Chapter 263, almost
The Institute of Biotechnology of the Galaxy Science and Technology Research Institute is very busy, and the scientists in white coats are concentrating on their research projects.
In the blink of an eye, 2023 is coming to an end.
"Haha~ Finally reached 70% resolution, this virtual technology has been able to convert most of the information into brain waves so that it can be read directly by the brain."
In a laboratory, Lin Dong said with some excitement.
The further this virtual technology develops, the less room for its progress will be, and the more difficult it will be to make progress, and it will take more than half a year to rise from 60% resolution to 70% resolution.
This is still Qin Yi comes to the laboratory every day, and under the premise of having Qin Yi's plug-in, otherwise, if Lin Dong, Jiang Haohai, and Yin Xiao are allowed to study alone, Qin Yi estimates that it is impossible to increase by 70% every few years.
"To the extent that 70% of the information can be directly converted into brain waves and read by the brain, this virtual world is almost time to be truly promoted to everyone."
On the side, Qin Yi, who was also wearing a white coat, was thinking about opening up the virtual world in his mind.
Since a few months ago, Galaxy Technology Group announced its virtual technology and held a virtual world conference, almost all over the world has been discussing this upcoming virtual world.
At the same time, on the official website of Galaxy Technology Group, millions of people leave messages every day, hoping that Galaxy Technology Group will launch virtual machines as soon as possible, and the virtual world is really exciting.
In particular, domestic Internet companies, game companies, etc., have not been idle in the past few months.
On the one hand, they are busy developing software, games, etc. in the virtual world, and on the other hand, these companies and game companies are very clever in carrying out large-scale propaganda and starting to occupy a certain field in advance.
For example, a certain treasure will announce the opening progress of his side almost every day, get some videos or something, and brush up on the sense of existence.
If you do this, you will know that if you enter the virtual world to shop in the future, you will still go to find a treasure.
It not only promotes itself, but also invisibly hits those who also want to enter the field of online shopping, letting them know that this cake has been targeted by themselves, and they will go elsewhere if they know each other.
Another example is Xishanju Game Studio, which is one of the top game studios in China and is best at opening martial arts games.
With the popularity of the virtual world, this game studio has also received the support of large sums of money and large funds from big money owners, and while expanding its recruitment crazily, it is also aiming at the virtual game market.
With the support of large sums of money and large sums of money, they will announce a virtual martial arts game video they are creating every day, some settings of virtual martial arts games, schools, game storylines, etc., so as to firmly attract domestic gamers.
As soon as the virtual world is opened and the virtual machine is in hand, it is natural that a large number of gamers will enter the virtual game developed by themselves.
The virtual world and virtual games have not yet been officially opened, and all kinds of publicity, advertising, etc. have been bombarded indiscriminately, and this is not only limited to China.
Because I know that the virtual world is global, the propaganda of these domestic Internet companies and game companies is global publicity, and I don't want to throw money down.
From the skyscraper monitors on the Bund to Times Square in New York, from Ginza in Tokyo to London Street, all kinds of advertisements about virtual worlds and virtual games can be seen everywhere, making the topic of virtual worlds extremely popular.
People all over the world are talking about virtual worlds and virtual games, and they are also looking forward to the early release of virtual machines by Galaxy Technology Group.
The reason why Qin Yi is not in a hurry to launch a virtual machine is naturally because all aspects of the virtual world are still immature, and he needs to give everyone some worlds to develop virtual world software and virtual games.
Another aspect is that the chips used by the virtual machine are produced by themselves, and the production line has not been done at that time, and the output is limited, so there is no way to produce virtual helmets on a large scale.
Hold off and wait.
Now that several months have passed, many Internet companies and game companies have preliminarily completed the development of virtual software and virtual games.
The production of virtual helmets on my side can already be mass-produced, and the topic of virtual worlds and virtual games has become extremely hot, and it is time to release virtual helmets.
Thinking of this, Qin Yi also left the laboratory in a hurry and returned to the office of the new headquarters building of Galaxy Technology Group, the spaceship building.
That time he went to the imperial capital Moon Mining Group to participate in the shareholders' meeting of the Lunar Mining Group's listing, and after Qin Yi returned, he ordered the construction of a new headquarters building of Galaxy Technology Group.
After a year and a half of construction and decoration, the new headquarters building of Galaxy Technology Group was finally officially put into use before the Chinese New Year.
The spaceship building covers a very large area, with a height of several hundred meters, and the overall shape is like a huge spaceship, so it is called the spaceship building.
In addition to the name of the spaceship building, the design concept of this new headquarters building is also in line with the development of the times, and it is the first building in the world that can park private anti-gravity aircraft on a large scale, which can be regarded as a new era of architectural trends.
Qin Yi's office is located at the top of the spaceship building, with an extremely wide view, enough to overlook the entire bustling Huangjing Town, where Qin Yi takes a look at the surrounding scenery every day when he gets off work.
"Inform Wang Zhengyang and Lin Ye to come over to me."
Qin Yi returned to the office and immediately commanded his secretary Lin Fang.
Then I started thinking about the sale of virtual machines.
In terms of private anti-gravity aircraft, Qin Yi can give priority to taking care of his own people, selling it to foreigners for 20 million and selling it to himself for 2 million, although it is just a change of name, but it is also taking care of his own people in disguise.
But this virtual machine is different, it is destined to be as popular as mobile phones and computers, so in terms of sales, you still need to think carefully.
Soon, Lin Ye and Wang Zhengyang came to Qin Yi's office.
"How much do we produce chips now?"
A few people sat down and chatted over tea.
"Now we can produce almost 1 million chips a month."
"In addition, we have now hoarded almost 3 million chips, and the production of biosensors, the core of virtual technology, is almost 1 million a month."
"In terms of assembly, we have also reached an agreement with the Foxconn Group, and our suppliers have also been selected for the production of other accessories, and there is no problem at all in terms of output."
"I think it's almost time for us to sell the virtual machine~"
Hearing Qin Yi's words, Wang Zhengyang reported his complicated work.
Wang Zhengyang is responsible for all the virtual world management aspects of the virtual machine in the future, and he knows the progress of this part very clearly.
"So how do you think our virtual machines should be released?"
Qin Yi nodded, now that the conditions are ripe, it is time to send a virtual machine.
"Domestically, I think we still take the way of direct sales on the official website, and as for foreign countries, I think it is better for us to find partners and agents."
Regarding various things in the virtual machine and virtual world, Wang Zhengyang has also discussed many times with his subordinates, and now he has also said the plan.
"I think it's okay, our company's products have always been sold like this, and now companies are more and more like to sell directly online, reduce middlemen, maximize their own interests as much as possible, and at the same time make consumers profitable."
"As for foreign countries, if we are not familiar with the place, it is better to find an agent, and there can be a lot of trouble left."
Lin Ye nodded in support.
"Then this matter is decided, and the two of you will be responsible for the recruitment of foreign agents."
"Has the price of the virtual machine been decided?"
Qin Yi nodded, then thought about it and asked about the price of the virtual machine.
"Our domestic price is 20,000 Chinese dollars, and the external sales are also 20,000 units, but because of the agent, the price will definitely increase."
Wang Zhengyang also said the pricing.
"Isn't it too high?"
Qin Yi heard the offer, thought about it slightly and said, the cost of a virtual helmet Qin Yi is very clear, the cost of a virtual helmet is about 2,000 Chinese dollars, if the output is large enough, the cost can be reduced.
These 2,000 yuan are sold for 20,000 yuan, which is directly multiplied by 10, and the price of 20,000 yuan is really very expensive.
"This price is very expensive after careful investigation, but it is also in line with the characteristics and image of our products."
"At present, our production is limited, and the price will naturally be set higher, and after we launch a new virtual helmet, we can sell the old ones at a lower price, so as to slowly form a price ladder and win all the high, medium and low grade consumers."
Wang Zhengyang smiled and explained.
"Moreover, in order to study virtual technology, we have invested hundreds of billions of Chinese dollars before and after, and if the price is not necessarily higher, how can we recover our costs, and the investment in scientific research in the future is still very large."
"In addition, the price of 20,000 yuan was of course more expensive in the past, but now our country's per capita income is very high, and some people estimate that our per capita GPD can reach 200,000 Chinese dollars this year, which is about 100,000 US dollars, which is enough to rank first in the world."
"The price of 20,000 yuan is not too expensive~"
PS: If we had 100,000 US dollars per capita~ wouldn't it be terrifying, and the world's attacks would be sold out by us~
