"The mobile phone business is the core business of the Cote d'Azur, but the company's current business is too one-dimensional and actually very unhealthy." Luo Sheng said to the audience that product diversification and business diversification are imperative.

The smartphone industry is currently in a period of rapid growth, but there will always be a day when the market will be saturated, and maintaining the high profits of the Cote d'Azur requires new growth points to support the current high treatment of the company.

Li Chunsheng, who attended the meeting, said: "Boss, is the smart tablet benchmarked against Apple's iPad? ”

Hearing this, Luo Sheng shook his head and said: "No, if you want to benchmark against the backgammon point reader or Amazon's Kindle, and at the same time far surpass them." As for the main entertainment products of the iPad, our smart tablet is positioned as an educational auxiliary device, and the positioning group is different, even if it is benchmarked with a reader or Kindle, it does not make much sense, and our competitors are traditional extracurricular training institutions. ”

The current situation is that parents are almost heartbroken for their children's education, for fear that their children will lag behind others, and compete to send their children to participate in various tutoring classes and cram schools, the most common and common is that English cram schools have come out in a bunch, and some parents have started from the baby, kindergarten began to learn English, and wanted their children to win at the starting line, etc.

It can be seen how huge this market is.

And the object of this kind of education-assisted smart tablet that Luo Sheng wants to develop is not only useful for junior and senior high school students, but also for college students.

It's not that there is no need for human teachers with an electronic device, the biggest role of the smart tablet is to provide a good auxiliary platform for people who are willing to learn and improve themselves, teacher resources are limited, students can't ask their teachers or tutors all the time, in general, they are looking for materials by themselves, and a lot of time will be wasted during the period.

At the same time, the resources of high-end education are the most scarce, which is actually a monopoly of knowledge.

And for this pain point, smart tablets can provide the perfect solution.

Luo Sheng in the conference room said: "The smart tablet needs the support of big data and cloud computing technology, and at the same time, it is also necessary to introduce online translation software, in fact, the core is very simple, that is, to collect the world's top teaching data, and then provide consultation for users through artificial intelligence technology, so that Xiaolan becomes an excellent private teacher, ask Xiaolan if you don't understand, and then she will retrieve the information you want for you, Xiaolan is the most versatile teacher." ”

"Therefore, the premise is that we need a large number of teaching data resources, which is a very significant expenditure, and we need to fund as many universities as possible around the world, and then let them share teaching resources, text, pictures, public or private class videos, videos of famous teachers' deconstruction of knowledge points, and so on. Put this basket of super data in the cloud, users are a certain node, through a platform like big data + cloud computing, with Xiaolan as the link, the information required by users is distributed to each node. ”

"For example, if you learn English, just ask if you don't understand, Xiaolan will retrieve and accurately push the use of grammar you want to know, Xiaolan can answer for you, you can also let Xiaolan search for your own reference, etc., and if you want to know some cutting-edge academic questions, just ask Xiaolan, as long as we have an inclusion, we can immediately provide the most cutting-edge accurate information."

Everyone nodded silently, and Li Chunsheng muttered to himself: "It seems that big data is playing a role, but the real difficulty and pain point is how to make Xiaolan accurately push and structure the content he wants for thousands of users with different needs, which is too demanding for AI technology." ”

Luo Sheng said with a smile: "Okay, the technical problem is not too big a problem, that is, from intelligent perception to intelligent reasoning, our AI at this stage is in the intelligent perception stage, but it will soon be upgraded to the intelligent reasoning stage, which means that Xiaolan will have a more excellent 'understanding' ability to solve students' doubts, and behind her is the entire big data, which is richer and more comprehensive than the knowledge mastered by any single human being, thousands of times more than that, the only drawback is that it will not create." ”

Is this not a big technical problem?

Li Chunsheng and the others looked at each other, and they didn't know what to say for a while, so the big boss dared to say such things in such a relaxed voice.

How difficult it is to make an AI go from a purely mechanical response to a certain level of "understanding" is clear to researchers involved in the field of AI.

Everyone thinks that the AI technology of the Cote d'Azur is not owned by the company, but by Luo Sheng, but the Cote d'Azur can be used for free.

At this time, everyone realized that the big boss himself is a technical genius, but his light is covered by business and management, and he is actually a hidden technical boss in the company.

Thinking of this, Li Chunsheng and others couldn't help but be excited, if the technical problem is not a problem, then the smart tablet business for educational assistance is definitely another big hit product.

Time passed minute by minute, and after the meeting lasted for forty minutes, Luo Sheng made a decisive decision, and immediately looked at Li Chunsheng: "It's decided, we will announce our entry into the education industry with technology as the core driving force, and you will be responsible for the new business in this area." ”

Li Chunsheng was quite excited in his heart, but he did not lose his temper, but nodded seriously, and took over the task.

This is the first time he has led a large project alone since he joined the Cote d'Azur five years ago, and he is the top person in charge of this project, and he is also the person hand-picked by Luo Sheng, the key is that the prospects of the smart tablet business are extremely impressive.

Li Chunsheng is also thinking in his heart, if this project is a big success, maybe he can enter the board of directors of the Côte d'Azur company and become one of the real core members.

Luo Sheng retracted his gaze, looked around at everyone and said with a smile: "The smart tablet can actually be regarded as an enlarged version of the Azure series of mobile phones, a professional version, we can use the same AOS operating system and hardware technology, just move it over and change it, simply put, the touch screen is enlarged, the space is larger, and some entertainment attribute functions are cut, positioning it as a learning tool, rather than entertainment pastime." ”

Yao Jianhong hesitated for a moment and said: "Mr. Luo, will cutting the entertainment attribute function have an impact on sales, and the Xiaobawang learning machine can sell well, largely because of the accompanying entertainment function." ”

Luo Sheng said lightly: "That's called deceiving consumers and selling anxiety." I can't make money on the Cote d'Azur by such means, maybe the students will not be interested in this product because it can't play games and entertainment, but you seem to have made the wrong group, the people who pay are not students, but the majority of parents, so that parents know and understand that they will not worry about sales. ”

Yao Jianhong: "That's the same...... All right. ”

Luo Sheng added: "The technical problems have been completed by the accumulation of Azure more than 90%, so the real time-consuming time from the launch of this product is the integration of the supply chain, which can be solved in about half a year, that is to say, next year in 2010, we will launch the educational aid tool smart tablet in the summer, which is the second new blockbuster electronic product released by me on the Côte d'Azur." ”

The company's senior management knows that this is just a part of Luo Sheng's huge layout on the Cote d'Azur, and the company has now changed its slogan, from the very beginning of the simple "change the world", to now put forward a more specific slogan goal - to build a smart world where everything is connected.
