"A truly aningful virtual reality? ... But how is that possible?" Zhang Manlin shook her head and said, "That’s impossible. Developing a truly aningful virtual reality isn’t sothing that can be done so easily. Even though I’ve heard the concept before, I know just how difficult it is to achieve such a true virtual reality. I really can’t believe your story!"
Zhang Manlin shook her head and said.
"I know it’s hard for you to believe, but if you try it, you’ll find out." Jiang Cheng said with a faint smile.
"Alright!" Zhang Manlin nodded.
Then, Zhang Manlin put on the virtual reality glasses Jiang Cheng handed her— to her, it seed no different from ordinary VR glasses. True virtual reality... that’s just a joke!
"I’ve activated the device, see you in virtual reality." Jiang Cheng said beside her, helping Zhang Manlin activate the virtual reality glasses.
Imdiately, Zhang Manlin saw a white vortex appear in front of her, growing larger and larger... Her mind beca increasingly hazy, and soon, she fell completely asleep.
When Zhang Manlin "woke up" again, she found herself in a vast white world. She looked around, sowhat bewildered, and took a mont to react.
There was nothing around, no, Jiang Cheng was not far from her.
Jiang Cheng was sitting on a chair, holding a green apple in his hand, biting into it casually, while watching Zhang Manlin.
"Where is this?" Zhang Manlin asked Jiang Cheng as she gradually ca around, asking subconsciously.
"This is a virtual world." Jiang Cheng rolled his eyes and said listlessly.
"A virtual world...?" Zhang Manlin’s eyes were wide with shock, "This is real! No, that’s impossible! How can it be real, but, but this... this this! It seems...!"
"Of course. The tis are advancing so fast that you must adapt to the new era anyti, anywhere." Jiang Cheng smiled slightly.
"A new era... this is the new era where virtual reality has been invented." Zhang Manlin looked at her hand. To be honest, even now, she found it sowhat unbelievable that such a fact was like a dream.
"We’ll continue discussing a series of upcoming developnt plans for the company here." Jiang Cheng said, extending his hand and snapping his fingers.
Then, a chair appeared next to her— he was the creator of this virtual world, with the full power of a creator.
Zhang Manlin nodded, then sat down and began to discuss the future developnt of the company with Jiang Cheng— her adaptability was truly excellent, and after accepting the fact, she quickly adjusted her ntality and identity, constantly thinking about what to do!
Just as Jiang Cheng said, she must adapt to the new era anyti, anywhere, and create a new era under Jiang Cheng’s leadership! Much of her effort went into creating a new era!
Zhang Manlin quickly proved her value and showed that Jiang Cheng’s eye for talent wasn’t wrong— she exhibited superlative professional managerial skills. Within just a few days, she succeeded in setting up Jiang Cheng’s company, achieving this all on her own.
For her, these days were extrely difficult, while Jiang Cheng lived too easily, not dealing with any matters, leaving everything for her to handle.
From large to small aspects, all sorts of things were placed before her, and she only had three to four hours of sleep each day. The prolonged state of ntal stress nearly caused her to collapse!
Honestly, when she ca here to seek a job, she didn’t expect to be this busy, this tense. It had far exceeded her job responsibilities— but, although it was tough, Zhang Manlin never once complained.
With a world-changing project and a startup funding of 10 billion USD, she often fantasized about starting her own business years ago. However, as she gradually integrated into society, she realized the world wasn’t so simple.
When she worked as a manager in these companies, she wasn’t able to fully utilize even one-tenth of her potential because the company’s systems were already fixed, and many of the boss’s relatives couldn’t be moved.
At that ti, she often recalled the words her ntor had told her during university: "The world isn’t that simple, you have to consider every aspect of things."
Perfectionism doesn’t apply in many situations because, sotis, compromises must be made. If you want to be perfect, you have to have diplomatic skills.
This is the way of life.
While in university, Zhang Manlin respected her ntor, but she dismissed this statent. She believed these words were uttered by those who had compromised to reality. Her ambitions and ideals would never compromise with reality.
However, when she entered the workplace and beca a senior executive at several companies, she suddenly found that even though she was in a high position, there were too many institutional constraints, and even if she did not compromise, she realized the harshness of reality.
Zhang Manlin always dread of one day starting her own business, and now, she finally attained her wish.
So, though the current stage is difficult, she’s already imrsed herself in it, feeling the joy of the company’s birth palpable in her hands.
The company is located in a high-rise building in the center of the new tech park in Kyoto, Hua Country. The entire floor belongs to Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company, covering an area of over 300,000 square ters.
Inside the company, there are various zones with all kinds of equipnt and everything available— nearly 2,000 employees, all of whom previously worked at various other companies. So have abilities but couldn’t shine. Now, given the chance, she would naturally, without hesitation, attract them.
In fact, among these people, so were unwilling to leave their original cities, and so couldn’t move due to family reasons. As a result, many were sowhat dissatisfied, but had no choice but to gradually fade away...
The chairman’s office.
As the chairman of the company and owner of 95% of the shares, Jiang Cheng is the bona fide boss.
5% of the shares were given to Zhang Manlin— he certainly knows how much that 5% of shares will be worth in the future, conservatively estimated to increase a thousand tis!
However, since Zhang Manlin is her CEO and president, giving her so shares is also part of her motivation for hard work.
As long as the public gradually rises, her shares will naturally increase in value. This is a very simple reason, and Jiang Cheng is definitely not a short-sighted person.
At this mont, Jiang Cheng is discussing company matters with Zhang Manlin.
"Chairman," Zhang Manlin said seriously, "there are currently only two major issues—"
Zhang Manlin thought for a mont, then quickly said, "The first is the cost of virtual reality devices. Even though I’ve spent so ti contacting familiar suppliers, the cost can’t be reduced. Currently, the material cost of a virtual reality headset is at least between 150,000 and 200,000.
150,000 for the standard version, 200,000 for the more comfortable deluxe version. If we go to market, the pricing must be at least between 250,000 and 250,000 to break even.
However, under such circumstances, ordinary families simply can’t afford it, and our developnt could face financial shortfalls. After all, once research and developnt are completed, we still need extensive promotion!
This is the first issue worth deep contemplation.
