Chapter 968 Price and safety

Zhou Jiangping and a few professionals from Lehui looked at the blueprint on Chen Mo’s computer screen in shock.

This was because … What the blueprint depicted was a piece of equipment that the world had been guessing for many years but had never really developed A VR gaming pod that uses neural connection technology.

“The current VR technology had reached a bottleneck, just like how the steam engine could not reach the efficiency of the internal combustion engine no matter how much it was improved. ”

“If the current VR technology wanted to be improved further, the most they could do was to improve the accuracy of the images, do a few more character movements, and update the sensory equipment to make the sense of the body more realistic … ”

“However, no matter how much he improved, it was impossible to reach the level of neural connection. ”

“Chen Mo’s new VR gaming pod blueprint was like a transformation from a steam engine to an internal combustion engine. It changed the fundamental principles of VR gaming pods, and opened up a new VR gaming era. ”

“Zhou Jiangping suppressed his excitement and asked,””””President Chen, let’s not talk about the cost of this thing first. I want to ask first, can this thing … Work normally?”” ”

“Chen Mo “”==”” ”

“””Ahem.”” Zhou Jiangping coughed twice.””Don’t worry, Mr. Chen. I’ll take a good look at this blueprint.”” ”

“Chen Mo sat down on the sofa,””””It’s fine, I’m not in a hurry. Take your time. “” ”

“Zhou Jiangping and a few Lehui’s technicians gathered around the computer screen and carefully looked at the entire design drawing, including the various components and principles of the new VR gaming pod. ”

“After watching for about half an hour, Zhou Jiangping sat on the sofa next to him, still a little dazed. ”

“””How is it?”” Chen Zhao asked. ”

“Zhou Jiangping was obviously very excited, but he still maintained his calm.””””In terms of production, yes! It was just expensive. A few of them used the most cutting-edge technology, such as neural connection technology, life safety system, and so on. Especially the neural connection technology, which basically uses the most advanced technology at this stage. “” ”

“””But there’s a problem. At the current stage, we can make the kind of electrodes that can monitor, guide, and input brain signals that you want, but … The current level of technology can’t figure out how to analyze the collected brain signals. This device was also the same. Without the corresponding analysis program, even if the brain signal was collected, how could it be converted into a program signal and transmitted to the host? And how do you transmit the host’s signal to the players?”” ”

“Chen Mo smiled,””don’t worry about that. I have the analysis program too. I’ve already applied for patents for the hardware and software.”” Now I’m thinking of making a sample and estimating the price. “” ”

“Zhou Jiangping still couldn’t believe it, but seeing Chen Mo’s confidence, he was almost convinced. ”

“””In terms of production cost, each should be around 300000 to 400000. If we lower the cost, it should be at least 250000, which is still much more expensive than most of the current VR gaming pods. However, I don’t think the price is a problem. After all, this thing represents the future direction of development. Moreover, there are many rich people in this world. “” ”

“Chen Mo was deep in thought, hmm, 300 thousand … ”

The price was unexpectedly high.

“The cost of the original VR game cabin was between 50000 and 200000, and it could not be promoted on a large scale, let alone the new game cabin that cost 250000. ”

“Of course, the so-called “”large-scale promotion”” was mainly to allow this thing to enter thousands of households and the working class. If only the rich were considered, this potential market was still quite large. In other words, at this stage, it could only be a toy for the rich, and it couldn’t even fully replace the old VR gaming pods. ”

“Chen Mo thought for a moment.””If that’s the case, then we won’t lower the price. We’ll go for a higher end. After all, to the rich, there’s not much difference between two hundred fifty thousand and three hundred thousand.”” ”

“Zhou Jiangping nodded.””I think so too. This thing can’t be sold at a cabbage price. For the working class, even if it’s cheaper by 20000 to 30000 Yuan, they still think it’s expensive.”” At this stage, we can only go to the high-end market. However, this thing is a product of the most advanced technology, and it monopolizes the market. No matter how you sell it, you’ll make a huge profit. “” ”

“””I’m fine.”” Chen Mo tapped the table.””We can handle this level of hardware, right?”” ”

“Zhou Jiangping nodded,””sure.”” Because this VR gaming pod is equivalent to bringing our cutting-edge technology into the practical stage in advance, which is equivalent to a small leap. In terms of hardware, since we can build it, we can definitely repair it. However …”” ”

“Zhou Jiangping paused and asked,””what I’m worried about is the risk of this thing.”” This new VR gaming pod can directly transmit information to the player’s brain and nerves. If something happens, will it cause damage to the player’s brain?”” ”

“””Well,”” Chen Mo explained,””the game Committee has already arranged for experts and technical staff to evaluate the safety of this thing. If it doesn’t pass, it’s not going to be sold.”” However, it shouldn’t be a big problem, because this device isn’t invasive, which means that there’s no need for any ‘intubation behind the head’, so the safety is relatively higher. “” ”

“””The human brain has a very strong protective mechanism. The connection between the brain and the nerves is carried out in the player’s half-hypnotized state. The game cabin itself will also monitor the data transmitted to the player and the player’s physical condition in real time. If there is any abnormality, the consciousness connection will be immediately disconnected. For the players, it will at most be like having a nightmare, or even less frightening than a nightmare.”” ”

“””For this, the game Committee will arrange for corresponding clinical trials to estimate the highest terror points of this thing. However, we don’t need to worry about that. We don’t have that power. “” ”

“Zhou Jiangping nodded.””Okay, it seems that I’ve been overthinking. How about this, I’ll arrange for a sample to be produced immediately. It should be done soon.”” ”

“Chen Zhao seemed to have thought of something and said,””””By the way, take a good look at some of the additional functions, such as the life support system, the video signal output system for live broadcast, and so on. There might be a special version for special groups of people or special departments, so we have to consider it in advance. “” ”

“Zhou Jiangping nodded,””sure, no problem”” ”

……

“Zhou Jiangping left in joy. To him, so what if this thing was expensive? There would definitely be rich people who would buy it. Especially for those rich people who were old, weak, and ill, this thing was equivalent to a Second Life, so it was impossible for it to have no market. ”

“Chen Mo’s idea was much simpler. After all, the price would drop after he unlocked a few more technology points. He would sell a batch of them to scam the rich first and let the players get used to it, then mass produce them later. ”

“Of course, it couldn’t be said to be a scam. After all … The earlier you buy, the earlier you enjoy. ”
