BUILDING A GAMING EMPIRE FROM SCRATCH

Chapter 1321: Chapter 1185 “Digital Life” Mining, Accelerate!

Monday is the day that Mirage updates.

After the update, virtual offices will no longer be the exclusive privilege of Cloud Dream and some game development companies.

The notion that “starting a company requires renting an office with a prime location and convenient transportation” will face an unprecedented strong impact.

Therefore, Monday is also the day when real estate stocks plummet.

For overseas markets, it means real estate stocks join the ranks of semiconductor and technology stocks, plummeting joyously together.

For Daxia, it means that while the whole country is on the rise, only real estate is falling.

It’s not just financial institutions and stock investors who expect this; even netizens who never touch stocks have this expectation.

Thus, while playing the game demo of [Cradle Plan], netizens have also been anticipating the performance of domestic real estate companies.

But unfortunately, they didn’t get to see much excitement.

Besides some companies issuing announcements that their main focus is on “non-office building” businesses like residential housing and improved construction, trying to dissociate themselves from the issue, there hasn’t been much other activity.

Some companies did attempt to reach out to superior management departments, hoping to stop Cloud Dream’s action through official power.

The authorities did not refuse.

But neither did they agree.

——The authorities turned a blind eye.

In the long run, the innovation of productivity tools has never been a bad thing, and growing pains are inevitable.

As long as it doesn’t affect the ordinary citizens’ work and housing, it’s totally bearable.

Not to mention, ever since the [focus headband] was fully deployed, the decision-makers had begun to accelerate the transition from [industrial power] to [dual-driven by industry and technology].

With the significant advantage of carbon-based chips, some real estate growing pains, which don’t relate to the national housing issue, really can’t disrupt the big picture.

Instead, microchips received strong publicity over the weekend.

Since Cloud Dream had already gone public with the technology, there was no need to hide it anymore.

During the golden time slot of Daxia TV national news, the authorities publicly disclosed the name of this microchip — [Xuan Mo], and highly praised its breakthrough and its significant impact on the global technology industry’s upgrade.

Of course, “global technology industry upgrade” is still just a phrase for the time being.

Currently, all the production capacity of [Xuan Mo] chips will be supplied to Cloud Dream.

In one month, a third will be allocated to domestic scientific research institutions and a small quantity will be provided to domestic technology companies for the research and design of new products.

In two months, Cloud Dream, research institutions, and domestic technology companies will each take a third.

After three months, there’s no need to consider the division anymore.

Because Daxia’s production capacity will be able to keep up with the national demand.

As for the needs of overseas companies, well…

a few samples can be sent, but if they want large-scale supply, then sorry — the capacity is insufficient.

Wait for half a year, or wait until [Xuan Mo] breaks through the 28nm process and upgrades to the second generation.

Over the weekend, those large enterprises overseas certainly could not just watch their market value fall, so they flocked to Xiajing City by plane.

But upon landing in Xiajing City, aside from contributing a little to the GDP, they achieved nothing.

The research and development of graphene chips has always been led by the officials and kept confidential throughout the process — after all, it initially involved [Hibernation Technology].

If domestic companies are clueless about the situation, how could they possibly help foreign companies to get involved?

We are competitors now, okay?!

Thus, employees from technology companies from all over the world and from all provinces of the country almost filled up Xiajing’s major business hotels.

Everyone was busy like flies trying frantically to find connections and pathways.

In the midst of chaos and turmoil, Monday arrived.

Mirage was updated.

Cloud Dream didn’t even wait until 9 o’clock but considerately started the update at 8:30 in the morning to coincide with companies’ work hours.

By the time people started going to work, the faster-acting companies could enter the virtual office to work right away.

Of course, probably not many companies would actually do this.

After all, “decorating” a virtual office would take some time.

Who could resist working in a luxurious, spacious environment facing the sea?

Not to mention that what the virtual world can achieve is far more exaggerated—

As long as the boss agrees, employees could work while floating in the Dead Sea basking in the sun or in the hedonistic underground clubs of Night City while taking a bath, or even in a zero-gravity space station, on airships, in hot air balloons, on rooftops, in hot springs, at a concert scene…

Anyway, as long as you wish and your boss does not oppose it, the virtual world can offer unimaginable freedom.

And all of this is for free.

Pay-to-win items only exist in some of Cloud Dream’s upgraded, more powerful, and user-friendly intelligent office tools.

The virtual office space itself is completely free, available for application with just a company’s business license and legal ID.

Who knows how many small companies nationwide, globally, have temporarily halted operations, with all employees exploring this entirely new work format together.

Even Super Tomato got up early, using their registered studio as the entity, to apply for a virtual office to experience.

—With a prominent influencer like him, even without setting up a studio, he still had registered a personal company.

He didn’t spend much time on the experience since the virtual office space shared many commonalities with the virtual houses players had been using, making it very easy to pick up.

But after the experience, he was puzzled, “How can Cloud Dream make this work?

Offering so much space for free, how much computing power does that consume?

Do they really have surplus computing power to waste?”

Many people had the same question.

Netizens, after some discussion, came to the preliminary conclusion that the newly listed [Graphene] microchips must offer a significant performance boost, greatly reducing computing power costs.

Therefore, Cloud Dream chose this critical moment to launch.

But what they didn’t know was: yes, this factor played a role, but it wasn’t significant.

In reality, the more users online in the virtual world, the more abundant Cloud Dream’s computing resources become, making this business absolutely profitable.

If it weren’t for this technology, Cloud Dream couldn’t have expanded so quickly at the beginning—just server demands could have stalled progress for months.

This demonstrates the enormous convenience brought about by a technological advantage.

Having confirmed the viability of virtual offices and realizing they utterly outperformed traditional models in terms of experience, all of Daxia’s real estate stocks plunged, hitting the limit down across the board.

The good news was, with tech companies rising in value, the overall stock market performance was decent, and the market did not exhibit any signs of panic.

In contrast, overseas retail investors had no choice but to panic.

Especially on Monday, when more Daxia enterprises announced they had received authorization for [Graphene] chips and overseas companies hadn’t made any progress whatsoever, it was really impossible not to freak out!

Come afternoon, Cloud Dream joined in the excitement and officially announced that World of Bubbles and Paris: The Revolution were being categorized as [Outstanding], thus exiting the [Cradle Plan].

This made players realize that the initial promise in the [Cradle Plan’s project development requirements] to “provide all necessary assistance to outstanding works” wasn’t just an incentive; it was actually happening!

Once the announcement was made, the previously lukewarm demo versions of World of Bubbles and Paris: The Revolution immediately saw a surge of players coming to try them out!

And Leonardo noticed with satisfaction that under the dual stimulation of the [Cradle Plan] and [Virtual Office], the player count, which typically dropped significantly during daylight hours on workdays, had increased by at least 20% compared to the same time period.

And this was just the beginning.

It can be foreseen that in the coming time, the excavation of “digital life remains” will continue to accelerate!
