"For example, a clothing store can open to the online virtual world, and open a virtual clothing store in the community, which is a complete mirror image of the offline one. The reason why we want to simulate a virtual earth is to achieve the combination of offline and online."
"Returning to the above topic, if a user in China wants to buy French products, with the virtual world, the user enters the address, enters any door, and comes to this online store, which is equivalent to going directly to France."
Li Linfei looked at the startled Zuckerberg and said with a smile: "This clothing store is very special. It can be open [-]/[-], and there are no salespersons, no cashiers, and the address is public."
"As long as you enter the correct address, anyone can come in. If it is a clothing store, you can try it on, you can wander around in the store at will, you have determined which outfit you want to buy, place an order, pay the bill, and after the transaction is completed, the offline will be the first. Time to receive feedback."
"Starting offline operations, packaging and delivering directly to China through logistics, it is almost the same as the current Internet online shopping, but there is a huge difference."
"Especially the difference in experience is something that the current Internet can't do at all. Some shopping processes are the same as online shopping on the Internet, and there are similarities and differences between buyers and sellers' third-party trust, etc."
"Community and social interaction will allow users to experience life in the virtual world that cannot be experienced in reality. Yes, another way of life. Games are also another core of the virtual world."
"How to experience virtual games? The virtual world itself is a Sims-like game, and there is also a game in this game, a game within a game."
"Virtual games are one of the biggest catalysts for attracting users to settle in the virtual world. This will be an unprecedented extreme experience, the ultimate in role-playing. Each game is equivalent to an independent and complete small world. Enter the name of the game you want to play , like Call of Duty."
"From the community, even in your friend's space, you can step into the other end of any door anytime, anywhere, and you will transfer from the community or any place to the game world."
"For example, as long as you buy the game Call of Duty, you can experience the most realistic war, tense, exciting, and unprecedented! As mentioned earlier, in the community, the identity of the user has one and only one chance to set the image, while in the game in the world."
"This is a brand new independent world with brand new rules. All rules such as whether the image can be changed at will are decided by the game developer. This is the real game experience!"
The virtual world, just like what we have just experienced, can be omnipotent, including avatars, flying, changing, flying fighter jets and other strange abilities, but these are forbidden in the community.
"The community is a place where everyone must abide by order. Like the real world, there are also Internet policemen in the community. Anyone who does not obey the order in the public community will be punished accordingly, and even permanently banned from connecting to the virtual world. These needs Time to perfect it step by step.”
"But in the game world, you can do everything. In my world, you are the master."
Li Linfei opened his hands, looked at the astonished Zuckerberg, and said: "Virtual world, brand-new experience, unprecedented. Here, for users, it is a brand-new, unprecedented, omnipotent, and unstoppable fantasy world." A perfect world."
"For businesses from all walks of life, here is full of endless opportunities and wealth, the only thing lacking is the vision and creativity to discover opportunities."
"This is the virtual information age." Zuckerberg murmured.
The human world is about to change, this is the only thought in Zuckerberg's mind at this time, this creation-like initiative will subvert the way of human life.
At the same time, it enriches human life and changes the progress of human civilization. When the virtual world is popularized by all human beings, human beings will have two worlds, the illusory world of bliss and the real world.
At this moment, Zuckerberg knew what a rare opportunity Facebook has. If this is an investment, it will definitely become the biggest profit in Zuckerberg's life.
For Zuckerberg, an Internet practitioner, he knows how rare the first-mover advantage obtained by knowing the news in advance means that it is a big advantage to be one step ahead of others.
"Seeing all this, there is nothing to stop me from being determined to only be a community." Zuckerberg said solemnly.
Li Linfei said with a smile: "Future Technology has always emphasized that it will not do content. The genes and personality of Future Technology determine our development direction and positioning, and we are destined not to do content."
"So you never have to worry that I will enter the social field. Facebook focuses on social networking and uses its own advantages. In the future, a trillion-dollar market value is not a dream."
"Thank you!" Zuckerberg said sincerely.
He is well aware of this first-mover advantage and what it means for Facebook.
"It doesn't have to be like this, the two names of Facebook and Facebook are destined to have extraordinary meanings, in a sense, Facebook has achieved something, and now giving back to Facebook is a matter of course.
"I hope we don't become competitors. I am your daughter's godfather." Li Linfei said with a smile.
When Zuckerberg heard this, he immediately showed a relaxed smile: "I don't think anyone wants to compete with it. It will also prevent it."
"Ha ha!"
"Ha!" The atmosphere became more and more active.
Li Linfei continued on the topic and said: "Content creation is your strong point, especially social interaction. The virtual world will definitely become richer and more colorful with more and more participants joining in the future."
"But now he is a blank slate, and someone needs to describe it. There is not enough good content. Everything is decoration and empty talk."
"The beginning is difficult. I need Facebook to take the lead in creating a relatively complete community when the virtual world is launched in the market, and attract the first batch of users through virtual games."
"No problem." Zuckerberg nodded, then asked, "But how do you get involved?"
Li Linfei said: "You select a reliable team to come to Matrix Technology, and we will teach them something new."
"In the future, as the virtual world is launched into the market, some open source databases will be announced. As long as every participant is interested in it, he can add his own creativity to this world."
The first thousand and 710 chapters goal - the universe (1)
"still have a question."
Zuckerberg said: "Users are the premise and foundation of everything. This product is perfect, but users need a client to connect to the virtual world, that is, a perception helmet."
"The price of such cutting-edge technology products should not be cheap. Too expensive will also inhibit the popularization effect. Although we all know that it will ban the current Internet, long-term means high investment and slow returns."
Zuckerberg thought for a while, and then asked: "I would like to ask, how much is the price of the client-side perception helmet?"
"exactly."
Li Linfei nodded and said, "The price of the first-generation perception helmet will be kept at $4000, the cheaper the better."
$4000 is equal to the cost price. Li Linfei has no intention of earning a penny from the client side. The most profitable part of the virtual world is undoubtedly the platform's share revenue.
Compared with the profit of the platform, the client terminal is not worth mentioning at all. The number of users is the most valuable. One more user connected to the virtual world can indirectly bring more uninterrupted benefits to future technology.
Regardless of where he spends in any sector of the virtual world, Future Technology can obtain indirect benefits from platform commissions.
As long as users enter the virtual world, there will always be a place for consumption. As long as they consume, future technology can obtain indirect benefits.This is the advantage of being a platform.
"4000 USD?"
Zuckerberg said in surprise, "How could it be so cheap?"
In his opinion, such cutting-edge technology products, at least the retail price of tens of thousands of dollars is reasonable.
$4000 is basically the cost price. "
Li Linfei said: "The popularity of this price, I even think it is too expensive. I am considering whether to sell at a loss below the cost price. If necessary, it is not impossible to make a loss-making transaction."
Li Linfei smiled and looked at Zuckerberg who looked like a wood carving.
Zuckerberg was speechless on the spot, selling below cost price?This means that the more you sell, the more you will benefit. I am afraid that there is no second one in the world.
He didn't expect Li Linfei to make such a move at all, but after being surprised, Zuckerberg also knew that this kind of real loss-making business is not necessarily a real loss.
This is very in line with the Internet's development model of burning money to promote and cultivate the market before operating, but it is more extreme, which can also be reflected from the side.
Given the huge potential of the virtual world market, Future Technology may have lost tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of dollars when promoting the client and accumulating the number of users.
But maybe in the second year, the cost can be recovered and profits can be realized. The immediate benefits and the ultimate benefits are not at the same level at all.
