#413 - Mr. Lu, you call this a somatosensory warehouse? (2-in-1 order required)
Liu Mengyuan was bewildered when a new hidden mission prompt appeared in front of Lu Yu:
【Congratulations, you have received a new mission - Dreamland: During this cycle, please allow more than 1000 employees to experience their long-awaited dreams in the sensory immersion pods, and accumulate 500,000 Leisure Points from these employees.】
Mission Reward:

In the next cycle, you can enjoy 3 times of carefree bathing together with your loved one.
Mission Punishment:
【Path of Depravity】
In the next cycle, you will be teased and ambushed by your significant other in 3 different situations.
The hairs on the back of Lu Yu's neck stood on end: What the hell?
At the same time, a new hidden mission prompt also appeared in front of Liu Mengyuan:
【Congratulations, you have received a new hidden mission - Superpower Training: During this cycle, please use the sensory immersion pods to open "Brainpower Guidance Fields" for more than 1000 employees, using brainwave technology to help employees maximize their willpower and concentration.
Launch the "Infinite Courage Challenge", set up a series of stressful virtual scenarios to train employees' courage and ability to calmly respond to various emergencies at work.
And accumulate 500,000 Leisure Points from these employees.】
Mission Reward:
【Romantic Date】
In the new cycle, arrange 3 extremely romantic dates with your loved one.
Mission Punishment:
【Stalker Wolf】
Your romantic partner will be more likely to attack you.
……
Seeing these two missions, Lu Yu and Liu Mengyuan almost simultaneously showed embarrassed and nervous expressions, while also showing shyness when looking at each other.
Their eyes revealed a hint of shyness and apprehension.
The air stood still for a few seconds, and both of their cheeks began to flush slightly. Mengyuan subconsciously twisted her fingers together, while Lu Yu coughed twice to cover up his embarrassment.
They stared at each other in silence for a long time, seeming to want to find answers in each other's eyes, but immediately looked away, afraid of being misunderstood.
"Even if there is such a mission," Liu Mengyuan finally broke the silence, her voice so soft it was almost inaudible. "I believe Lu Yu wouldn't be that kind of person..."
"Yeah, it's a very special mission. I also think Yuanyuan wouldn't just randomly attack me, right?" Lu Yu thought at the same time.
As he spoke, he glanced around and noticed that many colleagues were whispering, and some were even taking out their phones to point at them.
The two fell into another period of silence as if they had lost their souls, so embarrassed that the air seemed to solidify. But the sound of whistles and cheers had already begun to come from around them.
"PDA, PDA, this is true love!"
"Hey, you two should at least pick a more secluded spot to confess your love!"
"After all, they are the boss and the boss's wife, it's nothing strange!"
……
Since there was a system mission to complete, and there was no way to give up,
So Lu Yu felt that it was necessary to start with the design of the sensory immersion pods first.
His only goal was to completely distort the design ideas of the sensory immersion pods.
So, he called Mao Wuyong to the company.
Mao Wuyong was also very excited. He wanted to have a good chat with Lu Yu about the design of the sensory immersion pod game console.
……
On a clear autumn afternoon, sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows and filled the conference room.
Lu Yu paced back and forth, occasionally glancing at Mao Wuyong across from him. This guy, with his cheek propped up and lost in thought, looked more excited than anyone else, almost ready to breakdance on the table.
"Um... Lao Mao, haven't you been looking forward to the design of the sensory immersion pod game console? Do you have any ideas?" Lu Yu swallowed and finally spoke, breaking the silence.
"Ah? Sensory immersion pods?" Mao Wuyong immediately came back to his senses, his eyes shining. "This is the game console of my lifelong dream! Do you know how many innovative ideas this requires?"
"Well... tell me about your ideas first," Lu Yu said with a forced smile, signaling him to continue.
"My ideas? President Lu, you've come to the right person!" Mao Wuyong said with great enthusiasm, launching into a torrent of words:
"First of all, we need to use the latest VR visual rendering and physics calculation technology to create a 360-degree panoramic view and 6-DoF interactive experience to completely immerse players! Secondly, we need to…"
Mao Wuyong talked non-stop, from the hardware architecture to virtual-real mapping, from the ingenious game engine to the underlying artificial intelligence model, laying the groundwork layer by layer, with clear logic.
Moreover, his ideas were very reasonable, taking into account the cost, production cycle, and technical difficulty.
Just from his exaggerated gestures and expressions, it could be seen that this concept had been carefully crafted.
As Lu Yu listened, cold sweat had already seeped out of his forehead.
This design, which was so reasonable that it was outrageous, completely shattered his fantasies.
Were Mao Wuyong's suggestions useless? No, on the contrary, Mao Wuyong's suggestions were very useful.
But Lu Yu's purpose was not to hope that the sensory immersion pods would really succeed, so he had to distort the design ideas of the project!
"Lao Mao, I have only one question after listening to your plan," Lu Yu finally said, his voice trembling slightly.
"What question? Just ask!" Mao Wuyong raised his head proudly, extremely confident in his plan.
"Isn't this design... not quite in line with the original intention of our sensory immersion pods?"
Lu Yu swallowed and said cautiously: "Actually, this is what I think. If the sensory immersion pod is just made into a large game console, isn't it too wasteful?
In my opinion, this sensory immersion pod should really allow employees to truly experience all kinds of 'beautiful dreams'!"
"Beautiful dreams? Hmm... President Lu, I don't quite understand!"
Mao Wuyong looked confused.
Before he could react, Lu Yu had already started talking to himself.
"We can use the technology accumulated in the VR era, image enhancement interfaces, to inject the imagined scenes of beautiful dreams into the player's retina! Coupled with 4D surround sound, the dream will be immersive! At the same time, we must intelligently release hypnotic aromatherapy and soothing catalysts according to the plot…"
"We can have a dream analysis engine: using AI deep learning technology to analyze the dreamer's brain waves in real-time, and intelligently render appropriate dream scenes.
Moreover, we must introduce quantum fluctuation sensing technology to capture the player's inner sex... oh no, I mean beautiful fantasies, and dynamically render appropriate scenes! Through self-developed biochip cache, we can even actively intervene in the player's dream experience!
And, we can also come up with the following features——
Intelligent Dream Conditioning System: dynamically adjusts the dream content according to the dreamer's psychological state to ensure the rationality of the dream.
Scent Interlocking Chamber: releases various fragrances in coordination with the dream scene to bring an immersive olfactory experience.
Skin Penetration Layer: injects the feel and texture of various dream objects into the skin through nano-plating.
The latest novels are first published on Liǔ 9 ǔ Bā!
Physiological Data Restoration Chamber: simulates various physiological experiences in the dream, such as cold sweats during fear and accelerated heartbeat during excitement.
Sound Wave Control Array: brings seamless auditory interaction feedback to the dream through precise sound wave manipulation.
Lu Yu became more and more fascinated as he spoke, gesticulating excitedly.
"Um...this idea, for our production difficulty and production cost, is a bit...maybe a little too much..."
Mao Wuyong waved his hand nervously, about to object, but was suppressed by the other party:
"General Manager Mao, don't be short-sighted! Have you seen 'Inception'? The simulation of dreams and reality is the future trend! At all costs, is there anything that can't be done?"
Lu Yu's tone gradually became erratic, and his voice began to become excited:
"Think about it, in the future world, a white-collar worker has an ultimate dream deep-diving pod, which is full of diamond-like pure bathing body fragrance, and also uses an array of ionic ultrasonic equipment to create a dream-like silky tactile experience for all pores! What a pleasure it would be!"
"Moreover, we must consider any personalized needs to make dreams within reach! We can design a semiotics induction module to directly convert any vocabulary, idea, or concept into corresponding dream sensory experiences."
Mao Wuyong only felt his scalp tingle, but he couldn't refute it. President Lu's ideas were so crazy that it was simply a mobile perverted dream factory! How many detours did I want to take?
……
Hearing President Lu's overwhelming crazy ideas, the conference room was silent. Although Mao Wuyong looked completely thunderstruck, he was, after all, from a technical background and was still amazed by President Lu's imagination.
But others couldn't help but start asking questions and questioning.
First, Li Hongmei took the lead: "President Lu, your idea is really too exciting. Will employees' crazy dreams have a negative impact on their psychology? And there is also the risk of inappropriate content, does this conform to our company's values?"
"That's right, that's right, this is not a joke!" Finance Manager Han frowned tightly, "The research and development costs of the dream analysis engine alone will cost tens of millions! And dream physics rendering and intelligent plot generation technologies are all system-level projects, and the capital investment will be astronomical! Are you sure we have this strength?"
"Where will the return on investment come from?!" Marketing Manager Lu Yingying was even more worried. "Even if the dream host is popular, how much money can it sell for? This is the ultimate direction of the scientific research community, and the scope of application is still unimaginable, and it will be a lot of trouble to implement."
"Brother Lu, are you wasting too many resources?" Technical Director Chu Xiong also joined the questioning. "We can use AI technology and VR equipment to make an ordinary game, which is equally immersive, cheap, and affordable."
"That's right, you're just wishful thinking!" Even Zhang Fan, who was always glib, was rarely serious. "The dream world is still too advanced for ordinary consumers. Don't end up making a big splash with no market."
Looking at his subordinates shaking their heads and refuting one by one, Lu Yu smiled it off effortlessly. He winked at Mao Wuyong, who reacted and quickly gave everyone a brief introduction.
"President Lu is starting from human nature, and making this product to the extreme can meet all needs! Our target customers are not ordinary players, but the upper class of society. They have both money and taste pursuits, and we must do enough and thoroughly these dream functions!"
Lu Yu took the opportunity to speak: "That's right, I want you to use your imagination to create the wildest dream future product! Have you ever thought that dreams will be a new form of entertainment, a revolutionary service!"
"First of all, safety and moral risks are not a problem at all!" He pointed to the HR direction, "The dream environment will be adjusted through intelligent plot adjustments and active intervention to customize appropriate content according to customer information! For patients, in addition to ordinary entertainment, we can even add some special medical treatments!"
"As for the capital investment..." He waved his hand, "Can't you think of this as a new trend market that is gushing out? Ordinary people are satisfied with playing a few times a year, but people with money and leisure are willing to invest 50,000 to 60,000 experience fees a month! Which millionaire doesn't want to wake up and become an NBA superstar, the head of the White House, or a space captain?"
"But..." Several department heads were still a little skeptical.
"We must understand the customer's vision and demands!" Lu Yu said with great enthusiasm, "Everyone has an indelible dream space in their hearts. As long as our technology is strong enough, we will be able to unlock countless of the deepest desires in human nature! For example..." He winked at the hippie-smiling young man, who immediately blushed.
"For example, some naughty white-collar workers secretly admire someone in their hearts and long to be in love, swear oaths of eternal love, or even have passionate kisses and hugs every night—and they would be willing to pay a high experience fee to satisfy this fantasy in their dreams, right?"
The blush on the young man's face had spread to his neck, and he looked around uncomfortably.
Lu Yu continued: "For example, there are some greedy rich people who long to enjoy family happiness in their lives, and they will be willing to spend a lot of money to experience that kind of forbidden pleasure in their dreams! In short, as long as there is demand, there will be a market, do you understand?"
……
The employees were puzzled and had to continue to ask Liu Mengyuan for help.
Liu Mengyuan was also worried about how to complete the mission of this cycle. When she heard Lu Yu's idea,
A flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in her mind!
As expected of the man I have a crush on, his ideas coincide with mine!
Liu Mengyuan quickly waved her hand:
"Don't get me wrong, everyone. President Lu's purpose is very simple, just to relax his body and mind with dream therapy.
After all, people of any class have suffered too much torture and suffering in their daily lives! They need an absolutely private, high-return, and unlimited entertainment space to relieve the huge pressure of work and life!"
"So Lu Yu's idea hits the nail on the head. If calculated from the cost and return rate, it is indeed extremely uneconomical. But if it is not a high-end product, but a mass consumer product, then the mass production of the production line will smooth out the cost! This is a big game of President Lu!"
Liu Mengyuan's words made everyone suddenly realize.
It turned out that Lu Yu's incredible ideas really had their practical needs! It's just that this demand comes from the most extensive involution of working people in this world.
Seeing that the employees were nodding in agreement thoughtfully, Liu Mengyuan continued: "I know that Lu Yu's brainstorming design seems crazy, but this is exactly what we want to pursue! After all, in order to satisfy users' desires and dreams, simple virtual reality is far from enough! We must pursue the ultimate technological experience and create an absolutely dreamlike dream that is crazy and intoxicating!"
"I understand, President Lu is the most forward-looking! I didn't expect his ideas to be so close to user needs!"
Mao Wuyong smiled in relief,
"Exactly, isn't the whole point of dreaming to release repressed desires?"
Chu Xiong also suddenly understood, recalling the lewd 3D games that Lu Ge had introduced him to back in college. The technical fervor within him was completely ignited.
"As long as we ensure data security and consciousness separation, there's nothing to worry about! Anything can happen in a dream anyway!"
Li Hongmei also thoughtfully added:
"Our professional team must conduct a thorough risk assessment and design scenario content tailored to the customer's physical and mental condition. This is undoubtedly a challenging new field, and I will fully cooperate!"
People around chimed in one after another, and the entire conference room was instantly filled with vitality.
In contrast, just over an hour ago, people had been skeptical of Lu Yu's wild ideas, but now they were gradually understanding and recognizing the significance of this innovative design.
Dreams, this is very likely to be a truly epoch-making product that allows people in the involution-ridden real world to temporarily escape the pain of reality!
