At 12 o 'clock in the evening, Los Santos in Southern California was shrouded in the veil of night. At this time, most people in Los Santos were already asleep, but the headquarters of Future Group in Southern Los Santos was still brightly lit.
In the circular venue on the first floor, the audience was packed. The media workers already set up their cameras and waited for Jiang Chen's appearance. The staff on the stage were busy setting up the venue and connecting all kinds of high-end equipment to the power supply.
Danny briefly explained a few key points to his assistant, then took out a small notebook and repeatedly confirmed the key points to be asked. There were a lot of reporters in the Los Santos Times, and everyone tried their best to obtain the interview qualification. It was not easy for him to seize this opportunity. Judging from people's obsession with the Phantom helmet, the attention of this report would not be low.
"Do you think he will come?" The reporter sitting next to him seemed to be confident about the interview as he stuffed the tablet back into his briefcase and asked Danny in a casual tone.
Danny noticed that the logo on the microphone belonged to the California Daily, and the nameplate on his chest read [Charles Dun].
"Probably. Everyone here is one of the top media in the UA. Even Microsoft doesn't have the courage to stand up to all the media," Danny joked.
Charles smiled and lowered his voice.
"I have interesting news here."
"Oh?" Danny sat up straight and leaned in with interest.
There was still some time before the conference began. It would undoubtedly be beneficial for the interview if he could get some information from his peers. Whether the information was true or false, it could be used as a reference.
"Yesterday at noon, I asked my acquaintances to investigate the passenger lists of several airports in Los Santos, but I didn't see his name at all."
"Maybe he took a private plane," Danny joked, but in his mind, he despised Charles.
[What kind of news is this? If he really wanted to keep a low profile, would you find him?]
Just then, the lights in the venue suddenly turned off. Everyone stopped whispering to each other and stared motionlessly at the front of the venue.
It's here!
Danny stuffed the notebook into his pocket, took a deep breath, and adjusted the tie in front of his chest. But when he saw his colleague from the Daily Californian newspaper, he almost choked. Although Charles was sitting, his feet were in a running posture with one in front and one behind.
How f * cking shameless.
Danny cursed in his heart, but he held the microphone in his hand and was ready to swarm them.
Future Technology didn't let the reporters wait for long. The UA general manager behind the scenes looked at his watch, then signaled the staff to turn on the equipment.
A beam of light fell on the stage. Following the light, a young Chinese man in a suit walked to the front of the stage from behind the curtain.
As expected, the audience burst into enthusiastic applause. Although many UA media still had reservations about Future Technology born in Hua, the technological prowess it displayed did win the respect of everyone present. Therefore, for Jiang Chen's appearance, the reporters were not stingy with their applause.
The screen behind him lit up, and English words appeared on it. The reporters present were no stranger to Future Technology's real-time translation technology.
"I'm very happy that everyone can attend our company's product launch. I'm also very sorry that the reporters in North America have to work late into the night, and the reporters in Western Europe have to wake up early."
When Jiang Chen said this, Danny, who sat in the front row, first smiled understandingly, but then he was stunned like the other reporters below the stage.
The amount of information in this opening statement seemed to be a bit too much.
Jiang Chen glanced at the reporters below the stage, smiled, spread his hands, and continued.
"That's right, this press conference will be held in 12 Future Group headquarters around the world at the same time."
Jiang Chen's words were like a bomb thrown into the originally silent venue. All the reporters' eyes widened as they looked at him in disbelief.
Holding a product conference in 12 headquarters around the world at the same time? What is he trying to do?!
Although it wasn't time for questions, a lot of reporters raised their hands. Including Danny from the Los Santos Daily, they needed an explanation from Future Technology.
As if he expected this situation, Jiang Chen was very calm. He scanned the reporters in the venue, and his eyes finally fell on Danny in the front row.
"Reporter 304, please speak."
Danny was surprised when Jiang Chen called him to speak. He quickly stood up and passed the microphone in his hand.
"Excuse me, your company said that the product conference will be held at the same time around the world. Does this mean that the other conferences will be attended by regional managers? Then why did you choose the UA region as the venue? "
Strictly speaking, these were two questions, but Danny forced them to be put together and asked.
When Jiang Chen heard Danny's question, he just smiled.
"From your words, I can hear the misunderstanding. Let me first clarify that even if the conference is held in 12 different locations around the world at the same time, I can still attend in person. "
Danny looked at Jiang Chen, dumbfounded. He didn't know what Jiang Chen meant. But since the question was over, he had to sit back down.
After explaining the question from the Los Santos Daily, Jiang Chen didn't ask another reporter to speak because he knew what they wanted to ask. And what they wanted to ask was exactly what he was going to explain next.
"I'm sure all the reporters here are familiar with this term. That's right, I'm talking about holographic projection. And standing here now is my holographic projection. It is precisely because of this that I have to emphasize the order of the questions. "
After listening to what Jiang Chen said, there was a burst of whispers in the audience. All the reporters looked at Jiang Chen in disbelief. Of course, these reporters knew about holographic projection. However, until Jiang Chen confessed, none of them realized it!
"But this … this is too realistic."
Charles, who was sitting next to Danny, murmured as he looked at Jiang Chen on the stage.
However, Danny's reaction was stronger than Charles'. He often went to Silicon Valley to interview, so he had some understanding of these cutting-edge technologies. Today's holographic projection technology was very mature, and it was not difficult to pass off the fake as the real thing.
But all the holographic images had to be preset. Using holographic projection technology in the field of instant communication to create a three-dimensional image of the scene, even Nasdaq's best at "blowing bubbles" wouldn't dare to make such an unrealistic claim.
But Future Technology quietly put this technology on the table?
[God, is this really just the launch of the Phantom Helmet?]
A crazy thought emerged in Danny's head. He looked at the notebook filled with questions in his hand and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Future Technology's unconventional actions completely disrupted his plan.
[Now, when it's time for the formal questions, what should I ask?]
Danny's worry was also the worry of all the reporters here. Looking at the expressions of the reporters below the stage, a smile appeared on Jiang Chen's face.
This was the effect he wanted.
This product launch was not about the MMORPG , but the Phantom Helmet! Virtual reality technology! Online games were only the tip of the iceberg in the field of virtual reality technology. To make the world's users inseparable from Future Technology's product, they must be shocked and crazy enough!
Therefore, Jiang Chen opened his mouth again.
"By the way, I'm in Xin right now and will be interviewed through the Phantom Helmet."
