In a small villa with a wide backyard in Florida, a man was preparing to go to work when his wife suddenly ran to him with a tablet.

?Honey, check this out.?

?What?s the matter, my dear? Let me see…? The man took the tablet from his wife?s hands with a smile. He casually glanced at the news. However, two seconds later, he suddenly opened his eyes and couldn?t believe it. He mumbled, ?God, the world?s first VR merchandise exhibition, hundreds of millions of people participating in the grand event on the same stage. It will no longer just be enterprises ? consumers are also allowed to participate.?

The idea of hosting an exposition on the VR platform was undoubtedly a wild idea. However, no one doubted whether Future Technology had the capability. When this news was announced for the first time, almost all netizens felt their expectations lifting, and all the businessmen were keenly aware of the business opportunities.

This would break the business-to-business limitations in previous expositions, connecting businesses, and business through B2B while connecting businesses and consumers through B2C. The Expo would no longer just be a procurement conference for companies but would also be a promotional event for the products themselves!

?I must go to the company quickly. The boss will definitely be interested in this news.? The man kissed his wife on her forehead. He put the tablet in his briefcase and immediately rushed to the garage.

…

From large machinery, motorcycles, auto parts, chemical products, clocks, and watches, to kitchen utensils, ceramics, home decorations, medical equipment, menswear, and office stationery… This global merchandise expo covered almost every aspect of life and production. Over 500,000 pieces of goods would be exhibited and the duration of the exhibition was more than five months.

When McMillan proposed this proposal, Jiang Chen immediately agreed to his conditions without hesitation.

Scan 300,000 items for Walmart to enter the VRstore, and in the future, Walmart would be given the same priority as the other seven other e-commerce companies. For Future Technology, it was nothing difficult.

They would expand their staff and improve the efficiency of VR image production…

The monthly scanning quota would be raised to 400,000. The quota of 150,000 would be allocated to Walmart every month, just enough to meet their 300,000 target. The additional 100,000 units would be allocated to the VR Merchandise Exhibition, as long as the 500,000 items were scanned within five months.

If this merchandise exhibition was successful, it would definitely be a win-win situation for VRstore and Walmart!

?Socializing and shopping ? we can integrate the two! I suddenly thought of a brilliant idea!? Standing in Jiang Chen?s office, after reporting on the progress of the exposition, Ning Huajian suddenly began to sell to Jiang Chen his own idea.

?What idea?? Jiang Chen put down the file in his hands.

?Based on Godly Land, we can add a third function to the VRstore! Virtual City!?

?What?s the difference between this and our ?virtual mall mode??? asked Jiang Chen.

?The difference is huge!? said Ning Huajian with excitement. ?The virtual mall is a group shopping mode based on the friend system of the Phantom Helmet, similar to ?Lan.? The concept I proposed is more like an MMORPG.?

Upon hearing the word MMORPG, Jiang Chen suddenly understood what he meant. His eyes were filled with light.

?You mean…?

?Yeah! We can build a virtual city that will dynamically expand with the number of users, just like in Godly Land!?

?When shopping, people can also exchange ideas with users who are also shopping, become friends and invite each other into their own private spaces. Not only that ? when users meet their social needs in the virtual city, we can launch virtual prop buying features such as houses, cars, furniture, clothes, kitchen utensils… Before purchasing these things in the world, users can buy them in the virtual world as a trial.?

After listening, Jiang Chen?s eyes turned brighter.

?This idea is quite interesting.?

Inspiration was magical. Although it began with fragmented ideas, Ning Huajian?s?imaginative vision resonated with Jiang Chen. With an exchange of opinions between the two, these fragmented ideas were gradually pieced together into a complete puzzle.

?VRcity,? Jiang Chen suddenly said, interrupting Ning Huajian?s endless enthusiasm.

?What?? Ning Huajian paused.

?I said, VRcity.? Jiang Chen looked at Ning Huajian with passion. ?These ideas don?t need to stick to VRstore?s framework at all. We can completely set up a new project team to design a virtual social software called VRcity.?

?VRcity will include a virtual city that can expand based on the number of users, and it will be linked with VRstore and the Phantom Helmet login space! Users can use real money to buy real estate in the virtual city?s residential area, and the purchased property will serve as their own Phantom Helmet login interface!?

The excitement in Jiang Chen eyes was contagious to Ning Huajian.

?That?s awesome! The most frequent comments on our official website are that the white cube space is too ugly. But will the server resources be sufficient if you allow users to DIY their own room??

?They?re definitely enough!? Jiang Chen smiled.

The apocalypse had digested the commercial quantum computer production technology from Hong City. The first batch of commercial quantum computers had already left the production line and was transported to the modern world by Jiang Chen. Now that Future Group?s commercial quantum computer reserves reached 10, it was more than sufficient to support this project.

After downloading the VRstore, the user?s helmet would no longer appear in an isolated white cube. It would appear in a virtual room that would be far more beautiful and far more spacious than reality. With a push of the door, the user would welcome the entire virtual world.

Completing all kinds of interesting small tasks in a virtual city would grant the user virtual coin rewards. They could buy virtual products with virtual coins. If they were satisfied with the virtual product, they could jump directly to the interface linked with VRstore and throw this virtual product into their shopping cart.

If this idea could really be fulfilled, VRcity would be able to connect the entire VR world as one.

?For this virtual city, we can draw some of our staff from the operational team at Godly Land. For VRcity content, we can headhunt people from Rockstar and EA?s Maxis studio.?

Rockstar Studios was famous in the gaming industry. Its launch of the Grand Theft Auto series of urban-themed roleplaying games was widely acclaimed worldwide. Maxis was also a great studio, and the Sim City series was their masterpiece.

Recruiting talent from these two studios to design the ?game? nature of VRcity would definitely be the perfect combination.

Digging up people from these two studios wasn?t difficult with the financial resources of Future Technology.

?Boss, I feel like my inspiration is flowing like magma. I can?t stay here. I have to go back to the office and put everything on paper.?

Jiang Chen waved his hand. ?Then don?t talk nonsense. Go!?

?Yes!? Ning Huajian rushed out the door and ran to his office.
