Smearing was not scary.
What was scary was this extremely professional smearing mixed with a lot of seemingly "reasonable" graphic information.
No matter how much the netizens trusted the holographic glasses, when they saw the various high-tech detection equipment pictures and the professional test results in the article. Naturally, they would subconsciously think that the holographic glasses were likely to be particularly harmful to vision.
As the saying goes, three people make a tiger, not to mention that there was a pair of invisible black hands behind the scenes.
In just one day, this article was reposted on major forums and many news media.
Monster Industries' official website was not spared. Since the article appeared, users who had paid chose to refund it.
The fast-growing number of holographic glasses that had sold close to two million units also slowed down as the article spread everywhere.
Some users posted this article on the official website forum, and some people frantically contacted customer service, hoping that Monster Industries would give them an explanation.
The staff of the company's publicity department issued an announcement immediately, pointing out that there was a large amount of falsification in the test data in the article. They also warned the author of this article that Monster Industries would use legal means to protect the rights of its products.
Unfortunately, in the eyes of most netizens, Monster Industries' statement was too weak.
Instead, it was more like an emergency breakthrough that was caught off guard.
Those products involved in the field of VR and technology companies in the field of imaging could see the falsification of this article. However, these companies themselves regarded holographic glasses as a terrifying enemy. How could they stand up for holographic glasses?
...
Inside the Monster Industries building.
Ye Qing, Kong Tao, and Ji Ke, the general manager of the network department, were standing in the data collection center of the network department, looking at the fast-rolling data flow on the big screen in front of them.
Now, the company's server was using smart search functions to track down the earliest publisher of this smearing article.
At first, Ye Qing thought it was the group of Big Vs that led the momentum yesterday. However, the network department's preliminary search found that the Big Vs were not the original publishers of the article.
It was easy to track down the earliest publisher. They just needed to follow the clue of the time of publication.
The answer came out quickly.
When this article first appeared on the Internet, it was 7: 30 in the morning, on a niche forum called [VR Future].
A large number of hardcore VR enthusiasts gathered in this forum. They usually shared various VR resources in this forum and discussed the pros and cons of different VR products. Although the forum was a niche, the professional level of registered users was no less than half an expert.
There was no doubt that the forum was flooded with posts about the holographic glasses. Before the article appeared, the forum users had already put the holographic glasses on a pedestal.
Almost everyone had a pair of holographic glasses. While ordinary consumers were still figuring out how to use the holographic glasses, the users had already listed out in detail the six most dazzling enhancements of the holographic glasses.
Then, a user who had been registered for more than two years but posted for the first time posted a post titled [Let the science speak. Will holographic glasses aggravate myopia?] After the post, it quickly disappeared.
Compared to the outside world, the users of this forum were much calmer.
When the article appeared, they did not believe in it, but raised scientific doubts. This group of hardcore VR players had played with holographic glasses for almost the entire night. Their eyes were indeed sore, but this feeling was no different from staying up all night to watch dramas.
There were also knowledgeable people who stood up to refute the detection data in the article, pointing out that there were no detection data numbers with detection instruments on the test reports, which were obviously printed by ordinary printers.
In addition, this account that ran after sending it was also very similar to the style of those professional water armies.
Unfortunately, this is only a niche forum, and their voices can't affect the outside world that is pushed by people with intentions.
"Boss, the other party's IP is covered with multiple layers of commercial proxy servers. If you want to trace his original IP, you must get the server logs of these commercial servers. "
After tapping his hands on the keyboard for a while, he pointed to the screen and said, "The other party's technique is very professional. I guess it's useless to find his real IP in the end."
"Because this kind of person will not use fixed equipment to surf the Internet, it must be a notebook with a 4G network. After posting, he will stay away from the base station that provides him with the network."
"In addition, I also contacted the administrator of this forum in the name of the company. The account registration information provided by the other party did not leave any effective information that could be traced."
Ye Qing nodded. "That depends on the analysis results of the technical department."
The IP can be covered and the proxy server can be changed at will.
But the more than a dozen photos in the article can't be fake.
Four photos of the test report and seven photos of the test instrument.
The test report can be omitted, but the author of this article may have deliberately taken a lot of photos of the test instrument in the laboratory to make the content more convincing.
Although these photos hide the complete appearance of the test instrument, only the details of the test window are shown.
The guys who took these photos forgot one thing. Which laboratory dares to stand shoulder to shoulder with Monster Industries in terms of the number of instruments?
This kind of professional electromagnetic wave detection instrument, even if the global brands are counted together, there are only a dozen manufacturers. The technical department has so many technicians and engineers who deal with instruments all day long. How can they not recognize the instrument model in the photo?
Not to mention the technician, even Ye Qing can recognize one of them.
It was this entry-level material shielding efficiency tester from [Texas Instrument Company] that made Ye Qing conclude that these photos of the instrument could not have been taken in an electromagnetic wave related laboratory with a certain reputation in the world.
Think about it, it's really an internationally renowned laboratory. Which dares to publicly brew this kind of fake test result?
This is tantamount to handing the best physical evidence to the outside world to destroy themselves.
...
After the photos went around several technical departments, the answer came out.
There are a total of nine instruments in the seven photos. After the technicians identified the nine instruments, three of them are from Texas Instrument and two are from the United States PCB Company. Of the remaining four, three are from Germany and one is from Japan.
They are all entry-level foreign products.
Most of the performance of these instruments are entry-level. Monster Industries has no interest in introducing these low-end instruments.
What to do with the instrument model?
Of course, to find out the name and location of the laboratory.
Except for the laboratories involved in confidential research projects that are not open to the public, the rest of the university laboratories or corporate laboratories will undertake their own research projects while accepting some subsidies.
If you want to accept a job, you will have to make public the contact information of the experiment and the types of instruments in the laboratory.
The more advanced and complete the instrument model, the more authoritative the test results will be, and the higher the fee will be.
Even if you don't accept a job, these experimental institutions that are not involved in confidential projects will also make public the level qualifications of their respective experimental institutions. Through the corresponding website, you can inquire about the corresponding test instruments in the laboratory.
Like the Electromagnetic Radiation and Protection Research Laboratory, this kind of unpopular experimental institution, even looking at the whole world, the number of existence will not exceed four digits.
The rest is matching time, which experimental institution to match, at the same time, has the above nine types of testing instruments of the same manufacturer.
Even manual matching is not necessary. The calculation can be done by entering some codes and the models of these instruments, and the intelligent retrieval program can complete this task.
In less than a cigarette time, the retrieval program gave the final seven matching results.
Two are located in the United States, three in Europe, one in Japan, and one in Hua Xia.
Hua Xia is located in the Yuejiang Delta economic zone.
"I tend to think that the photos are from a laboratory in the United States." Kong Tao pointed to the two United States experimental institutions on the screen. "This kind of technical flow is not like something that the old guys who make movies can play with."
"The United States is the most suspicious because they have Microsoft and Google, two companies that are also developing glasses display technology products."
"I think it might be the one in Japan."
Network manager Ji Ke gave a different reason. "Although the United States is the most suspicious, our holographic glasses have only been on sale for three days. Even if they release it here, they can buy holographic glasses in the flagship store and send them to the United States. It will take two days to arrive."
"This article appeared early in the morning. Do they have enough time?"
Kong Tao nodded subconsciously and felt that the time was indeed not enough. Fortunately, he still had a trick up his sleeve. "Then let's check the connection location of the holographic glasses. We should be able to determine which experimental institution it is."
The holographic glasses must be connected to the Internet to activate and bind the user's identity to the iris.
Similarly, the network connection must be maintained at all times during its use.
Now, a take-out app can always locate the user's location, let alone the holographic glasses.
The location of these seven experimental institutions is marked on the electronic map, and then the main server of the holographic glasses is connected to retrieve all user login records. Any login records that appear within ten kilometers of these seven experimental institutions will be presented in the form of a red dot.
The holographic glasses have only been on sale for three days, and they are currently only available in Hua Xia.
If the red dot of the login record appears around the experimental institution located abroad, it is almost certain that the photos in the article came from there.
When the answer appeared, Kong Tao and Ji Ke looked at each other, and their eyes were full of surprise.
Around the six experimental institutions located abroad, including Japan, which Ji Ke suspected, there were no login records.
On the contrary, located in the Yuejiang Delta Economic Zone, around the only eligible experimental institution in China, there were no less than ten login records.
Among them, there were two login records, and the location was inside the experimental institution. The login time was from three to six o'clock in the morning and from nine to eleven thirty in the morning.
- Yuejiang Langxin Technology Electromagnetic Research Laboratory.
This is the registered name of this experimental institution.
Kong Tao thought that this laboratory is dead.
Ji Ke thought, is there any law in this damn thing?
"I'll only give you two hours."
Ye Qing patted the two men on the shoulder. "Within two hours, more conclusive evidence and all the information of the mastermind behind this matter should be put on my desk.
