The Fourth Calamity

"Epoch-making Invention - Holographic Game Comes Out"

"Can Virtual Reality Technology Really Simulate Reality?" "

"The Company Behind the Technological Revolution - The New Rising Internet Myth"

"A 10-Year-Old Genius?Or a true enabler of virtual reality? "

"The Ark and Sindora"

Since the news of the completion of the development of the virtual reality game was spread on the Internet, the entire Internet has fallen into a sea of ​​carnival.

Of course, there must have been doubters at the beginning. After all, Ark Technology is a newly registered technology company, and so far no products have been released. Just such a new company suddenly said that it invented the holographic game, which is like saying that a beggar is actually a billionaire. Bullshit like a millionaire.

But then there were good people on the Internet who looked up the people in charge and the core R&D team behind Ark Company, and things took a turning point.

The current CEO of Ark Company turned out to be Zhongbin Jiancun, the former general manager of the technology department of Syndora Company.Look at the virtual reality technology announced on the official website, isn't the young genius Hiroki Sawada who was exposed some time ago?

Genius news is always easy to attract people's attention, and many media have put their attention on it. Ark Company also took the opportunity to release more news about the capture of virtual reality technology. After the endorsement of some authoritative knowledge institutions, these The media is completely crazy!

At the same time, the scientific research, business, and game circles were flooded by the news of Ark Company and Hiroki, and then Ark Company’s overwhelming publicity, which was soon called by the media as the new leading company that will succeed Sindora. .

And today is the day of Ark's product exhibition.

Whether it is a dragon soaring in the sky or just a clown to please the public, it all depends on today.All reporters know that no matter what the result is, it will be an absolute hot spot for a while.

Countless media had already arrived outside the venue, but only a few top TV stations and reporters received invitation letters, and most of the reporters and paparazzi of small TV stations were turned away.

But they are also unwilling to leave, even if they can't get in and take photos outside, they may be on the cover. After all, the guests who came today almost include the world's Internet and game-related giants.

"Look, the general manager of O Heaven is also here."

"God, that is the boss of the Ston Chaebol, a Fortune 500 company. I didn't expect him to come too."

"The investment genius nicknamed the Hand of God and his wife are here, hurry up, take a picture!"

It was obviously just a commercial occasion, but it was set off by the endless stream of flashing lights, making it look like an international red carpet scene.The reporters were not stingy with the tape in their hands. Almost contentedly, after they took a photo that they thought could win the front page, more bosses would come behind them, and many media people suddenly fell into happiness troubles.

The venue was lively and colorful, but as soon as you entered the exhibition site, the atmosphere became much quieter. Of course, the bosses would not make a fuss like the reporters outside. At most, they would pick up the drinks handed by the waiter and look at them reservedly and sharply. The opponents at the scene, or took the initiative to greet other people, show their faces, and those who didn't know thought it was some high-end reception.

"Alice sauce, eat less cake and more staple food, so girls will get fat~"

"It's so noisy, I don't want to listen to Lin Taro!"

However, an unusual sound is out of tune with this high-end atmosphere.

A little girl at the dining table has already occupied the cakes prepared by the waiters, and a man in a black coat with a parted head in the middle keeps persuading her. It looks like a combination of a wayward little girl and a doting daughter.

"Mr. Mori, I seem to have seen Dazai over there." Nakahara was not very used to this kind of occasion, not to mention his anti-Dazai radar was activated when he entered the arena, "Do you need me..."

"Calm down, Nakaya-kun." Mori Ogai's silly father's face was restrained as soon as he turned around, and a cold light was revealed in his devilish eyes, "Look around, if you do something here, even Even us Hong Kong gangsters can't eat and walk around."

Zhong Yuanzhong also pressed the brim of his hat: "Sorry, I was reckless."

However, Zhongyuan Zhong also let Dazai go, but he didn't expect that this hateful mackerel didn't intend to let him go at all.

"Hey, isn't this a slug? I thought I was reading it wrong." A certain bandage discarded device was not afraid of death and ran around Hong Kong gangsters, "I didn't expect that even Mr. Mori was invited, what a wicked person , candle sauce~”

"Feng Zhu? What's none of his business?" Zhong Yuan Zhong also asked subconsciously, but he regretted it as soon as he asked.

Sure enough, in the next second, Osamu Dazai spread his hand and taunted him without hesitation: "As expected of a little dwarf without a brain, he didn't check the list of controlling shareholders behind the company even when he came here."

"Okay, Dazai." Of course Mori Ogai wanted to defend his cadres, "The one who sent us this invitation letter is Feng Zhu, not only that, he also sent invitations to the other two."

Hearing that Zhongyuan Zhong also looked around, and sure enough, he found other familiar figures.

The famous detective from the Armed Detective Agency also occupied another dessert table and was enjoying dessert. Other members of the detective agency surrounded him helplessly, while the president known as the Silver Wolf was going to meet with the dignitaries. circle of people saying hello.

On the other side were people from the Special Agents Section who sneaked into the guest group in a low-key manner.

Including Hong Kong and black, the three major forces in Yokohama are all complete.

"What exactly does he want to do?" Zhongyuan Zhong also couldn't figure it out. He had obviously spent a lot of time escaping from Yokohama, so why did he invite them over now.

"Don't think about it too complicated," Osamu Dazai raised his eyebrows, "Maybe it's just a child who is not convinced, and now he just decides to get back on the stage."

"Really..." With Mori Ogai's suspicious nature, he obviously wouldn't believe that things were that simple.

But in fact, Feng Zhu just thought it would be fun.

At this moment, Feng Zhu and Hong Shu are preparing for the backstage of the exhibition. The main reason is that Hong Shu and his father Tadabin Kenmura will go on stage to explain the products. Now the child is already stiff.

Feng Zhu didn't mind watching the excitement and sighed with emotion: "A lot of people came outside, did we invite so many people?"

"These are future business partners, and it is impossible to refuse their admission request." Jiancun Zhongbin said helplessly.

That's right, Hiroki's father is currently the CEO of Ark Company. The main reason is that it is difficult for Feng Zhu to find talents with strong ability and no dissatisfaction. At this time, Hiroki recommended Jiancun, which can be regarded as solving a major problem in starting a company. .

"However, many companies have nothing to do with games at all, so why are they here?" Feng Zhu couldn't figure it out.

Jiancun Zhongbin paused for a moment, with a gloomy expression on his face: "It is estimated that these people will not believe that this technology is only used in games."

To be honest, when he read the technical information report, he was stunned when he learned that the two of them were only planning to use such powerful technology for games.

If you insist on a metaphor, it is probably like using a dragon knife to repair an apple.

Of course, Feng Zhu will not change his mind because of anyone's opinion, so Jiancun can only complain silently in his heart, are they still two children?

"Our product, product, uh..." Hiroki suddenly got stuck in the middle of reciting.

Only then did the two stop communicating, seeing that Hiroki was so nervous that he was about to bite his tongue, they quickly comforted him.

Feng Zhu: "It's okay, it's okay, isn't it just to go out and talk about our products? Look, there aren't many people down here."

"...Do you think I'm blind?" Hiroki wanted to cry but felt aggrieved, "I just heard you say that many people came, so why did I go up and talk about it? It's obvious that we invented it together. "

"Because my identity is temporarily inconvenient to appear in the sight of too many people." Feng Zhu shrugged, and slapped Hongshu on the shoulder, "Get nervous and fly away! Okay, don't be nervous now, don't I'm too worried, just treat the people below as turnips and vegetables."

Hiroki showed a dumbfounding expression: "How can it be so simple, my brain feels blank now, why can't I not go up and talk about it? qwq Dad, you can explain it together with me!"

"But what everyone wants to ask is the real founder of virtual reality technology." Tadabin Kenmura bent down and stroked Hiroki's hair, "Don't be afraid, everyone has a first time, I remember the first time I stood When I was on stage, I bumped my head into the microphone nervously, and on the way back, I fell and tripped with my left foot and right foot. Look, am I alive now?"

"Pfft," Hiroki couldn't help chuckling, the tension on his face dissipated a lot, "Well, I'll live well on stage."

"come on."

The scene of the exhibition went dark, and the stage was lit with dazzling light beams. Zhongbin Jiancun walked onto the stage in the eyes of everyone, and started tonight's main show.

"It's a great honor to meet you at the new product launch meeting tonight. To be honest, I thought our meeting again was at the product exhibition of Syndora Company, but who would have thought that I would have jumped ship to another commercial boat, This is probably the cruelty of business." Zhongbin Jiancun started with humorous words, which successfully aroused laughter from the audience, and as the atmosphere gradually became more fascinating, Jiancun also quickly talked about the theme of this time.

"Don't hang on to everyone, I know that what everyone wants to see must not be my uncle standing on the stage talking about virtual technology that even I don't understand, then we have to invite our genius, one of the designers of the cocoon, to succeed The genius who cracked the virtual reality technology——Hiroki Sawada!"

The applause immediately became enthusiastic, and a small group of people were keenly aware of his words, "one of them", that is to say, there are other designers?

But soon their doubts were temporarily put aside, and under the bright spotlight, Hiroki walked up to the podium step by step with stiff steps.

"N-Good evening." Hiroki Sawada stumbled at the beginning, facing everyone's enthusiastic gazes, his nervous mind went blank.

But at this moment, countless blue light screens suddenly projected in the void, and this sci-fi scene happened in front of them, everyone's attention was immediately distracted, and they couldn't help but exclaim.

One of the light screens was automatically projected from the podium in front of Hongshu. Seeing the familiar data on the screen, Hongshu subconsciously glanced at the backstage, where Feng Zhu was standing there smiling at him.

Somehow, Hiroki's mood immediately calmed down, and he also showed a smile. With a swipe in the void, the entire light screen split into two pieces from the middle, and everyone's attention was once again focused on Hiroki: "This time our company The product launched is 'Cocoon', as everyone expected, the special game cabin named 'Cocoon' applies full stealth technology and virtual reality technology, it is a real holographic game."

Then Hiroki roughly explained the principle of the game cabin. With the various icons of Noah’s Ark on the light screen, even people without the corresponding foundation can understand it. From time to time, there were surprised discussions and applause from the crowd.

Feng Zhu stood next to the curtain at the edge of the stage, which just blocked his figure and could see the people in the audience. He keenly found the people he had invited, such as the Armed Detective Agency in Yokohama, Hong Kong Black, and the Supernatural Secret Service Division. , and of course Conan, Oda Saku and the children are also below.

To be honest, people from different maps gathered in the same scene, this feeling is quite amazing.

Feng Zhu only took a few glances, and then his attention returned to Hongshu. When Hongshu talked about his field of expertise, he had gradually regained his confidence as a genius scientist on stage. After the final introduction ended, the audience There was loud applause.

The little brats almost slapped their palms red: "Brother Hongshu is amazing!"

Odasaku also looked at the shining child on the stage with some emotion. Although Hiroki was not strictly speaking his own child, he almost lived and ate at home, and Odasaku had long regarded him as a family member.

Then there was the reporter questioning session.

The lucky one who was clicked first was TV TOKYO.

The reporter raised the point that the audience was most concerned about: "Will people feel tired in the state of full stealth, or can it be done in the state of sleep?"

"Well, don't worry about this, it won't have any impact on the real body when playing the game, and it can even replace sleep, because the human body actually enters a deep sleep state under the special electromagnetic waves, but can it be completely replaced? The jury is still out on sleep, but in the short-term data, there is no difference in mental state between people who game in their dreams and those who just sleep."

Hiroki tried to take a cautious approach.

However, the information he revealed was enough to shock everyone present.

After all, if it is true, this is incredible!

Someone once made data that people spend at least one-third of their life sleeping. For example, if a person can live to be 100 years old, in fact, he is only conscious for half of his time, that is, he is only in his 60s.

But if this machine can really replace sleep, then the actual use time of humans will directly double!

Many people present already had a faint premonition.

Here, it is not just a simple holographic game display scene.

After a while of discussion, there was endless silence. Hiroki was a little embarrassed, thinking that he was cold because of his lack of ability.

But fortunately, another reporter stood up to ask questions, alleviating Hiroki's embarrassment: "May I ask if this virtual technology has been perfected, and how much deviation does it have from reality? Can you remember the content?"

Hiroki vaguely felt that this question had nothing to do with the game. After all, why did he study in the game, but he still had to answer carefully: "Yes, we have achieved a breakthrough in the simulation technology of the five senses. How do you feel in reality and the game? It’s almost the same, of course, this sense can also be adjusted.”

This time, the audience gasped for air one after another.

Most people are also aware of the true meaning of virtual technology.

game?Do not make jokes.

If it is really as the boy said, this is the second world and second life in the real sense!

Jiancun Zhongbin’s mobile phone in the background is about to explode, and the product display has not yet started. The big guys have communicated in advance that he wants various investments or game agency rights, technology sharing, etc., and he is almost rushing to give money. I'm afraid that Jiancun will not accept it.

They are not even game-related companies, and most of them are not here to invest in games. What they really want is the admission ticket to the second world!

Mori Ogai was a little amused to hear the eager discussion of the people around him. Those bosses who had just entered the market and were still reserved at the moment were no different from the uncles and aunts who encountered discounts. Get tech.

Mori Ogai, who came here, can say that they are all too naive!

Thought this was a newly established company, thought it was only a child who mastered this technology, so let your guard down?

Ha ha!

When Mori Ogai thought of Feng Zhu standing behind this company and the artificial intelligence in his hands, his wallet hurt a little.

"But is this his purpose?" Mori Ogai thought thoughtfully, sure enough, how could the person who came out of Yokohama just make a game.

Like him, Tian Tian of the Supernatural Secret Service Division suddenly realized that it turned out that the artificial intelligence that was revealed when he left Yokohama was just the beginning, and now the virtual reality is the real goal of that person hidden under the game!

This is also a deadly trap wrapped in sugar, but the other party throws a bait that no one can refuse.

There is no one who does not desire to prolong life, no disabled person does not desire to stand up again, no blind person does not desire to see the world again.

This is all possible with virtual reality technology.

And after everyone got used to the second world, the imprint of Feng Zhu had penetrated into this world and could not be removed.

At that time, no one will be able to shake his position as the uncrowned king.

Smart people who are accustomed to conspiracy theories think deeper and deeper, and they are terrified when they think carefully.

Feng Zhu had no idea how his desire to develop games to make money had been misinterpreted. He took advantage of everyone's attention to be attracted by Hiroki on the stage, and went down to look for Odasaku and the others. Unfortunately, the crowd was too crowded Instead, Feng Zhu came to Hong Kong and Hei's territory instead.

Facing Mori Ogai's silent gaze, Feng Zhu had no choice but to bite the bullet and say hello: "Yo, long time no see Mr. Mori, how is Hong Kong Hei recently?"

"Thanks to you, everything is fine."

Mori Ogai was still immersed in the conspiracy theory just now, the gaze he was looking at Feng Zhu was completely looking at a scheming old fox who was not inferior to him, and even suspected that all the previous careless behavior of the other party was for him to watch.

Being not good at business is to give them benefits on purpose, successfully let them eat the cake, and pull them on a thief boat to protect their own safety.Those actions that look like sand sculptures are actually deliberately pretending to be crazy to observe their reactions.

Think about it, even that Dazai was abducted by him, the other party can't be a simple person.

Feng Zhu didn't notice the change in the way Mori Ogai looked at him, and after greeting Kazuka, he said with the mentality of sharing good things with friends: "How is it? Holographic games are cool enough, maybe I can Restore those Gundams in the virtual world, and then invite you to drive Gundams!"

Zhong Yuanzhong was also taken aback, his expression softened a bit: "Ah."

"Gundam, what kind of car is it?" Mori Ogai quietly asked for information.

"It's an armed mecha, equivalent to a robot a few meters high. It can adapt to combat in various environments including the universe. It is an indispensable strategic weapon on the battlefield." After a brief introduction, Feng Zhu said with emotion , "It's a pity that this kind of weapon can't be released in reality, otherwise it will cause chaos. It's better to do it in the game. Anyway, the game won't affect reality."

"Hey, speaking of it this way, it's best to fight all wars in the game in the future. There won't be so many wars in reality. This is the real world peace... Well, although it's impossible."

Feng Zhu said that he was going to be amused by his own imagination. It is obviously impossible to replace war with games. After all, it is impossible for the management of the game to cheat at will.

However, the speaker has no intention and the listener has the heart.

Mori Ogai's eyes suddenly changed, and Chief Taneda and Fukuzawa Yukichi who had just rushed over after receiving the news of Feng Zhu's appearance also happened to hear his words.

In the ears of people with complicated positions like them, there are never any jokes, and all the sincerity and truth are usually concealed in the most inconspicuous sentence.

For example, now, they seem to have briefly glimpsed the deeper secrets hidden under the game.

Could it be that this person's ambition turned out to be something so naive as to be ridiculous?

The bosses in Yokohama have mixed emotions, but it is inevitable that they will have an emotion similar to respect and admiration.

None of the Yokohama bosses present liked war, otherwise they would not have accepted Mr. Natsume's idea of ​​three moments.

Some of them may not be good people, some are used to the darkness, and some have changed their minds.But without exception, they are all people with firm beliefs who have gone through the darkness and still look for the light.

It is precisely because we have experienced war and darkness that we know the value of peace and are willing to pay for it.

Feng Zhu's unintentional words more or less hit the soft spot in their hearts.

Suddenly it was cold.

Feng Zhu looked bewildered, not knowing why the scene fell into silence after he finished speaking.Just as he was about to say something to save the silence, the voice on the stage suddenly became louder.

"Okay, friends, seeing is better than hearing a hundred times. No matter how we talk about it, it is better to demonstrate it in person. How about this, we will draw a few lucky ones to try the performance of 'cocoon' on the spot!"

"Now, please draw lots in order under the guidance of the staff. This time we will draw 20 people to play the game."

After everyone present got the lottery, the host continued: "Okay, now, please come on stage with an even number between 40 and 80."

Mori Ogai spread out the note in his hand, it happened to be 40

Nakaya 54, Akutagawa Ryunosuke 58

Osamu Dazai is 44, and someone from the Armed Detective Agency and the Supernatural Secret Service seems to have drawn an even number.

Of course there are Oda Saku and the children, but they are internal tickets...

When everyone came to the stage and lined up to enter the 'cocoon' one by one, Feng Zhu took a look at the line and couldn't help but whistle.

To get these people together... He felt that this game would definitely be super interesting!
