Getting A System In A Modern World

Chapter 207: Busy Days Ahead



Silas understood what Kim meant by competing with Merta but he found it very funny as he has no plan to compete with them. Also, he doesn't think that his so-called competitor has what it takes to compete with him.

He was aware of their newly launched product: a device called an AR glass. He wasn't bothered by it as he knew of the massive advantage that he held.

Who would want an AR glass that costs so much when you can get a VR gaming pod that also comes with a VR game for almost the same amount?

Of course, Silas wasn't planning on selling the VR Pod for that cheap a price. Though he won't be making a loss if he sells it dirt cheap but that would greatly undervalue the device.

Silas understands how human psychology works. When a product that is of high quality and performance is put before one that is inferior to it, and the quality one is selling for a very low price, they would go for the inferior one.

Of course, there has to be some reason why the one is being purchased and one of those reasons is the brand name. There are many examples but Silas would prefer not to mention them.

Silas looked at Kim who was still looking at him strangely and he smiled. He understood that she was worried but he knew that her worries was only because she doesn't know what he's capable of.

He would love to tell her everything and ease her worries but he can't do that. At least not now.

"Kim, you don't have to worry about anything. Nothing's going to happen and even something is to happen, I won't let anything happen to you or anyone. You just have to believe me," Silas said, doing his best to reassure Kim.

Though Silas said that, he was really hoping for something to happen as it would give him the best excuse to initiate the next step of hisnplan.

Kim sighed at Silas' words. She knew that this point she can only choose to believe him. Even though she has this strong feeling that something will definitely happen and being aware of how strong her instincts are as a woman, she knew that she has no choice but to believe in Silas.

The only thing that made her to feel relief and relaxed a little is that Silas has never failed on any of his promises.

"When do you plan to release the Pod and game into the market?" She asked after she had calmed herself down.

Siilas was happy when he saw Kim was calm and no longer had that strange look on her face.

"I don't plan release the two of them just yet. I plan for two to three rounds of beta testing before releasing them."

"So when are you starting the first beta testing rounds?" Kim asked.

"This month. In a couple of days. We will send an email to some of the diligent players of our first game and some other popular video game players to come for the beta testing rounds. I also plan to compensate them financially for their troubles," Silas said, explaiining his plan a little to Kim.

Kim nodded in approval at Silas' plan but she found a little with it.

"What do you mean to tell them, I mean the beta testers. What do you plan on telling them that they are going to be testing?" She asked curiously.

Silas couldn't help but smile when he heard Kim's question. He knew that she was going to be shocked by the response he's going to give.

"I plan to tell them the truth. A very short video clip of the game and an image of the Pod will be included in the mail, with a link to a site that has even more videos of the game and photos of the Pod."

"....You never planned on taking things slow from the beginning." Kim sighed.

She didn't know what else to say. She would be lying if she said that she doesn't understand what Silas was trying to do but still….

She could only sigh again when she thought of it.

Silas smiled when he saw that Kim understood his inetntions. The reason why he plans to include those things in the email that will be sent is because he want to create a buzz. A wave, internet sensation, a pr stunt, whatever it is called, Silas wants to generate it and get people's attention.

He knew that something as extremely unbelievable as a full dive VRMMORPG and a device that allows one to play such a game is something that will create a lot of buzz on the internet. And even if people find it to be very unbelievable, for more reasons than one, they would want to confirm the authenticity of it.

"Can I see the Pod and the game?" Kim finally asked after a while of being silent.

"Sure, follow me," Silas said as he stood up from his seat.

Kim wasn't surprised when she heard Silas telling her to follow him. She could already guess that the Pod was already in the headquarter. She smiled stiffly and stood up from her seat to follow Silas.

The three of them, with Luna included, left Kim's office and made their way to the room where the warehouse people moved the Pods into.

Silas opened the door of the office and walked in, followed closely behind by Kim and Luna. As expected, when they walked into the room, they saw ten Pods occupying the room.

The room that the Pods are in was previously a conference that has never been used before. Since it was not being utilized, Silas decided to make use of it by making it the beta testing room.

"So, here it is. The world's first fully functional VR gaming pod," Silas said as he walked to the pod and ran his fingers on its surface, getting a feel of its smooth metallic surface.

Kim was in awe when she saw the Pods. She wouldn't had been so shocked if it was one or two pods but right in front of her are ten of the VR gaming pods that Silas plans to launch into the market.

'Is this what he has been busy with in Venezuela?'

Her curiosity towards Silas just keeps increasing with each passing day due to his actions.

She slowly walked towards one of the pod and carefully placed her hands on it. She was slightly disappointed when she saw that there was no reaction from the pod.

Silas couldn't help but chuckle when he saw this. He knew what Kim was expecting but that wasn't possible as she has yet to create an account.

"Do you want to try it out?" Silas smiled at her. This is a m-vlempyr special

"No. I'm good enough with just looking at it. I'm not ready for stuffs like this," Kim replied and took her hand off the pod.

"So, when do you plan to start contacting the beta testers and do you already have some people in mind?" Kim asked as she took one more look at the pod.

"Luna will take care of that. All I need for you to do is to pass the information down to those under you, so that they can be prepared because the coming days are to going to be very busy!"
