Dong Qianqiu didn't care about wiping his feet, picked up the presbyopic glasses on the table, turned on the phone, and clicked into station B.
Station B was downloaded during his live test last year. He, an old man, doesn't like to watch the videos of these young people. He rarely uses this app. When he cleaned his phone a few days ago, he almost deleted it.
An old friend instructed him to search for an up host called Zoo. He didn't need to search. The name of this person's live broadcast room was on the top of the homepage.
When Dong Qianqiu entered this live broadcast room, the densely populated barrage almost blocked all the pictures, and even the content of the barrage itself could not be seen clearly.
When Dong Qianqiu clicked the button to close the barrage, he saw Ye Tang and the beauty in white standing behind her. But the most conspicuous thing in the picture is not them, but the tabby cats and robots playing in the middle of the gray stage.
The old man held his glasses in surprise and stared at the square-shaped robot.
His retirement does not mean that he no longer pays attention to the technology circle.
The discipline he has studied in the past few decades is computer security, which does not mean that he does not understand the subject of artificial intelligence.
He has already predicted that the future will be the era of intelligent technology. Before he retired, he began to prepare the school's artificial intelligence laboratory. Cai Yun was invited back from the United States. Cai Yun and Ye Tang were both his highly valued students.
After the exam last year, Dong Qianqiu and Ye Tang no longer communicate.
The life of the retired dean has nothing to do with the senior three candidates. There was nothing surprising behind Ye Tang, and no news of her could be seen in the news.
Dong Qianqiu also knew that she was the No. 1 in the college entrance examination. She taught in University A and had seen so many top candidates in the college entrance examination. The teachers all had a unified consensus-that a good college entrance examination did not mean a promising future.
Entering the live broadcast room midway, without seeing the beginning, Dong Qianqiu could not determine the relationship between the robot and Ye Tang.
She is just the host? Dong Qianqiu still has an impression of her eloquence, which is indeed very good.
Is she a member of the R&D team? No matter which module is in charge of the robot, being a freshman is amazing!
From a critical point of view, this robot is a bit rudimentary. Dong Qianqiu can see it through the screen. His appearance and materials are not very good. It cannot be compared with the robots he has seen when he participated in academic exchanges in the United States and Japan. ratio.
But it has all the basic functions of the robot-movement, recognition and execution.
"Our company's new product is on the market, and a robot like this only costs 2,499 yuan," Ye Tang's quote made the audience on the scene and behind the screen cheered and shouted that it was cheap!
Dong Qianqiu also feels cheap,
He looked for the shopping cart button all over the screen and wanted to place an order now!
"The shopping channel will be opened after the press conference. You can buy it through our official website or Taobao Minglin flagship store," Ye Tang continued. "The production of companion robots is more complicated and sophisticated than sweeping robots, and the production capacity of the factory can't keep up. The first batch is only 1,000 units, and each person is limited to one."
As an old man, Dong Qianqiu never believed in the hunger marketing set. The official said that it was out of stock, so he would not buy it. When it became available, he was not interested in this product anymore.
However, this time he could not wait to open the official website to snap up, even if he didn't own a pet at all, he never had this feeling when he was young.
Ye Tang didn't use inspiring words to sell. Everyone's desire to shop was aroused purely because of this thing, which really aroused their curiosity.
Disruptive products, coupled with suitable prices, why not grab them
In fact, the cost of the companion robot is not high. It shares some basic components with the sweeping robot, but Ye Tang has added a controller system that contains a series of instructions to control it.
The most valuable is this system.
At the beginning, Ye Tang negotiated with Lin Wei and Ming Lei that the price should not exceed 2,000 yuan, and 1999 yuan is very appropriate.
However, the double eleven strikes have made the two big brothers unreliable until now. They have unanimously raised the price to 2,499 yuan, which is another form of declaration of war, like the price of the other company's sweeping robot.
Anyway, consumers feel that cheap is not good.
The product launch conference has come to an end, Ye Tang finished his concluding remarks, and finally added a paragraph, "In addition, thank you all for your love of our company's sweeping robot, so that some friends and businessmen have spent a lot of money to ask researchers to'develope' similar products. Our company feels flattered."
Speaking of the word "development", Ye Tang emphasized her language, and her eyes were full of dignified and polite smiles when she looked at the camera. She didn't say any complaints or negative remarks here. She hoped that the rival company and Cai Yun would understand their attitude. Remove the copycat version of the sweeping robot as soon as possible.
The effect of the conference is remarkable,
In just 10 seconds, the companion robot that had just been put on the shelf was sold out.
Dong Qianqiu was too old and fast enough to grab it. He looked at the word "sold out" and sighed, and suddenly thought that he could directly buy one from Ye Tang!
On Minglin's official Weibo, the number of messages asking for purchases has soared to 1w+.
This is the most sensational moment since they opened Weibo.
Lin Yong is the person in charge of Weibo. His father gave him the work of network operation and made him take it seriously. He reposted the video of the press conference and the photo of Mingxue hugging the cat—this photo is a product promotion picture, Ye Tang Mingxue is designated as the spokesperson of the product, anyway, the fertilizer will not flow into the field of outsiders,
"The robot is stepping up time for production, please be patient!"
Lin Yong was so busy that night that he didn't sleep, and their official Weibo, Station B and Douyin all burst.
Mingxue also posted an update on her Weibo, "I am Mingxue, and it is my good friend-Xiao Ming." This sentence is a product slogan designed by Ye Tang, and she named the robot "Xiao Ming" It was inspired by the Ming family's surname.
This time, without spending money on speculation, Mingxue's reputation has become even greater.
Netizens call her "the big beauty who hugs the cat"!
At the suggestion of the team, she sent another selfie with Xiao Li's picture of the Nine Palaces.
Minglin company and pet companion robot "Xiao Ming" dominated the hot search list of science and technology news for three consecutive days, and the video of the press conference was widely circulated on the Internet.
When the first batch of 1,000 customers had not received the goods, Zoo took the lead in launching an open-box live broadcast of Xiaoming robots on the whole network. He drove the samples that Ye Tang had brought back.
Tang Bao in the video also likes Xiao Ming very much.
This live video once again exploded, bringing a 100w+ fan growth to Zoo, and once again aroused the envy and hatred of peers, because they had no products in their hands and couldn't get them, and the bloggers who participated in the press conference that night received what they deserved. In addition to the compensation, Minglin Company did not give them Xiaoming robots.
So why does Zoo have samples
They feel unbalanced.
At this time, Ye Tang, who had disappeared for more than ten days, reappeared on the campus.
