Chapter 273 Virtual Community

This time, in addition to the people who participated in the test and journalists, there were many people from all parties gathered here for other purposes. Wang Anshi not only didn’t care about this at all, but also made it easy to speak. As long as it did not affect the game test, they would not mind others staying in the Baodao Resort. Anyway, this is a disguised publicity!

Now, the entire villa has been put on the floor as long as it is indoors. Don’t worry, it’s not bad. The bunks are getting fewer and fewer day by day as time goes by. As for the price of bunks, naturally it is rising day by day under the fierce competition. According to Wang Anshi’s estimate, those latecomers who are late may have to live in open-air tents.

But even so, more and more people stayed in the villa at a high price. Some of them even started working as a scalper, a rich and prosperous job, which made Wang Anshi, who knew the news, admired the business of the Chinese people. However, the original chaotic order quickly calmed down with the intervention of the relevant departments within a few days.

Originally, Wang Anshi thought that his company had made such a big noise, which would probably attract the attention of relevant departments, and he was even prepared to meet the worst results. But strangely, this closed test was not only strongly paid attention from domestic and even foreign media, but the preparations were always smooth and there was no obstacle at all.

With the so-called closed game conference, which has actually been completely open, Wang Anshi, who is a company CEO, stood on the podium where the press conference was held in the open air because of the crowd, and read out the requirements for participating in the test with a smile:

"Players who participate in the test are advised to pay attention. Remember the following requirements for this technical closed test that I read on behalf of "Piaotian Wenxue Network Interactive Entertainment Co., Ltd." to facilitate better game testing!"

"Because of the requirements of the head office, there is no information about the "Taoyuan" game in this closed beta. Our company is only responsible for operations and services. So, I'm sorry, we cannot provide all my information in the game, and we can only rely on everyone to explore it ourselves. Of course, if each player has any good suggestions, you can leave us a message on the official website. I believe that as long as it is a reasonable request, it will be adopted by the head office."

"As for the headquarters only provides 1ooo game equipment this time, I can only apologize to the majority of players here. I believe that there will be more game quotas. After the technical closed test, more game equipment will be available in the next test. Players who have not participated this time are welcome to sign up for participation!

With Wang Anshi's statement, at the scene where people were full of heads, a large number of media reporters and idle people immediately raised their spears, short cannons, recorders, cameras and other bombardments, "Click! Click! Click!", recording the precious information just revealed from Wang Anshi's mouth.

Wang Anshi was spitting out various statements, and the whole country system has begun to conduct a comprehensive investigation around the sudden emergence of "Piaotian Wenyi Interactive Entertainment Co., Ltd.". After all, the virtual reality technology can play a significant role in the military field, but the company that suddenly emerged skipped military and directly used this technology for civilian use, which made the relevant leadership personnel of the country very depressed.

Not that no one has doubted what this company will do. It is a good intention, but the problem is that if such virtual reality technology was not too late to hide it, how could it be so openly released to the public? Besides, even if it is a bait, the price is too high.

As for why the country is so familiar with the game "Taoyuan", it is actually very simple to say. When Wang Anshi arranged for the first fifty major players in the game industry to try it out, some personnel from the national security department had already mixed in. Although most of the outside world were still skeptical about the so-called virtual reality technology at that time, this did not prevent the relevant departments from conducting investigations.

When Wang Anshi's stinky and long words ended, the owners of the long spears and short cannons rushed forward with no chance, and could not hold the "weapon" in their hands into the mouth of the person on the stage. If the owner of this resort had not been foresighted and added a lot of security personnel, maintaining order in the venue would be a huge problem.

Fortunately, the country had already sent relevant personnel to lurk in the villa, and with some private operations, so it finally barely maintained the basic order of the hot scene. The uncrowned kings raised their hands, and some even scheming there in order to get the right to ask questions. Wang Anshi was so depressed that he thought: "Please, if you are a beautiful girl, it's fine. You, a big man, just make a fool of yourself, can still scare people in broad daylight."

Unlike reporters who were actively asking questions, all the players who were preparing to participate in this technical closed beta were not allowed to end the conference immediately, so that they could experience what the legendary virtual reality technology felt as soon as possible. Unfortunately, this idea can only be thought about.

After finally dealing with the reporters' words, Wang Anshi, who was somewhat embarrassed by various strange problems, quickly stated that the press conference was over and announced the news that the technical blockade of "Taoyuan" was officially begun. Then, under the cover of security guards, he ran away with his head at the risk of "rain of bullets".

Although these journalists really want to go to the villa where the closed-end test is interviewed on site, unfortunately, the precautions provided by "Piaotian Wenyi Interactive Entertainment Co., Ltd." have already explained that due to technical reasons, this test must not be disturbed to avoid unnecessary trouble. In addition, the private instructions from relevant state departments, although the villa's periphery is still crowded, the core of the game for players is preparing for the start of the closed-end test in an orderly manner.

With the final preparatory conclusion, the players who had already brought their forehead rings to lie flat on the bed or floor were quietly waiting for the arrival of that magical moment. With the prompt sound of "Five, Four, Three, Two, One, Enter", these thousand mixed players from domestic and foreign players, security personnel from relevant departments, scientific researchers and even spies from other countries, felt that their consciousness was blurred, and when they woke up, they found that they were already in a different place.

At this time, Liu Xiaoyu and his family were pretending to be ignorant like other players, and then pretended not to know each other. After communicating for a while, they got together. In other words, the players who entered the game this time, in addition to those with ulterior motives, were more ordinary players. Some of these players were "retail investors" and some were organized professional players such as studios.

Unlike those RMB players or "retail investors", these professional players understand more clearly how much help the team's strength will bring to the early stage of the exhibition in a new game. Therefore, it is actually normal for Liu Xiaoyu and his family to gather together to form a temporary team.

Although the large or small studios that have won the quota among the players basically have arranged at least one or two, and groups of more than a dozen people will enter "Taoyuan" at the same time, the official has long stated that the locations for the game login are arranged randomly, and there is no guarantee that they will meet their team or companions in the studio.

So it became inevitable to form a temporary team. When most players were still shocked by the completely real environment in front of them and their new body, the fifty players who were invited by Wang Anshi to participate in the virtual reality experience opened their energy screen early after adapting to their new bodies.

Although these people only experienced virtual reality technology and did not really get involved in the game "Taoyuan", no matter how they said that they were better than those who were completely novice in terms of operation and acceptance. As for that energy screen, it was one of the equipment arranged by the Intelligent Brain for the newcomers of this game "Taoyuan".

If there is output in this consciousness transmission, there will inevitably be input. Therefore, the cultivated bodies also have forehead rings with consciousness receiving function on their heads. These forehead rings are set with the equipment that the player's body can do, that is, the body targeted by a forehead ring bound to the player's genes and spiritual marks is fixed, so there is no need to worry about impersonation or vests.

In addition to the function of conscious reception, the forehead ring on the new body also has some auxiliary functions, such as projecting the energy screen mentioned above. In addition to allowing players to query game-related information, this energy screen can also display the function of friend videos. In addition to the ability to transmit voice in the quota ring, it can form a function similar to a video phone.

Although Liu Xiaoyu was not the original intention of creating this game this time to make money, it does not mean that he would give up the idea of ​​making money through games. As for how to make money, the online game operators on the market who are completely free of charge but actually want to empty the players' pockets are already quite mature, not to mention that "Taoyuan" has the unique virtual reality technology.

In addition to this forehead ring, the players also have a set of novice suits, but the material of this set really makes the players speechless. In their opinion, this novice suit must be made with a set of cloth clothes no matter how it is. But the reality is cruel. In addition to the style of this novice suit, it is blocked where it should be blocked. In addition to the risk of leaving, the materials with primitive styles such as bark, leaves and grass made everyone scold the operation company for being stingy.

Before the game was officially launched, Liu Xiaoyu scattered the thousand bodies cultivated this time around the center of the only old wooden house living on the island. It divided twenty areas in advance within a radius of five kilometers. So when the players' consciousness turned to the new body, there were no more or no less than fifty people in each area.

Although these thousand players have received official training before entering the game, the similarity is still completely different from the experience I experienced personally, otherwise so many players would not have shown various abnormal states. Is this game definitely necessary to play, but the problem is that "Taoyuan" is very unique, and there is no restriction on how players can play it from beginning to end.

However, the official also made local settings and relevant rules based on the player's opinions collected in advance and the requirements of relevant departments. Considering that the game will involve adventure elements, the "neural fine-tuning function" has been turned on during the closed test, so that players can independently adjust the sensitivity of the bearable pain nerves.

However, according to the real environment requirements of the virtual reality, the player's traumatized body will still cause real damage in the game, such as a broken leg. Although the player cannot feel pain, it will still cause the character to be unable to walk. The loss of blood will naturally lead to corresponding adverse states.

Because they are on Earth, the time of the game "Taoyuan" is exactly the same as that of reality. The official also explained this situation during this closed beta. In order to prevent players from being addicted to the game, relevant restrictions were set, and each player's online time limit is eight hours every 24 hours.

As for the age of players, the official also set a limit on the game being allowed to move to the game over 18 years old and under 60 years old. However, after a day of testing, these thousand players not only praised the virtual reality technology, but also did not have a high evaluation of the game "Taoyuan".

After the day's closed beta, the busiest ones on the surface were those journalists and interviewees, but in private, there was still undercurrents. I wonder how many eyes were staring at this game that had already produced a large amount of human technology, thinking about how to find the core information.

Although the game itself does not limit how players play, the characters in this game are no different from the real world. They not only eat, drink, defecate, but also get cold and hot. Therefore, under the pressure of the general environment, these players have to start a primitive social lifestyle in order to solve the most basic survival problems.

Fortunately, the climate on Taoyuan Island is very pleasant, so there is no need to worry about the problem of cold wearing novice outfits. But as the saying goes, food is the most important thing for people. Food and drink are the top priority. So, the teams in groups of three or five, or in the same studio or temporary set up began to explore the surrounding environment.

After several consecutive days of closed-off tests, through the ubiquitous interviews by reporters, the true face of this "Taoyuan" game has gradually appeared in front of humans. According to Liu Xiaoyu's original plan, he wanted to make this game similar to survival in the wild. However, after a day of closed-off test, the opinions and suggestions from players rushed to Wang Anshi's head and sweated heavily and had to contact the boss behind the divine.

After stating and classification of the intelligent brain and removing those irrelevant parts, Liu Xiaoyu saw a well-organized related report. In the report, players put forward various suggestions and requirements, such as adding game elements of gunfighting similar to CSS, etc. After reading the complete report, there was a suggestion that attracted his attention.

Virtual community, the term is no longer an emerging thing for today's networms. However, as for the current network technology on the earth, the so-called virtual community is only limited to a very small range. However, this suggestion says that the virtual reality technology of the "Taoyuan" game can completely break this limitation.

Because "Taoyuan" is an absolutely real environment, players can do anything in reality, and they can also ignore the region and distance of the virtual environment of "Taoyuan" and make the entire world a truly global village. Communication within the entire civilization will be realized through this convenience.

This suggestion made Liu Xiaoyu ponder for a long time. He had no plans to do things, and basically remembered that it was one after another. The reason why such a game came out was only because it could relieve the loneliness of his family.

Although the Intelligent Brain later said that the bioelectricity emitted by the human body can be used as an energy source, Liu Xiaoyu, who is used to being a hand-off manager, did not have any intuitive understanding. Although he knew that "Taoyuan" was not a game, the outside world did not know this fact after all, otherwise there would not be so many suggestions and opinions.

After thinking about it, he finally gave the suggestion of establishing a virtual community to the intelligent brain to analyze and see if there is any prospect of development. In fact, he also knew that no matter how big this Taoyuan Island is, it is limited. There are 1,000,000 or even 100,000 people coming up, but it cannot solve the fact that his relatives are lonely.

After all, for them, strangers are far less close to each other than relatives and friends. Besides, although the ability of the intelligent brain can also hide this island like the Penglai Island to avoid the possibility of being revealed, if you do this, the various resources and energy consumed will be astronomical, which will definitely be less than worth the loss.

After analysis by the main brain, this suggestion to build a virtual community is not only feasible, but also better in the overall situation than the "Taoyuan" game created by Liu Xiaoyu on the whim. The specific implementation method of the Intelligent Brain also said, and it can be completely set by referring to the movie "The Matrix".

As for Taoyuan Island, it will not be abandoned because of the establishment of a virtual community. After all, there are already a thousand shells that have been cultivated before. If you don’t need it, you can only go back and decompose it. But that would be a pity. So Liu Xiaoyu finally decided to capture both hands and build the virtual community, but the ready-made resources on Taoyuan Island must also be utilized.
