網游《第二生命》發財之路!

The Chinese with German pass Ailin Graef has earned over a million real US Dollars by playing the online game "Second Life", where she is known as "Anshe Chung" and has her own real estate company. In the past 2 years she has become rich only by playing the game - even with monthly Premium Account fees of 9.95 Dollars.

1,6 Million people play the game and about 50 companies have also implemented themselves virtually. The "Second Life" Economy worth approximately 60 Million Dollars grows 15% monthly. Many people have quit their jobs because they can earn enough money with the game to live because the virtual currency "Linden Dollars" can be exchanged into REAL US Dollars.

Anshe Chung is an avatar in the online world Second Life and was originally created by Ailin Graef. Together with her husband Guntram Graef, who goes by the name "Guni Greenstein" in Second Life, she has built an online business that engages in development, brokerage and arbitrage of virtual land, items and currencies. Since February 2006 the company has been legally registered in Hubei, China, under the name "ANSHECHUNG Studios, Ltd.".

Anshe Chung began by making large amounts of purely virtual money on MMORPGs such as Asheron's Call, Star Wars Galaxies and Shadowbane that she didn't convert into real money. However, this changed when she entered Second Life, a virtual world MMORPG in which the in-game currency, "Linden Dollars", can be 'officially' exchanged for real money. Players of Second Life can also buy areas of game land, for either in-game or real money. Anshe Chung earned an initial stake by selling custom avatar animations when these were a new feature of Second Life, and using this money she successfully became involved in the emerging market for land. Anshe Chung now owns several full servers worth of land, most of which are sold to other users.

Anshe also exercises control over what may be placed in her 'Dreamland' areas, ensuring that zoning rules are obeyed; most other land in Second Life is unzoned, where multiple different types of business or housing are located in adjacent areas. Philip Rosedale, the CEO of Linden Lab - the company that produces Second Life - has referred to Anshe as "the government" when referring to the role she plays on her zoned continent "Dreamland".

Anshe Chung has been featured as the first avatar ever on the cover of BusinessWeek [1] and named by MTV as one of the most influential players of all time [2]

According to an early 2006 report in eGames [3] her 400+ server empire in Second Life and rapidly growing content creation business made her a virtual world millionaire - and most likely the first one.

戴爾進駐網游《第二生命》兜售真實虛擬產品

  

　　【賽迪網訊】11月16日消息 被人們經常談論的虛擬三維世界《第二生命》(Second Life)，已成為發展最快的社區之一。

　　據vnunet網站報道，在這個世界里生活的將近140萬虛擬居民已引起了真實世界知名公司的關注，其中最新加入的一個就是電腦製造商戴爾公司。

　　戴爾家庭和小企業部門的資深副總裁羅·帕拉和《第二生命》的運營商林登實驗室(Linden Lab)的首席執行官本周舉行了一個虛擬新聞發布會，宣布戴爾進駐這個虛擬世界。

　　做為一家從來就不願與人合作共事的公司，戴爾在這個虛擬世界了購買了一塊屬於自己的土地——戴爾島（Dell Island），它包括一個迎賓區、一座戴爾工廠、一個會議大廳和一座博物館。戴爾打算利用這些設施向《第二生命》的居民兜售自己真實的和虛擬的產品。

　　戴爾介紹說，「這裡的居民可以通過多種途徑與戴爾進行交流。例如，在工廠里，居民可以看到產品的三維交互圖像，配置自己想要的系統，甚至可以在戴爾網站上定購真實的產品。」

　　「我們最初將向《第二生命》的居民提供定購XPS M1710筆記本電腦的機會，XPS 710遊戲台式機不久也可以定購。這只是一個開頭。」

　　戴爾此外還建立了一個「戴爾第二生命」網頁，裡面提供了關於該公司虛擬計劃更詳盡的信息。
