The size of Ai Ying Town is large, and it is not only a place to work, but also a place to live.

In Wu Zhou's vision, it is a town with all kinds of things.

There will be a childcare center, kindergarten, elementary school, junior high school, and even high school.

There will also be a comprehensive hospital, as well as some small clinics, dentist clinics, Chinese medicine physiotherapy and so on.

As for other supporting facilities, such as barber shops, beauty shops, convenience stores, supermarkets, etc., Wu Zhou will also choose some supermarkets with a good reputation to settle in.

It's not realistic to make it yourself, it's too miscellaneous.

Moreover, the salary of Wuzhou's regular employees is so high, it is really done, the input cost is too large, and many industries are not familiar with it, starting from 0, you have to explore the supply chain, obviously, this is completely unnecessary.

Of course, this idea, Wu Zhou has not mentioned it to anyone for the time being, it is too exaggerated.

One step at a time.

In March, the small household appliance brand and little helper that had been doing it a year ago finally began to gradually exert its strength.

The main products, hair dryers and vacuum cleaners, have been shipped abroad in January.

But after all, it's a new brand, a new product, and the price is too high, hair dryers, from $300, vacuum cleaners, from $500.

In addition, the sales channels are only online, and foreign e-commerce is still much behind compared with domestic ones.

Most people prefer to shop offline, and apparently the little helper has not yet had time to develop offline channels abroad.

Therefore, in January, through the Amazon platform, the total sales volume only sold a total of 1w copies, which is more than 4 million dollars, and the sales are actually okay, but compared to the Aiying Group, it is almost negligible.

Of course, although the little helper is Wu Zhou's, not Aiying Group's, there is no possibility of merging it into Aiying Group's financial data.

In February, a total of 18,000 hair dryers were sold, plus 13,000 vacuum cleaners, totaling about $1.2kw.

Since March, with the intensification of foreign masks, people's consumption habits have gradually shifted from offline to online.

This is also the reason why the stock price of the Amazon platform has soared during this time.

And the products of the little helper, although they are not directly useful products such as masks.

But it also enjoyed the dividends of the surge in traffic.

In the middle of March, the shipments of hair dryers soared to 37,000 again, and the sales of vacuum cleaners were 55,000.

Not surprisingly, the sales of 100,000+ in a single month were stable in March.

This sales volume is already in the top 1 of the sub-categories that can be ranked on the Amazon platform.

Of course, this is far from the upper limit of sales, at least at the moment, Wu Zhou has not actually spent much time and energy to promote this product.

The previous domestic affairs, as well as the pharmaceutical industry, occupied most of Wu Zhou's time and energy.

And I noticed this at this time, also because of the initial integration of its medical company.

Wu Zhou had more new ideas in his mind, and he needed the cooperation of the R&D department on the side of the little helper, so he noticed the recent performance.

The main directions of ideas are: the issue of masks,

The mask virus floats in the air because it is relatively small, lightweight, and easily sticks to the dust or aerosols in the air to float in the air.

It easily floats in the air with the wind, which is why it is becoming more and more difficult to prevent the mask virus.

Wu Zhou thought of sucking out the virus in the air through a high-suction fan system, of course, this does not refer to the outdoors, but to the indoor environment, and install such equipment at the top position.

Secondly, Wu Zhou's medical company is also making high-sensitivity mask virus detection devices.

Can the two be combined?

For example, in a scene, there are mask virus patients who enter a relatively confined space, and then the high-suction fan adsorbs as much of the mask virus in the air as possible to the virus detection device inside the fan.

Wouldn't it be possible to detect the virus in advance?

If this kind of equipment is laid in a large area of airports, shopping malls, bus equipment, elevators, and a large public place, won't it be possible to detect the virus in the first place?

Of course, there is a certain premise here, the sensitivity of this system must be high enough, and the virus content in the air is still very low.

For example, conventional detection methods require about 200 to 500 copies of the virus per milliliter to detect.

And this air detection scheme may only end up with a concentration of 10-20, or even less.

The concentration is well below the detection requirements.

Wu Zhou initially thought of two solutions, one is to increase sensitization and improve the sensitivity of the detection device.

The other is equipment modification, for example, to reduce the size of the adsorption device, so that the virus is more concentrated, so as to increase the number of viruses per unit volume in disguise, this requires a large enough suction, otherwise, the air exchange efficiency is not high, which is not of much significance.

The biggest advantage of this equipment is that it can be fully integrated and automated, and the reagent storage, fluid control, and biomolecule detection are concentrated in the chip and supporting instruments, without manual intervention, saving time and effort, and can be detected in advance.

Moreover, in addition to detecting the virus, this device will also reduce the viral load of the indoor air by sucking out a large amount of indoor air.

A low-virus environment can greatly reduce the transmission efficiency and reduce the probability of severe disease after infection.

The second one, Wu Zhou wants to make a new fan, confined air, the carbon dioxide content in the air will continue to increase, making people drowsy, so the company, the R&D department, must have a steady stream of clean fresh air into it.

Wu Zhou's Aiying Town plan will require so many housing, R&D centers, hospitals, schools, and so on.

There's nothing technical about this thing, so let's put it simply.

In fact, it is to supply air, filter and purify the outdoor air, and then send it into a closed room. Coupled with an exhaust device, indoor air convection can be achieved.

Of course, this is the simplest, and the least tech-savvy.

You can add some temperature control devices, if the indoor temperature is low, then heat, and if the temperature is high, then refrigerate, try to keep the temperature constant.

The related technology is ready-made, and it doesn't cost a lot of money.

The third is to increase the function of the oxygen generator, of course, this is not just needed, the normal fresh air function has met the needs of the human body, and for a long time in the environment with higher oxygen content, the result may be, the old is faster.

However, this refers to people who do not normally need a negative oxygen environment for a long time.

And what about the short-term situation, as well as some special groups?

When you are so busy that you are drowsy, have a headache, or after strenuous exercise, or after studying very tired.

Or pregnancy? Or some respiratory diseases and so on.

From these people, a slightly higher oxygen concentration may be more beneficial than disadvantageous.

Prepare an oxygen concentrator at home and wear it on your nose, and the other is that you don't need to bring anything, and you can walk around the room at will.

It's a completely different experience.

It just so happens that the medical company under Wu Zhou has the related equipment of the oxygen concentrator.

The last product is the air disinfection machine, whether it is a fan changer or a new fan, it needs to be drilled, glass drilling, or wall drilling.

Some places may not fit, others may not want to.

Then you can use the air disinfection machine, which is an air purifier superimposed with a triple disinfection device, ultraviolet UV disinfection, negative oxygen ion purification, and anion disinfection.

After all, as long as you can reduce the viral load in the air, you can reduce transmission and reduce the symptoms of infection.
