After half a month of military operations in the Belém Devon region of Somalia, NATO successfully captured the warlord-controlled area . At the same time, the United Nations was pressured by various parties to eventually issue a controversial document .
The zombies were defined as unnatural deaths, allowing the army to kill zombies .
Interestingly, when discussing this issue, many countries stubbornly voted against it for strange reasons . For example, the reason why France voted against it was because there was no death penalty in the country . Therefore, it wouldn't vote on this solution involving the death penalty . But India was even odder - their reasoning behind their vote was because they thought the living dead were servants of Shiva . . .
In any case, even if it was controversial, this long-overdue document was passed through the efforts of all parties .
NATO sent two tank companies and cleared out the zombies from the infected area on the border between Somalia and Ethiopia with the help of drones . At the same time, far on the other side of the world, the self-defense forces and UA troops stationed in Napon began to enter the quarantined Shinagawa area of Yoto and cleared out zombies there .
The vaccines launched by 11 global pharmaceutical companies in cooperation with Future Biology had fully entered the market . It was expected that in the next four months, it would be sufficient to popularize in the world's major countries . Based on the patent fee of 1 . 50 per vaccine, it was expected that in the next four months, Future Biology would receive 5 . 7 billion US Dollar in revenue .
The figure was almost equivalent to four years of Future Biology's net profits .
However, as a cost, granting the licensing of the technology meant overdrawing the potential profits of the T virus vaccine . After all, other pharmaceutical companies were more dominant in terms of production scale; even if the cost had an additional 1 . 50 in royalties, this cost could easily be made up elsewhere .
In the past few days in Yoto, Jiang Chen headhunted a professional manager and formed a professional real estate management team to manage the 11 billion USD of real estate he acquired in Yoto . He was responsible for the maintenance of buildings and leasing of shops .
At Yoto International Airport, Qian Xia waved at Jiang Chen emotionally .
The day before leaving Yoto, Jiang Chen eventually showed his claws to Qian Xia in her maid uniform . At first, she resisted somewhat, but it didn't take long before she obeyed while incoherently murmuring some words .
Maybe it was because the pain of the first time was unforgettable, or maybe it was because of other reasons . After that night, Jiang Chen felt that she looked at him with eyes containing a different glory .
"Will master still come back?" Qian Xia buried her head and whispered in a low voice .
"Occasionally perhaps . "
"Then . . . when I graduate, could I go to Xin to find you?"
"Of course . "
Jiang Chen tousled her head and didn't say much in terms of a farewell . He then turned and boarded the Gulfstream G650 private jet at the airport .
Under her watchful gaze, the plane disappeared into the distant horizon .
Soon after Jiang Chen returned to Xin, Future Technology and Amazon, eBay, Taobao, Jingdong and many other e-commerce giants published announcements on their official websites simultaneously .
At the same time, the Phantom Helmet also welcomed its second system update . After the update, an application management program appeared on the interface . Just like Apple's App Store and Android's Android Market, Phantom's Helmets also allowed users to download apps freely .
However, at present, although Future Group announced VR program development tools and provided server rental services, no company could demonstrate the advantages of the VR platform . They had been investigating how to transfer existing applications to the VR platform .
So, for now, aside from the web browser, only two applications existed in the application management program .
One was the Godly Land, and the other was the newly launched virtual reality online shopping platform – VRstore .
The newly launched VRstore currently had two modes .
One was a simple mode combining plane images and VR images . Users could search for items just like on traditional e-commerce stores and find what they wanted in the shortest amount of time . The only difference was that the searched items could be held directly in hand, and the searched clothes could be directly worn .
The other mode was the virtual mall mode . After entering this mode, the user would appear on a virtual street designed by Future Technology, which referenced New York's Times Square and other famous commercial streets . According to a certain algorithm, the goods and decorations in the shops were randomly processed, so that the user could experience and enjoy randomized products with their friends .
According to the news released by Future Technology, there were seven e=commerce giants that joined the VRstore . On the first day of the VRstore launch, all the top shops of the seven giants were made available with a grand total of 800,000 products available .
Many users who tried the VRstore experienced the joy of VR shopping . While the sales volume continued to rise, this powerful VRstore was also positively rated by users .
"The skirt I purchased is already here . It's amazing . It's exactly the same as I saw in the VRstore!"
"I used to be unwilling to buy expensive clothes online . Not to mention size, but what I wear and what models wear seem completely different . Now it's okay, I can try clothes in a VR environment and find things that really suit me . "
"It's crazy, how did Future Technology do it?"
"It's a pity there's no tasting function . If the taste of food could be replicated, I'd be able to eat in the virtual mall . . . I wonder if you can be full in the virtual world?"
"My God, my wallet! How did I spend so much money! Oh . . . "
For technical reasons, VR images of products were currently produced by Future Technology . Therefore, images of these 800,000 products were randomly selected, sent to Future Technology's headquarters, and scanned using special equipment, producing high-resolution VR images .
As for the VR image production fees for products, Jiang Chen didn't scam them and charged them a cost of 1,000 US Dollar per item . And for the products registered in the VRstore, a monthly data management fee of 10 US Dollar was charged .
Compared with the profits gained from the VRstore, the investment was definitely worth the money .
Phantom helmets had reached hundreds of millions of active users worldwide, and VRstore was one of the only two applications which created strong exposure . Controlling such a large amount of traffic, the price could double and shops would still be willing to pay .
In addition, advertising and other costs were calculated separately and were quite pricey . If the product was on VRstore's homepage recommendation list, the revenue of the shop would have to be divided equally with Future Technology . Even though the price was a bit high, there was still a stream of shops that applied for front page exposure .
These charges, together with data management fees, were the two major revenue streams for VRstore .
Some analysts realized that the launch of VRstore would signal a new period of downward trends for physical stores .
For example, the British "Observer Daily" had thoroughly analyzed this issue .
"We had optimistic thoughts that online shopping would never replace physical stores and would affect the spending habits of some people at the most . Physical stores have an advantage that online shopping can't replace, such as intuitively touching the products you want to purchase, and the fun in shopping itself . These are elements not available in online shopping . "
"Now, VRstore seems to have done it - everything that online shopping was unable to do . Maybe this will be a start to completely rewriting the landscape of the global retail industry . "
