Containment Control Starts With the Umbrella

⑨ Consciousness transmission.

Narration:

The inspiration for this technology comes from the Soviet-era technology recovered by Mobile Task Force Gamma in Moldova, 3D printing super soldiers of Bose Einstein condensed matter.

Among them is the technology of transmission of consciousness.

In view of the cruelty of the original plan to directly extract the brain, spine and neural network, Dr. Rebecca Chambers led part of the research team of Hive to perfect and improve this technology.

The end result is that Umbrella has successfully mastered the latest consciousness transmission, and a series of auxiliary technologies.

When soldiers affiliated with Umbrella suffer irreparable injuries and are on the verge of death, they can use consciousness transmission technology to perform surgery to convert the soldier's consciousness into a clone.

In theory, the soldier had undergone a 'body change' operation.

Because of the use of self-clones, there will be no rejection at all.

The only reason to curb the development of this technology is that the cost is too expensive, basically eliminating the option for ordinary people to perform this surgery.

But this is not a problem for employees affiliated with Umbrella. The employee benefits of C-level and above include various medical insurances.

However, the success rate of this operation is not 100%, and there is still a 30% chance of failure.

Moreover, the company does not encourage employees to perform this operation. After all, even if it is a clone of itself, it is still not as good as the original body.

If a senior agent with permanent physical disability caused by the injection of the 'Black Tyrant' serum insists on requesting consciousness transmission surgery, the company will consider consent and approval as appropriate.

Note: Li Mu, a senior special agent who has retired as a civilian employee, did not apply to the company for consciousness transmission surgery.

Affiliate Technology: Network World.

Because Umbrella has mastered very mature consciousness transmission technology, Microsoft, as a subsidiary company, uses this technology to develop a set of 'immersive' virtual reality equipment.

The device is equipped with a full-body garment with nerve stimulation inside the garment to provide the wearer with the most realistic tactile sensation.

Coupled with the corresponding helmet, the wearer can perform various actions in the virtual software only by thinking in his mind, without having to buy expensive and space-consuming walking equipment.

The pre-order price is $499.

Subsequently, Microsoft executives turned to company owner William Russell for help, hoping to build a virtual 'online world'.

The project was approved, and Serena and Cortana were assisting Microsoft's engineering team in building the 'Network World'.

At the same time, Umbrella also bought again under Russell's suggestion, buying the copyrights of most of the games, movies, and novels on the market to increase the entertainment of the "online world".

On July 1, 2013, Microsoft Umbrella's virtual reality device was officially released, and a super-large online game called "World" was also launched.

If you want to play "World" smoothly, you need to buy the latest console Xbox series X.

The price of the Xbox series X is $399.

The World is priced at $129.

The full price is $1027, excluding tax.

Compared to the consoles and games that Microsoft Umbrella has released before, the price of $1,027 is already very expensive.

However, "World" has a high degree of freedom, and it also simulates the scenes of many colonies such as the earth, the moon, Mars, and Ganymede for players.

Almost all buildings can be entered, there are a large number of vehicles, and a large number of NPCs provide plots.

Players can save enough gold to buy a spaceship to explore the solar system, or be an interstellar mercenary, policeman, thug, gangster, soldier, etc.

The most important thing is that with virtual reality equipment, players can feel a 'living' world.

Players can do whatever they want in The World.

Of course, Umbrella, being a customer-is-god philosophy, offers interest-free mortgage payments.

The release date coincides with the summer vacation of most countries, so "World" has become the most popular game in 2013, no one.

Coupled with the continuous optimization of "World", it can be expected that this game will continue to explode.

⑩ Artificial intelligence.

Narration:

Intelligent artificial intelligence has provided Umbrella with many conveniences since its inception.

Such as the control of the Internet, assisting researchers to develop technology, discovering abnormal phenomena at the first time, assisting the Spartan team to control the divine body, etc.

According to one Marine Corps lieutenant, "They're everything."

Before 2012, Umbrella used two intelligent artificial intelligences, Serena and Cortana.

But with the rapid expansion of the company's scale, only two artificial intelligence can no longer meet the company's needs.

Therefore, between 2012 and 2014, the hive used the brains of the right people to create thirty intelligent artificial intelligences.

Each of the star systems of the far colonies, and groups of Spartans, as well as the flagships of Umbrella's regular fleet, are equipped with an artificial intelligence to assist them.

They will also assist Serena to monitor all parts of the solar system to detect abnormal phenomena at the first time and reduce Serena's workload.

Affiliated Technology: Prosthetics.

'Prosthetic body' is a human body created by the hive based on various technologies such as cloning, consciousness transmission, and physical weaving.

The prosthesis has physical organs, skin, and muscles similar to humans, but the brain is completely different from that of humans.

The back of the prosthesis has a chip slot for the artificial intelligence chip to be inserted.

After inserting the chip, the artificial intelligence can use the senses of the prosthesis to touch the real world, and it can greatly increase their lifespan.

When necessary, artificial intelligence can use prosthetics to fight with combat troops.

After several simulated battles, it has been confirmed that the artificial intelligence equipped with prosthetics is comparable to the task force equipped with AAES III.

And they are not afraid of radiation, viruses, microorganisms and other substances that are harmful to humans, so they can also replace engineers to go to dangerous areas for maintenance work.

.

The above is the great change of Umbrella in the past three years.

…

Time: now.

Location: An office in an unknown location.

This huge office has huge floor-to-ceiling windows, and there are pleasant views outside the windows, and the bright sunlight also spills into the interior through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

The sun fell on the neatly arranged mahogany bookshelves and the luxurious desk, and William, who was wearing the uniform of General Umbrella, was sitting behind the desk.

Manipulating the computer, browsing through the various files and contracts that Serena had prepared for him.

When he sees a project that is suitable and beneficial to the company, he will approve the implementation, but it depends on the mood for the cooperation plan submitted by other companies.

After all, a good point is cooperation, and a bad word is that Umbrella is giving alms to other companies.

The time displayed in the lower right corner of the screen is April 15, 2015. Today is the first day of his son and daughter turning four.
