Chapter 213
Chapter 210
In the large conference room of the Osborn Building, a new product launch conference about virtual devices is underway.
Whether it is the cooperation between Osborn and the Fantastic Four or the emergence of new virtual devices, it is extremely eye-catching, so even if the Osborn Group arranges the largest conference room, the venue is still packed.
In the middle of the meeting room, there is a virtual reality device developed and produced by Reed Richards.
Unlike the virtual helmet made by Kraft, the virtual device made by Reid is in the shape of an ecological cabin.
It’s not that Reed Richards can’t make a helmet-type virtual device, nor is it to differentiate from Dreamland’s products, it’s just that Reed can’t control the price of a helmet-type virtual device to that of the Dreamland version. Same.
Kraft has a bunch of unscientific methods to reduce costs, and his main purpose is to find a playmate for Arale, so he can sell virtual helmets at low prices regardless of cost.
But Reed Richards couldn’t. Even if he wanted to sell at a low price, Norman Osborn, an old capitalist, would not accept it.
So Reid thought of a good idea to “pack” the helmet with a game cabin, and then add some additional functions such as massage, sunbathing, and nutritional supplements. In short, make the virtual game cabin worth the price. .
According to the prepared PPT, the spokesperson arranged by the Osborn Group introduced the various functions of the virtual game cabin to the reporters below.
As a genius, Reed Richards is definitely not a copycat who can only draw a gourd. Compared with the virtual game helmet made by Kraft, the game pod he made has unique features besides the additional functions. Belongs to its own characteristic function.
That is, the exercise effect in the game can be truly reflected in reality, and before muscle fatigue occurs, the safety valve in the game cabin will automatically interrupt this function.
In addition, this virtual game cabin also supports most of the VR games on the market, and the main game is also based on the “Star Wars” which is well-known to the people of America.
The players who are watching the live broadcast are definitely excited about the content announced by the Osborn spokesperson, but the reporters present are not so concerned.
It is not the first virtual device to appear, and the significance of the report is not big at all. Compared with this kind of news that is not hot enough, reporters pay more attention to things outside the virtual game cabin.
“Excuse me, why did the Osborn Group choose to cooperate with Dr. Richards? Haven’t your cooperation with Dreamland Corporation always been happy?”
During the reporter’s question session, a reporter took the lead to ask questions.
“The reporter’s information may be a bit behind. We have already stopped cooperating with Dreamland, but this is just a normal business practice. Privately, their relationship is still very good.”
Osborn’s spokesperson responded with the rhetoric that had been prepared a long time ago.
“Mr. Richards, did you develop the virtual game pod to avenge Mr. Stone?”
Some reporters turned their target to Reed Richards.
“It’s not like that,” Reed Richards frowned. He was not good at dealing with these reporters, but SHIELD had prepared a plan for him a long time ago. “It was originally Johnny that was wrong, I didn’t Reasons to hate him.”
“Then why do you suddenly want to make a virtual reality device?”
“Because of this stuff…”
Reed Richards smiled and spread his hands in the face of the aggressiveness of the reporters.
“I think there are not a few companies in the world’s jealous Dreamland Company? It’s just that they can’t make a virtual reality device comparable to it, and I… can.”
Raising his chin proudly with a three-pointer, Reid continued: “This is why the Osborn Group came to work with me.”
On the side, the spokesperson of the Osborn Group smiled cooperatively and applauded.
Such an answer definitely cannot easily dismiss those reporters who want to make big news. They continue to make all kinds of sharp speeches.
It’s just that S.H.I.E.L.D has made sufficient preparations for a long time. Not only did he simulate a series of standard answers for Reid and the others, but also arranged manpower among the reporters, using other topics to gradually deviate the direction of questioning.
After dealing with these annoying reporters with great difficulty, the press conference finally entered the stage of live demonstration. All players who watched the live broadcast in front of the computer were already impatient.
Apart from other things, the IP of “Star Wars” directly used in the background of the game is enough to make many players look forward to it…except for fans of “Star Trek”.
Five randomly selected lucky people lay in the game cabin, and the Osborn staff also projected the five people’s perspective images onto the wall at the same time.
Because it was a test version, the five people were given different identities from the beginning: Jedi Knight, Sith Warrior, clone soldier, Mandalorian mercenary, and member of the Rebel Army.
The initial locations and races of the five people are also completely different, and the old Star Wars fans who are watching the live broadcast are all excited “OHHHHHHH!” after seeing these familiar scenes and characters.
Star Wars is already a cultural symbol in America. Even if the five people who participated in the test are not Star Wars fans, they all know a little about it. They use the characters’ own Ability and equipment in a novel way.
Especially the two who won the Jedi and the Sith, with a lightsaber and the Force, smiling like a second fool.
There is a saying that the profitability of “Star Wars” produced by Reed Richards is probably better than “Dreamland”.
This is not only a bonus to the big IP, but also because Kraft’s “Dreamland” is mainly to find someone to accompany Arale to play, and Kraft puts many things in his dreams into it. .
Although Dreamland’s game planners have made a lot of adjustments to balance, they still can’t change the messy content of Dreamland.
In addition, Kraft did not make any design that is so violent in the game. Before, it was only because there were no other competing products on the market that made it stand out.
Just when many “Dream World” players were eager to change the game to play, other characters suddenly appeared in the game screen of that clone soldier.
“Master Yoda? And C-3PO?”
Not only the players in the game were confused, but the reporters who were watching the video looked at each other.
They have also seen Star Wars, how could these two characters appear on the Death Star.
“Dr. Richards, is this the easter egg plot you designed?”
Osborn’s spokesperson asked in a low voice, slightly dissatisfied.
The person in charge does not know about the transaction between Osborn and SHIELD and the Fantastic Four. He simply thinks that they and Reed Richards are ordinary business cooperation. For this kind of concealment of collaborators, the person in charge naturally Will feel uncomfortable.
“No, this is not my design…”
Reed Richards denied with a daunting expression that even if it was an Easter egg plot, he would not choose this weird combination. Isn’t the father and son of Darth Vader and Lu Gotian good for him?
However, what happened next stunned everyone even more.
I saw C-3PO actually took out a lightsaber and cut it with Master Yoda.
That vigorous skill, sharp swordsmanship, if it weren’t for the golden iron skin too dazzling, Reed Richards would even think that the person who slashed against Master Yoda was a black warrior!
