Chapter 53: Wow Wow Robot

The R&D team was formed.

For the products to be developed, as the boss Chen Jin, he also told Su Youjie, Zhou Kun and others.

He wants to be a robot vacuum.

And put forward several specific requirements for this sweeping robot:

1. The cleaning ability of the dirty floor reaches 99.9%.

Second, the intelligent cleaning mode is adopted, and the cleaning efficiency is increased by more than 50% compared with other sweeping robots, saving time and electricity.

3. In terms of the production cost of a single unit, it is controlled below 1500 yuan.

Not only that, Chen Jin also took out dozens of his hand-drawn design drawings of sweeping robots to explain to them.

Even the detailed design of each subsystem, the specific working principle, and the algorithm of the intelligent cleaning program are involved.

The explanation is very detailed, and the design scheme is mature and reasonable.

The feasibility of the solution is very high!

Su Youjie, Zhou Kun and the others all looked at Chen Jin in surprise.

The boss in front of him is not only as simple as having money, but his mechanical design ability is by no means weaker than any of them.

Their professional and expert performance made them put away their inner contempt and dare not underestimate the boss in front of them.

Of course, they also came up with their ideas:

"Mr. Chen, the best sweeping robot on the market at present is iRobot in country M, which can clean up 98.8% of the floor dirt, and it is very difficult to go up, the 99.9% dirt removal index you set, is it a bit too high?" Wu Lei said.

"Yes, 99.9%, we humans can't clean the floor to such a clean degree, and it also puts forward high requirements for the working ability of robots, which can easily lead to high marginal costs, should we set the index a little lower, such as 99%."

Zhang Zhiwei helped his glasses with thick glasses at the bottom of the wine bottle and said.

"No, this indicator will not be lowered."

Chen Jin shook his head: "'The cleanest sweeper' is the core competitiveness of our sweeping robot, and other indicators can be relaxed, this indicator cannot be reduced!" ”

He spat out a classic sentence: "We must let our users experience the beauty brought by technology." ”

"I understand, Mr. Chen."

Wu Lei, Zhang Zhiwei and others nodded one after another.

Captain Su Youjie studied the design drawings in his hand, sometimes nodding contemplatively, sometimes shaking his head slightly.

He put down the drawings, raised his head and thought about it and said: "Mr. Chen, there is no problem with the design you gave, the sweeping robot can work normally, but the shape of the robot is a humanoid robot, not a traditional disc type, which brings the problem of complex structure and complex control program, the manufacturing cost of mechanical movable joints is high, plus the high-definition camera system of the robot head, the manufacturing cost of this sweeping robot will not be less than 2000." ”

"So, the production cost you said is controlled below 1500, which is a bit unrealistic."

Su Youjie has been playing with robots for more than ten years, and he has an ordinary family background, and he is extremely sensitive to cost, and he can see the problems in this design plan at a glance.

That's the high cost!

In general, the manufacturing cost of all humanoid robots is high, so it is rare to see the existence of humanoid robots in the civilian market.

"More than two thousand?"

Chen Jin smiled and suddenly asked: "If the sales of my sweeping robot reach more than 1 million units, can the cost be reduced to around 1500?" ”

Million?

Su Youjie was stunned for a moment, nodded and said: "If it is put into production in large quantities, the cost will be reduced by more than 20%, which should be no problem, but ......"

One million units, it is the best rice sweeping robot sold on the market now, priced at 1699 yuan, more than a year after the launch of the market, domestic sales have exceeded 1 million units, which is already a hit.

After all, country Z has just become rich in recent years,And compared with TV、Refrigerator、Washing machine、Air conditioner and other white goods,Sweeping robots are not a necessary rigid need,Moreover, there are generally personnel to clean home hygiene,Unless the family conditions are particularly good,Otherwise, it is generally rare to think of buying sweeping robots。

"Non-essential light luxury" - this is the awkward positioning of the current sweeping robot.

The sweeping robot of Xinghai Company,It is still in the design drawing stage,It has not yet been developed,Even the manufacturing cost of a single unit is expected to be more than 1500,After various channels,I don't know how high the market price will be。

The high selling price will definitely lead to poor sales.

Su Youjie suggested: "Mr. Chen, I think it is better for the company to develop traditional styles of sweeping robots." ”

Zhou Kun next to him also nodded: "Mr. Chen, what Youjie said makes sense, when we do product research and development, the first thing we should consider is the market environment, and come up with the products that the market needs most." ”

"No, no, no~"

Chen Jin waved his hand: "Really good products can create a big market by themselves, and only mediocre products will cater to the market and cause homogeneous competition." Our Xinghai company is a different company, we specialize in different products, homogeneous competition, Xinghai company will never participate in it. ”

"Your suggestion is reasonable, but my plan will not be adjusted, you will develop it according to my plan, unify your ideas, concentrate your efforts, and first develop the sweeping robot I want!"

Chen Jin said in an undoubted tone, the sweeping robot scheme he brought was designed by artificial intelligence Alice, and made a lot of reference to the design of a sweeping robot called "WAWA-1" (yes, it is the last model of the robot Wawa) in the history of Helfa Planet, with a similarity of more than 95%.

As the first humanoid household robot in the history of Helfa Planet, the "WAWA-1" robot was introduced to the market and quickly sold more than 90 million units worldwide, which was a great success.

The road to success is similar, there are ready-made, successful products in front of the reference, Chen Jin believes that he can definitely succeed!

Therefore, he is reluctant to listen to some voices that are not very optimistic, refuting, and declining.

"Okay~"

Su Youjie and Zhou Kun glanced at each other, and they all retracted their thoughts in their hearts.

Their current role is to work for the boss "employees", no longer the previous free team, many design ideas and decisions, can only be based on the boss's ideas, they only need to work hard, the boss's ideas to realize.

"Well, I think this robot designed by Mr. Chen is very good, it looks so cute, stupid and cute, if there is really such a sweeping robot on the market, I will definitely buy one!"

The girl Xiao Xiao stared at the design in front of her, her hands on her cheeks, and her lips pouted, her eyes full of little stars.

"Yes, I think so too, this robot designed by Mr. Chen is really cute, I really want to build it immediately."

The girl Yang Qiuying nodded and said, she also liked this design.

Generally speaking, in most families, housewives are the majority of housewives who are responsible for cleaning, and women are mostly sensual creatures, who do not have much resistance to those cute, cute, and delicate items, and are often willing to buy them at a premium.

So thinking of this, the eyes of Su Youjie, Zhou Kun and others lit up again.

"Mr. Chen, did you name this robot? I think it deserves a name. Xiao Xiao asked.

"Of course!"

Chen Jin nodded and smiled: "Its name is 'Wow Wow', and it is a Wow Wow Robot." ”

Wow wow?

This......

Everyone looked at each other, this name is very ordinary, and it really doesn't matter.

"Don't worry, as for why it's called 'Wow Wow', in the future, you will know why I took this name."

Chen Jin's face was mysterious, and he deliberately sold a pass.
