769 Three Pieces of Good News (2/2)

On the other hand, Future Bank was in the process of going public. If nothing unexpected happened, it should be successful on the New York Stock Exchange in mid-May to issue 30% of the shares. According to the news brought by Future Bank's CEO, Future Bank just entered the asset review stage. With a 15 billion US Dollar loan, Future Bank could increase its P/E ratio and earn more money from investors

After Jiang Chen finished setting the direction of the tunnel, there were three other pieces of good news from Future Technology.

The first good news was that Virtual Image Production Company completed the modeling of Gliese 581g. According to the data sponsored by the International Astronomical Association, the planet's surface environment was restored in a 1:1 ratio.

As a result, ”The Time Curtain” would enter the second phase of shooting. With the help of powerful virtual reality processing technology, director Nolan would be able to express his free-flowing imagination and demonstrate the collision between two ”homogenous origin but heterogeneous structure” civilizations for the audience!

To be honest, although Jiang Chen read the script, he was still looking forward to the stunning masterpiece Nolan would bring to his audience.

He also sincerely blessed this friend to fulfill his dream to become the first director to win an Academy Award for Best Film using a sci-fi genre.

The second good news came from VRcity. After several months of hard work, the game development department of Future Technology completed the production of VRcity beta after integrating the famous Maxis and designers of Rock Star Studio.

Although the game was still only in beta, this program already possessed a city scale. The satellite imagery of Shanghai, Beijing, Wanghai, New York, London, Paris and other large cities captured by the Sky Eye X1 satellite was analyzed and constructed by smart programs. Over one hundred programmers completed the modeling of VRcity.

In addition to its rich infrastructure, tens of thousands of user-selectable building plans and the new city-based mission system designed by Rock Star would provide users with a wealth of game content while meeting users' social needs.

At present, VRcity opened a total of 100,000 beta testing codes to users from multiple countries as part of the internal beta testing for social media software. If there were no major problems after the test, this VRcity would enter the Phantom in the fall for users to download.

Jiang Chen was extremely pleased. Ning Huajian, CEO of Future Technology, perfectly replicated his original idea.

The only regret was that the GTA7 he was looking forward to may be bounced for an indefinite period.

Future Group mercilessly headhunted 17 developers of Rock Star, leading to stagnation of the development of GTA7. Jiang Chen was very hesitant when he made the decision.

From Vice City, he had always been a loyal player in the GTA series. However, this series was now ruined in his hands and he was extremely regretful.

While regretful, it was a decision he made.

He still couldn't stop shaking his head at the thought that if Take Two agreed to sell Rock Star, he wouldn't have needed to go through the trouble to headhunt. If Rock Star was acquired by Future Technology, he could produce a GTA based entirely on the VR platform.

Crimes would be completely restored in the real New York - shooting against gangs in the dark alley, street racing against the police, experiencing Fast and Furious through virtual reality... just thinking about this made him excited.

But would too realistic crime simulations increase the crime rate in real life?

It wasn't an outcome Jiang Chen could predict.
