This is a dark room.
There is only one window in the room open, and a cold breeze blows in from outside, making the room not too stuffy.
In the center, a very old television was playing. The model is an old, boxy one that could be put in a museum, and the color is even scarier. Today’s televisions already feature holographically projected three-dimensional images.
In front of the ancient television is a single-sized nylon bed.
This convenient folding nylon bed has not been eliminated until now.
A young man sat quietly in the bed and watched the TV.
The boy looked very young, probably less than twenty years old.
Twenty-two years old is his real age.
But the divine light in his eyes was so sharp, as intimidating as two sharp swords.
What was playing on the TV was a commercial that lasted several minutes.
A whole new experience!
Can you imagine a game that brings you another kind of life
As the narration continued, the TV screen flashed quickly, showing green mountains, green water and blue sky.
A brand new game─real world (realorld). It already has more than 100 million players within a week of its launch. And the number of players is rising like a rocket!
In the game, it is almost the same as in daily life!
Scenes from a movie appeared on the TV one after another, as if they were communicating and chatting on the TV like real people, but the boy knew very well that these were not images specially made for advertisements. What this game achieves is indeed a picture that is no different from the real world. Thinking of this, the young man clenched his fists, his eyes filled with an emotion called unwillingness.
As a game, combat is inevitable! The voice of the narrator became excited: The battles in the game are real-time battles, making you feel like you have returned to ancient battles and feel the trembling and exciting tension!
The screen jumped, and several men were seen shouting, and in front of them was a giant lizard! One of the men was holding a round shield. The holy light emitted from the shield then spread outwards. A huge golden light shield enveloped everyone. The corrosive attacks spitted out by the lizard were all blocked by the light shield. .
When another man saw this, he grasped a sword as high as a man with both hands and rushed forward with a roar, his body exuding bursts of bloody brilliance!
The boy sitting in front of the TV knew that this was a profession known as a berserker.
The people on the TV worked together and finally defeated the monster, then smiled brightly.
The real world uses the latest technology, using brain waves to directly enter the game! Completely escape the manual era.
The screen jumps to a helmet made with a high sense of technology, rotating 360 degrees.
The real world gives you another kind of life! Waiting for your challenge!
This advertisement is not short, but it gives people a feeling of being overwhelmed.
The young man turned off the TV dejectedly.
In fact, 100 million players? It's much more than that now.
What this game brings to people is a true feeling of experiencing a second life! No matter men, women, old or young, they cannot resist this charm.
The number of players increases exponentially.
The more this happened, the more unwilling the young man became.
Toot toot.
The phone rang in my trouser pocket.
After the boy took it out and saw the caller, he took a deep breath and answered the call.
Hello.
Mr. You, it’s me.
The person on the other side of the conversation was an old voice.
But the young man would not look down on the old man opposite him at all, because he knew that the old man he was talking to on the phone was the person at the helm who now held the lifeblood of the Oriental Ten Cities Game. Even with his status, he has no right to be proud in front of this old man.
A week passed. I believe you have also seen the reaction of players to advertisements, right
The young man said unwillingly: This is not fair, there must be something wrong in it! Even if it is a coincidence, it cannot be a coincidence that even the game names are exactly the same. This is naked plagiarism...
Mr. You!
The old man's voice carried an unquestionable momentum: Please understand, now they have succeeded. And you are still only preparing for the first public test. Now, who failed? And what about copyright? All of you are several steps behind others! What's more, in the world of shopping malls, plagiarism? Who cares about this, just like history is always written by the winners, and no one cares about the losers.
The old man's voice was like sharp arrows, piercing the young man's heart.
The old and the young were silent.
After a long time, the old man finally said: Mr. You, your father and I also had some friendships. And the current situation of your company... I don't need to know more. I believe you know better than me. Let me get straight to the point! I am willing to acquire your company, which is called a merger to the outside world, and I guarantee that all the old employees of your company will not be fired. only…
The young man smiled bitterly at this time: But as the chairman, I have to step down and give way to others, right
The old man was silent for a moment and then spoke again: Mr. You, you should know that except for the once-famous name of Changyou Games, your company is worthless in my eyes. I believe that Mr. You has no chance of rejecting my offer and conditions.
The young man named You was still speechless, but he was still thinking rapidly in his mind.
With the current economic situation of your company... can you survive this month? As if sensing the young man's hesitation, the old man's last words completely shattered the last layer of protection in the young man's heart.
good. I sell.
… …
The young man was riding a five-story maglev passenger bus and looked blankly out of the colorful window.
Next stop, Weiye Avenue.
The electronic sound coming from the bus woke the boy up from his reverie, and he hurriedly got off the bus.
After getting off the bus, the boy walked very fast. He seemed to be running but he was running faster than ordinary people. But the amazing thing was that the boy didn't even take a breath.
Soon, he took out the employee ID card in his hand.
This chairman's certificate that once represented Changyou Games will soon lose its validity, right
After punching his card and entering, the young man walked quickly and arrived in front of the dining hall.
He opened the door of the canteen without hesitation, and he was not surprised even if hundreds of employees were gathering inside the canteen at this moment. Because this gathering was originally ordered by him.
Everyone looked at the young chairman with admiration, disdain... mixed feelings.
The young man spoke: Hello everyone, I am You Long, your chairman.
I'm sorry to tell you that starting tomorrow, I will no longer be your chairman. Because Changyou Game Company no longer belongs to us, Youjia, I have sold it to the gaming industry directors of ten eastern cities. But the guarantee I got from them is that none of you will be fired.
Woo…
In the corner, dozens of men and women began to cry quietly.
They all belong to the game development department.
Only they know how much the chairman has paid for the company. In order to develop the real world, in addition to borrowing money, he also sold his luxury cars and houses, all of which were used as working capital. Just when they were full of ambitions to conduct a public test of this world-shaking online game, the real world of television has suddenly emerged.
This real world is different from that real world. The miraculous brain wave system alone has made the faces of people who play the game look ashen. They desperately tried to find out the harmful effects of this brain wave system on humans, but found that this brain wave system was even more mature and perfect than they imagined.
The brain wave system will not bring any adverse effects to the brain at all.
Stillborn.
These four words cannot be more appropriate to describe them.
