As soon as the Dream Guide game was promoted, it was extremely enthusiastically popular. People don't care how the game is played, they just know that a game device costs $50,000 to get it, and it's a game that only the real rich can afford.

Only 50,000 sets of equipment were pre-sold on the game's official website, and according to different regions, only 5,000 sets were distributed in China.

Thanks to the endorsement of some of the world's top major entertainment groups and technology companies, the pre-sale worked surprisingly well, and the influx of traffic almost paralyzed the website, and overnight, the equipment was sold out.

Subsequently, the device, known as the "Space Box", was hyped up to more than $100,000 on the black market.

On the first day of the Chinese New Year, a movie called "Little Wrecking Ball" began its box office saga, and at the same time, the "Dream Guide" game was quietly launched.

A few days later, the first players to get their hands on the game started going crazy for the game on social media.

"Don't say anything, that's what it's called a smart game! It's called VR! ”

"I feel like I've opened the door to another world!"

"This is the most ** game I've ever played, not one of them!"

"I finally know how God created the world!"

"Oh my God, I feel like I've been living in dreams all along, and it's only when I put on my helmet that I'm back in the real world!"

"Tell you that I am God!"

……

In addition to these applause, there has not been a detailed game evaluation on major forums, such as the core gameplay of the game, plot introduction, customs clearance strategy, playability evaluation, etc., netizens once suspected that no one played this game at all, and it was all sent by the water army.

However, there is a rather strict process for buying a space box, not only to have a real-name system, but also to provide physical health data, and even rumors to check genetic information.

Although a box can create multiple accounts, the box is very intelligent and can identify the player's identity.

In this case, a botnet is unlikely, and it doesn't make sense. The role of the water army is to influence the general public without judgment through online speech, and such a game that ordinary people cannot afford to play, the water army cannot control consumer behavior at all.

50,000 boxes, at most, hundreds of thousands of players around the world, which is too niche for a game. But its mystery and topicality have allowed it to ferment around the globe in a very short period of time.

Some people scolded players for being stupid and that it costs hundreds of thousands to play a game. Someone immediately retorted, there are more people who spend hundreds of thousands of games on games, which game doesn't cost money? In contrast, the Dream Guide game itself doesn't charge a fee, it's just a hardware bundle that makes it look too expensive.

Then, some famous scientists have spoken out that the space box is a great product, comparable to the invention of computers and smart phones, with epoch-making significance, which will lead the transformation of life sciences and information technology to deeper fields.

It is widely believed that a new era has arrived.

As a result, more and more people began to ask, when will the price of the space box start to drop, and when will the second batch of space boxes start to go on sale?

Soon, the official announcement of the release plan of the space box. The pre-sale of the second batch of boxes starts on the 15th day of the first lunar month of the Chinese New Year, but the physical products will not be sent until three months later.

The pre-sale will reach three million units, but the price will remain at $50,000.

This news has caused countless people to be dissatisfied, why is it still so expensive? Why keep the poor out? Technological change should not be the preserve of the rich!

Waves of voices against technological monopolies and demands for technological equality began to emerge on the Internet.

However, the pre-sale of the product was sold out in less than a day.

……

Probably to compensate for the debt to his son, Xia Changzheng often bought some gifts and gave them to Xia.

He didn't know what the Dream Guide was, and he didn't know that the success of this project was also due to their Xia family. He only heard that this is a very advanced intelligent game, and it is not something that ordinary people can afford to play, just a VR headset costs hundreds of thousands.

Although he has withdrawn from the power center of the Xia family, his shares and dividends are there, and the annual income of some industries in the management of peripheral industries is also quite a lot, so money is not a problem for him, not to mention that it is only a few hundred thousand.

He knew that he liked to play games in the summer, so he decided to buy a set back and give it to his son.

What bothered him was that he couldn't buy it. He asked a lot of people, and finally spent nearly two million to get one through the black market.

Summer only played it once and fell in love with the game. He got his mom back in the game. He lives happily with his mother. He also built a castle for his mother, and a dragon guarded the gate of the castle, so that no one could bully his mother.

"Can you really see your mom in the game?" Xia Chujue's big eyes flickered, a little disbelieving, and asked expectantly.

"Of course it's true!" Summer vows, "It's as real as seeing Uncle Aoki in a dream!" You've all seen Uncle Aoki in your dreams, right? ”

Poppy, who was still a little unconvinced, was a little convinced when she heard Summer mention Aoki in her dream. She remembered the first time Aoki appeared in her dream, when she saw her father in a police uniform. It was that time that made her believe that her father was not a poisonous scorpion, but a good person.

Those scenes are vivid in my mind, as if they had actually happened.

"But, that's my godfather's skill! Godfather is a person with the same great skills as my father! Xia Chujue said.

Seeing that they still didn't believe it, Summer asked, "Then do you have lucid dreams?" ”

"I will, I will!" Xia Chujue exclaimed, "My dad taught me when I was a child, but my godfather said I was born with it!" ”

The poppy also said, "Me too!" Yaya Aoki taught me, and the coal boss and Ran also taught me! ”

"That game was like lucid dreaming," Summer said. ”

"What's the fun about that? We'll do it ourselves! Xia Chujue said.

Summer said: "But the space for lucid dreams is so small, Uncle Aoki said that it has something to do with our spiritual power, and if our mental power is very strong, the dream space will be very large." Moreover, every dream we have is different, and every time we want to change the dream, it is also very mentally draining. Don't dream too often and consume mental energy, then people will be very tired, and it will be easy to be distracted in class during the day, so be careful of being called by the director to lecture! ”

Like a little adult, he warned the two little girls that the aristocratic school they attended was indeed very strict in its management.

"But the game is different. Every time you go in, the space from last time is still there, and you can continue to dream and expand in the original space, and that world will become bigger and bigger. I now feel that the castle I built is real, and my mother lives there. When I want to go to see my mother, I put on my helmet and go to the castle to meet my mother, just like I can go home after school every day. ”

Poppy listened and was moved: "Is it really so amazing?" So if I build a dam for my nephew, can I put on a helmet and go home, and I can see Gong Nkun sitting in the yard smoking, and I can be with my parents? ”

Xia Chujue also said: "Then can I also go back to the island every day and meet my parents?" ”

Summer said, "Of course you can! And you can also have pets, anything, cats, dogs, penguins, dinosaurs...... Anyway, as long as you want it, you can. ”

"Ah, then I'm going to raise dolphins, and I'm going to raise three dragons!" Meimei said excitedly.

"I'm going to raise ...... A bird like the coal boss! The poppy was a little embarrassed, but said it anyway.

Summer Hehe smiled: "I also have one, and I often ride it to fly!" ”
