Pei Qian had just finished washing up when his phone rang.
He looked at the caller ID and saw that it was Meng Chang.
"Hmm?"
Pei Qian was a little puzzled. Why did Meng Chang take the initiative to look for him?
Although it was almost the end of the month, hadn't Meng Chang already given up on this month's commission?
Even if it was a new publicity plan, they would have to start considering it next month, right?
However, after some thought, Pei Qian picked it up. "Hello? What's the matter? "
Meng Chang probed on the other end of the line, "Oh, Boss Pei, there's actually nothing special. I just heard that Slow Movement Studio and Shenhua Corporation have already produced a few samples of the VR glasses jointly developed. Do you want to try them out? "
"Didn't you always teach me that I have to understand the product before I make a publicity plan?"
Pei Qian could not help but frown.
Hmm?
The prototype of the VR glasses was already ready?
This was too f * cking fast!
However, on second thought, VR glasses of this level were not a particularly difficult project to develop. Strictly speaking, the VR glasses were not developed by Slow Movement Studio, but by a department of Shenhua Corporation's original cell phone business. They were very familiar with all the businesses, so it was normal for them to be fast.
However …
Pei Qian had not heard anything about this VR glasses at all. If Meng Chang had not taken the initiative to call him this time, he probably would not have known that the glasses had been created.
But on second thought, there was nothing he could do about it.
The VR glasses were Slow Movement Workspace's project after all. Slow Movement Workspace could only be considered a game company that Tengda had invested in. It was neither a wholly-owned subsidiary nor a subordinate department. There was no need for Lin Wan to report everything.
What's more, Lin Wan probably felt that it would be inappropriate for her to frequently ask for Boss Pei's instructions and disturb him because of her own workspace. Thus, she would not take the initiative to tell him before the product was completed.
That made it difficult for Pei Qian to grasp the current situation of Slow Movement Workspace.
It could only be said that where there are gains, there are losses!
In order to chase Lin Wan away, Pei Qian came up with this plan for Tengda and Shenhua to jointly fund the establishment of Slow Movement Workspace. However, this would definitely cause the news there to not be as smooth as his own departments.
Fortunately, Meng Chang came to snitch.
Pei Qian nodded immediately. "Of course! Then we'll meet at Chi Xing Studio in an hour. "
To Pei Qian, the best outcome for this VR glasses project was to lose money and lose everything. That way, all the money that Tengda had invested would be wasted.
On the other hand, the second worst outcome would be that the game did not make any profit at all. They would have worked for nothing and gained some reputation. Not only would he not earn any money, but he would also be able to push Lin Wan further away from Tengda Corporation.
In the worst case scenario, the game would be profitable.
Thus, Pei Qian had to go and take a look to understand the situation.
Although he felt that there was no reason for the VR project to be popular at this time, and even if it was popular, it was impossible to recoup such a huge amount of research and development funds. However, it was better to be safe than sorry. He had to see a sample to feel at ease.
What's more, he had to demonstrate to Meng Chang how to carry out reverse publicity correctly. It was necessary to take a look at the product.
On the other hand.
Meng Chang hung up and immediately prepared to take a taxi to Slow Movement Studio.
This time, it was official business, so it could be reimbursed. There was no need to take the bus!
The reason why he knew that the VR glasses sample had been sent to Slow Movement Workspace was mainly because he had been paying attention to the VR glasses project.
He really wanted to see how Boss Pei would complete the reverse publicity for this project!
In Meng Chang's opinion, VR glasses were already a project that could not fail.
Shenhua and Tengda Corporation had invested a huge sum of money. The successful game designer, Lin Wan, had personally worked on it. The original team of Shang Yang Games had helped, and Shenhua's cell phone department was in charge of the development of VR glasses.
Some time ago, he even accidentally buried a huge foreshadowing: Teacher Qiao.
If the publicity plans that Meng Chang had made previously were difficult, then this project looked like hell no matter how he looked at it.
Could Boss Pei even handle this?
Meng Chang did not believe it.
It was not that he did not believe in Boss Pei's ability, but he wanted to broaden his horizons.
Thus, he had been paying attention to this project. He immediately informed Boss Pei the moment he heard the news from the people in charge.
At that moment, Meng Chang was like a primary school student who thirsted for knowledge.
To him, it was boring to learn serious knowledge. This kind of unorthodox knowledge was interesting!
If Boss Pei could really succeed in publicity under such difficulty, Meng Chang would definitely be willing to bow down to him and call Boss Pei the strongest!
…
An hour later, Pei Qian arrived at Slow Movement Workspace.
Meng Chang was already there. Lin Wan, Cai Jiadong, Ye Zhizhou, the VR glasses product manager, Old Song, Teacher Qiao, and the others were all there.
"Boss Pei!" Everyone greeted him.
Lin Wan was very touched to see Boss Pei personally.
If it was in Shang Yang Games, Lin Wan would definitely ask Boss Pei immediately if she developed a new piece of equipment.
However, it was different now.
She was now the highest person-in-charge of Slow Movement Workspace. Tengda and Slow Movement Workspace only had an investment relationship.
This VR glasses was only a prototype. It was not appropriate to alarm Boss Pei over such a small matter.
It was just like how Shenhua Corporation was also an investor in Slow Movement Workspace. Should they ask Shenhua's President, Old Master Lin, to take a look at the VR glasses after they were made? It was definitely not appropriate.
Thus, Lin Wan felt that she should bear all the responsibility if there were any problems. It would not be too late to send a copy to Boss Pei when the final mass-produced version of the VR glasses was released.
However, she did not expect Boss Pei to take the initiative to come over!
Obviously, Boss Pei knew that Slow Movement Workspace had just been established and was worried about the project here. That was why he came over to take a look.
It was as if their child had just stayed in school and their parents were worried. They still ran over to take a look through the school fence in the middle of the day even though they knew that they should not visit.
As for the chief designer of Slow Movement Workspace, Cai Jiadong, Ye Zhizhou, Qiao Liang, and the others, they had the same thought.
Boss Pei was here. They would have a backbone!
This project would be stable now that Boss Pei was here!
Pei Qian did not know how rich everyone's thoughts were. Time was precious, so he went straight to the point. "Where are the glasses?"
"Here." Cai Jiadong immediately took two samples of VR glasses from the side.
After Boss Pei and Meng Chang reached out to take the glasses, he took four handles from the side and handed them over. "These are the handles."
Pei Qian reached out to take it. Before he could put it on his head, he fell silent.
This unique design … What was going on?!
At the moment, most of the VR glasses on the market were similar. From the front, they looked like ordinary rounded rectangles or slightly curved. The color scheme was mainly white and looked more rigid.
On the other hand, Slow Movement Workspace's VR glasses were full of edges and corners. They were wider than ordinary VR glasses. They were dark black and had a high-tech carbon fiber material. There was also a V-shape with red and blue lighting effects on it. It looked quite cool.
The shape of the glasses was similar to a V-shape, but the angle was not as exaggerated as the V-shape light.
There were two inconspicuous round holes above the V-shape light. They were two cameras used for positioning.
Unlike ordinary VR glasses with three straps on both sides, the main body of this VR glasses was relatively independent. The strap was not directly connected to the main body of the glasses, but to the "forehead protector".
The forehead protector was in the shape of a crescent moon. The arc was perfect for an ordinary person's forehead. It was not bare, but there was a flat hexagonal protrusion with the logo of Slow Movement Studio engraved on it.
That was because it was not connected to the main body of the VR glasses but to the forehead protector above. Thus, the strap did not extend horizontally to the back of the head. Instead, it extended diagonally to the bottom of the back of the head.
At the end of the strap was a long battery compartment. After putting it on, the strap would automatically adjust and tighten. Of course, there were also manual adjustment knobs and unlock buttons.
There were pads on the forehead protector and the battery compartment that were close to the skin to better fit the player's head and improve comfort. At the same time, it was to isolate the heat that the battery compartment might emit.
Compared to other VR glasses that used elastic straps to tighten it, the biggest advantage of this design was convenience and comfort.
Other VR glasses were very troublesome to wear. Different people had to adjust the length of the strap. If it was too tight, it would be very uncomfortable. If it was too loose, it would not be able to be worn and would easily fall off.
What's more, the VR glasses would feel heavy. The front half would be more pressing on the face.
Through this design, the VR glasses used the battery compartment as a counterweight at the back to balance the weight distribution of the VR glasses.
Most of the weight was on the forehead protector and not connected to the main body of the glasses. That way, it was equivalent to the entire main body of the glasses hanging on the forehead protector and not feeling that it was pressing on the face.
When wearing it, one only needed to wear the glasses on their face, open the unlock button of the battery compartment, lengthen the strap, and buckle it on their head. The strap would automatically tighten. It was very convenient to wear and could adapt to different head shapes.
However, this was obviously not the most outrageous thing. These two handles were even more outrageous!
The handles of other VR glasses were basically a cylindrical object with a joystick and a few buttons at the top.
However, the handle of this VR glasses was more like a futuristic sci-fi style pistol, except that the barrel was much shorter than a normal pistol. The angle between the barrel and the handle was very large, a bit like the handle of a shotgun.
On the back of the hand was also an adjustable strap. It had elasticity and could also be adjusted for length.
After wearing it, the thumb naturally fell on the hammer position at the end of the barrel. It was a small platform with a joystick that was wider than the normal joystick of a VR controller. When the thumb pressed on it, the pad of the finger fit the curve of the joystick cap. It would not feel uncomfortable because the joystick cap was too small and used for a long time.
At the hammer position at the bottom left of the joystick, there was a special button that simulated the hammer and could be pulled. On the left side of the joystick were two clickable round buttons. The size was also larger than the buttons of a normal VR controller. It was similar to the size of the controller of the main console and was more comfortable to press.
The index finger naturally fell on the trigger position of the pistol. Unlike the other handles which only had a single trigger button, this handle was specially made with a ring guard like a pistol to prevent accidental touching and to protect the trigger button.
When the thumb was lowered, the space between the thumb and index finger naturally touched the handle. There was also a button at the position of the pistol's magazine button. The size was slightly smaller than the prototype button above and the feel was different.
