Chapter 235: Virtual Real Network
On Saturday the second day, all the employees of Wisdom Cube Digital Entertainment Company consciously worked overtime and returned to the office according to the working time.
Although Li Hao said that he wanted to try the online game voluntarily came back, Li Ying and Bai Ling, the company's decision-makers were all present, were they embarrassed to be absent? Usually you work hard, **oss may not know, today has the opportunity to dangle in front of **oss more, naturally you can't miss the opportunity.
You know, the current employees of digital entertainment companies may become veterans in the near future, who wants to lose points in front of the boss? Even the people of the group also came, including Pan Bin, Juanjuan, and Yao Wenwen.
Since it is better to lie down when playing games with helmets, the company transferred a bus to pull all the people to the hotel in the town. I have chartered more than a dozen hourly rooms in the hotel.
Li Hao asked the robot bodyguard to give each person a game helmet, and said: "There is a switch on the side of the helmet, everyone lie down**, press the start switch, and then relax the whole body, just like you usually sleep, wait for a while, you can enter the virtual real network in two or three minutes, and I will talk about the next steps in the network." Well, see you in the network! ”
Yao Wenwen was holding a game helmet, a little excited and looking forward to it, but she saw Li Ying beckoning to her: "Wenwen, come and share a room with me and Sister Bai." ”
"Mr. Li," Yao Wenwen walked over.
Li Ying smiled: "You are not from the company, don't call me Mr. Li." I'm older than you, you can just call me Sister Li or Sister Ying. ”
"Okay, then I'll call you Sister Ying."
"Well, let's go, let's try this game and see if it's as good as my brother's blowing. Sister Bai and I don't play games much, you are a master, you can get started quickly, you will teach us to play when the time comes. ”
"No problem, but this game is completely different from the others, I don't know if I can play it well, maybe I need Sister Ying to teach me."
They chose a room with three beds, Yao Wenwen helped Li Ying and Bai Ling put on their helmets, watched them turn on the switch, and then put on the helmet and lay down on **, closed their eyes, relaxed their whole body, and pressed the switch.
After about ten seconds, Yao Wenwen only felt that her whole body seemed to float, and a light appeared in front of her eyes.
The white brilliance dissipated, as if in a thick fog area, the fog suddenly dispersed, and the scenery in front of me appeared. I stood on a soft lawn, which stretched to the horizon and met the blue sky. The grass on the ground is like the kind planted in a football field, flat and soft, and the whole land is like an endless green blanket.
The sky was as blue as a wash, the white clouds were wafting, the air was exceptionally fresh, and the gentle breeze blew a few strands of hair across the face, and it felt exactly like the real world.
Yao Wenwen was completely stunned, she squatted, reached out and touched the grass on the ground, pulled off a piece of grass and rubbed it, put it between her nose and sniffed it, smelling a faint fragrance of grass.
"Yes, I came in so soon." A voice came from behind her, Yao Wenwen turned around and saw Li Hao standing more than ten meters away from her.
"Mr. Li, I'm in the game scene right now? It's so completely real that I can't tell it's any different from the real world at all. By the way, what about the others? ”
"Other people will come in soon, and you have good mental and psychological qualities, so you can come in faster than ordinary people. We haven't entered the Galaxy game yet, this is in a virtual real network, and we have to initialize it with a super account. ”
Li Hao gestured with both hands in the air, his fingers kept beating like playing a piano, and he seemed to be making menus and instructions that Yao Wenwen couldn't see.
The lawn rises up a circular staircase, and after a few steps is a circular platform, on which a faint light shoots into the sky. The words "play space" appeared in the beam.
Li Hao continued to work, and successively generated four high platforms, in which "private space", "meeting space", "shopping space", and "setting and exiting" floated in the pillars of light.
At this time, the white light on the lawn shimmered, and the company employees appeared one after another, and they were amazed by the surrounding environment one by one. Three minutes later, the entire staff was on the lawn.
Li Ying pulled out a few blades of grass, put them in her hands and blew them away, and said to Bai Ling beside her: "Sister Bai, do you dare to believe it, these are actually virtual." ”
Bai Ling smiled: "After listening to Mr. Li's words, I raised my expectations again and again, but this is even more perfect than I imagined. No wonder Mr. Li takes this project so seriously, it is also a technology that changes the world. Digital entertainment is going to make a lot of money, and it is estimated that it will surpass the 'tutor' software and become the second source of profit after Yaochi Yuye. ”
Li Hao clapped his palms and said, "Okay, everyone is in." This is a virtual real network, not a Galaxy game yet, but the game is built on this online platform. These five high platforms have similar functions to the teleportation array, and when you step on the high platform of the 'game space', you will officially log in to the "Galaxy" game. Walk up to the 'Set & Exit' platform to set the parameters of the immersive network, or you can exit from the menu there and wake up in the real world.
"At this time, everyone's body is in a deeper sleep, and if someone is going to wake you up in reality, or the alarm clock goes off, you can hear or feel it here or in the Galaxy game, and you can choose to quit. If in reality, if someone pushes you hard or slaps your face, these strong arousal methods will make you quit directly. ”
Pan Bin looked at the high platforms and asked, "Brother Hao, what about the private space, the reception space, and the shopping space?" ”
Li Hao said: "This is a paid item of the virtual real network, helmet users can spend money to buy these services, and the private space is a luxury villa, with swimming pools, hot springs, tennis courts, golf courses, ski slopes and so on." As long as you're willing to spend money, you can move Jiuzhaigou to the left of your villa, the Blue Lagoon in Iceland to the right of your villa, and the ski resort in the Alps behind your villa.
"If you don't like the boss, you can let him appear in the martial arts arena in your villa and let you punch and kick him; If you think Abe is a hateful face, you can put him in the shooting range of the villa and let you shoot. In the karaoke hall of the villa, you can call Liu Yifei and Fan Bingbing to sing a few songs with you. In the villa kitchen, you can summon Huang Rong and Wanwan to stir-fry a few dishes for you. You can argue with Li Yingqiong in the living room, or go to the garden to watch Yang Yuhuan dance "Dance of Neon Clothes and Feathers". ”
Pan Bin was almost drooling, "This is a beautiful life!" ”
Juanjuan pinched him hard, "Do you really want to see Yang Yuhuan dance?" ”
"Ah no, sizzle, Brother Hao, can the pain be lowered."
"Yes, just adjust it on the 'Set & Exit' platform. When Juanjuan asks you to kneel on the washboard, you won't have to work so hard! ”
Li Ying asked, "What about that reception space, what's the use?" ”
"The reception space can be set up as a teahouse, café or something, where you can meet and chat with friends from other places, or you can set up a bar and have a drink or two with friends. But the premise is that both of them are on the simulation network. This kind of face-to-face communication is much more cordial than a mobile phone. There will definitely be a charge for using the meeting space, and the tariff should be set higher. ”
Bai Ling said: "That shopping space, as the name suggests, is a shopping mall where you can buy things?" ”
Li Hao smiled: "Yes, we can negotiate with Taobao, JD.com, Amazon, eBay, Wal-Mart and other online shopping companies to introduce goods into the shopping space for customers to buy." If a customer selects to buy, the order is sent directly back to the online shopping company, which will ship it. This is much better than traditional shopping sites, where you can try on clothes and smell perfumes, which is similar to offline shopping. Even food can be tasted first, which is not possible in reality.
"Of course, we can't work for nothing, we have to take a commission of 2 to 5 percent of the sales from the order. Of course, there is still a lot of work to be done, including commercial negotiations, including technical preparations. ”
Bai Ling thought for a while and said, "Our 'tutor' has vocational education, can we introduce a simulated network?" Training in practical skills like hairstylists, chefs, seems to be more effective here. ”
"This can be, like learning to swim or driving, it can be carried out in the immersive network. I learned it here, and when I get back to the real world, I can really learn it with just a little bit of adaptation. ”
Bai Ling's eyes blinked, and she said, "Also, can you plant advertisements and charge advertising fees?" ”
Li Hao muttered: "Don't implant ads in the game, that will weaken the realism of the future world." It's okay to put up a few billboards on this lawn, but not too many so as not to disturb the landscape. By the way, when the player comes in, he's the only one on the lawn. ”
Li Hao doesn't care much about the small money of advertising, and it is impossible for it to have a bad impact on "Galaxy".
After the launch of this virtual real network, it is necessary to control the application, otherwise the impact on the real world economy will be too great. For example, the meeting space does not cost anything at all, but if it is not charged, it is likely to collapse many telecommunications companies. Li Hao had no choice but to charge ten times the phone bill, and took the high-end route.
It's true that technology is changing the world, but it can't be too drastic, because if it suddenly impacts the original economic system too much, causing a lot of unemployment, it will cause a lot of problems.
Virtual real network is a new generation of Internet technology, just like the rise of the Internet, which has an extremely far-reaching impact on human society.
Bai Ling originally thought that the "Galaxy" project was an online game, but now she realized that she was wrong. The "private space", "meeting space" and "shopping space" alone can bring huge profits to the company. From a purely commercial point of view, important surnames are not under the Galaxy game.
What's more, with the improvement of the immersive network, there will continue to be "learning spaces" and the like, and the scope of services can continue to expand to every corner of daily life. This is another cash cow of the Wisdom Rubik's Cube, just like Yaochi Jade Liquid, a complete technological monopoly and irreplaceable. (To be continued.) )
