Chapter 407: 740,000 pre-orders! Overseas best-selling bionic robotic arm!

Chen Senle tidied up his clothes and walked on the stage with vigorous steps.

was stared at by hundreds of pairs of eyes from the audience, especially the big boss who was still sitting not far away, looking at himself with a smile, and he was in a trance for no reason.

From the CEO of a private company valued at 200 million Chinese dollars to the head of the subsidiary business of Shanhai Group, it took less than two months.

Status seems to be declining, but status and wealth have risen dramatically.

When this conference is over, the practitioners of the bionic robotic arm around the world will remember his name and the company Shanhai Robot.

"Hello everyone, I am Chen Senle, CEO of Shanhai Robot Co., Ltd., and I am honored to stand here and share our latest product with you - MO bionic robotic arm."

Chen Senle smiled faintly and said unhurriedly.

The nervousness disappeared as soon as he said this, and he felt more and more at home on such an important occasion.

As soon as the picture on the big screen turned, a super realistic bionic arm appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

"Its skin is made of two-dimensional graphene-based elastic ultra-thin film stacking, which has stronger corrosion, impact and abrasion resistance, and we have directly abandoned the traditional simulated silicone in the selection of materials."

"Mainly because of this completely new material, microelectrode chips can be implanted to act as a neural interface for neurons to connect to electronic circuits."

As Chen Senle pressed the remote control, the skin of the robotic arm was like an onion, peeling off from the titanium alloy body, and it was clearly displayed on the projection screen.

A microelectrode array is embedded in the bottom layer of the bionic skin, which acts as a relay station for brain wave signals and electronic pulses, collecting indicators such as press pressure, temperature, and wind speed, and converting them into electronic signals for feedback to the user.

Consisting of 6x10 electrode arrays with a diameter of about 12 microns, they appear to be much larger than invasive brain-computer interface chips, each containing tens of thousands of electrodes and stimulation circuits to enhance contact surfaces and record biological signals.

"The core frame is made of high-strength carbon fiber and titanium memory metal, which is both strong and flexible, and has 32 sensors and two microelectrode biochips built-in, which can accurately capture the user's brainwave signals to the greatest extent and allow the robotic arm to act accordingly."

Chen Senle said eloquently, as the person in charge of the new product launch conference, he participated in the research and development and manufacturing of the bionic robotic arm 'MO', and he is very familiar with the technical principles and raw materials used in the product, which can be said to be open to the mouth.

He pressed the control button, and the mechanical arm on the big screen unfolded layer by layer, and the complex and tight parts covered the entire picture.

The audience couldn't help but be amazed!

I deeply perceive that this is a sophisticated, ultra-sci-fi mechanical auxiliary arm.

"The human hand, one of the most delicate organs in the world, has a large number of bones, joints and neuronal systems that allow them to use a variety of tools.

Therefore, to design a bionic manipulator, it is necessary to consider the number, size, weight, degree of freedom, grip force and fingertip force of fingers, so we have taken a more difficult road in the development direction of gear drive and linkage drive.

The combination of AI intelligence and gear drive allows users to make more subtle movements, such as playing games, carving, painting and other delicate operations with their mobile phones......"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked!

You must know that Festo in the beer country, Texas Instruments in the beautiful country and Covvi in the fog country have made robotic arms that can only do some simple grasping actions to meet the basic needs of daily life.

Engraving, painting?

I can't imagine what kind of sensor and linkage technology would be required!

If a painter loses his arm, it is equivalent to ruining his career, but according to Chen Senle, a painter with an amputated leg can recover 80% of his painting ability as long as he is equipped with a MO bionic robotic arm.

Is this possible?

Everyone looked at each other, their eyes flashing with disbelief and doubt.

"Equipped with a 2000 mAh battery, lightweight scenarios, it can be used continuously for 16 hours, and the end of the arm is equipped with a USB charging port, which can be charged to 80% in 15 minutes in fast charging mode."

In addition, it uses a deep neural network as a learning model to improve the operation ability of the robotic arm through imitation and self-learning.

First, pre-train to learn basic motor skills by observing human arms, palms, fingers, and elbows.

Then, in the reinforcement learning stage, it interacts with the surrounding environment and evaluates the quality of each action through reward signals, and then adjusts the network parameters to optimize the action strategy.

Eventually, when it is familiar with the user's operating habits, it will be able to follow the movements of the robotic arm by itself, and even let the robotic arm play games, play the piano and play the Rubik's Cube on its own.

We plan to equip the next generation of products with an ultra-high-resolution sensor and camera to perceive and grasp the details of objects and surroundings in real time.

These sensors are capable of providing precise force and position feedback, allowing the MO to achieve higher precision of operation......"

If it was a side dish in the front, now Chen Senle is talking about a big meal.

Let the Ai bionic robotic arm play the piano?

Isn't that proper cheating!

Some Secondary 2 researchers immediately thought of what would happen if a person who had lost both arms would install a pair of robotic arms.

By replacing human intelligence with programs, you can learn a lot of music and sports skills in a short period of time.

Master superb boxing and fighting skills!

Is this a simplified version of "flesh and blood, mechanical ascension"?

"MO's algorithm system, provided by Moss Ai, utilizes advanced motion planning and control algorithms to achieve high-speed, high-precision motion.

Through the kinematic and dynamic modeling of the robotic arm, combined with the optimization of machine learning algorithms, it can quickly and accurately calculate and execute complex motion trajectories.

At the same time, weight, size, gearbox transmission distance, stiffness, gearbox transmission ratio and gearbox transmission efficiency will also affect the kinetic energy and force presentation of the robotic arm......"

Chen Senle gushed endlessly, and when introducing the product function and manufacturing principle, it took more than an hour.

The assistant on the side hurriedly reminded him to speed up, and if he continued, the meeting would be seriously overtimed and would further affect the follow-up links.

Seeing this, Chen Senle collected his thoughts, showed an apologetic look, and actually chatted with himself.

"I'll announce the price of the standard version."

He reached into his trouser pocket and quietly pressed the controller.

The screen on the projection screen immediately switched, showing the words "58,000 Chinese dollars"!

"Whoa"!

The audience in the audience immediately became noisy, this price is beyond their imagination, it is too low!

It only reaches the price standard of 3%-5% of overseas competing companies!

Shanhai Group doesn't plan to make money this time?

"Of course, this is only the price of the standard version, we have cut the number of tactile skin systems and microelectrode chips, and the price of the high-end version of the MO is ......"

Chen Senle deliberately dragged the tail note, taking in everyone's expressions, and then pressed the controller.

The price of "198,000 Chinese dollars" makes countless people feel that it is too favorable!

Last year, there was a woman named Sarah in the country of fog who took the train home from work, sat at the station due to physical exhaustion, and accidentally fell off the platform when she was in a hurry to get off the train.

A train sped by, crushing one of her thighs, and when she got a prosthetic leg fitted afterwards, she couldn't afford the high cost.

On the one hand, the AI bionic robotic arm produced by Covvi is sold for as much as 250,000 fog coins, which is converted into 2.2 million yuan; On the other hand, the medical system in the country of fog does not have reimbursement regulations for the installation of prosthetic limbs, so it naturally refuses to bear this expense.

It can be seen that in 2017, the price of a set of mechanical prostheses was too high for middle-class families in European berry countries to afford.

However, at this time, Shanhai Group announced that the price of the standard version is 58,000, and the price of the high-end version is only 198,000!

After listening to Chen Senle's introduction, the audience generally believed that even if it rose tenfold, everyone would feel reasonable.

A reporter from Robotics Today seized the moment and raised his hand.

Chen Senle thought about it, and saw the boss bowing slightly, so he asked the staff to hand over the microphone.

"Mr. Chen, will the selling price be the same in the overseas market?"

This bearded white male goes straight to the point.

"58,000 and 198,000 are just the base selling price, if the amputation area is too large, the price will be adjusted accordingly, because the alloy materials and sensors used are increasing, I believe everyone can understand.

As for the international selling price, taking into account the factors of production capacity and the imbalance between supply and demand, the price standards implemented are 298,000 and 998,000 Chinese dollars respectively.

In addition, in order to improve the fit, we recommend that patients come to China in person to measure their body data on the spot, so as to obtain the most suitable bionic robotic arm for themselves. ”

Chen Senle said solemnly.

Good guy, the price has risen four or five times all of a sudden, but after thinking about it, Shanhai Group's long-term style of acting has always been like this, and I was instantly relieved.

"Before the Q&A session begins, we will first invite an outstanding student from HKUST - Shen Yiting, applause welcome!"

Chen Senle stepped aside and handed the stage to Shen Yiting.

Shen Yiting?

The name is not well-known in the field of intelligent robots, but it is very familiar to the ears of social media reporters.

It turned out to be her! This year's top student in Lucheng's science college entrance examination!

One reporter quickly remembered.

I saw a slim girl, wearing a sleeveless dress, standing on the stage vividly.

The right hand, which used to be empty, is now equipped with a bionic mechanical arm, which looks as slender as the left hand.

Obviously, Shanhai Robotics has done a customized process.

"Thank you, Mr. Chen, and thank you to my senior, Mr. Chen Heyu, I can regain a new right hand after eleven years, all thanks to the bionic technology of Shanhai Robot Company.

To this day, I still remember vividly that in the summer of 2006, when a paper airplane fell on a transformer, I was ignorant and reached out to pick it up, but I lost an arm forever......

When my senior told me that he was going to fit me a brand new right hand, frankly, I didn't have much hope.

The truest thought in my heart was that maybe it was just an ornament, but when I practiced calligraphy and guitar with MO, I finally understood that the senior is still the genius who wants to do the best......"

Shen Yiting said with tears in her eyes.

In the eleven years of missing her right hand, she learned to write, wear clothes, and ride a bicycle with her left hand.

"Smack! Smack! ”

Chen Heyu looked at the elementary school girl in front of him and took the lead in applauding!

The world is full of holes, and someone must stand up and mend them, and this time, he plans to make a little less.

Give young people in their prime, veterans who have retired from the battlefield, and ordinary people who have lost their hands in factories a chance to start over.

Fifteen minutes later, Shen Yiting walked off the stage, sat next to Chen Heyu, and shouted crisply: "Senior." ”

"Is the barbecue restaurant at the back door of HKUST still open?"

Chen Heyu smiled warmly and asked casually.

"Is Lao Liu barbecuing? Of course, his family has the best business, especially the same type of lamb kidney set for seniors, which is the best-selling. ”

Shen Yiting was generous and teased with a smile.

“…… I should have sued this in the first place! ”

Chen Heyu's face was embarrassed, and he secretly said in his heart, shaking his head helplessly.

"Senior, in fact, there are many people in urgent need of help in the university town of Lucheng, and college students like me are not alone."

Shen Yiting said softly, with a hint of expectation in her eyes.

"The senior shouted sweetly, do you want to get married from the senior?"

Chen Hayu quipped.

"You misunderstood, just give it a discount."

Shen Yiting said with a grin.

"For the sake of the schoolgirl's face, I asked Chen Senle to start the pilot in Lucheng and carry out a nationwide subsidy activity for college students with limb loss.

If you have excellent grades, it doesn't matter if it's free; There are also discounts ranging from 5 to 20% off. ”

Chen Heyu said slowly.

"Senior, are you serious?"

Shen Yiting looked surprised and opened her mouth wide.

The little girl is just a deception!

Chen Heyu smiled lightly, this is the operation strategy that he and Chen Senle have already set, whether there is Shen Yiting or not, it will be implemented.

What's more, the above will also participate in chasing a huge subsidy, which can be regarded as affirmation and support for Shanhai Group.

In addition to university students, there are also firefighters, soldiers, inspectors and food delivery workers.

After Chen Senle finished dealing with the reporter's questioning session, a white girl with a bewitching figure and a gorgeous appearance, wearing an OL suit, walked towards Chen Heyu with a twist.

"Hello Mr. Chen, I'm Erica, the manager of the equipment purchasing department at Johns Hopkins Hospital, can I delay you for a few minutes?"

Erica pursed her plump and seductive lips and ruffled her hair.

It's just that Chen Heyu didn't like this one at all, so he said indifferently: "Ms. Erica, if you want to discuss the purchase of the bionic robotic arm, you can contact CEO Chen Senle directly." ”

"Mr. Chen, they mainly want to communicate with you about the price, why don't we go out and talk slowly?"

Erica leaned forward in her chair and leaned forward, her neckline empty, revealing her fair and good figure.

“……”

Chen Heyu smiled and waved his hand, and the bodyguard on the side immediately came over and stopped Erica two meters away.

"In terms of price, if you have any questions, you should contact Mr. Chen, I am not responsible for specific matters, and I may disappoint you."

Chen Heyu said lightly, and before leaving, he waved to Shen Yiting and left the conference center in a car.

Chen Senle, who stayed behind, was surrounded by dealers and hospital delegations at home and abroad, and warmly complimented him.

"If I hadn't joined Shanhai Group, would I have the status I have today?"

Chen Sen was proud and enjoyed the joy of being touted, but in terms of pricing strategy, he adhered to the instructions of the big boss and did not give an inch!

In the end, the Cleveland clinic got a sales quota of 50,000 per year!

Mayo Clinic has a sales quota of 60,000 per year!

Johns Hopkins Hospital has a sales quota of 120,000 per year!

Bupa in the Fog Country has a sales quota of 80,000 per year!

Schoen Clinic in Beer Country has received a sales quota of 120,000 per year!

Ramsay Health Care in Kangaroo Nation has a sales quota of 80,000 per year!

……

These are basically private hospitals in Europe, Kangaroo Island and Beiberry Island, and public hospitals are still waiting, after all, if you want to install the MO bionic robotic arm, you have to come to Huaguo.

Although the cost has gone down, there is an additional time cost, and language communication is also a big problem.

Shanhai Robotics Company is only willing to give 5% profit margins, which makes them feel a headache.

I can only secretly decide to make up for the profits from other service items.

At the end of a press conference, Chen Senle received a total of 740,000 pre-orders for bionic robotic arms, with a contract amount of up to 48.4 billion US dollars, enough for the factory to work until the end of 2018.

Recruit production workers! Engineers! Expanding production capacity is imminent!

Some disabled people in Oberry were not angry but happy when they learned that Shanhai Group had launched an Ai robotic arm of 298,000 Chinese dollars!

It's so cheap!

Those bionic robotic arms in China that cost 200,000 US dollars and 300,000 euro bills, let them all see the tricks!

They have chosen to buy air tickets and take the nearest flight to Dahua, but they can't communicate if they can't speak Chinese?

Wouldn't it be solved by buying a Moss Ai glasses? Anyway, it's only 2999 US dollars, and you can skip the middleman, why not.

Even the hotels and rents around Shanghai have also risen!

This is something that Chen Heyu never expected.

When he was halfway through, He Tingbo's phone suddenly came in: "Boss, Cai Xinyi is here again." ”

It's quite persistent!

Chen Heyu was amused, and after a few seconds of silence, he replied softly: "Tell him to meet at the headquarters of Shanhai Microelectronics at two o'clock in the afternoon." ”

After Zhang Zhimou's "accidental" death, the Bay Semiconductor Company was torn apart, and the directors who held the equity wanted to swallow the Bay Semiconductor Company in one fell swoop.

There are many contradictions, and there are endless battles!

What is the meaning of just engaging in chip design, Shanhai Microelectronics uses successful experience to tell peers that as long as the IDM model has strength, it can still work.

You don't see, Intel, Sanxing and Wanji were all defeated in the hands of Shanhai Microelectronics.

If Lotus wants to gain a foothold in the chip manufacturing industry, it will either choose Sanxing or Shanhai Microelectronics.

But now, even Sanxing has to rely on the snort of Shanhai Microelectronics to survive, and needs to buy photoresist materials, chemical solvents and lithography machines banned by neon from Chen Heyu.

So why should they go so far?

It's just that Chen Heyu didn't want to see Cai Xinyi for a long time, but he made the other party confused for a while, and he didn't know how to deal with it at all.

If you refuse, then it's simple, and if you agree to cooperate, you don't need to shirk it again and again.

But in fact, Chen Heyu did plan to see him, but he was delayed by a series of things.

Cai Xinyi, who was nesting in the hotel, received He Tingbo's news, and immediately smiled, cleaned up his mood, and prepared to use his best state to persuade Chen Heyu.

The autumn wind in October is gusting, and the ice is cold.

Cai Xinyi boarded the luxury car, took the business team, and went straight to the headquarters of Shanhai Microelectronics. (End of chapter)
