Chapter 101 Real scene of helpless sadness.
"Yes, as long as the design we make public in VR simulation, we have the ability to restore more than 80% of it."
"But what we need to decide now is whether we should add new material to restore the original appearance of the mural, or repair it on the existing basis like we would a disfigured patient."
Jia Wenyan: "I think this is an issue we need to think carefully about, and that's why we are starting this live broadcast today."
"Restoring the past can help people see the true face of history, but it will also add a lot of things that don't belong to them."
【Then let’s repair it based on the existing foundation. 】
【One more thing, Director Jia also said that the restoration of cultural relics is like facial restoration during plastic surgery. Even if the "doctor" has good skills, there is no way to leave no traces. In this case, why not choose a more natural approach? 】
【Add one, and to be fair, even if the newly added materials are repaired perfectly at the moment, it will be difficult to ensure the integrity. What if it falls off after being glued on for a long time? 】
[I agree. I have seen a woman whose breasts sagged or even fell off after breast augmentation. That scene was really scary.]
[The most difficult part after restoration is maintenance, so it is better to keep it as natural as possible. 】
Jia Wenyan: "We will have to make a decision after a rigorous discussion on the specific situation. However, in the meantime, our Yong'an Museum will provide VR theme equipment related to the restoration of Mogao Grottoes at Yong'an Amusement Park and other agency outlets. After reference, everyone can vote on the official social platform of Mogao Grottoes."
"We will discuss and research the most reasonable repair plan based on the final voting results."
After Jia Wenyan finished speaking, she and Dong Lele began to introduce the VR design of their Yong'an Amusement Park in the live broadcast room.
…
A week later, Lu Ranran, who was the first to get the "Mogao Grottoes" themed VR glasses from the Yong'an Museum, live-recorded his unboxing video amid the envious gazes of his university classmates.
"Hello, everyone. This is Lu Ranran, the beautiful lady who got the first batch of VR glasses from Yong'an Museum. What you are about to see is a beautiful lady who can enjoy this VR sightseeing experience by herself in the bookshelf."
[Hey, hey, hey, kid with poor sense of direction, please hurry up. ]
[Beautiful lady, if you have finished reading this, can you sell me a used one? I want one too.]
[Wait, as Lu Da's beautiful roommate, I am willing to pay for a month's worth of milk tea to purchase the first borrowing right.]
…
In the familiar Dingding software, Lu Ranran, who was sharing her joy with the whole class through the live camera, was opening the express package with a "method" that was as sincere as if she didn't recognize anyone.
"Oh my God, we must be careful when opening packages."
Obviously, Lu Ranran was an "experienced online shopper" who was used to violent demolitions on weekdays, but at this moment, he knew clearly how popular the things in his hands were. In the end, he couldn't help but keep the secret in front of the envious eyes of others.
The cause of all this is the VR glasses launched by the Yong'an Museum.
As a major change in the development of science and technology in the new era, VR technology has become an area that many media and game production companies have to pay attention to and involve.
Today, this technology is no longer limited to "tech enthusiasts", but has truly begun to be available to consumers. It has even become the "only choice" for bundled gifts for many high-end mobile phones.
However, due to product costs and the uneven production of VR content, many people, even if they have purchased VR equipment, find it difficult to escape the fate of leaving it gathering dust at home.
Even in this era when VR technology has become increasingly sophisticated, most people can still only experience truly high-quality VR in public places such as amusement parks and science and technology museums.
But the VR glasses launched by the Yong'an Museum this time are a complete exception.
As a commemorative product launched by the Yong'an Museum, this pair of VR glasses has only one theme that can be experienced, and that is the "Mogao Grottoes" theme that Jia Wenyan had previously announced that she would participate in.
Guided by the lenses in the VR glasses, users will experience the perspectives of "tourist" and "restorer".
The tourists can use VR glasses to see the "real scene" of the Mogao Grottoes, which has been restored.
The restorer's perspective is to start from the damaged murals and repair the entire historical monument bit by bit.
These two perspectives are placed in different styles of VR glasses.
This is also the only theme that can be played on these commemorative VR glasses.
The Yong'an Museum has maximized the "cost-effectiveness optimization" of the entire VR glasses' screening effect by limiting the screening content.
And among these VR glasses, there is also a "hidden limited edition".
This limited edition VR glasses not only has a "mural paint" that is completely different from the other two models, but also has an exclusive "time evolution mode".
In this VR projection mode, people can clearly feel the changes that have taken place in Mogao Grottoes since its inception.
Looking back, once these three different models were unveiled at the press conference, they instantly attracted the attention of cultural tourism and technology enthusiasts.
It's not just because this is "another masterpiece" of Yong'an, the most popular cultural and tourism unit at the moment, but more importantly, their picture quality has exceeded people's imagination.
Even these "castrated versions" of "exclusive glasses" were given a very attractive price.
For this reason, ever since the Yong'an Museum announced the launch of the products, there has been a rush to buy them all over the Internet.
From migrant workers scrambling to grab tickets for the Spring Festival travel rush to star-chasers going to concerts.
Netizens used their various "weird" experiences on the Internet to prove their preparations for this ticket grab.
Many netizens even joked that those who can own this set of VR glasses as soon as they are released are either rich or chosen by God.
Many people have even started a second-hand market for VR glasses on the Internet.
The price even reached two to three times the pre-sale price. Later, the Yong'an Museum published a public statement saying that it would replenish the stock after the first round of sales in a short time, which prevented this rush to buy from becoming another "vicious scalper case" in the Internet age.
But even though they have curbed the speculation in the scalper market by replenishing stocks as quickly as possible, it still cannot change the public's desire to buy this batch of VR glasses from the Yong'an Museum.
Many bloggers have even said that they will explain their experiences to everyone as soon as possible.
And Lu Ranran was one of the first lucky ones.
Although she had no way of knowing for sure whether the VR glasses she snapped up were for tourists, restorers, or a version of historical evolution.
But no matter which one it is, it cannot change the fact that she is one of the few lucky ones in the class, or even in the whole school.
In the envious eyes of her classmates, she started a live broadcast using the class group's Ding Ding. Even her counselor and teachers of other subjects joined in her live broadcast room.
What is it?
【Tourists, restorers, and time. 】
【I want to see tourists. Tourists have the best sightseeing experience.】
[What tourists? Of course, we need restorers. That is the best perspective to follow the simulated restoration process. ]
[So, no one among you wants to take a look at the hidden version, which represents the exclusive romance of the passage of time? ]
The students in the Ding Ding group were restless. Even though everyone was discussing the topics they wanted to see, it didn't take long before the camera image was filled with the "black" VR glasses in the express box.
Compared to their own preferences, they are more concerned about everything Lu Ranran sees through the glasses.
The black color represents the "Restorer" theme.
The beginning of the picture is the "Mogao Grottoes Scenic Area" which is the most commonly seen one.
Lu Ranran simultaneously projected the images he saw in the VR glasses onto the screen.
Huge Buddha statues and various murals stand on the screen.
Although such images are far from the immersive sense of presence when using glasses.
However, the teachers and students on Ding Ding were immediately shocked by the highly restored "scene" of the Mogao Grottoes in front of them.
【Comrades, I am in Mogao Grottoes now, and I tell you that the pictures in the video are not just the murals and Buddha statues that are made to look like each other.】
[The Yongan Museum even reproduced the stone textures on the surrounding stone walls. ]
[Oh my god, is the degree of restoration so high? ]
[Really? Even the cracks in the stones are the same. Can current VR technology already complete such high-quality modeling in a short time? ]
[I heard that Zhenxin Animation also participated in the modeling this time. 】
[Oh my god, my appreciation for Zhenxin Animation's technical capabilities has suddenly reached a new level.]
[Come to think of it, after all, it is the production company that created The Story of the Stone and the New Journey to the West animation. ]
[Speaking of this reliance, does it mean that we at Donghuang will also be able to have animations that depict real-life scenes like those in Neon? ]
[Really, I always wanted to see those fantastic scenes before, but now that I have grown up, it is really hard for me to resist the temptation of "pilgrimage"]
The students were discussing in the group, but soon they were attracted by everything shown on the screen.
The picture on the computer screen jumped from the initial "current situation" to its former intact state, and when everyone was marveling at this wonder that represented the highest technical level of Donghuang carving, it switched to a scene that made people extremely sad.
Everyone in the group was praising the camera footage, but their praises were interrupted by the uninvited guests who followed.
They watched with their own eyes as groups of uninvited guests moved and even destroyed the stone statues in the caves. Even the murals on the stone walls were dug up and stolen by those with ulterior motives.
