Chapter 220 - 220: 218: Game Cabin?
“Let me take a look.”
He then put on the headband and went to the virtual world.
“Master!” Mavis greeted happily, as usual.
Lincoln hugged Mavis, “Where is the technical information?”
Without any hesitation, Mavis immediately brought up the information for him to see.
However, Lincoln soon realized that the information seemed incredibly complex: it was too far removed from his field of expertise!
At a glance, the technology used in the hibernation warehouse spanned medical science, pharmacology, bacteriology, low-temperature physiology, organic chemistry, engineering technology, bioelectrical technology, and so
on.
Compared to the technologies Lincoln had come across before, this one was far more complicated!
“Can we really build this?” Lincoln asked doubtfully. Nope,” Mavis replied without a second thought.
“Where is the main difficulty?”
“Many key drugs needed don’t exist in this world, and with some organic substances, the current technology is unable to synthesize them. Also, there’s a crucial type of symbiotic bacteria that seems to be missing in this world.
Without these, achieving safe hibernation and awakening is impossible.”
“An anticlimax, then.” After saying this, Lincoln flicked Mavis’s forehead. “Are you teasing me?”
“Ouch!” Mavis cradled her head, looking aggrieved. “But we can make the most basic bioelectric-related technology!”
“Bioelectricity? EMS?” Lincoln had some not-so-good associations with this technology.
Bioelectric muscle stimulation technology has a unique position: on one hand, it seems like a reliable technology, used in clinical treatment and postoperative rehabilitation.
On the other hand, it has also been marketed as a fitness or even weight loss device, widely used in the form of patches for the less informed.
“It’s different!” Mavis shook her head as if she were a rattle drum. “It’s far more advanced!”
Then Mavis started to give Lincoln a lesson on the hundreds of years of development of bioelectrical technology and the multiple innovations and leaps it had undergone.
“Wait, let’s pause for a moment,” Lincoln interrupted Mavis. “Can we really build this technology? It doesn’t seem as easy as attaching electrode patches and connecting to a power supply, does it?”
Mavis’s eyes widened: “What are you thinking, Master?! Of course, it’s not that simple…”
Lincoln turned to the bioelectric-related part of the technical information.
As expected, he saw the specific equipment needed. Apart from the external components, the most crucial parts consisted of a microcurrent pulse generator and a high-precision physiological status feedback monitor, as well as a key automatic algorithm.
Undoubtedly, the most valuable aspect was the algorithm.
This complex control algorithm wasn’t created out of thin air.
Rather, it was developed based on countless years of data from biology, medical science, neurology, and clinical medicine, and further refined and iterated through generations of practice. It was a precious and hard-earned result that had cost countless people’s efforts and even their hair.
One could see just how valuable it was.
In terms of technological content, there was no doubt that the algorithm was a priceless treasure, its value far exceeding that of the microcurrent pulse generator and high-precision physiological status feedback monitor.
However, when trying to build this equipment, the algorithm became the simplest part – all it required was a pair of hands.
After all, it was just copying existing content.
By contrast, it would take a lot of effort to create the lower-tech generator and monitor components.
“Why does the hibernation cabin have a feature that promotes body movement? Isn’t hibernation supposed to minimize activity?” Lincoln asked curiously.
“Hibernation is meant to be temporary!” Mavis explained cheerfully. “When astronauts are about to wake up, hibernation cabins will start to restore and adjust their body’s physical capabilities, or else they wouldn’t be able to stand up after waking!”
“Oh, I see.” Lincoln immediately understood. After all, he hadn’t traveled through space before and didn’t know these details.
“By the way, Mavis! Can this technology treat amyotrophic lateral sclerosis?” Lincoln quickly thought of Little Chun’s problem.
“Unfortunately no.” Mavis shook her head regretfully, “This technology is just more convenient. Compared with specialized rehabilitation training for ALS, most of their effects overlap, only filling a small gap without fundamentally changing anything.”
Lincoln sighed.
But he also understood that things wouldn’t be that easy—this was hibernation technology after all, not some miraculous medical capsules from sci-fi movies where people just lie down and get instantly cured of any fatal ailments.
Moreover, what they could build now was only the lowest, most insignificant part of hibernation technology.
He even began to worry: if they eventually decipher more advanced technologies, would they be restricted by the current overall tech level and be unable to build them?
Lincoln shook his head, casting away this groundless worry—why worry about it now?
First, let’s get this bioelectric technology done!
It still needs modification and adjustments; otherwise, should he make a hibernation capsule with nothing but bioelectric technology, an empty shell with no functions? How would that sell? Who would buy such a half-finished product? Calling it half-finished is even an overstatement—it’s barely a tenth of a finished product!
Wait! A flash of inspiration suddenly struck Lincoln, “Isn’t this just a game cabin?”
On second thought… maybe it’s not such a bad idea…
He quickly shook his head to calm himself down.
First, log off! Interview the professional manager he wanted to hire! Worry about this later.
Lincoln didn’t have a single free moment during the weekend.
He successfully recruited the professional manager he wanted: Kyle.
A former entrepreneur in the implantable brain-controlled prosthetic industry.
Unfortunately, these prosthetics required invasive surgery and met limited acceptance in Daxia due to their high costs, preventing the market from taking off. Ultimately, the business failed and ended miserably.
However, Kyle didn’t give up, choosing to continue his studies in the hope of improving the technology further and re-enter the fray!
It was at this time that Lincoln found him and showed him the technology that he could only dream of in his sleep.
After personally experiencing the current prototype, Kyle didn’t hesitate for a second, immediately choosing to join!
He kicked off the project with the startup fund of 100 million that Lincoln had generously invested, contacting his former colleagues, networking through old connections and channels, and even reaching out to media outlets. He was eager to make a splash!
This time, he had full confidence in success!
The next day, Lincoln went to the Experience Store and told Liang Tian to prioritize opening new branches.
He informed Liang Tian that the store in his hometown could be opened anytime, but three more branches should be added in Xiajing City within two months.
Liang Tian agreed without hesitation, enthusiastically getting to work on finding storefronts that very day.
On Monday, Lincoln logged into Cloud Dream Virtual Office on time.
Today would be another busy day.
The follow-up operation plan for “Light Encounter” needed to be finalized.
The production progress of “Speed Chase” couldn’t be slow.
But most importantly: the large-scale event “Freedom Day” in “Assassins’ Alliance” needed to have its plan finalized.
Starting today, players would see police marching and rallying in the metropolis in the game.
By next week, the police would start their collective strike, as per the set plan. That meant they only had a week left before “Freedom Day” commenced!
