Chapter 184 The feeling at this time is invincible! (Third update)
Seeing that the popularity data of Jinghai City was not only surpassed by several first-tier cities, but also by many second-tier cities, everyone present could not sit still.
The popularity of virtual cities is, on the one hand, compared to the city's heritage. Super first-tier cities have naturally large populations, high visibility, and many landmark buildings, so they have natural advantages in this regard.
On the other hand, the comparison is the research and development level of various research institutes and the promotion of virtual cities.
A group of these people must be very confident in their own research and development capabilities, so the biggest problem is likely to be publicity.
They quickly clicked on the details page of the promotion to view it.
Compared with other first-tier cities, the promotion of Jinghai Virtual City does seem to be very lacking. Of course, this cannot be said to be because Jinghai’s publicity personnel are irresponsible. The main reason is that Jinghai does not actually have a very clear city business card.
.
Imperial Capital, Magic Capital, Yangcheng and Jingzhou all have very clear city business cards.
Magic City is a city that focuses on young people. It is an international metropolis with high-end western style and is in line with the world.
Jingzhou is a city of games, and many of the buildings there are naturally designed for games. You don’t even need to change anything, and they can be used directly in the virtual city to achieve very good results.
In reality, Jinghai does not have such a city card. Although the cultural and entertainment industry here is relatively developed, it is far from enough to clearly distinguish it from other cities.
After all, when it comes to the entertainment industry, the Imperial Capital, the Magic Capital, or some cities in the south are not bad at all.
Jinghai's overall publicity plan is relatively conventional, and it just talks about the city's historical and cultural evolution, iconic landmarks, etc.
Han Qi lamented: "I said at the time that this publicity plan wouldn't work, right? It's too conventional and won't attract others at all. We need to do something new and unique!"
The staff member next to him was silent for a moment and said, "Brother Han, they seem to have really done something new and unique. Do you think this martial arts holy land... was added later?"
"Martial Arts Holy Land?"
Everyone was a little surprised. They looked at the second half of the promotional materials and found out that there was a label for a martial arts holy land in the promotional materials of Virtual Jinghai!
“Jinghai City has a rich martial arts cultural heritage since ancient times, and among some people, it has the reputation of being a holy land of martial arts.
"In the virtual Jinghai, you can go to Jianghu Square or Longtan Park to make friends with martial arts and compete with martial arts masters from all over the world. Let go of your hands and feet in the virtual world and improve your fighting skills as much as possible through hearty actual combat.
Skill!
“Among them, Jianghu Square is the fighting area, where both parties can agree on rules and compete.
"Longtan Park is a completely unrestricted fighting area. If you enter this area, you will accept the fighting challenge by default. You must be ready to withstand attacks from any direction and anyone at any time.
"In order to ensure that you can get the best experience in the martial arts holy land of Virtual Jinghai, we have carefully prepared relevant supporting facilities for you.
"The ambulance is on call 24 hours a day to ensure that you can be sent to the hospital for treatment at any time after losing the ability to move. All treatments are free, solving your worries!"
This content stunned everyone.
They also roughly knew the official promotional plan before. Generally speaking, it was very different from the current version.
But the section about the Holy Land of Martial Arts was added later!
I have to say that there are really too many flaws in this promotional material.
Has a profound cultural heritage of martial arts since ancient times? And has a reputation as a holy land of martial arts? This is too forceful!
Jinghai has never had any martial arts celebrities in its history, let alone its own original martial arts.
Of course, if you have to search hard, you can always find a few that are less well-known and barely relevant.
But compared with those famous martial arts hometowns across the country, Jinghai is a tough one no matter how you look at it!
An ambulance is also on standby 24 hours a day to ensure that it can be sent to the hospital for treatment at any time?
In the virtual city, entering the hospital is just a formality, and there is no need for actual treatment. Just restore the health data. The establishment of hospitals and ambulances in the virtual city is to increase the degree of realism on the one hand, and on the other hand it is also a formality.
In order to put some restrictions on player behavior mechanically.
Just like some modern urban-themed immersive games, there will be similar designs.
In short, this is not really support. Can other virtual cities also do this? Is it necessary to talk about it?
Of course, the biggest drawback is the opening of Jianghu Square and Longtan Park as venues for competitions.
That's it for Longtan Park. After all, it's just a park. Although the location is good, it's not particularly important.
But Jianghu Plaza is one of the core business districts of Jinghai. It is also an important landmark in the virtual city. The nearby shops and attractions are centered around it, attracting a high flow of people.
Originally, the Jinghai Research Institute had been arguing internally about what kind of activities should be arranged at Jianghu Square, and no conclusion had been reached. The people in one group were not high enough to intervene. Although they had some ideas, they could not deliver them.
Go up.
We can only hope that the institute can make proper arrangements.
As a result, after much anticipation, the people above actually only thought about a martial arts competition?
This is already a society governed by the rule of law, so why are we still imitating the ancient society’s practice of fighting in a ring?
Everyone couldn't help but sigh.
"Who approved this revised plan? Isn't this nonsense? We still have many cultural industries in Jinghai. Any plan that can be used as the core of publicity is better than martial arts!"
"It's hard to say who made the publicity plan, but it was definitely Dean Bai who made the final decision."
"Dean Bai is so confused. How could he pass such a plan, especially the martial arts holy land? It's just nonsense!" Han Qi said sadly.
Although Jinghai’s virtual city itself is not very competitive, if the publicity plan is well implemented, there is still hope to squeeze into the circle of those super first-tier cities.
But now the holy land of martial arts has been chosen as the city’s business card? Now everyone’s performance bonuses are completely gone.
In addition to one group, I don’t know how many other staff members involved in the research and development of virtual cities also lamented the unreliability of this publicity plan.
Dean Bai is confused!
…
At the same time, Lu Zhixing was already lying in the VR game cabin, preparing to enter the virtual city of Jinghai.
The official has opened the corresponding interface, and the login method is the same as logging in to regular virtual reality games.
There are still two login methods, VR glasses and VR game cabin. Most players still choose the former, and only a few people have VR game cabin.
Although the official has launched a consumer version of the VR game cabin, after all, the price is high and not everyone can afford it. In comparison, high-quality and low-priced VR glasses are more suitable for ordinary consumers.
However, the VR game cabin has a huge advantage over VR glasses: it can scan the player's real clothes and physical fitness in reality and put them into the virtual world.
This technology was used in the motion capture competition held by Jinghai Research Institute before.
However, this advantage is only limited to those players with better physical fitness in reality.
In the fast-paced modern society, most people's bodies are in a sub-healthy state. Such people probably only account for 20 to 30% of the total population.
And Lu Zhixing's current physical fitness is obviously among the top few.
This time when entering the virtual city, Lu Zhixing came prepared.
First, he changed his clothes.
Previously, Lu Zhixing also considered buying a training suit online, preferably white, so that he would look more like a martial arts master, but after thinking about it, this thing is still not very practical.
In fact, the only advantage of training clothes is that they are looser and more flexible. But after all, they are clothes prepared for regular fighting.
Lu Zhixing's set of Xingyiquan has many moves that can exert maximum lethality only when paired with specific equipment.
For example, he has to prepare a pair of pointed-toed sneakers with good quality and a relatively hard head, so that he can maximize the lethality of his kicks.
At present, in the virtual city, the basic rules restrict the appearance of various controlled knives, and more lethal things, such as guns, are even less likely to appear.
Unless you invade like a hacker, in that case you will be immediately hit hard by official security personnel.
However, some things that are within the limits of the rules are beyond the control of the official. And these props are also extremely lethal when used properly.
Pointed-toe sneakers are one of them.
In terms of lethality, pointed leather shoes will be more effective, after all, leather shoes are harder.
But Lu Zhixing also has to consider other factors.
For example, he must ensure mobility. He must be able to run away quickly when there are too many opponents, and his movements during rock climbing and parkour must not be affected.
So as a compromise, I can only find a pair of special sports shoes with a relatively hard head texture.
Perhaps because of its weird shape, this thing is quite expensive, costing Lu Zhixing more than 500 yuan.
In addition, Lu Zhixing also prepared some other equipment, such as knee pads, elbow pads, wrist pads, hip pads, waist pads, etc.
Lu Zhixing also discovered these protective gears while browsing a shopping website, and was quickly shocked by the variety of them.
Some are protective clothing for motorcycles, and some are special protective equipment for roller skating and other sports.
They are basically made of special materials, have good fit, are breathable, have strong anti-collision properties, and have excellent protective properties.
In particular, there is a hip protection suit, which also provides special thickened protection for the buttocks and crotch, which makes Lu Zhixing deeply feel that technological progress has changed life.
Of course, even such protective gear could not block Lu Zhixing's kick, but if Lu Zhixing put it on himself, it could greatly reduce the lethality of similar moves by others.
I hit others to break their defenses, and others hit me to make me feel helpless. This is to highlight the lack of martial ethics.
Of course, the protective suits chosen by Lu Zhixing are relatively thin and close-fitting. Although the protective performance will be lower than those of heavy-duty protective gear, the advantage is that it can be worn under loose clothes and is not so conspicuous.
Soon, Lu Zhixing was ready, dressed neatly, and entered the virtual capital.
There are only two words to describe his feeling at this time.
