On the high platform, the press conference officially began.
It was the same old routine. Naturally, the beginning of the press conference would be accompanied by a monologue. Li Yue was naturally no exception!
"Science and technology make society progress. Science and technology make human life better and better. Humans use their own wisdom to change their lives. Since ancient times, all epoch-making inventions or discoveries have been the inspiration of some lazy smart people!"
Li Yue stood on the high platform with a calm expression and spoke freely.
Even in the face of countless flashes and cameras below the stage, and in the face of many heads of large enterprises, he was still calm and at ease.
"We know that a long, long time ago, in the primitive era, before humans learned to use tools to eat raw meat and drink blood, the ancients crossed the river!
"At that time, boats had not been invented yet. Most people only had one way to cross the river, and that was to swim!
"However, swimming across the river was not only tiring, but also unsafe. Until one day, a smart young man saw a piece of wood floating in the river, and an idea suddenly flashed through his mind! He thought, 'Since wood can float on the water, why can't I use wood to cross the river? As long as I stand on the wood, I can naturally float across the river smoothly. It's safe and effortless!
"This is the origin of boats. Of course, this is just an analogy!"
At this point, Li Yue smiled and immediately continued, "The reason why humans have invented so many things is all because of 'laziness'. Therefore, those epoch-making scientists and inventors are actually the same as us. However, they are the kind of smart 'lazy bastards'!
"For example, Newton, Edison, or more recently, Tony Stark!"
Everyone below the stage burst into laughter. The famous Mr. Iron Man was actually called a smart 'lazy bastard' here. They really couldn't help but laugh!
However, when they thought about it, all the inventions of human beings, whether it was electric lights, cars, planes, ships … Almost all of them were because they wanted to enjoy a better life and wanted to be lazy.
Even weapons were the same. The pursuit of efficiency and power was nothing more than making it more convenient to kill people.
"I'm no exception. I'm a lazy person! I love to play games, chat online, and watch movies. But sometimes, I feel that operating a computer is too troublesome. Why do I need a keyboard to type? How 'unreasonable' this is! "
At this point, not only did the audience laugh, even Li Yue himself couldn't help but grin!
"So, I was thinking, why is there no game in this world that I can play, watch movies, or listen to music whenever I want to?"
"Everyone knows that I graduated from Columbia University. Of course, I didn't study computer programming, but I know a little about it. For example, the virtual network! "
"So, I started to work on this matter. However, I naturally couldn't find anything. Fortunately, I had resources, and I had many smart people under me! Of course, there's also a trace of luck. "
"Therefore, with the hard work of many 'smart and lazy' people in our company, this epoch-making product, the 'virtual platform', was finally presented to everyone!"
"From now on, I don't have to worry about not being able to slack off! When the time comes, as long as I lie in bed, I can freely play games, browse the web, watch movies, and make friends... "
"At present, Noah's product is only the game 'Myth'. The reason is very simple. It's because I love to play games. I want to be the first to try virtual games. I believe that most people are looking forward to it like me."
"The other projects of the virtual platform have been jointly developed by our partner companies. I believe that it won't be long before virtual communities, virtual Earth, virtual search... Everything will be presented to everyone!"
"Of course, the power of an individual is always limited. This virtual platform is very big, and we also welcome other companies to join us and develop it together. As for the specifics, you can contact the company's new president, Mr. Lawrence, after the launch. He will take care of these matters!"
At this point, Li Yue took a deep breath. "Okay, I'm sure everyone is a little impatient after talking so much nonsense. Now, let's officially introduce today's' main character '!"
After that, Li Yue clapped his hands and the backstage curtains were pulled open, revealing today's' main character '— a virtual helmet and a virtual gaming pod!
The helmet's design was simple and looked like an ordinary motorcycle helmet. However, it had sharp edges and was silver-white in color. It looked very sci-fi. There were also several long wires connected to the bottom of the helmet. Those were the network and power ports!
As for the virtual gaming pod, it was nearly one meter wide, two meters long, and one meter tall. It looked like a 'coffin', but it was also silver-white in color. The craftsmanship of the edges and corners was exceptionally fine.
"What everyone is looking at today is our main character, a virtual helmet and a virtual gaming pod!"
"I believe that everyone is no stranger to them after watching advertisements for the past few months. Some of the data on them should be very clear. Therefore, I won't waste any more time here. Let's get straight to the point. We'll officially put them on and experience it! "
"However, because 'Myth' is the only project on the virtual platform at present, and the other projects are still in the process of being developed, what we'll be looking at today is how to use the helmet or the virtual gaming pod to connect to the network and enter the virtual world!"
As Li Yue spoke, he raised his head and whispered, "Noah, turn on the big screen!"
"Yes, Sir!"
The big screen on the stage suddenly lit up. A silver 'logo' appeared in the air and then disappeared.
Soon, the screen was projected with a lonely, huge font — 'Myth'!
"Everyone, what you're looking at now is the scene on the virtual platform. There's only one 'Myth' right now. Everything in 'Myth' is controlled by our company's artificial intelligence core, Noah. Noah's computing power is amazing. It can guarantee that everyone on Earth can play the game at the same time without any problems!"
"Later, we'll let someone personally test it out and enter 'Myth'. When the time comes, everything that happens inside will be projected on this big screen. I guarantee that everyone will be able to see everything clearly!"
At this point, Li Yue paused for a moment before continuing, "However, I think that if I were to wear the helmet and test it out myself, I don't think anyone would agree and be suspicious. So, how about this? I'll invite a few guests here!"
"This one, this one, this one! Gentlemen, I'll have to trouble you to make a trip. I wonder if you're interested? "
The three people who were named were not to be trifled with. One of them was Google's CEO, Mr. Schmidt.
"More than happy to!"
The three guests wore smiles on their faces. They were calm and collected. They walked from below the stage to the stage in a few steps. Facing the many cameras and cameras, their expressions did not change.
After all, they were all big shots. What kind of situation had they not seen before? Naturally, they would not feel nervous.
Li Yue shook hands with the three guests and then said to the audience, "I believe that everyone knows these three. I don't think anyone would say that they're 'actors' that I've invited! The fractions of their salaries are more than my salary! "
The audience laughed. Everyone knew these three people. Naturally, no one would believe that they were hired by Noah.
"Hello everyone, I'm Schmidt from Google. Since I've been chosen, let me try it out myself. I've heard from my colleagues that I'm really looking forward to it!" Schmidt smiled faintly. "Don't look at me like that. Otherwise, I'll be nervous!"
"Haha!"
The audience burst into laughter!
"Hello everyone, I'm Catalan from Oracle!"
"I'm Ferrence from Umbrella!"
After the three introduced themselves, Li Yue immediately said to them, "Alright, I'm sure you can't wait any longer. Now, let's see the effect together!"
As he spoke, Li Yue waved his hand. A few staff members came forward and brought three silver-white virtual reality helmets!
"The big screen will show the scene in the virtual world. Now, it's time to witness a miracle!"
