Chapter 271 Basic Edition Standard Edition Premium Edition

Perseus actually had doubts about the effectiveness of Atlas' communication technology at the beginning.

After all, the physical distance between his current location and the galaxy in the empire where the regent is located is too far. Even if the best-performing ship is used to make a long-distance jump, it will take a long time.

But an hour after the message was sent, he received a reply with the Prince Regent's special encrypted verification.

And this hour was mainly due to the small manor on the planet where the regent was. It was just past 3 o'clock in the morning. Norton II got up from the bed and took some time to wake up.

Actual transfer time may be only a few minutes.

At this moment, Perseus' first reaction was even to buy this 'communication service' for his family's industry.

Because this kind of long-distance real-time communication is simply a dimensionality reduction attack compared to the current communication technology.

"The sky is going to change."

As an aristocratic capitalist, he quickly discovered the importance of this new communication technology in business activities.

If we can use this technology quickly, we can gain unimaginable advantages in business competition.

Since Perseus is currently using the 'V1.3 beta version', this kind of 'ultra-long distance real-time communication' only supports text information transmission for the time being.

So just like exchanging emails with netizens in ancient times, he communicated with the Prince Regent in plain text for more than 2 hours.

The latter was surprised at first, thinking that Perseus had returned early.

But after learning that his 'special envoy' had gone to the federal territory, Norton II suddenly woke up and immediately sent someone to investigate the source of the signal, hoping to find the other party's relay node. .

In the end, it was discovered that whether it was Perseus or his own side, they were actually sent to cyberspace through conventional communication technology.

Then Atlas used unknown methods to 'extract' the information sent to each other, and then transmitted it across galaxies.

Therefore, the idea of ​​​​finding relay nodes is simply not feasible.

The two also realized that Atlas could not be defenseless in this regard, and their idea was definitely impossible to realize.

After the exchange, Perseus found Amber who was still in the conference room and was looking at the 'Rubion 5 Reconstruction Project Plan'.

"Mr. Amber, do you know how much change your technology will bring?"

"Of course I know~"

Amber put down the project plan in her hand, looked at Perseus who walked into the conference room with an excited face and said:

"So the pricing of this service is still a bit expensive at the moment, so you have to be mentally prepared."

Perseus was stunned for a moment. He found that he still lacked experience in dealing with a 'chat wizard' like Amber.

"Well, actually that's not what I meant."

"It's okay. I'll give you the 'chairman's discount'. If you subscribe for a long time, I'll give you a further discount."

"Thank you very much"

Perseus suddenly realized that in just one or two sentences, he didn't know how to say a bunch of things he had just thought about.

"You're welcome. Customers are our gods at Atlas. We are naturally willing to provide customers with the highest quality services while ensuring the group's efficiency."

Amber looked at Perseus sincerely and said, like a gold medal salesman.

Perseus really wanted to remind Amber that the phrase 'guaranteing group benefits' did not need to be said, but he held it in for a long time and finally said:

"Your company's communication technology currently only supports text message transmission for ultra-long-distance real-time communication. Are real-time voice or video communication functions under development?"

Amber nodded and said: "Yes, Mr. Perseus, the V1.3 version you just used is also the version currently used by Atlas, which can provide stable text information transmission.

The experimental V1.4 version will support real-time voice communication, and we also plan to support real-time video communication in the future V1.5 version. "

"Then your company will provide free upgrades?"

"Of course not. These all have development costs. Mr. Perseus is really joking."

Amber replied seriously, although so far, the entire quantum communication technology has been developed by Lilith herself, the main cost is actually the construction of various deep space communication nodes.

But facing outsiders, who are also potential future customers, Amber naturally cannot tell the truth.

He found a plan from his personal terminal that had not yet been made public, desensitized it and sent it to Perseus.

“In terms of service support for this communication technology, we at Atlas are preparing to launch three versions of packages: ‘Basic’, ‘Standard’ and ‘Exclusive’.

The basic version only has basic text communication services, and there are limits on the number of messages sent in each service cycle. After all, after it is officially launched in the future, it is foreseeable that daily communications will be very busy. For our group's system, Load capacity is also a test.

Of course, we will also provide "paid incremental packages" for basic version users for emergency use. "

When Amber introduced the first 'basic version', Perseus immediately showed an expression of 'Sure enough', but he didn't say anything and continued to listen to Amber's introduction.

"Next is the standard version. I personally expect that most corporate customers will choose this version because this version is a package of text + voice communication, and the number of messages and call time in each service cycle has also increased a lot. Of course, you can also purchase the "paid incremental package".

Finally, there is our premium version, although its price is a bit "expensive" compared to the first two packages.

However, just like the name of this package, we will provide the highest level of service for premium customers, not only a three-in-one version of text, voice, and video, but also will not limit the number of messages sent by customers and the communication time. At the same time, premium version customers will also get priority upgrade services every time the version is upgraded."

Amber briefly introduced the three versions of the package. He believed that after trying it, Perseus would be tempted by this service.

The latter's reaction was also within his expectations.

"Mr. Amber, if your company can really monopolize this technology, I can't imagine how much money it will make."

Perseus said seriously: "I feel like I am witnessing the rise of a business empire."

"You are joking, this is just the beginning." Amber smiled and continued:

"But I am still quite confident about the monopoly of technology, hahahaha."

"But if you do this, many people may be jealous of this technology. There is an old saying in the Blue Star period called 'the man is innocent, but he is guilty of holding a treasure', you still have to be careful."

Perseus paused, as if he was thinking about whether he should say the next words. After waiting for a while, he continued:

"Mr. Amber, what I am saying now is completely in my personal capacity. I sincerely suggest that you can fully cooperate with His Excellency the Regent, so as to dispel the possibility of other forces moving their minds. I believe that with your Atlas technology and His Excellency the Regent's power, the future is absolutely immeasurable."

The imperial noble said it very seriously and sincerely. At least it seems that he really hopes to see the two sides work together.

However, after hearing his words, Amber still looked at him meaningfully.

"Thank you for your reminder, but I believe that no one will be able to have bad intentions on our Thousand Star Empire's enterprises in the short term~

When this technology develops to the point where they can ignore the existence of the Thousand Star Empire, even if someone really wants to do it, they will probably have to consider whether they can touch our Atlas."

Amber stared at Perseus and said seriously:

"I have said before that we Atlas will never tie ourselves to any chariot."

There is another half sentence behind it, which Amber did not say directly, but became his inner OS-'Because we Atlas ourselves will be a chariot. '

"It seems that you are still quite confident."

"Of course, if I don't have this confidence, how dare I do this kind of business?"

The atmosphere in the conference room became a little awkward, but neither side continued to discuss this issue.

"By the way, Mr. Amber."

Perseus spoke first:

"After communicating with His Excellency the Regent, we gave up the plan to directly purchase the technology, and are willing to become your company's first external customer for this communication service.

As for the specific details of the cooperation, we will send a professional team to connect."

"Very good, then I wish us a happy cooperation."

Amber stood up and extended her hand to Perseus.

"Happy cooperation."

Perseus also stood up and extended his hand to shake hands with Amber.

When the two sat down again, Perseus spoke again: "There is another 'small matter' I want to discuss with you, Mr. Amber."

"You can talk about it."

"I know that the Federation finally won the battle on Rubion V under your guidance, so I want to discuss with you about the issue of the Empire's prisoners of war."

"Oh~?"

Amber put away her smile and sat up, saying seriously: "Mr. Perseus, this is not a small matter."

"I know that this issue will be sensitive in the current environment, so I also plan to discuss it with you first." Perseus nodded and said.

He naturally knew that the issue of prisoners of war was also a sensitive issue during the war between the two countries, so he thought of operating through Atlas, a 'third party'.

"The main purpose is to see if there is any way to bring these prisoners back to the empire. After all, they were abandoned by the navy fleet, which is indeed a big problem for the military, and there are also some nobles among the senior officers."

"Then I have to tell you one thing first. Even if you want to take people away, you can only take some of the grassroots soldiers away."

"What do you mean?"

"Some senior officers, including Viscount Drake, committed suicide in the prisoner-of-war camp."
