"Choose—me!!!!!"

As soon as Jiang Cheng's words fell, the entire audience at the venue erupted! What surprised everyone was the opportunity to witness this magical, epoch-making virtual reality device! Such an opportunity, so rare, how could one not experience it! All hands were raised for Jiang Cheng to choose.

Meanwhile, the TV camera panned, capturing the scene at the press conference where everyone raised their arms, being seen by people around the world.

Everyone sitting in front of their televisions looked on enviously at these people—even though few of them would have a chance to be chosen, it was far better than having no chance at all.

"I see an interesting person," he said into the microphone. "A few days ago, he held a press conference, and I didn't expect him to attend—he is the CEO of the Apple Company, Tim Cook.

Guided by Jiang Cheng, the camera instantly switched back to the scene, and everyone there saw Tim Cook sitting in the front row simultaneously.

Tim Cook was clearly surprised to be called out and caught on camera, showing a restrained smile.

"The CEO of Apple ?? Tim Cook?"

"The chef is here!

"The chef came in person! He actually came!"

This is a brief introduction about Tim Cook, and this is a great speech. Tim Cook is just a lucky guest!"

As the camera turned towards Tim Cook, people sitting in front of televisions, computers, and at the press conference couldn't help but start talking.

When Tim Cook stood up, thunderous applause erupted at the press conference as everyone welcomed Tim Cook to the stage.

Tim Cook signaled to come on stage.

He picked up the microphone and awkwardly said in Chinese: "Hello, Mr. Jiang, nice to meet you! I am really surprised to be the tester of VI; it is my honor!"

"The honor is mutual, Mr. Cook," Jiang Cheng said with a smile—

At this moment, the whole world was watching!

"In fact, until now, I have always doubted the true meaning of virtual reality. With all due respect, this product of yours is indeed incredible!"

After completing some awkward words in Hua Country language, Tim Cook spoke fluently in English, "At this moment, I most admire a rational person, maintaining this question for your product, though not hastily dismissing your product, there's absolutely no identity, and I hope you can make my skepticism of Mr. Jiang vanish. Personally, I truly wish to witness the arrival of this new era and sincerely hope we can have some cooperation in the future!"

"As you wish, Mr. Cook," Jiang Cheng said with a smile. "Please put on this virtual reality device."

One spoke in English, the other in Chinese; however, there was no intrusion because this stage belonged to the world!

Tim Cook nodded, took the first-generation virtual reality device handed over by Jiang Cheng, slowly put it on, and laid down on the prepared chair.

"Are you ready, Mr. Cook?"

"Yes—I'm a bit nervous, but I think I am ready now, Mr. Jiang," Tim Cook nodded, sitting in the chair.

Jiang Cheng nodded and said, "Now, I'll open the VI for you, and at the same time, everyone here, everyone in front of TV screens, can see everything you see from the big screen behind me!" For your convenience, I will open the third view, rather than Mr. Cook's first view—"

Now it is time to witness the first-generation virtual reality VI!

Listening to Jiang Cheng's words, the audience quieted down, and everyone subconsciously held their breath, nervously watching Mr. Cook lying on the chair in front of them.

The once noisy press conference became pin-drop silent in an instant.

The contrast was indeed a bit stark.

In fact, not only the audience, but everyone in front of televisions, in front of computers, at this moment, was very quiet.

"Then it's time to create a miracle," someone murmured.

If there was a day when Earth was the quietest, it was today.

All eyes were focused on Jiang Cheng and Mr. Cook.

Initially, some people worried that the press conference might be a meticulously designed show fraud, but when Cook appeared, they found that worry exaggerated. If this was indeed a meticulously designed hoax, someone would have noticed and reported it.

Coming to the adult scene's scenario, it's not that easy to fool everyone!

Moreover, the one participating in the test is Apple CEO Cook! Despite being overshadowed by Jobs' aura, he remains a huge celebrity, followed by billions. How could such a character comply with a lie?

............

Under the watchful eyes of countless people, Jiang Cheng activated the VI device.

When the aperture lit up, the device launched successfully.

Jiang Cheng smiled and said: "This device has successfully started. There is a buffer time of a few seconds, which is the psychological link time for the connection device. You need to get the user's consent, and if you insist on refusing, you can close your eyes—this psychological connection will be invalid."

"Mr. Cook, please do not close your eyes next—yes, like that..." Well, Mr. Cook, we have now turned it into virtual reality!"

Virtual reality?

Everyone immediately looked in the direction of the big screen.

On the big screen, it showed a very luxurious office, with Mr. Cook sitting on an office chair. He slowly opened his eyes and looked around, a bit dazed, not immediately realizing where he was.

But Cook quickly reacted, looking around and saying, "I was testing a virtual reality device in the Grand Theater, and now I'm here—this world, this virtual reality world?"

Then he curiously observed everything in the room. Everything here was extremely real, almost making him unsure of what was real or imaginary in places.

"This is truly amazing!" Cook couldn't help but exclaim.

"What else can I do here?" Cook asked as he looked around. He knew he could talk to Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng took out his phone and sent a message to Cook inside.

At the top of Cook's view, there was a status bar—Cook paused for a moment and clicked the status bar, immediately seeing the message sent by Sue to him.

"Mr. Cook, I have given you the highest level of authority. In this room, you can change everything as you wish, which requires a large amount of energy, potentially making your mind quickly tired, but you could be capricious to obtain the best result."

"I can change everything in this room at will?" Cook paused and pointed to the room, "Let's make it clear."

As soon as Cook finished speaking, the whole room disappeared and then reappeared. A very simple Western-style office appeared in front of Cook's eyes.

"Oh my God! This is amazing!" Cook gazed at everything happening before him and said, "Fantastic! Is this really virtual reality? Wow, this virtual world is amazing. How did you do this?!"
