Star Sky Technology headquarters entrance.
A black car was parked downstairs in a low-key manner.
Lu Zhou stood next to the car door and spoke.
"I'll go up and sit for a bit. Do you want to find a place to kill time, or do you want to go up with me?"
"I'll wait for you here."
Wang Peng couldn't wait to take out a cigarette from his pocket. Lu Zhou smiled and shook his head. He said, "Don't smoke too much, it's not good for your health." He then turned around and walked toward the main entrance of the company building.
He went straight to the front desk.
The receptionist, who had just finished her call, put down the phone and revealed her trademark smile.
"Hello, do you have an appointment — Academician Lu?"
Lu Zhou smiled and spoke.
"Can you call CEO Chen for me? I'll see if she's free. "
The receptionist immediately spoke with a smile.
"You don't need an appointment. CEO Chen specifically told me that if it's you, you can just go up. She's free at any time. "
Lu Zhou shook his head.
"I'll call her. I'm just here to look around, not to disturb your work. If she's in a meeting, I can wait."
…
After the phone call, the rush hour was almost over. Lu Zhou took the elevator upstairs and looked at the Jinling high-tech zone through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Ever since the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study and Star Sky Technology moved here, a large number of high-tech companies and factories moved into the park. They surrounded the Star Sky Technology building like stars surrounding the moon.
Now, the annual output value of this park had exceeded the 100 billion yuan mark, and it had become one of the important economic pillars of Jin Ling City and even Jiangsu Province.
Lu Zhou looked out the window and couldn't help but smile like a father looking at his son.
Even though it was a bit exaggerated to take all of the credit, at least half of the credit should be taken, right?
Lu Zhou went up to the 30th floor of the company building and went straight to the CEO's office. He knocked on the door and walked in.
Chen Yushan noticed Lu Zhou appearing at the door of the office. She put down the pen in her hand and rolled her eyes at him helplessly.
"Why are you treating me like an outsider? The entire company belongs to you. Why did you call me?"
"Isn't it because I don't want to disturb your work?" Lu Zhou smiled, walked to the sofa and sat down.
"I've already disturbed you! I just thought of a brilliant idea, but it was interrupted by your phone call! "
"Shall I wait here for you to remember?"
Chen Yushan pursed her lips and teased.
"I can't remember unless you treat me to a meal."
Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Alright, let's do it at noon then."
Originally, she just said it casually and was even prepared to be brushed off. Chen Yushan didn't expect that Lu Zhou would actually agree.
She looked at him in surprise and asked curiously, "… Really? I just said it casually. Do you really have time? Are you so free recently? Ah, of course, if you want to treat me, I definitely won't refuse. Also, I already remembered that you just promised, don't go back on your word! "
"I just solved a world-class problem … Even though I didn't publish it." Lu Zhou looked at the clock on the wall and said with a smile, "But I don't have any other plans for the whole day."
Hearing this, Chen Yushan was slightly taken aback. Then, she said mockingly.
"It seems like you're ready for the next round of retreat. The next time I see you, will it be a year later?"
Lu Zhou smiled embarrassedly and didn't answer this question.
He didn't know if he would go into retreat or not.
It would depend on what kind of problem he encountered.
Chen Yushan didn't care that Lu Zhou didn't answer her question. She took out a notebook from the side and opened it. She then picked up the ballpoint pen on the table again.
"I can see that you have something important to talk to me about. Just say it, the sooner you talk, the sooner the problem can be solved."
Lu Zhou: "Do you have any plans?"
With a smile, Chen Yushan skillfully tucked her long hair behind her ear with a pen cap and said casually.
"No, but don't you have the whole day? You can watch a movie with me, right? "
Lu Zhou: "I'm fine with it, but is your work okay?"
Chen Yushan: "It's fine! You came at the right time, the last thing I have to do is listen to what you want to talk to me about. I still have one day off this month, so let's do it today. "
"Then … Okay then."
Lu Zhou looked at Chen Yushan and couldn't think of a reason to refuse, so he nodded.
He looked at the smile on Chen Yushan's face and suddenly felt like Chen Yushan, who always gave people a sense of reliability, had a charming side.
Of course, now wasn't the time to be distracted by this kind of trivial problem.
Lu Zhou coughed and put on a serious look.
"How long will it take for the Phantom system to go online?"
Chen Yushan spun the pen in her hand and went into work mode. She spoke in a serious tone.
"The Phantom system can go online at any time, but the connection device will be released to the market. This is mainly up to our partners. According to what Huawei told us, their first-generation virtual reality helmet using neural demodulator technology went into production at the end of the year. They should be able to release more than a million units by the beginning of next month. Right now, they're still working on the product price and sales strategy. "
Lu Zhou immediately asked, "What about America?"
Chen Yushan: "They're pretty much the same, around 800,000 units. They're targeting the low-end market … Is there a problem?"
In other words, it would be next month at the earliest. If it was slow, it might be delayed for a while.
I guess I have to push them.
Lu Zhou spoke.
"The Master God plan is almost complete. According to the laboratory's evaluation of the Reincarnation Team's physiological and psychological conditions, as long as they are used safely for eight hours, the Phantom system's influence on the brain and psychological health is quite limited. Even after eight hours, the effects won't be much higher than when using other electronic devices.
"All in all, as long as we do a good job with the content classification, the experiments have proven that this technology is absolutely safe for our society."
Honestly speaking, Lu Zhou suddenly regretted using the "Master God Project" and "Rebirth Team" names.
He ignored the smile on Chen Yushan's face and coughed. He maintained a serious expression on his face.
"In short, in order to collect more data and improve the artificial intelligence system developed by the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study, I hope our Phantom system can go online as soon as possible. Also, that game … The Calan Empire instance, I plan on opening it to the public."
Chen Yushan: "There's no problem with the Phantom system going online as soon as possible. I'll ask our partners, and it should be done by next month. As for the game … Even though it's easy for us to get a license … Didn't you say that we're only doing cloud computing services and patent management? We don't have to do specific operations for the game, right? "
"Plans always change, we're only running this game …"
Lu Zhou gestured with his index finger and said in a serious tone, "This is mainly for research, it doesn't matter if we make money or not. I don't have high requirements, I just want 100,000 users to participate."
Chen Yushan wrote down what Lu Zhou said and spun the pen in her hand.
"Permanently free?"
Lu Zhou thought for a bit and said, "Let's make the internal testing free for now, then we'll see … If the loss is too high, we'll charge some fees."
If they wanted to dig into the Calan Empire's memory, charging fees for props was basically impossible. Interfering with the game parameters through abnormal means would make the entire calculation meaningless.
Therefore, if they wanted to make a profit, charging fees for time was a good choice.
In fact, if Star Sky Technology wanted to run their own game, it would be difficult for them to make a loss. After all, the cloud computing services that supported the virtual reality network were their own. If they used some of the computing resources from the quantum computer to maintain the game, they wouldn't have to spend much money.
Chen Yushan didn't oppose Lu Zhou's decision. She was just a little curious as to why he suddenly changed his mind.
"When did you become interested in games?"
Lu Zhou stubbornly said, "I said, this is for experiments, it's not a game."
If it's not a game, then what is it?
Was it a real person or event?
"Yes, yes, yes, I know, you're doing experiments."
Chen Yushan smiled. Seeing how Lu Zhou didn't want to talk about it, she didn't want to continue this topic.
"Is there anything else?"
Lu Zhou: "That's it."
Chen Yushan closed the notebook in her hand and stood up from her office chair.
"Then the rest of the time belongs to me."
Lu Zhou also stood up from the sofa.
"What movie? You decide. "
"Don't act like this is a mission." Chen Yushan rolled her eyes and thought for a second. Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she said, "I changed my mind."
Lu Zhou: "…?"
"Take me to the Calan Empire." Looking at Lu Zhou's surprised face, Chen Yushan said with a smile, "Speaking of which, I haven't experienced that dungeon yet."
"I'm suddenly a little curious, what is the world that you're so obsessed with?"
