Huang Liang recognized at a glance that it was a popular external wearing device of VR game called "dream guide", with a price of up to 50000 US dollars. It is said that nearly 10 million sets have been sold in less than a year.
Huang Liang doesn't play games, but he is interested in dreaming. From the comments on the Internet, the playing method of this game is similar to people creating their own dreams. He once thought about buying a set to play, but on the one hand, every pre-sale was too hot. When he heard the news and went to the official website, he had sold out. On the other hand, the price of this thing is a little too high.
The organization helped him arrange a job in a private hospital in Amsterdam, and the income was not high. Of course, his expenses are small. The house is rented by the organization. When participating in the activities, the organization will also issue special activity funds. So with the money he has saved, he can afford game equipment, but he can only afford it.
"Do you know what this thing is?" Howard asked.
"Yes, it's used to play VR games," Huang Liang said. "This game seems to be very popular recently. It's said that a global grand ceremony will be held soon, and many celebrities will participate."
Howard said, "don't underestimate it. It's not an ordinary VR helmet! It's called a space box. Although the developers haven't announced its technical details, it's a subversive product only from what we know so far. Its technology may revolutionize human society like the original steam engine, electricity and computer."
"So exaggerated?" Huang Liang couldn't help looking at the helmet again.
He picked up his helmet and found that it was very light and not as heavy as he saw visually. He stroked the surface of the helmet with his hand. A cold metal feeling came, and he felt very comfortable.
"This thing must be very expensive?" Huangliang knew its price, but asked.
"It's not too expensive. The price of hardware is $50000, but I heard it may be reduced next year." Howard said. "The key is software. It's free now. If the software also charges in the future, only rich people can afford it. And you know, most of our organizations are rich people."
Huang Liang didn't understand why Howard told him this and asked, "is there anything wrong with this?"
"Yes, of course! What's wrong with being able to enjoy the epoch-making scientific and technological products in human society first!" Howard sat back in his chair and leaned back, "But don't forget the purpose of our coming here. We want to subvert human society. If there is one thing we did before us, will our efforts be in vain?"
"But this may also be a good thing. It may be our help," Huang Liang said.
Howard said, "when you are trying to overthrow the feudal society and want to build a capitalist country, someone took the lead in building socialism. Do you think it is a friend or an enemy?"
Huang Liang said, "I study medicine and don't understand politics."
Howard smiled, "you are very simple, and that's what I appreciate about you." then he asked, "do you know how the space box works?"
Huang Liang shook his head to show that he didn't know.
Howard said: "the space box has done a lot of technical confidentiality work well, ignoring how it can store a great deal of information and the neural connection between machines and people. Anyway, it has done all these, and we only need to pay attention to one point, that is, the dream guide The playing method of the game is equivalent to a dream. Everything in the game is completed by the player's own subconscious through retrieval and combined memory, that is to say, every player is having a lucid dream when he has a space box.
You know, it's not easy for us to parasitize human beings. We often have to disguise his shadow in our dreams and accompany him for a long time to get all his memories. If he can have a lucid dream, he can easily find us. Our new comrades face great potential danger when they come in. Although this danger has not been shown yet, you can't say It doesn't exist.
And our "but, what am I going to Wuzhong for?"
"Of course, it's to get close to May's laboratory and find out the whole truth of the space box. If it really poses a threat to us, we should simply destroy it, including its developers," Howard said lightly.
Huang Liang said, "shouldn't the computer experts in the organization do this? Or just invade meiwang directly and let him become our comrade. I'm just a surgeon. How can I do it?"
Howard said, "it would be nice if it were that simple! The prevention of mays laboratory is very strict. We have tried many times and failed. That's why I thought of you. You are very familiar with Wuzhong. You have performed very well in the past. I believe you must have a way. So I recommended you to the second leader."
"Well, I obey the organization." Huang Liang doesn't care where he works. It's good for him to go back to Wuzhong. At least he can find Qingmu.
"I knew you'd agree." Howard suddenly smiled mysteriously. "But not now. The organization has found a more suitable candidate than you."
