Super technology leader

#334 - First experience of the fantasy world

The immersion pods will definitely be sold on a large scale. Tang Chuan isn't like those misers who bury their silver ingots underground. Instead, he'll take them out and make full use of them.

After all, money is subject to inflation, and technology can be researched by others one day.

Like the framework technology of the Illusion World, if you want to quickly popularize this kind of thing around the world, it's impossible to keep it completely secret. You must open up some of the technology and, as a second-best option, use patents to protect commercial interests, allowing people all over the world to participate in the development.

But if large, national-level organizations get the technology and don't use it commercially, but secretly use it themselves, Navigator has no way to stop them.

Like the Murrikan side, after they get the technology, they will definitely use the Illusion framework technology to build their own Illusion space within their supercomputers.

Combining these technologies with the helmet's physical reverse-immersion technology, I believe that after a period of time, they will be able to use knock-off Illusion helmets.

Although they can't use it commercially due to patent restrictions, having their own Illusion space and knock-off immersion helmets is enough to get rid of Navigator's "time bomb."

At least, that's what they think.

The higher-ups in Murrika feel very uncomfortable thinking that their consciousness and secrets have to pass through Navigator's servers, so they will definitely create their own secret Illusion world.

In that case, instead of letting others research similar technologies and steal the market, it's better to squeeze out the maximum profit from the product. That's the best choice.

Of course, this is Chen Jing's strategy. Tang Chuan, as a technician, doesn't have this kind of thinking.

The specific time to start selling the immersion pods will depend on the specific situation in the coming period.

The exchange group came and went with great efficiency, settling everything in a day.

Moreover, the senior scientists in the exchange group are of a high level, and they can directly decide many things, so they don't need to have such long meetings when they return. They only need to make some specific arrangements.

On this day, Navigator Technology Company had a batch of people coming and a batch of people leaving. There were basically no major changes, but the outside world changed dramatically on this day.

In one day, nearly 100,000 Illusion helmets were sold.

Because all models were launched at the same time, the total sell-out time was still one second!

Those 100 professional-grade helmets worth 5 million were also gone in a flash.

However, thanks to the hot sales of space tourism tickets during this period, the professional version of the Illusion helmet, which costs only 5 million RMB and can't even compare to the cheapest space tourism ticket, seems just so-so.

Of course, the price doesn't matter. The content is the most important thing, and the Illusion helmets and space tourism tickets are not comparable.

In fact, if you really want to compare, most people would definitely say that Illusion helmets are much more affordable than space tourism tickets!

After all, 100,000 people own Illusion helmets, while only a few hundred people have traveled to space on orbital shuttles. There's simply no comparison in terms of quantity.

Even if you don't talk about the real experience, from the perspective of bystanders, the videos they see are most interesting from Illusion helmets.

If you want to talk about the real experience, then space tourism is definitely superior, after all, it's real space, flying hundreds of kilometers out of the Earth's surface. But if you lower the experience a bit, and if you don't have such a strong sense of vanity, Illusion helmets absolutely crush space tourism.

There aren't many things that can be used in the Illusion World right now. Distributing 100,000 helmets means that 100,000 users can only be considered "testers," but the limited things available are enough for them to play around with.

In the Illusion World, because "real" shopping requires the cooperation of a large number of companies, it hasn't been opened yet. Only Navigator's own Illusion flagship store has been opened, but the way to buy things in its store is the same as in other stores in the future.

It's equivalent to giving other stores a sample in advance, and also allowing users to experience the feeling of shopping in the Illusion World in advance.

So on the first day that all 100,000 helmets were distributed, the highest number of people in Navigator's Illusion flagship store at the same time reached 74,000.

That's right, at the same time, there were 74,000 people in the store.

The remaining 20,000+ people either played around in Navigator City and then went to play games, or came in and went straight to play games.

It seems that games are more fun.

Of course, the store is also fun.

Don't look at the flagship store from the outside, it's only that big, but when you walk in, it's much bigger inside, even bigger than the square next to it.

It's like the magic tent in Harry Potter, the outside is just an ordinary tent size, but the inside is a space the size of a villa.

However, the Navigator flagship store doesn't use magic, but Illusion!

There are fast-moving devices in the store, such as balance cars that will never fall, multi-person vehicles, elevators that go directly to any place, etc., so you don't have to worry about wasting time, and you don't have to worry about being "physically tired."

After all, when shopping in the Illusion World, the data setting is "Stamina MAX"!

Many male users who were husbands were shocked when they tried it.

"It's over, it's over, my wallet is over!"

And the husband who was lucky enough to buy two helmets and accompanied his wife in was already "finished."

Even if the data setting is "Stamina MAX", the "heart" is tired.

He originally wanted to play games, but was dragged over to shopping by his wife.

The clothing area of the flagship store has the most female users. Although Navigator only sells peripheral products, which are all cultural shirts with the company's product designs, and the styles are the most common, the ladies are still happy to try them on.

In their words, it's: "We're already here, let's experience it first. When other stores open in the future, we won't have to start practicing from scratch."

As for how to buy clothes that fit your real body in the Illusion, there are actually prompts when you walk into the clothing area. It will ask you to exit first, and then put the helmet on a table, slightly towards the edge of the table, so that the helmet can scan your whole body.

At this time, you need to take off your clothes.

Don't be nervous, it's not that kind of undressing, it's just that because you're wearing clothes, the model it scans and builds isn't accurate.

If you are scanned while wearing a cotton-padded jacket, then the "real appearance" of you trying on clothes is what you look like wearing a cotton-padded jacket, so you definitely won't be able to try on suitable clothes.

So you need to wear clothes that are as close to your body as possible. If you want to buy long pants + a jacket, you can scan a model wearing long underwear.

If you want to buy shorter clothes, you need shorts and a bra. Some shorter clothes still look better with body lines exposed.

Of course, if you don't mind buying shorts that are worn over long underwear, it doesn't matter, it's just for trying them on anyway.

If you're even bolder, then... you know.

Don't worry, Navigator will definitely keep customer information confidential. After all, some people's data already exists in beauty salons, hospitals, high-end clothing customization places, and the like.

However, that kind of extremely bold state can only appear in some fixed private places. You won't succeed if you want to appear in public places in the Illusion World.

After all, Navigator City in the Illusion World also has laws, and there are specific restrictions in specific places.

When scanning, users need to stand in a suitable position according to the helmet's prompts, and then slowly turn two circles to allow the helmet to build a three-dimensional model.

Storing this three-dimensional model, you can either use it as your body shape in the Illusion, or use it to try on clothes in the fitting room when buying clothes.

When you enter the fitting room, a pop-up window will appear asking you whether to switch to real appearance data. After you change to real appearance data, you can try on clothes boldly.

You don't even need to go out to choose clothes in the fitting room, and you don't need to repeatedly put them on and take them off. Next to you is a light screen displaying the types of clothes. After selecting the clothes, they can directly appear on your body.

You only need to take off and put on the clothes when you specifically want to know how to put them on and take them off.

After you are satisfied with the fitting and click to buy and confirm payment, the financial program bound during registration will automatically pay, and then you just wait for the delivery at home.

The delivered clothes are guaranteed to fit, and the upper body will definitely be the same as when you tried them on in the store. There will be no serious "gap" between the buyer's show and the seller's show, just like when you visit a physical store.

This kind of feeling of visiting a physical store without going out, and without getting tired, the women simply love it here.

There's just one thing, the helmet will automatically wake you up after a certain amount of time.

"It's time to get up and pee, otherwise you might pee in bed like a child."

Of course, this is their own understanding. The actual words are much more refined than this.
