When the conversation turned to technical matters, Sun Chen quickly chimed in, “Ms. Liu, your analysis is correct, and I believe everyone here has considered this issue. However, our technology is still immature; the virtual terminal technology does not meet the safety standards for mass production! Therefore, I oppose rushing into the virtual terminal market! Our focus should be on how to mitigate negative impacts and reduce player backlash! Just because our technology isn’t mature doesn’t mean there isn’t mature technology out there!” Liu Linna looked at the distressed technical director with a hint of mockery, “I’m not an expert in technology, but it’s an undeniable fact that our employees suffered serious harm in this attack! However, the performance of those two players, ‘Merciless Ghost Hands,’ was something even I, a layperson, could understand! Mr. Sun, you can’t just ignore this, can you?”
Sun Chen felt the sting of her words; he knew exactly what she meant. Both were using virtual terminals to enter the game; Wang Kai, under the protection of the company’s large-scale simulation terminal, still got caught in the NPC’s counterattack and remained unconscious, possibly facing brain death due to the overwhelming mental shock. However, the two ‘Merciless Ghost Hands’ reappeared in the game later, seemingly unharmed. This clearly indicated that the virtual terminal technology possessed by ‘Merciless Ghost Hands’ was far more advanced than what the company was currently developing. If the company could acquire this hacker’s technology, the biggest challenge of the virtual terminal would be solved. The question was, how to find this elusive figure? And how to obtain the cutting-edge technology from him? Buy it with money? Sun Chen had an intuition that ‘Merciless Ghost Hands’ wasn’t interested in money; otherwise, with such advanced technology, he could easily sell it to international giants like Microsoft or Apple for millions, or even billions of dollars. Although Wanmei was dominant in the domestic gaming industry, its foundation was somewhat lacking. Sun Chen, standing from his perspective, had already ruled out this approach.
