Chapter 270: Chapter 268: Are You Going to Eliminate VR Games?

Translator: 549690339

Seeing the unexpectedly disappearing post, the slightly arrogant Roooooobert immediately backed down…

Facing the netizens who came to add fuel to the fire, urging him to continue challenging the platform, he decisively pretended to be dead.

Lawyer Luke also noticed this situation.

But it didn’t matter, the evidence was already saved, and the litigation process was underway.

You can’t just do something bad, feel something is wrong, refund the money, and then walk away unscathed – that’s not how it works!

If you cause a bad impact, you have to pay a price for it.

This is also the consistent style of Boss Lincoln — if you raise your hand to slap someone, you must follow through.

This way, latter comers will learn their lesson, and everyone can avoid trouble in the future.

In fact, it’s not just latter comers. Now, many video uploaders who have made Cloud Dream-related videos have started to review their past videos, worrying that they might be sued.

Although they didn’t resort to monetizing paid videos, making videos was originally meant to gain some revenue from video platforms.

Is this a commercial act? Will they be sued by Cloud Dream?

Or will Cloud Dream sue them or not, depending on Lincoln’s mood? Many video creators are affected by this incident, becoming more or less anxious…

Lincoln is temporarily unaware of all this.

Rarely, he was working overtime.

His estimate of his own and Mavis’s efficiency was not wrong. When it was almost time to clock out, the content they had planned was indeed completed. However, when wrapping up, he came up with an interesting idea about game guidance and excitedly invited Mavis to work overtime with him.

The idea was simple: adults understand that they need to clear a level and run to the finish line when they see a race track and finish line.

But kids might not get it!

So, a guide is needed to lead and demonstrate how to run, dodge obstacles, and cross the finish line.

Just adding an NPC guide, of course, is not an interesting idea.

So, Lincoln’s idea was – guides don’t have to be human, do they?

How about having Little Milkshake as a guide?

Going one step further, can Cloud Dream’s pet employees also lend their likeness to work in the game?

Going even further, can they make some special animals as guides?

For example, Giant Panda Gungun, or a baby elephant, baby horse, baby lion, baby tiger, baby lamb, baby rhino, or spotted deer?

That would be fun!

As soon as the idea came up, Lincoln and Mavis immediately started making various young animals to see the results.

As it turned out, every time a baby animal was created, Mavis loved it!

She would have to hold and play with each one for a while after every creation.

In the end, they decided to make as many familiar and cute animal cubs as possible!

At the start of each race, a random baby animal would appear to be the player’s guide.

Of course, for the first week, Cloud Dream’s pet employees would have the spotlight.

As a way to show support for Cheryl’s work.

After that week, more baby animals would be introduced to surprise the players.

Meanwhile, they decided to add an open-style large animal amusement park to the amusement park, cramming in all the animals!

Unlike real-world large animal parks, this park completely disregarded the animals’ habits, and they would actively approach players as soon as they came near, becoming close friends.

Best of all, there would be plenty of adorable animal cubs, according to Mavis’s preferences, which would be an absolutely rare scene in the outside world.

Not to mention that these animal cubs could be petted and held at will!

Lincoln dared to bet that once this park was open, it would be super popular!

However, because of this animal park that could be called a protected area, today’s plan to complete the main content and submit it for review was declared a failure.

“Mavis, let’s stop here for today, it’s time to go home, we’ll do more tomorrow.”

“Okay!” Mavis obediently saved the newly created virtual world and waved goodbye to Lincoln for the moment.

But as soon as Lincoln left the virtual world, Mavis re-entered it and started working overtime.

For Mavis, things like map generation with a fixed algorithm were too easy, like clicking her fingers.

Even without using the generation technology, creating it bit by bit isn’t difficult since there are many references in the real world.

Creating adult animals isn’t troublesome either. You can just create them according to the templates in the real world and add behavioral logic based on relevant animal research.

But making baby animals is much more complicated.

Because Mavis needs to be creative, adjusting the images based on real-life baby animals, making their cute features stand out even more while losing some realism.

This inevitably requires a lot of adjustments, and Mavis’s efficiency has been reduced significantly.

But it’s okay!

The more Mavis does, the less work Master has to do!

At nine o’clock the next day, Lincoln was delivered by the park’s shuttle to the company’s gates punctually.

However, before entering the door, a not-so-tall, bespectacled stranger approached quickly.

Yue Pengju instinctively took a step forward, half a body ahead of Lincoln.

Even Little Milkshake, whose head was too small and could only be held by Lincoln in his arms, raised his head and barked twice.

It’s just a pity that there was no deterrent effect.

As always, Yue Pengju’s caution was of no use, as the woman stopped two steps away, politely handed over her press card, and asked for an interview.

Lincoln then understood why she had come directly to him.

Because if she had made an appointment for an interview, Lincoln wouldn’t have accepted it.

Are you kidding? He’s a popular celebrity with more than 30 million fans online. Does he need the exposure that media provides?

As for satisfying one’s vanity with compliments from others?

There’s no need; Lincoln isn’t short of people praising him!

Out of politeness, though, he took the press card and glanced down: Zoe, a special correspondent from the “Great Xia Industrial Observer.”

Not a gaming media?

And, a special correspondent?

Lincoln quickly looked up and took a closer look at the female reporter.

She was short, her expression gentle, but through her eyes, he could feel the power of concentration.

In Daxia, being a “special correspondent” is no small feat.

A true special correspondent is the trump card of a newspaper, and their observation, judgment, action, and thinking abilities are top-notch, far from ordinary.

And the name “Great Xia Industrial Observer” doesn’t sound like an ordinary newspaper.

Combining the two makes this female reporter even more impressive.

“I’m sorry, just a moment.” Lincoln, being very direct, stood in place and took out his phone to look up the background of this newspaper.

Phone unlocked, Mavis had already thoughtfully prepared the key information and displayed it for him:

“Great Xia Industrial Observer,” founded 33 years ago.

Compared to those centuries-old newspapers, it doesn’t have a long history.

But since its inception, this newspaper has been committed to observing and documenting the industrial changes within Daxia, with keen intuition for emerging industries and numerous forward -looking reports.

On the other hand, they also tend to notice the collapse and elimination of old industries earlier than anyone else.

Their warning reports can even, to some extent, influence Daxia’s decisions in relevant industrial fields.

The founder of the newspaper once said, “When the first cloud starts to gather, we must watch it. Only in this way can we remind people to prepare their umbrellas before the first raindrop falls.”

After reading this, Lincoln looked up: “I originally didn’t accept interviews, but since you are a special correspondent for the ‘Great Xia Industrial Observer,’ why don’t you ask your most important question first, and then I’ll decide whether or not to accept the interview.”

Zoe was prepared for various situations and quickly asked her most important question: “What do you think about VR gaming? Are you planning to completely eliminate VR gaming and NetDragon Company together?”

Lincoln’s eyes widened slightly; this question was somewhat unexpected.

He thought that the reporter, Zoe, was focusing on the new industry of virtual reality gaming. He didn’t expect her main concern to be the potential elimination of “old industries” like VR gaming by him personally?

But after a little thought, it made sense.

Compared to forecasting new industries, focusing on and warning about potentially obsolete industries is more consistent with their founding principles.

And, there’s no need for them to predict the emergence of virtual reality gaming as a new industry.

Because everyone can see it coming.

As for her question, if NetDragon could be eliminated, Lincoln wouldn’t mind doing so, but he thinks it’s unlikely.

As for the entire VR gaming industry, Lincoln had indeed considered it.

So, should he talk to her about it?
