Chapter 464: 447: Monster or Mascot<div>
25 million units of Mirage 2.0 hosts had been sold out even before the afternoon arrived.
ording to Mavis’s statistics, approximately 14 million units remained domestically, while the other 11 million units went overseas.
This might be the first time inte users in Daxia could directly feel thepetition from abroad.
It could be foreseen that foreign orders would upy an increasinglyrger proportion in the future, especially after the cooperation agreements with Australia and Russia are reached.
Building factories would obviously not be possible, so naturally, they would have to rely on exports.
Thus, Lincoln also started to seriously consider that it was time to expand his production capacity.<div>
Think of it as helping Daxia earn foreign exchange.
There was also an interesting fact: up to now, many countries that have never been covered by Cloud Dream’s services started to have Mirage users, in Europe, America, and even Africa!
They used various technical means to log into the servers of Cloud Dream, withstanding hightency, just to navigate in the virtual world.
Under such hightency, there was hardly any gaming experience to speak of.
And indeed, very few of them would y those intensepetitive games, most of them would leisurely travel around in various virtual worlds.
Of course, there were also those adamant yers who decided to endure the dizzyingg and positioning errors, insisting on ying intense gun fights and racing games…
By the afternoon, the chatter on the inte not only showed no signs of dying down, but instead was getting fiercer.
The quick sell-out of the Mirage hosts only sparked a brief discussion.
The majority of the heat was still on Alex’s concert and Cloud Dream’s live streaming tform.
Even unbelievably, a lot of audiences were passionate about asking streamers about their opinions on other live streaming tforms…
Super Tomato, Camille Victoria, Yi, Yng, etc., all encountered such questions.
Camille Victoria and Yi, who gained poprity riding the wave of virtual reality games and recently switched to advanced contracts, naturally had no way to “switch back” at this time.<div>
So they straightforwardly answered the audience: “The contract still has a long time to run, so we will not consider it for the time being.”
Super Tomato has the identity of a video uploader, which is more like his basepared to live streaming, so he would not easily switch tforms.
Yng is different from them.
He was a small streamer that no one had heard of before, the kind that tforms wouldn’t bother with, so he never signed a contract.
His actual rise to fame only came after he cross-dressed as a school girl…
This sudden poprity caused by unpredictable factors, it’s hard to say how long it canst, he even had doubts about the high achievement contracts required by the tform, with many objections in his heart.
His older sister took one look at the contract and told him to reject it outright, calling it a scam.
So he didn’t sign the contract…
Now seeing the news about Cloud Dream’s live broadcast tform, it was a pleasant surprise for Yng, who had made up his mind to leave even before Cloud Dream released more detailed regtions.
At this point, facing his fans’ questions, Yng who had made up his mind said without hesitation: “Let’s go! Let’s all go together!”
It’s not just that he wants to go, he even ns to help Cloud Dream attract users directly.
Rich Lord Chasing Wind, also ns to switch tforms.<div>
Among the Pay-To-Win Lords, some are really just ying for fun, they won’t sign any streamer contracts with any tform, they don’t care about the money, they just want to make a name for themselves and enjoy the thrill of being the center of attention.
These people are the most rxed.
Just like that, streamers expressed their decisions with either trepidation, indifference, or recklessness.
The super administrators of each live streaming tform also took action and started issuing warnings to some overly arrogant streamers.
At this point, the tforms had received a promise from Lincoln via Leander that he would not ban other tforms from live streaming Cloud Dream’s games, so they could finally loosen their grip.
Before receiving this promise, they didn’t dare to warn arrogant streamers, letting them curse the tform during live broadcasts, revealing the tform’s weaknesses, and even poaching the tform’s users in their live broadcast rooms, it was all too frustrating.
At 2:00 PM, Cloud Dream’s live broadcast tform officially went online.
Virtual Reality Port, Client, Webpage, Mobile App went online simultaneously.
The reason for the dy was due to further minor adjustments and corrections to the live streaming software aftermunicating with Leander’s team.
Leander, who was busy working, was dumbfounded when he saw all the modifications that had been mentioned a few hours ago were nowpletely done.
Especially when he found out that from 12 o’clock to 2 o’clock in the afternoon, except for special circumstances, everyone at Cloud Dream was really taking a break and not working much.
That is to say, all the modifications werepleted in less than 2 hours after they proposed the modifications!<div>
Furthermore, after testing the software on different tforms, he was surprised to find that no matter which tform, the operation was smooth and perfect, without any bugs.
That is to say, the testing is probably already done!
What a godly programming team!
Until now, he still thinks that this multi-tformpatible live streaming software was made by a whole team of programmers.
When he looked at that [Dream] in the contact list again, he was beyond amazed.
No wonder Lincoln would introduce this pink-haired girl to everyone so solemnly in front of tens of millions ofizens.
Because she is a true and unparalleled genius!
This little girl, who left Leander in utter shock, was now wandering around Cloud Dream’s virtual office.
Ever since Lincoln formally introduced her to the world, Mavis no longer had to hide. When she was bored, she would often run around in the virtual world.
Sometimes she would even join a team to help with work, depending on her mood.
Of course, Mavis didn’t go all out, but performed at an efficiency close to 80% of Lincoln’s – she had to leave some face for her master!
Even so, it left everyone in awe, even casting doubt on their own lives.<div>
Most Cloud Dream employees, after joining Cloud Dream, never cked off. Coupled with their previous umtion, they had a high opinion of their own technological capabilities.
As for Lincoln’s iparable skills, everyone considered it to be normal. After all, Lincoln was the pioneer of technology and a “monster” level genius.
So no matter how brilliant Lincoln was, it couldn’t affect their “pride and passion”.
But Mavis, a pink-haired little lolita who popped up from nowhere, suddenly demonstrated technology skills of a crushing level, which was a different matter!
During this period, who knows how many Cloud Dream employees’ confidence got shattered, leaving shards of ss scattered around.
Therefore, in the hearts of Cloud Dream employees, Mavis had two distinctly different identities:
In the eyes of non-technical staff, Mavis was the adorable mascot.
But in the eyes of technical staff, Mavis was a terrifying monster.
Even more terrifying than Lincoln!
At least Lincoln was 22 years old, he was an adult, okay!
This little girl, she looked no more than 10 years old!
At this age, she outperformed all the technical gurus in thepany, what will happen when she bes an adult?!<div>
The technical staff shuddered at the thought of it, but at the same time, they couldn’t help but feel curious, wanting to explore her limits.
In the end, this little girl, whom the technical staff were both curious to get close to and fearful to approach, came to the circr concert hall in Night City’s development world.
Here, final preparations were being made for the uing concert.
Camille Victoria, known as Princess, unlike the experienced and calm Alex, wasn’t veryposed.
Even the songs that had been etched into her heart, which she had sung many times and was very familiar with, she suddenly began to frequently forget the lyrics.
Mavis was hiding under the stage, and whenever the princess forgot her lyrics, sheughed gleefully.
She also didn’t forget to record it, preserving one piece of embarrassing history.
Until Lincoln came over after his boxing training, gently knocked on the top of her head, and pulled her out from her seat.
The preparations for the concert had actually beenpleted long ago.
The so-called “final preparations” were all about the performers, Alex, Camille Victoria, the band, and the stage design team making the final adjustments to their mental state.
Thanks to the virtual world having no sense of fatigue, everyone was able to practice repeatedly without any psychological pressure.
Even if the performancested for several hours, they could ensure that their condition wouldn’t noticeably decline and could devote all their attention to giving the audience a more perfect performance.
The only obstacle they needed to ovee was psychological.
After all, this was the first virtual concert in history, and they were likely to perform in front of tens of millions of people at the same time – even though visually, they might only see fewer than ten thousand.
But Fred had told them that through mirror technology, the circr concert hall would amodate all the yers to watch the concert at the same time.
At least five million, and no upper limit!
In addition, the performance would be recorded in its entirety, not only current yers would be able to repeatedly experience it.
Countless future new yers would also be able to revisit this concert in the circr concert hall.
One can imagine the tremendous psychological pressure this put on them.
Only Alex could handle it calmly.
As time passed, the arrival of the virtual concert was approaching.
The excitement of theizens could no longer be contained.
A few hours ahead of time, Night City hit its peak daily online rate, and the circr concert hall was already jam-packed.
Even though the officials had announced: the best audio-visual experience would be in the individual world where they could upy the best front row seats at their discretion and it would be best to disconnect the online function.
But many yers would rather be randomly thrown into a corner by the system, they wanted to enter the public version, to watch the concert with other fans, to sing along together, to transmit their enthusiasm and joy to Alex.
Instead of being lonely, listening to songs with a bunch of NPCs.
On the Cloud Dream Live Streaming tform,munications expert Leander and his team members started experiencing the terrifying influence of Alex an hour early.
One hour before the concert began, the live broadcast room, which only disyed the outside scenery of the circr concert hall, weed 3.8 million online viewers, gathering in the live broadcast room for heated discussions.
From time to time, you could even see many words from other countries popping up.
Not only Izumo, Baekje, and Southeast Asian countries, but evennguages from Europe and America!
As time ticked by, the number of online viewers and the outpouring ofments were still increasing, and the growth rate was getting more and more exaggerated.
Leander, watching the soaring data, had his heart racing. He was so excited that he felt like he needed a few quick-acting heart-saving pills!
This was a dream start for them!
The virtual concert today, the indiscriminate death race the day after tomorrow, the Card King and Mahjong God contest the day after that…
Just thinking about it, Leander felt so happy he could faint!
But at this highly anticipated moment, there were still some yers nning to break the norm.
In a civilian house on the public map, less than forty meters away from the circr concert hall, twelve yers gathered.
“Everyone ready?”
“Ready.”
“Then let’s go in!”
“Onest reminder: don’t reveal your identity too early. If you get caught, make sure you go down quick, and most importantly: absolutely do not reveal your identity!”
These yers stuffed masks with a mahjong shape into their bags, got up and left the house, heading towards the entrance of the circr concert hall.
