Chapter 261 Water Element



Many so-called random draws are actually pre-arranged.

However, this lottery is different. We have enough confidence in our future and don't need to resort to such underhanded tactics.

They are confident that their products can win the recognition and respect of users, and they don't need to resort to such a low-level method as arranging shills to complete a product launch.

Therefore, Lawrence and Jim were lucky audience members randomly selected to come on stage.

Lawrence had tried to find traces of magic since his freshman year, but he had come up empty-handed because Herman was too weak.

Although they knew the actual route Rowling took from Manchester to London, they didn't complete the entire route, or even reach a tenth of it.

Even after they obtained their driver's licenses, they never had the opportunity to go through the process again.

My trip to London to attend the Science and Technology Future launch event was also due to the Christmas holidays.

He and Herman are both big fans of brain-computer interface VR.

"Next, we would like to invite you two to experience our fighting game, the VR version of 'The King of Fighters' co-developed by SNK and Tencent."

The King of Fighters is also a classic of its time, and it became popular because of its online multiplayer mode.

This game is mainly popular in the three East Asian countries of China, Japan, and Korea.

Fortunately, it's a classic game, and even in Europe and America, most people have heard of it.

The reason Tencent developed VR King of Fighters is because they bought the adaptation rights to King of Fighters years ago but have never been able to recoup their costs.

This brain-computer interface has achieved greater freedom, so Tencent (the company behind Tencent) is thinking of taking out King of Fighters and revamping it.

Let's see if the current players will buy it. Anyway, the characters and combat mechanics are already there; we just need to modify them.

Lawrence on stage didn't care much about winning or losing, because in his view, winning or losing didn't matter. The most important thing was that the second-generation brain-computer interface VR could meet his expectations.

Herman, sitting in the audience, was very nervous, praying in his heart: You absolutely have to win, because you got a 500 euro voucher!

After a dedicated staff member helped Lawrence and Jim put on helmets and gloves, Song Zhiwen said, "You two can choose the King of Fighters symbol, and then choose the Link Fight."

The on-site Wi-Fi 7 was sufficient for the two to battle with extremely low latency.

After Lawrence put on the helmet and entered the VR system interface, he found it to be much smoother.

It's not just that the system is optimized to be smoother, but the brain-controlled display interface is also smoother.

The large screen behind them was displaying the character selection screen, featuring all the classic characters from King of Fighters.

Unlike other game companies that always try to incorporate their own elements when collaborating with them, Tencent always prioritizes making money.

In this model of buying the copyrights of classic games and redeveloping and operating them, Tencent will try its best to respect the successful elements of the classic games and will not make major changes to these elements.

"Next comes the exciting part..."

Before Song Zhiwen could finish speaking, a commotion arose in the southeast corner of the venue, loud enough to be heard throughout the entire hall.

"Excuse me, everyone, please leave in an orderly manner!"

A water elemental appeared out of nowhere in the southeast corner. Unlike the blue water elemental summoned by the Archmage's first skill in Warcraft III, the water elemental in the southeast corner was somewhat black.

There is still a certain difference between water and air, which allowed Song Zhiwen to clearly see that it was a humanoid monster made of water.

As a strategy game that was once popular all over the world, Warcraft is naturally familiar to Song Zhiwen, who was a master of playing against AI back then.

He felt that the monster was very similar to the water elemental in Warcraft.

The monster is about 2.5 meters tall and is walking from the southeast corner towards the center.

"Damn it, what bad luck! To run into something like this." Song Zhiwen cursed inwardly.

Having traveled all over the country for so many years, and having held many product launches when I was at Black Shark, this is the first time I've seen water elements causing trouble.

"Please pay attention to your safety and leave in an orderly manner. Your personal safety is the most important thing right now. If you want to take photos or videos, please do so only after ensuring your own safety."

What left Song Zhiwen speechless was that there was a gasp of surprise from those around him, but no one ran away; instead, everyone was taking pictures and videos.

Some spectators even tried to attack the water elemental, only to be knocked down by a water ball thrown back at them.

The water element has shown strong aggression, constantly gathering water balls in its hands to attack the surrounding audience.

Even so, as long as they weren't attacked, the audience kept taking pictures, and no one knew they had to leave.

The water elemental is relentlessly attacking the surrounding crowd, moving in a straight line towards the stage in the venue.

After finishing his speech, Song Zhiwen instructed his subordinates: "Take the two guests off the stage away from the scene, then have the security personnel go up and call the police immediately, and contact the Chinese Embassy."

Song Zhiwen knew that everyone else could panic, but he couldn't.

The water sphere that the Water Element gathered between its hands demonstrated a powerful impact, and several spectators who were hit by it fainted.

Song Zhiwen knew he absolutely couldn't run away at this moment, even though the water element was coming directly at him. He couldn't leave until all the audience members had safely left the venue.

If he leaves, the corporate image of Kechuang Future will be greatly affected, and who knows how Western media will criticize them.

Having worked in marketing for so many years, Song Zhiwen is well aware of the difficulties Chinese companies face in expanding into international markets, as well as the double standards they often encounter.
