Liu Mengyuan tilted her head slightly, her gentle gaze meeting Lu Yu's. Sunlight filtered through the window, casting a soft halo on her profile. Looking at his lover's fair, jade-like skin and delicate features, Lu Yu's heart was filled with tenderness.
As the sun set, the two sat side-by-side on the sofa, enjoying the sci-fi film 'Inception,' which explored the concept of dreams.
When the protagonist in the movie used a special device to enter the dream world, Liu Mengyuan couldn't help but glance at Lu Yu.
She was reminded of the new gaming pod product her company was developing, aiming to create an unprecedented "immersive dream experience."
This concept had once seemed a little scary to her, but now she felt a sense of anticipation—perhaps such a product could bring unprecedented fun and novel sensations.
"Yuan Yuan, does the dream world in the movie make you yearn for it?" Lu Yu asked softly, his tone ambiguous and teasing. He suddenly wrapped his arm around Liu Mengyuan's slender waist, pulling her into his embrace.
Liu Mengyuan was slightly taken aback, and two red clouds instantly flushed her cheeks.
She leaned gently into her lover's arms, quietly enjoying the tender moment. "Well, maybe a little."
She bit her lip lightly, a hint of shyness flashing in her eyes, "But real life with you is already wonderful enough."
As she spoke, she suddenly looked up at Lu Yu, flashing a sweet smile. Seeing her shy and adorable expression, Lu Yu couldn't help but lower his head and plant a kiss on her forehead.

"But I'm curious, what kind of new experiences will the 'dream product' bring us in the future?" Liu Mengyuan changed the subject, feeling curious about the company's new product.
"Who knows," Lu Yu said with a playful smile, "Maybe it will make our lives more interesting. I think this product should make people remember the original purpose of life."
The word "life" once again sent a jolt through Liu Mengyuan's mind!
She knew that Lu Yu's thoughts were definitely not as simple as outsiders speculated.
Hearing his ambiguous words, Liu Mengyuan couldn't help but blush again. She glanced sideways and saw Lu Yu's warm eyes fixed on her. Liu Mengyuan's heart skipped a beat, and her whole being seemed to melt in his tender gaze.
"Mr. Lu, are you teasing me?" Liu Mengyuan poked Lu Yu's cheek with her finger, pretending to be angry.
"How could I be?" Lu Yu smiled, embracing her delicate body and kissing her lips. "I'm just telling the truth. Every day with you is so interesting."
"Really? Then tell me, what interesting things will happen in our lives in the future?" Liu Mengyuan blinked her eyes, her expression filled with anticipation.
"Hmm..." Lu Yu pretended to be deep in thought, a sly glint suddenly flashing in his eyes. "Maybe one day, we can enter a brand new dream world like in the movies and experience unknown adventures?"
"You!" Liu Mengyuan was so amused by him that her body went limp, and she almost slipped off the sofa. She playfully punched her lover's chest, her face beaming with a happy smile.
The two remained in each other's embrace, letting the sunlight gradually fade in the room, enveloping it in a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere.
Finally, Liu Mengyuan suddenly remembered something and nudged Lu Yu with her elbow. "By the way, since our new game project is progressing smoothly, let's do something special, okay?"
"Oh, you're talking about that thing?"
Lu Yu smiled knowingly, seeming quite pleased that she remembered. "Okay, actually, I was wondering, like, right now?"
His voice paused, and a hint of shyness appeared in his eyes, as if he was considering how to phrase his question.
"Hmph, such an important ritual between lovers can't be so casual!"
Liu Mengyuan followed his gaze and covered her mouth.
Two red blushes rose on Liu Mengyuan's cheeks, her shy expression constantly changing on her beautiful face.
After a long while, she finally brushed a strand of hair behind her ear with her slender fingers and whispered, "I... I think we can choose a special day. Like my birthday."
She pursed her lips, her eyes shy and hopeful.
"That will definitely be a memorable day."
...
The long-awaited era of somatosensory gaming machines has finally begun amidst the surging tide of technology in Tao Yuan Township! For a time, the market competition was chaotic and fierce.
And standing at the forefront was the renowned technology giant, Sony Corporation.
Amidst a deafening wave of publicity, Sony's heavily launched new PlayStation somatosensory pod made a powerful debut!
The promotional video reflected the grand vision of somatosensory technology.
A lone hero in full armor descended alone into the devastated ruins of a city, looking around to see flames and a rain of bullets raging, the tense and intense battle atmosphere making the audience sweat.
But just then, the camera suddenly turned, revealing the iconic "arm ring controller" of the somatosensory pod! The player raised his right arm, manipulated the arm ring to accurately aim, and twisted his wrist, resulting in a sniper-like precise shot!
In an instant, a gorgeous game scene unfolded.
Space fighters cruised in the vast universe, and players could personally control the fighters to roam in the endless starry sky with a slight wave of their arms!
A black-clad female knight agilely leaped on the Gothic city dome, and the character could be controlled to complete a series of gorgeous movements in one go through gesture capture; and under a winding battlement, a medieval knight in heavy armor held a torch and launched a hearty battle!
"Your body is the world!"
The promotional video ended with this shocking slogan.
"Now, the somatosensory pod brings an unprecedented immersive experience! Let your limbs and your instincts be completely integrated into this virtual world, there is no reason not to go crazy for it!"
Under this sensational promotional effect, Sony successively announced a batch of somatosensory pod launch masterpieces - the highly anticipated sequel "Uncharted 5", "The Last of Us 3: Invincible Baseball Player", "Horizon: Dark Rebirth" and the highly anticipated Marvel hero masterpiece "Marvel's Spider-Man 3: Spider-Man Forever"!
In "Spider-Man 3", Spider-Man, who shuttles through the steel jungle, seems to be right in front of you, stepping on silk threads and swaying between skyscrapers, like a prodigal son with the unique skill of riding the wind.
Every dive, somersault, and even hit of an enemy is so easy and immersive!
"Uncharted 5" allows players to completely immerse themselves as a pirate captain, wandering in the vast sea, personally driving ships, and wielding weapons; and when occupying enemy ships for fierce hand-to-hand combat, arm ring capture will make every punch and kick of the player precise!
After the release of this promotional video, global players were excited and excited!
An unprecedentedly high-spirited scene appeared on major social media: countless people cheered in the live broadcast room, praising the PlayStation somatosensory pod;
Endless posts on major forums praised the upcoming new era, and people spontaneously formed multiple Internet communities with max expectations.
For a time, it was like madness was spreading! Global players seemed unable to restrain their inner enthusiasm and longing, eager to personally try the unprecedented huge surprise of this technological revolution. Now, everyone is waiting for the arrival of this exciting new era. And an unprecedented frenzy has therefore risen in the world!
...
Sony's promotion ignited the beacon of the somatosensory console era.
Seeing this boiling atmosphere, Microsoft and Nintendo naturally couldn't help but join the battle.
Although these two giants were not ready, they could only release some scraps to whet the appetite of the players.
Microsoft quickly unveiled a montage, first highlighting the shocking scene of human-machine confrontation in "Halo Infinite", in which a lone hero holding a shotgun bravely fought out in heavy firepower cover, with dazzling fire flashing around the character; then switched to "Steep 6", where characters of different races sped on the track, the speed making the audience's blood boil.
Not to mention the famous "Warzone" series, in the scene switching, the smoky, bullet-flying gunfight scenes made people boil!
On the Nintendo side, a large wave of old friends were easily PKed. The classic and undefeated Mario also played an active clown in the picture, and the red-hatted little man strolled in the mushroom wonderland, attracting countless nostalgic audiences to cheer.
There is also the wonderful badger officer Judy in "Zootopia", a collaboration with Disney, who appeared on the street, making adults and children call it cute.
And the most crazy cheers belong to the lifelike Donkey Kong old game, with the blessing of the somatosensory pod, the era of real-person gambling games has finally arrived!
Of course, Sony fans inevitably sarcastically commented in the Nintendo news comment area:
Hehe, will the somatosensory pod's chip be able to run? I'm afraid it's a screen full of mosaics... Oh no, a screen full of playability.
The fanatical investment of the three major console manufacturers undoubtedly made the game industry rise and fall, and was in full swing.
Seeing this grand occasion, many independent game studios that had never been valued also began to make small gains and re-launched the development of somatosensory pod games.
The three giants have used their best to compete for third-party developers.
Seeing the three giants so serious, other small and medium-sized hardware manufacturers flinched.
The latest novel is first published at Six Nine Book Bar!
The reason is simple, they don't have a self-developed studio that they can show off!
...
Just as the global game industry was hotly discussing the rise of the somatosensory pod era, Tao Yuan Township's official Weibo released a low-key mysterious promotional video, showing the concept of its newly announced somatosensory pod game console "Dream Realm".
When a mysterious video suddenly came from the official Weibo platform, the whole world fell into silence. The entire screen was dark, with only a gradually brightening word flashing - "Dream Realm".
Instantly, dreamlike scenes began to flash in the darkness.
A forest full of hazy mist appeared in the field of vision, the shadows of trees were whirling, and a girl was walking barefoot in the forest, her bare feet lightly falling into the soil.
Her face was a little blurry, like a veil, but her figure was very real, every movement and every expression was lifelike.
As she approached, the camera switched to a clear lake, she leaned over to drink water in the lake, and the lake actually rippled in layers, and a drop of water slid down her hair, sparkling in front of the camera.
At this time, a low commentary came from the film: "Dream Realm is an unprecedented virtual reality experience product. It will not only allow you to be personally in the dream, but also allow your senses to be completely immersed in it."
As soon as the voice fell, the camera turned again, and a magnificent palace appeared in the field of vision. Palace maids in heavy costumes were embracing a beautiful princess, their costumes were smooth, and every embroidery thread was lifelike, as if it were right in front of them.
Suddenly, one of the palace maids winked at the camera, so bright and moving, causing the audience to accelerate their heartbeats!
"We have adopted advanced VR image enhancement technology to vividly present every plant and tree in the dream."
The commentary explained slowly, "Combined with 4D surround sound and intelligent fragrance system to release various smells, bringing an unparalleled immersive experience."
Following the commentary, the camera switched to a depressing and narrow dark tunnel, and a young man groped forward uneasily in the dim light. Suddenly, a faint footstep sounded in the tunnel, and the young man turned his head sharply, the camera facing his terrified eyes! Everything was so realistic, even the faintly diffused damp and stale atmosphere made people shudder.
The commentary sounded again: "And this is not everything. We have also introduced an AI deep learning analysis engine. It will adjust the virtual scene in real time according to your brain waves to give you the most suitable dream."
"At the same time, our quantum wave sensing array can detect the beautiful fantasies in your heart and dynamically render everything you expect to see!" Speaking of this, the tunnel in front of the young man suddenly turned into a lush forest, with thousands of birds chirping and the warm sun shining high. The entire scene transition process was so natural and smooth that it was impossible to distinguish between reality and fiction.
The following film scenes alternated dazzlingly, and lifelike dreams drifted in front of them:
In the snowy ice field, under the boundless sky, groups of polar bears were playing and frolicking; for several miles of rainbow waterfalls, the water splashed into colorful auspicious clouds in the air; from the alien world of mechanical behemoths, the details of each one were exquisitely crafted under the close-up lens.
"This is the new experience brought by Dream Realm."
The film gradually came to an end, and the commentary became low and magnetic, "It is not only a game console, but also restores your fantasies, beyond your imagination, and takes you to experience a new unknown world. From today, we have opened an unprecedented new era, allowing everyone to have the opportunity to personally set foot in the dream world and regain the purest self in the ethereal. Dream Realm, waiting for you to dream!"
...
As soon as this promotional video was released, Tao Yuan Township's fans exploded!
Everyone expressed their feelings:
"Oh my god, oh my god! This is too crazy! My dream is about to come true. To be personally immersed in a dream, just imagining it makes my heart surge! Come on, I can't wait to pre-order!"
"Holy crap! This is the new height that technology brings to life! When virtuality and reality are perfectly combined, how much potential will humanity unlock? Shocking! I've even started fantasizing about immersing myself in a dream world full of kemonomimi girls."
"As a tech enthusiast, I'm so interested in the black technology behind this product! Artificial intelligence dream analysis, quantum wave sensing, and even biochip intervention? This is an unprecedented attempt!"
"I will always believe in Taoyuan Township's technology! They led the VR era, and this time, they will bring shock to the entire gaming world! Looking forward to the completely immersive experience brought by Dream Realm?!"
"Indeed, the atmosphere of the entire video is so beautiful and poetic, I was completely attracted. Especially that beautiful forest and that barefoot girl, giving people a pure feeling of returning to nature, making people yearn for it!"
In a short time, the Weibo comments quickly exceeded 200,000!
And topped the Weibo hot search!
However, although the fans were excited, some professional game media people frowned after watching this promotional video.
This time, they felt that Taoyuan Township Company was simply messing around!
First of all, the concept of dreams itself is too metaphysical and too science fiction.
Even Sony is only emphasizing its audio-visual performance.
Secondly, this concept seems completely impossible to achieve.
The reason is simple: everyone's dreams are unique, and game software is to be issued in a standardized and formalized manner. How are you going to unify these two things?
Therefore, many media people have published current commentary, expressing doubts!
