Although Wu Hao responded to these questions in a relatively complete and positive manner, these questions seemed to open up the reporters' conversation, and reporters quickly started asking questions.
"Hello Mr. Wu, Yi News reporter Ma Zhenfeng, my question is still about this set of all-in-one somatosensory and tactile simulation clothing.
The suit you released this time has a tactile simulation system, which can simulate some real touches in the virtual world. For example, touching, stroking, etc., I experienced it and it was great. But it also created a question about ethics and morality.
The question is whether this set of clothes will easily cause ideological infidelity between couples or lovers. And whether this very realistic touch can be regarded as a disguised form of physical infidelity.
I don’t know what you think about this issue, thank you.”
This question is very sensitive and even sharp, and it also contains a certain degree of moral criticism and is very targeted. Wu Hao glanced at the polite reporter wearing glasses and thought quickly in his mind.
Then he replied to him and the reporters present: "First of all, we are just a company that produces and sells products. The products we produce do not have or set any attributes. How to use them depends on each user.
We respect users' choices. As long as their use does not violate laws, regulations, or moral ethics, we should give them full support.
It's like a blacksmith. The kitchen knives he makes can be used for cooking, and they can also be used to kill people. Do we have to blame the blacksmith just because the kitchen knife he made killed someone?
The sales of products are widespread, and we cannot avoid selling to specific groups of people unless there is relevant system support.
After all, it is still a product and a tool. The user is human, and the decision-making purpose is also human. As for the mental cheating and physical cheating you mentioned, would this kind of thing be eliminated even without our equipment?
The most critical factor in this problem is people, so when something happens we can’t blame a tool, but should reflect on people’s related behaviors.”
This question is difficult to answer, so Wu Hao also spoke in a vague manner, which can be regarded as a kind of Tai Chi. He is not an emotional expert, nor is he a moral expert, so he cannot analyze and criticize from this aspect. He can only deal with it in this way.
past.
Without giving the reporter a chance to continue asking questions, Zhang Xiaolei quickly pointed to another reporter next to him.
"Hello, Mr. Wu, I am Fan Lili, a reporter from Penguin Technology. When you answered the question earlier, you mentioned that your virtual world is another form of the Internet, a three-dimensional Internet.
When we were experiencing it today, we also noticed that many Internet companies have joined in your virtual world. Does this mean that your company is creating a new type of Internet that is different from the traditional classic Internet?
What is the difference between the Internet and the existing Internet?”
As expected, he is a professional journalist with a very sharp mind. He was able to grasp the key points of his words so quickly and improvise such a blockbuster question.
Therefore, when Fan Lili asked such a question, the scene fell silent, and then quickly started discussing in low voices. This question is definitely important and novel. Once Wu Hao answers it directly, I am afraid it will become the headlines of major media today.
Edition headlines. I am afraid that the entire Internet and the entire society will attract attention and reactions by then.
Wu Hao squinted at the female reporter, then nodded slightly and said: "We are trying in this area, but there is still a long way to go before success."
Coax... Many reporters at the scene were suddenly ignited by his words and fell into a discussion. Some cameras in the back row also flashed their spotlights at him like machine guns.
"Mr. Wu..."
"Mr. Wu?"
"Mr. Wu, may I ask..."
Wu Hao pressed his hands to signal everyone to quiet down, and then said calmly: "I know this issue is very hot, but it is actually not new.
Someone has been trying it a long time ago, and now we are just picking up others' wisdom.
However, due to technical limitations at the time, the attempt was not successful. Nowadays, Internet-related technologies and even computers have made great progress, so many companies are now making attempts in this area. In fact, we are not alone.
In fact, what we want to develop is not a new Internet. This statement is not correct. What we are developing is a new Internet browsing method that is different from the traditional Internet browsing method.
Using VR technology, we can upgrade and evolve the traditional two-dimensional Internet browsing method into this 3D browsing method.
We often say that the Internet is a global village and a virtual world.
It’s just that this kind of ‘global village’ and virtual world are too abstract, and what we have to do is to make this abstract global village and virtual world concrete.
It's like really building a three-dimensional virtual world that is almost or basically consistent with our real world, or even richer.
Just like the online shopping example I gave at the press conference, in the three-dimensional virtual world we have built, consumers can experience the same real experience as shopping in a physical store in the real world without leaving home.
This new online shopping method is faster, more convenient, more intuitive, more humane and more comfortable than our traditional online shopping methods.
This will undoubtedly affect or even change the current online shopping methods, business models, even our lifestyles, and even some changes in society.
To give another example, in the past, when we browsed news information on the Internet, we usually obtained this information through text, pictures, audio and video.
With this technology, everyone can obtain this information immersively through VR technology and high-definition panoramic cameras.
For example, if a traffic accident occurs somewhere, you can be at the scene and watch the relevant events.
Wherever a football match is being held, you can also go to the venue in this way to get a viewing experience that is not much different from watching the match on site.
There are many similar examples, so I won’t give them one by one.
This idea is beautiful and huge, and it is difficult for us as a company to complete it. It requires everyone's joint efforts, and we also need to formulate some standards and rules, and even need to break through and solve some technologies.
What we are doing now is just a small attempt, and the results are still unknown.
However, as a technology company, we have the courage and determination to explore the unknown, which is also the development philosophy we have always adhered to.
I am also willing to be a pioneer in exploring this area and explore related development paths in the future for everyone."
Bang bang bang bang... As soon as he finished speaking, the audience burst into warm applause.
