Building a Gaming Empire From Scratch

Chapter 99: Chapter 97: Headband, Prosthetic Limb, and Princess (150 extra points!)

Lincoln once again entered the busy mode.

He really did manage to not go to the studio to work, but he became even busier.

Previously, going to work at the studio was only a bit annoying because he would get up early but it wasn’t tiring, as he could also slack off. He would only really work for about an hour each day.

As a result, now that he’s not going to the studio anymore, he has to work through the night on equipment.

The test for subject one ended without any ups and downs.

After the test, he went back home, ordered a takeout for a meal, and then Lincoln dived back into his workspace to start making the second focus headband.

He had to work hard, as he just received a text message from Lorin after eating the takeout, reminding him to take the time to make a new focus headband. Although the wording was a reminder, it was actually a clear urging to hurry up.

However, even though Lincoln was busy with his hands, he was still thinking about his unfinished vacation.

On the day he worked overtime at the amusement park, he decided to take two days off for himself.

He used one of the two days on last Friday. The last two days were the weekend, which naturally do not count.

Then, he worked overnight on Sunday, which should be made up for, right? And working overtime on weekends doubles the fatigue! Forget about double pay; let’s just take double the time off.

As a result, the accumulated vacation days reached 3 days.

“Save it up!” Lincoln thought. He would take a break after finishing his work!

It might be hard, but he still had to complete the tasks at hand without cutting corners.

Not only did Lincoln make a brand new focus headband, but he also made a miniaturized neural modulator-demodulator.

The difficulty of this task was not that great. Even without ready-made technical drawings, Lincoln could make it, and it was originally in his plan.

After all, to make a brain-controlled prosthetic limb, this component is indispensable.

In his plan, most brain-controlled prosthetic limbs will be made in two versions.

One is a cost-effective version that can only achieve precise control of the prosthetic limb by the brain. This makes the use of the prosthetic limb handy, but it cannot provide realistic feedback like a real limb.

This is already enough to meet the needs of daily life and most professions, and the price can be kept as low as possible.

The other version is a high-end one with a full neural modulator-demodulator, with many sensing components integrated into the prosthetic limb. Not only can it be easily controlled by the brain, but it can also bring accurate feedback to the brain, resembling a real limb.

After careful calibration, it can even do delicate work such as making wristwatches and performing surgeries.

Of course, it can only reach the level of ordinary watchmakers and surgeons.

Lincoln did not dare to expect the highest level of performance.

Many industries’ top-level skills are indeed incredible and, to some extent, even defy common sense.

Outsiders would only call it magic.

Lincoln did not believe he could achieve such skills that had been honed and studied through year after year of practice, just relying on technology.

However, this does not prevent the second type of brain-controlled prosthetic limb from being powerful!

It’s just that this kind of brain-controlled prosthetic limb needs to be adapted to a miniaturized neural modulator-demodulator. The modulator-demodulator in the Mirage console is a bit large and inconvenient to use.

He hadn’t researched this before because it wasn’t on the schedule yet, and because without further advances in materials science and chip technology, such miniaturization would inevitably lead to performance shrinkage.

Now that he has the complete technology, although performance shrinkage is still inevitable, it saves Lincoln the effort of slowly researching and experimenting, so it is necessary to make it.

Another night of working hard and burning the midnight oil.

When Lorin’s assistant Ruan Pingyi came to knock on the door the next day, Lincoln was once again not out of bed.

However, Assistant Ruan was very calm now, standing outside the door with a peaceful attitude, completely devoid of the anxiety and dissatisfaction she had shown yesterday.

She knocked on the door from time to time, and was very gentle, not daring to use too much force.

When Lincoln finally opened the door, yawning and wearing his familiar sleepwear, she still cared enough to advise him.

“Your dark circles are getting worse, did you stay up late again last night? You should take care of your health! Don’t ruin it by staying up too many nights just because you’re young. It’s very bad for your body.”

“It’s fine.” Lincoln yawned and let her in, “It’s just these two days. I’ll be fine once this is done. Don’t worry, I’m only 22, but I pay a lot of attention to my health.”

Assistant Ruan was truly taken aback by the words “health preservation” coming from Lincoln’s mouth.

Health preservation at the age of 20?

“Um, okay.” Assistant Miss nodded, starting early on health preservation wasn’t a bad thing.

Assistant Miss brought a delicate wooden box with her this time. Inside, there were cushioning cotton pads and dark blue satin, which all exuded a high-end atmosphere.

Lincoln had already informed her beforehand that there would be a small portable modem this time, so the box had been adjusted accordingly.

Assistant Ruan carefully placed the headband and the small modem into the box, adjusting their positions in the recesses to ensure they wouldn’t bump against each other, and then closed the wooden box.

Before leaving, she didn’t forget to tell Lincoln that Lorin was already contacting some people, trying to help him find a way out. But the matter was rather complicated and might take some time, so he shouldn’t worry.

Lincoln wasn’t worried at all.

Not only was he not worried, but he also wished it would go as slowly as possible. If it were resolved in just two or three days, it would occupy his holiday again.

All he wanted right now was to take a break and be a couch potato for a few days.

Unfortunately, it was impossible.

After saying goodbye to Ruan Pingyi, he still couldn’t rest today because he had to arrange Princess Camille Victoria’s orientation.

After all, she wasn’t an ordinary intern, so he couldn’t just leave it to the company’s HR to handle.

After returning from the amusement park, they had a brief conversation and settled the general situation.

Camille Victoria had previously mentioned to her family that she wanted to intern at a game studio, but her family was basically opposed to it.

Her father bluntly said that it was a waste of life, and although her mother didn’t explicitly oppose it, she repeatedly hesitated to speak out, finally telling her daughter, “This isn’t something a princess should do.”contemporary romance

Her sister was even harder to understand. Ever since Camille Victoria had decided to pursue the study of human-computer interaction, her sister had found it difficult to understand but still supported her because she saw how persistent her sister was.

But now this sister of hers was actually going to intern at a game company! That was even harder for her to accept.

Since Camille Victoria brought up the idea, her sister hadn’t spoken to her properly for days.

Although it’s not ancient times anymore, and no one could command Camille Victoria to do or not do something, who would want to treat their family members like enemies?

So before going to the amusement park, Camille Victoria had been behaving well at home, constantly acting charmingly towards her parents and carefully pleasing her sister.

At least the family atmosphere wasn’t too tense, and she even managed to convince her soft-hearted mother.

It’s just that although her father and sister no longer frowned, whenever the topic of interning came up, the two of them just closed their mouths and shook their heads.

Camille Victoria had already made up her mind that in the month leading up to the start of school, she would wear them down and get them to agree. After all, she was determined to go!

However, things took a turn for the better after returning from the amusement park. She told her family that she could stay at home instead of going to Cloud Dream’s office and simply work in the virtual world through the Mirage Console.

Moreover, she would disguise herself, her identity would not be exposed, and no one in the outside world would know.

Upon hearing this, her already wavering father and sister agreed on the spot.

And today was the day of her orientation..
