This Game Is Too Realistic

After the meeting.

Including reporters from Ideal City, Li Ke from the college, and other personnel not related to the ceasefire negotiations, almost everyone left the meeting hall one after another with satisfaction. Except for the representatives of the legion.

Cohen sat motionless in his seat, glaring angrily at Chu Guang, who was sitting across the negotiating table.

Including the group of Weiland officers standing behind him, their angry expressions made them want to eat him. Chu Guang was the only one who looked confused, not knowing how he had offended these big noses.

Fortunately, that Cohen didn't let him guess, and vented his anger directly.

"I'm very dissatisfied with your wording. We have an unconditional ceasefire. There is no winner or loser in this war. You shouldn't use the word victory!" That's it! Chu Guang clicked his tongue in his heart.

Everyone has agreed that everyone will win. I will tell my subordinates what's wrong, and it's not like I didn't give you a chance to speak. It's you who insists on showing off, saying "that's a lot of nonsense"

Who's to blame for giving away this opportunity?

If I had known you were so petty, I should have taken nineteen pens, exchanged them for each pen, and tortured you for a few more minutes. The excess can also be used in a lottery. What a loss

"This is really not appropriate," Wu Changnian coughed, glanced at Chu Guang next to him, and said calmly, "This is a ceasefire negotiation. Using the word victory will cause misunderstanding." Looking at the negotiation table Chu Guang didn't pay attention to the pairs of hostile glances coming from the opposite side and said nonchalantly. "What does it matter? Does Ideal City's media have a branch in Triumph City?" Wu Changnian thought for a while and nodded. "That's true."

He was also a little surprised that Cohen would react so strongly to those words. It was obvious that he was saying it to his subordinates, and it would be too much to make a fuss about it. However, from the standpoint of the company, he still had to say something to smooth things over. After all, the ceasefire agreement had been signed, and it would not be good for anyone to have extraneous matters at this time.

Cohen looked at Chu Guang coldly, finally snorted, stood up with his hands on the table, grabbed his copy of the ceasefire agreement, and left the meeting hall with a group of officers without looking back.

The eager players on the side showed disappointed expressions, especially a few guys who were just watching the excitement and didn't mind the matter.

It seems that these old guys' gold coins can't be exploded. Watching the bleak figures leave, Chu Guang looked at Wu Changnian who was sitting aside.

"Have you obtained the coordinates of the Pioneer crew?" Wu Changnian nodded.

"They have given it to us. The 26th Commando, led by Yun Song, has arrived near the target area. The entrance to Vault 0 is also there, and there is a mutant tribe nearby. The legion has disbanded and their mercenaries According to the contract, we can deal with those mutants at will. Chu Guang said with a subtle expression.

"I was surprised before that the mutants in the desert would actually do business with humans." In their eyes, humans are just breeding tools and food. This sounds as strange as negotiating terms with the takeaway you ordered. Wu Changnian shrugged his shoulders.

"I also find it strange, but according to the Legion's own explanation, the previous commander-in-chief of Luoxia Province, General Klass, may have reached some agreement with those mutants. Mutant mercenaries also participated in the expedition a year ago."

"According to the intelligence we have received, the mutant mercenaries' fearless attack methods and terrifying self-healing abilities will make it difficult even for soldiers wearing power armor."

But it's just tricky. The Death Corps fought against those mutants.

According to Edge Paddling's own evaluation, those guys were just a group of elite monsters with a slightly thicker health bar, and were not even as difficult to deal with as the elite group of Wilantes they encountered on Highland 330.

After a pause, Wu Changnian continued.

"Cohen claimed that the marshal had no knowledge of this, and that Joseph

He should know something, but he doesn’t want to talk about it. In any case, Kras is dead, Griffin is dead, and McClun is still alive, but he probably doesn’t know much. This is not a glamorous thing, and they can't possibly investigate it just for your or my curiosity. "Chu Guang raised his eyebrows.

"That means we have to wipe their butts." Wu Changnian nodded. "Yes." Chu Guang said with a smile.

"Haha, they have wiped this shit clean. The previous one will not care about this one." Wu Changnian nodded again and looked at the young ally seriously.

"Yes. Although you may know it in your heart, I still have to give you a piece of advice. Be careful of them, be careful of all of them. Regardless of the episode just now, they will not forget the shame of today. Once you show weakness, They are deceptive, they will show their teeth without hesitation, and then get ready to move. They are a race designed for fighting. Griffin is like this, so is Cohen, no matter who comes here."

This is why the Business Support Alliance holds Bicester Town. They need a trustworthy friend to help them watch over those dishonest Wilantes.

The commotion made by those guys has alerted the Council. The great desert cannot stop the ambitions of the Weilant people. Even if it is just for the peace of the Cloud Province, they cannot completely stay out of the matter.

Chu Guang curled his lips. "No wonder they can talk to mutants."

"Those are two different things. But having said that, I was also surprised when I came here. There were actually gray-black mutants in this wasteland. Wu Changnian sighed and continued with a rather emotional tone.

"I thought the blue mutant with gills was outrageous enough. There are so many secrets in this world that we don't know about." Chu Guang disagreed with his words.

No matter whether they are green or blue, gray or black, or colorful, as long as they are mutants, he does not intend to keep any of them alive.

This kind of monster that bundles plunder and reproduction and writes it into its DNA along with its hatred of humans should not exist in this world from the beginning. They're like goblins.

Every mutant cub carries a blood debt behind its back.

After seeing the hell-like situation in the mutant lair on 76th Street in Qingquan City, he had no intention of negotiating with any mutants. When he thought of his old friends on the Pioneer staying with those beasts, Chu Guang I couldn't help clenching my fists on my knees, "I have a small request."

"What request?" Wu Changnian couldn't help but twitch his eyebrows. He now had a headache when he heard this guy say the words request and suggestion. However, what surprised him was that this guy didn't say anything embarrassing this time.

"Before withdrawing from Oasis No. 2, I want to drive my Heart of Steel some distance further west to pick up our old friends home."

Wu Changnian was stunned for a moment, with a strange expression on his face. What a strange request?

Although it was a bit strange, he certainly wouldn't refuse.

"No problem, why don't you say thank you? The airflow environment in the desert is very unstable, and the performance of the killer whales and Yun Ting is said to be very bad. A smile appeared on Chu Guang's face." That's it. "

Shortly after the ceasefire agreement was signed, the company's troops stationed in Eagle City released their "migratory birds" and gave wings to the news of victory.

The released drone crossed the desert, flew over the river valley, passed through the mountains and rivers, and finally arrived at the city-state located on the east coast shortly after dark.

Holographically projected fireworks were set off in the sky over Ideal City. The Council Building in the center used an entire wall as a screen to show this historic moment to all residents of Ideal City.

Including a speech by Wu Changnian, Vice Minister of the Department of Comprehensive Management.

Also includes what his allies, the Alliance, and the manager of Vault 404 said. "It's an honor to witness this moment with you." "This is our victory" Yes.

This is victory!

The Weirant people on the west coast are ashamed to admit their military failure in the Sunset Province. Euphemistic words are just a fig leaf for the losers. The expressions of those big noses signing the ceasefire agreement are the best proof.

For the melon-eating people on Duandianyun, compared to Vice Minister Wu Changnian's long speech, Chu Guang's concise and concise victory sentence was obviously more popular. Chu Guang did not expect it.

He actually became popular in Ideal City again because of his honest words without bragging. Battle royale discussion forum run by Skull Studios.

Because the developer status of this game is too hardcore, it has attracted countless netizens who are not interested in virtual reality games, but are very interested in the league.

The CEO named Xue Hongliang is also very knowledgeable. He changed the title of the virtual community to "This is our victory!", which attracted the applause of countless players and passers-by. On this day worth celebrating, no one here is talking about the game. Almost everyone is cheering for the victory that has just arrived. A group of strange avatars cheered in the square. "This is our victory!!"

"Wake up, brother, the ground forces we sent are only a commando team and an experimental android unit. Whether we win this war or not has nothing to do with us." "Doesn't this just show the wisdom of the council?" A resident of Ideal City sacrificed his life for this, and the final victory was achieved effortlessly!" "Well, a few people died on the way."

"The administrator comes here and kicks out this guy who doesn't know how to read the atmosphere.'

"Hahaha! I like their manager! Compared with that verbose middle-aged man, I am more attracted to the handsome young man!" "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu I’ve been to places outside Yunjian Province!

"That may be a bit difficult. I heard that the River Valley Province is the hometown of Deathclaw. Even if the Alliance is our ally, it is a bit dangerous to go to that place." "Anyway, thank God" Our boss can finally come back Let’s play games!" "Looking forward to it"

"Hope he comes back alive." "Night City" bar.

As a theme party for Victory Day, the BGM played today is a song "composed" by the residents of Dawn City.

Figures were swaying on the dance floor, and LED masks were dancing with flashing and changing smiley symbols. Under the flashing red, yellow and blue neon lights, the retro music rhythm unexpectedly fit the carnival atmosphere of the scene.

Sitting in the corner of the bar, Fang Chang quietly looked at the figures not far away, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful in his heart.

He probably missed the "Ten Thousand Miles of Yellow Sand" expansion pack, but he didn't waste the past few months. During this period of training and recharge at Yunjian University, he learned a lot of eye-opening things, including the city's popular business models and common management methods here.

He can now confirm that among the developers of Wasteland OL, there is at least a team of consultants composed of experts in politics, economics, military, history, chemistry, religion and other fields to be responsible for polishing the details. Just like the currency of a company.

At first, he thought that the credit points, abbreviated as Cr, were just a kind of game currency that had been reskinned, but after getting to know it more deeply, he discovered that the core of this thing actually coincided with the concept of "DeF decentralized finance" in reality. combine. wrong.

This description is obviously insulting to Cr.

In reality, DeFi is still in the exploratory period and is still far from stable. Most of the digital currencies issued based on this theory are just tricks of flying kites and cutting lettuce. But in this virtual game, decentralization in the true sense is Finance has actually been realized on a small scale, at least in Ideal City and Cr.

For example, the most basic one is that every resident of the ideal city is the subject of credit currency issuance, and is also the guarantee of currency issuance.

In the traditional sense, if a central bank wants to put money into the market, it needs to use various financial instruments. But whether it is lending money to companies to expand production or lending money to residents for consumption, the beer and foam poured on the top of the pyramid cannot equally benefit everyone on the pyramid.

It may even happen that some people didn't drink the beer but drank a lot of foam, and some people drank the beer until they vomited and didn't taste the foam at all. But the ideal city based on the credit point framework is a different situation.

Smart contracts programmed based on quantum algorithms ensure fair and equitable transactions, and the nature of its credit currency and a series of financial rules determine that all people involved in production will benefit equally from the prosperity of production.

Of course, this system also has its shortcomings. Equality does not mean average. It is impossible for everyone to live in a room with a window and on the upper floor of the building. In addition, due to the limitations of this set of rules, they not only do not restrict monopoly, but even encourage mergers between "production departments" within enterprises. So much so that in a place like Ideal City, the monopoly that has been formed is more difficult to break, and there is no force outside the rules that can correct it. Unless the monopolist itself is eliminated from the market due to a business crisis or accidental events, this is basically difficult.

The board of directors, whose seats are determined by shares, is unlikely to promote laws that restrict monopoly. At best, it can only restrict the "production sector" that has formed a monopoly through mutual checks and balances, making it difficult for them to squeeze those who live in this system. Enterprise employees benefit.

After all, in this peculiar economic system, every resident is the subject of currency and has become a part of currency. From a philosophical point of view, although this has led to people being highly "monetized" by things like credit points and losing their attributes as human beings, it can also be explained in another way as "removing ordinary people from the debt relationships of the old era." Liberation "Everyone is his or her own creditor and will no longer be a slave to money, or a slave to others because of money.

In addition to the side effect of leading to monopoly, the overly conservative credit expansion strategy makes it difficult for start-ups like "Skeleton Studio" to stand out, and it is difficult for people who don't like to play by the rules or are unfamiliar with the rules to adapt to life here.

But in contrast, the risks of the entire economic system have also been compressed to a jaw-dropping degree.

In the past century and a half, this small society with a population of millions or even tens of millions has not experienced a real economic overheating or depression. The entire system is running smoothly and upward, slowly but surely.

He has never seen an economic curve with such a stable slope! In reality, if an economy of medium or above size had such strong certainty, there would be no ups and downs, and it would have stepped on the accelerator and accelerated.

If the slope is not aligned with the Y-axis, it is simply a mistake for this investment opportunity to make a profit without losing money. This "sure but slow" situation will not occur at all.

The most striking thing is that this unique economic system can be seamlessly connected with the traditional old-era economies, including the Alliance! Whether it is import and export business or foreign aid expenditure, it has a great impact on the entire economy. It runs smoothly without any impact at all. There is no doubt that this is a model that does not exist in reality.

If this game is as completely real as it claims, this particular model alone may be enough to drive economists around the world crazy!

Of course, this system built with Cr as the cornerstone has reached an outrageous level of complexity. Even residents living in an ideal city may only know the tip of the iceberg about it.

Not to mention he is an outsider.

But just understanding a little bit about it shocked him greatly.

During this short half-year of study, Fang Chang even had the illusion that some sociological knowledge or experience that was not so "avant-garde" might be applicable in the real world.

Even if it only works on a theoretical level.

Since becoming financially free, he has become a professional gamer out of interest and has rarely paid attention to matters in the financial field. However, this game made him regain interest in the major he had put aside, and he even started college in the game. Life is really full of surprises

At this time, the electronic wind chime hanging at the door of the bar swayed gently, and a tall beauty walked in from outside.

Although in Ideal City, a place where there are many handsome men and beauties, Li Shuyue's appearance is not the most outstanding, but the straight-cut, monotonous OL formal wear and her unique and capable temperament, in this kind of The bar is full of cyberpunk flavor, but it looks very special.

So as soon as she entered the door, Fang Chang saw her at a glance. Also catching a glimpse of the being who was out of tune with her surroundings, Li Shuyue walked straight to the opposite side of him and sat on the chair that opened automatically.

"The company meeting has been delayed for a while. I hope I didn't keep you waiting for a long time. I'm treating you today."

"It's okay, there are still two minutes before the agreed time," Fang Chang glanced at the holographic clock on the wall and said with a smile, "I actually just arrived a few minutes ago." "Is this the only thing you want to say when you see me? "Thank you, Mr. Li, for the treat." Li Shuyue rolled her eyes.

At this time, she suddenly noticed the Introduction to Artificial Intelligence and Introduction to Economics placed on the table, as well as the Yunjian University uniform he was wearing. She couldn't help laughing out loud and said in a teasing tone. "You're watching this in a bar"

"I just came out of night school." Seeing the weird expression on her face, Fang Chang shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said in a half-joking tone, "I have no choice. The wastelanders from our hometown don't understand the rules, so we can only take advantage of them. You should study more when you have time to relax after get off work." Li Shuyue suggested seriously.

"We are used to leaving professional matters to professionals. If you want to recharge during your break, I recommend you to take management as an elective." Fang Chang said with a smile. "That, I chose it too." "Li Shuyue: "!!"

Seeing that she didn't speak, Fang Chang continued.

"Speaking of which, how did you come up with the idea of ​​discussing business here?" He originally planned to go to the library to hang out for a while before logging off, but suddenly this guy called out and said he wanted to discuss business.

After agreeing, he discovered that the location was actually a "Night City" bar not far from the Yunjian University Building. Li Shuyue replied casually.

"You can't go to a cafe at night." "So why must it be at night?"

"No one thought you would win today, you should have told me in advance!" Li Shuyue said with some complaint. Fang Chang smiled but said nothing.

Of course he knew the Alliance would win tonight, he knew it even the second the ceasefire was officially signed before word got back to Utopia. However, the information exchange between players is not shared with NPCs outside the alliance. Considering that the other party may have a relationship with the council, he did not make this recommendation. If the council misunderstood that he had control over them, they would not Understand the information transmission channels, which may be somewhat troublesome. When he is not sure whether the other party will care about this detail, his habit is to treat it as "yes" by default. Seeing that Fang Chang was not going to explain, although Li Shuyue felt a little depressed, she did not continue to dwell on this trivial matter. After all, the other party really has no obligation to tell him inside information.

"Anyway, I hope that the business plan we discussed before will be implemented before twelve o'clock this morning. I will use the draft you submitted to me last time... I still need you to check the details. If there are no surprises, I will use that draft. Yes, I hope there are no accidents."

This is the first commercial cooperation between the enterprise and the alliance. She has been preparing for it for several months, and she does not want to be preempted by other speculators who smell the fishy smell. She had a premonition.

Alliances will become a new growth point for companies’ overseas profits!

As she spoke, she took out a holographic computer pen from her briefcase and placed it on the table, then handed him an AR glasses that were directly connected to the computer. Although the manuscript was not a serious trade secret, it was not suitable for display in public. Fang Chang, who took the glasses, couldn't help but complained in his heart.

If serious business cooperation is discussed in a bar, there is something wrong with Party A.

"Twelve o'clock in the morning. Is it okay to be so late?" Fang Chang opened the blue holographic pop-up window and looked at it twice. Fang Chang asked casually while doing a final check. "In this city, time is credit." , Credibility is everything!!! No matter how many professional books you read, it is better to remember this sentence. "

After glancing at the words flashing on the electronic screen not far away, Li Shuyue suddenly thought of something, waved her hand to the ordering robot, and tapped its head twice with her index finger.

Soon, two glasses of specially prepared spirits were served.

"By the way, I almost forgot, congratulations." Looking at Fang Chang who was carefully reviewing the manuscript, Li Shuyue picked up one of the rainbow-colored cocktails, touched the edge of the other glass, opened her red lips and said, "

Congratulations on winning the war. "

"But your expression tells me you're sorry." Looking at her serious expression, Fang Chang couldn't help but make a joke to lighten the atmosphere. "Yes," Li Shuyue rolled her eyes as she took a sip of her cocktail, "I almost could take in a homeless awakened person." This joke was not funny at all. "If Quan Shui is pushed, he will be imprisoned. However, he believes in his partners.

Although those guys were usually not serious, they never let him down when it was time to get serious. And he won't let them down either.

Fang Chang smiled happily, picked up the wine glass on the table and raised it slightly. "Cheers to our long-lasting friendship, and to our victory thousands of miles away" "Bang"

Gorgeous fireworks also bloomed in the sky above Dawn City.

Compared to Ideal City, which was about to end in the first half of the night, the sky in River Valley Province was not that dark, but the lively atmosphere was not inferior at all. The streets of Dawn City were ablaze with lights, and the residents of those shelters seemed to have known that victory would come today.

Although there is no holographic projection that can cover the entire sky, nor is there a "floor-to-ceiling screen" that is three thousand meters high, the excitement and joy in the hearts of the survivors living here is no less than that of their friends far away on the east coast.

Especially the heat and excitement flowing in the blood vessels are even stronger than those of the residents of the ideal city. They were witnesses of this war! They defeated the invincible legion!

Even if it was only for a short moment, they still accomplished a miracle that was almost impossible in the eyes of countless wastelanders and defeated the Legion on the frontal battlefield! Those heirs to the aloof legacy are not invincible. The Alliance has proven this.

As long as they unite, they can even defeat the Valantians in the areas they are best at and most proud of!

Players may not have such a strong feeling in their hearts, but in the hearts of every survivor in the alliance, a hot mark has been unknowingly left. Young sprouts have broken through the hardened soil. The old era is ending.

What will leave in the future is not only the cold winter, but also the desolation in people's hearts.

The new protagonist will step onto the stage of history. It will be an era that belongs to all wastelanders, not just the lucky few. Everyone is convinced

One day, those old orders will fall at our hands!

The fireworks blooming in the night illuminate every face that looks up. The cheers one after another on the streets made every shelter resident and every wasteland visitor from the wilderness feel more at home.

"Long live the alliance", "Long live the victory!" "Long live the managers" this night.

Many people are bound to be unable to sleep.

1 second to remember:
