Tomorrow is the college entrance exam, good luck to all the third-year high school students!!!!)
The press conference ended just like that. Li Yue left the venue and returned to his office, not thinking about it anymore.
His task was complete. The rest would naturally be handled properly by his employees. Otherwise, if he, the boss, had to worry about everything, what would they, the employees, be there for?
Are they asking for trouble?
For Li Yue, the matter was considered concluded. However, for the many reporters and guests, everything was just beginning.
For example, the reporters felt that today's press conference had too many news points. Whether it was the content of the press conference, the guests, some points of contention, or the expensive virtual helmets and virtual nutrient pods, they were all huge selling points.
As for everyone else, there was no need to mention it. The virtual platform, a new platform, a new piece of cake was right in front of them. How could they not plan carefully and seek huge profits?
...
"It's finally over!"
At the top of the Noah Building, Li Yue leaned back on a gray leather sofa, holding a glass of red wine and taking a light sip.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
Outside the door, a knock suddenly sounded.
"Come in!"
Putting down his wine glass, Li Yue sat upright on the sofa, looking at Lawrence who had entered, and raised a hand, saying, "Have a seat, don't be reserved!"
"How are things? How has everything been handled?" After Lawrence sat down, Li Yue raised his head and asked him.
"Everything is going smoothly, boss!"
"Are there many companies joining our software module project development?"
"Yes, many. Almost immediately after the press conference ended, all the companies expressed their intentions and registered!" Lawrence, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, said with a serious and meticulous expression.
Now, he was no longer the former vice president. As of the press conference, he had been appointed by Li Yue as the president of Noah Group, responsible for managing all matters within the company, big and small.
And Li Yue, as the chairman, only needed to manage Lawrence.
This could be considered a form of 'slacking off'!
"Very good!" Li Yue listened to the report and nodded.
"Lawrence, you must understand, our Noah Group invented personal virtual devices, which is like IBM inventing personal computers back then."
"This is hardware. We control the development of hardware, which is like controlling a standard; we are the standard setters! Similarly, with the hardware in place, the software must also be available and sufficiently rich."
"Currently, there is only one software application within our virtual device platform, which is the virtual game 'Myth'. This is too limited!"
"People may find it very novel and rare now. Because they have never seen or used a virtual network, it is very uncommon. But in the future, relying on just one game will not be enough to support this platform."
"We need software, a large amount of software. Just like the software in current computers. Only by making the content within the platform increasingly rich, with more and more information and resources, and more and more choices for everyone, can we provide users with the best experience. This is the necessity for an enterprise, a giant, to exist long-term!"
They say third-rate companies build brands, second-rate companies build ecosystems, and first-rate companies set standards.
This is precisely the case.
For example, on Earth in Li Yue's previous life, there were two behemoths: Qualcomm and Microsoft.
Even if Qualcomm's chips were terrible and heated up excessively, many companies still followed and pandered to them. Even if Microsoft's operating system became increasingly poor and full of vulnerabilities, many users still had no choice but to use it. Li Yue is still speechless about the Windows 10 system, which was full of complaints.
There was no other way, because there was no choice.
And now, Noah Group,
having mastered the manufacturing standards for virtual devices and controlled the huge pie that is the virtual platform, naturally, everyone who wants to participate must listen to it.
After all, creating a new virtual device would definitely not be able to bypass Noah Group's countless patents, big and small. Those patents alone would be enough to make latecomers give up.
For example, Microsoft's patents have led to the vast majority of user computers currently having the Windows system installed. The birth of a new system is probably a distant prospect, because users have become accustomed to the graphical user interface.
As long as Microsoft holds the patent for the graphical user interface, other companies can only stand by in confusion. Apple? It's hard to surpass them on PC!
The same principle applies.
Once users are accustomed to Noah Group's virtual helmets or virtual pods, and accustomed to Noah Group's future virtual platforms, even if other companies find other ways in the future to bypass those patents and invent new virtual devices, no one will choose to use them.
Unless it's something groundbreaking and astonishing!
Just like Apple's smartphone replacing Nokia's old models, it must be astonishing.
However, that possibility is too small, so small that Li Yue simply doesn't believe such a thing will be born in this era, even if this world is Marvel, where black technology is flying everywhere.
Virtual network, virtual helmet, in this era, they are already considered top-tier.
What Li Yue needs to do is to do it well, develop it well, and then utilize it.
After all, he didn't come to the Marvel world to develop a company, but to seize the origin energy of the Marvel Universe.
Noah Company is just a chess piece in his hand, an important one.
Other chess pieces, such as Max, such as the plans in his mind, his intentions, all of this is for the sake of better completing the system's tasks and obtaining origin energy in the future.
Similarly, it is also about strengthening himself.
After all, the system and he are one. The stronger the system, the stronger Li Yue will naturally become. There is no doubt about this.
Therefore, Li Yue never considered himself a good person. He was very selfish, but he was also very restrained.
He knew how to act, knew what he should do, and what he shouldn't do.
Humans are, after all, intelligent life forms, not beasts.
...
The next day, as expected, almost all news media worldwide were reporting on yesterday's press conference.
Newspapers, television, websites, and even radio broadcasts on subways and buses carried this news.
Virtual gaming, it was too captivating.
This was an epoch-making product. As soon as it appeared, it attracted countless eyes, and at yesterday's press conference, this attraction reached an unprecedented level.
Having seen what the virtual world looked like and experienced the difference of the game 'Myth', countless people, both old and young, were looking forward to the opening of major stores in a few days.
The $2199 price of the helmet could not stop people's enthusiasm at all, and even quite a few virtual nutrient pods were pre-ordered.
Regarding online sales!
The orders appearing on Eaby and Amazon were countless, so many that it was astonishing.
It even forced the CEOs of the two websites to personally call Noah Group to place large orders again, several times more than previously ordered.
Noah Group's products were sweeping everything with a global momentum, and for Li Yue, his foundation was finally stable.
