As Kong Tao's voice fell, the smallest planet in the universe that was constantly rotating in front of the representatives of various companies was suddenly selected to be enlarged, and the other planets disappeared.
Commercial Star No. 27.
The area of this planet was only one-thousandth the size of Earth. On the surface of the enlarged planet, it was dominated by rolling mountains, and there were not many areas suitable for development into plains for commercial activities.
Of course ~
No matter how small the area was, it was still an independent planet.
"The starting price is one million, and each bid must not be less than 100,000."
"Start now."
"Five million!" Almost instantly, someone among the company representatives raised the price sharply.
"Twenty million."
"Thirty million."
The price increase started from one million and quickly jumped to ten million. Finally, when someone called out a price of 130 million, it gradually calmed down. This showed that the price of 130 million had almost reached the maximum range that everyone could accept.
In the end, Commercial Star No. 27 was sold at a price of 150 million.
The commercial star auctioned this time only had a five-year right to use. Within these five years, the planet was not allowed to develop other content except for commercial nature.
For example, gambling, games, movies, and so on.
If it was in the real business district, I'm afraid that this rule could only be implemented on paper. Such a large piece of land was rented by others, and they could do whatever they wanted behind the scenes.
But in the virtual world, all violations could be eliminated as long as the model code they submitted was reviewed.
If the review was not passed, they could not add any buildings on the commercial star.
Next was Commercial Star No. 26.
This commercial star was sold at a price of 175 million, and the buyer was Qiancao Snacks Company, which was a little famous in the retail brand industry.
Commercial Star No. 25, Commercial Star No. 20 …
As the commercial star area of the auction grew larger and larger, the price competition between the representatives of various companies became more and more heated.
They completely owned a planet that belonged to them, and there were no other commercial brands. This kind of temptation and the improvement of brand influence was not comparable to any kind of advertising.
Finally, it was Commercial Star No. 4.
This was the fourth commercial star in this auction. This commercial star not only had magnificent mountains up to 10,000 meters high, but also a flat green grassland and an endless lake and sea. Almost all the company representatives showed a covetous expression on this planet.
I want to buy this planet.
Wallet: No, you don't want to buy it.
This planet was finally bought by the representative of the headline company behind TikTok for 4.6 billion and renamed [TikTok Happy Planet] on the spot.
The third commercial star was bought by Jingdong.
The second largest commercial star was bought by the Tencent Empire at a price of nearly 6 billion.
The largest commercial planet was taken over by the wealthy Ali. They wanted to turn this planet into a shopping paradise in the virtual world. They could not wait to change the name on the spot — Cat Planet.
…
After the auction of the commercial planet, all the companies that had won the rights to use the commercial planet for five years immediately announced in a high-profile manner that they were going to build their most unique flagship planet in the virtual world.
The internet was once again shaken.
Countless internet users were not the only ones who were shocked by the arrival of the virtual world. This made all the internet technology companies and offline physical property owners fall into an unprecedented tense and busy state.
Some conservative scholars lamented that the virtual world was an unprecedented cancer that poisoned the development of education and technology.
It would be more addictive to teenagers than online games. It would make them fall into the virtual world and waste their real life work.
Those middle-aged and elderly people with traditional thinking who were already out of touch with the modern Internet society were all frightened when they talked about the virtual world.
But what a pity.
The development of science and technology would not change according to human will.
Just as they were spreading the news and calling for a boycott of the virtual world.
Countless pioneers with a keen sense of smell had already regarded the virtual world as a new starting point for their future career.
There were already technology companies that bought land in the commercial district designated by the system city, and then built their companies in the virtual world according to the company framework in reality.
They believed that under the conditions of today's paperless office conditions, they could try to move their companies into the virtual world and carry out an unprecedented attempt at a completely virtual office.
The benefits of doing so were countless.
Many cultural artists who were honored to be invited by Monster Industries to participate in that national entertainment event. They were all inspired by that event and rented a large shop in the commercial district of the system city. They were busy using the decoration model provided by the system to decorate the shop into a classroom style.
— — Virtual teaching.
These artists believed that this teaching method, which directly faced countless users in the country, must be more influential and popular than the traditional model of holding training classes but only harvesting students within ten kilometers of the training class.
Traditional cultural arts could be promoted and taught in the virtual world, so of course, other cultural knowledge could also be used in this way.
As long as it existed in reality, it could be implemented in the virtual world and done better.
For example, excavators!
In real life, if you wanted to learn how to drive an excavator. Not only did you have to go through several cities, but you even had to cross provinces to go to Lanxiang Vocational School.
An excavator could easily cost hundreds of thousands, or even millions. No matter how rich a technical school was, they would not dare to throw such a precious thing to the students to practice. They had to learn a lot of theory courses, and the instructor repeatedly emphasized the precautions of operation.
When the students actually operated with the instructor, they also had to bear the high cost of oil and equipment wear and tear of the excavator.
What if the teaching was applied to the virtual world?
The training school bought a batch of excavators in the virtual world and could take the students to run wild in the boundless wilderness.
Not to mention digging, no one would care if they drove a group of excavators into battle.
The virtual world had endless positive meanings. Currently, the biggest complaint of users was only the problem of its high price.
Wearing holographic glasses could also experience the virtual world, but its image was exquisite and the experience could not be compared to that of the MDT.
This problem was seen as a huge business opportunity by countless wealthy individual businessmen.
Can't afford the 68,000 yuan MDT?
No problem, then I'll open a virtual world internet cafe.
Opening an internet cafe now and assembling a set of high-end computer equipment would cost more than 10,000 yuan, and there was a high risk of losing money. But if you gritted your teeth and invested in a virtual world internet cafe, you would know that it would be full 24 hours.
Holographic glasses.
MDT.
Universal treadmill, low-end version of the primordial spirit set.
With these four sets of hardware investment, which was close to 100,000 yuan, he could build a complete set of teleportation portals in the virtual world.
According to the calculation of 20 yuan per hour, you could recoup all the investment in the virtual world equipment in eight months. A year later, you could recoup all the investment, including the store fees and maintenance fees, and enter the stage of crazy profits.
If there were more competitors, you could just lower the fees.
You could calculate blindly, and there was no risk of losing money.
…
It was supposed to be the busiest time.
Ye Qing pushed back all the itineraries and stayed alone in the Longxitan factory office.
Because at this moment, the manufacturing index of the Monster Factory had finally surpassed the world's number one, Boeing, and started to enter the ninth stage of the upgrade process.
