Chapter 65 Formal Sale
January 26th.
It may not be a special day for ordinary people, because January 26 is not a holiday, even if it is a traditional Chinese festival, the Spring Festival is still ten days away.
But today, for all those who care about the frontiers of science and technology, is definitely a big day.
The world's first intelligent robot is officially on sale today.
Price: 200,000!
Of course, this 200,000 price is just the standard price for buying on the official website.
The price in the physical store in each city will be increased to a certain extent based on the sales situation in that city. It may be sold at a much higher price than the price on the official website.
Considering the price of Dabai, the physical store of the crystallization of science and technology will only be set up in the first-class cities of various countries.
Anhe City, as the capital of Ontario, is not a first-class city.
However, as the city where the technology crystallization company is located, Anhe City has opened a physical store.
In the early morning, the entire city of Anhe, as in all parts of China, is wrapped in the cold of winter. The howling cold wind blew through the steel jungle between the cities, causing all the pedestrians who had already gone out to tighten their collars.
In the center of Anhe City, the most prosperous commercial street, Dongchen Street. Outside the only science and technology crystallization physical store in Anhe City, there was a group of people who were pressed by the black, and they consciously lined up in a long line, and the length of the line was from the door of the store to the outside of the street.
While waiting, everyone in the team was exchanging information with their neighbors about what they knew about Dabai.
"Brother, you're also here to buy a big white?"
At the front of the line, an ordinary-looking young man in a black cashmere coat asked the person behind him, although he looked average, but the clothes on his body faintly showed the extraordinary wealth of his wealth.
"That's!" The young man who was asked was also dressed in a bad way, and when he heard someone ask, he first quietly glanced at the other party, and when he saw that the other party was also dressed extraordinary, he began to complain, "I have a buddy who took shit luck last month and grabbed a big white place!"
"You said you bought it, you bought it, and you brought it out every day to show off in front of you, do you say it's angry?" the young man gritted his teeth, but the envy, jealousy and hatred in his expression could not be concealed. "No, it's finally officially on sale today, why don't you take one home today, don't you want to go to the sky today!?"
"Oh, I'm just like you, there's a guy in the community where I live all day with a big white hanging there, and when he sees a person, he pulls and blows hard, and that's just a lot of unbeaten!" The young man in the black cashmere coat felt the same way, and began to vomit bitterness.
"The most important thing is that that guy brags every day, and he goes to hook up with girls all day long!"
That guy has been in our circle all day long saying that he met a beautiful girl today, and he had tea and chatted with a beautiful girl yesterday. ”
From showing off to being beautiful, after two young people of about the same age told what happened to them at the same time, they actually had a feeling of sympathy for each other and hating each other! So, the two young people from extraordinary families exchanged contact information and decided how to get back face in front of those people after buying Dabai!
Some people want to show off, some people want to enjoy high technology, no matter what it is, they have gathered in front of the physical store, waiting for the store door to officially open.
Not only Anhe City, but also other first-class cities in China, including the central cities of many foreign countries, have gathered a large number of users who are eager to buy Dabai at the door of all science and technology crystallization physical stores.
Due to the time difference, the official opening hours of all physical stores will naturally be different, but this does not affect the enthusiasm of users. Everyone was waiting for the door to open and then bring Dabai home as fast as they could.
The buyers were anxious, and the media spared no effort to start reporting on it.
Liu Ying is a reporter for the "Anhe Daily," and their newspaper has long been completely prepared for the day of 26 January. It has become the most famous technology company in the city, and every bit of technology crystallization will trigger their nerves.
Today is the day when the first intelligent robot is on sale, and in order to get a first-hand report, the interview car of the evening newspaper yesterday has come to the door of this store.
Liu Ying, who had been waiting all night, could see people waiting in front of the store one after another at dawn.
As time went on, the originally scattered team was now out of sight. Seeing this, she immediately reacted and asked her partner to carry the camera, and the two started their first interview today.
The first interview subject Liu Ying found was a family of three, both of whom were young, with a little boy who looked like he was only seven or eight years old.
"Hello, sir. I'm Liu Ying, a reporter from Anhe Daily, can I give you a brief interview?" Liu Ying walked up with her partner with a smile and asked the male host of the family of three.
Suddenly having to face the camera and the microphone, the family of three was a little surprised.
However, after the man was surprised, he quickly reacted, and he smiled: "Okay, what do you want to ask?"
"May I ask your surname, sir?" Liu Ying smiled slightly and began to get to the point.
"Don't give your surname Ge. ”
"Then Mr. Ge, you must be queuing up here to buy the world's first intelligent robot Dabai, can you tell me why you bought it?" Liu Ying asked the first question with a smile, and then handed the microphone to Mr. Ge.
"Why?" Mr. Ge was stunned, as if he was surprised by Liu Ying's question, he thought about it and said, "I think it should be after watching the video of Dabai saving people that he made up his mind." ”
"Oh?" Liu Ying was surprised for a moment, and then asked, "Why after that video, didn't you think about buying Dabai before?" ”
Hearing Liu Ying's doubts, Mr. Ge smiled awkwardly and said, "Maybe you think it's incredible, but I don't believe much in the diagnosis of robots, after all, they are all fixed programs that are entered, and there may be diagnostic errors." ”
Mr. Ge's answer made Liu Ying's eyes light up, and she felt that she had found a news point.
"Then you mean, you don't believe in the diagnosis of diseases by intelligent robots, and you prefer to go to the hospital for examination when you are sick, right?"
"Suffice it to say, I personally prefer to go to the hospital for a check-up without going through the test. Mr. Ge didn't care about the meaning of Liu Ying's words, he nodded and confirmed.
"I see, then you bought Dabai because of its ability to protect users, right?" asked Liu Ying.
Mr. Ge nodded and said, "That's right. Because of work, my wife and I have less time at home, although the child can be handed over to the elderly, but the old man is old after all, it is easy to negligently cause accidents, buy a big white back, not only can help us take care of the children, but also help us take care of the elderly at home, the most important thing is that it can protect people, so that we can go out and rest assured. ”
"Okay, I understand what Mr. Ge meant, thank you for your cooperation. ”
After a brief interview, Liu Ying continued her search for her next target. In accordance with the order of the interviews she had planned, she interviewed a number of young men and women separately, all of whom gave different reasons.
But more people don't care about the function of Dabai, but the technology contained in it.
Over time, when the sun officially hangs in the sky, radiating its own warm glow, the doors of the store open!
For a while, the crowd was moving, and everyone unconsciously squeezed forward gently. Buyers can't wait to rush into the store and get their hands on it. I'm afraid that if I am one step late, I will be snapped up by others.
200,000 is a lot of money, but for China, where the economy has developed rapidly, the vast majority of families can still get it.
The crowding of thousands of people made Liu Ying, who was interviewing on the side, feel terrified, and some accidents could easily occur in this crowded situation.
If left unchecked, the buying frenzy will evolve into a different picture.
Just when Liu Ying was worried, two female staff members in white uniforms walked out of the store, holding microphones in their hands, and behind the two of them, were more than a dozen tall and burly male employees. The male employees each held two large speakers in their hands and placed them on either side of the store's door.
The rest of the male employees were holding a box with silver-white magnetic card-like objects in the box.
Seeing the crowd surging outside, and even showing signs of pushing in some places, the two female employees looked at each other, and they both looked at each other with a trace of worry in their eyes, and one of them hurriedly stood up with the microphone and shouted: "Please all buyers calm down, don't crowd, for your own safety and the safety of others, please keep the team neat and orderly." ”
The voice of the staff spread far through the speakers, causing the crowd in front of the door to pause, and then the crowd slowly dispersed.
All the people who pushed and shoved felt scared after they dispersed, and if it wasn't for the timely reminder of the staff, the crowd continued to push and shove, and it was likely to become a stampede. At the thought of that kind of consequence, everyone's hearts were cold, and then they obediently walked into the team with great palpitations.
The two were relieved to see that the crowd had stopped pushing and shoving and had re-lined up. Another person said: "Thank you for your strong support for our products, our store has specially prepared a sufficient number of intelligent robots, so you can buy with confidence, and don't worry about not being able to buy them." ”
"Now, please line up and slowly enter our store in order, and before entering the store, please receive a temporary experience card from our staff, which will allow you to temporarily experience the charm of the world's first intelligent robot in our store!"
As the flow of people slowly entered, the staff in front of the door breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
In addition to the employees who issued temporary experience cards, other male employees walked to the team one after another to manage the order of the team and prevent some unexpected conflicts.
