The virtual empire starts from the game

Chapter 464 Xu Meng's "Scam" and the Dream Machine National Subsidy (asking for monthly tickets)
It’s not just Happy and Superman whose worldview has been impacted.

Click on Qihuahua in the Sprawling City promotional video [Health Tea Party], click on Yanluo in the Lord of War promotional video [Veteran], click on Huanyue in the Monster Hunter promotional video [Seasoned Hunter].

Thousands of other players and netizens who watched these four promotional videos were shocked by the huge contrast and their brains were blank.

The so-called [health tea party] is actually not healthy at all.

Although the content of the promotional video is very similar to the advertisement of a real-life elderly tour group, it is about a group of silver-haired elderly people traveling in the city, eating, drinking and having fun.

But in terms of specific sightseeing projects, the intensity is obviously exceeded.

Racing with hover cars.

Enjoy a sumptuous meal at a luxurious restaurant.

Run to the central square to dance square dance.

Challenge yourself to climb a 15-meter-high climbing wall without protection in the climbing gym.

Fight mixed martial arts in the Sky Arena ring.

Fully armed, engaging in live-fire confrontation in a complex indoor environment.

……

Various sightseeing projects that are completely outrageous for the elderly are performed one by one.

[Experienced Hunter] can be regarded as an answer to a question that Monster Hunter players often complain about:
"Why are there only battle-hardened ancient dragons but no battle-hardened old hunters?"

There it is now.

The content of the trailer itself is relatively conventional, not far from the wonderful hunting highlights edited by many players themselves.

At most, the camera scheduling is more professional and the special effects rendering is more gorgeous.

But every hunter is a white-haired old man or woman.

This is a completely different perception!
An aging body is combined with a flexible and vigorous passion for life.

The visual impact is very strong!
Among all the four trailers, the one with the strongest visual impact is the "Veteran" of "Lord of War"——

A group of old men and women, holding guns, marched with vigorous steps through the smoke of the battlefield and charged into the hail of bullets!

As they charged, they poured fire on the enemy lines.

Under the incredible immersive effect of the Dream Machine, even veteran players who play Lord of War every day will instinctively shrink and dodge when facing enemy firepower.

But this group of old men and women were so calm when they charged!
Even if the bullets passed by them at a very close distance, it would not affect their charge at all.

It was not until the confrontation became more and more intense that they were no longer in a "picnic" state, but devoted themselves to the battle.

After fully engaging, their momentum became even more astonishing, and they defeated the enemy step by step.

In this vigorous advance, these aging warriors suddenly changed.

The pale and dry hair turned black little by little, and the deep wrinkles were quickly smoothed out.

The skinny body slowly became fuller.

Their steps became bigger and bigger, and their voices became more and more powerful!
Until the final victory was achieved, the people standing in front of the camera were no longer the silver-haired old men and women at the beginning.

Instead, they are a group of young people with thick black hair and strong and sturdy bodies!

……

All the audience who saw this segment were shocked beyond words.

Equally outrageous are the promotional ads at the end of the four trailers:

After the white-haired old man and old woman took off the brain wave signal collector and woke up from the game world, a large and bold advertisement popped up on the screen:

[New dream technology is coming soon!]
[From now on, Dream Machine will start age subsidies]
[60% discount for users over 5 years old! ]
[70% discount for users over 10 years old! ]
[80% discount for users over 20 years old! ]
[90% discount for users over 40 years old! ]
[Free gift for users over 100 years old! ]——
When netizens see these promotions, their first reaction is: Is DreamBuilding doing something funny?
But they soon realized: Impossible!

Dream Building is for the sake of one's own reputation, and it is impossible to lie to others for no reason.

Then, they immediately thought of using the identity of grandpa/grandma/grandma/grandpa to buy the dream machine.

After all, the discount is so huge!
Even with the lowest discount, you can save 1490 yuan at once!
After that, the money you can save doubles with each age stage.

Such a discount is rare!
It's really hard not to be tempted.

This clear promotion also makes everyone sure that Dream Building is not a joke.

Then the social network suddenly exploded:
"What did I see??? An old man playing games?? And he was so good at it?" "I don't think today is April Fools' Day?"

"Is this ad serious? Subsidy for senior citizens?? Can I ask my grandpa to buy me a dream machine?"

"No, buddy, isn't my "Frost and Snow Project" worthy of being on the table?"

"Rejuvenation! Rejuvenation! Boss Xu has come up with a new technology without saying anything!"

……

There are people talking about all kinds of topics.

But the most exciting thing is undoubtedly the scene in the "Lord of War" trailer where the elderly players become younger while charging.

Making the elderly young again is explosive news for those in high positions of power and who control resources around the world.

All of a sudden, countless media outlets around the world began to sing praises for Xu Meng.

Only Wu Shuang, who had just finished a series of reports, was a little stunned:

Didn’t Xu Meng just say that he wanted to study this, but he hasn’t even found all the volunteers yet?
How come it's finished all of a sudden???

She immediately called Xu Meng and found out after asking:
These promotional videos were a "scam" carefully prepared by Xu Meng for the volunteers.

"Dreams" have infinite possibilities.

But this infinite possibility is limited by human thinking.

If you want the elderly to really regain their youth in the game, there is a key difficulty to overcome -

We must make them believe that they can really become younger in the world of games.

This is not an easy task.

The elderly have entered the last stage of their lives. Their thinking has long been solidified and their acceptance of new things has been greatly reduced.

It is extremely difficult to change those solidified concepts, make the elderly change their common sense, shake their subconscious, and believe from the bottom of their hearts that they can return to youth!
I'm afraid it's far from enough to rely solely on the guidance of psychology experts.

Therefore, Xu Meng planned to first make the whole world believe that he had completed the research and development of this technology.

Given his amazing achievements in scientific research in the past year, almost no one doubted whether he could do it.

Looking at the voices on the Internet now, this is indeed the case -

Everyone was surprised that Xu Meng once again created a miracle and made a major technological breakthrough.

No one ever suspected that it was fake.

——Not only did no one doubt it, netizens even started writing outrageous advertising slogans for Zhumeng.

If nothing unexpected happens, by now countless young people around the world will be holding their mobile phones and introducing this incredible technology to their elders.

In this way, the volunteers will be immersed in the surging tide of public opinion before starting the experiment.

Old ideas and subconscious thoughts that are as solid as a rock will also change unconsciously.

Then psychology experts will give it a push!
The success rate will definitely increase greatly!
Xu Meng then recorded the changes in mentality and brain wave signals of those successful volunteers during their [rejuvenation] process.

You can hold the key to the [rejuvenation] technology!

Wu Shuang understood Xu Meng's plan and immediately reported it to his superiors to help him improve the plan.

So, the next day, netizens were shocked to see a piece of news:

[Dream Machine officially joins the national subsidy list, and the elderly can enjoy additional subsidies for purchasing new products at an advanced age! ]
In order to promote residents' consumption, the Xia Kingdom has been implementing a national subsidy policy, with quite good results.

Now that the dream machine has been included in the national subsidy, it is of course great news that everyone will welcome.

But the added “exclusive subsidy for the elderly” is quite meaningful.

Even though [Return to Youth] was not mentioned at all in the official announcement, it greatly increased the credibility of this matter!

This is especially true for older people who have high trust in officials!

It is in this context that elderly volunteers from all over the country, with different ages, identities and educational backgrounds, have joined Xu Meng's new project.

The first experiment of [Rejuvenation] officially begins.
-
At the same time, the development team of "Frost and Snow Project" also began to work overtime.

They had to urgently produce a batch of good-looking but conservative uniforms for the characters.

To cope with the sudden surge in elderly users in recent days!
