July 10, 6: 30 in the evening.
The local news of Shuangqing City was broadcasted at 6: 30 on time.
Jingya Court.
Shi Lei watched the news channel of Shuangqing City with great interest. Although Shi Lei did not know the news anchor, it did not prevent Shi Lei from watching the news.
"Hello, ladies and gentlemen."
"Hello, everyone."
The male and female anchors greeted the audience one after another, and then they entered the main topic of the local news report. First, they reported that the pavement tiles of a certain place had cracked and had not been cleaned for a long time. Then they reported that Granny Zhou's kitten was missing and hoped that kind people could help to find it.
The local news of Shuangqing TV station was basically trivial matters.
More than ten minutes later, Shi Lei was gnawing on the braised chicken wings. His patience was almost worn out. The news he wanted to watch finally appeared.
"This station reports that a serious car accident happened on Lakeside Road in Shuanghu District at nearly one o 'clock at noon today." The male anchors first introduced, and then the screen showed the live report.
"Hello, everyone. I'm Hu Wen. I'm reporting to you on Lakeside Road in Shuanghu District."
A short-haired girl, holding a microphone with the logo of Shuangqing TV station, appeared on the TV screen.
Behind the reporter, Hu Wen, a black car that had been severely deformed crashed into a thick tree.
Unexpectedly, the tree trunk, which was only as thick as the mouth of a bowl, did not break. Instead, it blocked the black car from moving forward.
"At noon today, a black Volkswagen Passat was unfortunately hit by a big truck driving on the opposite side while waiting for the traffic light.
After our investigation, we learned that the driver of the big truck was driving under the influence and took full responsibility.
However, the driver of the Passat died on the way to the hospital because of his serious injuries. "Hu Wen showed a sad expression at the right time.
There was a big taboo for the reporters who reported the news at the scene.
That was to never show any facial expression that was not in line with the content of the news report.
If Hu Wen showed a happy expression when reporting the scene of the car accident, it would definitely be the rhythm of a tragedy.
"At present, the driver of the big truck has been detained by the police in Shuanghu District. We will do a follow-up report.
Here, we call on all drivers to remember not to drink when driving, and not to drive when drinking.
Cherish your life, and also cherish the lives of others. "Hu Wen concluded.
Shi Lei turned off the TV with a smile and muttered to himself, "What a pity, he died just like that!
It would be more fun if they were missing an arm or a leg! "
Sometimes, death wasn't scary at all. On the contrary, being alive was more despairing.
"Izur, have you finished shipping the VR gaming helmet and the second-generation free-body operation platform?" Shi Lei asked Izur as he ate the braised food on the coffee table.
Shi Lei basically didn't cook when he was alone at home at night. He simply ate some braised food and takeout.
Shi Lei was indeed very picky, but Shi Lei was also very lazy.
"Sir, all the overseas orders have been delivered.
The domestic orders are currently being sorted out and will be sent out before 21: 00. "Izur replied Shi Lei.
The overseas orders were sent out earlier than domestic orders, but it didn't mean anything. It was only because domestic orders were more convenient to send out and didn't need to go through customs. It didn't matter if it was a little late, it wouldn't affect the delivery.
Shi Lei nodded and asked, "Has YAG's laser processing equipment arrived in Shuangqing City?"
"Not yet. It's estimated to arrive between 23: 00 tonight and 2: 00 tomorrow morning.
Sir, do you want to create a memo and send the YAG laser processing equipment directly to Cui Hu Building's temporary R&D center? "Izur asked Shi Lei.
YAG's laser processing equipment had no other use other than giving it to Li Chai to create the second phase of the ultra-high speed multi-frequency current driver core.
"Yes, just hand it over to Li Chai!"
Shi Lei replied with certainty. Shi Lei was already used to Izur's increasing intelligence. Simple logical reasoning problems were usually solved by Izur himself.
Both things went smoothly. Shi Lei was relieved. He ate the braised food in big mouthfuls and even opened a bottle of beer.
However, Shi Lei only took one sip and stopped.
Shi Lei really couldn't do anything about drinking. Maybe it was because he was allergic to alcohol, or maybe it was because of other reasons, but Shi Lei really couldn't hold his liquor well.
One bottle was enough to guarantee that Shi Lei would spend the night on the living room floor.
After casually eating dinner, Shi Lei sat in front of server number one and checked the status of IWN's Secret Web.
As the number of users in the Brave World increased, IWN's Secret Web also increased.
Currently, IWN's Secret Web's idle distributed computing resources had reached 1200 TFLOPS.
Shi Lei wanted to further optimize IWN's Secret Web's core algorithm so that IWN's distributed computing resources could be used more efficiently.
However, IWN's Secret Web's composition was very complicated. It wasn't as simple as changing the core algorithm to greatly increase its efficiency.
"If I want to change IWN's Secret Web's core algorithm, I have to rely on a higher speed network to make better use of the distributed computing resources.
Based on the current situation, I'm afraid there's no way to increase the speed of network access for the time being. "Shi Lei sighed in his heart.
In 2007, the world's broadband network speed wasn't fast. Xia Xia was even behind the world's standards.
Shi Lei had the determination to change IWN's Secret Web, but he didn't have the resources to do so.
Shi Lei temporarily put aside the optimization of IWN's Secret Web's core algorithm. He logged into Dream Entertainment's official player forum and casually browsed through the posts.
Dream Entertainment's player forum was very lively. Even after sub-forums were established by region, it was still very lively.
A large number of posts appeared every second.
Unless it was a pinned post or a highlight post, ordinary posts basically sank instantly.
Highlight posts were only set up by Dream Entertainment's officials. Posts that could be selected as highlights were all posts with in-depth information.
For example, the latest highlight post, "On How Ordinary Players Can Fight Against Money Players." The author of this post introduced in detail how low-level players could fight against high-level players in the Hero's World.
The Hero's World was a team-oriented game. There was a limit to individual heroism.
There might be a ten-man or a hundred-man match, but there definitely wouldn't be a thousand-man match or a ten-thousand-man match.
When the number of ordinary players reached a certain level, even the top players would have to die on the spot.
According to the current progress of the Hero's World, even the top players, like Storm, or non-player characters that were similar to the top players, such as Qiao Mo, could only defeat five or six experts of the same level at most.
If there were more than twenty enemies, both Storm and Qiao Mo would be defeated.
Fortunately, the laws in the Hero's World were very strict. Killing and robbing would definitely be severely punished.
Otherwise, according to the extremely severe death penalty in the Hero's World and the non-individual heroism setting, most combat players would probably be played to death.
"Huh?"
Shi Lei suddenly found an interesting post. "Izur, have you discovered any cheats in the Hero's World?"
The post Shi Lei found was a post exposing cheats!
"Sir, as of now, we haven't discovered any cheats in the Hero's World," Izur replied to Shi Lei with certainty.
The main system of the Hero's World was Izur. As an advanced pseudo-artificial intelligence system, it was basically impossible to cheat.
Once the player did anything abnormal, Izur would automatically conduct a detailed inspection.
No matter what cheats were, as long as the player did something to a character in the Hero's World, it would inevitably be injected into the Hero's World program.
Although the Hero's World's main program was strictly protected, it couldn't be broken through by some top-notch hackers.
However, as long as Izur conducted a detailed inspection, it would definitely be found.
Shi Lei trusted Izur's judgment, but Shi Lei still clicked on the post to check.
In the post, the player who posted it actually recorded video evidence.
Shi Lei looked at the video evidence. The location of the video should be an area where overseas players gathered.
This was because the player who was reported was a golden-haired young man.
Across from the golden-haired young man was an antique counter. Sitting there was a beautiful female non-player character. Because the golden-haired young man's right hand was blocked by the counter, it kept moving back and forth in front of him.
According to the reporter's explanation, the golden-haired young man seemed to have discovered some sort of bug and was continuously testing it.
The golden-haired young man was very friendly with the female non-player character, so he could enjoy a certain discount and buy some goods.
Shi Lei looked at the golden-haired young man's movements in the video and almost burst out laughing!
How was this possible discovery of a bug? It was clearly the golden-haired young man's Qilin Arm acting up. He was unleashing the power of the Qilin Arm on the beautiful female non-player character!
Many evil players commented on the post, saying that the original poster was too naive and didn't realize that the Qilin Arm was acting up.
The golden-haired young man's actions were probably due to the Hero's World's use of somatosensory manipulation.
This tragic golden-haired young man's Qilin Arm acted up in the real world and wanted to use it on the beautiful female non-player character, but it was faithfully recorded by the camera, and the actions were fed back to the Hero's World.
Coincidentally, it was discovered by other players, who mistakenly thought that it was some sort of bug and recorded it.
This was a tragedy of tragedies.
However, Shi Lei still decided to do something about this behavior.
It was fine if the Qilin Arm acted up, but it couldn't be broadcasted in the Hero's World!
