Chapter 374 Press Conference Part 2



"I'm just wondering, could we not sell them overseas, and keep the first million units all in China?"

"What are you thinking? How could a multinational giant like Kechuang Bio only consider the Chinese market?"

Another key point is that the whole world is the same, and everyone enters at the same time. Those who enter first will inevitably have a first-mover advantage.

This first-mover advantage cannot be measured by money alone.

In traditional virtual reality online game novels, if the protagonist enters the game ten days early, it's considered a cheat code.

Not to mention the virtual reality world released by Kechuang Biotechnology, where those who buy early can enter six months in advance.

There are many people around the world who can think of this, and for them, even if they are overcharged and ripped off by scalpers, they are willing to do so.

Moreover, the phenomenon of scalpers is not unique to China; scalpers also exist abroad, and in considerable numbers.

For example, tickets to the 2018 Moscow World Cup were resold by scalpers for as much as 2,300 US dollars.

They're even more ruthless than the scalpers in China.

The difference is that many countries have strict penalties for scalping.

China lacks regulatory means in this regard.

Those rich kids who are determined to make a name for themselves in the virtual world don't care about this extra cost at all.

Some wealthy second-generation individuals with connections have already started contacting familiar scalpers to pre-order virtual reality lifeforms from Kechuang Biotechnology.

"It's over, we definitely won't be able to get this much production capacity."

"This is much harder than trying to buy train tickets during the Spring Festival."

"I'm already queuing up at the physical flagship store of Kechuang Future. I estimate that the number of people queuing up is already over three digits."

Some enthusiastic consumers or scalpers have already lined up offline.

Li Miaomiao continued on stage: "In order to avoid the existence of scalpers..."

This time, we will adopt an online ordering and offline pickup method.

Each FutureOS account can only purchase one virtual reality device.

The scalpers watching the live stream sneered, "It's just a FutureOS account; I can have as many as I want."

Li Miaomiao continued, "Consumers who pick up their goods offline need to bind their 'Future' account on the spot. Once 'Future' is bound to a user, it cannot be unbound."

Each person's brainwaves are unique, and once a consumer has bound themselves to the 'future,' they cannot be bound again.

The only way for users to pre-order the future is through brain-computer interface VR using FutureOS.

The brain-computer interface VR will synchronously transmit your brainwave data from when you plan your 'future' back to our backend.

Finally, when picking up the goods offline, it is necessary to keep brainwaves in sync.

This method completely avoids scalping, and because each person's brainwaves are unique, each user can only purchase one 'Future' device.

After Li Miaomiao finished speaking, the scalpers who hadn't had time to collect the deposit felt a surge of relief, while those who had collected the deposit, especially those who had signed contracts and received large sums of money, were completely dismayed.

Since a large deposit was received and a contract was signed, it means that the contract cannot be fulfilled, and therefore, liquidated damages must be paid.

The chat on major live streaming platforms erupted in celebration:

"Scalpers are lucky to survive."

"The scalpers in my WeChat Moments have started cursing Li Miaomiao."

"Just the barking of a defeated dog."

"This is insane! Brainwave binding—only a tech company like Kechuang Bio could come up with something like this."

"Could concerts adopt a similar format? I've never been able to get tickets to the concerts I want to see every year."

"You scalpers, die!"

"If we do it this way, even if I don't manage to buy it, I'll feel better. Everyone's on their own speed, and whoever gets it first gets it."

Most people share the same mentality: they are not worried about scarcity but about inequality.

When managers manage their subordinates, as long as they can be relatively fair, the results will not be too bad.

On the contrary, managers who think they are clever and try to sow discord among their subordinates by unequal distribution of benefits in order to consolidate their own position will eventually get burned.

"We will sell it on our official website and pick it up in-store."

Another point to note is that because virtual reality devices use biological computers, the 'future' cannot connect to the internet using traditional communication methods.

Neither Wi-Fi, 5G, 5.5G, nor traditional fiber optic communication are supported; we are using bio-communication technology.

Because virtual reality devices require the transmission of information from all five senses, traditional communication technologies cannot handle this level of data volume.

Perhaps the future 6G or 7G era will allow it, but at least current traditional communication technologies cannot meet the requirements of virtual reality devices.

Therefore, we adopted a completely new bio-communication technology.

This is the communication tree you see before you.

After speaking, a bio-communication tree made of AR effects appeared in front of Li Miaomiao, which was not much different from other ornamental plants.

Its special features can only be seen from its leaves and branches.

"Yes, the trees that look the same to everyone in Suzhou are our bio-communication trees."

Due to limited production capacity, the current network connectivity function can only be implemented within the Suzhou area.

Globally, connectivity has only been implemented in major cities such as New York, London, Tokyo, Paris, and Berlin.

As for other regions, the network will be rolled out gradually.

When it is released in the future, it will feature two virtual worlds, "Fantasy World" and "Magic World", with "Fantasy World" being a single-player world.

It can fully meet the needs of different players.

As for "The Wizarding World," it is an online virtual world that can currently only be accessed in areas with bio-communication coverage.
