Yuei Vu spent a lot of effort, and finally made President Kaiba give up the idea of "arranging Yuei Vu to be the manager of the development department".
The reason Yuei Vu gave was that he knew nothing about commercial profitability, lacked personal ability, and his ability needed to be improved. He was unable to take on such an important task, afraid that he had failed the organization's cultivation and expectations…
…But in fact, the reason was laziness.
Anyway, he was now playing the role of a consultant, he would not come to work unless the president called him (he may not come even if the president did), and he still gets a good salary.
Why stand up when you can make money lying down?
Yuei Vu really felt that he was just a card player, and if he was really asked to be a department manager or something, he might not be able to do it. But another important reason was that he also felt that he couldn't spare that time.
Just kidding, idol NPCs like us are very busy!
Not only does he have to harvest local leeks regularly, but Yuei Vu was even thinking about when he would have time to expand his business scope and harvest a wave in other places. He was so busy, how could he have time to be a worker?
As he insisted on refusing, Kaiba only snorted but didn't continue to mention it.
Next, Kaiba mentioned the company's plan to develop a new generation of Duel Disks.
In fact, from Yuei Vu's point of view, he thought that the current generation of Kaiba Corp's Duel Disks had enough black technology, but the president didn't seem to think so.
He said the old model was functionally inconvenient in many ways and would soon be incapable of adapting in the dueling monster crazy wave that was about to sweep the world. For this reason, the development of the new generation of Duel Disks of Kaiba Corp has been put on the agenda.
After listening to Mokuba's explanation, Yuei Vu knew that all Duel Disks and duel arenas so far needed to use the satellites of Kaiba Corp to achieve such a realistic projection.
So far, Kaiba Corp could fully afford the projection function of the Duel Disk, but as the Duel Disk becomes more and more popular and the number of users increases day by day, it may be a bit of a burden.
For this reason, the development of a new generation of Duel Disks was imperative.
Hearing this, Yuei Vu couldn't help but come up with a bold idea.
He suggested on the spot: Since this was the case, maybe we could install a terminal for sending and receiving signals on the new generation of Duel Disks?
Then as long as signal stations were established on a large scale and Duel Disks were within the range covered by our company's signal, anyone could send a signal to the nearest Duel Disk through the terminal, and conduct the duel by sending data through wireless signals.
Kaiba and Mokuba glanced at each other and seemed to have begun to think about the feasibility of this plan.
Yuei Vu continued to diverge his thinking, saying that we could still charge based on the amount of data for each duel. Then we could also launch a monthly subscription package business, the package came with limited traffic, and extra charges for duel traffic exceeding the limited portion…
Then for those duel arenas in various places, or special places that have long-term duel needs, we could set up long-term, unlimited bandwidth projection equipment in this specific range, commonly known as WiFi...
And the terminal of the Duel Disk could not only be used to play cards but also be used to do various things. For example, sending messages, sending emails, chatting with people…
…It's just that the described style of the Duel Disk became more and more strange…
Yuei Vu just mentioned it casually? The president frowned and thought for a while…
… It seemed to be possible?
Yuei Vu felt that he may have unintentionally promoted the development of information technology in this world.
In fact, the technical level of the world of Yu-Gi-Oh seemed to be much higher than the reality, but it's not the same.
No matter how advanced the technology in this world was, its development and progress were all centered on and for the game of cards.
Yuei Vu thought if he hadn't come up with this idea himself, this world must still have a long way to go before the era of smartphones…
…Of course, even if the idea came to fruition, he wouldn't see a product like a smartphone.
In the foreseeable future, this would become the world of "Smart Duel Disks"…
Then, President Kaiba put forward the plan for the construction of "Duel Academy".
Although the company was currently concentrating on the construction of Kaiba Land, the president has initially conceived the idea of establishing a duel academy.
Before this, the timing was actually not yet ripe – establishing an academy that only trained card-playing experts, even in this era when Duel Monster has become popular on a large scale, would definitely cause widespread controversy.
After all, no matter how popular it was, Duel Monster was just a card game, at best, an upgraded version of e-sports. Establishing an academy dedicated to training gamers? Undoubtedly, many people would criticize them, saying that they trained people who were useless to society.
But things were different now.
People were forced to realize that Duel Monster was much more than a game in this world.
Nowadays, even various large consortiums, high-level national officials, and military agencies were now widely recruiting expert players.
Many national armies seemed to have begun to consider adding dueling to the recruit training program, setting up a duel special force to deal with supernatural events that could only be solved by playing cards…
Affected by this, the duelist's status was becoming higher and higher.
Especially the two current Duel Kings, Yuei Vu and Yugi, their fame has even gone out of the circle at the moment.
There may be no news among the common people, but rumors have spread widely, whether in the upper class or in the underground world.
It was said that thanks to the two Duel Kings on the human side, who played cards and eliminated the evil god, the world was not destroyed.
Therefore, Yuei Vu and Yugi's prestige could be said to be in full swing now, and they have been upgraded from a simple "card player" to a "significant contribution to all mankind".
If you learned how to play cards in this world, your future was really limitless.
"I don't plan to start the project of Duel Academy for the time being, but someone has already contacted Kaiba Corp to express interest," Kaiba said, crossing his fingers and resting his chin. "And the other party specifically expressed their desire to see you."
Yuei Vu pointed to himself: "Me?"
"I've made an appointment for you to meet, tomorrow."
President Kaiba said, and pushed the terminal dedicated to Kaiba Corp printed with the "KC" logo along the table.
Yuei Vu picked it up and took a look, and immediately recognized the other party's identity.
In fact, for an anime fan like him, this face was so familiar.
The bald forehead, the thick black eyebrows, the distinctive beard…
…Isn't this the Principal Samejima of Duel Academy?
