Blue Star II is the first, and only Kechuang Biotechnology has the capability to do so, mapping the entire real-world Blue Star into the virtual world.
Furthermore, in the virtual world, you can almost replicate all the flavors that exist in the real world.
It was on Blue Star II that I first tried Chinese hot pot. Although it is very famous, I had never tried it before because of my fear of this kind of strange cuisine.
It wasn't until a media friend I met during a conference in China reconnected with me in the virtual world that I tried hot pot for the first time at his invitation.
I couldn't tell whether this magical taste was the same as in the real world, but judging from his expression and demeanor, I thought it probably was.
Because the float I tasted in the virtual town of New Bern, North Carolina, tasted exactly the same as the one in the real world.
You should know that apart from people in North Carolina, very few people in other states have ever tasted this stuff.
What I will describe in this chapter is the monetary system adopted by Blue Star II.
It is well known that governments around the world have been trying to promote their own digital currencies.
Whether it's America, China, or any other country—and I'm sorry, it's not that other countries aren't important, but in the mind of an American, when other countries are mentioned, the first thing that comes to mind is China.
I've seen this name far too many times on TV programs, among various politicians, and on the internet.
On the eve of the launch of BlueStar 2, economists were very interested in what kind of currency BlueStar 2 would use.
Because the currencies in both magical and fantasy worlds are based on the game's established currency system, and cannot be directly exchanged for real-world currencies through official channels.
There are no officially provided currency trading channels.
However, Blue Star II is different. From the moment the construction of Blue Star II was authorized to these internet giants, Ms. Li Miaomiao, the actual controller of Kechuang Biotechnology, showed her expectations for Blue Star II.
Because often, to accomplish something, you need to learn how to share the benefits; without understanding how to share benefits, there will be a limit to your development.
It must be said that Ms. Li Miaomiao's ambition has made Blue Star II's current position unshakable.
First, they selected the most renowned economists on Earth and asked them to come up with a plan on what kind of monetary system should be adopted after Earth II is sold to all of humanity.
It involves creating a completely new currency out of thin air, then finding an anchor point and binding the new currency to that anchor point from issuance to pricing.
These economists proposed many solutions, but since the meeting and its results have never been made public, we do not know which economist proposed the current monetary system.
Even their own claims are quite inaccurate.
I'm more inclined to believe it was proposed by scholars of the Chicago School of Economics, but I don't know the specifics.
In short, after Li Miaomiao decided on the plan, she began lengthy negotiations with governments of various countries.
Blue Star II directly adopts the real-world monetary system.
In other words, real-world currencies can be used directly on Blue Star II.
All economic activities on Blue Star II are linked to the real world.
I spend a certain amount of money in Blue Star II to pay the other party for services. After the other party receives this money, they can return to reality after paying a certain handling fee according to the withdrawal channel.
For all countries, their land area has doubled out of thin air, and their printed currency has found a new destination.
The money flowing into global inflation has found a new destination.
This is equivalent to completely binding the virtual world's monetary system with the real world, while there are no boundaries between the real and virtual worlds.
Li Miaomiao gave away such a large piece of the pie to governments around the world out of thin air, which led to the smooth development of virtual reality devices and bio-communication networks in various countries.
What I admire most is that all the properties on Blue Star II are only for lease and not for sale.
After years of declassification, we now know that this decision was also made by Ms. Li Miaomiao.
I have to say this is a very wise approach.
It is very difficult to control oneself.
For an organization or a company, if there are so many benefits coming out of nowhere, you can slowly swallow them up.
The most valuable asset on Blue Star II is undoubtedly its vast real estate holdings, including residential properties, office buildings, and tourism properties.
Because you feel no difference between the virtual world and the real world.
The weather and climate are kept consistent with the real world.
This means that, theoretically, the value of real estate in the virtual world is the same as, or even higher than, that of real estate in the real world.
Real-world properties deteriorate due to aging and develop various problems over time.
The virtual world will not be like that; it will remain the same ten, twenty, or fifty years from now.
For Kechuang Bio, they could simply acquire real estate piecemeal, like acquiring properties near Central Park in New York today, Beverly Hills in Los Angeles tomorrow, and Bill Gates' mansion on the shores of Lake Washington in Seattle the day after.
Anyway, the mountain mansion in the virtual world doesn't belong to Bill Gates.
There are countless such top-tier residences around the world that could fetch astronomical prices for scientifically created organisms in the virtual world.
At the same time, countless ordinary homes can also be sold to ordinary people at a low, but not that low, price.
