The black technology empire started with a debt of one billion

"No wonder my jewelry store recycles diamond rings so cheaply. The diamond ring I bought for 2 yuan was only sold for 5000 yuan. It turns out that diamonds are also man-made. This is the first time I have heard of man-made diamonds."

"I'm from Henan. Why didn't I know that Henan is rich in artificial diamonds?"

"I am also from Henan. This is the first time I have heard of this kind of thing."

"I just searched on Qiandu and found that Henan is the world's largest artificial diamond base."

"Damn it, I didn't expect Henan to hide it from even our own people. I have never heard of such a thing."

"Did you know that Ice City is rich in cranberries? It is also the largest cranberry base in the world."

"Emmmm, the locals in Bingcheng said they have never seen cranberries in the market."

"Ahem, the topic upstairs is a bit far-fetched. Based on what Mang Shen just described, no matter how much money he has, he would not dare to invest in Asan Country."

"Haha, I didn't expect Asanguo to even lie to their father. I have never seen such a cruel son."

"800 billion a year, which translates to nearly 5000 billion soft girl coins. If it were me, I would treat it as invisible."

"I declare that the Asan Kingdom is the only country I have ever seen that can be compared with the Bangzi Country. In terms of shamelessness, only the Three Kingdoms can compete with the Bangzi Country."

"Ahem, I want to ask if anyone has reserved a place to enter the store tonight?"

"Isn't it said that appointments only start at 6 o'clock? How can you make an appointment now unless you have internal channels?"

"Okay, I've said what brothers should say. As for apologizing to them, that's impossible. I'm not doing your business anyway. If you can, just continue to protest. That ends today's live broadcast. It's over.

If you haven’t downloaded Ultima Online, please download it now, otherwise you won’t be able to play the game tomorrow. "After Cao Mang finished speaking, he started broadcasting at the speed of light.

Only netizens with confused faces were left in the live broadcast room because Cao Mang's download speed was too fast.

"By the way, does anyone know when the Genesis Online server will be launched?"

"The official website states that the global server will be launched simultaneously at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning, but this world does not include Asan Kingdom."

"Although my computer couldn't run Genesis Online, I still tried to download the client. I cried when I saw the capacity of the client."

"Brother, tell me what's going on?"

"The game capacity of Genesis Online is more than 300G, and this capacity is only for the China map, and the global map capacity is 1TB."

"Damn it, the map of China only has over 300 GB? No game has such a large capacity."

"Since I can't run it on my computer, I might as well use the cloud to play."

"But 1 yuan an hour is a bit expensive."

"We only charge RMB 1 while other areas charge RMB 5. RMB 2 for an hour is not expensive anymore. It is much cheaper than other areas. Those who have money can just buy a Deep Blue computer and come back to play."

"To play Genesis, you must have a dark blue computer and XR glasses to enjoy it."

Room No. 819, Sunshine Hotel, Shenzhen.

Bernie Albers took off the XR glasses and handed them to Jonathan Ivey.

Deep Blue Technology gave every manufacturer and celebrity who attended the conference a 64GB and 8TB VisionPro.

Nearly 400 VisionPro units were sent out at one time.

The people in charge of the manufacturer experienced VisionPro as soon as possible after returning to the hotel.

Bernie Albers was shocked for a long time after trying VisionPro. It was the best product he had ever seen in his career. It seemed like something out of a movie.

Twenty minutes later.

"How do you feel?" Bernie Albers asked after seeing the other party take off VisionPro.

"I can no longer describe this product in words. The experience that VisionPro brings to me is really shocking. I don't think anyone can refuse VisionPro. VisionPro may be able to replace mobile phones in the future." Jonathan Ivey said.

"Immediately organize a team to develop VisionPro after I return. How long do you estimate it will take to develop it?" Bernie Albers said.

"I don't know, maybe three years or five years." Jonathan Ivey shook his head.

VisionPro involves too many technologies, and VisionPro has extremely high requirements for CPU performance. With their current technology, they simply can't do it. Not to mention other things, the CPU performance alone will make them stuck.

"I will grant you 5 times the R&D funding. Whether it is three years or five years, VisionPro must be developed. After today, VisionPro will become mainstream." Bernie Albers said.

at the same time.

Other chip manufacturers have also experienced VisionPro.

What they said besides being shocking was that, as Cao Mang said, this is a disruptive electronic product that is unrivaled for both commercial and household use.

The commercial value of VisionPro even exceeds the home value.

Penguin Headquarters.

From the beginning of the dark blue press conference to the end of the press conference, Xiao Ma kept smoking one cigarette after another.

Apart from anything else, just judging from the promotional video of Genesis Online, Genesis Online will definitely take the world by storm. By then, Penguin Games’ revenue will plummet. Originally, they were thinking of grabbing back the market through mobile phones, but now it seems that their idea is A joke.

Although he hasn't been able to experience the power of VisionPro yet, it can be seen from the press conference video that the two are not on the same level at all.

With the advancement of technology, the price of VisionPro will only become cheaper and cheaper in the future. VisionPro may become smaller and smaller in the future. Mobile phones are destined to be eliminated by VisionPro in the future.

In addition, Deep Blue also launched the powerful Tianma 2server. Not surprisingly, Huawei Cloud will definitely use Tianma 2server, and Penguin Cloud will definitely go bankrupt because it does not have the qualification to purchase Tianma 2server.

As for the capital market, they also reacted immediately. Before the end of the Deep Blue press conference, Penguin's stock price fell by more than 30%, and now it only has a market value of more than 7000 billion Hong Kong dollars.

If it weren't for Penguin's profits being enough to support a market value of more than 7000 billion, Penguin's stock price would have already fallen below 5000 billion.

"I really lost." Xiaomao slumped in his chair and muttered.

9am in Great Britain.

Dark Blue store in London.

At this moment, there is a long queue of people waiting in front of the store. Although it is already opening time, the Dark Blue store is still not open.

Store manager Mellie Hemingway opened a gap and walked out of the store with a loudspeaker.

"Everyone, please stop queuing up here. Today's store opening time is 10 noon. Reservation numbers cannot be drawn until o'clock. And without a reservation number, there is no way to enter the store to visit. I'd like to trouble everyone to queue up here. Don’t cause unnecessary trouble to the public,” Mery Hemingway shouted to the crowd.

Although he had already stated the rules for entering the store today, the people in line remained unmoved. This situation made him very distressed.

In desperation, he once again announced to the people in line, and after three announcements still had no effect, he returned to the store.

After returning to the store, Mellie Hemingway took out a second-generation Deep Blue MAX from his pocket and called the person in charge of the headquarters.

"Meli, what's the matter with calling me?" Niels Aziz asked. "Boss, there are many users queuing up in the store. Although we have told them the rules for entering the store, these people still have not dispersed. Can we modify the rules for entering the store?" Mellie Hemingway asked.

"The rules for entering the store are set by China. These rules will not be changed for anyone. Just follow these rules and I will contact the police station to send someone to help you maintain order." Nils Aziz said.

"Okay, boss," Mery Hemingway replied.

It’s not just Great Britain.

Countless consumers in Germany, France, Austria, Colombia, Saudi Arabia, Dubai and other countries are queuing up at the door, waiting to enter the store.

It is unrealistic for any media to suppress the news about VisionPro.

VisionPro has become the only hot topic that has reached the top simultaneously worldwide.

Related queuing matters were also posted on Douyin by netizens.

"Damn it, even the fruit conference back then was not as awesome as VisionPro. So far I have seen videos of queues from more than a dozen countries."

"I think these people queuing up are really ridiculous. Deep Blue has already set the rules for entering the store. You must draw a number to enter the store first. If there is no queue, other people can enter the store through electronic arrangements. It is better to queue up at this time. I’m just waiting at home until I get my number drawn before going to the venue to experience it. It’s really not possible to wait a few days before going there to experience it.”

"This thing is a cross-generational product. How can we not experience it for the first time?"

"Jie, Jie, Jie, grab the VisionPro and sell it to scalpers. You can earn at least 1000 US dollars from one VisionPro."

"By the way, does anyone know how much VisionPro sells for? Currently, we only know that it sells for US$2741 in China. Why doesn't Deep Blue announce the European sales price?"

"Best Buy is the agent in Europe and the United States, and Best Buy orders the products in Europe and the United States. And you have to include tax. The tariff alone costs US$400. VisionPro costs at least US$4000 in Europe and the United States."

"Damn it, $4000 is a bit expensive."

"I heard that VisionPro's screen production capacity is very low. It's good if you can buy it. Even if it costs 5000 US dollars, there are still people rushing to buy it."

"Do you still remember what happened after the first-generation Deep Blue MAX was discontinued? Even second-hand Deep Blue MAX is much higher than the original price."

"I can't afford the Vision Pro anymore, but I can play Deep Blue Genesis online. There must be a lot of tycoons in this game. I might be able to buy a Vision Pro in half a year."

"I held a press conference saying that Genesis Online does not sell any props with attributes. Does anyone know what this sentence means?"

"It means that Genesis online only sells skins and not any props with attributes. Just like when you play Genesis, you can spend money to buy skins. You don't have to bare your butt when you enter the game to buy skins."

"Genesis online seems to cost 30 cents an hour. I think the price is a bit expensive."

"30 cents is the price of the cloud, and the local side is free."

8pm China time.

Store in Xihu District, Hangzhou.

Fortunately, consumers here in China are more sensible. In addition, the sales time is set at 8 pm, so there are not many people queuing up in domestic specialty stores, but these consumers queuing up have already drawn numbers.

Yang Yonghan showed his store entry code to the staff, and the staff let him into the store after scanning the code to confirm.

After entering the store, Yang Yonghan walked to the VisionPro helmet area without saying anything.

There are 20 VisionPro units placed on the long table for customers to experience.

"Hello sir, do you want to buy VisionPro?" Wan Wenru asked when she saw Yang Yonghan smiling.

"Yes." Yang Yonghan said, picking up VisionPro and putting it on his head.

"Sir, because there are many customers coming to the store today, in order to allow each customer to experience VisionPro, each customer can only experience it for 10 minutes." Wan Wenru said.

"I understand." After Yang Yonghan said this, he began to experience it.

The first impression that VisionPro gave Yang Yonghan was that it was very amazing. Everything in front of him was no different from reality. As the press conference said, VisionPro perfectly combines virtuality and reality.

Yang Yonghan first opened Deep Blue Video and opened The Wandering Earth to experience the feeling of watching a movie.

Yang Yonghan could not express his feelings in words except shock.

Due to tight time, Yang Yonghan turned it off after watching it for 2 minutes, and then tried other applications.

Ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye.

When he was still unfinished, a voice came from beside him.

"Sir, your trial time has come. There are still many people who want to experience it later. Can you please take off VisionPro?" Wan Wenru asked with a smile.

Hearing Wan Wenru's voice, Yang Yonghan also took off the VisionPro on his head. Although he had not experienced enough VisionPro to shock him, he knew that if he continued to experience it, it would affect others.

"Beauty, where should I pay for VisionPro?" Yang Yonghan asked.

"Sir, you just go to the front desk to pay the bill. There will be staff at the front desk to receive you.

"Okay." Yang Yonghan said.

At this moment, the front desk has already auctioned off consumers who want to check out. Some consumers will be taken aside by the staff after checking out. These users also need to choose eye masks that suit them.

9 a.m. in America.

New York store.

Because of the time difference, the United States is the latest country in the world to open stores.

Other countries have already opened stores at 8 o'clock U.S. time. Because business hours are at 9 o'clock here in the United States, the stores here in the United States postponed opening until 9 o'clock.

After the store opens, those consumers who have obtained the store access code can enter the store with the permission of the security personnel.

Gadre Cunningham entered the store directly after receiving security approval. After entering the store, he ran directly to the counter where VisionPro was placed.

When he came to the counter, the staff told him that he only had ten minutes to experience it.

Gadre Cunningham took a look at the retail price of VisionPro and gasped. The retail price of VisionPro in the United States starts at $3999.

The price Cao Mang sold to Best Buy was 2600 US dollars. After including tariffs, the cost to Best Buy was 3000 US dollars. Best Buy earned 999 US dollars for each unit sold. Of course, this 999 US dollars also deducted 21% federal tax. After deducting federal taxes, From now on, Best Buy will make another $789.

However, Americans are used to the fact that retail prices in the United States are more expensive than in China.

Gadry Canning picked up VisionPro on the table and started to experience it.

Best Buy headquarters in Ridgefield, Minnesota.

CEO's office.

Hubert Joly looked at the backend sales figures and laughed so hard his mouth split.

Even though the retail price of VisionPro is as high as US$3999, 170 million units were sold in Europe and the United States in just ten minutes. Of course, this sales volume also includes online sales. (End of chapter)
