Chapter 539 Door and Key

Jiang Chen's words immediately brought the off-topic press conference back to the main topic, and at the same time gave the Phantom Helmet a powerful advertisement without leaving any trace.

The media in the audience were once again shocked.

Participate in a real-life press conference through a virtual reality headset?

A word suddenly popped into Danny's mind.

AR?

The so-called AR is the abbreviation of augmented reality, a technology that uses virtual objects to "enhance the display" of real scenes. Compared with virtual reality (VR), it has the advantages of strong sense of reality and small modeling workload. Representative products include Microsoft's HoloLens. After wearing the glasses, you can turn your dining table into a game table and turn the wall into a TV screen.

However, for people in social environments, the shortcomings of AR technology are also obvious. For example, what will your roommates think when you wear augmented reality glasses and wave your arms to do some weird things in the air?

No matter how you think about it, this embarrassing syndrome must have happened again.

This is also one of the difficulties in the development of today's AR application technology, that is, only people wearing "glasses" can see the "enhanced display" of virtual objects. But now the Future Science and Technology Institute has perfectly achieved the integration of virtuality and reality through the medium of holographic projection, which is why the reporters present were surprised.

"Phantom Helmet." Jiang Chenlao spread out his hand and said with a smile while facing the silent reporters, "The key to the virtual world."

The light particles gathered into lines and woven into a helmet full of reality just above his palm like a shuttle. The helmet just floated on his palm, rotating slowly under the gaze of all the reporters in the room.

"I believe that everyone here already has an understanding of the performance of our helmet. I will not go into details about each parameter here. I will only list two numbers here, 1.44 million and 0."

When Jiang Chen mentioned the number 1.44 million, many media outlets already reacted. This number is exactly the total number of helmets that Futureman Technology has invested in the world when conducting virtual reality experience activities previously announced by Futureman Technology.

But what is 0?

At this moment, all reporters had such questions. Jiang Chen, who saw through this, answered the question in their minds with his next words.

"Of the 1.44 million Phantom helmets, 37% were in working condition 24 hours a day during these three months, but none of them were damaged due to operational failures."

Hear the words.

In the 12 press conference venues around the world, all reporters were moved.

"How can it be."

"There is no damage caused by operating failure... This ratio is too unscientific no matter how you say it, right?"

"Who can prove this? There must be a limit to bragging. Are you treating consumers around the world as idiots?" A short reporter stood up at the press conference in Tokyo. Weirdly, he questioned Jiang Chen's holographic image.

"Of course I can prove it, Mr. Hirota. As for the evidence, there should be an Internet cafe 300 meters away from the door, which is a cooperative experience store of Futureman Technology. Am I bragging? Why don't you go and see for yourself? In addition, , I noticed that you stood up to speak without raising your hands just now, and before entering the venue, you should have signed a guarantee regarding the order of the press conference. I have to wonder if you Sankei Shimbun reporters are all like this Unruly?"

Listening to the sympathetic or mocking whispers in his ears, Masao Hirota sat back with a pale face.

He never expected it. Jiang Chen, who was facing 12 venues at the same time, was actually able to notice his speech.

Jiang Chen's words of criticism, which were obviously meant to be criticized, were addressed to 12 venues around the world. After embarrassing the Sankei Shimbun in front of the whole world, his career was over in any case.

“Let’s go back to the Phantom helmet. As you can see, our helmet has a long standby time and an extraordinary quality assurance. Even if it is running continuously for three months, it will not be due to The circuit is aging, overheating and damaged, resulting in lag or even crash.”

"The reason why the Phantom helmet can do this is precisely because of our unique sealing technology. Therefore, our helmet will not have a disassembly port, and we will not accept any disassembly. Any consequences caused by disassembly will be borne by the user." And due to failures caused by normal use, we provide free replacement and half-price exchange services."

Jiang Chen deliberately downplayed the role of the graphene chip, but gave the "self-destruction upon disassembly" confidentiality method a "necessary" name. However, his statement obviously did not satisfy all the media, and many media raised their hands. I hope Jiang Chen can give them a chance to speak.

Standing on the podium in the virtual reality scene, Jiang Chen simply counted the number of people who raised their hands in the 12 venues, then coughed lightly and spoke.

"Judging from the press conference, it is obvious that many media have a lot of doubts about the statement I gave. I have almost finished what I should say, and it is still the same old rule. In the remaining time, you ask and I answer. "

Jiang Chen just finished speaking. All the media present raised their hands. But despite this, the scene was still orderly. Following the Sankei Shimbun's lesson, no reporter stood up to answer questions and disrupted the order of the venue.

Hearing Jiang Chen call his number, Charles, who was sitting next to Danny, immediately stood up and asked.

"The sealing method adopted by your company for the Phantom helmet is understandable, but is the circuit overload program triggered by disassembly a bit excessive? After all, users should have the right to control the product when purchasing the product. Secrecy can be passed through patent law, but should not be sacrificed Users’ Rights and Interests.”

Hearing his colleague's tricky questions, Danny couldn't help but nodded secretly. Although this reporter from California Daily looked a little silly, when asked, he pointedly pointed at the weaknesses of future people's technology. Sacrifice the legitimate rights and interests of consumers? In this country that is "keen on safeguarding rights", it is indeed difficult for future generations of technology to get over this issue.

"Here I have to correct the public's misunderstanding about our future human technology." However, Jiang Chen was well prepared and faced many media with a smile. "First of all, we have never set up any confidentiality mechanism that harms the legitimate rights and interests of users. .”

Many reporters who were preparing to ask this question were dumbfounded by Jiang Chen's answer.

What kind of answer is this? Forcibly describing black as white?

"But you can't ignore the fact that you infringed the law just because you signed a warranty agreement with the user at the time of purchase," Charles argued.

"Please pay attention to your wording, Mr. Charles. Futureman Technology currently only conducts pre-sales on the official website, and you can apply for a refund at any time to make way for pre-sales. The Phantom helmets currently on the market are all in virtual reality experience stores . And those helmets were never sold. Strictly speaking, they are the property of Future People Technology.

Here, I do not pursue the legal responsibility of those individuals or collectives who dismantle the company's property without authorization, but only charge a penalty of double the price of the helmet to the defaulting party. Until consumers can get the helmet in the express package three days later. It’s us who are being infringed all the time, do you understand? "Jiang Chen looked into Charles' eyes and said with a smile.

The reason for not pursuing legal responsibility is that there is no way to investigate. Some disassembly actions are personal claims, while some disassembly research is conducted with the tacit approval of the state. To hold them legally accountable. It is as difficult as suing the Future Group for monopoly in the new country.

The Adam's apple moved, and Charles felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart. Although I always feel that there is something wrong with what he said, he has said many specific problems.

Danny, who was sitting next to him, was secretly surprised. In just one sentence, Jiang Chen changed the position of the Future People Group from the infringing party to the infringed party.

"And what I want to say next is an explanation to all consumers who are interested in buying a Phantom helmet." After a pause, Jiang Chen continued, "As we said, we have never set up any confidentiality mechanism. Disassembly The helmet causes the circuit to burn out purely because we have a device in the helmet to protect the circuit. The act of disassembly will cause the device to overload the current and damage the internal circuit of the helmet. I admit it. This is a technological shortcoming of our future generations. , we will definitely improve this, and we hope that consumers can understand."

There is no such shameless explanation as saying that the confidentiality mechanism is insufficient in technology. At this moment, many people who coveted virtual reality technology who were watching the live broadcast of the conference on the official website of Futureman Technology were slapping their thighs and shouting shamelessly.

But they had no way to refute this explanation. After all, the only company that can make immersive virtual reality equipment is Futureman Technology, and only they have the final right to interpret this technology.

I can't do it, you can't force me to do it, right?

The media that originally planned to question whether the confidentiality measures were excessive have also given up on this plan. Future People Technology has already explained this. Asking questions from this aspect will only waste precious questioning opportunities and will not get any interesting information.

After Charles sat down. Another reporter selected to speak stood up. Judging from the microphone in her hand, she should be a reporter from the Wall Street Journal, and his questions were undoubtedly focused on the economic side. rather than the technical side.

"Mr. Jiang Chen, your company has achieved an absolute leading position in the field of virtual reality. Will you use your technical advantages to hinder other companies from entering this field?"

This issue is very sensitive because it involves an issue that all major groups keep secret.

That's a monopoly.

"Of course not, we are happy to work with other companies to develop the virtual reality space. As you can see, the Phantom headset can do more than just games. Games are just the means by which we can bring it to the world. The reason why I can simultaneously Attending press conferences held in 12 venues around the world was precisely due to the function of the Phantom helmet." Jiang Chen said with a smile.

When Jiang Chen said these words, the eyes of all the media reporters lit up. Futureman Technology is ready to cooperate with other companies in the field of virtual reality! This is incredible information!

It is precisely because of his words that the following questions from the media basically revolved around the content of the cooperation.

For example, what form will cooperation take? In the future, will RenTech open its technology to other people? Jiang Chen also answered these questions one by one.

Immersive virtual reality technology is the core technology of Futureman Technology. This technology will not be made public, and there are no plans to register a patent in the short term. If you want, you can develop it yourself. But for content cooperation, Futureman Technology is absolutely welcome.

The scope of cooperation will cover any field that the Internet can cover today. After a period of time, Futureman Technology will gradually open up related technologies for virtual reality program development to partners to facilitate Internet companies to develop software that is compatible with Phantom helmets.

The market for virtual reality is huge, and all the functions that the Internet now has can theoretically be realized on the virtual reality platform. The strength of one company alone is definitely not enough to capture the entire market, and it may also face antitrust investigations for preventing other companies from entering the market.

Futurian Technology only needs to master the "key" to enter this market, as well as the quantum computer server as the "door", and the quantum communication satellite that will be launched as a virtual reality network connection node in the future.

As for the world behind the door, it should be jointly developed by companies around the world.

Therefore, this product launch conference not only provides the Phantom Helmet as the key to enter the virtual world, but also releases a positive signal to companies around the world interested in entering the virtual reality industry.

A signal called cooperation. (To be continued.) () "I Have a Suite in the End of the World" only represents the views of the author Chenxing LL.
