The virtual empire starts from the game

Chapter 306 Bottled media? Dangerous chemicals! Seize!
“There are so many hidden things!”

This is Qihuahua’s final “disclosure”.

At about the same time, beta test players also began to appear on social networks.

They have a lot to say.

Powerful ancient dragons, wild beasts, magnificent natural landscapes, rich ecological diversity, mysterious white frost, interactive battles, energetic girls, and wild and strong men...

So much content, so many surprises.

It really makes them want to share!

But unfortunately...

Can’t say anything!
The strong desire to talk, but the inability to hold it in, finally turns into all kinds of flattery.

Without talking about the specific content of the game, they praised DreamWorks and the development team so much that they couldn't stop.

As for the game bugs.

I don't know if it's because I'm enjoying the game right now, but no one has submitted a request yet.

The problem that Qihuahua discovered before - the problem of residual touch during the loading phase - has also been discovered by several players.

But no one submitted this question.

Some people even started taking advantage of this mechanism:
Grab the hand of the adventurer lady or the receptionist lady, and then...teleport!
The game then enters the loading stage, and all the surrounding images disappear together, but the NPC held in the player's hand is still there.

As a result, a group of players who let themselves go could no longer control their evil little hands!

——If this mechanism is not used, the NPC will refuse the player's touch.

If the player ignores the NPC's advice and tries to take over again and again, the NPC will fight back.

In less than one day, more than 200 players were kicked away by Miss Ju.

The "sensory retention" when cutting pictures is different.

At this time, there are actually no NPCs, only the somatosensory feedback data left by the development team to take care of the player experience.

The purpose is just to make players not feel disconnected from the "world" when reading the bar.

This kind of remnant, of course, cannot preserve the NPC's behavioral logic and judgment.

In essence, the player is not encountering the NPC, but rather the shadow of the NPC, which is similar to touching a figurine - at most the proportions and feel are better.

This problem is easy to fix. Just adjust the logic and delete [NPC] from [Item].

This thing doesn't even require an apology video.

Any developer can do it in 15 minutes.

——The premise is that someone brings it up.

When the development team looks at the characters they developed, they all think about how the dialogue intelligence is tuned, whether there are any conflicts in the behavioral logic, whether there are any bugs in the background story, and so on.

Who would have thought that players would be able to do such a cool thing?
So this problem remained and was not fixed until the game was officially released...
-
While the beta testers were addicted to the game and other players were having a hard time, another thing was happening.

The cargo plane carrying [Bottled Medium] landed in the United States.

Selling holographic equipment overseas is a rather troublesome matter. It is impossible to wait a week as Xu Meng said before sending the media over.

Always leave some advance time for the staff.

But unfortunately: this batch of equipment is destined not to be put on the shelves on time.

The moment the plane landed in the United States, it came into the sight of some interested people.

As soon as three vans loaded with bottled media drove into the Los Angeles branch of DreamBuilder, five cars of FBI agents, fully armed, walked into the company with search warrants that had just been signed in the vehicles.

The interval between the two was less than a minute.

"I'm an agent with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and this is the Federal Chemical Safety and Hazards Board (CSB)."

"We have received reliable information that a batch of highly dangerous chemicals has been delivered to your company."

"If it is not handled properly and an accidental leak occurs, it may cause serious safety hazards to citizens and even cause a major public safety accident."

"Now, take us to the warehouse."

"This is a search warrant. Please cooperate with us."

Branch employees are not fools either.

They knew exactly what had just been delivered to them - it was their work focus for the next few months, their performance, their bonuses, and the hope of financial freedom!

But they can't afford to mess with the FBI.

Especially when the other party is fully prepared and has all the necessary procedures and documents.

Even if you want to fight back, you can only wait and find a lawyer to argue afterwards.

Going against the FBI now would only bring trouble to yourself.

So just 15 minutes later, before this batch of "dangerous chemicals" could be unloaded from the truck, they were "legally seized" by law enforcement officers who suddenly appeared and transported out of the Dream Building branch in Los Angeles.

As for whether it was really transported to CSB for safety assessment, and whether it would be returned to Dream Building as they said...

Only God knows.

……

The branch staff reported to the headquarters immediately.

Chen Junyi frowned. This situation did not surprise him, as he had warned Xu Meng of this possibility.

But Xu Meng did it anyway.

Chen Junyi didn't think that Xu Meng was unwilling to listen to advice and insisted on doing things her own way.

——He knew very well that he could not look at Xu Meng the same way as ordinary people.

The people Xu Meng comes into contact with are at a much higher level than him, and what he sees and predicts must be more and more accurate than him.

If he is aware of the risks but still chooses to do it, it only means that he has his own plan.

Just execute it.

Just report it if you really encounter any problem.

And now is the moment when “real problems arise”.

"Boss, the bottled medium was just delivered to the Los Angeles branch when it was taken away by the federal government. The FBI and the Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board came to our door together, using the excuse that [the bottled medium is a hazardous chemical]."

"Okay, I understand." Xu Meng replied calmly.

Xu Meng's calm reaction made Chen Junyi subconsciously breathe a sigh of relief - it seemed that the problem was not serious.

“Will the technology be cracked?”

"Of course not." Xu Meng replied easily, "Let's talk later. I'll go and inform them that the second plane doesn't need to take off."

"The second plane?" Chen Junyi was stunned.

"Yes, the second plane." Xu Meng affirmed.

"Isn't the production capacity of bottled media very limited?" Chen Junyi was puzzled. "After deducting the domestic demand, can it still fill two cargo planes?"

"No." Xu Meng shook his head, "There's only enough for one, and now this one doesn't need to go abroad."

Chen Junyi was stunned.

Then slowly come back to the taste——

"So, there was only one batch of bottled media, and the plane that was supposed to deliver this batch of media didn't take off?"

"So what is being shipped to the United States now?"

"Hmm..." Xu Meng thought about the wording, "Chemicals?"

Chen Junyi was speechless for a moment.

Xu Meng added: "But there is no danger. This is a failed product made when the materials laboratory was developing the medium."

“Although we haven’t analyzed the chemical properties in detail, it’s not toxic or radioactive, it’s just regular waste.”

Chen Junyi was speechless.

"Oh yeah, it's not completely harmless." Xu Meng thought of something, "I added some concentrated capsaicin and a little bit of ethyl mercaptan."

“It might smell a little spicy.”

“It also smells a bit like garlic.”

"Uh..." Chen Junyi was even more speechless.

But Xu Meng hadn't finished speaking yet, he added uncertainly: "Well...it might also be very spicy. After all, I haven't smelled it either."

"Okay, okay, then do you want to notify the employees in the Los Angeles branch?" Chen Junyi tried to get the topic back on track.

"No need." Xu Meng shook his head, "Let them issue a notice."

"What announcement?" Chen Junyi asked.

Originally this was just a test.

If all goes well, a second plane will deliver the actual bottled medium.

Waste products will be destroyed on site and genuine products will be sold normally.

Nothing will happen.

Even if the other party bought some and tried to crack it, Xu Meng would not say anything.

But the other party showed no moral principles at all and directly detained the entire batch.

That's another situation!

Xu Meng is not the kind of person who would just take a beating without resisting!

"I'd like to inform the players and netizens in the United States that due to the inexplicable investigation by the FBI and CSB, the bottled media that was supposed to be put on sale has been seized. The release date of the holographic display device has been postponed indefinitely."

"Until the FBI and CSB investigations are completed, I will still be able to clear my name."

"I understand." Chen Junyi nodded decisively.

But before he finished the task and hung up the phone, he couldn't help but remind Xu Meng:
"Well, Boss, if you have nothing to do in the future, you'd better not go to the United States..."

“It’s best not to go to Europe.”

"When this is over, they're probably going to hate you to death."

"It doesn't matter." Xu Meng didn't care. "I don't need their favor. I just need their players and market."
