Chapter 549 Changes in the Real World

Chen Luo put on the facial simulator again, adjusted an ordinary appearance, randomly selected a teleportation point, and disappeared into the laboratory.

The next moment, Chen Luo had already appeared on the roof of a building in Pengcheng.

This time, Chen Luo didn't jump straight from the air, but took the elevator to the first floor.

As a first-tier city, Pengcheng is no less prosperous than Beijing and Shanghai. From where he is located, there are skyscrapers that cannot be seen in all directions.

The streets are crowded, and everyone is in a hurry. Obviously, the pace of life here is much faster than in Jiangcheng.

"Book a flight to Yangcheng after six o'clock in the evening."

"Navigating Lijin City."

"play music."

Chen Luo was walking on the street and found that many pedestrians on the road were talking to themselves, and everyone was not surprised, as if they were used to it.

Chen Luo took a few glances, then found a coffee shop on the street and sat down, slowly observing the world ten years later.

The first thing that surprised Chen Luo was that everyone's mobile phone was completely different from his.

Some mobile phones have a folding screen, which can be opened like a book. One screen is playing video, and the other screen has a chat interface. Obviously, it is used for two purposes.

There are also mobile phones with curved screens that can be bent and folded at will.

And the people in the coffee shop are like the people on the street. When they type on the screen, they use their voice instead of manual input.

Chen Luo looked at it for a moment, then looked at the mobile phone in his hand, and suddenly felt a sense of time and space confusion.

His mobile phone was probably the best ten years ago, but now it's probably not as good as the old man's phone.

Chen Luo looked at his mobile phone, he smiled, and immediately got up to go to the mobile phone shop.

On the road, Chen Luo also noticed the changes on the street. Most of the vehicles on the street have become electric vehicles, whether they are ordinary vehicles or sports cars, without exception, they are all new energy license plates.

Interestingly, Chen Luo found a lot of advertisements for game helmets and game warehouses on the roadside, and no matter what type of products, they used "Second Life" to advertise.

What made Chen Luo even more ironic was that he actually saw the endorsement advertisements of Fang Xingchen and Zhao Yi, and it seemed that they were endorsed by a big brand.

"Should I charge some royalties?"

Chen Luo felt very speechless. "Second Life" said that there was an official game, but in fact he was the only one.

It was used by these equipment companies and advertisers for advertising, and no one came to defend their rights, so they naturally used it recklessly.

Chen Luo smiled and forgot in a flash, he could also guess why this happened.

As the terrifying influence of "Second Life" spreads around the world, many huge industrial chains have been formed around it.

For example, the equipment such as the first VR glasses, after these equipment manufacturers make money through this game, driven by interests, they naturally have greater motivation to research more comfortable and experience equipment.

In fact, the authenticity of Second Life is so high because the player enters the Western Fantasy World with a soul, and it has nothing to do with the equipment.

As long as their devices can connect to the network and get permission from Hunyuanbi or Chen Luo, they can enter the Western Fantasy World.

The game warehouse is naturally to solve the problem of players playing games, food and water in the fantasy world for a long time.

Nutrient solution can be placed in these game compartments in advance. According to the player's settings, it can be injected into the player's body at regular intervals. Even if it is in the Western Fantasy World for a long time, the body in reality will not collapse.

According to Chen Luo's estimation, it will take at least fifty years, or even longer, for such a game warehouse to appear.

But when everyone knew that the Western Fantasy World was a real game, and that in the Western Fantasy World, there was a greater chance of becoming an extraordinary person, and there was a greater chance of awakening and becoming an extraordinary person in reality, almost everyone went crazy for this game.

Now "Second Life" has become a well-known game all over the world. Among all minors, the most desired adult gift is a game helmet or game warehouse.

Under such terrifying demand, a large number of game equipment companies have naturally been born. Not only private companies are researching equipment, but even major national laboratories are conducting research in this area.

Decisions made at the national strategic level, coupled with the influx of huge capital, suddenly made this industry an unprecedented boom.

As a result, the game warehouse that originally took decades to develop was made in just ten years.

It’s just that the cost is now extremely high, and only families above the middle class can afford it.

Chen Luo searched the street for a while, and soon found a mobile phone shop.

The clerk inside glanced at Chen Luo's dress, but no one came to greet him.

Chen Luo looks average, and the clothes he wears are the same as ten years ago, which looks a bit old-fashioned now.

Chen Luo naturally didn't care about the attitudes of these ordinary people, and he didn't waste time, he just picked a curved screen and a folding screen, and went to pay.

But there was a problem when paying, because the cashier did not use mobile phones to pay, but paid by face and fingerprint.

This is the same as ten years ago, when mobile payments are everywhere, and few people go out with cash.

And now it's just to scan the face, there is no QR code to scan.

"Can I transfer money?"

Chen Luo glanced at the cashier and asked.

The cashier looked at Chen Luo holding the "elderly phone" with a strange expression on her face. Few of them have opened face-swiping payment these days, and even elementary school students have the function of face-swiping payment.

"Yes, sir, you can transfer money to this bank card."

When Chen Luo picked up his mobile phone and prepared to pay with the payment software, a new problem came up again.

"Version is disabled, please update to the latest version."

Chen Luo chose to update, but a new prompt popped up, "The latest version does not support your phone model, please try another phone."

Chen Luo was dumbfounded, he knew that he didn't need to try mobile online banking again, and the result would definitely be the same.

"There is something wrong with my mobile phone. Can I put my mobile phone card in the new mobile phone, and can I pay again?"

The cashier was stunned for a moment. She looked at Chen Luo's old phone and said with a smile on her face, "Sir, both phones need to be activated before they can be used. Once activated, there is no way to return them. If you do this, your mobile phone card should still be an old-fashioned SIM card, and you can't put these mobile phones in it."

"let it go."

Chen Luo didn't care, he pushed the two mobile phones back and planned to let Song Zhengxian prepare.

"I'll pay for you. You change your mobile phone and transfer the money to me."

Just as Chen Luo was about to leave, a clear and pleasant female voice suddenly came from behind.
