"Surreal?"
Li Shuyao looked puzzled.
Li Miaomiao nodded and said, "Just now, after the dinner at Tencent, I had a private chat with President Ma."
In fact, what they introduced at the press conference was only a very small part of Huanyu-Pengcheng.
Mr. Ma proposed a surreal concept.
Everyone's concept of Shenzhen differs from the real Shenzhen, and the Shenzhen they want to create in the virtual universe is different from both of these.
Li Shuyao countered, "Just like how each person is?"
Who you are, your self-perception, and the image you project to others are three distinct concepts.
Do these three concepts overlap or differ?
The concepts of "id, ego, and superego" mentioned by Li Shuyao are not the same as Freud's.
After thinking for a moment, Li Miaomiao said, "It's somewhat similar, but not exactly the same."
"Tencent's vision for Universal Pengcheng is to build it into a complete ecosystem."
Residential properties are sold to individual users.
The residences will be laid out exactly like those in the real world, and each residence will only be sold once.
However, office buildings are different. They are mainly sold to companies that need remote conferencing, and can be purchased on a one-time basis or on a monthly basis.
A single conference room can be sold to countless companies.
In addition, there is the commercial pedestrian street.
Shenzhen's commercial pedestrian streets and shopping malls attract investment from consumer brands across the country.
Tencent has reached initial cooperation agreements with a series of well-known consumer brands, including KFC, McDonald's, Uniqlo, rice, Vivo, Oppo, NIO, and Li Auto.
You can walk into the Uniqlo store in Huanyu Pengcheng and try on their latest clothing. If you are interested in buying something, you can place an order directly in Huanyu Pengcheng.
The item will be delivered to your home after purchase.
The same principle applies to KFC and McDonald's; after you purchase, the food will be delivered to your door by a delivery person.
Li Shuyao: "It's like you're shopping in Huanyu Pengcheng, and there are physical goods for sale to you."
Li Miaomiao continued, "That's right. Tencent has integrated WeChat Pay with Huanyu Pengcheng."
Currently, Huanyu Pengcheng includes functions such as food, mobile phones, automobiles, clothing, education, medical care, and office space.
You can even test drive NIO's electric cars at the Huanyu Pengcheng (a shopping mall/company name).
Li Shuyao asked, "Then it's impossible for these companies to have only one store in Huanyu Pengcheng."
Given KFC's style, they must have many stores, right?
Li Miaomiao nodded and said, "Yes, the number of KFC and McDonald's stores in the virtual city is the same as the number of stores in the real city of Shenzhen."
However, in Huanyu-Pengcheng, there is no need for so many shop assistants.
For example, users may enter KFC from different stores in Huanyu-Pengcheng, but in reality they are entering the same store.
In other words, there is actually only one store in the backend.
There are fewer than ten human shop assistants; the rest are automated programs.
When they need human shop assistants, they appear out of thin air.
The nighttime lights in Shenzhen, including those in the city of Shenzhen, will have a very unique neon effect.
Completely cyberpunk style.
Li Shuyao remarked, "Tencent is completely focused on building an ecosystem."
Tencent is too obsessed with building its ecosystem.
According to what you said, Tencent envisioned it to be this perfect from the very beginning.
Furthermore, having already established partnerships with so many companies creates a natural barrier to entry.
For later players to enter the market, WeChat Pay alone is something that other manufacturers cannot handle.
Only Ali (Ali) has a chance to compete with Tencent in this field.
Tencent has always been uncompromising about its core interests, which are user traffic.
They will spare no effort to fight for anything that could potentially threaten them.
For non-core interests, Tencent chooses to support them by investing in them.
The launch of Huanyu-Pengcheng's product sparked heated discussions among netizens, with almost all platforms criticizing it.
"The goose is a disgusting goose. In reality, it gets exploited by the real estate industry, and it gets exploited again in the metaverse."
"Grandpa laughed. My house is no longer mine in the virtual universe. I need to spend money to buy it again."
"Don't even think about getting a single penny out of me, Tencent! I won't buy your virtual real estate, not even for a few dozen yuan, let alone hundreds of thousands!"
A wave of public opinion against Tencent products has swept across the internet.
People on Zhihu tend to be more rational.
How would you evaluate Tencent's "Global-Pengcheng" product launched at today's press conference?
"Thanks for the invitation. The Huanyu-Pengcheng server just opened at 9 o'clock, and I just went in to experience it."
From a product perspective, I think it's good.
Upon hearing about this product, including the promise of virtual real estate, a price that's one-tenth of the registered price of a commercial property, and the same transaction setup as a real-world secondhand property, I was immediately struck by its promise of virtual real estate, a price that's essentially one-tenth of the registered price of a commercial property, and the same transaction setup as a real-world secondhand property.
When I hear these things, I feel an instinctive, physiological aversion.
I am not a beneficiary of the system. Even though I have a decent income, a large portion of it goes towards paying off my mortgage.
I didn't benefit from the mortgage rate reductions in recent years; I bought a property almost at the peak of mortgage rates.
I deeply abhor housing prices that are completely out of sync with reality. My first reaction to Tencent's actions is that they are resorting to any means to make money.
I went in to experience it at 9 pm tonight. After coming out and thinking about it carefully, I have to admit that Tencent's move was their best choice and a brilliant business strategy.
First of all, Tencent mobilized almost all the areas they were involved in and all the commercial resources they could.
