Ren Hong's statement made Kang Tao, a person in the system, very happy, and the research of the "virtual world" in the national think tank combined with Ren Hong's own description finally came to a conclusion: the terminator and successor of the Internet.

Obviously, no country will allow a single company to control the entire network, let alone the world. Ren Hong is also very aware of this, and has never thought of managing and operating it himself, the country, the government and the authorities like to manage and manage the most, so leave it to them, and it will only be better than you, why not?

In Ren Hong's view, the "virtual world" is a "product" launched by Matrix Technology for the world, and how to use the "product" after selling it is the user's business, which has little to do with Matrix Technology, and what the company has to do is to do a good job in the after-sales service of the "product".

It's important to put yourself in the right place.

This is obviously the best of both worlds, with the company making money and earning the title of creator's reputation, properly reaping both fame and fortune. The state will not give you stumbling blocks and wearing small shoes behind your back, whether it is at home or abroad, and only in this way can the virtual world be truly accepted by the whole world.

With the existence of the third special group, the communication efficiency between Matrix Technology and the country is not generally smooth, after all, it goes directly to Beijing.

After a full afternoon of detailed discussions, Kang Tao left the headquarters with a satisfactory result.

In the next period of time, Ren Hong's energy and focus will be all on the "virtual world" project plan.

The next day, he came to the "Virtual World" project team again, which occupies two floors of the entire 'Cape of Good Hope area' of the X Building, which is the largest project team, which is enough to show the huge size of this project.

From the very beginning of the "virtual world" project to build the initial team until today, the investment in research and development has burned more than 30 billion US dollars in just four years, although countless dollars have been burned, but through technologies such as "panoramic vision PV", in fact, the "virtual world" project team has already begun to make profits.

"Who is the current person in charge?" Ren Hong said a word after arriving at the project team. The person in charge was originally Zhang Han, but he had already started his trip to Canada yesterday, and some of the affairs of the project team were also explained to others.

"It's my boss!" One of his friends, Zuo Wang, came to him, "Brother Zhang has gone to Canada, and I am the current project acting leader. ”

Ren Hong nodded lightly and said, "Has the origin version been determined?" ”

The so-called Source version refers to the client that the user needs to use to connect to the virtual world, i.e., the perception headset.

"The origin version of the client has been established, and the design, kernel, hardware, etc. are all up to standard, and we can be fully mass-produced just waiting for the production line to be established." Zuo Wang, who followed Ren Hong's side, responded succinctly.

He added, "At present, the construction of the production line has started a week ago, a total of 6 production lines, and it is expected that 6 production lines will be opened in 260 days, and then the full production of the origin version of the client will be possible." ”

Ren Hong listened to his report and nodded his head one by one, "How many shipments will be available in three years?" ”

Zuo Wang estimated for a moment and replied: "In three years, it takes eight or nine months to open up a production line, and it will take more than two years to remove this part of the time, and the annual shipment is about 14 million sets, and the shipment volume is about 30 million sets in three years!" ”

"30 million ......" Ren Hong also roughly weighed it in his heart for a moment, nodded slightly to himself, and muttered: "30 million sets is enough to meet the popularization needs of the first stage." ”

"The other is ......," Zuo Wang added: "The client cost of the Source Edition has been suppressed to the extreme, and it still does not reach below $4,000, and the final minimum cost of each client can only be compressed to $4,260." ”

"It's pretty much enough, you can't guarantee the quality and rather raise the cost." Ren Hong reminded.

"Understood!"

The current "virtual world" project is planned to be launched on the market in three years according to the expected plan, and the time is almost tight to the extreme, although there has been a four-year project research and development period, but almost in the improvement of the means of production and the improvement of core technology, the construction of base stations, the production and manufacturing of hardware, the laying of virtual network hardware, etc., almost useless to start.

Three years is still very compact.

……

Burnaby City, Vancouver, Canada.

Zhang Han's purpose in sending to Canada this time is very clear - quantum computers.

The data storage center equipped with conventional computers simply cannot "accommodate" the powerful data of the virtual world, and its huge computing and processing and space requirements cannot be done by conventional computers. You must know that even the "supercomputing L", which currently ranks first in the world's computing and processing capacity, carries an incomparably streamlined virtual space, and it can't even last for 200 seconds.

At this moment, in Burnaby, a satellite city of Vancouver, Canada, D-Wave CEO Fern Brown. Braunel and several executives appeared outside the company's headquarters.

D-Wave recently received a request from Matrix Technologies, a huge company in the world. Braunel was undoubtedly very surprised, although D-Wave is a leader in the industry, but in the face of such a huge capital, awe is indispensable, you must know that D-Wave is currently worth only around $8 billion, although the company is in a field that seems high, but in the face of capital, any field is equal.

Even Wall Street can't give an exact valuation of Matrix Tech today, and if there is a valuation, Matrix Tech will be priceless because he is labeled as the "future", and the future is priceless.

At this moment, Zhang Han was not on the way to D-Wave, and an executive standing outside the gate asked Braunel: "Sir, do you think XlouS wants to invest in our company when he comes to D-Wave this time?" ”

"Investment is unlikely, the government will not easily agree to foreign investment, the United States will not agree, after all, XlouS is a Chinese company, and the quantum field is a cutting-edge technology, but the other party's visit must be for the quantum computer." Braunel affirmed. He is still a little proud in his heart at the moment, Matrix Technology is the world's most famous technology giant, which of its products does not affect the current human lifestyle, can be favored by such a giant, and can also reflect the value and future of D-Wave from the side.
