With a command, the originally dark screen suddenly lit up.
Countless light particles poured in front of her in a three-dimensional manner. Xia Yuhe subconsciously shrank back, but she soon realized that this was just a picture projected on the screen.
"I thought it was the kind that doesn't use a screen..." Xia Yuhe said with a little disappointment when he saw the interface on the screen.
But then she felt relieved. Thinking about the technology that magically connects the spirit to the virtual world, it is unlikely to be overcome so easily. It should be considered good to be able to achieve this level...
"This is just the startup interface, the excitement is yet to come." However, Zhu Tian's words raised her expectations again.
With a skeptical attitude, Xia Yuhe wanted to say something, but a series of dialog boxes suddenly appeared on the screen in front of his field of vision, and at the same time, clear standard system sounds sounded in his ears.
"Iris verification process started..."
"Confirm as new user."
"Registering..."
"Gene code has been logged in, please set a nickname."
Staring blankly at the words in the center of the screen, Xia Yuhe took a slow, deep breath.
"Yuhe."
"User registration completed. Welcome, Miss Yuhe. This ID will be bound to your iris information. In principle, you cannot cancel or re-register. Your privacy will be kept absolutely confidential in the virtual world. I wish you a happy virtual journey."
Looking at the startup icon in front of her, and trying to calm down her accelerating heartbeat, Xia Yuhe spoke.
"start up."
After receiving the user's instructions, the image on the screen began to gradually darken. Accompanied by the soothing startup sound, for a moment, Xia Yuhe felt a light itch on the back of her neck like ants crawling over it, and then her consciousness was separated from her body.
This feeling was like diving, and the five senses seemed to be covered with a thin veil, but soon the five senses became clearer than ever before.
"This is......"
Xia Yuhe stared at his hands blankly, then looked around.
She was so shocked that she forgot the language for a moment.
Yes, she didn't know how to express the shock in her heart at this moment.
There is nothing here in the milky white cube space, but it is more fulfilling than ever. The binary codes of 0 and 1 flash from the wall, adding a touch of science fiction shock to this room.
She stood in the center of the cube, staring blankly at the panel that gradually appeared in front of her.
Stretching out her hand, her fingertips lightly touched the translucent panel.
A hint of coldness.
A layer of ripples swayed from the point where her fingertips landed, rushing towards the walls of the cube.
The wall shattered, as if a window had been opened, and a lifelike picture appeared in front of her.
Endless rice fields, towering mountain peaks, giant sails cutting through the wind and waves, towering city walls...
And now, she is standing on a hill...
After a while, Xia Yuhe took off his helmet and sat up from the chair.
After thinking about it for a long time, she sighed with unfinished content and spoke.
"If I hadn't been able to call up the exit game menu at any time, I would have thought I had traveled through time."
"Experiencing virtual reality for the first time will indeed produce this feeling. After playing it more, you will not feel it anymore."
Yes." Zhu Tian smiled.
There must be a process of adapting to new things. Zhu Tian remembers that when he first laid down in the virtual reality training cabin, he was very nervous. But after using it more times, he didn't feel much at all.
Holding the helmet in his arms, Xia Yuhe stretched out his hand and gently touched the streamlined surface, whispering like he was dreaming.
"Although traditional VR equipment can also achieve immersive virtual reality, they are all based on the physical level. For example, using a helmet to block vision and hearing, and mounting sensing elements on the hand... But this kind of direct
This is the first time I have heard of a device that allows the body to enter deep sleep in reality and completely connect the mind with the virtual world. Images and sounds do not need to pass through the retina and eardrums, all senses only stay at the brain level, and the body is sleeping when playing games.
....It’s really science fiction.”
"Really? Then guess how many players there are in this game?" Zhu Tian said proudly.
Xia Yuhe shook his head: "I can't estimate how much, but one thing is certain. As long as this helmet is not ridiculously expensive, there will be no problem at all in breaking the Guinness World Record for the number of players and the number of people online at the same time."
"I think so too." Zhu Tian smiled.
After a pause, Xia Yuhe looked at Zhu Tian: "Do you think virtual reality can only be applied to games?"
After hearing Xia Yuhe's words, Zhu Tian asked with great interest.
"What's the meaning?"
"PCs, smartphones and tablets. These electronic products have simplified people's social activities. With just one chat software, two people thousands of miles apart can feel like they are standing face to face."
Putting the helmet aside, Xia Yuhe looked at him and said seriously: "With this virtual helmet, he can make two people thousands of miles apart ignore the distance and 'really' stand face to face. Putting aside the game,
This helmet itself is an epoch-making product."
Zhu Tian was stunned. He had never thought about this problem, and no one had ever mentioned it to him. After all, when faced with virtual reality technology, people in the wasteland were much calmer.
"You mean this thing can replace a smartphone?" Zhu Tian said with a smile: "That's unlikely. After all, mobile phones can be used anytime and anywhere. This thing can only be played at home. And, if I remember correctly
, VR equipment has been available two years ago.”
In fact, virtual reality technology is not a rare thing in the real world. The penetration rate in China may be very low, but if you look "outside the wall", this thing is not as sci-fi as imagined.
"It's different." Xia Yuhe shook his head: "This difference is like, flip phones cannot shake the status of PCs, but smartphones can."
After a pause, she looked into Zhu Tian's eyes and said seriously.
"The virtual helmet you took out is similar to the 'smartphone' in VR equipment. It is not realistic to replace a smartphone, but it is more than enough to pose a threat to its market position."
Although he was already mentally prepared to turn the next page of history, Zhu Tian couldn't help but feel a little excited when he heard Xia Yuhe say these words himself.
"This virtual helmet is like a key, taking people's sleep time to another dimension. With the same life span, a person's 'alive' time will be increased by eight hours. Not just games, we can also use virtual
Reality devices can be used to create online communities, shopping platforms, virtual real estate, and even things that have never been imagined..."
Taking a deep breath, Xia Yuhe's eyes flashed with excitement.
"Now, do you know why I'm so excited?"
Zhu Tian was secretly surprised when he heard Xia Yuhe's words.
When he got the virtual helmet, he just thought about using it to play games, but he didn't really think that far ahead. But when Xia Yuhe said this, he suddenly felt like he had an enlightenment.
Yes, not just games, social interaction, and even food, clothing, housing, and transportation, if it is based on the platform of a virtual helmet, everything is possible! This virtual reality is like an unexploited gold mine, and you can touch this gold at this moment.
The only one who mines is Daming Technology.
"We will create history." Zhu Tian said softly.
"That's right!" Xia Yuhe excitedly held Zhu Tian's hands.
"..."
Time paused here for five seconds.
Xia Yuhe slowly let go of his hand, put her fist under her lips and coughed, her eyes drifting to the side.
"Sorry, I just got excited..."
She pretended to be calm as if nothing had happened, but the blush on her cheeks betrayed her inner panic.
Zhu Tianze was a little dumbfounded and looked at her blankly.
Khan, is this really Xia Yuhe?
No, what we should consider now is not how we should react?
Just when the two of them were in embarrassment, there was a gentle knock on the door.
"There are visitors outside." Looking at the two of them with a smile, the housekeeper said, leaning on the door frame.
The rescue was too timely! Zhu Tian thanked the housekeeper in his heart.
"I'll go take a look at the door. You should study the virtual helmet first." Zhu Tian smiled at Xia Yuhe, turned around and slipped away from the gym.
Standing at the door of the villa yard is a middle-aged white woman in a blue suit. The smart business attire looks very formal. From the Zhu Tian logo on her briefcase, it can be seen that she is from the Dutch BMA construction company.
People. Currently, they are responsible for the infrastructure reconstruction and tourism resource development projects in Palau Islands.
As for the purpose of her trip, Zhu Tian could roughly guess that she was probably here to "collect debts."
It's embarrassing to say that according to the project contract, every time the construction party completes a phase of the project, the tenderer should pay the money for this phase of the project. However, since Zhu Tian is not here, naturally he cannot sign the payment bill, so this amount
It has been delayed until now.
After finally catching the news of Zhu Tian's return, BMA Construction Company naturally sent out salesmen immediately, hoping to solve the project payment problem as soon as possible. Although there was a guarantee from Daming Technology, they were not afraid that Zhu Tian would blackmail their money, but this amount
The constant delay in project payment is a big test for their capital chain.
Without keeping her waiting, Zhu Tian pressed the switch of the iron door and went out to greet her in person.
Seeing Zhu Tianhou, the lady nodded slightly and introduced herself politely.
"Hello, Mr. Zhu Tian. I am Hannah Cavell, the manager of the European headquarters of BMA Construction Company."
"Come in and talk." Zhu Tian smiled and made a gesture of invitation.
Hannah nodded and walked into the courtyard door of the villa.
As Zhu Tian walked towards the door of the villa, her eyes looked around from time to time. Lush subtropical vegetation was neatly blooming around the lawn, and the broad-leaved low trees were shaped like umbrella sheds. The entire villa was like a castle surrounded by trees.
.
It was a very beautiful villa, but she always felt that it felt slightly inconsistent.
"What else are you looking for?" Zhu Tian asked with a smile.
"Well..." Hannah pondered for a moment, then suddenly discovered the problem and asked, "Why is there no gardener in your villa?"
