Lin Jingxian develops a VR martial arts game called The Great Jianghu.
It has only two core mechanics: everything is one hundred percent realistic, and one day in the real world equals one year in the game!
At first, players across the internet complain that the game is too realistic. Even learning basic sword techniques requires chopping wood for three full days, and the pain and hunger feel completely real.
Then a renowned academic happens to put on the headset. After spending three years in the game deriving a room-temperature superconductivity formula that has stumped researchers for a decade, he wakes up to find that only three days have passed in reality...
One night, government officials knock on Lin Jingxian’s door, and The Great Jianghu is swiftly classified as a top-level state secret!
From then on, the martial arts game takes a completely different direction.
While ordinary players still fight tooth and nail over martial arts manuals:
An army special operations company completes ten years of extreme, casualty-free solo combat training in the game, turning every soldier into a close-quarters killing machine;
A mysterious group of players bearing the title “Chinese Academy of Sciences” builds an exclusive research base on a remote island overseas, using the time difference to handcraft lithography machine blueprints and controlled nuclear fusion technology.
A few years later, China’s advances in science and technology astonish the world.
Foreign intelligence agencies finally discover the secret. People overseas scramble to get into the game, frantically studying Chinese and the meridians and extraordinary vessels.
The spies they manage to send in are immediately branded “demonic cultists” by domestic players across the server, who hunt them down for contribution points.
Facing a stunned global press corps, Lin Jingxian, now hailed as a national strategic asset, can only spread his hands helplessly:
“My original dream really was just to make a martial arts game. Who knew the country would turn it into a mental time chamber?”
Good-looking, good-looking, so good-looking, good-looking, good-looking
This value is not quite right. 15 Minutes: If it lasts three days, one day can only compare to 288 days. Normally, it should be about 4 minutes compared to one day.
