Technological power starts with upgrading lenses

Meng Jie couldn't help but froze after listening to Kang Chi's suggestion.

FiberHome Network has just completed the integration and reorganization with Yinghuo Technology. In the future, one of the two parties will focus on program applications and the other on hardware equipment. There is indeed a certain foundation for the development of VR Internet cafes.

In fact, Yinghuo Technology has also adopted a large number of cooperation and franchising methods before, setting up "VR experience halls" in shopping malls.

"Is there any difference between your VR Internet cafe and Yinghuo's previous VR experience center?"

"Of course there is a difference." Kang Chi explained, "The VR experience center focuses on one experience, and the cost of a single experience is extremely high, so we can only reduce the cost of a single experience by applying for a time card to attract users to repeat consumption. "

"Why do we do this? Isn't it just because there is no technology and no content, so it can only be used to cut consumers' leeks like the gym card application model."

"To be honest, this actually makes the public less enthusiastic about VR consumption, so Yingying must not follow this path again in the future."

“The purpose of building a VR Internet cafe is to comprehensively lower the user experience threshold and attract users to repeat consumption. The price factor is only an auxiliary factor. What is more important is the content and experience.”

"Just like when we went to Internet cafes in the past, we might consider which Internet cafe has the cheaper price. But once we become addicted to the Internet, even if the cheaper Internet cafe closes, we will still choose the more expensive Internet cafe to surf the Internet... because what really attracts us is , is a new and exciting experience of playing games online.”

Although Kang Chi said it lightly, Meng Jie was not particularly excited.

The core point of this issue is whether they can bring a "new and exciting experience" to users, but Meng Jie is not sure about this at all.

In addition, the investment to open an ordinary Internet cafe can easily cost tens or even millions. If you switch to VR, it is entirely possible that the investment will be several times or even dozens of times.

If you want to spread it across the country, even if you only open one in each city in the early stage, more than 600 cities will have to prepare at least tens of billions. This scale of investment is no joke.

Seeing Meng Jie's solemn expression, Kang Chi naturally guessed his concerns, so he directly asked him to sit at the console of the fearless tank. After a brief explanation, he asked him to put on a VR helmet and control the heavy war robot for a few steps. step.

Then Meng Jie immediately understood where Kang Chi's confidence lay.

This thing is simply awesome...

With such advanced technology, no one comes to the VR Internet cafe opened by He Chou!

Although the fearless tank in the laboratory had no ammunition, Kang Chi was worried that his mistake would damage the laboratory equipment, so he quickly ended Meng Jie's VR experience.

When he took off the helmet, Meng Jie suddenly said with an unsatisfied expression: "Mr. Kang is indeed amazing, this is real VR..."

Only then did he really start to consider the impact of this incident on all parties.

Then his eyes became brighter and brighter as he thought about it...

Because this trick is not only simple and crude, but also a plan that kills many birds with one stone.

What was the biggest reason for the rise of Internet cafes in the past?

It's because people's acceptance of the Internet is not high yet, because the Internet ecosystem is still in its infancy and its appeal is not high enough.

But the biggest reason was that at that time, the cost of a computer was too high.

In 2000, an ordinary computer cost about 5,000 yuan. Although it was about the same as now, the average monthly salary at that time was only a few hundred yuan.

Therefore, if ordinary people want to buy a personal computer, they must save money and save money for at least a year.

In this case, how could Internet cafes not be popular?

Later, as everyone's income increased, the consumption threshold for electronic products lowered, and everyone had a mobile phone and computer, so Internet cafes naturally declined.

The same is true for current VR equipment.

Although Meng Jie doesn't know the cost of this simulation cabin yet, it must cost hundreds of thousands or even millions.

Such expensive things are definitely not affordable for ordinary people.

Therefore, the sharing economy of Internet cafes is the best way to promote it.

And in this model, in addition to Yinghuo Technology making money by selling equipment, Internet cafes can also make money.

The military can also use this system to screen talents, and even allow users to train themselves into "reserve soldiers" at their own expense.

It’s simply not too fun.

For users, this brand-new consumption experience focuses on mutual consent.

Once this consumption scenario is established, the scale of the entire industry chain, including Internet cafes, consumers, hardware providers, software service providers, etc., may become unimaginable.

It is entirely possible to create a new consumer market worth trillions or even tens of trillions.

"In order to promote this plan as soon as possible, I will also try to apply for subsidies from the above to try to reduce the cost of users' use. I can't really let them do it for free... In addition, chain VR Internet cafes can also adopt the form of franchising to make society more Join more people and resources to make the market bigger.”

"Tomorrow you bring Yinghuo's technical director here to get the information, mass-produce the simulation cabin as soon as possible, and at the same time develop applications for the simulation cabin. If you don't have enough funds, apply to Zhang Qing... But you also have shares. If you invest proportionally, you Can Bian bear it?”

"No problem, you don't have to think about me." Meng Jie explained without hesitation, "It's such a good opportunity, even if I try to sell it, I have to keep up."

Kang Chi smiled and said nothing more.

Calculated based on Meng Jie’s 5% shareholding, for every 100 million the company invests, he must also invest 5 million in the same proportion.

As for Kangchiwan's industry, the starting price is over one billion, which is quite stressful for Meng Jie.

But there is motivation only when there is pressure.

After Meng Jie left, Kang Chi simply tidied up and then called Captain Du through the internal line. After confirming that the recruits had officially reported, he went directly to the training ground.

After arriving at the training ground, Kang Chi saw a group of e-sports young men collapsed on the grass from a distance, with expressions of hopelessness...

When an instructor saw Kang Chi, he quickly shouted: "Gather!"

"Instructor, I haven't rested enough, my legs are still shaking..."

After hearing this, the instructor immediately said angrily: "I said gather! You haven't even had enough penalty runs, right?"

After hearing this, the recruits' expressions suddenly changed, and they all stood up and gathered together.

Soon someone spotted Kang Chi walking towards them, and his expression suddenly became excited.

It's indeed him!

"Salute!" After Kang Chi approached, several instructors immediately took the lead in saluting Kang Chi, "Hello, Master Kang!"

Kang Chi nodded to them, and then looked at the hundred pairs of eyes full of curiosity and expectation.

"Hello everyone, welcome to Pingfeng Mountain Base and participate in my equipment experiment."

"I believe that what everyone is most curious about now is definitely what kind of equipment experiment you are going to conduct next. Now I will take you to briefly experience it." After Kang Chi finished speaking, he said to several instructors, "Let the team Take it to the testing ground."

"receive!"
