#704 - Virtual World Survey Report

"What are you looking at?"

Cuddled in someone's arms, Elizabeth browsed the internet for classic tourist destinations on Xandar and the latest trends in fashionable items.

Elizabeth's initial excitement at arriving in a new place had finally subsided.

After planning her itinerary for the next few days, she felt a sense of accomplishment and immediately turned to look at Liang Yue beside her.

"I just ordered two holographic helmets for you and Stark, so you can experience the local lifestyle in depth tonight."

As he spoke, Liang Yue pointed to his virtual screen, showing the two items resembling motorcycle helmets that he had just paid for.

Just as he was about to explain the purpose of the helmets to Elizabeth in his arms, Stark suddenly got up from the table, poured himself a cup of spirit tea, took a sip, and looked at him.

"Speaking of virtual connection devices, do you have any ideas about that?"

"The technology has already been researched."

Liang Yue looked up at him and replied.

"...Cough! What? Cough, cough~ I mean, really?"

Upon hearing this news, Stark was clearly overwhelmed and choked on the tea he had just swallowed, but he was obviously more concerned about Liang Yue's words.

He stared at him with wide eyes, confirming in shock.

"It's only been a few months since we left Xandar, hmm~"

At this point, Stark clearly realized something and looked at him with an expression of understanding.

"Yes, I spent ten years in seclusion in another place, and I took Xiaowu with me. There's a research base there that I created many years ago."

"In that case, what are we waiting for? Shouldn't we take action quickly? You also know how much of an impact this holographic technology will have on the way of life for humans on Earth if it becomes widespread.

Not to mention alleviating social conflicts and creating employment, just the value it creates~"

"Hmm, it seems you're no longer just a businessman, Tony. You're starting to consider issues from a perspective of social responsibility~"

"...Since becoming Iron Man, I've thought a lot and discovered that there are many unfair things in the world, and also, the people who live in underdeveloped areas really have a hard time.

If we can fully deploy the virtual world on Earth, it should be able to help them a lot, what do you think?"

"This matter does need to be done, but there's no rush in the next few days."

"That's right! It's rare to come to Xandar, I have to quickly scavenge some useful things to take back."

"What I'm more concerned about is the patent issue for this technology."

"Are you afraid that Xandar will come looking for Earth later?"

"That's not it. I'm thinking that if we want to establish diplomatic relations and cooperation with other planets in the galaxy in the future, and connect our networks, the virtual world will inevitably be involved.

If we can make some arrangements in advance, maybe we can avoid these troubles."

"Don't think so much for now! Even if the layout and management are smooth enough, we don't need to consider those things for several decades. Let's focus on the internal management of Earth first!"

...

Stark's words were indeed very reasonable. Liang Yue didn't need to consider patent issues or the integration of the virtual world with Xandar.

After all, in a few years, this place will be completely destroyed by Thanos.

Any planetary agents, patent copyright fees, development layouts, will all vanish into thin air on a physical level!

However, Liang Yue is here now~

After taking the Power Stone into his possession a few steps ahead of time, Xandar probably won't be targeted by Thanos again.

Faced with this series of plot causes and effects, according to Liang Yue's original idea, he wanted to reach some cooperation with Xandar through Xiaowu's more complete technology, in order to make up for the shortcomings in terms of technology patents.

However, now that Stark is so confident, he can take care of the rest~

...

Even the family's housekeeper and servants have a share~

Liang Yue doesn't know whether this girl's actions are really to bring gifts to Jingxiang-sensei and others, or to show off.

Maybe both~

The reason why they only stayed on Xandar for more than half a month this time and had to leave.

Besides the fact that the goods ordered by Stark and others have been successively received, and they are confident that they have bought a lot of good things, Xiaowu's fund account has been spent to the bottom, which is also an important reason.

In addition, with a sense of attachment to the Earth, there is no point in staying here any longer.

Specifically, Stark and Meng Xiaoyu are both very interested in the plan to build a virtual world on Earth.

Since Liang Yue revealed that Xiaowu's technical research in this area has matured, the two of them have obviously taken it to heart.

One represents the Chinese side, and the other represents the top bourgeoisie of the United States. Obviously, they both understand the practical significance of this technology.

Zhao Hailun on the side also understands, but the country behind her obviously does not have the qualifications to participate~

After personally confirming that Xiaowu's technology is authentic and reliable, and trying out the virtual connection helmets manufactured by the stronghold world's production base, and the small holographic world temporarily built by Xiaowu.

In the next half a month, they almost put all their energy into the investigation and research on virtual technology.

The specific technical problems, of course, are not up to them to intervene~

Stark may be able to make some suggestions on Xiaowu's research, while Meng Xiaoyu, this dignified high-achieving student in the field of astronomy, can only do some pure administrative affairs.

Fortunately, this little girl is already mentally prepared for this.

The current Xandar, as a world that has been operating a virtual world system for hundreds of thousands of years and has formed a complete system of operation, maintenance, governance, and justice.

It is not difficult to collect some relevant information and data here.

Within Xandar, there are quite a few research institutions, universities, and other organizations that have conducted detailed discussions and research on the operation and impact of the virtual world.

And published in the form of papers on some professional-level websites.

Some people have even established social observation organizations specifically for the virtual world.

Every once in a while, they will discuss some changes in the virtual world, the phenomena that occur, and the impact on the development of reality and their own planet's civilization.

Write investigation reports and publish them to all citizens on a regular basis.

Of course, because the virtual world has been operating in Xandar for quite a long time, if you want to check relevant information, it does take some effort to search those old databases that have been made public or abandoned hundreds of years ago.

Some even need to spend money specifically to purchase information from intelligence merchants and libraries that hoard information in this area.

Fortunately, this is not a problem for the intelligent brain Xiaowu. With its assistance, Meng Xiaoyu has naturally achieved considerable results.

However, as a young lady who can hold an important position related to the country's strategic direction at such a young age, it is certainly not enough to just bring these materials back intact.

So, after more than a week of sleepless nights, painstaking efforts, sleeplessness, and careful summarization, Comrade Meng Xiaoyu finally condensed her understanding, understanding, impact, and prediction of the broad prospects of the virtual world into a work summary report of more than 20,000 words.

Prepare to submit it to her direct supervisor's desk as soon as she returns to Earth~

Then, when this little girl finally completed her work report after three consecutive nights, she felt relieved and could no longer hold on, so she took a nap on the spot.

Stark, on the other hand, walked over with a wine glass, picked up the report and took a look, thought she wrote it well, so he asked Xiaowu to copy a copy for himself~
