393 Surpa.s.sing 300 Million in a Day!
Y Cosmetics was filled with people, as always. Aside from girls, there were also many boys sporting helpless expressions on their faces; it was obvious that they were forced by their girlfriends.
At that juncture, the group of boys were chatting away while waiting, each of whom had an excited expression.
“Did you hear? Y Cosmetics bought over Wanrong Technology, and they’ve released a new product. It’s now very popular!”
“Of course! I heard it was a cleaning robot called Little Cloud. I watched the video and I was like ‘what the f*ck’! It’s really awesome!”
“If that’s the case, then there won’t be any need to sweep and mop the floor at home in the future. It can save a lot of effort.”
“That’s right. Employing a cleaner to clean the house costs a couple of hundred per job. It’s better to buy this robot.”
…
Everyone exchanged remarks with each other. They were bored anyway, so they chatted and gossiped.
Some curious people even walked up to Zhang Yunxi and asked about Little Cloud’s situation. Girls who could go there to buy cosmetics were never going to be short of money. There was a hint of eagerness in their eyes, and if they could, they would conveniently buy it whenever they wanted.
It was then that the sound of footsteps was heard. Two people in Wanrong Technology’s uniform drew the attention of the crowd.
They were holding none other than Little Cloud.
“h.e.l.lo, Miss Zhang. This is Y Group’s latest robot. It’s delivered specially for you to help you clean the shop,” the employee said respectfully.
“Is this kind of robot nice to use?” Zhang Yunxi had a hint of curiosity in her eyes. It was only natural for her to pay attention to that kind of news. She was initially worried that Ye Lingchen would be deceived, but at that point she could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
“Hehe, this one has an extra smart function compared to those on the Internet. It’s the latest model that’s currently not for sale.”
Even more high-tech?
The employee’s words immediately made the people around them doubly interested. Each person focused their attention on them.
“Don’t brag. If it’s so good, why not open and try it?” someone could not resist urging.
“That’s right. Seeing is believing. Let’s see how high-tech this really is.”
“If it’s that effective, I’ll definitely buy it. Let us have a look.”
Both of Wanrong Technology’s employees looked at each other and smiled imperceptibly while switching on the robot.
The robot was similar in appearance to the robots on the web, but there were a string of lights flas.h.i.+ng around that seemed to be its eyes.
“Smart cleaning robot Little Cloud is now fully charged and ready to serve you.”
Little Cloud turned around and made a crisp mechanical sound that seemed cutesy.
“Wow, they actually put a voice system in this one,” everyone exclaimed.
“Yes, this robot can be controlled through voice command, making it more intelligent than the ones on the Internet,” the staff explained.
“Little Cloud, clean the room again,” the curious Zhang Yunxi belted out an order.
“Roger that.”
Little Cloud replied and started to work.
There were plenty of people in Y Cosmetics, and there was a large amount of debris produced from their cosmetics, thus making the floor dirty. Under everyone’s close attention, Little Cloud began moving slowly along the path.
“Wow. Its cleaning ability is great. Other than very large and very heavy garbage, it also sucks in the others in the areas where it pa.s.ses.”
“It’s also very smart and can perceive obstacles in front of itself from a long distance, avoiding it in advance. It’s much smarter than the one at my home.”
“Did you notice that it rarely repeats the same path! Remembering its route is one of its functionalities!”
…
Everyone looked at it curiously and their interest grew stronger.
At that moment, someone turned his eyes and stood up to block Little Cloud. Little Cloud immediately avoided it, but the person raised his footsteps and blocked its way again.
After going back and forth three times that way, Little Cloud had no choice but to stop. Its light flickered and it said, “Please give way. Do not interfere with Little Cloud’s work.”
“Wow, so cute!”
“Hahaha, don’t you feel that sudden flood of maternal love?”
“Seriously, I don’t know why I’m happy.”
“Ah, ah, ah. I want to buy one too. It doesn’t only clean; it relieves boredom too.”
The girls in the whole shop failed to control themselves from having heart-shaped eyes. Their laughter was heard constantly.
At that moment, a few boys got upset and surrounded Little Cloud directly, blocking its surroundings. No matter which direction it went, it would hit an obstacle, making it impossible for it to go anywhere.
“Order, order! If n.o.body heeds, Little Cloud will get angry and go on strike,” the robotic voice sounded again, stunning everyone and causing them to burst into laughter.
It was too cute! It even became arrogant.
Then, the laughter gradually stopped, and Little Cloud really did not move under everyone’s eyes. Its light even went out, as if it had been completely turned off.
“F*ck, he actually went on strike.”
“Does it need to be so cute? No, my heart is urging me to buy one.”
“Don’t block him, don’t bully Little Cloud!”
Y Cosmetics became very lively because of Little Cloud’s arrival. At the same time, many people even took videos and shared them on the Internet. For a brief moment, TikTok was almost entirely occupied by Little Cloud, with its videos going viral everywhere.
In just one night, Little Cloud the robot ama.s.sed millions of fans.
Wanrong Technology Headquarters.
At that moment, every department was incredibly busy, especially the sales department. Their phone lines blew up, but everyone had a smile on their faces.
“Director Ouyang!” An employee was flush with excitement. “Our orders have exceeded ten thousand in one night, and it’s still growing rapidly!”
“Ten thousand?!”
Although Ouyang Qing was prepared for it, she was taken aback by that data. 10,000 units was equivalent to more than 80 million!
80 million in less than a single night! If that accomplishment was leaked out, it might shock the entire industry!
“It has reached eleven thousand units now. It might exceed thirty thousand today!” The man was so excited that his entire body was shaking.
If it reached 30,000 units, the sales would approach a full 300 million! It was only a single day’s sales, yet it already reached 300 million!
Ouyang Qing took a deep breath to calm her heart, and her eyes focused into deep seriousness. “Can production keep up?”
“We previously produced 10,000 units in advance, according to your instructions. Judging from the current situation however, it’s difficult to keep up,” the person replied.
“Then stop the direct sales and switch to pre-orders! Purchases can only be s.h.i.+pped in seven days!” Ouyang Qing decided at once. “Also, even though we’re speeding up production, we must ensure quality at the same time too. There must be no mistakes!”
“Okay.” The man nodded, then paused and continued. “Many people called to ask about our Smart-Version Little Cloud. They all wanted to buy the latest model.”
“Wait a minute. We currently have a limited supply, so they need to snap it up every day on our official website. We’ll only sell one hundred units, at a price of twelve thousand!” Ouyang Qing said with a piercing gaze and a smile on her face.
