Super Copy of Great Power Technology

In the virtual world, everything is made of data, including all kinds of food. Here, she can indulge in all sorts of snacks without worrying about gaining weight or losing her figure. Lamb skewers, pork jerky, beef jerky, donkey rolls, honey-glazed pastries—Wang Xiaofeng ate almost everything, satisfying her long-starved foodie soul. Wang Xiaofeng discovered that Ruida Technology's virtual technology was quite advanced; these delicacies were incredibly realistic, with color, aroma, taste, texture, and flavor almost identical to the real thing. Except for the lack of a feeling of fullness, they were practically indistinguishable from the real thing. Moreover, in the virtual space, she could eat some particularly rare, even extinct, delicacies. For example, the "dragon meat in the sky, donkey meat on the ground"—in the real world, the grouse is listed as a Class II protected animal, making it almost impossible to eat wild grouse. Farmed grouse have a poor taste and are expensive, unaffordable for ordinary people. In the virtual world, there are no restrictions. All kinds of wyvern meat and wyvern soup are available for sale, and the prices are not expensive. Wang Xiaofeng ate half a roasted wyvern and drank a bowl of wyvern soup in one go. He felt that the meat was delicate, fragrant, and incredibly delicious. It was truly a delicacy of the world.

Another discovery was that the virtual food sold at these stalls was exceptionally cheap, costing only about one-tenth of the real price. You could eat as much as you wanted in the virtual world without worrying about going bankrupt. Of course, if you weren't satisfied with the virtual food, you could order the same food from the stalls in the real world. After placing the order, a delivery driver from the partner platform would deliver it to your door in a very short time.

Wang Xiaofeng ate her fill on the virtual shopping street, attracting hundreds of people at the press conference and millions watching the entire event live. Some chubby young men, also foodies, were drooling as they watched.

"What a bustling street, so much delicious food! It makes me hungry."

"Is this the world of brain-computer interface? It's so amazing and so real. Just for all this delicious food, I want to buy one."

"Seriously, isn't the reporter worried about bursting her stomach eating like that?"

"This is a virtual world. Everything is just data. Food, drinks, and even the human body are just a string of data. As long as there is no setting to make you feel full, you won't feel stuffed no matter how much you eat."

“I just took a look and I saw snacks from almost all over the country, and they were all made on-site by the vendor NPCs. This means a massive amount of data collection and organization, as well as virtual modeling. The workload is enormous. The R&D staff at Ruida Group have really put in the effort.”

"I wonder how well these dishes have been recreated, and how close they are to the original? Judging from the reporter's squinting eyes and the look of enjoyment on her face, they probably won't be too bad."

"Doesn't this mean that with this brain-computer interface device, we can enjoy all kinds of delicious food from around the world without leaving home? Indeed, technology changes the world and changes lives. Once this brain-computer interface becomes widespread, it will completely change the current internet ecosystem and thus affect the learning and lives of most people."

"Please announce the price of the brain-computer interface soon! As a foodie, I can't wait!"

The discussion in the live stream was quite lively, while at the press conference, the holographic image had switched to the perspective of the second tester, Lin Xin. He had accessed another virtual application lab, a high-end electronics lab. Inside, there were all sorts of design computers, circuit board processing equipment, soldering equipment, testing equipment, and various electronic components such as resistors, capacitors, and integrated chips—everything you could need. If your skills were good enough, you could easily build a laptop or a mobile phone by hand.

Lin Xin graduated from a prestigious university with a degree in electronics, giving him a foundation in electronic product design and manufacturing. Since his university days, Lin Xin has had a great interest in drones, which he didn't give up after graduation. He has devoted a significant amount of money and spare time to the construction and flying of drones. What he's doing now is attempting to hand-build a racing drone in a virtual laboratory.

Lin Xin opened the EDA software and drew the control board, image transmission module, remote controller, and ESC circuit diagrams. To save time, he downloaded some circuit diagrams he had previously designed for reference. After completing the circuit schematic design, he clicked "Convert to Circuit Diagram" in the EDA software, followed by automatic routing. After successful simulation testing, he transferred the circuit diagram to the adjacent circuit board processing equipment. Just five minutes later, several finished circuit boards emerged from the output port. Lin Xin picked up the circuit boards, cut them, removed any useless edges, and then placed the finished products on the test bench. Later, he went to a touch screen on the side of the laboratory and, through voice and handwriting input, requested a large batch of materials needed to build the drone, including brushless motors, carbon fiber sheets, lithium-air batteries, pure copper wires, various electronic components, and so on.

When the holographic image switched over, Lin Xin was operating a CNC machine, machining a carbon fiber frame. The high-speed rotating tungsten carbide cutter moved across the carbon fiber sheet, hissing and sending dust flying. After machining was complete, the debris was blown away, revealing a neatly shaped machine frame. The entire machining process looked smooth and fluid; even those unfamiliar with CNC machining technology found it fascinating and somewhat stress-relieving.

After processing several more frame components in the same way, Lin Xin began soldering circuit boards, burning the program, and assembling the racing drone. The whole process was long and tedious, and everyone lost interest after watching for a while. Zhao Hongcai also noticed something was wrong and promptly explained:

"As you can see, almost all physical and chemical experiments can be completed in our virtual laboratory. The only area where we fall short is in the study of microscopic particles. After all, humanity's research into the fundamental particles of matter is still in its infancy, and our understanding is very limited, insufficient to construct complete microscopic particle models. However, given sufficient technical expertise, you can design and manufacture mobile phones, computers, cars, and even airplanes and rockets within the virtual laboratory, and verify their reliability and practicality. We also offer collaborative development models for enterprise or research institute users. A team of several, dozens, or even hundreds can collaborate within the virtual laboratory to develop a product. This can save you or your company significant product development costs, shorten R&D time, reduce costs, and increase efficiency—it's extremely practical." (End of Chapter)
