It is still a bit hot in Hai City in autumn.
The old migrant worker father watched the sun rise from the east, draw an arc, and turn into the scorching sun in the sky today.
He was sweating and his face was full of wrinkles.
He cursed, "What era is this? Gemini still has to queue up in physical stores. I despise it!"
The secretary said, "According to the investigation of the group's marketing department, the twin stores in front have only been rented for three months. Mr. Teng, do you think they are not confident in their products?"
But the sweat on the old father's forehead increased.
How could he not be confident in himself? He was just stingy!
If he wants to take back every A4 paper, how could he waste even a penny?
I'm afraid that in three months, when the Gemini Metaverse is formed, they will no longer need any physical stores! It will be completely virtual sales! The Metaverse is his world, and he can build as many stores as he wants with just a string of code! At that time, it will only take a flick of a finger for him to expand his business to the whole world!
At this moment, the waiter's voice came from the store, "Customer No. 1031, welcome."
The 'old father' was shocked.
It’s finally my turn! I want to carefully and clearly unveil the veil of your twin universe! The migrant worker father and son arrived at the door.
The waiter's avatar bowed slightly. "Dear Mr. Teng Hualong of Penguin Group and Mr. Zhang, Secretary of the President's Office, welcome. In fact, you two can go through a separate passage."
The 'old father' froze.
You can recognize this?
He looked at the secretary again, his expression showing - why is there a separate channel here?
The secretary scratched his head, "Dad, Gemini doesn't mind Chinese people coming with you, but you want to hide your identity first."
Teng Hualong's mouth twitched slightly, and he looked at the waiter, "As customer No. 1031, I ask you to keep my real name confidential!"
The waiter nodded modestly, "I will hide all your identity information. You can come into the store and find our salesperson for business consultation."
The 'old father' entered the store with a sullen look on his face, and then a beautiful receptionist in a short skirt came forward with a smile.
The father and son sat on the soft white sofa in the hall.
The old father also whispered: "The sofa is too hard, bad review."
The young man shook his head helplessly.
"Dear customers, coffee, tea, juice, what would you like?"
The beautiful Gemini receptionist said this, glanced at the teacup with leaves soaked in it, and nodded slightly, "Sorry, you brought your own drinks, I am being rude."
After waiting in line for a whole morning, Teng Hualong, who was already thirsty, had his mouth twitching again. He could only smile awkwardly, picked up the teacup to soak the leaves, and forced a big gulp.
laugh.
Secretary Zhang next to him unscrewed a bottle of Coke and took a big sip with relief.
Legend has it that a bottle of Coke costs 2.5 yuan, but the first sip is worth 2.4 yuan. Nothing is more refreshing than this.
Teng Hualong looked at him with a deathly look.
Secretary Zhang smiled awkwardly, "Dad, carbonated drinks belong to the personality of us young people. I think it's perfect."
The old father let out a shuddering sigh of relief.
He looked at the beautiful saleswoman with a smile and said, "I want your product, right now, and I want to experience it right there and then."
"OK."
Without saying anything more, the beautiful receptionist turned around and took out a silver metal square box from the safe at the back of the store.
She gently placed it on the table in front of Teng Hualong.
Then he reached out and touched the sensor on the top of the box. There was actually an electric motor hidden inside the box. After a sound, it slowly opened, and a small platform rose up, with a pair of white VR glasses placed on top!
"Mystification."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The old father narrowed his eyes, but was immediately attracted by the shape of the glasses.
It is completely white, much wider and thicker than ordinary VR glasses on the market. There are no seams or flaws on the surface. It is simply a perfect work of industrial design.
The old father reached out to grab the glasses, but found them very light. He couldn't even tell what material the device was made of! "If I wear it, it shouldn't feel heavy at all."
The 'old father' looked at it carefully and asked, "Where's the antenna? Where's the network? How is it connected to the brain? Don't tell me that it can only project 3D images with such thin lenses."
The beautiful saleswoman smiled and said, "This is our V01. It has a built-in antenna and uses a public signal for the network. However, we have a unique technology that can greatly increase the efficiency of network transmission. As for the brain connection, it will not hurt your skin and will connect to you through the nerves outside the brain."
"As for what the scene is, you will know once you experience it yourself."
Teng Hualong nodded slowly, looking at the device in his hand in amazement.
Just as he was about to put on the V01 in his hand, he suddenly paused and pointed at another customer in the distance. The guy was wearing a white helmet and lying on a comfortable recliner, seemingly immersed in the Gemini Metaverse.
The 'old father' said: "What is that device? Why does it look more advanced than mine?"
The beautiful saleswoman looked back and said, "Oh, that's right. That's an AR helmet, and yours is a VR pair of glasses. VR stands for virtual reality, and AR stands for augmented reality. There are essential differences between these two technologies. Judging from your age, VR is sufficient to meet your needs, so."
The old father immediately refused, "What are AR and VR?! I often see those things. Don't think that I don't understand them just because they have an R! I want to experience the best!"
The beautiful saleswoman paused, "But the price."
“I have money!”
The old father took out a plastic bag from his arms, and after opening it layer by layer, he found a stack of banknotes inside.
Secretary Zhang beside him nodded secretly.
President Teng is worthy of being President Teng. In such a short time, he has completely immersed himself in the role!
