"First, one crucial question: how many Dream Cities will there be in total?" Song He asked.
"Unfortunately, there won't be many Dream Cities for at least the next several years."
"The main constraint on building Dream Cities is electricity!"
"A virtual city accommodating 450,000 people living simultaneously, with massive exchanges of consciousness signals and real-time corrections to the city's changes—where not a single word or action from any person can be overlooked—generates a terrifying amount of data!"
"Therefore, we need an enormous supercomputer cluster to form a surging torrent of computing power before we can support the Dream City, this data behemoth!"
"Just how much electricity are we talking about? We'll need to build a dedicated power plant for practically every Dream City!"
"Therefore, we can't establish too many Dream Cities all at once. We can only proceed gradually, first building power plants and Data Centers in the cities with the most Dream Control Helmet users, then expanding to other cities step by step."
"These are the locations opening for the first batch of Dream Cities: 78 cities domestically and 22 cities overseas. A total of 100 cities have reached strategic cooperation agreements with us!"
"Within the next four months, our 100 Dream City Data Centers will be put into operation in these 100 cities. Each Data Center will launch two Dream Cities, for a total of 200 Dream Cities in the first round!"
The large screen behind Song He displayed a dense list of city names.
The audience widened their eyes as they searched for the names of their own cities. Those who found them screamed excitedly, while those who didn't let out disappointed sighs.
"Every Dream Control Helmet user can freely choose to enter one Dream City. I strongly recommend that everyone choose their local Dream City," Song
