Bei Gaoyang knew that his "game" was very popular, but he did not expect it to be so "popular".
At this time, he was reading several news items forwarded by "Xiao Liu".
"The metaverse game continues to ferment, and the 18-year-old youth went on a hunger strike for three days."
The news did not mention Canaan's name, but only said that a high school student went on a hunger strike at home because he did not receive a game device, praying that the game officials would see his "sincerity", and was finally admitted to the ICU ward...
"Violent crimes against Yuanverse access equipment have been frequent recently. A family of three...just because their son used a fake helmet to defraud, and the murderer believed it was real."

"Conspiracy theories are prevalent, and public opinion around the world is pointing to the "alien conspiracy" and demanding investigation..."

"At 8 a.m. on the 3rd... spokesperson Christina confirmed the existence of the Metaverse and stated that she had... expressed serious concerns and reiterated that on major matters related to the interests, security and well-being of all mankind... we have the right to know the truth
.”

There are many more behind.
"What do you want to say!?" Bei Gaoyang asked directly without looking.
"We are under a lot of pressure from all aspects, and I'm afraid we can't help you hide it for much longer."
"Hide it, why!?"
"...If your identity is exposed, you can't control what will happen. The worst result is...the public opinion and excuses for interfering. I'm afraid your recruitment of players in the country will be restricted by then."
Having said that, Bei Gaoyang couldn't help but not take it seriously.
In the final analysis, he is just an outsider with no foundation on earth and cannot solve this "worst case scenario" at all.
If the "game" is banned and the [Magic Network Access Device] is confiscated... the Magic Network is the only hope.
“Why does the “worst case scenario” happen?”
"This is very complicated to say. The simple summary is that out of their own interests... they have always been deeply hostile and wary of us. You and the... technology you represent will make them worry... thus causing them
Accelerating decline…”
What the hell!
His intuition told him that the other party did not lie to deceive him.
"The only way to satisfy them is to transfer Canaan to their territory and use them as the main players. And we will not let this happen and will definitely take a series of measures to counter it. There is no need for these.
Hiding from you."
Bei Gaoyang tends to very similar cultures and races, both emotionally and in terms of identity. Besides, reopening Canaan is unacceptable.
——It’s really baffling. Did I provoke you?
"What do you mean? What's the solution?"
"There is a preliminary consideration... The Chinese Academy of Sciences will come forward to admit that it has made a huge breakthrough in related technologies of the Metaverse. It is too advanced to be displayed, and then set up a company to operate the Canaan game. The company belongs to you and you can authorize it.
We help with the operation, or we can manage it ourselves, and everything is done according to the rules..."
"Is this enough?"
"This company is a shield. With it, there is room for maneuver, which helps reduce doubts and is also helpful for the promotion and operation of Canaan."
"Uh... let me think about it."
"OK."
Bei Gaoyang closed the chat window and disconnected from the earth's Internet.
He pondered.
You should not be lying to yourself.
Of course, there must be some exaggeration.
But the "worst case scenario" should be possible, when my identity as a so-called "alien" is exposed and someone has exclusive access to "alien black technology".
It's still a benefit after all.
Without benefits, why should they resist such huge pressure for themselves?
This benefit lies with this so-called "company".
This "company" sounds like it belongs to you, but what do you want it for, money, power, reputation or status?
My own interests are in Canaan and in the magic net.
Then it's not difficult to choose.
If they want it, just give it to them. Anyway, they don’t need it and they don’t care.
But there is no need to agree in a hurry. Just whet their appetites, which will save them from thinking that you are easy to talk to and they will be able to push further in the future.
Earth at the same time.
The hall was silent, and under a huge display screen were filled with elites from various industries.
Among them, the people in the psychological assessment, behavioral prediction and planning groups were the most nervous. They were staring at the chat window with no reply, their mouths were dry and their backs were sweating profusely.
After repeated discussions, analysis, contact, and evaluation, this is the first step to "break the ice" and is of extremely great significance.
Naturally, there are extremely heavy responsibilities and pressures.
One hour, two hours, three hours...
An old professor couldn't bear the pressure and groaned in pain while covering his chest.
There was finally a sound in the hall, and there was a "Buzz!" and everyone started talking.
"Failed, failed!?"
"I just told you to be careful, alas!"
"Don't talk nonsense. Do you expect him to reply immediately? Don't care, it will be nonsense!"
"Yes, it hasn't failed yet, and the other party has not refused!"
"But I didn't agree!"
"Then wait!"
"When!?"
"It's only been a few hours, you damn old man, and you're still saying there's no chaos?"
"Okay, okay, everyone, let's go and have a rest. Someone is watching here."
Now that he decided to let it go for a while, Bei Gaoyang put the matter behind him.
[Magic Network] is growing, and the number of people online at the same time has reached 230. The progress is rapid, but so far no player has successfully changed careers.
But he is not ready to lower the difficulty. The boss in Novice Village is just a whetstone. If jade is not polished, it cannot be used. How can a knife be sharp if it is not sharpened?
“I must pass this time”
"According to the rehearsal in reality"
"Everyone, cheer up and don't make any more mistakes."
"First kill, first kill"
More than twenty employees of Deep Blue Game Studio walked onto the battlefield with neat steps. Everyone was determined to get the first kill this time. With the red medicine, everyone was a hundred times more confident. Wang Chaoyang invited a "master"
", commanded in the team channel.
It went smoothly at the beginning, the BOSS was restrained by the group, the range damage was avoided, no one died, and the remote output was a little bit of blood grinding...
"There is a door"
"Hold on"
Victory was in sight and everyone was overjoyed, but unexpectedly it was too early to be happy.
BOSS began to act erroneously...
The well-rehearsed steps and formations suddenly fell into disarray.
