Chapter 311 Another angle

The mages of the entire Europa League hold regular offline communication meetings approximately once a month.

As for information communication, why not put it online and implement remote video conferencing through the Internet?

Mainly due to the rapid progress of Internet technology in recent years, remote video conferencing has the risk of leakage of meeting content.

Previously, the resident location and related information of Neon's mage were uncovered by hackers and exposed on the Internet.

Caused some trouble for neon.

There are rumors on the Internet that it was Russia.

Therefore, the exchange of some key information must still be done offline.

It's not a distrust of the mage's communication skills, but a serious question about network security.

The entire building and even the surrounding area are in a state of physical disconnection.

Mages in Brussels, such as Jean-Pierre and Jurgen, often come to this building.

Other mages are stationed in different locations according to their missions, and everyone only has the opportunity to come over when there are meetings.

For example, Zheng Li stayed on the edge of Geneva for a long time.

It contains a large amount of confidential data.

Even mages do not have access to all content.

Zheng Li looked at the trick of competing for consciousness in front of him, and his mind had already drifted to hundreds of years ago.

When he was still studying at the Mage Academy, some of his classmates also liked to play similar games.

This is arm-wrestling at the magical level. Arm-wrestling is a comparison of arm strength, which is a comparison of the strength of your consciousness and concentration.

“Welcome all mages, today’s topic is mainly about discussions on recent specific affairs.

The first is London. The anomalies in London are still continuing. We have called you here today in the hope of using your strength to discuss a management model that is suitable for London's current situation.

What happened in London is likely to happen in other cities, and we need to develop a regular response mechanism. "

After England returned to the Europa League, it made a lot of concessions, including the transfer of its monetary sovereignty.

You must know that this is a huge concession for outlying island countries and England, which relies heavily on the financial industry.

When Amerika learned that England was abandoning the pound and using the euro after England returned to the Europa League, officials from the Federal Reserve said it was inconceivable.

From today's perspective, this decision indeed saved their lives.

After the magical events, a lot of money left England.

If England still uses the pound, the pound's exchange rate will skyrocket.

Now it can rely on the financial industry within the Europa Union to maintain a scale that can barely survive.

This is just like if something similar happens in Suzhou, other regions will be able to support Suzhou due to the existence of the Yangtze River Delta metropolitan area.

"I think we need to use tough penalties to warn off these criminals and potential criminals.

Only in this way can they be deterred.

After the magic detection device comes out, we can flexibly adjust the policy. "

This is a cliché.

In the words of the Chinese state, in troubled times, heavy codes are used to stop killing by killing.

The problem with this approach is that it goes against the long-term trend of thought of the European Union.

Too much resistance.

“I don’t have a problem with doing it temporarily.

But I don't think this is a long-term solution.

And if we do this for a long time, we will take a big step back in terms of universal values. "

“At this time, what we need to think about is not universal values, but how to control the situation.

Universal values ​​are just a pursuit. If universal values ​​were really useful, there would not be so many people in London acting recklessly for the sake of power.

You say that a long-term reinstatement of the death penalty would defeat the purpose of abolition, and I agree.

But it will make people more cautious about their actions. "

In the view of abolitionists, the death penalty violates moral values ​​and common sense and cannot prevent crime.

To be more precise, the death penalty is the ultimate irrevocable punishment, and the risk of imposing the death penalty on an innocent person cannot be eliminated.

Those present are divided into two groups. For example, the mages from Western European countries feel that reinstating the death penalty is a last resort.

It may lead to the regression of justice.

Just for a London, the price is a bit high.

Mages from Eastern Europe, yes, there are mages from Eastern Europe now, and they think it's no big deal to bring back the death penalty.

As for Wiles, he just hopes that the situation can be calmed down, and he doesn't mind using any means.

Jurgen stood up and said: “I don’t think it’s appropriate.

The most important point is that without evidence, we cannot find evidence for magic killings.

Are criminals arbitrarily identified without a strong chain of evidence?

The only one who can tell who is the caster is you.

Now it seems that the caster's spellcasting fluctuation is unique, but what if this is just a coincidence?

In the future, you find that someone has the same magical fluctuations, but you wronged a good person because of it. What should you do?

Once the door to the death penalty is opened, there is no chance to go back on it.

And only you can convict others. What a terrible power this is. Can you guarantee that you will always keep your true heart?

My suggestion is not to open this hole.

We think of other ways. "

Jurgen continued: "Wiles, I know how you want England to return to calm as soon as possible.

I can also understand your dissatisfaction with the status quo.

But once this hole opens, are you really ready?

Every suspect who is sentenced to death must be identified by you. In the future, won’t you feel pain and anxiety because of this? "

There was silence after Jurgen finished speaking.

The point he made was from another perspective.

Because there is no evidence for magic killing.

Magic in the real world is not like the colorful lights in the movies.

London spellcasting requires only a spell, plus gestures at best for location.

But you can cast spells in hidden places.

This is more concealed than a sniper shooting at people. The sniper rifle has ballistics and can be traced to its source.

Where does the magic come from?

Fortunately, the "channels" assigned to each person by the Magic Network are different.

A mage injected with magic brain can remember the magic fluctuations at the casting site through the perception area, and then use this to find the caster.

There are only a dozen mages in the Europa League who can spare the time to go to London for support, and the only one who is willing to go is Wiles.

No one is willing to go to the muddy waters of London. If they are killed by an unknown mage on the roadside, it will be a bad luck.

No one wants to take that risk.

More importantly, the real reason behind the magic incident in London has not yet been confirmed, in case a mage of the same level as Merlin is behind it.

If it is such a force majeure, the mages do not want to offend an existence of this level.

Merlin's curse is more terrifying than death.

“We can work with other countries to develop instruments that can monitor magic fluctuations.

Cooperation with China in the field of surveillance has actually eased the situation in London to a certain extent.

If there were instruments that could monitor magic fluctuations and better convict criminals, this would also be an improvement.

While the death penalty doesn't necessarily need to be reinstated, there are other ways we can warn them. "

Under special circumstances, the English government signed a multi-billion-euro deal with Hikvision.

It took three months to complete the establishment of the surveillance system for the entire London.

This surveillance system played a certain role, but it failed to achieve the results expected by London.

"I think this method is more suitable. You can do it this way, but Wiles needs to work hard during this period."

"Or we can seek help from Merlin. Merlin might know what's going on."

"We can't offer any chips that can impress Merlin."

"We just thought we couldn't get it out. How would we know if we didn't talk about it?"

"We're going to take two steps. One side is trying to find a way to communicate with Merlin, and the other side is talking to China and Amerikan.

Whoever has more favorable conditions on both sides will cooperate with him.

Not to mention asking for help, this should be called jointly opening London's magic resources.

They have to give us money. "

Once things are packaged, they sound completely different.

"The next topic is that the number of people in the magic forum is about to exceed one hundred recently.

According to what Merlin mentioned in the magic forum before, after the number of people exceeds one hundred, the magic brain will have new functions.

We need to be prepared in advance to deal with this change. "

Due to the advancement of technology and the passage of time, the number of people in Blue Star who have obtained the magic brain is about to reach one hundred.

...

"Microsoft joins hands with Science and Technology to create the future, and the VR special version of the Windows system will be launched soon.

Large-scale testing is currently underway. Readers who want to experience it can click Read the full text in the lower left corner to download the test package. "

Microsoft has replicated a Windows system in brain-computer connected VR.

In other words, users can use desktop computers in VR.

Of course, limited by hardware facilities, the functions are definitely not as complete as the real Windows system.

But for most users, desktop computers are just for entertainment.

Even if you are working on a Windows system, the office suite is enough.

"The current internal evaluation of the Windows system developed by Microsoft for futureverse has been released.

Everyone agreed that it was more of a gimmick than reality.

Even the VR version of Windows system comes with its own office suite, due to hardware limitations.

Many VBA languages ​​cannot be used, and batch processing with larger amounts of data will cause obvious lags.

Goose Factory's hope of realizing remote working with the help of VR version of Windows system may be in vain. "

Li Miaomiao reported the internal evaluation results to Zheng Li.

The previous trip to Wuzhen was completely different from what Li Miaomiao expected.

I originally thought I could take a walk with Zheng Li in the Jiangnan water town.

The result is endless meals and meetings.

Zheng Li and her moved separately, shuttling between different meetings.

For example, Zheng Li and Pichai discussed their intention to cooperate on AR glasses.

Li Miaomiao will come to Wuzhen with Google to attend a meeting with senior executives to discuss specific ways of cooperation.

Not to mention taking a good stroll in Wuzhen, the two of them can only meet each other between breakfast and meetings.

After the Wuzhen Summit, Li Miaomiao felt that the frequency of meeting Zheng Li was even lower than usual.

"In addition, the first phase of clinical trial data of drugs for treating MCSC I in China has been released.

At present, the first phase of our overseas clinical trials has been approved by the FDA, the European Food and Drug Administration and other agencies.

The drug is expected to achieve domestic sales next year and global sales the year after that. "

The approval process for a drug from clinical trials to official release to patients is very lengthy.

“Our R&D center in Jiangcheng has already started research and development work on autonomous driving of family cars with Dami.

It has now obtained the license plate for on-road testing.

The mid-to-low-end brain-computer connected VR has been finalized and produced, with tens of millions of stocks currently in stock. A new product launch conference will be held in China next month. "

The price of Futureverse before Kechuang Future was priced at more than 10,000 yuan, which is not very friendly to most consumers.

More expensive than ps5.

There have been rumors in the VR industry that when Kechuang will reduce prices in the future, VR will lead to the next explosive point.

You must know that more than 40 million units of brain-computer-connected VRs priced at 10,000 yuan have been sold, let alone brain-computer-connected VRs with a price of 5,000 yuan.

After Byte acquired a small stake in Kechuang Future from Da Mi at a high price, it chose to package pico and sell it to Kechuang Future.

At the same time, the Pico brand will still be retained as a brand specializing in low-end and mid-range products in the future of Kechuang.

The new product that Kechuang will release in the fall is called pico verse i.

Equipped with the previous generation of brain-computer connection technology, the price is as low as more than 5,000 yuan.

Inflation will continue in 2026, and the purchasing power of 5,000 yuan will be about 25% different from that in 2022.

In other words, the selling price of 5,000 yuan is equivalent to the selling price of less than 4,000 yuan in 2022.

The price of more than 5,000 yuan is still a bit high for Chinese consumers, but it has reached an acceptable price.

But for Europe and the United States, this price is completely acceptable.

Even people who rely on government benefits can afford it.

“What’s the specific progress at the Lion City R&D Center?

It's been a long time since I've seen a report from over there.

Li Wanqing did not ask me questions through the internal communication channel. "

Zheng Li asked.

Li Miaomiao glanced at the notebook and then said: "At the last R&D progress communication meeting, Li Wanqing said that they have found the key point to solve the problem of sensory return.

It should be putting the ideas into practice.

I will ask the Lion City side later. "

The research and development task assigned to the Lion City R&D Center is to study how to achieve sensory return.

Brain-computer connection converts brain nerve signals into electrical signals. What they want to do is to convert electrical signals into brain nerve signals.

This is actually virtual reality technology.

The tasks assigned to them are only a very small part of this large research and development goal:

How to make users feel dizzy based on visual effects.

Previously, VR equipment in large shopping malls used visual effects combined with the shaking of seats to create a sense of dizziness.

But if there are no electric seats now, how can we achieve the feeling of vertigo by relying solely on brain-computer connection facilities and visual effects.

This question is very difficult.

It can be said to be the most difficult task in the entire science and technology research and development plan.

It was precisely because this problem was difficult that it was assigned to Li Wanqing, who had studied with Zheng Li for more than two years.
