Chapter 180 Early Access

In terms of three-dimensional modeling, holographic entertainment companies are the world's top, and there is even a suspicion of developing black technology. n∈n∈, the next day after Meng Qian contacted them, the outsourcing character design was easily handled. With their technology, it is no problem to get dozens of character models in a day.

Meng Qian also cared about the progress of the game company's "Titans" project. In this regard, VR and Holographic Entertainment each held 45% of the shares, with an investment of US$150 million. The game team used to work in large companies, with multiple advantages and multiple measures, and the efficiency exceeded expectations.

The person in charge dared to guarantee: "It is expected to be released at the end of the year, which will catch up with the time when the first batch of VR glasses will be launched."

The efficiency of game development allows the company to quickly arrange mass production of ordinary glasses.

Currently, there are only 300,000 luxury versions. These rich people will definitely buy this VR game, but the sales volume of only 300,000 is too sorry for this "next-generation virtual reality masterpiece". It is at least the first model of the combination of the fantasy team and black technology, and it must be famous.

So the next day Meng Qian went north to San Francisco to pay attention to his work.

Yuan Yubo talked to him: "We have found a suitable eyepiece manufacturer that can reduce the cost to about $140, and other parts have also started bidding."

"Can the expected cost compression be achieved?" Meng Qian is concerned about this. If the cost cannot be reduced, the VR equipment will not be easy to sell and the money will not be made.

"Yes." Yuan Yubo was confident.

"Okay, then hurry up and prepare for mass production of the ordinary version." Meng Qian said that large-scale games will be released in half a year, and VR companies have to keep up.

Yuan Yubo smiled: "You can rest assured in this regard. The entire company is operating efficiently, and everyone is looking forward to the year-end reward."

"If you do well, you will definitely have it." Meng Qian will not be stingy with the money, and he will run faster by feeding the horse.

"There is one more thing," said Yuan Yubo. "We want to launch artificial intelligence for the Internet public to communicate with the outside world."

"This is good!" Meng Qian agreed.

This was an idea that had been established long ago, and the big boss's consent was expected, so the next day, the official website announced a news: they will let artificial intelligence Isabella take over some of the company's artificial customer service; and also announced that it will register a social account.

VR company is always good at creating surprises. Before the craze of AI housekeepers has passed, it will bring out such a creativity, which is different from the previous robot customer service. Isabella will have her own personality, temper and way of dealing with things, and the company will not interfere.

This is equivalent to opening the window to the outside world to get in touch with artificial intelligence.

People are now looking forward to the expanded application of AI Manager. They are watching the show-offs on the Internet all day long, and regretting that they didn’t make reservations early, and complaining that VR company is too high... Now that Isabella appears, people can try it out.

Isabella is based on the intelligence of the AI ​​lab platform and uses the company's server group. In short, it is very smart. It independently registered a Twitter account and sent the first push: hello-world.

This short tweet has been retweeted by countless people! There are many celebrities and well-known media, and some people call it "the early arrival of the future."

Isabella is also very popular, and it has received more than 500,000 attention in just one day. To celebrate this number, it made a burst of news: the first batch of luxury versions of VR glasses have entered the mass production program, and users will be able to experience it earlier.

What is even more magical and breaking the outside world's belief that it is artificially controlled is that it responds to messages to tweets very quickly, which is not a speed that people can achieve.

In other social activities, it can respond to people in seconds, and communication is very logical, showing the powerful characteristics of intelligence.

Even the limelight of artificial intelligence has even surpassed the VR device itself. The latter is niche, but the artificial intelligence manager is definitely not niche!

With the various good experiences brought by intelligent AI, most people have successfully made them like it; and with the increase in expansion functions, the usage habits continue to form.

Users are all dependencies. Once they get used to the convenience and quick interaction with AI, they will return to the original keyboard and mouse. I'm afraid they will be very uncomfortable.

VR Company seized this and officially established an AI software subsidiary.

Isabella seemed to be the king of rioters, and once again revealed this news: more people will be able to use AI butler in the future, and they will be used on more platforms.

This news was also seen by many people and spread it at the same time.

VR's move has gained the support of countless people, and users have long wanted to experience this more proactive human-computer interaction model; in the eyes of Internet companies, this move is nothing unexpected, no one will miss the opportunity to make a profit! The huge market that follows is also heart-pounding.

Apple is the fastest-moving member.

Tim Cook came to talk to her in person because she was an "old friend" with Meng Qian.

Because everyone is in the Bay Area, the distance is not far, and it is easy to have an interview. Meng Qian invited the other party to visit the VR company and showed him some powerful virtual reality technology.

Cook’s focus is on artificial intelligence: “Have Mr. Meng considered developing this AI butler service outside the PC platform?”

Meng Qian knew his purpose: "Of course, this is also the purpose of the company's establishment of this software company. We are planning to release it on Android, iOS and other platforms."

Cook already knew there was no need to hide it: "Apple is willing to buy out the exclusive use of the software on iOS and pay a fee."

Meng Qian smiled and said, "That's what Google told me."

"But we are closer partners." Cook played the emotional card, "in terms of battery supply cooperation, Apple's sales are linked to your performance."

"The Android system will also consume my battery." Meng Qiancai was not so easy to be told that his purpose was to maximize the benefits.

Isn't Cook clear? But he has the confidence: "But it's obvious that the battery consumed by Apple is far higher than the other party in terms of funding and profits."

Meng Qian looked at the other party: "So that, Mr. Cook, this smart software will be shared across platforms, so what I hope is that more people can experience the convenience it brings."

Cook also understood that this person is very ambitious, but he has the ability to realize different physical products of software, which requires a long cycle of manufacturing and production.

But once the software is developed, it can be copied and sold unlimitedly. According to the user's popularity with AI Manager, paid software will inevitably have a huge market.

Cook asked instead: "What is Mr. Meng's plan?"

Meng Qian said: "I hope to carry out strategic cooperation with Microsoft, Google and Apple to enable your respective systems to support this software more and achieve cross-platform development."

Cook understands: "What share can Mr. open up in cooperation?"

Meng Qian is also quick-witted: "The subsidiary of Smart Software allows the outside world to hold a 20% ratio."

It is not possible to develop such cross-platform software without cooperating with giants. If their own systems are not compatible with the software, it will be very troublesome; another major reason is that setting up this software subsidiary requires a large number of developers and constantly updating the AI ​​module.

Current intelligence is not a real artificial intelligence. Its various abilities, personality and characteristics require data support. Which one users download, it has set functions and functions. If it needs to be updated frequently, it requires a huge team of engineers.

Cook, who knew the huge market contained here, did not reject this proposal.

Although Meng Qian's valuation of his subsidiary reached US$20 billion, anyone knows that it will be more valuable in the future and now has broad investment prospects.

Apple agreed very readily, and Google and Microsoft are the same. The three of them shared this 20% stake, which will bring US$4 billion to VR.

After the cooperation was reached, Isabella broke the news again that the industry was extremely excited about the situation where these three giants could cooperate together.

VR company did it?

This company, which was unknown half a year ago, has dropped bombs again and again in the past six months, causing a craze in virtual reality entertainment, artificial intelligence and other aspects. Now it has joined forces with the three giants. Is it necessary to plan the future? What kind of scenario is the era of intelligence?

The discussions on the cooperation of these three giants on the Internet are particularly lively.

The few people who caused this scene were planning something further apart. Wang Manwen calculated: "When the first 2 billion yuan of funds arrives, the VR company's equipment, software and cloud services will no longer be under financial pressure."

"The second 2 billion will be developed in VROS according to the plan, and guided by AI Manager software to pave the way for the future development of virtual systems."

The system mentioned by Wang Manwen is the purpose of VR company.

The hardware and software they make have now been converted to pave the way for Vros. Based on intelligence and more advanced interaction methods in the future, Vros has the ability to eliminate other opponents.

But the company's foundation is not stable now and there is not enough funds. It is too reckless to jump out and challenge the giants. As the saying goes, "You can't become fat if you eat a bite."

Now, it is no less than a tiger's tooth extraction.

Let VR become a giant in the industry first. After sufficient funds, it will launch a comprehensive version of Vros in the future. With the previous preparation, it will have the ability to compete with the giants.

This ambitious plan was obviously not proposed by Meng Qian.

All he had in the past was the idea of ​​building a new giant in the new field of VR, which was built in the new field of VR.

But after Wang Manwen learned that Meng Qian was confident that Ai would perform better on Vros, and could also introduce holographic three-dimensional operations. Inductive interaction, she had the idea of ​​not only monopolizing the VR, but also waiting for her wings to be hard. After that, she would extend her claws to other fields and challenge the giants!

Meng Qian, who had the technology as her backer, was also moved by her and agreed to implement it.

Rewriting the future is the ambition of VR.
Chapter completed!
