Chapter 455: Cross-border Organizations
"Of course there will be problems. Any sudden rise and fall in the market will be very harmful to stock investors, because not everyone can follow this rhythm."
"But it will also be a wake-up call for all of us. Many problems that are not discovered in normal times can be repaired and made up for at this time."
"What market managers have to do is to check for leaks and fill in the gaps, constantly improve the system of this market, and put it on the path of healthy development. Only in this way can we usher in a real promising market outlook."
After Chen Weidong finished speaking, he rubbed his head in annoyance and felt a little tired.
If the stock market crashes, it will not only affect a certain individual or company, but will extend to a country, and eventually even the entire world, causing the economy to retreat.
The most typical example is the collapse of the Nasdaq, which triggered a global stock market crash.
This kind of "linkage" is very scary.
Almost no one can stop it.
It is easy to find the problem, but how to solve it is fundamental.
If you have to talk about the problems in the A-share market, there are too many, and they cannot be solved overnight. Even if everyone knows the problems, it is our old tradition to "conceal the disease and avoid treatment."
At this time, who can have the determination to stand up and promote the reform of the financial market?
....
End of December, 2007.
When the three-month internal beta test was about to end, the Eurasian Computer Alliance launched its first official TV advertisement in Europe, America and Asia.
In the first few seconds of the screen, the entire screen is filled with crystal clear water.
The water is clear, the microwaves reveal tiny pieces of fish scales, the aquatic plants sway with the waves, and small fish and shrimps swim among the aquatic plants.
A fishhook fell from the sky, carrying a thin and transparent fishing line, and landed on the water, breaking the calm and causing ripples.
The small fish and shrimps fled in panic, and in the blink of an eye, all that was left under the water was the dust stirred up by the tails of the fish and shrimps.
The camera moves along the silk line, and then moves along the fishing rod to the body of a fisherman.
This is a player, a closed beta player who enjoys the fun of fishing in the virtual world. Among tens of thousands of closed beta players, he is the only one who has chosen such a unique gameplay. Instead of fighting monsters and upgrading, he will do it every day.
Carrying a fishing rod in his pocket, he fished leisurely in various lakes.
The camera gradually zoomed upwards, the figure of the fisherman slowly shrank, and the entire surrounding scenery appeared on the TV screen.
A forest with pleasant scenery and a lake as clear as a mirror.
In the lens, there are undulating mountains, green grassland that stretches for an unknown distance, and running horses...
The camera zooms higher and higher, and white clouds appear below the camera.
A goshawk flutters its wings and its clear cry cleanses the soul, as if all the dust of the world has been swept away.
A magnetic baritone whispered softly in a dreamy voice: "You are just short of eating fish..."
The advertisement, which lasts for more than a minute, perfectly explains what it means to be tranquil and far-reaching, and the dream-like virtual world strikes at the hearts of all those who yearn for a better life.
Even if you don't like all kinds of killing in the game, just walking on the maple leaf-covered soil and looking at the beautiful scenery of the distant mountains is still a good enjoyment, people think so.
In this way, Huanyu Company expresses mankind's pursuit and yearning for the second world.
It also touches everyone's heartstrings.
"In the virtual world, I forget the hustle and bustle of the world. This is the Garden of Eden I dream of!" - A famous commentator from the European Times commented.
"I have publicly called for a boycott of Chinese manufacturing because it has taken away the jobs of our European workers. But this time, I want to call out louder. Come to the virtual world. Here, you can forget all the worries in life and be leisurely and contented."
Roaming, living! This is our paradise for forgetting worries, and this is the ultimate goal pursued by human development in the future!" - A bribed politician in the French political arena said this in his speech.
"Look at the advertisements! In the past, there were so many whales in the ocean, but now, we only have a few whales left, and they are still being fished by fishing boats from island countries in the name of scientific research! Maybe in the near future, we will only be able to
In the virtual world, see the former ocean overlord!" - International animal protection organizations held up photos taken from the promotional video and blocked the island country's embassy to protest loudly.
The name virtual world spreads to every corner of the world where information can reach at an astonishing speed.
Its influence is growing rapidly at a speed that no government or organization can predict.
Whether you like it or not, as long as you live in this society, you will hear and see all kinds of information and propaganda about the virtual world from everywhere.
The only TV commercial that was more than a minute long was paid for by the Eurasian Computer Alliance out of its own pocket. All other promotional information came from various organizations and interest groups that were preparing to show off their skills in the virtual world.
In order to get closer to the water and the tower, you have to get the moon first.
The first person to come to our door was the French tourism department.
The Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, the Louvre... tourist attractions are included in the cooperation agreement.
The French government authorized the use of the images of these scenic spots in the virtual world and provided more detailed data for the Computer Alliance to restore a more accurate original appearance of the scenic spots in the virtual world.
At the same time, the French Tourism Bureau will also send professional tour guides to explain to tourists.
And the benefit they get is a 60% share of the net profits.
Everyone is happy with the situation. Infinite Company does not have to pay an extra penny. It just creates a virtual scene and gets 40% of the net profit.
According to statistics, France attracts more than 80 million tourists every year, and its tourism revenue reaches more than 36 billion euros. Every year, there are tens of millions of potential tourists who are unable to visit France in person due to various reasons.
If entering the virtual world, the number of people visiting French attractions could reach one-tenth, that would be 8 million people!
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Even if this expectation is reduced by ten times, there will still be 800,000 visitors.
The French government can create thousands or even tens of thousands of new jobs for its people just in the virtual world. Of course they are smiling.
The French government took the lead and immediately triggered a chain reaction in countries around the world.
Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Australia, and Canada, which were still waiting to see before, one after another, came to negotiate with the newly established virtual world management company about licensing matters for tourist attractions.
In less than a month, the number of government agencies that have reached an agreement with the Virtual World Management Company has grown to hundreds, becoming an unofficial cross-border organization.
Its popularity has surpassed that of some lesser-known international organizations.
Later, even the United States, which had been flirting with it for a long time, finally signed a formal tourism agreement with the Virtual World Management Company.
So far, major countries and major scenic tourist spots around the world have given the right to use the image.
This is not only an opportunity to increase the country's influence, but also bring a considerable amount of revenue to the finance. Especially for some small countries with little industry, it is tantamount to a windfall.
For the sake of money and interests, countries around the world put aside their grudges and hostility for the first time and came together.
In the virtual world established by Infinite Corporation, we work together for the benefit of others.
There are no permanent friends, but there are eternal interests.
During the public beta period, travel companies registered with the virtual world management company were eager to send people into the virtual world.
When people walk in the streets, pick up newspapers and magazines, and open TV websites, they will see large and small virtual world tourism advertisements.
"Twenty euros will take you around the British Isles!"
"Please come to the country of tulips. This is the country of the famous windmills. For the price of eighteen euros and a lunch, you can enjoy the pleasant beauty of the Netherlands!"
"From the Statue of Liberty, to the Bunker Hill Ancient Battlefield of the Revolutionary War, and then we will take you to see the cowboys of the West, with thousands of horses galloping, all for only 25 euros!"
"The glory of France! We will take you on a full tour from the storming of the Bastille to the final afterglow of the Hundred Days!"
"The latest technology of Infinity Company can recreate the past history. You can march forward with Napoleon's Guards, or you can participate in the tragic Battle of Waterloo. You only need to pay a total of fifty-six euros!"
"Want to be a Pirate of the Caribbean? Want to see medieval naval battles and experience the life of a pirate up close? Welcome to call us...."
"Announcement from Virtual World Management Company: World War I will be publicly launched in March 2008. Without being able to change history, you can sleep in the same trench and fight side by side with the soldiers who fought bloody battles.
!”
"The largest garden exhibition in the East is about to open in the virtual world of Hangzhou, China. Famous movie stars XXX and XXX will perform live. We sincerely invite guests from all walks of life to patronize!"
"The style of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the ancient city of Chang'an, retracing yesterday's Silk Road..."
From the Southern Hemisphere to the Northern Hemisphere, countless people who previously did not like to go out, were short of money, and had no time suddenly discovered that they can now visit the sights of the world at will.
The travel company implements an hourly system in the virtual world. As long as you purchase the service, you can freely visit the tourist attractions provided by the service provider during the time period, and a professional tour guide will explain it to you.
If time is tight, tourists can also split the purchased tour time and enjoy it in multiple times.
Those military enthusiasts and curiosity seekers can also follow the footsteps of dragons and the Middle Ages in the virtual world, immerse themselves in large armies, and go on a thrilling fantasy journey.
Otherwise, it is also a good choice to go to the ice and snow world of Glenling Island and dance with fat penguins.
These days, the newly established virtual world management company has been adding employees and expanding departments, but it is still busy from morning to night, with no intention of stopping.
At the beginning, I felt that a company of more than 300 people would be enough. According to the sharing agreement, several companies would each send some of their employees to keep the company running normally.
But in just the past half month, the company has expanded to more than 2,000 people, and it is far from enough!
The company's management was in pain and happiness, and they were busy from opening their eyes to closing them, without any room for rest.
But they were very happy, very happy, even if they collapsed from exhaustion, they were willing to do so.
Chen Weidong and Lin Zeju are also very busy, so busy that they even lack time to sleep.
They are also working hard to expand the scale of operations in the virtual world and strive to include more industries, part or even all, into the virtual world.
Regardless of the management's complaints, they pushed the negotiated customers to the company one after another, becoming an integral part of the virtual world, allowing the virtual world to partially play a real role.
