"Xiaoliang, what kind of partner do you want to find?" Luo Xiyun asked him seriously.
Liang Rubo thought seriously for a few minutes and then said: "Sister-in-law, please introduce me to someone who is knowledgeable, polite, diligent and thrifty. It doesn't matter what the family situation is. The most important thing is that the character is good. As for age,
Just about the same as me. If it’s too big, if it’s too small, I can’t speak..."
When Luo Xiyun heard that Liang Rubo's condition was really simple, but still difficult to find, she finally said: "I will help you keep an eye on it."
"Okay!" Liang Rubo was happy. He said, "Yi Ming told me that he has been engaged in the past two years. Oh, you made me anxious."
"Why are you so anxious?" Xia Zekai said to him.
Not to mention that he is so successful, there are still a lot of people at his age who are not married!
Liang Rubo smiled and said: "Brother Xia, you already have five children, and Yiming is about to get engaged. It will be a matter of time before we get married and have children. When the time comes, I will be the only one left at the party."
It’s so embarrassing to be single.”
"Oh, my heart aches when I think about this!"
Seeing Liang Rubo clutching his chest with a painful expression on his face, several people burst out laughing.
Zhou Yinghong and Xia Weicheng saw Zhang Yiming and Liang Rubo coming over. The two elders were already very familiar with the two young men. Zhou Yinghong greeted: "Xiao Zhang, Xiao Liang, you are here. Come in quickly and sit down. I'll go
Cut some fruit for you."
"Aunt Zhou, you don't have to work anymore. We just thought that you would go back soon, so while we are not busy today, come over and sit." Liang Rubo said.
Zhang Yiming also nodded: "I just promised Yatou and Tongtong yesterday to buy toys for them, and the hooks and lids have been poked. If I can't do it, I will turn into a puppy, haha!"
As he spoke, Zhang Yiming couldn't help but laugh.
Hearing what he said, Xia Zekai and his family all laughed.
Tongtong was holding a humanoid robot in her hand, and she was talking to the robot: "Robot, hello!"
"Hello, little sister!" came the mechanical voice of the robot in the movie, and one person and one device began to interact.
After Xia Zekai saw this thing, he suddenly felt very familiar.
For example, later: "Xiaodu Xiaodu, please play me a nice song!"
Or it’s from Xiaomi: “Classmate Xiaoai, you can bark like a puppy!”
In his memory, Xia Zekai bought this thing for his daughter who was in high school, but the two sisters had long lost interest in it at that time.
He also asked specifically: "Yiming, where did you buy this thing?"
"At the import store, it seems to be imported from abroad. It is not easy to buy in China, so I also spent a lot of effort." Zhang Yiming said.
Xia Zekai thought that this should be the case. Now, whether it is Xiaomi, which has only been established for two years, or Baidu, which has already been listed in the United States, they have not yet touched on AI intelligent interaction, and naturally they have not touched on the hardware related to AI virtual intelligence.
equipment.
Thinking of this, Xia Zekai thought about it in his heart, and even got a little excited.
Now Xiaomi and Baidu have not started to engage in this area. The thing Zhang Yiming just bought for his daughter is not as good as Xiaoai classmates or Xiaodu. It simply sets a few questions, and then has music, children
Stories, etc., are still early-stage smart products.
"Yi Ming, Ru Bo, I just thought of an idea." Xia Zekai said.
Zhang Yiming and Liang Rubo were shocked. Liang Rubo asked: "Brother Xia, what have you noticed? Please tell me quickly."
Xia Zekai didn't hide it either. He was in a blind spot in terms of 'intelligence'. He didn't have the technology. All he had were memory fragments from the past.
The next moment, Xia Zekai said: "I just saw this toy that Yiming bought. I thought of something. Let me tell you what I think. See if it can be realized. If it can be done, this thing should be
There’s a lot to be done.”
Later, Xia Zekai described the functions of ‘Xiaodu’ and ‘Xiaoai’ in his memory.
For a ‘technical layman’ like Xia Zekai, this thing seems quite difficult to do.
But for Zhang Yiming and Liang Rubo, two Internet technology experts, they really don't find this thing difficult to do.
"Brother Xia, I thought about it carefully. The idea you just mentioned is feasible and there is no problem at all. However, manufacturing the hardware equipment is a bit troublesome."
"It would be a bit uneconomical for us to build the factory ourselves!" Zhang Yiming was also a little moved.
He had other ideas in mind, but before he could say them out, Liang Rubo followed up and said: "This thing is really not difficult. We can first develop the product design ideas and related software programs, and then find the OEM factory to produce them."
We just need to do a good job in product quality control, so we can ensure greater profits..."
Speaking of this, Liang Rubo paused for a moment, and then said: "Brother Xia, Yiming, I think this thing is just a time difference, so that we can get it to the market before others can react. Later, someone will imitate it."
, we can choose to continue to upgrade to the second and third generations, there is no big technical problem."
"In addition to updating, we can also treat it as a one-time deal and resell it while it's hot and make a lot of money."
"Rubo, you have seen clearly, you are right!" Xia Zekai agreed with Liang Rubo's idea.
He remembered that Xiaodu came out two years earlier than Xiao Ai, but he didn't know exactly which year Xiaodu came out. However, with the successful establishment of the 3G network, the popularity rate is getting higher and higher.
As the application scenarios of smartphones become more and more widespread, the launch of these intelligent products is also very fast.
He asked: "Should we do it? Make some money and spend it."
"Okay, Brother Xia, I believe your vision is correct. Let's do this. I will arrange for someone to register a company. Let's set up the framework first. Lao Liang's Yixing here and my 'Today's Toutiao'
Let's allocate some technical talents to each side. Brother Xia, you can allocate some management talents to your side, no problem." Zhang Yiming said.
He said: "Now is the time for me to employ people. I don't even have enough management talents myself. How about you, Lao Liang, provide more people..."
"That's not possible. Yixing is still continuing to expand its scale. I'm planning a global layout, but there are so many people who can't be distinguished." Liang Rubo disagreed with anything he said.
But in fact, Zhang Yiming, Liang Rubo, and even Xia Zekai knew why the distribution was like this!
Xia Zekai was also straightforward. He said, "Okay, I'll do it myself."
Luo Xiyun said: "How much money you plan to raise, I will also raise some to make some money to spend, otherwise 'Kaiyun Investment' will be unable to uncover the truth again."
Hearing what Luo Xiyun said, Zhang Yiming and Liang Rubo agreed without saying a word.
The ideas and creativity all come from Xia Zekai. It is already a huge advantage for him to play with the two of him.
The remaining research and development is not necessarily difficult.
For them, creativity in their thinking is priceless!
Liang Rubo took the initiative and said: "Brother Xia, sister-in-law, each of our four parties will invest 10 million, and each party will hold 25% of the shares. What do you think?"
"If it is not enough in the later stage, we will negotiate to increase the capital, and then the shares will be distributed according to the proportion of capital investment." Liang Rubo said.
There’s only so much he can offer now, otherwise he wouldn’t have given up on the private placement during the internal capital increase in the A round of ‘Today’s Toutiao’.
Zhang Yiming also nodded: "How about we do it this way? Let's scrape together 40 million in the early stage. I believe it will be enough."
“It’s really not enough in the later stage, let’s raise money in another stage!”
"If you want to sell it, you can sell it online, or you can sell it in Brother Xia's 'Jingtong Baby' direct-operated store. Anyway, Brother Xia's 'Jingtong Baby' direct-operated store channel is almost complete, and we will also pay.
." Zhang Yiming thought further.
Xia Zekai didn't even expect this.
He just casually proposed an idea, but within half an hour, the few of them even solved the problem of sales channels.
Xia Zekai thought, you are really smart.
This matter is really done like this. It is creative and has ideas. In the early stage, it was reverse research and development along the lines of ideas. Zhang Yiming and Liang Rubo did not think that the technical problems involved were very difficult to solve. They believed in them.
The technical staff can solve these problems.
As for the OEM problem, it is not difficult to deal with. Many electronics factories are OEMing mobile phones, so it is even easier to OEM their electronic products.
Everything is OK!
Xia Zekai said: "We must have some drinks at noon today to celebrate."
Hearing what Xia Zekai said, Zhang Yiming and Liang Rubo did not object. They had planned to have a drink with Brother Xia.
But who knew that in just a few sentences, a new product would be created.
As you can imagine, as long as they succeed in research and development, put it on the market and catch the market off guard, they will definitely make money by then.
Maybe you can even make a lot of money.
"I have another idea. In addition to conversational communication, entertainment, and intelligent feedback, our product can also be used as a learning machine and content carrier. You can't develop a product just for fun!
"Xia Zekai specially reminded me.
He said: "For example, we can let our children learn English, Mandarin, poetry and ancient Chinese words, etc."
"We can also design both those with screens and those without screens. We can also dress the designed products in cute cartoon animal clothes, and then buy and sell cute peripherals."
Listening to Xia Zekai's endless talk, whether it was Luo Xiyun, Zhang Yiming or Liang Rubo, they always felt that Xia Zekai who was talking had bad intentions.
‘A learning machine that can talk’, oh my god, this gimmick has come out.
What's even more shameless is that he actually wants to sell peripheral products.
Once it is put on the market, as long as it can really achieve these functions, it will be sold like crazy.
"If you think about it, what other functions can it achieve?" Xia Zekai also urged his wife, Liang Rubo and Zhang Yiming to think more.
I didn't go out at noon, so I ate at Xia Zekai's place. Luo Xiyun cooked the food herself. Her cooking skills were not bad. Zhang Yiming and Liang Rubo were both envious of this.
I feel that Xia Zekai’s life is really worth it!
"Brother Xia, what would you like to name our product?" Liang Rubo asked.
Xia Zekai thought for a moment and said, "What do you think of 'Classmate Xiao Ai'? Or 'Classmate Xiao Ming' is also fine."
I will update these today, I will write more tomorrow!
