In the blink of an eye, the seven-day pre-sale period ended.

"During the entire pre-sale period, only 1,200 Lingxi translators and 10,000 pairs of Lingxi headphones were sold, and the total value of the goods only exceeded 10 million."

"If Feixun's merchants hadn't lowered their prices, maybe they could have risen a little more, but the ceiling was there, and it wouldn't have risen much."

Chen's father told Chen Shen about the results during the pre-sale period at dinner.

This result is undoubtedly extremely poor for the edges and corners, and it does not meet people's expectations at all.

You must know that the crimson storm model New Year's model cooperated with other manufacturers also opened global pre-sales a day ago.

As a result, in less than a day, the pre-sale value has exceeded an astonishing 800 million.

This phenomenon makes many people call the edges and corners in the future, as long as they concentrate on making toys, they can make money, and there is no need to study other things at all.

In contrast, the seven-day pre-sale value of translation equipment, which has only exceeded 10 million yuan and continues to decline, has no value at all.

However, for this achievement of the translator, Chen Shen's father and son and the sharp and corner of the senior management are acceptable.

Judging from the current results, even if the translation machine business loses money, it will not lose too much, and it is even possible to make a small profit, which in turn will give blood transfusion to the AI translation team.

At this time, Chen's mother brought out the remaining dishes from the kitchen, and the dishes on the table were full of color and fragrance, and the surroundings were suddenly shrouded in the fragrance of the dishes.

She casually turned off the TV in the living room, and there was an advertisement for Danshan Islands tourism on it, sat down at the dining table and said: "In my opinion, the Lingxi translation machine is selling so poorly, so don't increase production, now this batch of inventory is enough to sell for a long time, and the translation equipment will still be based on Lingxi headphones in the future." ”

Father Chen shook his head and said: "You don't understand this, for the translator, I didn't completely give up as the outside said, we have to have a big move next." ”

Mother Chen rolled her eyes, "You can't change the essence of this product if you make any big moves, its status in the translation equipment is like the previous big brother, and it will be eliminated after all." ”

"The best carrier after the translation equipment is the interpretation headset."

"With the precise pickup of human voices by the Lingxi headset, we only need to add a call mode to only recognize and pick up the user's voice, and the call quality will definitely be greatly improved."

"In this way, our interpreting headsets can differentiate themselves from other headsets on the market. For the same interpretation headset, the performance of the Lingxi headset is better than them in all aspects, and for the traditional wireless headset, the Lingxi headset has one more simultaneous interpretation function than them, and it also has its own characteristics in sound quality and call quality. ”

Chen's mother talked eloquently, she is not a complete housewife.

As she said, the sound quality of the Lingxi headphones is very good, after all, the headphones need to translate the voices of multiple people at the same time, and feed back the translated content to the user in layers.

If the sound quality is not clearly defined, when there are many people around who speak a foreign language, the translation voice heard by the user will be like a mixed paste, and it will be impossible to distinguish what is being said.

Father Chen picked up the rice bowl, took a few mouthfuls of food, and said: "What you said makes sense, from the perspective of technology and practicality, the translation machine is indeed a device that will be eliminated sooner or later, but the speed of elimination." ”

As he spoke, Father Chen turned his head to look at Chen Shen: "Ah Shen, do you think that with the current trend, how long can the translation machine exist on the market?" ”

Chen Shen's mouth kept talking, savoring his mother's long-lost cooking skills, and said: "In my opinion, there is no need for the third generation of the Lingxi translator, as long as we complete the translation between various Chinese languages, it will soon be replaced by the Lingxi headphones." ”

"How?" Chen's father stopped the chopsticks in his hand and listened carefully to his son's analysis.

"A very simple thing, if we complete the translation of the world's Chinese languages, the Germans wear our headphones, we can translate the language we hear into German, the French are the same, all the mainstream languages in the world can translate to each other, then the Lingxi headphones in the tourism market, is no longer limited to tourists." Chen Shen said casually while eating.

Father Chen is a smart man, and he immediately realized the meaning of Chen Shen's words!

"You mean that everybody in the travel industry is going to wear our headphones? Become our customer? ”

Chen's father's brain turned quickly, "At that time, in the major tourist cities, whether it is a business providing services or tourists enjoying services, both supply and demand sides will wear our headphones, so that we will become a communication platform between the two parties!" ”

The translation demand of the tourism service provider is a market that has not been deeply explored, and if it can achieve the point that Chen Shen said, then Angjiao is the only player in this market!

"That's right." Chen Shen nodded.

"But if you want to do this, you have to add a new language training subject for Bai Ze's translation."

Model training for AI translation requires the use of a large number of control corpora as the training dataset.

In China, companies like Feixuan use at least hundreds of millions of pairs of corpus in Chinese-English translation.

If you want to translate a small language, then you have to hire someone to make or collect the corpus, and the cost is calculated in tens of millions.

So if you want to achieve the global language communication in his mouth, the cost is a big obstacle.

Even if the data required for Bai Ze's training is much lower than that of other AI models, it is estimated that the cost of achieving mutual translation between the two languages will have to start at two or three million.

However, for Chen's father, this cost is not a problem.

"Plus!" Chen's father was very heroic, "What German and French, all are arranged!" ”

Seeing his father's excited appearance, Chen Shen just shook his head, filled himself a bowl of soup, and watched his mother's face begin to count down.

"Eat with peace of mind!" Mother Chen glanced impatiently at Father Chen, who was in excitement, and then set her eyes on his bowl.

Chen's father shuddered, his excited expression disappeared suddenly, and he silently picked up his rice bowl and ate honestly.

Chen Shen took a sip of the soup cooked by his mother: "Mom, the soup you made is really delicious!" ”

"Hmmm! It's still a good son! ”

After the pre-sale ended, the Lingxi translator and Lingxi headphones were quickly delivered to various consumers.

As expected, it has received a lot of praise, especially for the accuracy of the translation and the Lingxi headphones.

It's just that these praises don't help much for sales, and Lingxi Translator still looks half-dead......

This also made Feixuan and other companies temporarily relieved.
