At this moment, Li Yufan didn't know that he was not the only one who was paying attention to Tianwai and "Beyond Illusion", and all forces around the world had quietly opened their tentacles. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

China, South, a military district

It was close to midnight, and an impromptu meeting had just begun.

Sitting at the top is a 60-year-old chief, not angry and arrogant, with a sense of fortitude, looking at the rank, he is a lieutenant general. On either side of the conference table sat five middle-aged men in military uniforms, all with more or less serious expressions.

The leader in the center sighed for a moment and said, "There is an urgent task to convey when we convene a meeting so late. ”

As soon as I heard the urgent task, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became solemn, almost breathless.

The chief seemed to feel the solemnity of the atmosphere, and said with a slight smile: "Don't be so serious, although it is said to be an urgent task, it is only an urgent time, and it is not that there is any critical situation, so don't worry too much." Before talking about the task, I would like to ask what kind of understanding and understanding you have about the current virtual reality technology. Xiao Wang, you are in charge of information technology, let's talk about it first. ”

The middle-aged man known as Xiao Wang is thin and wears a pair of black-framed glasses, giving people a sense of elegance. "Chief, as far as I know, the current virtual reality technology has made great progress compared with previous years, both in technology and equipment, and some departments in our army have introduced this technology, and it is widely used in the training of recruits in some specific subjects, as well as some terrain reconnaissance, simulated confrontation and other projects, and has achieved very good results. Recently, our information department is also studying whether to further expand the scope of application of this technology to better use it. Personally, I'm not afraid of everyone's jokes, I've also played some virtual reality games, watched virtual movies, and I have to admit that this is a very promising technology, even a subversive one. ”

The chief laughed and said, "There are no jokes or jokes, young people just have to keep pace with the times." Although I haven't played the game, but since I watched a virtual movie with my little granddaughter, I have a little like it, and I use this device to watch war-themed film and television dramas, which is really a bit immersive, and now is the era of rapid technological advancement, and if you can't keep up with the times, you will be eliminated sooner or later. Okay, without further ado, but the quest for you this time really has something to do with an upcoming game. ”

The chief said this, looking around at a few people, "I don't know if you remember an incident that occurred two years ago, two years ago there was a mysterious organization that claimed to have discovered souls other than matter in the human body, and named it the consciousness body, and at the same time set up sites around the world to provide free services to test the strength of consciousness, which almost caused a revolution. At that time, the relevant departments immediately noticed the anomaly of the situation, because this organization was almost all over the world, and it appeared very suddenly, and its actions were very mysterious. China, the United States, Russia, Europe and other countries reached an agreement on a joint investigation in a short period of time, and decisively launched a search and arrest almost simultaneously in various places, but it is unbelievable that this organization all over the world mysteriously disappeared overnight, leaving no trace at all, no, it is not rigorous to say so, at least in China they deliberately left a consciousness strength tester. Later, the instrument was finally sent to the Chinese Academy of Sciences, which gathered experts from various departments to study it for several months, and finally they came to the conclusion that the principle of making this machine far exceeded the current scientific level, and it is certain that it does have the function of testing the strength of consciousness. ”

The chief paused for a moment, straightened out everyone's thoughts, and continued: "As you know, in order to calm the situation, we reached an agreement to name it a transnational pyramid marketing organization, and after a long time, people forgot about it. However, the relevant departments have been secretly investigating it, and although there has been no news for more than a year, they have not given up. However, things have taken a turn for the better recently, a few days ago, a technology company called Tianwai suddenly appeared, and the address of the registered capital headquarters is inconspicuous, but they use the pattern logo of the mysterious organization, and the day after its establishment, it was announced that it was about to launch a virtual reality game with an immersive consciousness, and it was about to sell terminal equipment to the outside world. Judging by their way of doing things and their level of knowledge of the technology of the consciousness body, we are almost certain that the Outer Universe Corporation is the mysterious organization, or that the organization stands behind it. ”

"What the chief means is that our mission this time is to 。。。。。。。 these people." The man on the chief's left asked, his right hand making a false grasping motion.

The chief smiled slightly, shook his head, and said, "Xiao Li, you are still so straightforward, if things are so easy, you don't need to give orders to your Snow Leopard Special Operations Force." First of all, we need to fully understand the importance of this mission, and don't take it lightly because it's just about a game. This so-called consciousness body, even Americans have no clue, this organization has figured it out, and it has been made into a consciousness immersion game in just two years. Although I haven't seen the equipment yet, and I haven't experienced the actual effect, according to the explanation of experts from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, if we really achieve consciousness immersion, then we feel like we are in another real world, and our five senses will be preserved, not only can we see and smell, but even the nose and mouth can taste the taste, and the touch of the body is the same as reality. If you think about it, this is the real disruptive technology, once it is really invented, the entire social process of human beings will be rewritten, and people's lifestyles will be significantly changed. Therefore, when such a technology is about to be announced to the world, we must be cautious and cautious in all our actions, and there must not be a little mistake. ”

"The second point is that we need to have a full estimate of the background of the organization. As I said just now, the research on consciousness is almost zero in the world, and the technology mastered by this organization is at least fifty years ahead of the world, if not more. But the team with such scientific research and development capabilities has a very mysterious provenance, and the secrecy work is quite strict, as if it suddenly jumped out of the soil, which has to make people doubt his origin, and combined with the name 'Tianwai', we can't overestimate it. ”

"The third point, our actions must be absolutely careful and careful, if we move too much, so that this organization feels threatened in China and leaves China, it means that this technology will also leave China, in the past, it doesn't matter if everyone didn't have it, but now if we don't, and the United States, Japan, Russia and Europe have, it will definitely not work, so all our actions must be delineated, and absolutely do not touch the psychological boundaries of the other party."

"Now I'll lay out the content of the task, and if you have any good methods, you can also add. On the one hand, we need to send some people to visit the company on the spot, and it is best to be able to apply for jobs within the company, get in touch with their high-level people, and keep an eye on the situation in the game equipment sales offices in various places. Of course, everything about immersive virtual reality is classified at the moment, and no one should notice their upcoming game called "Beyond Unreal", but once they start the open beta, it will definitely cause an explosion of panic sales, we have to maintain order, and at the same time prevent these devices from flowing abroad, although we don't know the specific content of the game, but the number has always been our advantage. ”

"On the other hand, our military wants to get involved, yes, to participate in the game environment and have a more comprehensive understanding of the technology."

"And 。。。。。。"

The game-themed meeting lasted until three o'clock in the morning, and then all relevant departments quickly mobilized and rushed to the designated locations. For a while, under the calm, the wind surged.

Of course, it is not only the Chinese government that is paying attention to the company's movements, but also the Pentagon of the United States, Russia, Japan, European countries and other countries have paid more or less attention to it.

When it comes to the current state of virtual games, the most concerned is neither a consortium nor a big figure in the financial world, but an unpopular group, that is, many studios and game unions that make a living from games. With the popularity of VR headsets, the public has seen the prospect of virtual reality games, and the game guild is also rising, not only doubling in value, but also people's perception has quietly changed. Playing games to earn money is no longer seen as idle or unprofessional, the social status of gamers has also improved greatly, and the game industry has attracted many elite talents with ability, brains and vision overnight.

At a time when "Martial Arts World", the largest domestic game company that took three years to produce, and represents the current top level of VR, is about to be open beta, various labor unions and many game studios are already gearing up and ready to go. The rich owner wants to have a hard time, laugh proudly, be happy and revenge, and experience the atmosphere of the martial arts world that was only described in books before. The studios are thinking about how to seize the opportunity to make a big profit and cut a piece of meat from the fingers of the operating company. Regardless of the purpose, all eyes converged on the day of September 10th.

It is impossible to say that "Beyond Unreal" is completely ignored by these gamers, after all, the "full consciousness immersion" brand played by Tianwai Company is too bluffing, and it is easy to form a topic. But when the studios and unions saw the requirements for the equipment and the ridiculously expensive price, they all extinguished the little bit of caution in their hearts, and invested such a high cost into a 99.9% provable scam, no one but a madman would do it.
