The virtual empire starts from the game

Chapter 419: Record-breaking Number of Pre-Orders! (Seeking monthly tickets)
"???"

On the streets of the sprawling city, NPCs were still going about their business, but all the players were frozen in place, unable to believe their ears.

Even the players who were fighting dragons in the central square stopped fighting and asked others in disbelief:
"One second? Did I hear wrong?"

"You heard it right! It's just 1 second!"

"One fucking second. Jumping from a 1-story building should take at least five seconds, right? How did he do that?"

The onlookers looked at the huge billboard in the South District in surprise.

There are really outrageous numbers in the photo of Xu Meng and Xiao Meng:
[00 hours 00 minutes 01 seconds]
The players on the street were all stunned, and the audience in the live broadcast room who witnessed Xu Meng's outrageous operation had an even more explosive reaction:
"Ciri! Teleport?? Is it possible to do this???"

"Are you fucking kidding me??"

"I knew you wouldn't be able to pass the level honestly!"

"One second? It can't be shorter, right?"

"Okay, okay, don't think about the broadcast anymore."

"Wait, I'm going to find Ciri now!"

……

The live broadcast room was flooded with comments.

Xu Meng couldn’t see it with his naked eyes.

But Xiao Meng quickly jumped down from the top of the 150-meter-high matrix with a whoosh.

The pink hair was blown wildly by the wind, revealing the smooth little forehead.

When he was about to land, he ignored gravity and stopped beside Xu Meng in an instant.

Then it landed gently.

After landing, she casually took out a holographic display from the air and handed it to Xu Meng.

The above are the carefully selected comments from players.

Xu Meng glanced at the comments and said with a smile, "Speedrun! I didn't say it was a Wuxiedao speedrun!"

"But you know: once the evil path is discovered, there is a risk of being banned by the authorities."

As he said that, he looked at Xiao Meng, "Xiao Meng, can you help me?"

"Yeah!" Xiao Meng nodded happily, and the pink code stream appeared around her again.

After a few seconds, the code stream disappeared.

Xiao Meng took credit for it on the spot: "Done!"

Xu Meng rubbed his head and looked at the camera again: "It's very unfortunate."

"As you can see, this evil practice has been banned by the authorities."

Live broadcast room audience:? ? ?

"As for the speedrunning rankings, I'm a level designer, so my results certainly don't count."

As he finished speaking, his name and record on the record tablet in front of the matrix slowly faded away.

"So, there is still a chance, come on everyone!"

Xu Meng's series of explanations left everyone speechless.

——Xu Meng had no intention of coming here, but he came because everyone asked him to suffer.

After I got here, I first proved that I could pass the game using conventional methods, and then I did a "flash speed run" for fun.

In the end, not only did he fix the bug, but he also erased his own records.

Throughout the entire live broadcast, apart from providing a very difficult matrix clearance guide, it did not affect other things.

In the end, except for the players who wanted to use his "coordinate axis positioning method" to challenge the clearance record, the rest started to chat with him.

Most of the talk revolved around the Dream Machine and new games.

Some people remembered the "phased results" he mentioned when he first started broadcasting, and curiously asked whether he was referring to the "mass production of the dream machine."

Xu Meng shook her head and replied, "No."

“It’s hard to say what it will be, but if all goes well, it should be announced by the end of the month.”

Upon hearing this, the players felt both excited and disappointed.

Fortunately, Xu Meng quickly changed the subject:
"Although I can't tell you this, I can tell you another good news first!"

"It has been 22 days since the Dream Machine Experience Center opened for trial operation, and more than 5 players have come to experience it."

"Everything went very smoothly."

"So, we will start pre-sale of the Dream Machine on the 15th of this month, which is three days from now, and will officially launch it on the 3th of this month."

"If you want to buy something, you can pay attention to it in advance." "Of course, don't worry too much."

"With the full support of Yuanyang Group, our first batch of stock has reached an unprecedented 5000 million units, and all interested friends can buy them."

The quantity of this first batch of stock is more exaggerated than the best-selling mobile phone in the world!

But mobile phones have become a necessity to a certain extent, but game consoles are not.

Dream Machine stocked up 5000 million units in one go before the release, which shows how strong its confidence in the Dream Machine is!

The players in the live broadcast room immediately jumped for joy: "Finally, there is good news!"

……

Over the past 20 days, the Dream Machine Experience Hall has been packed every day!

Players with sufficient financial resources from all over the world are rushing here.

In order to maximize the testing, the experience center is open 24 hours a day without stopping for a moment.

Because users need to play the game in their sleep, the entire experience center is dimly lit, soundproofed, and everyone who comes in must tiptoe.

This creates a very magical phenomenon -

The street outside the door is crowded 24 hours a day, but the room behind the door is so quiet that you can hear a pin drop.

In order to minimize the impact of noise, Zhumeng even bought shops around the experience center.

After buying it, don't do anything else, just leave it empty for waiting players to rest, and don't block the road and make noise outside.

And this is the biggest trouble the experience center encountered during the trial operation.

None of the problems that Xu Meng was worried about, such as equipment failure, failure of the sleeping patch, unstable brain wave signals, and abnormal connection between dreams and games, occurred.

Now, he can finally relax and launch the dream machine into the market.

His good brother Zhang Yang is even more confident than him.

——Initially, he actually planned to stock up 3000 million units first, and then replenish them depending on the situation.

In his opinion, this is already super confidence!
After all, the Dream Machine is not a gaming console that costs a few thousand dollars.

Even if Xu Meng did not intend to spread the research and development costs into the selling price, and started large-scale mass production to reduce costs from the beginning, he could only reduce the price to 30,000 yuan.

But Zhang Yang urged him to prepare 5000 million units first, since the Dream Machine had no shelf life anyway.

Yuanyang Group took the initiative to help with warehousing and logistics issues, and Xu Meng agreed.

Amid the audience’s farewell comments, Xu Meng ended the live broadcast.

The holographic image returned to the expert conference room of the Affiliated Hospital of Huacheng Medical University.

That night, Pang Yun woke up safely.

Xu Meng and the expert team immediately got busy.

……

……

Three days passed by in a blink of an eye.

November 5, 15 a.m.

The product page of [Dream Machine] in the Dream Building Game Mall is online and pre-sale has officially started.

Players finally learned the price of the Dream Machine:

[29800]
Also comes with 60 sleeping patches.

During the current pre-sale stage, you can make a reservation by paying 800 yuan first, or you can make a reservation in full.

Installment payments are also accepted.

And no matter how many installments you make, DreamZhu will not charge a penny of interest.

Xu Meng had no idea how many players around the world were waiting for this moment.

But he could clearly see:

After the pre-sale started, the product page suddenly froze!
Many anxious players spent a long time clicking on the big red [Pre-sale] button, but the page did not respond or even lost the connection completely.

It was not until 10 seconds later that the network returned to normal.

At this time, the number of pre-orders for the Dream Machine has jumped from [0] to 1200 million!
Without any intermediate process, it directly exceeded 10 million!

And this is just the beginning.

After the network returned to normal, the number of players who made reservations continued to soar!
In 18 minutes, pre-orders exceeded 2000 million units.

30 minutes, 2500.

In 1 hour, it exceeded 3000 million!
Finally, before the gameplay trailer of "Sail in the Blue Sea" was released, a full 5000 million Dream Machines were booked out!
