Chapter 323 Camera



In the afternoon, Chen Xu received another call from Luo Xiyun, asking him to come over.

He said helplessly, "It seems that we can't go to the data center today."

Data centers occupy a very important position in his future career. In the future, it will be an era of cloud computing and artificial intelligence. Whoever has the larger storage space, the stronger computing power, and the faster network will win the competition.

Many of the technologies he wants to develop in the future rely on artificial intelligence, or more precisely, computing power. In comparison, the cost of supercomputers is relatively high, so it is more cost-effective to build data centers. The idle space can also be rented out to subsidize part of the expenditure.

During this period, he focused most of his energy on the construction of the data center. He came up with the entire construction plan and had to oversee it personally.

Chen Xu came to Yunxu Company, but Luo Xiyun was not there. An employee said she was next door.

Next door are two subsidiaries of Yunxu, one for VR games and the other for VR videos. Luo Xiyun acted quickly and split the two departments as soon as he came back from the electronics exhibition in order to better promote the two businesses.

Luo Xiyun was at the VR video company. He walked over and saw a group of people gathered there.

"What's going on?" he asked.

"Mr. Chen." The employees shouted one after another.

Luo Xiyun was standing in the middle, fiddling with a machine. When he saw him coming, he said happily, "Look, the VR camera is finally made."

"It moves quite quickly." Chen Xu was a little surprised. He walked over and looked at the machine. It was very different from ordinary cameras. It was larger in size and supported by a bracket underneath. The most peculiar thing was that it had a total of three lenses.

The camera looked like it was assembled and was made quite crudely.

This thing is very technical, and the most difficult part is the algorithm. The principle is to use three lenses to capture images from different angles, and then use a special algorithm to convert them into three-dimensional images, which is what you see in VR glasses.

He didn't expect Luo Xiyun to be able to do it. After all, the algorithm was quite complicated, and if he didn't have the playback function, he would definitely not be able to restore it all.

Luo Xiyun took a pair of glasses and said, "This is what I just recorded. What do you think of it?"

Chen Xu put on his glasses, turned on his phone, clicked on the video, and saw Luo Xiyun's image appear in front of him. From his point of view, there were some differences between her and her. But it was not a big problem, and only someone like him who was very familiar with her could see it.

"Not bad." He took off his glasses and said sincerely, "Congratulations, with a camera, you can solve the problem of VR content."

Luo Xiyun was somewhat regretful. "However, this machine is still not perfect. We need more data to continuously adjust the algorithm."

"It's already good to be able to achieve this level." Chen Xu said, "The most important thing now is to increase the content of VR. Only with content can the glasses sell well."

Luo Xiyun also understood this truth, nodded, and said, "I'm already looking for a director and preparing to shoot a short film to test the waters and see how it works."

In two words, it’s still burning money.

However, this is a necessary initial expenditure. Once the sales volume of the Future Vision generation reaches a certain level, it will be easy to make back the money.

Chen Xu changed the subject, "How's the game going?"

Xuyun Company is moving faster in the gaming field. It has already developed a 3D game engine based on VR games. So far, it has developed three small games.

As for large-scale games that can rival triple-A productions, it is still a long way off, and it is estimated that it will require the best-equipped personal computers on the market to run, not to mention the need for a development team.

Speaking of games, Luo Xiyun finally became happier and said, "In the past few days, many game development teams have contacted us. We are in talks now, and several have expressed their intention to cooperate."

If there is really no game development team willing to cooperate, Yunxu Company will have to do it on its own.

Compared with the difficulties in video content, the inherent conditions in the game field are indeed better. People with vision know that VR is one of the future development directions of games.

…………

Chen Xu and Luo Xiyun returned to her office.

She asked, “When will your data center be completed?”

"It will take at least eight months at the fastest," said Chen Xu.

Luo Xiyun adjusted some plans in his mind, and then talked about another matter, "A venture capitalist came to us yesterday and wanted to invest."

Chen Xu asked curiously, "How much is the asking price?"

"One hundred million MiGold, thirty percent of the shares."

Chen Xu laughed, "This is a big mouth for the lion."

Yunxu Company has already invested hundreds of millions of dollars, plus the 500 million borrowed by Luo Xiyun and the investment by Chen Xu, totaling more than 1 billion yuan. The product has been made and its performance is obvious to all, but the valuation is only more than 2 billion yuan. It's too disrespectful.

This first generation of VR glasses also has a lot of black technology, including the chip and its wireless transmission technology.

The glasses are connected to the host computer wirelessly. It does not use Bluetooth. Instead, it uses a new wireless transmission technology with a higher transmission rate, no delay, stable connection, and a maximum connection distance of 50 meters.

These two technical patents alone are worth a lot of money.

Luo Xiyun said, "I will not introduce venture capital until the funds on hand are used up."

"By then, we probably won't need venture capital money." Chen Xu is very confident about the future of Vision Generation. Games are a huge market, and Penguin has truly become a giant by relying on its revenue from games.

Luo Xiyun said, "If we want to open up markets in other countries, we need to introduce some full partners."

Chen Xu nodded in agreement. After all, this was her career, so of course it was her decision.

However, if she continued along the path he had planned, if their relationship was exposed in the future, she might be implicated by him and suppressed abroad.

Luo Xiyun suddenly asked, "Are you free this Sunday?"

Chen Xu said, "As long as you ask me out, I will always have time."

"My grandmother wants to treat you to a meal."

"Meeting the parents, I like it."

PS: It's past one in the middle of the night again. It seems that staying up late has become a habit. Well, it's the end of the month. I'm asking for a wave of monthly votes. There are only a few days left. If you still have monthly votes, please vote quickly. Otherwise, they will expire.
