Chapter 1260 The advance payment has exceeded 60 million
"Zekai, have you read the news? The incident involving classmate Xiao Ai was quite serious." Luo Xiyun was folding clothes when she turned to ask her husband.
Xia Zekai looked away from the third child, Qingyu, and said, "Are you talking about the slander against the counterfeiters?"
Seeing his wife nodding, Xia Zekai said nonchalantly: "He's just a clown. I believe Zhang Xu can handle this matter well, so there's no need for me to step in anymore."
"Hey, Zekai, your style is getting better and better now." Luo Xiyun said with a smile.
A smile appeared on the corner of Xia Zekai's mouth: "Originally, along the way, Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. has been getting a lot of attention and slander. Is it possible that I have to deal with it one by one?"
"Xiaoai Technology has just started. The pre-sale limit for the first generation of Xiaoai classmates is 400,000. Do you think there are no jealous people?" Xia Zekai said lightly.
He really doesn't care about the fleas.
But he was very interested in one thing and said: "Daughter-in-law, do you think 'Xiao Ai Classmate' can really cure autism?"
Without even thinking about it, Luo Xiyun shook his head and said: "How is it possible? Xiao Ai is just a smart AI speaker. It is not a medicine or a cure. If you really use it as an 'artifact' to promote it, something will go wrong."
."
Xia Zekai understood the meaning of his wife's words and squinted his eyes and said: "I don't want to rely on it for publicity. I am mainly thinking that if Xiao Ai has a certain effect on 'autism', we can donate a batch to the orphanage.
I'm sure there are a lot of kids over there who need it."
Hearing what he said, Luo Xiyun stopped what she was doing. She was stunned for a while and said, "This is okay, Zekai, you finally said something humane."
"Go away, you deserve a beating!" Xia Zekai raised his hand and was about to stand up. When Luo Xiyun saw it, he glared at him: "What do you want to do in broad daylight?"
"I don't want to fuck you either!" Xia Zekai's bad-mouthed habit relapsed and he just said it casually.
Luo Xiyun was so angry that he stopped arranging his clothes and ran to Xia Zekai with a pile of messy clothes. He raised his hands and smashed the clothes in his arms on Xia Zekai: "I think you are free, please tidy it up for me."
Take the clothes."
"..." Xia Zekai pinched his nose, thinking that he was out of luck now.
In fact, just as Xia Zekai thought, Zhang Xu was very efficient in doing things.
A week after 'I am an anti-counterfeiter' verbally criticized 'Xiao Ai's classmates for cheating' on the Internet, seeing the matter brewing and fermenting to its peak, Zhang Xu then officially called the police in the name of Xiao Ai Technology Co., Ltd.
I made a phone call and filed an appeal against 'I am a faker'.
Then a press conference was held to specifically clarify the matter and explain the matter of calling the police and appealing. For a time, there was much less heated discussion about this matter in the Internet world.
Many people saw that "Xiao Ai Technology" was not a joke, and they actually called the police. Some guys who were used to talking loudly no longer dared to talk nonsense.
Coincidentally, after Zhu Xinhai's incident, among the 10 free quotas randomly selected every day, another person with a similar situation to Zhu Youkang was selected for this free quota. His daughter is also a little autistic.
symptom.
After this little girl got the "Xiao Ai Classmate" given to her by her parents, she gradually started to communicate with Xiao Ai Classmate, but she did not change as quickly as Zhu Youkang did.
But even so, in the words of her parents, there is a smile on the girl's face, and she is no longer as cold as before. The couple can talk to the girl a few more words, which is worth it.
After this comment and several videos from different days were posted, it became a hot search topic and was seen by more people.
At this time, no one opened their mouths and they were treated as trustees.
Although some people are still skeptical, more parents with similar situations at home struggled for a while and decided to pay 100 yuan in advance and place an order with the mentality of giving it a try.
After all, 599 yuan a piece of "Xiao Ai Classmate" is not outrageously expensive.
Many parents have an account in their minds. The 599 Xiaoai classmate is much cheaper than the medicines and health care products that their own children take. If this thing really has some effect, they all feel that the money is well spent.
After all, I took so much money on medicines and health care products, and spent a lot of money on psychological counseling, but I didn't see much change in my child.
Some people have also rationally analyzed the root cause of the effectiveness of "Xiao Ai Classmate" on patients with autism on the Internet.
According to this enthusiastic netizen, the main reason why ‘Little Love Classmates’ has a miraculous effect on autistic patients is that it opens up the desire for communication in autistic children.
Most patients with autism are immersed in their own world, unwilling to make friends, unable to talk to their classmates, and even rarely chat with their parents. They refuse to accept information from the outside world and lack a bridge to communicate with the outside world.
'Classmate Xiaoai' is not a human being, but it has the simple conversational logic and response ability of a human being. It is also very interesting and can do things that many people cannot do. This provides Zhu Youkang and another little girl with a
Effective channels.
After establishing this channel, whether it was Zhu Youkang or another little girl, they were all willing to try to contact the outside world.
After getting this good start, the rest will fall into place.
After reading this analysis report, most netizens agreed with this enthusiastic netizen's rational analysis. They felt that this netizen was right to the point.
And this also prompted more people to want to buy a "Xiao Ai Classmate" as a gift for their children.
Even if my children are fine, I still want to buy one for them. They can play with it as a way to practice their eloquence!
Some netizens even bought them as gifts for themselves.
Suddenly, the pre-sale sales of ‘Xiao Ai Classmate’, which was still on pre-sale, experienced a surge in sales after several incidents occurred one after another.
Seeing that the pre-sale sales exceeded 600,000 units, based on the prepayment of 100 yuan for each order, the prepayment alone at this time was already more than 60 million yuan.
After the staff reported the pre-sale sales to Zhang Xu on time, his face turned green.
The four foundries that are currently operating at full capacity can produce 500,000 units at full capacity, and they have sold out one month's sales!
This should be a very gratifying thing, but the problem is that according to the situation reported to him by the staff, the backend data of 'Xiaoai Technology Tmall Flagship Store' shows that sales are still soaring. If this continues, it will be officially launched at the end of the month.
, I’m afraid even if we add another 200,000 sales, we won’t be able to stop it.
"No, we have to urge them to continue looking for a new OEM factory, and they have to find a production line with large production capacity." Zhang Xu took a deep breath, suppressed the pressure caused by the sharp increase in sales, and got busy again.
But this time undoubtedly requires a lot of funds.
He couldn't solve the problem of lack of funds by himself, so he sent an email to the four shareholders of Xiaoai Technology, making it very clear about the actual data and growth trends, as well as the money Xiaoai Technology needed.
As for the 30 million that Kaiyun Investment has just increased in capital, it is earmarked and mainly used to pay for Xiao Ai’s advertising investment. Zhang Xu has no intention of using it for other purposes.
Xia Zekai and the others held a brief meeting and finally gave Zhang Xu an answer.
"Proceeding as planned, we are also looking for OEMs, specifically looking for large-scale foundries. They worry about money."
After all, a lot of money does not have to be paid immediately. According to the current situation, the existing funds can still cope with it for a while.
In addition, the pre-sale sales of ‘Xiao Ai Technology’ are so good, and the suppliers are also accommodating. Relatively speaking, the urgency is not that strong.
…
This sales volume was indeed beyond Xia Zekai's expectations.
Not to mention their four shareholders, even Jack Ma was shocked when he saw the pre-sale sales.
He had originally planned that on the day when 'Xiao Ai Classmate' actually started to be sold, if the sales were not good, he would mobilize people to buy Xiao Ai Classmate, including but not limited to himself.
Just like last year when we boosted the sales of ‘Jingtong Baby’ Tmall flagship store, we will boost sales of ‘Xiao Ai Classmates’ again this year. Anyway, we have to make the data beautiful.
But now, it seems that there is no need for him to do anything. The 'Classmate Xiao Ai' whom he was so optimistic about at the beginning has really become popular, and it is so popular that he is jealous.
"Damn it, I have to invest quickly!" Ma Yun thought of this and wanted to scold his mother in anger.
With the current pre-sale sales volume of 'Xiao Ai Classmate', there is no need to think about anything else, it will be enough to make money later.
Even if someone has a strong imitation ability, waiting for the other party to make a 'high imitation version of Xiao Ai' and then mass-produce it will take at least half a year.
By that time, Xiaoai Technology will have already made a lot of money.
Moreover, Ma Yun, relying on his own intuition, always felt that a birdie like Xia Zekai must have some tricks up his sleeve, waiting for the fools who make high imitations to take the bait.
He felt that if anyone imitated "Xiao Ai Classmate", they might end up losing everything, or even lose all their money!
But Jack Ma will not pity them.
When he thought of this, Ma Yun couldn't sit still. He took his mobile phone and searched for 'Boss Xia' and quickly called him.
But Xia Zekai didn't answer the phone.
Ma Yun called twice, but Xia Zekai didn't answer.
"What the hell is this bastard doing? He's not answering my phone." Ma Yun was annoyed.
Xia Zekai was busy talking to his grandpa at the moment. He was in a hurry to go out and even forgot to bring his mobile phone.
It was Luo Xiyun who saw Ma Yun calling her husband and asked Geng Yuqin to send him the phone.
"Lao Ma is looking for me?" Xia Zekai was confused, but still called back.
"What are you busy with? I can't find anyone every time I call you." Lao Ma couldn't help complaining.
Xia Zekai chuckled and said, "I'm chatting with my grandpa. Lao Ma, what's the emergency?"
