There was a little drizzle in the sky, but the wind blowing on the sea was not very strong. >The rolling waves of the net beat against the side of the ship, and water splashed wantonly on the bow. The staff wore raincoats and carried cameras in front, but the reporter stood on the bow of the ship harder, holding the railing with one hand and holding the microphone with the other. The audience in front of the TV brought first-hand news.
"Now, behind us is the legendary Penglai City. You may not be able to see it, because we are still about fifteen nautical miles away from the nearest port! Look at that black spot, what we can see now is the Penglai City Central Building The top of the tower. The coast guard ship of Star Circle Trading has temporarily blocked this area of the sea. The blockade will be lifted at 12 noon, and our reporters will bring you further reports at that time... "
His face was red from the blow, but there was no warmth at all. After shouting the last word, Lu Xiao wiped the water from his face. With weak legs, she stepped off the bow with the help of the staff.
Back in the cabin, Li Hanliang, the old leader of the interview team, came over and handed her a bottle of mineral water.
"Xiaoxiao, thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard work!" After drinking half a bottle with his head held high, Lu Xiao finally regained some energy, and the vitality returned to his green face, "Team Leader Li, has Starring Trading agreed to our application?"
Li Hanliang shook his head, sighed, and sat on the chair next to him.
"This matter is difficult to handle. No matter what I say, they won't agree. But the same goes for other TV stations. They are not partial to anyone in this matter. Even their own New Country TV station is staying outside the blockade area."
Hearing this, Lu Xiao couldn't help but have a strange expression.
This doesn't look like an interview, it totally looks like a race! On the boat next to it is C's reporter, and further away is Columbia TV. It allows so many media to rent a boat to wait. The Future People Group is also respectable enough.
Time passed quickly, and soon it was noon, and the coast guard ship also issued a green light.
After receiving the news of the contact blockade, the cruise ships and small boats surrounding Penglai City began to move forward, sailing towards the city called a miracle.
Looking down from the helicopter, the scene of a ship dragging white waves and rushing towards Penglai City from all directions is like a magnificent picture! According to statistics from the Tourism Bureau, the number of people who applied to land on the island in the first batch is as high as 127,000, and the total number of large and small ships in the target waters exceeds 9,000!
On the other side, a luxurious medium-sized cruise ship also moved slowly, carrying tourists visiting Penglai City.
The weather on the sea changes quickly. It was raining for the first two hours, but now the sun has come out, and the deck is getting hot in a short time. Wearing casual beach clothes, Wei Wendong stood on the bow of the cruise ship, looking in the direction of Penglai City, with an expectant smile on his lips.
That was Penglai City, the wonder he had seen in the virtual world...
It can be said that he is full of expectations for what this city will look like in the real world.
A few days after the new year, the god-level 6a2 season ended, and the royal guild won the first place in individual competition and the proud result of fifth place in the group stage! The title of this champion naturally belongs to him, the "Shadow Demon". To celebrate his victory, the sponsor directly gave him a red envelope of Rm 20 million.
is it a lot? Not much actually.
Not to mention the number of players in the God-level Continent, which is the largest in the world. Due to the popularity of virtual reality online games and its amazing viewing experience, many people who do not play games have joined in the fun and put on their helmets to apply for tourist seats. The crowd watched this large-scale event broadcast live around the world.
According to official data provided by Futureman Technology, excluding the ratings of those broadcast by TV stations, the peak number of viewers of the arena live broadcast exceeded 290 million!
What is the concept of 290 million? The number of viewers of the post-game broadcast must at least double!
Think about it, the peak number of viewers per game is only over 20 million. Qualifiers in the individual and group competitions are allowed to have the sponsoring company's trademark behind their name. It is self-evident how high the commercial value is to be able to insert one's own trademark into an event with such terrifying attention and allow one's company to be exposed in front of billions of people around the world.
Wei Wendong didn't know exactly how much money the sponsor gave their union afterwards. He only knew that the number would not be less than 500 million soft sister coins.
After the game, the Royal Guild directly chartered an entire luxury cruise ship and brought all the core members of the guild to a full-scale offline party! The destination of this offline gathering is Penglai City.
He clicked on the future phone rolled up on his wrist, and a palm-sized holographic screen suddenly unfolded above his wrist. Taking a photo of the distant view of Penglai City, looking at the city on the screen, and letting the sea breeze ruffle his head, Wei Wendong couldn't help but feel a little energetic in his smile.
Last year, he bought two properties in Penglai City, a level 2 apartment with purchase restrictions and a level 4 apartment with no purchase restrictions. When he took the photos of these two houses, he was still a little bit heartbroken. He spent half of his savings on the two houses, but now he only regrets why he didn't spend the other half as well.
With the completion of Penglai City, rumors that it could not be completed went bankrupt. In less than a month, the prices of the two houses in his hands have doubled, and there is even a tendency to double again.
Soon, the cruise ship docked at the harbor of Penglai City.
The entire ring-shaped artificial island is surrounded by thousands of ports, as well as private and public boathouses that can be accessed freely. Although the scene of more than 9,000 ships approaching is spectacular, it is not crowded when landing on the island.
As advertised, the entire city is filled with a sense of cutting-edge science fiction. Billboards, store signs, and big screens on the roof of shopping malls all use the holographic technology produced by Futureman Group.
Putting on the aR glasses he got from the customs, the cute navigation elf Xiaoyu appeared in his hands for the first time in a long time. After playfully flying around him a few times, Xiaoyu flew in front of him, and at his request, took him towards the property he purchased.
While walking, Xiaoyu chattered, answering his questions and introducing him to information about Penglai City.
Such realistic augmented reality technology made it difficult for him to tell whether this was virtuality or reality.
On both sides of the street, various shops are open for business. Workers in shopping malls, restaurants, and service industries had already landed on the island as early as yesterday because they had obtained permission to enter in advance, and packed up their stores in order to open their doors on the opening day of the city.
There are few cars on the streets and people mostly walk. However, Penglai City's transportation planning is very good. Twelve suspended train rail lines buried on the ground floor can allow tourists to reach any point in the city within ten minutes.
In addition, it is said that magnetic tracks were buried in the city's highways at the beginning of construction. After Future Heavy Industries' maglev vehicle technology makes a breakthrough, the city's traffic will shift from plane to three-dimensional...
Thinking of this, Wei Wendong couldn't help but look forward to it.
Filled with so many cutting-edge technologies, living in such a city, such a life will definitely not be boring... (.)
