This is a very classic press conference.
On the podium in front of a large screen, an old man with gray hair, wearing an unbranded black T-shirt and jeans, was talking to the people in the audience: "
When I was a child, I was particularly interested in computer games. I felt that gaming was another world, and I even imagined how I could live in this dreamlike world.
I have spent my whole life working on this childhood dream, and today, it finally came true.
This is our metaverse world!
Thank you for your support!
Without your love, I wouldn’t be able to hold on!”
When the old man said this, he was so excited that he burst into tears, and the audience burst into warm applause that lasted for a long time.
After a while, the applause gradually stopped, and countless photos of people's lives appeared on the screen behind the old man. He said emotionally to all the audience: "Thank you to the Life Foundation for your support, and thank you to all those who participated.
Volunteers for space development.
As pioneers, their great contributions are irreplaceable."
The audience once again burst into thunderous applause.
"Now, let me introduce our cross-generational product, "Blood Epidemic Remaining Life".
This is a world full of deadly viruses, where we will experience the struggle and fear of doomsday survivors.
The picture you are seeing now is a real machine demonstration picture extracted from the s46518 storage. The storage has been simulated for 2000 hours and is very stable.
Of course, in accordance with the Natural Persons Protection Law and previously signed agreements, we will permanently retain these early storage devices, hoping that the souls who enter the storage devices will live forever.
Don’t feel sad, everyone, maybe someone else is even happier than you are right now.”
There was a burst of laughter from the audience.
The old man snapped his fingers, and a platform rose from the stage. On the top of the platform was a cool-looking helmet.
"Look, this is the latest neural connection helmet. It allows us to enter the metaverse without stripping away our consciousness."
The applause from the audience was mixed with screams and cheers, and it lasted for a long time.

“This scientific expedition was very interesting.
This is a dead Level 0 civilization. It has been determined that this civilization was completely destroyed 340,000 years ago.
The reason why civilization was destroyed is unknown, but I think it may have something to do with their technological development path.
As we all know, all Level 1 civilizations develop in this order: conducting space exploration, obtaining mass-to-energy conversion energy, and creating mass-to-energy conversion weapons.
But this level 0 civilization is very interesting. They did it in reverse, first creating mass-energy conversion weapons, then obtaining mass-energy conversion energy, and finally, they were gone.
Until they were destroyed, they were unable to leave their native planet.
Yes, these idiots actually use mass-energy conversion weapons on their native planet.
The biggest gain this time was that I accidentally discovered a well-preserved simulated world.
Of course, this simulated world is very primitive, but the information stored in it is very interesting, so I put a lot of effort into recreating it using our technology.
However, I don’t know if the simulated world was a semi-finished product when it was created, or if part of the content was lost because it was too long ago. Anyway, this simulated world does not simulate the entire planet, but only a small area, but this is enough.
The most precious thing about the simulated world is that it perfectly represents the daily life of this civilized creature. To be honest, I have never seen a creature so eager to kill its own kind.
The civilization of this planet makes me feel a little scared.
What's even more interesting is that this simulated world would collapse on itself after running for a while, so that I had to restart it repeatedly.
Just when I thought this might be an unsolvable bug, I discovered that there is a special set of data in this simulated world that can be run on top of other data.
After each restart, the starting position of this special set of data can be relocated.
So I kept adjusting the starting position of this special data, and finally succeeded in making the simulation world run stably.
Now, I am sending this storage to you via transmitter. Please forward it to the museum upon receipt.
Oh, you don't have to worry about anything. The energy consumption of this memory is so low that it can be ignored. The additional battery can run it for 100,000 years.
Okay, I have completely explored this planet, and I am ready to launch the spacecraft and go to the next point.
Let’s talk again when we come back.
ps: I have adjusted the parameters. If the simulator crashes again, just restart it."
