Every technological advancement in human history solves some problems and then causes other problems.
Technology is never a panacea.
The emergence of the Internet has changed the way information is transmitted and has greatly changed the traditional business model of mankind.
What follows is a series of problems, such as data leaks, invasion of personal privacy by giants, the spread of false information, etc.
In the past, the spread of false information most affected people around the source, and the speed of information circulation was still very slow.
In the Internet age, any piece of false news can become the collective memory of thousands of people.
From the perspective of Goose Factory, they integrate their own services and present them in an urban manner.
But for the majority of users, everyone will subconsciously think that the hype of virtual real estate may bring new oppression to ordinary people in the future.
Online public opinion was discussed very quickly, and most of it was negative.
The navy forces directly or indirectly controlled by Goose Factory began to clear up the market.
The most common saying is:
"If you don't like it, just buy it and it's over. It's different from real-world real estate. Not everyone needs it."
In fact, not everyone needs real estate in the real world. If it is not bundled with too many things, many people can rent a house for a lifetime.
The negative impact of public opinion cannot stop capital from voting with its feet.
After the release of Goose Factory's latest Huanyu-Pengcheng, the stock price has soared, rising by more than 20% in just two weeks.
After the first batch of virtual properties was released, they were sold out in less than two hours.
Not only Chinese people are configuring virtual real estate, but there are also many overseas cryptocurrency players.
Virtual currency players are born to chase risks.
The previously very rudimentary virtual land could be auctioned for a complete set of data fields.
Not to mention that Goose Factory provides a complete virtual city solution, and it has already been implemented.
At the end of 2017, Ded held its first virtual land auction at the terraform event.
At that time, the starting price for each piece of land was 20 yuan.
Five years have passed, and in 2021, the average transaction price of these virtual lands exceeded 6,000 yuan, an increase of more than 300 times.
In November 2021, Republic Realm purchased a property in The Sandbox for 4.3 million yuan.
Metaverse real estate is actually an increasingly popular trend overseas.
A lot of hot money is pouring into this field.
The fate of Goose Factory, joining this track, completely ignited virtual real estate.
As for the previous major virtual real estate developers, it may not be good news.
Previously, virtual real estate was mainly played by four companies: Ded, Sandbox, and Somovoxels.
Sandbox accounts for more than 60% of the market share, and their selling price for each piece of virtual land exceeded 10,000 yuan as early as 2022.
After the release of Huanyu-Pengcheng, the price of virtual land in Sandbox plummeted, with a drop of more than 50%.
If it is directly cut in the middle, the virtual real estate on the other three platforms cannot escape the fate of being cut in the middle.
Of course, what followed was the announcement by overseas Internet giants to enter this market, among which FB, now called META, was the most eager.
Zuckerberg announced that day that META would also build a virtual city, and they planned to choose among New York, Los Angeles and Chicago.
“New York or Los Angeles? Or do we create a completely virtual city?
Virtual real estate is a great opportunity for us and we need to launch the product as soon as possible. "
“I think New York is more appropriate, New York is a well-deserved symbol of American culture.
As the first work of META virtual real estate, we need the best cities as representatives. "
"What about the platform? Quest or Futureverse?"
"On both platforms, I mainly focus on futureverse."
One day later they decided to create a virtual city - New York.
People who are familiar with FB’s development history will know that they either copy or acquire good business models on the market.
The classic case of FB plagiarizing other people’s business models dates back to 2012, when there was an app called Snapchat that disappeared after reading.
Snapchat had tens of millions of users at the time, and FB spent twelve days copying the company's products and making almost identical products.
Even at that time, FB did not shy away from plagiarizing other people’s products. The person in charge of plagiarized products said directly on FB:
How this product was developed in 12 days by a team of product and engineers, with Zuckerberg himself writing the code and voicing the voice.
Do you have a sense of déjà vu similar to the Goose Factory?
The average usage time of Tik Tok in Amerikan has exceeded that of all applications under META.
META also wants to copy Tik Tok’s model, but the problem is that it can’t do it.
They launched Reels short video application, but there is no sign of it being able to compete with Tik Tok.
In the past, big companies copied the ideas and products of start-up companies, but now it is the turn of big companies to copy each other.
After the news that META planned to develop a virtual city came out, the stock price rose sharply.
Even for META, the biggest advantage of their virtual real estate is that they don't have to pay so much 'tax' to the New York City Government.
They can keep the profits themselves.
Of course, new problems will also arise for latecomers, that is, it is not that easy to discuss the copyright of architecture.
When Goose Factory went to negotiate, things went smoothly.
But now that virtual real estate has made companies realize the value, owners of architectural copyrights will no longer grant authorization easily.

"You should be able to see the magic forum, right? Including the specific content in the forum?"
It has been a month since Li Miaomiao obtained the magic brain. Although Zheng Li customized the magic brain for Li Miaomiao to a certain extent, the time it takes to adapt to the needs of the magic brain will not change.
"Today I will mainly teach you how to use magic, some very basic spells."
Only Li Miaomiao in the entire Blue Star could have this kind of treatment, and Merlin personally taught magic.
Li Miaomiao replied: "I can see it.
But the content was too technical, and I couldn’t understand what other mages were saying at all.
Precision electroweak data support weakly coupled Higgs sectors as the mechanism responsible for electroweak symmetry breaking.
How to construct a natural framework in which low-energy supersymmetry is a weakly coupled fundamental scalar?
I know what each word means, but together, I have no idea what they are talking about? "
Zheng Li smiled and said: "According to my understanding, all the mages here are either Nobel Prize winners or Fields Medal winners."
Because of the standards set by Merlin in the Magic Forum, the discussions in this forum are comparable to the top Zhihu.
It involves some theoretical discussions, and everyone is willing to speak. Of course, such speeches will have certain reservations.
Li Miaomiao's eyes were dull: "I feel like a scumbag like me is a bit out of place here.
Is this a world I can stay in?
What about the mage from China? China seems to have only one Nobel Prize winner. "
“Academicians, basically all the demon brains in China are academicians, at least the ones I’ve met are all academicians.
For example, those who often come to meet me offline are academicians in the field of biological sciences. "
Li Miaomiao sighed: "After all, I am the one who has climbed higher."
Zheng Li: "You can learn now.
After using Magic Brain, your thinking activity, logical thinking ability and other abilities will be greatly improved.
Now let’s choose a direction and start from the beginning. The academician can’t guarantee it, but Qing Qian should be fine. "
Li Miaomiao waved her hand and said: "Forget it, I don't like science, and I'm not interested in it.
Otherwise, I would not have chosen liberal arts as a branch of arts and sciences.
If I had chosen science at that time, I would have enrolled in the School of Biology and could have gone all the way to graduate with a Ph.D. "
Zheng Li: "You need to decide these by yourself, now we are ready to start teaching some basic magic.
Including magic of various elemental attributes, refined control of kinetic energy, etc. "
"The specific time to master it may depend on your ability to understand. It can take up to a week at the earliest."
This was already an overestimation of Li Miaomiao. After a week passed, Li Miaomiao only mastered the most basic spells.
And it can only move in one direction.
For example, if there is a water glass on the table, she can only make the water glass move in a straight line.
Not to mention the complicated operation of moving the water cup to the person's mouth and then automatically pouring the water into it.
It can't even control the water cup to perform curved movements on a flat surface.
Zheng Li originally came to teach her in person, but after two days of teaching, she couldn't bear it anymore.
Forget it, artificial intelligence will do it, Zheng Li thought.
Zheng Li was afraid that he couldn't bear to give Li Miaomiao a sobering spell.
"Okay, you're doing well. If we maintain this progress, you will be able to learn most of the basic mages in about five years."
Correct
Li Miaomiao slumped down instantly: "Five years? It seems that I really don't have the talent to become a mage."
In fact, Li Miaomiao didn't master it that slowly. It's just that she wanted to spend more time with Zheng Li, so she wasn't very motivated to learn magic.
In her opinion, it was a rare opportunity to be alone with Zheng Li and do something together.
This was something Zheng Li didn't realize.
"It's okay. Talent is not judged by the speed of mastering magic, but by the intensity of spell casting after you learn it, and whether you can innovate on the existing magic."
Magic and mathematics are similar. It does not mean that you are talented if you learn quickly or score high in exams.
In the field of mathematical research, the most important thing is never the ability to solve problems.
The public's perception of mathematicians may be whether they can master it quickly or whether they can get high scores in exams.
But in fact, many masters in the field of mathematics are not good at this, but have amazing endurance.
Be able to find a direction that interests you and is valuable, and stick to it in obscurity.
"Thank you for comforting me. In fact, it's okay not to have talent.
I learned early on that people are inherently flawed and need to be able to forgive themselves for their ordinariness. "
"The mentality is good, we still maintain the progress of one hour every day, and I will adjust the study plan appropriately.
All you need is the magic of self-preservation. "
