Li Miaomiao subconsciously said: "Goose Factory will definitely not agree."
Goose Factory is an Internet giant that spans more than two decades from the personal PC era to the mobile Internet era in China. Social networking is their core business.
This becomes clearer as time goes by.
If there is no social interaction in the goose factory, it will become water without a source.
Just like Yahoo, which has lost its dominance in the search engine business, no matter how much cash it has, it will only die slowly.
Zheng Li said calmly: "Just because it's impossible now doesn't mean it's impossible in the future."
"When virtual reality is realized, it will be a whole new era, if this industry is led by science and technology."
"Then Goose Factory has no room for resistance."
In 2020, Goose Factory dared to take action against the Apple tax by promulgating the “Announcement on Regulating Virtual Payment Behavior in Official Accounts”.
It is hoped that this will eliminate the 30% Apple tax.
But if it had been before 2011, Goose Factory would never have dared to impose the Apple tax.
At that time, WeChat was still fighting with MiLiao, and the Internet social communication industry was far from a foregone conclusion.
The same principle applies to virtual reality. If Goose Factory was directly suppressed at the beginning, they would not have many ways to resist this dimensionality reduction blow.
Looking at the laughing and joyful couples around him, Li Miaomiao felt regretful about why he had to mention work.
But it's already begun, and it's rare to see Zheng Li having such a lively conversation.
She had no choice but to answer: "The Goose Factory's shareholding in Kechuang Future is almost the same as ours."
"When the technology matures in the future, it will be difficult for us to bypass the goose factory, unless we start a new business."
Zheng Li only mentioned one thing: "The technology patents are still in the hands of the parent company, and what Kechuang will obtain in the future is technology authorization."
Li Miaomiao quickly reacted: "So when the patent expires, we can definitely discuss the reallocation of shares."
"Not to mention that as long as the subsequent supporting virtual reality technology is in the hands of Kechuang Biotech, the rice and goose factories will have to accept our redistribution of share ratios."
Ren Yu mentioned before that Black Shark transformed into the development of supporting products for brain-computer connection VR in order to avoid this kind of thing.
But their little thoughts are in vain in front of the mage.
Moreover, Goose Factory itself does not have the genes to make hardware.
The mutual conversion between olfactory nerve signals and electrical signals cannot be successfully developed with a lot of resources.
Taking into account the balance between cost and user experience, the development of an olfactory simulator that reaches more than 80% is no less difficult than an artificial intelligence that can pass the Turing test.
A pure olfactory simulator, or later used as a component of a virtual reality device, will not have a market if the price is too high.
As early as 2017, a company in Valencia claimed at the time that it could convey up to ten flavors to VR users.
The ten scents include cake, mojito, anchovy and wetlands.
However, the price of this product is 1,500 yuan, and only the smell simulator part costs 1,500 yuan. How can there be a market for it?
Li Miaomiao continued: "For Goose Factory, they have to compromise."
"Because the real core technology is in our hands, even if it is a VR system, we still have 40% of the shares."
"Compared to breakthroughs in hardware technology, the difficulty of system development is much lower."
There are many technical difficulties to overcome in the implementation of virtual reality.
In 2016, the first year of VR, overcoming these problems sounded too far away, but it is already 2024.
There are relatively mature solutions for visual effects, eye tracking, wireless transmission, tactile feedback, etc.
Eye tracking technology has been completely solved through Kechuang Biotech’s brain-computer connection solution.
The only difference is that the electrical signal is converted into a neural signal and the human brain receives the signal.
And this is precisely the strength of Kechuang Biotechnology.
From the time when Li Miaomiao was preparing to establish Ke Chuang Future to the official launch of Ke Chuang Future's first product, her understanding of the industry was constantly deepening.
According to Li Miaomiao, the first generation of true virtual reality will only take five years to come to fruition.
For an individual, five years is a long time, but for a company, five years is just a blink of an eye.
"Considering the market foundation and market reputation that the futureverse series has laid for us, as long as Goose Factory is willing to compromise, we don't need to develop virtual reality equipment alone."
“And it’s only natural that VR devices have built-in communications technology.”
"No matter how difficult the decision is, Goose Factory will gradually compromise."
Li Miaomiao said as he walked:
“And a very important point is that Goose Factory cannot occupy the dominant position in social communication in the virtual reality world, but their dominance on the mobile terminal and PC terminal cannot be shaken.”
Even if virtual reality technology comes to fruition, people will not be able to live only in a virtual world.
Computers may be replaced, but mobile phones will not be replaced in a short time.
Virtual reality can achieve a high enough degree of reality and can directly supply energy to the human body through nutrient solution. People will still have demand for mobile phones.
In the personal computer market, which is most likely to be affected, capital has already begun to respond in advance.
The great success of brain-computer-connected VR and the sudden rise of scientific and innovative organisms have led analysts in the capital market to be optimistic about the prospects of virtual reality.
Everyone agrees that virtual reality will be implemented within ten years at most.
The optimism of virtual reality was followed by the pessimism of the personal PC market, and Microsoft's market value continued to decline.
Microsoft missed the mobile Internet era, and the Symbian system failed miserably in the mobile phone market.
Now it seems they are going to miss the metaverse era again.
Analysts have repeatedly downgraded their internal assessments of Microsoft.
Zheng Li nodded and said: "Goose Factory can be a specialized entertainment service provider, which is what they are good at."
Although Zheng Li himself has basically never played the krypton gold game produced by Goose Factory, he can't stand the people around him who always make complaints about Goose Factory.
There are many Chinese people in the Lion City R&D Center. Everyone knows that after Kechuang Biotech cooperated with Goose Factory, when the matter was discussed internally, Goose Factory's evaluation was all about making players earn money by any means.
"Don't think about it. You have a lot of time to work, but you don't have many opportunities to go out and play." Li Miaomiao called to Zheng Li and her to go forward.
"There will be fireworks later, let's go and get a seat in advance!"
Before departure, Li Miaomiao specifically contacted Universal Studios in the Lion City through the channel of Science and Technology Biotechnology, asking them to prepare the highest-standard fireworks show.
Any additional costs incurred will be borne by her.
The annual meeting of Kechuang Bio-Singapore R&D Center has been held at Universal Studios more than once.
Therefore, there are special business channels to connect with Universal Studios.
...
"Didn't anything happen to you and Zheng Li?" Li Shuyao was surprised when she received a call from Li Miaomiao at 11pm.
Li Miaomiao shook his head and said, "I think too much. I'm in a good state right now."
"I don't think Zheng Li has any other ideas at all. He completely regards me as a friend and partner."
"In this case, there is no need for me to act rashly until there are no competitors."
"And my daily life is already fulfilling enough without adding another relationship."
Li Shuyao pointed out: "Then you won't fall in love anymore?"
"Just follow Zheng Li all the time? But Zheng Li really gave me a lot, so it's not a loss."
Tanisode
The shares that Zheng Li gave to Li Miaomiao were about one point.
When Kechuang Biotech went public, it allotted shares to its executives. At that time, Zheng Li also gave his share of the allotment to Li Miaomiao.
Therefore, her shareholding ratio is much larger than that of Cheng Gang.
Calculated based on Kechuang Biotechnology’s market value of RMB 3 trillion, Li Miaomiao’s net worth is around RMB 30 billion.
After Kechuang Biotech went public, Chinese media have been comparing Li Miaomiao and Peng Lei.
Because the two of them also served as senior executives in giants, and then achieved financial freedom after going public.
"Tell me what happened to you today?" Li Shuyao said I want to hear gossip written all over her face.
Although before Zheng Li became famous, Li Shuyao had heard of this person more than once.
When Li Miaomiao and Zheng Li went to Suzhou to start a business, Li Shuyao chatted with Li Miaomiao for a long time and advised her to be cautious.
At that time, Li Shuyao felt that Zheng Li was unreliable and thought that he could succeed if he had the skills.
The results told her that if you are skilled enough, you can really do whatever you want.
Zheng Li is now the richest man in China, a myth of wealth created by technology.
Li Shuyao became even more interested in the gossip about the richest man.
There have been various speculations about Zheng Li's relationship status on Chinese social media.
After hearing what Li Miaomiao said, Li Shuyao shook her head: "Didn't you hold his hand while watching the movie?"
"If you are embarrassed, then at least hold on to Zheng Li."
"In a place like a movie theater, there are all couples around, and the atmosphere is such that you can actually get closer."
As a senior emotional expert, Li Shuyao is familiar with this basic routine.
"Don't you make it clear by your actions that we are just friends?"
Li Miaomiao said coquettishly: "I feel embarrassed, and I think this state is quite good."
"If Zheng Li directly rejects me, we won't even be friends."
"So forget it."
Li Shuyao: "This is your business, and your idea is right. It's not impossible to be steady."
"After all, there are no competitors now."
"If a competitor appears, it will be too late by then."
Li Miaomiao: "There's nothing to regret. There are so many beauties in the Lion City R&D Center and Zheng Li doesn't like any of them."
"Zheng Li is very likely to have prosopagnosia. I will have to find an opportunity to ask him next time."
"I always thought about asking, but I forgot every time I met him."
Li Shuyao smiled exaggeratedly on the other end of the phone: "Hahaha, it's indeed possible."
"You don't need to directly ask him if he has prosopagnosia, but take pictures of beautiful women and ask him which one looks better."
"I think it's progress for you to go out on a date with Zheng Li to watch a movie."
"Zheng Li must be interested in you, otherwise he wouldn't go to the movies with you."
"It's still my previous logic. Zheng Li has very little emotional needs."
"Perhaps in Zheng Li's understanding, your relationship is already on a higher level than friends, and his emotional needs only need to stay at this level of relationship."
"So you have to learn to guide."
Li Miaomiao was very curious: "How to guide?"
Li Shuyao smiled and said: "Don't ask me, I don't know how. I never take the initiative to chase boys."
"You can try to guide Zheng Li to do something with you that you have never done before, such as skydiving or surfing."
"Extreme sports can stimulate the secretion of adrenaline..."
Before Li Shuyao could finish speaking, Li Miaomiao interrupted: "Zheng Li will definitely not go. Zheng Li will not participate in any activities that are even remotely dangerous."
"When Zheng Li went to the Lion City back then, he always took a specially customized cruise ship to go to the Lion City."
"When I asked him why he didn't fly, he said that if there was an accident on the plane, there would be no way to escape, but if there was an accident on a boat, there would be a possibility of survival."
"You have to know that chartering a cruise ship is much more expensive than chartering a plane. Not to mention things like skydiving, Zheng Li will definitely not go."
...
After the date with Li Miaomiao, Zheng Li did not go back to the Lion City R&D Center. Instead, he returned to the penthouse apartment he bought in Wallich Family.
Because Li Miaomiao was only willing to send him here and tell him not to go back to work.
Later, on the way back after it was over, Li Miaomiao also chatted with him about the problem of connecting brain-computer prostheses.
Kechuang Biotechnology has designated some cooperative manufacturers who are responsible for the technical implementation of brain-computer connected prostheses, but hardware production still has to be outsourced to mature medical device companies.
Then the medical device company is responsible for sales and so on.
Kechuang Biotech mainly produces brain-computer prostheses for bionic hands. Good products of this type used to cost hundreds of thousands of yuan.
After Kechuang Biotech enters the market, the lowest price for brain-computer connected prosthetics will be around 300,000 yuan.
This price is unaffordable for most ordinary families.
Li Miaomiao proposed to develop a donation plan for teenagers from poor families who need prosthetics.
This prevents these teenagers from being unable to afford brain-computer connected prosthetics due to family reasons.
Zheng Li agreed to Li Miaomiao's plan after simply listening to it, because he was indeed not short of money.
Zheng Li thinks it's good to be able to help people in need.
Back home, Zheng Li felt that he could end up in more ways, not just through the magic forum and magic coin system.
Magic could definitely have more of a presence.
Rather than letting Blue Star's entertainment companies define what magic is, it would be better for him to define it himself.
But the problem is that the current biological cloud is only a rudimentary artificial intelligence, and it is difficult to simulate more characters.
Moreover, the clones on Clark Island need to occupy most of the computing power of the primary artificial intelligence.
Zheng Li realized that he had to think carefully about how he would end up.
The cloud brain service he provided in the magic forum has not been purchased so far.
Zheng Li plans to put some new products on the shelves.
He plans to specially prepare some carbon-based life span-increasing drugs, put them on the magic forum, and exchange them through magic coins.
He didn't believe that the Blue Star people could remain calm in the face of increased life span.
Originally, Zheng Lili founded an academic magazine himself, and its standards for collecting papers were higher than those of "SCIENCE" and "Nature".
But the problem is that he is only one person and cannot make a judgment on the authenticity of all papers.
The mage is not omnipotent, and he cannot make accurate judgments on any field of knowledge.
So the plan was shelved.
"If I want to get more involved in magical events, what would be a better way?"
Zheng Li planned to look for information to see if there was any information that could bring him inspiration.
