"True virtuality, 100% realism!"

"Want to be a hero? Want to travel to another world? Want to do whatever you want? Come to Warcraft! ”

"Our childhood dreams, virtual games that only exist in movies and movies, have appeared!"

"It's the best of times and it's the worst of times. We have witnessed the greatest miracle of 30 years, but also the greatest challenge. What are you waiting for? Don't let your child lose at the starting line of the virtual world! ”

"Inside information: Azeroth social network company has cooperation with more than 70 countries around the world, virtual technology has been applied to the military field 2 months ago, China took the lead in introducing the field of education, 5-10 years to fully realize virtual teaching, more flexible, more practice-oriented teaching methods, more focus on teaching itself rather than test scores...... This is the future of humanity. ”

"It's official: Azeroth Social Networks is building a complete and grand virtual world, a universe called 'Azeroth', and Warcraft is just a small part of it, a beginning."

"What are you waiting for!"

smashed $100 million, and overnight the advertisements for "Warcraft" were overwhelming.

The whole world is propaganda for virtual games.

From the Internet to television, from mobile phones to tablets, from Shanghai's financial center to New York's Times Square, from Beijing's Bada Hutong to Paris's Champs-Élysées, wherever there is well water, there is a virtual world of publicity, popularization and discussion.

The quality of the commercials is unprecedented, and the incredible authenticity of the short films is miraculous, from the fluttering hair to the sparkle in the eyes, the pixels in every part exceed the best cinematic effects.

The world view is so complete that it is unbelievable, as if it is not fiction but a real world, and any hero or soldier with a name has a complete story line and CG short films, which are tear-jerking.

Enough eyeballs were sucked in.

Although he had been mentally prepared, Lao Wang was still taken aback.

"Warcraft" is far more popular than he imagined!

Every young person has played games and has a dream of playing virtual games.

Although VR games came out several years ago, both the experience and the degree of virtuality are too poor, so people don't want to play a second time after playing once, and they can't be interested at all.

But Warcraft is different.

It is a virtual game in the true sense of the word, and many of the scenes are downloaded directly from Lao Wang's memory, and each character comes from his memory, which is exactly the same as the real characters in World of Warcraft:

A lich with a cold body and a gloomy voice, a demon hunter with an eye patch and a double sword, an archmage on a white horse, and a king of the hills descended from the gods......

Everything comes from World of Warcraft.

Because it is real, it brings an unimaginable sense of experience.

"It's terrible, the priest girl died in front of me, looking at me with wide eyes, I think I will leave a shadow in my life!"

"Strange, how do I feel that I can really cast spells, this Warcraft can't be the real world, right? biu，biubiubiu！ ”

"It's boring, why be harmonious, I want to see the blood burst, I want to see the poisonous gas gushing, I want to ...... Don't make a fuss, I'm not mentally ill! You are mistaken, I am not patient No. 5, I am Yangtze River No. 7! ”

"Anything is fine, it's just that there are too few helmets."

"It's free for a month, only reservations are accepted, and you can only experience it for 1 hour at a time, and you can make another reservation after 1 day...... Can you do it in 1 hour? There's not enough foreplay, I'm not wet yet! ”

"Dude, you're so wet...... I relied on being a coarse man, and I was scared to pee by ghouls and crypt demons? ”

Walking in the lobby of the Shanghai Virtual Experience Center, watching the strange expressions of those experiencers, and listening to their screams and mockery, Lao Wang was very happy.

The 21st century is the era of talents, the age of information, the era of artificial intelligence, and the era of virtual technology.

The yet unarrived 5G will change the world and enable the Internet of Everything, but compared to virtual technology, it can only be regarded as a piece of cake.

It's a great start.

What can a real virtual world do?

Ready Player One gives a good explanation.

From social to education, from military to experiment, from science to culture, in 10 years at the latest, there will be no one in the world who has nothing to do with virtual technology, and the world will eventually change because of this.

In the last life, he finally failed to get the virtual technology with a high sense of experience, and Lao Wang has always regretted it.

Although I have seen this kind of technology in my previous life, I have been fighting non-stop and have never been safe, which is also a pity.

In this life, it has finally been made up.

So......

Lao Wang said softly, "Skye, you can start the next step." ”

Ten minutes later, an announcement appeared on the official website of Azeroth Social Network:

……

Spend $100 million or more, upgrade to Titan membership, and enjoy a 5% discount.

As soon as the announcement came out, it attracted a lot of scolding.

Too expensive.

The cheapest helmets cost thousands of dollars, and they cost $10 an hour, which is many times more expensive than an Internet café.

For most ordinary people, it is really unaffordable.

At the same time, the pre-order channel on the official website was almost crowded.

There are 7 billion people in the world.

$1,000 is a lot, but even if only 1 out of 100 are willing to buy it, there are 70 million people...... Limited to 1 million, more monks and less porridge, anyone will calculate this account.

Even the expensive VR somatosensory cabin is only 1 million US dollars, and for those who are really rich, the price of a watch is nothing at all, and some people buy 10 at a time, or because the purchase is limited to 10......

Less than 1 hour later, the pre-sale channel was closed.

If you are still hesitating, please wait for the second batch......

Listening to the cursing and remorse of each other around him, Lao Wang shook his head slightly.

$1,000 is not cheap, but it can't be helped.

The cost is there, and no matter how cheap it is, it can't be cheaper.

The profit margin of virtual equipment is actually not high, and Lao Wang does not plan to make money on this-

Update packs for the virtual world, heroes' skins, weapons and equipment, each of them costs money and is very expensive.

If you want to play more RPG games, you have to pay too.

Not to mention the fact that you can also rent out advertising space......

And it's really not expensive, it's not as good as the recently popular smartphone "Banana 10plus", but the technology content is several times higher, and it should be sought-after.

If you can afford the "Banana 10plus", you will definitely be willing to buy the cheapest VR headset.

"Banana 10plus" has sold more than 10 million copies worldwide, and VR headsets should be more than that.

Let's not engage in hunger sales, and the next shipment will go directly to the next shipment.

Let's only play with technology and hardware upgrades......

"It seems that it is time to promote the introduction of 5G and 6G...... Lao Wang shook his head slightly.

10% realism VR headset, which reduces the resolution and reduces the requirements for network speed, can be met by the general public.

50% realism, the requirements for network speed are very high, and fiber to the home is enough.

As for 100% authenticity, at present, except for the experience center, only a few occasions can meet it, such as large computer rooms, data interaction centers, and some laboratories with extremely high requirements.

Communication is also a big fragrant cake, and I don't know if I can share it on the table......

A large amount of funds poured in, the newly built factory was immediately put into production, more virtual experience centers began to be selected and built, and local governments supported it, and everything was on the right track.

Subsequently, a series of companies relying on virtual technology, such as animation, film, and advertising, will also be established.

Full flowering.

After getting the virtual technology, the afterlife base was handed over to Jia Ying to deal with, and Skye devoted himself to the operation of the company, watching the large influx of funds every day, as happy as seeing Lao Wang.

Of course, no amount of inflow funds can stay on the books for long, and it will soon be invested in equipment production and infrastructure -

More virtual experience centers need to be built, the Azeroth Building and Lab are not yet completed, the two major bases of the Divine Stick Bureau need financial support, Azeroth Industries needs better machine tools, and a series of acquisitions are underway......

And at this time, Fitz and Simmons found Lao Wang at the same time.
