After the meeting, Ye Qing returned to the Dragon Creek Beach factory.
According to the plan, the holographic glasses would be released the day after tomorrow.
Ye Qing was confident in the holographic glasses, but he was not confident in the full set of equipment.
The holographic glasses was just the beginning of the virtual reality world.
The holographic glasses, as a display carrier, needed to be used with a good performance mobile phone. The mobile phone processor would process the data.
An ordinary mobile phone had no problem processing the data, but it could not afford the image processing technology of the holographic glasses.
Therefore, the glasses were also integrated with a powerful image processing chip. For such a powerful pair of glasses, the price of 8,600 was not expensive.
But there was another problem, the mobile phone's ability to process data was limited. If one wanted to experience more complex game scenes or large-scale interactive scenes, they would need to be paired with a data terminal.
The data terminal was similar to a top-of-the-line desktop, and its price was 62,000.
A computer mainframe cost 62,000 yuan. If one only looked at its hardware performance, those computer enthusiasts would have a strong sense of satisfaction that it was worth more than it was worth.
But there was another problem …
With these things, it was necessary to pair a pair of gloves that could achieve virtual and reality interaction.
The basic version of the gloves was 6,000, the enhanced version was 18,000, and the perfect version was 42,000.
After these, there was a more luxurious set of gloves. It was a dreamy full-body light armor like the futuristic warriors. Wearing it, the user could use it to experience all the tactile sensations felt in the virtual world.
Was this the end of the paywall?
Naive!
This was just the beginning of the paywall.
Virtual reality was a new world beyond reality. In this world, users could experience any profession that originally only existed in their imagination.
A mage in charge of the elements of wind, fire, water, and earth.
A sniper with a 98K in hand and a full set of combat equipment.
An ancient warrior with a shield in his left hand and a long sword in his right, wearing gilded armor.
Or a racer sitting in an F1 car.
Or an ace pilot wearing a load-resistant suit, driving a J-20, experiencing supersonic flight.
Were you excited and looking forward to it?
Then hurry up and pay for these profession items.
To be clear, these profession items were not a mage's staff, a warrior's shield, or a soldier's weapon.
The Essence Spirit Gloves could use the power feedback technology to accurately simulate the user's touch when holding a staff, a weapon, a shield, a bow and arrow, or when holding the steering wheel in a racing car.
Users wouldn't be stupid enough to hold a 1.5-meter-long sniper rifle and jump around at home.
These class items were essential dream items for users who pursued the most perfect experience.
Do you feel that walking in place is too stupid and clumsy? Do you feel that the space at home is not big enough for you to sprint, run, roll, and jump?
You need a full-posture simulator. It can fix the user in mid-air 20 centimeters above the ground through the Primordial Spirit Set. This way, whether it is rolling, flying, swimming, or weightlessness, all the postures can be accurately simulated.
Do you feel like you're missing something other than your sense of touch?
For example, the temperature changes in virtual reality?
Otherwise, when casting the Snow Storm Spell or fighting with the enemy in the Himalayas, the wind and snow around him were like knives, but the temperature at home was more than 30 degrees, and he was sweating like rain while wearing the Primordial Soul Set. Wouldn't that spoil the fun?
The users thought to themselves, 'I've already spent hundreds of thousands, and you want me to experience this?
Hurry up and get a set of temperature simulation plug-ins. '
Then they could stand in the full-posture simulator wearing the Primordial Soul Set and enjoy the coolness brought by the temperature simulation plug-ins. Then, should they upgrade the sound simulation plug-ins?
Tencent, which was originally responsible for the development of games and virtual worlds, also suggested various appearance modifications and virtual reality equipment.
If it weren't for Ye Qing's righteous refusal, there would be no end to this road of pay-to-win.
Now, the factory specially divided a factory area for virtual reality equipment. The holographic glasses, the Primordial Soul Set, and the MDT were the three products that occupied the largest area. Now, all the main products were ready for mass production, and only a few upgraded plug-ins were still being finalized.
The day after tomorrow was the beginning of the pay-to-win road. Ye Qing looked at the full set of equipment in his office and couldn't help but feel guilty.
When the company first started, Ye Qing's entrepreneurial philosophy was to benefit the people.
What made Monster Industries gradually become like those capitalists?
It must be the cost of the products. The philosophy of benefiting the people has never changed.
Ye Qing used this reason to convince himself.
Tomorrow, he still had to convince a group of big names in the film industry. Thinking of this, Ye Qing called the head of Tencent games, Wang Yuting, and asked how the development of the virtual reality scene was going. Could they put together a promotional video?
Monster Industries was invincible in terms of hardware, but they were much weaker in terms of software.
The virtual world was a new world that surpassed reality. Every blade of grass and every tree in it was made up of data. In order to develop this world, there must be a huge number of programmers working tirelessly to create this world like a swarm of ants.
Therefore, Monster Industries outsourced the construction of most of the world scenes to Tencent games. They were only responsible for the construction of the core scenes.
Who would have thought that after hearing Ye Qing's description, Wang Yu's tone would be filled with shock.
"Mr. Ye, you want to invite all the big names in the film industry to Shanghai and persuade them to move their film resources to the virtual reality movie theater?"
“666～”
Wang Yuting said emotionally, "Mr. Ye, you've taken the step that Tencent dreams of taking."
Ye Qing asked back, "Then do you think we can succeed?"
"If we were chatting on WeChat, I would definitely send you a shaking emoji."
"I don't think you can succeed!"
"You don't know, but it's very difficult for Tencent Video to upload a movie that was taken down two months ago."
Wang Yuting pursed his lips. "Do you know what the producers are saying?"
"They actually said that if we upload the movie to Tencent, pirated copies will be everywhere. This will seriously damage the producers' interests."
"A trashy movie with a box office of less than 20 million. What producers' interests are they talking about? It's already in high definition online."
"We have to try to know." Ye Qing was amused by his indignant look. "Besides, we're different from Tencent. You don't have the technology to counter piracy, but we do."
"As long as they can move the latest film and television resources into the virtual world, I can guarantee them that no one will be able to copy high-definition film and television resources from the virtual world."
"I believe that," Wang Yuting quickly agreed. "Since Mr. Ye needs help, of course, we have no objections."
"It just so happens that we have a holographic promotional video specially shot for the National Campaign. I'll get the technical side to edit it, organize it, and send it over."
"I'll look for the boss tomorrow and report about the film and television resources."
"Mr. Ye, you know that Tencent has always been in the business of pan-entertainment. We have our own film and television team, and we've filmed a lot of film and television resources in the past few years. We want to have exclusive high-quality copyrights in our hands. "
"I'm very confident that I can persuade the boss to put the film and television resources that we'll release in the future into virtual reality and set an example for other film and television companies."
