Chen Mo looked at the virtual screen on his bracelet. There was still a long way to go before he could unlock [Intermediate Artificial Intelligence]. It would take him at least half a year to collect all ten million player emotions.
Therefore, there was no need to think about this technological point for now. He might as well look at another technological point, which was the storage capacity expansion in [Hardware Technology].
This technological point could increase the storage capacity of all smart devices by ten times and the reading speed by ten times, at the cost of 300 lucky draw tickets.
Was this technological point significant? Of course it was. In terms of storage capacity, no one would complain about the storage capacity of their PC or mobile phone, not to mention that the reading speed was increased by ten times. The loading bar that used to take ten seconds could now be read in one second, and even the loading process could be hidden. This was a huge improvement to the gaming experience of the players.
Therefore, the quality-price ratio of this technological point was also very high, especially for the 'Oasis Plan'. In addition, this was also a very important technological point for the Matrix Glasses.
However, there were not enough lucky draw tickets at the moment, so he had to wait.
After the Oasis update in the Matrix Gaming Pod, many players were addicted to the mansion and could not extricate themselves. Many people suggested that more enjoyable content could be added to the mansion.
For example, 82 Lafite, Cuban cigars, food from all over the world, more girls, and so on.
Many people were extremely dissatisfied with Nuannuan's' epic enhancement '. How could it be okay to have a cute WWE girl in the house? They would be beaten up just by touching her thighs, how could they live like this!
Chen Mo chuckled, 'Do you think I don't know what you're thinking?'
The Matrix Gaming Pod was still considered a new thing, and playing around the edges was equivalent to playing with fire. It would be troublesome if they went overboard. Therefore, it was better to be more cautious and highlight the positive content of the next generation of VR to achieve better development.
However, food, wine, and other sensory pleasures could be considered as part of the development plan in the future. In reality, a bottle of 82 Lafite would cost at least a hundred thousand, but in the game, Salent was so kind as to give a ten percent discount and only sell it for a thousand.
Don't think it's too expensive. There are other kinds of alcohol. If you want to buy a bottle of green beer, it only costs 10 cents. All of it is converted according to the market price.
Luxury goods were luxury goods, and the price of the so-called luxury goods had to be able to filter out consumers. Not everyone could buy it casually. Otherwise, the 1982 Lafite and the green beer would be given away for free at the same price. Then, wouldn't the taste of the wine be lost?
Moreover, satisfying one's appetite in the virtual world was no different from satisfying one's appetite in the real world. In terms of the feeling, the players were already profiting. You couldn't possibly argue about the nutritional value of the food, could you? Who would drink a 1982 Lafite for its nutritional value?
Apart from cigarettes, alcohol, and gourmet food, other activities such as massages and sunbathing could also be considered. However, activities that were borderline activities, including those that were explicitly prohibited by the law, would definitely be avoided. The virtual world was not a lawless place. Once some tycoons experienced the feeling of being on cloud nine in the virtual world, it would be troublesome if they thought about the same thing in the real world.
Therefore, similar experiences in the virtual world were similar to those in the real world. There were only legal experiences, but the price was greatly reduced.
One could imagine that this would also become an important selling point of the Matrix game cabin. The players were one step closer to escaping from reality.
As for whether this thing would have an impact on related industries in the real world … the outcome was almost certain. Many people could enjoy expensive food in the virtual world, but the number of times they would have to spend a lot of money to eat in the real world would definitely decrease. However, in the short term, this impact should be negligible. After all, there weren't many Matrix game cabins sold yet, and most of the people who could afford them were rich.
As for how to collect these feelings, it was actually to let many people taste the food, and then use a special consciousness collection device to collect their feelings when they ate the food. Then, they would combine the feelings of many people to make adjustments and come up with an optimal plan. When other players ate the food in the virtual world, the Matrix game cabin would send this consciousness signal directly into the player's brain.
Because there was a certain difference in how people felt, some people had a strong appreciation for food, while others didn't. Therefore, when collecting information, people with strong sensory abilities would be specially selected. This way, many players with less developed taste buds would feel that the food they ate in the virtual world was tastier than in the real world.
The same applied to cigarettes, alcohol, and other sensory pleasures. When these contents were gradually enriched and perfected, it would be equivalent to building a very large business in the virtual world, making it extremely profitable.
…
Chen Mo was still thinking about the future plans when someone knocked on the door.
"Come in."
His assistant Lin Xiao pushed the door open and said to Chen Mo, "Manager, Global Technology has contacted us, saying they want to work with us to develop a new next-generation VR project."
Chen Mo was shocked, "Global Technology? The developer of Earth Online? "
Lin Xiao nodded, "Yes, they want to use the Matrix game cabin to release the new Earth Online. At the same time, they'll pay us thirty percent of the platform and distribution fees."
Chen Mo was amused, "Thirty percent? Are you trying to get rid of a beggar? "
Lin Xiao said, "Their reason is that Thunderbolt Gaming Platform only takes thirty percent when working with independent video game designers in China. Moreover, they believe that the popularity of Earth Online around the world would be a great promotion for the Matrix game cabin … "
Chen Mo leaned back in his chair, "The reason we only take thirty percent from domestic video game designers is to promote the development of domestic independent video games. That's a price we're willing to pay, I've been losing out on that. Don't Global Technology know how much better a game like Earth Online can be when it comes to the Matrix game cabin? They're treating us like fools, do they really think we're that easy to negotiate with? "
"Then … should we ask them to increase their share? Increase it to fifty percent? "asked Lin Xiao.
Chen Mo waved his hand, "No need, tell them we're not interested."
Lin Xiao nodded, "Alright. What if they continue to increase their share? "
Chen Mo was amused, "If they're willing to give us ninety percent of the net profit, then we'll consider it."
Lin Xiao also laughed, "Alright, manager, I understand."
Obviously, there was no way Global Technology would give them ninety percent of the net profit. Wasn't that a joke? Chen Mo's attitude was clear, he didn't want Earth Online to be released into the Matrix game cabin.
As Global Technology's most famous VR game, Earth Online had a long history, and was constantly being updated. Of course, after so many years, the game was a bit outdated, and Global Technology had many new ideas.
After the Matrix game cabin was released, many foreign video game companies panicked, as they couldn't make something like this.
Global Technology obviously knew how good the Matrix game cabin was for virtual reality games, which was why they wanted to work with Chen Mo to continue the glory of Earth Online in the next generation of VR games.
