now, Shi Lei personally said that Dream Entertainment Company will choose the second-generation personal game server and VR game headset for bundled sales.

"Yes! We acquired AMD. Naturally, it's to sell your own personal game server. Shi Lei said bluntly, and said to the storm without scruples.

The storm was a little speechless and stopped, and squirmed: "Mr. Shi, the strength of AMD." There's a little, well, AMD's..."

Shi Lei interrupted the storm and said with a smile: "Is it that AMD's technical strength is far inferior to intel, and the personal game servers produced by AMD will be worse than intel in terms of performance?" ”

AMD's technical strength is indeed a little worse than Intel's. Although the two companies are fighting hard in the consumer market, AMD is even more dominant in some low-end markets. But Intel's overall technical strength is stronger, especially in the commercial field, Intel can sell a server CPU for the price of a small car, which AMD can't do anyway.

The CPU used in personal game servers is the server-level CPU, which is a traditional weakness of AMD, and it is normal to be questioned by the storm.

For high-end players, changing personal game servers is not an impossible thing to do. But if the performance of the second-generation personal game server is not as good as the first-generation personal game server, isn't that a little uncomfortable for them?

"Ahaha~" Storm Ha Luha smiled dryly, and Shi Lei completely said what he wanted to express.

"Don't worry! We never deny that AMD is a little weaker, but the gap between the two sides is limited, and through our technical support, the overall performance of the second-generation personal game server will be improved by at least 50%! Shi Lei swore a promise.

In the era of 2007, the gap between AMD and intel was far less huge than that of later generations. In the following years, Intel invested a huge amount of R&D funds with a huge total capital, thus leaving AMD far behind.

"Really?" Storm asked, surprised.

That's a 50% increase, which is a huge improvement! The upgrade of many products is less than 20 percent, whether it is the computer industry or other industries, basically there will be no leap in development.

Once the upgrade is in place, users will have no desire to upgrade!

"Don't worry, this is my promise!" Shi Lei responded with a smile.

"What about the price of the second-generation personal game server?" The storm did not express any doubts, and Shi Lei's credibility in the outside world is still relatively high.

Shi Lei thought about it for a while, and finally decided that the second-generation personal game server would still maintain the price of the first-generation server, so as to make it easier for players to accept.

However, in order to express more sincerity, Shi Lei decided to collectively increase the price of the second-generation personal game server of each grade by one dollar, making up a whole number.

Originally, the lowest-end elite personal game server was sold for $1,999, and after the price was adjusted, it was $2,000.

"In terms of price, refer to the first generation of personal game servers. We will raise the price a little bit, after all, the performance has increased by as much as 50%, and the cost pressure has increased a lot. Shi Lei did not directly explain the situation to the storm.

Storm is also mentally prepared, and the second-generation personal game server with greatly improved performance is also acceptable to raise some prices.

"It is appropriate to increase the price, and after the pre-sale system of the official website is opened, I will reserve a hundred sets of God-given personal game servers. By the way, Mr. Shi, AMD accepts private reservations for personal game servers, right? I'd like to book a personal game server with better performance. Storm asked Shi Lei about the specific situation.

The first generation of personal game servers currently used by Storm was privately customized by Intel. The performance far exceeds that of the official top-of-the-line personal game servers.

For the player's private customization, Shi Lei has no special restrictions, and AMD can fully accept reservations. After receiving an affirmative answer, Storm chatted with Shi Lei about the Brave World Realm again, and then hung up the phone.

Shi Lei put down his phone. Thinking carefully about the 'bad idea' that the storm offered, I have to say. The advice of the storm was excellent. If it weren't for the storm mentioning, Shi Lei wouldn't have thought of the evil trick of pre-sale.

"Storm is a talent!" Shi Lei praised himself in a muttering manner, but unfortunately the background of the storm is too big for him to join Dream Entertainment.

Shi Lei opened the background of the dream entertainment company's web server again, wrote the source code himself, and prepared to follow the storm's suggestion. Develop a pre-sale system.

Through this pre-sale system, players can pre-order VR game headsets, but if they want to purchase VR game headsets, they must pay the full amount for the reservation.

Nearly half an hour later. Shi Lei, with the cooperation of Yi Zuer, completed the compilation of the pre-sale system. The pre-sale system is a payment method that adopts the Dreamer payment system of Dream Entertainment, which is convenient for players around the world to make reservations.

"Yizhuer, stress test the online pre-sale system to see if there are any loopholes." Shi Lei ordered Yishuer to conduct a test, and Yishuer's highly anthropomorphic logical thinking program is very effective for the stress test of the program, and Yishuer can easily test out the vulnerabilities of the program.

About ten minutes later, Yi Shuer sent a prompt, "Sir, after 1.67 million tests, the system automatically fixed three bugs, and the stress test passed successfully." ”

After Yishuer discovers the vulnerability, it will be automatically repaired, and if Yishuer cannot fix it independently, Shi Lei will be notified to deal with it. Yishuer is an advanced pseudo-artificial intelligence system, except for the lack of innovation ability and independent emotion, there is basically not much gap with real humans.

Shi Lei nodded and looked at the time, it is Xia Guo time, at 10:18 in the morning, Shi Lei immediately set the time, and the pre-sale system will be released at 10:20.

This time, the release time of the pre-sale system has finally returned to a 'summer country time', and Dream Entertainment finally no longer needs to be ridiculed by players as an 'overseas company'.

June 19, 10:20 a.m.

On the homepage of the official website of Dream Entertainment, a picture advertisement appeared, in which a black matte fully enclosed helmet appeared with a sense of futuristic technology.

Outside the matte black fully enclosed helmet, there is a long mirror LED display, and in the display interface, the dark blue glowing text shows some basic information, including the helmet battery remaining, the data connection stability percentage, and the remote connection status.

On the top of the black matte fully enclosed helmet, there is also a button flashing blue light, depicting the 'power' logo, and there is a text introduction next to it, this button, not only the power switch, but also the wake-up button, can remind the player who is playing the game, and there is someone outside who is calling.

At the bottom of the image ad, a hyperlink is marked with bold blue text - VR game headset pre-sale!.
