When Zhou Jiangping came out of the gaming pod, the expert from before did another round of tests on him, and the results were still fine.
After seeing Zhou Jiangping try it out, the others were a lot more relaxed.
Everyone present was a respectable person, and with the Game Committee's leader present, they couldn't just rush forward like kids fighting for toys. They had to maintain their self-control. However, it was clear from everyone's eyes that they were looking forward to the new VR gaming pod.
Zhou Jiangping still hadn't calmed down from his excitement, "I really don't want to stay in the real world after experiencing the neural connection VR. The difference is too big!"
Zhang Zhongxiang laughed, "Is that necessary, Boss Zhou? How could the virtual world be more attractive than the real world?"
Zhou Jiangping said, "Chairman Zhang, you don't know how it feels. I wonder if you've ever tried long-distance running? When a person is running for a long distance, there will be a critical point. When you are about to reach the critical point, you will feel exhausted and breathless, and you will even feel like you will fall to the ground in the next second. However, once you break through the critical point, you will suddenly feel that your footsteps are light, as if inertia is pushing you forward, and you will feel that your whole body is glowing with energy from the inside out!
"It's really hard to get this feeling in the real world, as you'll have to go through a long period of suffering before you can do it. But in the neural connection VR world, you'll get this feeling every second! You'll feel like an athlete with endless energy. When your body is in peak condition, it doesn't matter if you're running for a long period of time or shooting with high precision!
"In the real world, you'll need to train hard day after day to get this feeling. Take some long-distance runners for example. They've been running for over ten years to get this level of fitness, and once they stop training, their body's condition will quickly deteriorate. You have to know how rare this feeling is in the real world, but in the virtual world, it's something anyone can get!
"Otherwise, why would I feel uncomfortable after saying it? I feel like my old arms and legs have aged by more than 20 years. How can I not feel uncomfortable?"
Chen Mo corrected him, "To be more precise, it's the VR technology that made you twenty years younger."
Zhang Zhongxiang smiled. "Now that you mention it, even I want to give it a try."
The people present either had some wealth or some power. After listening to Zhou Jiangping's words, they all understood the true value of the VR gaming pod.
That was "feeling". To these people, "feeling" was the most luxurious thing.
Just like Zhou Jiangping, he had a lot of wealth. He could buy most of the things he wanted, but he couldn't buy health.
He was very busy and did not have much time to exercise. It was even more impossible for him to reach the level of an athlete. Even if he kept exercising, he would continue to age and his physical condition would deteriorate. To him, this new VR gaming pod wasn't just a gaming console.
Its greater significance was that it could allow people like Zhou Jiangping to obtain "feelings" that they could never obtain in real life, and these people were willing to spend any amount of money in order to obtain these "feelings".
Zhang Zhongxiang pondered for a moment. "I'll go in and give it a try."
The people present didn't try to persuade him anymore because they also wanted to give it a try …
Zhang Zhongxiang sat in the gaming pod and Chen Mo personally guided him through the game.
Qiao Hua said to Chen Mo, "There's still some work to be done before the new gaming pod can be officially released and advertised, but it should be done soon. By the way, does the gaming pod have a name yet? "
"Name? It's been a while, "Chen Mo looked at the crowd," Matrix gaming pod, Matrix. "
…
…
Chen Mo didn't need Qiao Hua's reminder. After seeing everyone's experience, Chen Mo knew that this thing would be put into production and promoted quickly.
The current technology couldn't be 100% proven to be harmless, but so what?
After all, this was a new technology that could revolutionize the real world. If even the leaders and rich businessmen wanted to buy one for themselves, it could be imagined that even if there was some resistance, it would be resolved.
Moreover, the Matrix gaming pod represented a new industry. Its future profits and scale might even surpass tobacco, alcohol, personal computers, and mobile phones …
In the face of such huge profits, they wouldn't give up on a little unknown risk? That was impossible.
Even if they knew there was a little bit of risk, they would still forcefully promote it. There were many examples of this in real life.
Moreover, China was lagging behind in the VR gaming and VR equipment industry. If the new VR gaming pod was released to the world, it wouldn't be as simple as turning the tables, it would be a sufficient advantage. If they hesitated, and the foreign countries released this thing to the market first, wouldn't they be in a passive position?
After all, no one knew the progress of the foreign research companies, it was normal to think of them as being on the fast track.
…
Everyone else was racing against time, but Chen Mo was quite free. He even had the time to check on the development of Detroit: Mortal Breaker.
There was no one else who would be in such a state of "doing work while I'm free".
With the Matrix gaming pod as a sample, Detroit: Mortal Breaker could add more details to the game. As the first next-generation VR game, Detroit: Mortal Breaker might not be perfect, but it didn't matter. Its purpose was to test the waters, unveil a corner of next-generation VR, and continue to advance the understanding of VR in this era. That was enough.
The Matrix gaming pod project was also classified as top secret. Before it was officially announced, they had to prevent any leaks.
In addition, there were experts researching the usage of the Matrix gaming pod in military, medical, and other special areas. There was also some controversy regarding the promotion of the gaming pod overseas.
Some people even suggested that they should only sell it within China, and not outside of China. This would prevent other countries from copying it, and they wouldn't have any advantage.
This was obviously impossible, as no one would say no to money. Selling it overseas would increase their foreign exchange reserves and trade surplus. Only an idiot would hold onto it.
As for whether the Matrix gaming pod would be copied, the experts concluded that it would, but it didn't matter. The technology to make the gaming pod wasn't complicated, but the main technical content was the program to analyze the brain and neural signals. Without this program, the gaming pod wouldn't work.
