Chapter 209: Genesis (4) Press Conference 1

207、

Ningnan

People's Hall

The theater can accommodate 3,000 people, divided into two floors, Emily has only used the first floor after accounting, so with VIP customers, the whole event only accepted 1,000 spectators, including more than 200 family and friends.

Looking at the noisy auditorium, the occasional flashing lights, Emily smiled, she strode to the center of the stage, domineering, and in an instant the whole venue fell silent, and the eyes of more than a thousand people were watching her.

Emily was very calm, even a little disdainful, she picked up a wireless microphone, did not greet, and said directly: "According to the agreement of the invitation letter, Qilin Wings requires that no photos are allowed at the press conference, and mobile phones are not allowed to enter the scene, everyone agrees to this agreement, and the receipt has been confirmed." ”

"So, please reporter Li Yunfei of Ningnan Morning News and reporter Wang Xinlin of the New Times," she said the names of ten people in one breath, and then said: "Since you have violated the agreement, carried mobile phones and other photographic equipment, and carried out photo and phone calls, please take the initiative to leave here." Thank you for your cooperation. ”

With that, she turned around and walked off the stage, with a momentum of giving up who else she was, holding the audience. There was silence for a moment.

At this time, more than a dozen staff members approached the people on the list and urged them to leave.

At the venue, some people complained that the unicorn wings were like the space shuttle launching into space, as for that?

Others said: How boring is the Qilin Wings, and there are people standing in dark corners, staring at whether we have mobile phones or not!!

These words instantly aroused everyone's admiration, and some people even said that they simply left the scene collectively and ignored them.

But a cold voice said, "You underestimate the Qilin Wings like this?!" Why do you want to come here? The row of cameras and laser detectors above the stage are decorations! From the moment we stepped into the venue, every detail reflected the skills contained in the Qilin Wings. ”

"Are you saying they're analyzing, identifying, and identifying us through those cameras and laser detectors in the front row?" Some people are stunned, but think about the screening of customers in the bubble tea shop, isn't it actually the same?

Less than five minutes later, Emily took the stage again and announced a list of five people, and after the staff evicted them from the field, she continued: "Now, if you still have friends with mobile phones, photography and video equipment, please take the initiative to contact us, just raise your hand, and give all the equipment to the staff, otherwise we will continue to clean up." If a pinhole camera is used to secretly shoot and distribute these videos, we will lock it down and take legal action. This is no joke. ”

"If you have any objections to what I said above, and if you can't understand or are unwilling to implement it, please leave immediately." Emily is a gentle Jiangnan woman, but at this time she is unusually strong and spicy. Everyone's attention.

This toss only added a lot of topics, but no one wanted to leave, the lights flickered, and the venue gradually fell silent.

Most of the media invited to come were already holding back a wave of resentment at this time, and they were determined to criticize the Qilin Wings and make the Qilin Wings become the Wild Dog Wings after the press conference was over.

The lights in the venue gradually dimmed, but the lights on the stage turned on, which was the rhythm of the press conference, and everyone held their breath and waited for the press conference to begin.

In the corner of the stage, Qi Na pushed Lisa and said, "It's time to perform." ”

Lisa calmed her emotions, and her intimacy with Qi Na seemed to be a good medicine, and she strode forward, full of strength and confidence.

There was no opening music, no host, just the sound of heels clattering through the microphone.

"Good morning, friends." The light sound is full of energy.

This was the opening remark, and Lisa took a deep breath and seemed unaffected in the face of the sparse applause.

"You will be here to witness the moment when the Qilin Wings changed the world, and this moment will also be remembered in the annals of history, and for the sake of trade confidentiality, we do not want more details to be known to the outside world, so your mobile phones, cameras and other equipment will be temporarily kept by our staff." Lisa began to start with secrecy: "In order to meet everyone's needs for photos of the press conference, you can get a chance to take photos at the Kirin Bubble Tea Shop after the press conference, and for media reporters, we will prepare photos for you to use." ”

Lisa made a series of explanations, and then stepped into the formal content: "On the first working day after the end of the New Year's Day holiday, Kirin Wings put into the practical application of the first robotic arm, that is, the Kirin Milk Tea Shop, this application has been widely recognized, and then we began to deploy the Kirin Wings Milk Tea Shop in large cities across the country, at the same time, with Ningnan as the center, we began to promote the Kirin Wings logistics system in Northern, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and other cities. We hope that more people can enjoy the services of intelligent robots as soon as possible. ”

As she spoke, she wandered around the stage in a small area, the wireless remote control in her hand played the slides according to her, and the large LED screen displayed the pictures of the bubble tea shop, logistics and other scenes.

"From Idea to the creation of this company, but a month, from the creation of the company to this moment only half a year, from the idea of intelligent robots, to our purchase of the first domestic robotic arm, it is only a month, it is worth mentioning that in cooperation with domestic manufacturers, this is not pleasant, which forced us to start redesigning, manufacturing our own robotic arm, so we began to design and make prototypes ourselves" Lisa briefly introduced the development process of Qilin Wings, she followed Qi Na's requirements, Ignoring the introduction to Qi Na.

"This is the first robotic arm we bought, it is very simple, it is used in industrial production occasions, it lacks flexibility, and it cannot cope with ordinary life scenarios, we have made a little improvement to this product, two fingers to three fingers, and the flexibility has been improved to a certain extent. After that, we abandoned the product and it is currently stacked in our warehouse. ”

"This is the prototype we designed, the development code is the Xuanwu I, and there are similarities with the models we saw earlier, this is the type II, type III, type IV, this is the type IV made of all-metal, and now the commonly used type IV+ made of metal, magnesium and aluminum alloy."

"The three-joint design of shoulder, elbow and bowl greatly improves the flexibility of the robotic arm and has the same mobility as a human being, which depends on the joining of Miss Min Rui, a well-known expert in bionic robots in China, to make up for our shortcomings in this regard."

"The improvement of performance is not simply a stack of hardware, we have Alex, the best programmer in the world, in terms of software, and his efforts have made the metal shell give a soul."

"Of course, the efforts of all the staff led by our chief R&D engineer Gao Qinglin and R&D manager Lin Hui are more important."

On the big screen, there are scenes of employees greeting the camera, and there will be name tags next to the characters.

Lisa paused for a moment and continued: "Then the next pictures are randomly captured by the camera on the robotic arm during the test and development process, of course, these pictures will be shown to you after screening, the development process is very painful, it is normal not to sleep for a month or two, just start using coffee to refresh yourself, and then everyone thinks that it doesn't work at all, so someone buys chili peppers, and then they buy more refreshing Chaotian peppers directly." ”

Some on-site pictures were released, and a lot of parts could be seen, and there were R&D personnel discussing, and many shots were Gao Qinglin, Lin Hui, and the back of the bald Min Rui, which Qi Na deliberately ignored.

Then a six-layer storage shelf appeared on the big screen, on which were densely stacked with pickled peppers in different states that had been opened and covered.

"These glass bottles are a month's worth of consumption."

As soon as the photo changed, a tired staff member was sending three Chaotian peppers to his mouth with chopsticks in his hand.

The audience burst into laughter.

"OK, the result of our efforts, that is, IV and IV+, has been arranged for mass production, and I hope that in a month or two, we can see more of them being applied in the life scenarios of a large number of ordinary people."

"To this end, we hereby announce that the first product we released is RobotStore, a robot app store for ordinary developers, who can design the application of various types of robotic arms in Xuanwu according to the development guidelines we provide, as well as the life scene application of more products in the future, rather than simply in the industrial field."

What appeared on the screen was the RobotStore interface, and sensitive Chinese people noticed that this interface was all in English, and there was no expected Chinese interface.

"With the large-scale production of the two models of Xuanwu, its price will also be reduced, we believe that in the middle and end of this year, the price will be able to reach the level of a domestic car, which will also greatly improve the application of Xuanwu robot, and with it is the lack of application software, such as in the catering industry, use it to cashier, order; In the field of safety, its flexibility can fully meet the requirements of dangerous goods inspection; In the repair industry and medical industry, Xuanwu IV and IV+ have the flexibility of a human arm and have a wide range of application scenarios. ”

"Of course, we will audit all the software on the RobotStore, take responsibility for safety, and we are responsible for the safety of users."

There is no doubt that the popularization of the application of this robotic arm will inevitably lead to the disappearance of a large number of repetitive jobs of low value, resulting in some people losing their jobs.

But this is a normal historical progress, how can the world world stop moving forward for some people?!

Moreover, in the future, a large number of positions will be born to serve the robotic arm, and the progress of society is always carried out in this trade-off, bumps and bumps, and there is nothing to regret.

"For Kirin Wings, the direction we are trying to do is to create a more efficient logistics system, hoping to complete a closed intelligent robot workflow, in this regard, we will continue to cooperate with the life online website, continue to promote this work, of course, we do not plan to be a logistics company, what we do should be called the perfect logistics system solution provider."

"It is worth mentioning that the company's initial vision is the last kilometer solution of urban logistics, from this idea, we have entered the field of intelligent robots, and then bring intelligent robots back to the logistics system, hoping that more and more people can use the logistics services of intelligent robots."

"Make the services of intelligent robots accessible to everyone." With the wireless remote control in her hand, Lisa flipped the slide to the penultimate page of her speech: "This is the company mission of Kirin Wings, which was proposed by the founder. It is also our goal for the future. ”

She spoke slowly, but with coherent ideas and substance, and for these attendees, her slides were a rare opportunity to get to know and get a glimpse of the unicorn wings.

So the audience was silent when she spoke, not even a cough, which of the participants was not concentrated, except for some resonance, everyone laughed and applauded, there was really no murmur at all.

"I'm Lisa, and welcome to you again."

Lisa flipped to the last slide of the last page, which was a few of her private photos, including her travel photos, and her work photos, but familiar with NMC, such as Meg and others, immediately found a photo of her and Alex at a party the year before last, she was lying on Qi Na's back, smiling brightly, and the confetti sprayed all over the sky, fluttering and sprinkling, just covered Qi Na's face.

They were all wondering: how much time did Lisa spend picking this photo, and what was she trying to express?

Lisa bowed slightly, walked to the backstage, and said, "Everyone, this is the end of my introduction, but don't worry, welcome Miss Min Rui, the chief engineer of Qilin Wings, to come up, she will bring you the release that you are more concerned about." ”

A slightly casual voice sounded from the other side, and a woman with a completely different appearance from Lisa walked up and said loudly, "OK, I'm going to face you now." ”

"It's not a good job, but someone doesn't want to come up, so I'll do it for me."

She's talking about Qina.

Regarding who will announce the release of the humanoid robot, everyone's unanimous opinion is Qi Na, but Qi Na resolutely refused, and played a leadership style at the critical moment, forcing Min Rui to come to power.

Min Rui naturally took the opportunity to tease him at this time.

"I came to Kirin Wings three months ago, and the longest time I've slept in a row is about two hours. Today, because of the new product launch, I got a slightly longer break. ”

At this time, everyone carefully observed Min Rui, who was obviously a woman and indeed a man's small flat head, even shorter than a flat head, and was simply bald. What is this person's role? Lead Engineer? Everyone was full of curiosity about her.

"In order to save time, most of the colleagues in the Qilin Wings have a bald haircut, or a long hair shawl, and I am also bald, oh, I may have grown some hair recently."

"The crystallization of our hard work is the Xuanwu IV and IV+ two models of robotic arms, this kind of robot in the industrial field has been endowed with a soul, and has been popularized and recognized on a large scale, which is enough to make up for our hard work."

"After the Xuanwu Type IV, our R&D team was split, and some of them continued to work on the improvement of the Type IV, while the other part of my colleagues, including me, entered a new product development cycle."

"For this new product, our internal development code is Suzaku Type I, and you should see that our code name is not creative, but it is a company with a mission of innovation."

Everyone in the audience laughed.

"At the beginning of the Suzaku I project, everyone was very hesitant, where is our direction?" Min Rui asked, as if to face all the participants.

The whole room was silent, and Min Rui looked around, as if hoping that someone would help her answer the question.

"Robots!" Someone responded boldly.

The audience burst into laughter.

"The mechanical arm is also a robot!" Min Rui reacted with a smile, she didn't stir up the atmosphere again, but quickly revealed the mystery.

"If there was a time shuttle, I would have been able to travel to this moment in the first place, and I would have known what I should do."

There was laughter from the audience again.

"Miss Min, is the time machine a stalk?" There was a voice from the back of the stage, so mechanical, so dull.

The voice was not loud, but the audience was shocked, "What's that?" Everyone looked at each other, full of curiosity.

"yes, a time machine is impossible, so what I just said was a joke." Min Rui replied to the voice seriously.

The lights on the stage suddenly went out, and the audience was in darkness, and the fear of darkness made the participants exclaim.

But no one explained, and the attendees instantly understood that this was part of the conference.

The light of the searchlight shone down from the top of the venue, and a circle of light fell in the corner of the stage.

A human-tall object shrouded in red silk slowly moved forward, as if it were the bride in the cave room.

This was the highlight of the day, and everyone understood, including Jenny and the others, who stood up, hoping to see what it was as soon as possible.

Xiaoxue hugged Dai Xiaolan excitedly, she was probably even more nervous than Min Rui on the stage.

The whole venue was in an instant uproar.

The object continued to move slowly, with some hesitation.

"Silk obstructs my vision," the mechanical voice echoed again.

Min Rui walked over, and under the bright light of the searchlight, she reached out and whispered, "I'll help you." ”

"Oh, thank you." It seems to be a life, knowing the way of politeness, knowing the way of advancing and retreating.

In order to completely cover its true face, Qi Na deliberately used a huge piece of silk to wrap it completely, which not only blocked its vision, but also interfered with its pace.

Suddenly, its steps stepped on the silk, sticking to each other, entwining, it staggered, shook off Min Rui's hand, and took a few quick steps forward before stabilizing its shape.

The heavy body, stepping on the stage table, clattered, sharp and piercing. But in front of the attendees, it was as if it was the first day.

"It's dangerous!" "I said a long time ago, don't use this silk, Alex doesn't hear me at all." ”

A robot with a height of 1.7 meters and a full metal structure appeared in front of people. The whole body is covered with a dull matte light of magnesium and aluminum alloy, the gaps between the joints are clearly visible, and the chest is a circle, shimmering with milky white light, as if it is the center of energy. Its face is covered with a layer of milky white silicone made of human faces. The cheeks are mapped by the red LED of the inside, and pink is pretty.

It appeared in front of the participants in a daze, and the audience was suffocated, silent, and everyone seemed to stop breathing, just staring at it blankly.

It looked around, looked at the participants expressionlessly, took a step back, the joints of its body creaked, turned its head and finally found Min Rui, and asked, "Miss Min, did I mess up?" ”

"Oh, it doesn't count!" Min Rui walked over.

It stretched out its hand to hold Min Rui, and said, "The next process, do you want to continue?" ”

"Of course." Min Rui asked it, "Do you have a problem?" ”
