Chapter 1176: North American VR Technology Underdeveloped, We Must Introduce It

Crazy obviously isn't just about consumers.

Far across the Pacific Ocean from Silicon Valley, watching this "carnival” happening on the other side of the ocean, all crying.

I don't know how many American consumers flew all the way to China to attend that press conference, Facebook and Twitter these past two days, and almost every ten messages, three of them were talking about this HV-1.

There's almost no doubt that if this thing is introduced to the United States, it's bound to trigger a new round of internet industry. Fate, more than 90% of online users will be willing to pay for this technology that is not particularly expensive!

Zuckerberg, in the building of Facebook headquarters in Menlo Park, California, is watching the report from the secretary and his heart is beating.

On the one hand, it is irritating, and on the other hand, it is naturally red in the eyes.

Just at the end of last year, they had just completed the segmentation of the VR company Oculus' VR device development business, and a little later the entire VR business fell into their hands.

As for red eyes, it is not possible to see the sensation caused by this immersive virtual reality technology in the Chinese market and the enviable look in the eyes of North American consumers, let alone red eyes.

At this point, there was a knock outside the office.

Closed the report in hand, Zuckerberg lit her secretary's head, instructed her to go outside and pour herself a cup of coffee, and cleared her voice.

“Come in. ”

The door opened and a middle-aged man with thin hair wearing Phnom Penh glasses walked in.

“I don't quite understand what you're saying," he walked straight to Zuckerberg, and the man put his hands on the table and said with some excitement, "HV-1 helmets have been successful across the coast, proving that immersive virtual reality devices have a vast market, yet you've cut off our R&D department! I don't understand what you think. ”

Dr. Sanjadi, the chief technical officer of Oculus, is not the one standing in front of Zuckerberg complaining. Almost a decade ago, he led Oculus's R&D team to lay out the future for Facebook.

What happened these days, however, almost breathed out his heart attack.

The entire R&D department has been dismantled, and Oculus has only one shell left, except that the entire structure of the company remains intact, holds a few pathetic patents, and occasionally sells several “old era” VR glasses to solve the problem, leaving nothing left.

“Take it easy. ”

Faced with Sanjadi's questioning, Zuckerberg smiled and handed the doctor a glass of water, watching him take a sip and then breathe a little more smoothly, not slowly to continue.

“If I give you a year, how many percent of you have the certainty to beat astral technology, bypass their patent barriers, use the neural access VR device you originally developed, and grab the North American market in front of them? ”

Listen to this sharp question from Zuckerberg, Sanjadi's momentum is slightly stalled.

Though he wanted to bluff, in the face of BOSS 'eyes, he finally failed to mention the courage and remained silent for a while, barely squeezing a word out of his mouth.

“… difficult. ”

Even if he is reluctant to admit it, it is the truth.

If the gap is not significant, there is still the possibility of catching up. Now, however, the situation is that no company in Silicon Valley has the core technology of a phantom system launched by Sky Technologies, not even the door.

In fact, there's no way to grasp it.

With the exception of hardware, people don't even need to register patents for software. All calculations are done in the cloud. I want a similar system in Shanzhai unless it can hack into people's servers.

Companies wishing to do virtual reality hardware now have only two paths to choose from, either abandon the idea altogether, or be honest and human penises, join the standards they set, produce VR helmets that are fully compatible with phantom systems, and honestly “star tax” on every VR helmet.

“But... do we just watch the Chinese take the whole market out of our sight? ”

It just so happens that the secretary who went out to make coffee came back.

When he heard the subordinate's question, Zuckerberg only laughed, took the coffee from his secretary and took a sip before speaking.

“It's impossible to take the whole market, so they can't even get in, and sooner or later they have to get into the U.S. market, and we can totally seize this moment and split a cup from them. Though I understand your anxiety, we are way behind on VR technology and it would be unwise to get hard on them right now... Facebook is our core business after all, isn't it? Mr. Sanjadi. ”

Sanjadi's throat moved, trying to say something, but eventually he didn't say anything.

Together with other partners, the original transfer of Oculus' stake to Zuckerberg was based on the belief that this brilliant technology leader would lead them into the future.

Unexpectedly, their opponent had just revealed his fangs, and his esteemed president turned to his own people and abandoned the technological route they had been drilling for years.

Though he also knew that it was irreplaceable and that he had not produced convincing results and had his own problems in it, the end made him feel like he was dripping blood.

Not paying attention to the heartbroken look on Sanjadi's face, Zachberg continued to look at the report on the table and suddenly said.

“I hear Phantom systems are heavily dependent on network speed? ”

“… it seems that this is the case, after all, that the phantom system is mainly based on cloud computing technology,” Sanjadi hesitated, "in the case of Huawei's HV-1 helmet, the popularity scheme they use is mainly their own Huawei Heise proprietary communication base that brings about the connection to the virtual reality network. In terms of compatibility, they are also optimized mainly for their own routers, communication base stations and other hardware equipment. ”

Zuckerberg touched his chin and his eyes suddenly flashed a different light.

“If we can help their equipment get into North America. ”

“It's impossible!” Sanjadi looked weirdly at Zuckerberg, "communications hardware has always been one of the most sensitive pieces, the Commerce Department wouldn't agree, took 10,000 steps back to agree, and the White House and Congress would want to do everything possible to exclude them. ”

“I know it's hard, but... it's not hopeless, is it? This is an opportunity to keep pace with the world. Would you like to watch our network fall apart for an era?” The index finger knocked on the table, and Zuckerberg said to himself, "We can't do it on our own, so we need allies. ”

At this point, he suddenly thought of a phone call.

That phone belongs to a young millionaire.

Unlike other wealthy men, of course, he's the new owner of the Boston Foundation, in addition to simple money.

Though low-key enough, Zuckerberg is well aware of that person's energy. Whether in the financial world or politics, that guy can be considered a big man with a face. The huge networking resources he holds are also generally simply incomparable with rich rich rich people...

Although he and the guy had just handed out business cards at a bar, the interest that the guy showed in the new technology seemed to give them the opportunity to work together.

And this is a good opportunity.

Thinking about it, Zuckerberg's heart got hot.

“Anyway, just leave it to me, you just do your thing. ”

“In the future, Oculus will concentrate its business on the production of virtual reality access devices, and we will directly adopt the technical standards of Star Sky Technology...”

“I'll talk to them personally about how to work together. ”

……

A million helmets sold out in a day, and 12 billion dollars in turnover a day even shook Wall Street, far from North America.

However, if someone thinks the turnover of 12 billion is alarming enough, it can only be said that he has no knowledge of the Warwick Group's business.

In fact, the HV-1 helmet is just part of Warwick's layout around virtual reality technology, and while it has shown a sufficiently profitable side, it doesn't even count as a large source of profit.

What they really make money from is the carbon-based communication baseband used in HV-1, as well as neuromodules compatible with phantom systems, these key hardware.

Only Jiangcheng Semiconductor Industrial Park is now able to produce these hardware globally, even if the rice version of the helmet is not yet available for sale, many of the things that cannot be produced are purchased from their factories.

And these industries will have hundreds of billions of market shares in the future. Even if they had to pay a small patent fee to Sky Technologies, the profits would be enough for them to make a full bowl of money...

As the father of virtual reality technology, the ark was rather calm and understated at a time when the world was going crazy for the Phantom System to go online.

Though he receives a lot of alerts or personal messages from Etah around his neck every day, this time Professor Lu, who has always been happy to share his joy with his fans, sees nothing, and doesn't respond to a single message.

In fact, it was not his intention to circumvent the news, but simply not to see it.

He's been in the lab all these days, drumming a little thing...

Although this thing may not be as amazing as virtual reality technology.

But when it comes to its technological content and its impact on the global information industry, I'm afraid it's no worse than virtual reality technology, or even worse...
