It was twelve o 'clock in Hua Xia.
It was late at night in the United States.
The person who broke the silence was Tim, the head of Apple.
In the stifling atmosphere of the room, a few people grunted in acknowledgment. Then, without saying a word, they activated the holographic glasses on the bridge of their noses.
In front of them, in addition to the full-posture simulator, the temperature control plug-in, and the primordial spirit suit on their bodies, each of them also had a set of data terminal system.
God knows how Monster Industries was able to get this device, which was launched less than three days ago, across the sea to the United States in such a short time. Even if they took a plane, it would take nearly 20 hours of air travel from Hua Xia to the United States.
Twelve o 'clock, the time was just right.
After Tim, the head of Apple, and several senior engineers activated the holographic glasses, a colorful door that was constantly glowing appeared in front of them in the virtual operation interface.
Tim and several others were no strangers to this kind of portal.
As early as a few days after the holographic glasses were launched, the holographic glasses appeared in their hands. When the national entertainment activities were launched, they also mixed in with countless users and seriously visited the activity maps.
At the beginning, they concluded that the holographic glasses were not only the future of the next generation of Internet, but also the future of the next generation of mobile phones.
The concept of traditional mobile phones would completely disappear.
At this stage, for some reason, Monster Industries did not choose to integrate the functions of mobile phones into the holographic glasses.
Now, to use the holographic glasses, they also needed a good mobile phone to act as a data processing device.
If ~
Monster Industries combined the mobile phone and the holographic glasses into one?
Before Monster Industries, Apple held the most advanced mobile phone patent technology today. They understood that it was not too difficult to integrate the functions of a mobile phone into the holographic glasses.
Because the mobile phone casing, display, and battery were removed, there were not many electronic components left. They only needed to integrate these electronic components into the holographic glasses. There was no technical difficulty.
If the two were combined into one, they could also save the wireless data transmission module in the holographic glasses.
If Apple had this technology, they would have combined the mobile phone and the holographic glasses. Selling to users like this, they could also make more profit from a mobile phone. As for whether the glasses were a little too big and bulky, it was not in their consideration at all.
Fortunately, Monster Industries didn't do that, giving Apple a chance to breathe.
Thinking of his sadness, Tim, the head of Apple, no longer hesitated. He stood on the full-posture simulator and connected the balance arm of the simulator to the primordial spirit suit.
The connection was successful, and he entered the full-posture simulation mode.
Tim took a deep breath and stepped through the portal.
…
With a single step, the world changed.
When Tim opened his eyes again, the operation interface and the depressing atmosphere in the room seemed to have become a dream that had just ended.
Now, everything he saw was the real world.
Tim, the head of Apple, rubbed his eyes subconsciously. What he saw in front of him was not a city full of magic or science fiction as he had imagined. Every corner of the city was filled with curious users who had just entered the virtual world for the first time.
Then, the users let out cries of surprise, like the ignorant natives of a primitive tribe who had come to Manhattan Avenue.
In the end, he was completely wrong.
There were no other users, nor were there any curious cries.
In front of Tim was a white-clothed angel wearing a mask, revealing only a pair of watery eyes.
"Excuse me, are you awake?"
"Don't worry, you've been asleep for a long time. We need to make a judgment on your physical condition."
"She speaks English?" Tim felt that he was lying on a slightly cold bed.
In addition, for some reason, his body had become a little stiff.
The virtual world belonged to Hua Xia, and the holographic glasses would have an English interface when users registered. But Tim didn't expect that after transmigrating into the virtual world and experiencing a plot scene, there would also be an NPC communicating with him in English.
An intelligent NPC?
It should be. Tim, the head of Apple, didn't think that it would be a real person acting, even if the other party looked very human.
"But even if it's just an NPC, Monster Industries has been showing its strength to crush us all the time." Tim, the head of Apple, laughed at himself and then put on a patch similar to an ECG monitor according to the nurse's instructions.
This test was just a formality. The instrument next to it showed Tim's age and gender, as well as a lot of things he didn't understand.
"Hello, warrior who has been asleep for a long time."
The NPC nurse said gently, "You can try to stand up now."
Tim stood up, only to find that he was in a ward full of 22nd century hospital styles.
No …
Tim felt that it might be more accurate to describe it as a laboratory. He actually saw equipment like a nutrition chamber and a large culture tube here.
Just as Tim was looking around blankly, the nurse said with a slightly regretful voice, "Unfortunately, warrior, because you've been asleep for too long, we can't find any information about you in our citizen records."
"But don't worry, since you've woken up."
"Then you can register a new citizen identity for yourself. You can choose your name, your race, and your appearance."
The nurse chuckled softly and said, "You just need to note that your gender can't be changed. Your new appearance can't exceed five years of your real age. Your height can't exceed five centimeters above and below your current height. "
"This is creating a new character." The head of Apple, Tim, who was originally gloomy, gradually became excited.
The tempting experience of integrating into a new world with a new citizen identity was an exciting journey that Tim had never experienced before in his life.
Tim set his new identity as a human and then adjusted his appearance to that of a weathered uncle.
At the same time, Tim also noticed that every instrument and every decoration in the hospital ward that he woke up in was so real. Tim casually touched the surface of the instrument, and the tactile feedback he received was also extremely delicate and real.
It was hard and cold.
Everything in front of him gave him the illusion that this was reality.
Except for his own appearance.
Maybe it was to protect his real appearance, or to remind users not to mistake this world for reality. Therefore, when Tim created his new identity, no matter how he adjusted his appearance, it would eventually have a cartoonish feel.
This style was very cool and handsome.
…
When Tim, the head of Apple, completed the registration of his new identity and walked out of the hospital under the guidance of the nurse …
Only then did Tim discover that all kinds of humans dressed like him were already standing on the street.
Almost everyone's eyes were filled with surprise, shock, and intense curiosity and indulgence.
Tim called up the friend panel and looked at the list of friends that he had added before entering the virtual world.
There were a total of six people on the list, all of whom were senior programmers in the company.
Now, all six of them were online. Tim opened their information one by one and found that their race column had changed to various types.
Orc.
Undead.
Goblin.
Vulcan race.
Shalatai race.
Cybertron machine race.
After looking around, Tim realized that he was the only human identity.
Tim didn't care that his identity was different.
Everyone's purpose in entering the virtual world was to evaluate this world in all aspects and evaluate what impact it would bring to technology companies like them.
Since Tim was surrounded by people of the same race, it meant that the birthplaces or planets of different races were definitely different. Since everyone was scattered across different planets, they could use a broader perspective to evaluate the virtual world.
Thinking of this, Tim sent a call request to Engineer Bristow.
This engineer was in charge of the artificial intelligence project, and Tim knew that he was a fan of Star Wars. Now that Bristow had chosen the identity of a Vulcan, he had gotten what he wanted.
The call request was quickly picked up. Tim believed that Engineer Bristow would also encounter a situation similar to his in the hospital. Therefore, he wanted to hear Bristow's evaluation of the artificial intelligence NPCs here.
But …
After the question was asked, Engineer Bristow only grunted after a long time, as if he was busy with something important.
Tim coughed. "So, what's your evaluation?"
After a few seconds, Engineer Bristow seemed to be in a daze. "Ah ~ Boss, what did you just say?"
