Rongcheng.

Ariel Horner, who is from North America, has been in the city for four years, and he was attracted by the food, and when he came to China, he threatened to eat a different dish every day, and within three years, he would eat it all over the country.

As a result, three years have passed, and it is now the fourth year, and he is still in Rongcheng and has not come out......

People are stupid.

His deeds have also become a small fire in China, and some media reported that a foreign guy threatened to eat all the country's food in three years, and after three years, he is still "trapped" in the city where he started - Rongcheng.

In the years since Horner came to China, he has also felt the rapid development of this country, which is incredible from the perspective of a foreigner.

This is diametrically opposed to what he thought was a backward country when he first came, and even in many places, especially in terms of urban infrastructure and life, there is a breath of technological life everywhere.

For example, high-speed rail, mobile payment, urban logistics, etc., these things that are commonplace and even taken for granted by ordinary people in China are very advanced and advanced in the eyes of a foreigner.

Some of the big cities are more developed than even New York can match, such as the subway, which is outdated and still stuck in the last century.

Early this morning, Ariel Horner came to the big leap supermarket near Dujiangyan, a total of 4 floors of the supermarket area of about 3~40,000 square meters, and a three-story building is still under construction, with an area of about 10,000 square meters, if it is also used as a store, the entire supermarket will have about 50,000 square meters, which is undoubtedly the largest supermarket in Chengdu.

The supermarket was closed and upgraded some time ago, which still caused some inconvenience to local consumers, but it did not last long.

Today, the supermarket is reopened.

Those who pay attention to the news on the Internet know that this supermarket has now been included in the Blue Star technology system, and Ariel Horner is the first batch of people to learn the news on the Internet, this supermarket is one of the 40 commercial landing tests of LiFi technology, and it is also the only pilot in Chengdu.

It opened today, and Horner came to experience what it was like to experience this so-called "smart supermarket".

"Wow, there are so many people today......"

Horner stood at the gate of the supermarket, he was shooting vlogs, and he was the UP owner of BV Video Network and Bluestar Video, but he recently decided to give up the operation of BV Video Network and switch to the full operation of Bluestar Video.

Because, there are only more than 10,000 fans on the BV video website, and on the Blue Star Video, Horner, as a foreigner, has opened up his popularity in China with the goal of eating all over the country in three years, and now he has more than 5 million fans on the Blue Star Video.

It's no wonder they're giving up on running BV Video Network.

"First of all, download a special APP software for LiFi......" Horner spoke a slightly Sichuan-flavored Chinese, and his Chinese was not very fluent, and he would suddenly burst out of English when he was in a hurry.

"It's downloaded, waiting for installation."

Horner looked at the Azure-4 in his hand, installed it after a while, and then clicked on the APP to enter the application, and he could directly associate and authorize each other through social accounts such as WeChat or Blue Space, or you could register by email or the like.

"Oh Purple Dog!"

Horner chose to use his WeChat account for authorization, and after that, he entered the supermarket.

When it reopened today, the supermarket was very popular inside, and there were many people like Horner who came to visit.

After a moment of wandering inside, he looked at the phone screen again.

"Wow, and stereoscopic mode?"

Horner looked at the information on the phone screen and was very curious, and decisively switched from the two-dimensional mode to the three-dimensional mode, and the information on the screen showed the information inside the supermarket, which can be described as unobstructed.

The commodity information on the shelves and the live flow of people are all displayed on one screen, and you can clearly see where the flow of people is huge, where the flow of people is sparse, and many other useful information.

There are also some problems with the goods on the shelves, so that for the customer, if the goods he wants are out of stock at this time, there is no need to waste time running in vain, saving this part of the time cost.

The screen shows that the flow of people in the vegetables, fruits and meat section is huge, but the largest is the cashier area.

Horner immediately clicked on the app's built-in search box and typed in "hot pot delivery", and soon the AI assistant popped up a message to indicate whether he was looking for "hot pot base".

The artificial intelligence technology of this APP is supported by the Cote d'Azur, this kind of error correction is trivial, most AI can do it at present, but the real power is the speech recognition ability, and in the speech recognition, it can even "understand" the Chinese voice input that Ariel Horner's pronunciation is seriously out of tune.

However, Horner did not use voice input, only to see that after he clicked to confirm the "hot pot base", the APP immediately jumped to a new page information, just like map navigation, there is a clear route, and it is the most time-saving route to reach the destination calculated according to Horner's current location, the density of people in the supermarket and other factors.

But the actual situation is that the flow of the entire supermarket is disorderly, and it is never possible to predict the route of a customer in the next second, so this is actually a chaotic system, and it may be more than ten seconds later, the original route is not the best route, and at this time, the APP will optimize and change the route accordingly.

These operations are based on saving customer time as the first priority, of course, customers are also intellectual, but also autonomous, and there is no shortage of people like Horner, who can not follow the navigation of the APP.

This kind of indexing is not the accuracy of today's map navigation, especially indoors and how intelligent it is, but that's not the most surprising thing for Horner.

What really surprised him was that the path he walked on the screen, the images of the product shelves along the way were not decorations, but all of them could provide clear product information, and clicking on a specific product on the shelf would further display the content information of the product.

Language barrier, foreigners can't read the local language when looking at physical goods?

It doesn't matter, now this supermarket has solved this problem, foreigners like Horner can click on the relevant products through the shelf information in the APP, and a list of English information can be floated, which currently supports more than 20 languages.

Horner successfully arrived at his destination according to the route and saw that the shelves were full of various hot pot bases.

"It's so easy to use this APP, with it, I don't have to worry about buying the wrong hot pot base, and the user experience is full of points."

After Horner finished speaking, he made an embarrassed face at the camera, he couldn't read text messages before, and he bought the wrong flavor.

But with this APP, it is very friendly for a foreigner like him, because it can support language switching, and the physical object cannot be understood, and he can always understand his native language text through the APP, right?

Horner didn't really want to buy the hot pot base, and the purpose of his visit to the supermarket today was to experience this new technology application scenario.

The whole process is down, giving him the feeling of playing a game, a dazzling array of information, you can retrieve and view at will, the APP is like an open game world, and more than 95% of the content in it can be clicked to view.

Even,Click on some real-time corresponding passerby models can see the relevant information,The most basic information is male and female,But further information requires passers-by to open privacy authorization,The amount of information depends on the degree of privacy authorization of the object,And click on some passers-by's models,You can even see some of his social accounts that he put in his self-profile,Don't let that,You can also chat privately。

It's a bit of a show.

However, these contents are hidden, which needs to be explored by users themselves, because the positioning is a smart supermarket, and customers who come here are here to buy things, not to socialize, which is very clear to the operator.

Forcibly promoting and putting this content in front of the user will make the user feel that the product is bloated.

So, while the actual content is extremely rich, it looks minimalist, easy to use, and straight to the destination, so that the best user experience can be achieved.

Another benefit is to give some idle people who eat melons with pain to explore the fun, and they can find a lot of fresh elements when they are bored, which improves user stickiness and fun, so as to achieve the corresponding consideration.

This can also attract the interest of more users through the tap water effect.

"This app appeared three years earlier, and I wouldn't be so miserable in China."

Horner said to the camera with emotion, even though he has been in China for four years, except for some dish names that can be said very authentically and fluently, it is still difficult for him to communicate normally, and he is still confused when he reads text messages.

He recognized a lot of individual words, and the meaning that could be combined together was directly stupid when Ariel Horner saw it, and it felt like letting her decipher the secret when he understood the meaning...... I don't understand it at all.

There are no worries now, at least not when shopping at this supermarket.

Horner finally bought a lot of snacks and left the supermarket, for this shopping experience, he said very satisfied, he used to close his eyes, look at the pictures to buy and buy.

Today's shopping experience gave him a completely different feeling, and he bought every product because he understood what it was.

There is a lot of popularity in supermarkets, and there are also some market researchers in the industry.

On the third floor of the supermarket, two middle-aged men in suits and leather shoes were watching the behavior of customers shopping, and one of them suddenly said: "It can be seen that there are not many people who use it, and most people don't even know it, and it is still mainly based on traditional shopping methods." ”

Another man immediately said: "But this is the trend, Luo Sheng not only makes the new LiFi technology commercially implemented, but more importantly, it has mastered the huge offline entrance, and in a few years it will be a different situation, this is a new outlet." ”

His colleague added: "I bet that some overseas supermarket merchants must have seen the magic in this, especially those in regions like South Korea and Japan, and don't forget how many Chinese people go abroad every year to buy goods?" If I were a local merchant, I would definitely find the Cote d'Azur to connect them to LiFi technology and make the supermarket smarter, which is equivalent to taking both enterprise-level customers and users into their arms, tsk ......

You know, every holiday holiday, the number of domestic tourists traveling abroad is thousands, many people are taking advantage of the country to bring goods, overseas businesses in order to welcome tourists from China, all kinds of hard work, such as the 11th National Day, the island country also followed the celebration, discounts, promotions, the purpose is to attract customers from China.

But after all, the language barrier is a big problem, and after accessing LiFi, these offline problems can be perfectly solved.
