Chapter 1349: Chapter 1348: Unexpected Situation

Hua Family Country, Wu City.

The whirlwind in the business world some time ago still seems incredulous to many people.

The leader of Celestial Dynasty Network Technology Company, the industry leader, saw Tencent Company change ownership almost overnight. The former chairman, Chen Hualuo, was also imprisoned due to economic crimes. A small tech company with a registered capital of just a million officially announced becoming the major shareholder of Tencent, taking control of it. Everything was completed in just a few days, making it hard for everyone to believe.

Currently, the technological centers of the entire Hua Family are in two cities: Sun Jing and Wu City. Wu City’s sector is mainly controlled by several giant companies. Besides Tencent Company, there’s Rice Company, Koala Company, and Jingxi Group.

Koala Company is also a tech company, with its main business in video games. It’s an emerging company in recent years, with a subtle intention of snatching business from Tencent.

Jingxi Group is an established e-commerce group, mainly running an online mall. It’s one of the few e-commerce groups in the country that can compete with Yanbang’s Alibaba Group, owned by Liu Qiangxi.

Now, Tencent Company no longer exists, replaced by Existence Technology Co., Ltd. The original Tencent Company’s businesses are operating normally, making it a subsidiary of Existence Technology Co., Ltd. Hence, Existence Technology has quickly risen to become one of the top three tech companies in Wu City.

Jiang Cheng looked at the documents in front of him, feeling a bit of a headache. Although he took over Tencent Company, his own child, Existence Technology, does not have much business for some reason. In theory, the prospects of the Virtual Reality System are visible to everyone, yet no clients are coming in.

Indeed, everyone knows the potential of the Virtual Reality System, but no one dares to be the first to take the plunge. Regarding this technology, the country’s stance is still unclear, and few companies dare to be the trailblazer. You see, Tencent Company called people in to discuss business, even the boss got involved, so Existence Technology Co., Ltd. remains at a standstill.

After thinking for a while, Jiang Cheng slapped his thigh and made a decision. From today, Existence Technology will not just take on tasks; we’ll do it ourselves!

Soon, a piece of news spread throughout the tech industry.

Existence Technology Co., Ltd. announced its first-ever virtual reality game, set to release in two months, built with an exclusive massive investment.

This news quickly ignited the tech and gaming sectors. Virtual reality games had been proposed long ago, but without the support of mature VR technology, those games quickly fell flat. However, Existence Technology Co., Ltd. is different. They have truly mastered the Virtual Reality System technology, which is well-known, and with the foundation of the established gaming company Tencent, one can imagine this will be a revolutionary product in the gaming world.

According to the announcement, this game will be Tencent’s only completely free game without any in-game purchases, a boon for gamers worldwide.

At this time, Jiang Cheng was at home playing a gunfight game called "Escape from the Deserted Island." Unlike other players, Jiang Cheng was playing the virtual reality version.

Yes, this is the very game mentioned in the morning’s announcement from Existence Technology. Jiang Cheng had successfully completed the game’s development; only the visuals and details needed refinement, hence the release date was set for two months later.

Jiang Cheng invited Jiang Qing’Er to play with him; otherwise, the game would be so dull without anyone else. The two just sat on the sofa without much movement, but their expressions showed they were having a lot of fun. The fluctuating expressions, whether tense, excited, or frustrated, demonstrated the game’s excitement.

Without realizing it, the sky turned dark, and finally, the two exited the game. "Wow!" Jiang Qing’Er exclaimed as soon as she was out. "It’s so fun! It’s completely different from playing on a computer! It’s so cool!" It was really thrilling. Jiang Qing’Er believed that this game could definitely become a global sensation.

You should follow up on the game’s final development tomorrow. Spare no expense, and strive for perfection!" Jiang Cheng commanded seriously. He decided to use this game to raise Existence Technology Co., Ltd.’s profile and let the whole world know about it!

Two months later, Existence Technology Co., Ltd. held a press conference, officially releasing the globally awaited virtual reality game called "Escape from the Wild."

The game was still accessed via the Rice Bracelet. Players only needed to bind their online accounts with the Rice Bracelet to download the game.

The game follows a battle royale round-based mode. Each game features one hundred players, who become special operatives in-game. At the start of each match, players are flown to this deserted island, choosing their landing spot themselves. The deserted island has weapons, medicines, and other resources, along with sporadic air-drops and bombings.

The game will only end when there is one player remaining in the team, with the last surviving player crowned the victor.

In the game, there will be a designated safe zone, which will continuously shrink. Players outside the safe zone will suffer poison erosion, and only by quickly entering the safe zone can they avoid the toxic interference.

After the press conference ended, the website’s traffic spiked immediately. If it weren’t for the technical team’s preemptive maintenance, the traffic alone would have been enough to crash the site.

The game was initially released only in Hua Family Country, leaving overseas players longing for it. It’s said that foreign websites continuously protested, but Jiang Cheng didn’t care about those voices. Until a suitable agent emerges, let those foreigners be envious and jealous!

Sales of the Rice Bracelet doubled due to the game! Lei Bin couldn’t stop smiling; since Jiang Cheng authorized the system, Rice Company’s profits have risen dramatically. This is going to be massive!

Soon, the game sparked a battle royale frenzy in Hua Family Country. Everyone had played shooting games before. But a virtual reality version?

The immersive feeling. It’s completely like fighting. Everyone has a battle dream, even just a little. Enjoying the game so freely and thoroughly used to be unimaginable! Soon, Existence Technology Co., Ltd.’s name entered everyone’s awareness, and Jiang Cheng gradually became known to many.

And Jiang Cheng? He was still idly at home. Jiang Qing’Er managed all the company’s affairs efficiently, making Jiang Cheng glad he had recruited her in the first place.

The company gradually got on track, the game ran smoothly without any incidents, and Jiang Cheng’s days were peaceful and comfortable. However, in stark contrast, was Koala Company at this time.
