Time flew by and in the blink of an eye, it was already September.
Unlike the climate of the Mainland, Namibia, which was located in the African Continent, had a subtropical climate. Due to its higher terrain, the temperature throughout the year did not vary much, ranging from eighteen to twenty-eight degrees.
During these three months, the entire world was peaceful, moving silently like the parts of a clock.
However, amidst this tranquility, something seemed to be brewing.
On this day, in a small, little-known media company located in Shangdu, Mainland China, Little Wu arrived at the office building where his company was located at 7: 59 am sharp. After quickly clocking in, he sat down in his seat with a joyful expression.
"Phew, thank goodness I made it in time. I was almost late for the first day..."
While enjoying the air-conditioned air in the company, Little Wu still pulled out a tissue to wipe the sweat off his body. He then turned on the computer on his desk.
Today was the first of September, another new month. Compared to the enthusiastic newcomers, Little Wu, who had been working here for two years, no longer had the passion and impulsiveness of a fresh graduate. Now, he was more like a middle-aged man. He even had some wolfberries soaked in his vacuum flask.
However, for a small media company like this, fresh graduates were like leeks, one after another. There was a constant stream of people leaving and a constant stream of new people joining.
For a small media company like this, they could only make use of these fresh graduates. The truly skilled people would not bother coming here.
"Sigh, another uneventful day."
After sitting there for about five minutes, Little Wu's sweat finally stopped. He rubbed his fat belly, then opened the browser, followed the favorites, and began to check the netizen comments on the video he posted yesterday.
Yesterday, which was the end of August, Little Wu posted twenty-eight videos in one day for the sake of sales.
This was Little Wu's daily job. Simply put, Little Wu's job was to use his company account to post a large number of technology-related videos on major websites and platforms across the continent, such as Baidu, Bilibili, UC, Tencent, and so on, in order to earn clicks.
The reason why it was technology-related was that he was in charge of the technology group in the company. Although it was not as popular as the entertainment gossip group next door, Little Wu was happy to have some peace and quiet.
On the internet, Xiao Wu was affectionately called "Editor" by netizens, and his company's account was affectionately called "Marketing Account" by netizens.
At this moment, as Little Wu opened up his accounts on various platforms and checked the bullet screen comments and comments under yesterday's video, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up slightly.
At a glance, there were more than 5,000 comments on each video yesterday. On average, each video had more than 160 comments, and most of them were from the netizens.
Needless to say, the netizens nowadays were too passionate …
"Editor Sima!"
"What the f * ck are you looking at? After talking for so long, what did you say? You didn't even say anything! "
"Ask the netizens what they think? Of course, I used my phone to watch it! "
"It's that Sima BGM again …"
"This is a marketing account. Everyone, click it and leave!"
Little Wu could not help but sigh with emotion as he read the sincere greetings from the netizens. 'Do you think you can stop me from posting videos at a crazy speed just by scolding me a few times?'
The netizens were still too young …
Little did he know that as long as he clicked in and read it, he would have already made a profit. If he left a few more comments, he would have made a killing.
Looking at the hundreds of thousands of views, Little Wu could not help but smile.
The reason why his articles were unanimously criticized by the netizens was that he was best at using an exaggerated title and a suspenseful ending. Anyone who saw it would involuntarily click on it.
For example, if a pig from the Wang family in the neighboring village died of illness, Little Wu could come up with a very suspenseful title: [The village's old sow died tragically in the middle of the night. When the owner woke up the next morning, he found a shocking scene …]
For Little Wu, the content of the video was not important. Any news in the technology circle could be exaggerated and turned into a video. What was important was that the content could attract a lot of traffic. Whether it was scolding or praising it, it did not matter.
As long as there was traffic, that was the most important thing.
After being a marketing account for two years, Little Wu had already reached the level of being able to face thousands of people's criticisms with a straight face. He even regarded it as a kind of pleasure. The first thing he did every day after he went to work was to properly "appreciate" the scolding and attacks from the netizens on various platforms.
After appreciating the comments from the netizens, Little Wu closed the more than twenty videos posted yesterday with satisfaction and began to ponder on today's video.
First, he went to the technology forums of various countries to look for useful new information. It did not take long before he found a few good pieces of news. Most of these pieces of news were groundless, but they were stated in a very serious manner. Little Wu thought that these pieces of news were good, but the next second, it was his own news.
For Little Wu, the authenticity of these pieces of news was not important. Even if they were fake news, they were fake news that was valuable and worth posting.
After collecting news from the technology forums, Little Wu set his sights on the forums and official websites of various technology companies, hoping to find some eye-catching news from them.
First, Little Wu opened Apple's official website.
"Hmm... The annual Apple Fall Event is coming up again. According to the order, this year should be the iPhone.
According to the official website, besides the iPhone 16, there are many other hardware products.
Apart from the 16, there are also many other new hardware products. Hmm, this news can make a video … "
Little Wu only skimmed through it casually, then copied the news into his own folder. Then, he opened the official website of Blacklight Biotechnology.
"Na, nani?"
As soon as he opened the official website of Blacklight Biotechnology, a message immediately popped up.
[New product release]!
When he saw this message, Little Wu could not help but feel excited.
As a company registered in the Mainland, Blacklight Biotechnology could be said to be one of their own. Although their main business was overseas, they still recognized themselves as a company in the Mainland. This was unlike Creep, which was clearly supported by the Mainland, but then turned around and claimed to be an international company in the Mainland.
Therefore, Little Wu still had a certain degree of affection for Blacklight Biotechnology. In addition, every time Blacklight Biotechnology released a new product, it would trigger a technological revolution. Just the word "new product release" alone was worth Little Wu posting three videos!
With this in mind, Little Wu's listlessness at work was swept away. He quickly clicked on the notification and began to check the interface of Blacklight Biotechnology's official website.
On the homepage of Blacklight Biotechnology's official website, there were a total of five major sections, namely the biopharmaceutical section, medical project section, infectious disease section, electronic technology section, and tissue engineering section. The five major sections were represented by the five colors of green, white, gray, black, and yellow respectively, making it easy to read at a glance.
At this time, on the interface that represented the electronic technology section, a large red exclamation mark appeared.
"What, the new product is an electronic technology product?"
Little Wu was immediately surprised. He still had the software Little X Translation Assistant installed on his computer. As someone who had used Blacklight Biotechnology products before, he could be said to have the most say. It was because of this software that he could freely browse the posts on foreign forums. Otherwise, with his half-baked English level, he would not be able to do this job at all.
Now, after a few years, did Blacklight Biotechnology finally remember its business in the electronic field?
Little Wu immediately clicked on it and immediately saw the largest bulletin board at the top of the electronic technology section. On it was an egg-shaped massage chair.
"What is this?"
Little Wu clicked on it again, only to see that this egg-shaped massage chair turned out to be a kind of VR device?
"What, how can it be VR..."
Little Wu was a little speechless. It was not that VR was bad, but since more than a decade ago, a variety of VR devices had emerged all over the world. The initial novelty of VR devices had also become numb to it now. After all, VR had always been the same. The only thing that gave VR devices a slight boost was the game called Half-life: Alex that was released in 2020.
As a work that was given a perfect score by IGN, this game amazed countless people, but the only flaw was that it was still a standalone game after all. The VR device also significantly limited the performance of the game, so it had to be said that it was a pity.
Nowadays, the VR market had become a market that any random company would be willing to take a slice of. The good products and substandard products were dazzling, but there had been no revolutionary technological progress. Currently, it was still in the exploration and concept demonstration stage.
Now, even Blacklight Biotechnology was going to enter this mixed market?
Little Wu shook his head, his previous high spirits were suddenly dampened. "Even if it's VR, what can it do? Can it be as realistic as in online games?"
However, as soon as Little Wu opened a webpage, an official promotional video suddenly appeared. Little Wu clicked on it out of boredom. Suddenly, the full image of the egg-shaped chair appeared on the screen.
The seat appeared in a close-up. Accompanied by a piece of background music, without any explanation, the size of the seat was displayed.
1.5 meters in diameter and 1.66 meters in height. Then, a line of text flashed at the bottom: V.1 Haptic Shock Chair.
Obviously, this was the name and size of this VR device.
After that, the background image of the egg-shaped chair in the video flashed, changing from a white silhouette to a residential house. After that, a young man walked straight into the camera and sat on the chair as if he was relaxing at home.
"Made of genuine leather, built-in liquid cooling circulation, adjustable seat temperature."
As the second line of text appeared at the bottom of the video, the video quickly zoomed in and directly penetrated the skin of the chair, revealing the internal structure of the chair.
As expected, there were dozens of pipes in the internal structure with liquid constantly circulating in them, controlling the temperature and ventilation of the chair.
"It can be adjusted to four gears. In addition to leisure, you can also perform massage work, giving you the effect of a professional masseur."
As the second line of text explained, the video continued to zoom in and showed the structure of a mechanical structure.
At this point, the video zoomed out again, revealing the full image of the egg-shaped chair. However, at this time, the young man in the video had already pressed the massage button. After that, he put on an extremely comfortable expression and leaned back in the chair.
"This is the first time I've seen this configuration... Blacklight Biotechnology, you're really something..."
Little Wu muttered to himself. He twisted the lid of the cup and continued to watch.
"Revolutionary technological innovation, holographic imaging."
As the third line of text appeared, the young man in the video seemed to have given up on the massage. He turned to press another button, which was like the power button of a computer. As soon as he pressed it, the inside of the gap in the egg-shaped chair, which was in front of the young man, suddenly flashed and an illusory screen appeared!
"Pfft!"
Little Wu spat out a mouthful of water. He quickly spread a tissue on the keyboard to absorb the water while his eyes drifted toward the screen.
"Sure enough, I'm not hallucinating?"
Little Wu murmured in disbelief. In the video, an illusory screen appeared in front of the young man. This screen was translucent and he could just barely make out the appearance of the young man behind it. However, this was not the main point. The main point was, where did the screen on the chair in the video come from?
Could it be, as the text below said, that this was a mature holographic projection technology?
At this time, there was no telling how many people had their glasses broken at this moment. It was not that holographic technology did not exist, but almost all of them were pseudo-holographic. It could be said that there was not a single holographic technology that could truly be called perfect vision.
