Build a game empire from scratch

Lin You spent a day fishing in the studio, but he still didn't wait for "Bullet Turn" to become a trending search.

He left the company disappointed, and Yue Pengju drove him to find delicious food.

When they returned home after eating and drinking, they met Lu Wei who came to look for him at the gate of the unit building.

It seems that the matter of focusing on the headband has come to a conclusion, it has been long enough, Lin You thought.

At home, Lin You routinely poured a glass of water for everyone, and then "呵——", opened a can of Coke for himself, and took a sip happily.

"What's the matter with you coming to see me? About the head ring?" Lin You asked proactively.

"Yes." Lu Wei nodded for confirmation, "But before deciding on tax-related issues, there is something I want to discuss with you first."

"Say it." Lin You responded casually, taking another sip of Coke after speaking.

——The dinner was Anhui cuisine, which was a bit heavy, probably because of psychological effects, which made him always want to drink something.

"First I have a question for you, can your focus headband be combined with the mirage host?" Lu Wei asked seriously, not caring about Lin You's casual attitude.

"Yes." Lin You said truthfully, "I'm still pondering whether to add this function, and follow the trend to launch Mirage 2.0."

"We hope you don't want to integrate this function into the game console." Lu Wei immediately added after saying this: "If possible, we will give you enough compensation elsewhere."

Lin You asked, "Is it because you want to keep this technology secret?"

This is not difficult to guess, the Mirage game console will definitely be sold abroad, and Lin You is not afraid of others to crack it.

But if the focus headband is integrated, other countries don't need to crack it, just buy a lot of mirage hosts to use it.

The cost is indeed many times higher than the cost of Daxia, but considering the role of this technology in promoting the development of scientific research and education in the country, the cost is insignificant.

"But if the focus headband is spread out on a large scale, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not be lost?" Lin You asked, "Even when it is spread out on a large scale, the loss is probably inevitable."

"Yes." Lu Wei affirmed Lin You's thoughts without changing his expression.

"Then how do you plan to solve the confidentiality problem?" Lin You asked curiously.

Lu Wei looked at Lin You with confidence, "You must have a solution, right?"

"Huh?" Lin You leaned back, "Why did it fall on my head again!"

Lu Wei was also a little embarrassed, "The key is that you have researched this technology, and no one knows it better than you. And even if you don't mention this, in terms of the level of technology in the digital field, few people in Daxia dare to pat their chests and say You are better than you, so you see, for such an important matter, we don't look for you."

This flattery made Lin You feel a little comfortable, so he began to think about countermeasures.

Seeing that Lin You didn't speak, Lu Wei went on to say, "Actually, we have other plans, but we can't make it foolproof, and the cost will be too high. I came to you to give it a try. You don't have to put too much pressure on it. It doesn’t matter if there is no way. At most we will invest more, anyway, this matter is imperative.”

Hey! Is this the trick to play with us?

This old-fashioned trick--

"Of course I can do it, there are many ways! See which one you like."

Lu Wei's eyes lit up, "Is there any way?"

"If the cost is high, you can install a special hardware locking device for each device, and set the activation range of the device in advance. Once it leaves the specified position, the device will be directly locked at the hardware level and cannot be released."

"How much higher will the cost be?"

"Three times. And this will be completely locked up. It can't be repaired even if it is repaired. It can be sent directly to the level of garbage collection."

"..." Lu Wei was speechless for a moment, "What about lower cost?"

"Add a networking function to the head ring, and then build a dedicated server. Everyone who receives the head ring will create a separate nerve signal backup, and send verification signals to all devices in real time. If there is any signal mismatch, directly lock the head ring. The owner, while locking the software, sent someone to conduct a follow-up investigation."

Lin You mentioned the second option, and he did not forget to further explain, "The cost will only increase by 50%."

"This seems to be quite feasible. Although there is still an increase in cost, at least it is acceptable." Lu Wei nodded.

"I have another plan, do you want to consider it?"

"What plan?"

"Not only do not add any components, but also cut off key components, and cut the cost to a quarter of the current cost."

"Ah?" Lu Wei was surprised, "What component? The cost is cut to a quarter, so can it still be used normally?"

"Focusing on the realization of the function of the head ring, there are two main components, one is the head ring, and the other is the neural modem. But these two components are not one-to-one. The large-scale neural modem with enhanced performance can realize one-to-many .”

"You mean..." Lu Wei understood a little bit, "There is only one large neural modem in one location, and all the headbands rely on this one core to work. We only need to ensure that this large neural modem is not lost. Is it because the headband is lost, is it harmless?"

"Yes!" Lin You nodded in approval, "The only limitation is the lack of freedom, because the networking function is not installed, so the headband can only be used within the signal range of the neural modem."

"That's not a problem! This price is completely affordable!" Lu Wei said decisively, "That's the solution!"

After he finished speaking, he thought about it, and then asked Lin You: "How big is this certain range?"

"Well, I don't know either." Lin You replied calmly.

"What?" Lu Wei looked at Lin You in confusion, "Why don't you know?"

"Because I have never made such a big neuromodem!" Lin You replied innocently.

"All along, I have been studying how to make it as small as possible and as portable as possible. As for how to make it bigger, I haven't really considered this issue. How to stack performance, the range and strength of signal reception, etc. But there are no ready-made answers, and they all need to be researched."

Lu Wei opened his mouth in surprise, "So you drew a cake for me?"

"Why do you say that? Don't all these plans take time?"

"But the large-scale neural modem, this kind of hardware technology research, should be the most time-consuming, right?"

Lu Wei has often seen some scientific research teams trapped by a hardware problem, and the research lasts for a year or two.

And it's not just a matter of enlarging the original equipment, the key is signal strength, performance, multi-channel transmission, multi-core operation... There are a lot of problems when you think about it for a while!

Lin You is indeed powerful, but no one can say for sure about hardware.

You may be able to solve it today by accident, or you may encounter an unexpected problem, and then get stuck, and you will not be able to solve it for several years!

Unless Lin You is sure, he can do it in two or three months! But this kind of thing, even a genius like Lin You, can't do it, right? !

Lin You blinked, "If you only talk about time, the three options should be about the same?"

Lu Wei couldn't fix this sentence at once, "Do you think the hardware technical problems of a large neural modem will take about the same time as adding a networking function to the headband? Then how long do you think it will be solved?"

Lin You made an estimate: he has all the principles and preparation knowledge of neural modems in his head, as well as the perfect data and practical experience in the process of miniaturization. Combining the two and retweeting the large ones, coupled with the assistance of Xiaomeng, there is no difficulty. .

Of course, you have to leave room for yourself when you do things, so he quoted a time that he thought was relatively loose——

"About a week?"

Lu Wei lost his composure and opened his mouth wide. Compared with his ideal and optimistic psychological expectations, this was too fast and outrageous!

Once again, he realized that he had made a mistake.

From now on, in the field of scientific research, Lin You cannot be regarded as a human being!

Starting tomorrow, at 12 noon, the two chapters will be released together.

I wish you all good health and a happy life.
