"Zhang, is this your capital to compete against the storm?" At this mont, Ma Hua and the others had a completely different mindset than before.
"Yes, so from beginning to end, I have never taken the threat of the storm seriously," Zhang nglong said.
Since the LSP team won, Zhang nglong had started developing these gas.
Even if Michel hadn't troubled him, he would have initiated this revolution on his own.
Ma Hua and Ding Sanshi exchanged glances, and they both saw a trace of concern in each other's eyes.
"Do you two have any questions?" Zhang nglong asked.
"Zhang, this indeed seems like a good ga, and the player experience is unprecedented," said Ma Hua, "but, Zhang, making a good ga isn't enough just on its own."
As a seasoned gar, Ma Hua knew there were many conditions to make a ga a smash hit.
First, the lower the requirents for the gaming equipnt, the lower the barrier for the players. For instance, gas like Minesweeper, Solitaire, and Little Tyrant can be played to their full potential.
But if you want to play a ga like PUBG, once the equipnt cannot support it, if the performance isn't powerful enough, then the gaming experience will be like a slideshow.
In such cases, even the best of gas won't have many players willing to pay for them.
With these VR gas, players have to invest a lot of money in buying the equipnt, just this one condition will exclude countless players right at the threshold.
This is also the biggest reason why VR gas haven't been able to beco widespread so far.
"Hahaha, that's what you need not worry about," laughed Zhang nglong, "This set of equipnt may look high-end, but its value lies in its core chip, and right now we are the most powerful chip-supplying country, and we have full control over the cost."
"How much does it cost to run this equipnt?" Ma Hua imdiately asked.
"A regular computer can support the conditions needed for the ga to run, and the cost price of this VR equipnt is 184 US dollars!"
"That cheap?" exclaid Ma Hua.
This was definitely great news!
You see, Zhang nglong manufactures these himself, he doesn't need to share profits with anyone, so the pricing was entirely up to him. If he chose to sell at cost price, then this price under 200 US dollars, for anyone who has experienced the ga, won't feel a pinch!
In the spending levels of Jiangnan City, a regular college student can't get much for a al out.
As long as the brand makes a mark, this $184 device will definitely not be a barrier to this ga!
Even more radically, he could give away the device for free with the download of the ga, and once you're into the ga, Ma Hua had a thousand ways to trick the money out of your pocket.
Wouldn't it be ga over with a constant 648-yuan charge?
Next, Zhang nglong dropped another bomb.
He had developed a total of 14 gas, all of which could be accessed through this one piece of VR equipnt!
Averaging it out, this ant each ga cost only a dozen or so yuan!
A random ga on Steam costs several tens of yuan, how strong would the market competitiveness be!
"There's still one issue!" Ma Hua suddenly rembered a critical factor, "What about your servers?"
This question cooled down Ding Sanshi's head, which had just been heated up in excitent.
They had just seen the ga's graphics, which were virtually identical to reality. To run it on a computer, you wouldn't believe how many graphics cards it would burn through.
But now, thanks to Zhang nglong's chips, the country had already popularized 5G technology, and VR equipnt could replace both the display and the graphics card, reducing the demand on equipnt, but undeniably putting a terrifying strain on the servers.
So much ga data flowing back to the servers—if the computational power, processing capabilities, and storage capacities were insufficient, a server crash would just be minutes away, severely diminishing the gaming experience for players.
"Hahaha, that's not a problem at all!" Zhang nglong stamped his foot, "The server is right here underground!"
"Can I take a look?"
"Of course!"
Zhang nglong led them down in the elevator to the basent level.
The mont the elevator doors opened, the tech-infused corridor that seed like sothing out of a sci-fi movie completely astounded them.
The server storage rooms of Tengxun Gas and Wangyi Gas were already quite large, but Zhang nglong's server was imasurably bigger.
"How big is this server room?" Ma Hua asked.
"About twenty to thirty thousand square ters."
"Twenty to thirty thousand?" The two were even more stunned. "Even for a huge server, does it need to be this massive?"
Their company's ga servers were at most a few hundred square ters.
"The ga server itself isn't that big," Zhang nglong explained. "But to support the operation of the server, I set up a supercomputer for technical data support, so it takes up quite a bit of space."
"Supercomputer?"
Hearing these words, the two were dumbfounded.
"I've divided the ga data into tens of thousands of cores and loaded them onto this supercomputer through so technical developnt," Zhang nglong explained. Though this thing had great computational power, you couldn't just use it to play 'Minesweeper' imdiately—it's more about its computing capabilities.
"This is really sothing only you, Zhang nglong, could pull off!"
So things can be bought with money, such as Zhang nglong's mansion, Zhang nglong's private plane, or even his 3000 dostic flight routes; anything is possible with money.
But setting up a supercomputer? Is that sothing money can buy? Even at a national level, that's considered a strategic-level resource!
What can a supercomputer do?
Quantum-level mathematical analysis modeling, molecular-level chemical formula analysis, weather data analysis and forecasting, design of spacecraft and fighter planes, intelligence analysis, cosmic information analysis, and exploration of the origin of the universe.
To use such an incredible device for a ga server is truly astounding.
"This thing is great, gaming is incredibly fast, and watching videos is extrely smooth. Not to ntion, using it to mine Bitcoin when free is also excellent. Spending several billion US Dollars to get this is truly a bargain!"
...
Zhang nglong's boasting had left Ma Hua and Ding Sanshi speechless, but since the equipnt issue was resolved and the server problem was addressed, this ga's advantages were nearly unparalleled.
With the support of supercomputing, this ga would hardly suffer the common issues of server overcrowding or errors that typical gas face.
"Mr. Zhang, what do you an by showing us this?" the two grasped the essence.
They saw the excellence of this ga. If it went live, their market share would be completely seized by Zhang nglong. Whether it was Tengxun or Wangyi, gaming made up a huge part of their revenue, and they would go bankrupt naturally without Zhang nglong having to acquire them.
"Don't panic," Zhang nglong said with a smile. "As you know, promoting gas is also very important. I don't own any famous gaming companies, but Wangyi Gas and Tengxun Gas are experts in this field. I think it would be best to let you manage these fourteen gas."
"Really?" Their eyes glead brighter than a cat's at night.
They were literally being handed a fortune-making opportunity!
"I only have one requirent," Zhang nglong said, emphasizing each word, "Crush PUBG for !"
