"Miss Phantom, it's a pleasure to see you again." Howard smacked himself up from his chair. After waving his hand for the secretary to step down, Stark went to the wine cabinet and poured two glasses of wine.

Tang Shi walked to the side of the sofa and sat down, looking leisurely. Howard walked over with a wine glass, Tang Shi took it, took a sip, and said, "Howard, it seems that the research is going well." ”

"As you can see, the dream has entered the mass production stage, but due to technical reasons, the current production capacity is still not enough." Howard said with a smile.

Tang Shi asked a little puzzled: "Technical reasons?" What do you mean? ”

Howard explained: "It's not a big problem, it's mainly due to upstream supply constraints for some of the raw materials needed for Dream Manufacturing, and I've already taken care of it, and I'm sure it will be solved soon." ”

Tang Shi nodded, put down the wine glass in his hand and said, "That's good." Now take us to the study, Howard. ”

"My pleasure." Howard responded with a gentlemanly smile.

Then Howard took Tang Shi to Stark Industries' experimental center, and the two chatted along the way, Howard obviously intentionally or unintentionally inquired about Tang Shi and the secret behind it. Tang Shi was perfunctory, and the two of them soon came to the laboratory.

In the laboratory, the staff in white robes were busy, and when they saw the arrival of the big boss, these people did not say anything at all.

Howard was not surprised, and led Tang Shi straight to a room. Entering the room, there are also many experimenters conducting research, and there is a device of about 1 cubic meter in the middle of the room.

"This is the latest generation of Dream 2.0 that is being studied, and it is different from the Dream on the market today, it is smaller and consumes less power, but it brings a stronger feeling." Stark said with some pride in his tone.

Tang Shi looked at this Dream 2.0, from the outside, this machine looked like an iron box, the slight difference was that this iron box had various buttons and wires.

Howard picked up the electrode patch attached to the Dream 2.0 and said, "So far, the electrode patch is the most effective. As for the helmet-mounted attachment device you envisioned, the effect is not too good at the moment, and the limitations are too great. ”

"What's wrong?" Tang Shi asked.

Hearing this, Howard motioned to the experimenter next to him to take a helmet attachment device and said, "You see, because there is no electrode patch, it is difficult for the stimulation of the human body to reach the ideal threshold. In short, if used for a long time, the helmet can cause irreversible damage to the brain of ordinary people. ”

Tang Shi thought for a moment and asked, "Is it serious?" ”

"Whether it's serious or not depends on the individual." Howard looked a little serious and said: "Mild cases can cause insomnia, but severe cases may cause memory loss and even dementia." ”

"Dementia?" Tang Shi was very surprised and said, "So powerful? ”

Howard nodded and said, "Yes, although this consequence is only theoretical, we can't rule out this risk. ”

"Isn't there a risk with the patch?"

Howard put the helmet down and said with a smile: "Electrode patches are also risky, but the probability is extremely low. ”

Tang Shi bowed slightly, this is the result of the lesser of two powers, but Tang Shi didn't care about this, so he said: "They are all risky, but the helmet-style connection method is more technological, isn't it?" ”

Howard was stunned when he heard this, and said, "That's what I said, but ......"

"Nothing, but, Howard. Since risks are unavoidable, why not seek to maximize profits? With that, Tang Shi picked up the helmet and said, "What's more, I don't think this thing is so risky. ”

"Let's try it." Tang Shi said as he put his helmet on his head.

Howard looked hesitant, but eventually he put his helmet on his head as well and said, "As you wish, Miss." ”

The two of them walked to the side of the experimental recliner and lay down, and Howard said to the staff next to him, "Let's start." ”

"Yes, sir." The experimenters were ready to go, after all, it was Howard Stark, their big boss, who was lying there, and they didn't want anything to go wrong.

"Connection preparation, voltage commissioning, normal."

"Pathway adaptation, normal."

"Brainwave acquisition, normal."

"Countdown ready, 10, 9, 8,...... 3，2，1。 Begin! ”

As the start sounded, the indicator light on the dream machine suddenly flashed in an orderly manner, and the rate became faster and faster, until finally the green indicator stopped flashing and remained bright for three seconds.

And these short three seconds seemed like a blink of an eye to Tang Shi on the recliner.

When Tang Shi 'opened his eyes' again, he saw that there was a vast expanse of whiteness, this was an infinite space without boundaries, and everything was boundless.

"It's too easy, isn't it?" Tang Shi muttered to himself.

But I heard Howard's voice behind him, and said: "This is just a primary scene, the actual mountain, we can preset a variety of scenes." ”

Speaking of this, Howard waved his hand a little proudly, and the entire space underwent earth-shaking changes, and countless high-rise buildings, sky, earth, and even creatures suddenly appeared in the originally white space.

"Huh? Is there a living thing? Tang Shi said in surprise.

But I heard Howard say with a smile: "Actually, they are just props, and there are no other living creatures in the whole space except for you and me." ”

"You're saying they're not conscious?" Tang Shi looked at the pedestrians talking and laughing around him, and felt quite curious.

Howard laughed and said, "Yes, none of them are conscious. But we can give them awareness, like this. ”

Howard said and pointed not far away, only to see that the surrounding scene suddenly became noisy, really like a bustling city.

"These are all preset character templates, which can achieve 90% simulation and meet most social attributes." Howard waved his hand again, and all the characters seemed to freeze in frame, standing in place in a daze.

Tang Shi pursed his lips and said, "Very interesting setting." Are there any other features besides these? ”

"At present, only the scene can be preset, and the custom function is not perfect." Howard said with some regret.

"That's pretty good, too. It's already a good gift. Tang Shi spread out his palms as he spoke. I saw a flame appear in the palm of his hand.

"Gifts?" Howard was puzzled.

……

With Howard's Dream 2.0, Tang Shi left Stark Industries and returned to reality. Without too much dwelling, he returned directly to reality.

Thank you for the happiness of the book friend on the right side of the barren people and the reward of this nickname~~
