Chapter 715: Chapter 709: Several PartsNôv(el)B\\jnn

“This new game will consist of two parts, the first part is called Second Life. As the name suggests, Second Life is where you will get an option for a second life, you can enjoy the life of a tycoon, doctor, lawyer, celebrity and so on, and there will be a massive amount of NPCs for you to interact with in the game. The number of NPCs has reached the unprecedented number of billions.”

“Let me share a little secret here, actually, I really want to play this game, but I feel like I might not be very good at it, so I decided to let everyone play it. And about the NPCs in the game, I can straightforwardly tell you that the freedom in the game is something you can’t even imagine, and all the NPCs are handled by an AI similar to the Eve Morrison system, you wouldn’t even notice that they are just NPCs.”

“The second part is an interstellar war game, as long as you develop well, you can control the spaceship inside. I believe many players are familiar with the game WY by Virtual World Corporation, the graphics are realistic, right? Many people even shoot movies in it, but I can tell you this time, such realistic scenes will make you truly immersive, do you want to experience a sense like The Matrix? Then play this game.”

“Alright, any questions now?” Finn Lewis finished speaking with a gleaming smile before speaking up.

The reporters immediately raised their hands. Finn quickly called on a female reporter, but the next move by Starfall Group caught everyone’s attention as no one handed her a microphone, leaving the reporter a bit unsure of what to do next.

“Ah, I forgot to tell you, our press conference hall doesn’t need things like microphones, you can just speak directly, the intelligent sound collection system in the press conference hall will automatically collect and amplify your voice, You can just speak directly.” Finn added with a smile.

The female reporter was taken aback for a moment but still started asking: “I would like to ask Mr. Lewis” as soon as she opened her mouth, just as Finn said, her voice immediately filled the entire hall without any echoes.

“I would like to ask Mr. Lewis, I think I understand what you just talked about, and I believe many gamers have understood it, but what I want to know is, the game you developed should be some kind of wearing device game, so how much does this wearing device cost? And how should this game connect to the Internet? Using a cable or wifi?” The female reporter finished asking her question swiftly, looking a bit surprised on the inside.

“Awesome, it’s explosive cool!” Many online viewers watching the live broadcast instantly went crazy at the sight of this amazing feature at the press conference. This doesn’t even need a microphone! How cool is that!

“No wonder it’s Virtual World Corporation, I guess this place is the most advanced office building in the world.”

Online, with Finn Lewis still not answering, the focus is all here. Finn, however, was also surprised, this reporter seemed to be an ace reporter, these two questions directly hit the point.

Finn Lewis smiled and said, “To answer your first question, I can’t disclose the cost of this device, but in order to make it accessible to all players, I’ve priced it very low, at 300 yuan per set. The prices in the Alliance Countries and the North Federation are just based on the exchange rate, plus a little tax, I really love this game, even if I lose a bit of money for it, I am okay with it.”

“Wow!” The entire hall exploded at the mention of the price of 300. Everyone was stunned. It wasn’t as high as they expected but frighteningly low. Is it really okay to be this arbitrary?

To emphasize, the price Finn quoted stunned everyone. This is practically a giveaway! 300 yuan, even any ordinary person could afford this price. Even if in the North Federation it’s a bit more expensive, it’s still just a few dozen Federal coins, less than 100 Federal coins. This is practically a giveaway.

If this device is as amazing as Finn says, then the price is really a giveaway. Nowadays, a handheld game console costs hundreds or even thousands and now this amazing product is only a few hundred yuan?

Even the reporter who asked the questions was speechless, “Next one, let’s appreciate the big appraisal master.” Finn pointed to the next reporter very simply.

“Mr. Lewis, I would like to know, according to you, such a fully holographic simulation game, just like The Matrix, so how is your company going to prevent an event like The Matrix? After all, if what Mr. Lewis said is indeed miraculous, the player unknowingly enters a game, then how could he ever get out of that world.”” The second reporter quickly asked his question.

“Thanks for the interesting question from this reporter friend. I can explain here, first, our company’s product seems like AI to most people, but it’s actually just a pseudo-AI based on a fuzzy algorithm. In a way, it’s no different from our regular programs, it’s just that its fuzzy algorithm is more advanced, and it’s still a long way from being true AI, so there’s no need for you to worry.”

“Second, such a thing is attached to everyone’s ID card, and every piece has its own serial number and code. Once it’s bound to a person’s mental frequency, it cannot be used by anyone else. And our technology can make us do it, to ensure whether a person’s mental status is normal when he enters the game world, there is no need to doubt about this.”

“Oh, right, here I want to especially mention or kind of spoil ahead, the Flame Nation office has already made further corrections and improvements on the bill stating that virtual properties also belong to private properties from the previous time. For example, when many people use the Eve Morrison system, the Eve Morrison system has a backup file, and this backup file will have a storage space, now most people store it on their phones or other computers, and this situation will change dramatically in a week.”
