135: Virtual Reality Summit officially opens to jointly build the second world for mankind

"Received."

Number Three's reply was natural, not making anyone feel like it was a robot at all.

As Number Three's voice fell.

Number Three's skin began to change.

The liquid metal on its skin began to recede, revealing the mechanical circuits underneath, and then, the liquid metal slowly started to repair itself.

Simply put: it was like "face-sculpting."

Suihuo Technology's new generation of Liquid Robots already possessed real-time face-sculpting technology, with the entire process taking no more than a minute.

Soon.

The Liquid Metal changed its appearance.

It transformed into a male skin with a conventional, square-shaped face.

"This..."

The CEO of Samsung Group watched this scene, his eyes wide open.

There was some disbelief in his gaze.

His lips twitched, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't.

The reactions of the other internet tycoons upon seeing Number Three were not much different from the CEO of Samsung.

All were shocked... incredulous... In fact, these guide robots, besides serving these internet tycoons.

Also had another purpose, which was to monitor these tycoons.

To prevent them from going to places they shouldn't.

Actually... Jarvis wasn't worried about them wandering off and seeing some secrets.

Rather, he was worried about them going to places they shouldn't.

And being dismembered directly by the Hive Defense System.

Not even a speck of dust would be found... Soon.

They followed the robot guide and arrived at the Hive East Office Building.

Standing in the center of the office building was a spherical smart screen.

This smart screen had a segment of Jarvis's intelligent program, capable of independently handling visitors' questions.

Simply put:

This sphere was a stripped-down version of artificial intelligence.

"Everyone."

"Please take your time touring here."

"I still have some work to finish, so I'll have to excuse myself."

After speaking.

Jarvis left without waiting for their reactions.

The game haptic pods were about to be released, and he still had many things to do. How could he have time to accompany these people... Seeing Jarvis leave, the corners of the internet tycoons' mouths twitched again.

Damn it!

Are we being disliked again?

Is it that serious?

What the hell do you mean 'handle work'?

I think you just don't want to entertain us.

Are we that annoying?

First the bus... now leaving us here... The internet tycoons could only grumble in their hearts; they absolutely dared not say it out loud... A moment later.

They began to tour Suihuo Technology's office building.

The most striking feature in the office building was the sphere in front of them.

CEO Xu of Huawei Group was in mobile terminals and also had deep expertise in artificial intelligence and software development.

Therefore.

He was more interested in products like the sphere.

He then walked up to the sphere and asked lightly:

"Hello, what's your name?"

Beep beep... The sphere's green indicator light flashed, and it suddenly turned, recognizing CEO Xu through facial recognition and big data comparison.

"Hello, CEO Xu of Huawei Group."

"My name is Xiao Zhi. If you have any questions, you can ask me anytime."

Holy crap!

The conversation between CEO Xu and Xiao Zhi immediately attracted a crowd of tycoons.

"What is this?"

"A smart guide assistant? Or artificial intelligence?"

"CEO Xu, quickly test its functions."

...Hearing the voices around him, CEO Xu chuckled dryly and, without being polite, stood in place and began to directly study it.

"Xiao Zhi... Xiao Zhi..."

"Where is the restroom, please?"

..."Xiao Zhi... Xiao Zhi..."

"How do I leave here?"

..."Xiao Zhi, Xiao Zhi..."

"I want to contact your Chairman Lu."

...Xiao Zhi's performance did not disappoint them either.

No matter how difficult the questions people posed, Xiao Zhi could always answer perfectly.

And it was completely impossible to tell that it was an artificial intelligence.

"This is awesome."

"If this artificial intelligence technology were applied to smartphone voice assistants, wouldn't it... dominate?" CEO Xu had a flash of inspiration, suddenly thinking of something that could increase Huawei's core competitiveness.

He secretly thought to himself that after the Virtual Reality Summit ended, he would discuss the issue of licensing this technology with Lu Xingye.

At this moment.

The CEO of Samsung Group leaned over and interjected:

"Your Penguin Group is the leader among Kyushu internet companies. I want to ask Boss Ma, can you achieve this function?"

Boss Ma heard this, shook his head, his voice a little dejected.

"We can't do it."

"Penguin Group is no longer the most powerful internet company in Kyushu."

The CEO of Samsung Group glanced at Boss Ma, feeling that Penguin Group was somewhat overrated.

Immediately after, he turned his head and looked at the CEO of Microsoft.

The meaning was very clear, he was asking if Microsoft could achieve this technology.

"I'm afraid we can't do it either."

"The sphere technology, seemingly simple, contains too much content... high-end technologies such as artificial intelligence, smart positioning, facial recognition, and intelligent algorithms."

"To link all these technologies together, the difficulty is truly too, too... too great..."

Microsoft's answer was similar to Penguin's.

Both stated that this technology was too advanced and they couldn't achieve it at this stage... Awesome.

Suihuo Technology!

Although they already thought Suihuo Technology was awesome, they didn't expect Suihuo Technology to be awesome to this extent.

A simple technology displayed in the lobby.

Not a single internet tycoon could achieve it.

This... this is truly like a heifer with lightning... so awesome it flies to the sky... They spent the entire morning in this office building.

But they didn't feel bored. Because Suihuo Technology had many technologies they had never seen before, which greatly broadened their horizons... At three in the afternoon.

Lu Xingye finally emerged from the laboratory.

He was ready to meet these internet tycoons. This Virtual Reality Summit was held on the tenth floor of the office building.

The original tenth-floor office.

Had now been converted into a haptic pod experience hall.

Hundreds of haptic pods were placed inside, making it convenient for these tycoons to personally experience virtual reality.

Suihuo Technology's goal in the arms industry was a monopoly.

But its goal in the virtual reality field was different. He wanted to share the virtual world and grow this pie together with everyone.

Suihuo Technology would only act as the rule-maker and collect handling fees.

Establishing a global virtual platform, that's how to make money... make a lot of money.

After all the internet tycoons were in place.

Lu Xingye finally arrived late, standing on the podium and shouting:

"Everyone."

"I am Lu Xingye, Chairman of Suihuo Technology."

"I now declare the Virtual Reality Summit officially open. Let us all welcome the arrival of the virtual era."

As soon as his voice fell.

All the lights in the experience hall went out, plunging it into inky darkness, where one couldn't see their hand in front of their face.

This sudden change made the tycoons' faces change, and they exclaimed, thinking something unexpected had happened.

They were about to take emergency measures.

The lights on the stage suddenly came on again.

No.

That's not right.

It wasn't that the lights came on.

But rather, the sky full of stars lit up.
