Rebirth 08: Rise from copycat phones

Chapter 493 If there is a miracle, this is it!
Xu Shenxue was on the stage giving a detailed introduction to the core of the Universal Virtual Machine, which is its host.

Others also had mixed reactions.

The technical managers of some companies that are also engaged in the research and development of VR omnidirectional treadmills were all stunned when they saw this large host, especially when they heard Xu Shenxue say that this host actually deployed four APO5000 graphics cards and four ZY38 chips.

Why does Zhiyun Group’s VR omnidirectional treadmill require such huge computing power?

A VR device plus an omnidirectional treadmill does not require such a large amount of computing power.

Many manufacturers' VR devices use traditional mobile phone SOC chips, which is sufficient. Only companies like Zhiyun Group will specially pair them with an additional graphics card, but this graphics card is just a low-power GPU in a laptop.

The omnidirectional treadmill does not require much computing power, a regular CPU is sufficient.

However, Zhiyun Group's Wanxiang virtual machine is equipped with four APO5000 graphics cards and four ZY chips at once, and its comprehensive computing power has exceeded the GT2 computing power server sold by Zhiyun Computing.

And the most important thing is that these computing chips are almost all top-level chips in the field of artificial intelligence.

This means that the universal virtual machine in Zhiyun Group uses artificial intelligence technology!
When they thought about this, they became even more curious. With such a big effort by Zhiyun Group, what would the final effect of the omnidirectional virtual machine be?
They were not wrong. The underlying technology of Zhiyun Group's Yun VW universal virtual machine is artificial intelligence technology. Of course, this artificial intelligence technology is actually different from the generative AI on the market, but belongs to an artificial intelligence in the field of industrial manufacturing.

In fact, it is more accurate to describe it using a big data model.

The term artificial intelligence can be easily misunderstood.

Zhiyun Group's universal virtual machine uses big data models to maintain the motion system so that it can cooperate with various activities of users.

How to make the omnidirectional treadmill perfectly integrated with the user so that the user does not feel strange when performing various activities, or even falls or other situations, this is the core technical difficulty of Yun VW.

In order to solve this problem, Zhiyun Group's virtual equipment project team directly used big data model technology, collected massive amounts of human motion data from the data factory, and finally trained a set of motion big data models.

The function of this sports big data model is actually very simple. It collects the user's various sports posture data through sensors, and then judges the user's next action based on the user's previous actions, and then mobilizes the omnidirectional treadmill to perform corresponding exercises!

Before the user lifts his foot, a part of his foot, such as the forefoot, has just exerted force, and the system has received the force data through the sensor data. At the same time, when the human body performs a certain action, other parts of the body will also show certain characteristics. The various sensors in the somatosensory suit, the peripheral laser radar and high-definition cameras will capture these movements and postures.

After being processed, the above data will be input into the big data model system, and the system will predict the user's next action based on this data.

As the user continues to move, the system will continuously refresh the prediction based on the latest data, and finally make a decision to mobilize the omnidirectional treadmill to cooperate with the movement in advance.

The biggest challenge here is not data collection... After all, as long as there are enough sensors, there is no need to worry about not being able to collect this data.

The problem is how to process this massive amount of data, and process it in real time... The user's movements are continuous, and the pace is very fast when running, which does not give the system much reaction time.

How to do?
What else can we do, besides optimizing the algorithm, is to stack the computing power!

Directly use data processing chips such as ZY38 and server GPU graphics cards such as APO5000!

Its overall idea is actually quite similar to the intelligent robots, some drones, and even AI fighter jets under Zhiyun Group.

All decisions are made based on data.

The difficulty is of the same nature: massive amounts of data must be processed in real time!

Relatively speaking, the data processing volume of intelligent robots is actually not as large as that of omnidirectional virtual machines... After all, intelligent robots only need to collect external data and then move on their own.

However, the omnidirectional virtual machine needs to collect the user's motion data and then adjust the environment for adaptation... and human movements are actually very delicate. In addition, humans are not robots. Their movements are actually very variable and they may change their minds midway.

When someone lifts their foot, how do you know if they are about to start walking, or stop halfway, or if they are just trying to step on an ant to death?

This requires continuous collection of user action data, continuous prediction and decision-making!

This also means that extremely huge instantaneous data processing capabilities are required.

So with this set of omnidirectional virtual machines, you might think that Zhiyun Group is selling a virtual world, but in fact, it is not. What they are selling is big data model technology and computing power chips!
Big data models and computing chips are the core technologies, and they also have extremely high barriers that other manufacturers cannot copy or imitate.

Similarly, Xu Shenxue gave a detailed introduction to the APO5000 chip and the ZY38 chip on the stage, and also introduced the core soul of this universal virtual machine: the VW2.5 intelligent system.

That is the carrier of the sports big data model!
However, technical personnel in the industry are very concerned about the above-mentioned things, but ordinary people don’t pay much attention to them... There are too many technical details that they don’t understand, and they have no interest in understanding them.

What they are most concerned about is what kind of performance this universal virtual machine can achieve?

Is it possible to truly achieve a highly immersive virtual world experience?

This is the most important thing!
Xu Shenxue gradually introduced the omnidirectional treadmill, the main unit, as well as the sensing gloves, sensing shoe covers, and the body sensing suit on the stage.

He said to the audience present and watching the live broadcast: "Now, let's take a look at the actual experience of our Yun VW!"

“Of course, due to the characteristics of virtual technology, we cannot fully display what users see and experience for everyone to see. We can only use simple pictures to show what users see!”

As he finished speaking, the huge screen behind him began to change, and then stopped at a white cloud LOGO image.

There are two small screens next to it, both of which also show the front image of the Baiyun LOGO.

"Now, this large curved screen behind me is connected to the host, and can later present the first-person perspective. In other words, the user can see us, and we can see it here too!"

“But I still want to remind you that what users see are 360° simulated images, which are the same as the scenes people see in reality, while we can only simply watch through flat images!”

"The experience we get from the images we see is less than one ten-thousandth of what we get from them. This video demonstration is just to show you a rough idea of ​​the technology, so that you know what it is like!"

“As for personal experience, we have prepared 20 prototypes for everyone to experience in turn after the press conference!”

At this time, the staff had already started the operation and turned on the universal virtual machine for demonstration. At the same time, an employee who was going to conduct the demonstration came onto the stage.

Xu Shenxue said: "Now, let our testers demonstrate it to everyone!"

The employee who was doing the demonstration was already an experienced tester in the virtual project team, but he still looked a little nervous.

He first put on two separate pieces of physical suits. The suit was actually quite simple. It looked like a tight-fitting top and pants, but it was only connected by a data cable.

At this time, Xu Shenxue continued: "We have equipped Yun VW with exclusive sensing gloves, sensing shoe covers and somatosensory suits, and provide multiple sizes, and have a certain degree of flexibility, so it can cover most people!"

"In addition, if users do not need to perform highly complex movements when playing games or experiencing other content, then it is okay not to wear somatosensory clothing, and even shoe covers and gloves are not necessary. Our omnidirectional virtual machine has a powerful external sensor array, including six ultra-high-precision laser radars, twelve ultra-high-definition cameras, and a large number of pressure sensors on the omnidirectional treadmill."

"Just relying on these external sensors, our VW2.5 system can also establish complete and high-precision motion data and make various predictive decisions."

"Of course, if you play games, I still recommend wearing these somatosensory devices, at least with gloves and shoe covers, so that the system can recognize your subtle movements more accurately!"

"We also provide an additional pressure feedback glove that allows users to feel a certain amount of force feedback as the virtual content changes, such as grip force feedback!"

When Xu Shenxue introduced, the tester had already put on the body sensing suit, gloves and shoe covers. Then he walked to the middle of the universal pedal and leaned on the backrest on the two poles hanging from the upper beam.

Then fasten the backrest straps!
Xu Shenxue also introduced: "The auxiliary motion system currently worn by the testers can provide users with certain force feedback and certain auxiliary motions, such as assistance for long-term jumping and flying."

What Xu Shenxue didn't say is that this auxiliary motion system is actually a safety system. In order to prevent the user from performing various actions, but the omnidirectional treadmill did not keep up, which led to the user falling or other situations, this auxiliary motion system will immediately lift the user up after detecting any unexpected situation... directly into the air to prevent the user from potential injury!
This is an insurance for its own VW2.5 system, which is also an insurance for the sports big data model... How to say it, no matter how powerful the algorithm or computing power is, there is no guarantee that the omnidirectional treadmill can always adapt to all the user's movements.

Apart from other things, what if a component of the system suddenly breaks down? For example, a drive motor in a universal treadmill burns out, and then the backup motor also burns out and becomes inoperable?
This will cause the movement direction of the universal treadmill to not match the movement direction of the user!
Once the matching fails, the user's movements may not be smooth at best, or even fall down. For example, if a person is jogging on a treadmill at a speed of 5 kilometers per hour, and suddenly the conveyor belt of the treadmill suddenly increases to 15 kilometers per hour, the person will fall down.

The auxiliary motion system that is hung above and directly binds the user in the mode of a backpack safety belt can directly lift the user up and prevent him from falling out in the event of such an emergency!

However, this is a safety design margin and is a backup of the backup.

During the actual testing, testers conducted tens of thousands of motion system tests, and the VW2.5 system has never had any failures.

But it’s better to be safe than sorry!
Therefore, necessary safety margins must be prepared.

After everything was ready, the tester finally picked up a helmet connected to a data cable and put it on. This helmet looks similar to ordinary VR glasses. This is for the purpose of weight reduction. At the same time, there are straps similar to earmuffs and headphones on the top of the glasses to support the weight of the glasses. These are all to prevent users from feeling heavy or restrained when wearing them for a long time.

So the way to wear this thing is not like glasses, but like a helmet.

After the tester was ready, everyone present looked at him and the big screen.

At this time, the picture on the big screen changed. The Baiyun LOGO slowly disappeared, and then a picture of a beach and sea appeared!

This was the scene that Xu Shenxue saw when he conducted the test himself.

This is also the homepage of Yun VW!
The reason for making this kind of realistic picture is purely to give users a sense of shock at the first time!

At this time, the picture on the big screen began to change continuously, changing along with the tester's first-person perspective.

In this first-person perspective, you can see that the user first looks down at his body, then looks at his hands, and then looks at his feet.

This hand also performs many variations of movements, including flipping, grasping, and other actions.

On the other side of the screen, the tester's movements were captured synchronously by the on-site camera... the tester lowered his head, stretched out his hands and feet, and performed a series of movements with his gloved hands!
The tester did this, of course, to present the shock of its sports system to the audience as soon as possible!
Then, the tester squatted down, looked at the ground, and stretched out his hand to make a scooping gesture!
On the big screen, in the first-person perspective, the tester was seen squatting down, looking at the beach, then reaching out and scooping up a handful of sand on the beach!
Immediately afterwards, everyone saw the scene that shocked Xu Shenxue at the time!
The sand was really scooped up, and some of it was slipping through the gaps between my fingers!

Ordinary people may not think this scene is a big deal, but people with a little technical knowledge can't help but gasp.

What is this ghost?

Zhiyun Group has made the physical simulation in the virtual world so realistic?
This is sand... How many grains of sand can you grab with your hands? Thousands? Tens of thousands? And the system actually simulates the movement of such a huge amount of sand?

This is not the point. The point is how much sand is there on this beach?

That’s an innumerable number. Do we have to simulate all this sand?
God knows how much computing power is required here!
At that time, Xu Shenxue was fooled by this trick. The people at the scene could only see the first-person perspective, so they were naturally fooled as well.

This sand scene is not a complete simulation, it is only a partial simulation. Other places are still all textures, but the quality of the textures is very high and people cannot see it.

Afterwards, the tester tested the walking animation!

And this walking animation is the time to truly experience the core technology of this set of virtual equipment!
In the first-person perspective and the third-party perspective on the big screen, the characters are walking towards the beach!

On the other side of the live footage, the tester was seen walking slowly on an omnidirectional treadmill with a diameter of only three square meters. His entire movement was very natural, and it didn't look like he was exercising on a treadmill at all!

Even though he walked more than ten steps, his whole body was always in the center of the omnidirectional treadmill.

If you only look at the scene, you will actually have a very strange feeling: this person seems to move, but also seems not to move...

Afterwards, the tester tested the sea water image.

It allowed people to once again witness Zhiyun Group’s top-level capabilities in physical property simulation and image processing...it was like real sea water.

Even the water droplets and waves are clearly visible!
Afterwards, the testers conducted more unrestrained tests with various movements…first walking slowly, then turning, then jogging, and then running.

Then he performed various common movements such as jumping, rolling, and backwards.

However, no matter how the tester moved, he was always in the middle of the omnidirectional treadmill.

Only the on-site camera captured this omnidirectional treadmill, which performed very high-frequency and complex movements as the tester moved.

This makes people worry that the drive motor under the treadmill may not be able to withstand such constant and intense work and may go on strike!

Of course, this is unnecessary worry for outsiders.

In the entire set of universal virtual equipment, pure hardware parts such as motors are the ones with the lowest technical content. Zhiyun Group does not even need to specially develop these things itself. The technical indicators can be directly customized for domestic professional manufacturers.

Besides, Gulf Technology, a subsidiary of Fairy Mountain Holdings under Xu Shenxue, can also produce photolithography machines... The photolithography machines they make are capable of high-frequency motion in nanometer units.

The pure hardware of this omnidirectional treadmill is not a problem.

The real technical challenge is how to match the movement posture between the user and the treadmill...to enable the user to perform various complex movements on the omnidirectional treadmill without falling off!
The first phase of testing after the machine was turned on was to demonstrate to the audience Zhiyun Group’s powerful image processing capabilities, simulation of physical properties, and most importantly, the high degree of matching of movement postures between the user and the omnidirectional treadmill!

Everything looks so real and so natural!
When the testers were conducting the first phase of testing, many audience members opened their mouths wide with various expressions of shock.

A senior Google executive who was invited to the event looked at the images on the big screen and then at the testers doing various exercises on one side. As a technical person, he was more shocked than an ordinary person.

"How did they do that?"

“How do they achieve such natural movement?”

Meanwhile, Facebook executives were also frowning: "How did they achieve these simulated physics? Simulating all the sand and water?"

But he quickly rejected his idea: "This is impossible, this is absolutely impossible. Even if all the computing power on earth is used, it is absolutely impossible to simulate this beach and sea water. They must have used some technology to reduce the amount of simulation calculations!"

The netizens who watched the live broadcast on the Internet did not have so many thoughts. After seeing the live scene, they were all shocked. "Is this scene real?"

"It must be fake. If this picture is real, then wouldn't all those AAA games I played before be the same as pixel games?"

"This action is so natural, as if it is really walking on the beach. Look at the on-site test footage, the tester is in the center of the universal pedal from beginning to end!"

“Isn’t this the virtual device in Ready Player One?”

"I can't play the virtual games in online novels, but this virtual game, which is the same as the one in Ready Player One, looks pretty good!"

Someone even commented: "Hurry up and announce the price. As long as it's not more than 100,000, I'll place an order immediately!"

However, this comment was quickly refuted by someone: "One hundred thousand? I can hear your calculations from thousands of miles away. You want to resell the graphics cards!"

"Didn't you see that this set of stuff includes four APO5000 graphics cards?"

"The APO4600 graphics card is now priced at 5000 yuan each, and it has even more powerful performance. Although the price of the -nanometer APO graphics card has not yet been announced, it will definitely be more expensive, perhaps more than yuan!"

"These four graphics cards are worth at least 800,000!"

Someone else commented: "It's not just the APO5000 graphics card, but also the ZY38 chip. That's also an unconventional chip. Its previous generation ZY34 chip is used in Zhiyun robots. Someone said that this chip costs tens of thousands of dollars each!"

Someone else said, "Don't forget, this system also has four X5 graphics cards. The previous generation X4 graphics card is still selling for 5 yuan, and this X graphics card won't be available for less than or yuan!"

At this time, someone asked: "With so many expensive chips, won't the price of this Yun VW be sky-high?"

Someone immediately responded, "Let's make a simple estimate. The cost of the various chips alone is more than one million. The other equipment doesn't look cheap either. Add to that the R&D costs, marketing, administrative costs, and profit. I wouldn't be surprised if this thing sold for four or five million!"

"Four or five million, is that so exaggerated?"

"This damn Xu Shenxue, why does he make such expensive things every day? It's okay to sell a mobile phone for more than 10,000 yuan, but he made a virtual device and sold it for several million. He is so greedy..."

While various comments appeared rapidly on the Internet, the demonstration at the press conference was still going on!
After the testers completed the first phase of basic testing, Xu Shenxue continued on the stage: "Next, let's test some other content!"

Testers began testing other projects, including using common software apps, including social apps, short video apps and even shopping apps.

These apps were developed by major Internet companies in recent times and adapted for some of their own products. Since they were rushed, the core things have basically remained unchanged, and only simple modifications have been made to the adaptation system.

When conducting a demonstration, the screen size of various software can be changed and adjusted, just like playing with a platform computer in the real world.

And the operation is done with fingers... tap and slide your fingers on the screen, and various changes will appear!

These have nothing to do with these apps. This is the system's built-in virtual gesture operating system...the core lies in the pair of gloves.

After sensing and identifying the user's actions, it will be fed back to the system for corresponding operations.

It is a bit like a computer mouse, except that the cursor of this mouse is directly displayed on the screen as a finger.

The experience operation of various conventional software is mainly to reflect the support of virtual devices for ordinary content... It can't be said that after the virtual device is released, there are only a few lonely games!

Other software must be usable too!
After all, Zhiyun Group’s goal is not to simply create a virtual device, but to create a virtual world!
In this virtual world, there must be sufficient content to support it.

And these contents need to be provided by many Internet manufacturers.

Now it is just a simple system adaptation application. In the future, major Internet manufacturers will need to use the various developer kits provided by Zhiyun Group, including the Zhiyun Simulation Engine for in-depth development, so that they can complete the virtualization of these commonly used software in the future to better adapt to the system.

Instead of what it is now, it can only be presented with simulated images!
Ordinary netizens have no interest in these routine content demonstrations. After all, they look very normal... just like watching people in movies and TV shows using computers and mobile phones.

Many netizens are actually looking forward to the virtual game demonstration!
As for virtual devices, the biggest and most core function is virtual games!

It’s not about building so-called virtual social platforms and the like, these are all incidental... It’s more convenient to use various common software on your mobile phone. There’s no need to go to the virtual world to play various APPs. That’s like taking off your pants to fart, it’s a waste of time!

The reason for adding support for these common apps is to expand the diversity of the ecosystem and allow people to use various app content when using virtual devices.

Virtual games are the core application of virtual devices today... Of course, simulation training in some special fields also counts.

Netizens did not have to wait long, and soon the testers carried out the third and most important phase of testing, which was testing the virtual game!

At this time, Xu Shenxue said: "Now, the tester begins to demonstrate the world's first virtual game, a large-scale shooting game "Doomsday Battle" developed by Yihai Technology."

“The story is set in a world that has suffered a doomsday disaster. Players play the role of a search and rescue worker, exploring the ruins of the apocalypse, saving survivors, and searching for supplies!”

"Our tester has entered the game, please take a look at the game screen."

At this moment, people saw an even more shocking scene on the big screen than what was just shown on the homepage!
The home page screen after booting up the computer, which is similar to the beach and sea scene on the computer desktop, is a simulated reality scene and looks just like the real thing.

However, the game graphics we see now are obviously deviated from reality, full of future technology and wasteland style!
After the tester started the game, people saw a city full of ruins on the big screen. As the first-time picture kept changing, people saw many shocking scenes that were even more shocking than those in science fiction movies!

As the battle unfolds, you can also see from a third-party perspective that the characters are constantly performing various movements, shooting and fighting during the movements.

At the same time, on the pedal of the universal virtual machine on site, testers can be seen performing various complex and necessary movements, including walking, running, emergency stops, turning, etc.

However, this tester who was performing all kinds of complex movements was firmly on the pedal of the universal virtual machine!
The whole scene seems quite discordant...

The heads of a group of high-tech manufacturers were more and more shocked as they watched this kind of game scenes.

Although they only saw the projected images, they could still feel a sense of reality through the first-person perspective, as if they were really in this world.

The presentation of this virtual world is much more shocking than the simple virtual picture on the homepage just now.

How did the engineers from Zhiyun Group achieve this?
The industry insiders present were all shocked, but couldn't understand.

Many netizens who watched the live broadcast were also shocked... Just looking at this picture, even if it is not a virtual game, it is still a top 3A masterpiece!
Not to mention that this is actually a virtual game!
Many people have already imagined what it would feel like if they could play it.

Some people commented: I have dreamed of playing virtual games for many years, but I didn’t expect that it would actually come true in my lifetime...

“Although it’s just visual and auditory, plus some motion simulation, it’s far beyond my imagination. To be honest, if I wasn’t so short of money, I would have placed an order!”

"Zhiyun products will never let you down!"

"Zhiyun's products have no disadvantages except being expensive!"

The testers played this doomsday shooting virtual game for more than 20 minutes, which not only satisfied the audience but also made them look forward to it.

Next, the tester tested Yihai Technology’s second virtual game... This virtual game is actually still a semi-finished product, but in order to catch up with the press conference, Yihai Technology also made some cuts, intercepted some of the completed content, and finally produced a first version.

This cartoon-style role-playing virtual game looks relatively normal in terms of graphics, but people soon discovered one of its features: you can actually fly in this game!
The character can control himself to step onto something like a magic carpet, and then control the magic carpet to fly... then various first-person flying scenes will appear on the screen.

Just looking at the flat picture, it actually feels just so-so, but many people fantasize about how great it would feel if they were flying in a virtual game!
People can’t fly, but I can fly in virtual games!

But in the real world, the tester is actually standing on the pedal of the universal virtual machine... standing still!

This is the change made by Yihai Technology for the character movement of the omnidirectional virtual device. The user needs to walk around to complete it... You can't really expect the user to walk or run all the time. The user doesn't have that much physical strength.

This requires giving users another way of mobility... It is not a good idea to arrange various vehicles or the like, because this is linked to reality. The user is on the pedal of the universal treadmill, but there is no stool for him to sit on.

You also can't fly directly into the air. In this way, although the character is flying, the user still feels like he is standing on the ground... This creates a very inconsistent feeling.

So, they designed a magic carpet prop to carry the characters flying!

In this way, it is the same for the user to stand on the pedal or on the magic carpet, and the flight of the magic carpet is just a change of the picture!
Therefore, this has been achieved. Users can 'fly' without moving, and the 'flying' is very reasonable. Users will not feel any strange flying scene!

This flying scene made a group of netizens look forward to it.

I really want to experience it too!

With the end of the tester's third phase of demonstration, the demonstration that lasted about an hour also came to an end.

Although there is still a lot of content that has not been demonstrated, the time for the press conference is limited and we cannot continue to demonstrate like this.

At this time, Xu Shenxue spoke again: "I think everyone has also felt the shock of our Yun VW system from the flat screen!"

“But I still want to say that the shock we saw and felt from the projection screen is far less than one percent of the actual experience!”

“Only by experiencing it yourself can you truly feel the huge shock brought by the virtual world!”

"We will open 20 experience machines later. Interested guests can sign up and take turns to experience it!"

"At the same time, I heard from the staff that many netizens are asking about the launch time and price of this Yun VW virtual machine!"

"Without further delay, I will announce it now!"

"There are three models of Yun VW that we released today. You can see the differences between the models on the big screen behind me!"

"The dual APO4600 card version is priced at ."

"The four APO4600 card version is priced at million."

"Finally, here is the flagship store we demonstrated today, the four APO5000 card version, priced at million!"

“All three models come with free somatosensory suits, gloves, and shoe covers, as well as free installation service!”

After hearing Xu Shenxue announce the selling price, although many people had guessed that this thing would not be cheap by looking at the chip before, they were still shocked by the price.

"It's over, Zhiyun has released another product I can't afford!"

"Ten thousand people signed a petition in blood, begging Zhiyun to produce a virtual machine under 100,000 yuan. I will buy it even if I sell everything I have!"

However, some people were pleasantly surprised: "I thought there was only the one at the press conference that cost three or four million, but I didn't expect Zhiyun to be so conscientious and make a version worth eight hundred thousand!"

"It goes without saying that the flagship version is not priced high, but this entry-level version of 800,000 yuan is still worth a try!"

Some netizens who have some money in their pockets but are not considered wealthy are already thinking about whether it is worth spending 800,000!

Some second-generation and first-generation rich people who are extremely excited about virtual games and have plenty of money have already set their sights on the flagship version priced at 3.8 million yuan.

It’s just over three million, I have enough money, so I’ll buy it!

This is a virtual game. It’s great to be able to play this kind of high-tech thing. Money doesn’t matter!

Of course, the number of people who consider buying is still a very small proportion in the crowd. More than 99 percent of people will immediately give up any idea of ​​buying when they see the price.

Even at the entry-level price of 800,000, you can buy a three-bedroom apartment in most cities... They simply can't afford it!

At this time, Xu Shenxue continued:
"Today at 12 o'clock, we will open the pre-order channel for Yun VW on the official website. Domestic users can place orders. After the order is successfully placed, users can go to the Zhiyun virtual flagship store in their area to pay the balance and pick up the goods three days later. We will provide free door-to-door installation services!"

"At the same time, in the next month, we will gradually open pre-order channels in other countries!"

"At the same time, we have also opened large virtual world experience halls in Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Beijing and Shanghai, which have a large number of virtual equipment to provide virtual world services for everyone. You can also make an appointment to experience it!"

This virtual world experience center is a virtual gaming internet cafe opened by Zhiyun Group itself… It is not for the purpose of making money by opening a virtual internet cafe, but to create a business model, make a few samples first, and then attract investors to purchase virtual equipment to enter this industry.

In the early stage, especially before the cost of virtual equipment drops significantly, the sales volume of virtual equipment does not depend on how many rich second generations buy it, but on how many investors enter the virtual Internet cafe industry!
The cheapest virtual equipment costs 800,000 yuan, so it is destined to not achieve much sales among individual consumers. It can only rely on large-scale purchases by virtual Internet cafes and simulation training institutions.

After Xu Shenxue finished his various introductions, the on-site press conference came to an end. But it was just an end, as a large number of audiences on site were waiting to experience the virtual equipment!
After the first group of audience members had a simple ten-minute experience, when they took off their helmets, a large group of reporters began to rush over and ask questions.

“How does the experience feel? Is it really the same as the virtual world?”

Among the first group of experiencers, a middle-aged man who looked like a corporate executive was silent for a few seconds and then said to the reporter: "It's hard to describe this feeling in words, but I feel like I have a second life!"

“It’s like a whole new world, a virtual world!”

Another young man said on the spot: "If there is a miracle, this is it. What I saw and experienced in it is a hundred times more exaggerated than what I saw on the big screen. No, it is ten thousand times more!"

“You must experience it yourself. The feeling of being in a virtual world cannot be experienced by watching a video!”

(End of this chapter)
