Chen Yao used to do real estate auctions on the Yuanverse platform. At that time in Europe, a piece of land was sold for tens of millions of dollars!
This time we are trying something new and auctioning shops on the Metaverse platform.
Wang Guixue doubted: "Will someone really take the photo?"
The Metaverse may sound like a very handsome name, but in the final analysis, it is just a bunch of program codes.
Chen Yao just smiled, no one could guess what the final result would be.
At that time in Europe, real estate auctions were very popular, but in China we really didn¡¯t know the market situation.
After all, this is a new concept, and the acceptance of the Metaverse is a mystery.
Chen Yao said: "Promote it well and you will know in the evening after three days."
"Yeah." Wang Guixue nodded, then turned and walked out of the office.
Sun Zhennan drank the last drop of coffee, put down the cup and stood up to go back. Version 2.0 had just been completed and the team was already working on the development of 3.0.
Although I am very busy and laugh at myself as a coder, I still enjoy it and love this job. Watching good functions being developed one by one, I feel a strong sense of accomplishment.
The office became very quiet, and Guan Xinyan was approving documents with his pen in hand.
Chairman Chen Da rarely comes back to the company except for some important matters. Then he got up and walked out of the office without anything else.
It took about half an hour to get back home.
The floor at home was covered with dust. I went back to my hometown during the Chinese New Year, and then to my girlfriend¡¯s house. No one stayed there for nearly a month.
Lin Yuhan is sitting on the bed in the bedroom, holding her cell phone and browsing short videos. She has nothing else to do. Novels and short videos are the two major themes of life.
After starting the sweeping robot, Chen Yao walked into the room and put down his luggage, opened the refrigerator and took out a bottle of Sprite, and sat down on the sofa.
I clicked on Weibo and glanced at it, and the news about the Yuanverse store became a hot search topic.
The prices of shops in Gengmei Mall are not low, the starting price is one million!
Compared to a physical store, the price is not high. However, it is a virtual store after all. The starting price is one million, which has attracted a lot of heated discussions among netizens.
"I finally understand what 'how bold a person is, how rich the land is'. Are the top executives of Gengmei Mall going crazy for money?"
"It's okay to play it as a game, but damn, the starting price is only one million, all merchants are fools."
"The metaverse created by Legendary Tracks is still very good. If you do business on it and sell goods, it would be worth one million."
"What's the value? It's just an online virtual store. It's essentially the same as other online shopping platforms."
Chen Yao watched it from beginning to end, and most of the people in the comment area were skeptical. In fact, this is normal. Not many people can accept any new thing.
In 2003, Alibaba launched a certain treasure, but no one believed it and thought it was a scam platform.
The Internet is virtual, and the shops are virtual. Who dares to buy something on it? If the other party doesn't deliver the goods, they may also send you a brick by express delivery.
In 2008, when JD.com was making 3C home appliances, many people were not optimistic about it, and many people ridiculed that those who bought mobile phones and washing machines online were idiots.
If the experience of going to a physical store is not better than buying it online, then you are not afraid that it will send a refurbished piece of junk to you?
However, many years later, online shopping has become a way of life for many people and is something they take for granted.
The same is true for the Metaverse. There will always be many people who are skeptical when they first come out, thinking that it is just a capital hype to play with concepts and deceive consumers.
But who can guess whether this kind of shopping that simulates real scenes will become mainstream in the future world?
¡¡
Three days later at 7:50 pm.
There are about ten minutes left before the auction starts, and it will be held online.
Because of the hype on the Internet, this auction attracted many viewers to watch online, and the number of people in the live broadcast room has exceeded 1 million.
Chen Yao was sitting in the living room at home, put on legendary glasses, and entered the Yuanverse auction house.
The spacious hall has rows of seats neatly arranged.
Guan Xinyan, dressed in a black professional suit, walked towards him.
"Is it very lively?"
¡°Well, there are a lot of people signing up for the auction!¡±
Chen Yao asked: "How many are there?"
"More than 1,000 merchants." Guan Xinyan said with a smile.
It greatly exceeded expectations. I originally thought it would be great to have 100 people sign up for the first auction.
The starting price of a virtual store is only one million, not everyone canAcceptable.
"Hello, Mr. Chen Yao, I'm so happy to see you!"
A woman about 30 years old looked over with a smile. She was wearing gold and silver, and the diamond necklace around her neck was particularly eye-catching.
"Who are you?" Chen Yao looked at her doubtfully.
Guan Xinyan introduced: "This is the proprietress of a jeweler from Xiangjiang, her name is Cai Liuyue."
Chen Yao smiled, nodded, and shook hands with her.
"Are you also one of the auctioneers?"
"Yes!" Cai Liuyue said with a smile: "As soon as the concept of the Yuan Universe came out, I paid close attention to it. I am very optimistic about its prospects."
"What exactly will it be used to sell?"
¡°According to this starting price, the final transaction price will exceed 3 million in minutes. If such an expensive store is used to sell clothes, pants, shoes and socks, it will be overqualified.
Cai Liuyue smiled and said: "They are all expensive luxuries, jewelry, gold, perfume, and bags."
It is difficult to display the luxury of these luxury goods when they are sold in ordinary online stores.
In a 3D store, customers can see every detail of the product, allowing more people to see these luxurious products without getting them dirty.
As the income of Chinese people is getting higher and higher, more and more people can afford luxury goods. This market is growing at a rate of 20% every year.
Attract more people to come into the store to watch and increase product sales.
In addition to jewelers, there are also car companies competing with her for this store.
In the metaverse mode, consumers can see the sewing machine at home and simulate a test drive!
This is impossible to achieve with traditional online store platforms.
Chen Yao smiled and said, "I wish you good luck."
All the guests arrived one after another, not just Chinese, but also businessmen from overseas.
¡°Brother, I¡¯m here!¡± Lin Yuhan also entered the Yuanverse auction house.
"Aren't you coding in your room?"
¡°It¡¯s lively here, relax and come up to the Yuan Universe to have a look.¡± Lin Yuhan said with a smile.
The auction was about to begin. Chen Yao, Guan Xinyan, Sun Zhennan and Lin Yuhan sat down in the front row.
After waiting for a while, an auctioneer wearing a gray and white professional suit appeared, holding a hammer in his hand.
She cleared her throat and played the video of the store first, introducing its highlights in detail.
This is all done before the auction and is a common practice.
She smiled and said: "Everyone has seen that the conditions are excellent in all aspects.
The starting price is 1 million, and each bid must not be less than 10,000. "(Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
