Chapter 145: Tianmu Series Conceptions

After pondering for a moment, Liu Qingli said:

"This method of purchasing first and then getting a rebate is actually no different from paying a deposit; the most important thing is to look at the practicality of the equipment and the reputation of the manufacturer."

"If it were anyone else, this method might not necessarily succeed, but if it is the boss, this method is actually very suitable for promotion."

"However, the biggest benefit of us promoting this with such great fanfare is the popularization of the 5G network. Although we can ask the operators for subsidies, there is no way it could cover our entire investment, let alone achieve profitability."

The other few people also looked at Su Xin with confusion.

Not to mention whether this method can really make the Smart Butler fully popularized, even if it could, it would not be of much benefit to Tianqi Company.

Su Xin smiled and said: "This is one of the steps for me to enter the communications industry. By accelerating the popularization of the 5G network and accelerating the development of 5G-related industries, my next plan can be better implemented when the time comes."

"Even if it loses money, it doesn't matter; this bit of money doesn't put much pressure on me."

The few people felt speechless for a moment.

However, seeing that Su Xin was still being mysterious and clearly had no intention of telling them his next plan for the time being, they would not be tactless enough to press him.

Fu Benjing thought for a while and said:

"Boss, if we achieve a free effect through rebates based on online duration, based on everyone's trust in President Su, I estimate that many people will choose to purchase repeatedly to 'fleece the wool'."

"The key is that once the Small Base Station is popularized to a certain extent, having too many of them will have no meaning; instead, it will cause a waste of resources and cause us significant losses."

"Although the boss is not worried about losses, if we can avoid them, it is certainly better not to lose money."

"Therefore, I think we need to promote it moderately. Rebating through online duration is not very appropriate, and full rebates are also not advisable."

"After all, the boss has conceived so many practical functions for the Smart Butler, so the cost will not be small. I think we still need to let everyone pay something, otherwise, people will not cherish it."

Su Xin nodded thoughtfully.

Fu Benjing continued:

"I am considering, since the rebate is given to users because of the promotion of the Small Base Station, can we charge and rebate based on the signal access volume? I wonder if the technical difficulty is high?"

Su Xin thought for a moment.

In the end, he shook his head and said: "The technical difficulty is not high, but I think this method is also not very appropriate. Users cannot see a clear rebate amount, and they will definitely have concerns when purchasing, which is not conducive to the promotion of the Smart Butler."

At this time, Liu Qingli suggested:

"Since we are worried that users will purchase repeatedly and cause waste, we might as well open a mall section within Tiantian Assistant and let users purchase in limited quantities using their Tiantian Assistant accounts."

"Although we cannot achieve full popularization, Tiantian Assistant already has 300 million member users in Long Country. Even if only 100 million of them purchase it, it will be enough to cover the whole country with the 5G network."

"As for the rebate amount, I agree with President Fu's view. There is no need for a full rebate; just rebating a portion of the amount through online duration is sufficient."

"After the design of the Smart Butler is completed, we can calculate it based on cost and service life. For example, if the maximum service life is eight years, we can calculate a rebate of 80% accumulated over eight years."

"This is already a great discount. As long as our product has advantages, it will definitely be able to be popularized according to the plan."

After discussing for a while, the few people all agreed with Liu Qingli's opinion.

Su Xin looked at Fu Benjing in the video and said: "The Smart Butler project is basically decided like this. President Fu, it is left to you to push it forward. If you need other subsidiaries to cooperate, you can communicate with each other yourselves."

"If you encounter technical difficulties, come find me."

"Also, I will give you the phone number of an official contact person so he can help you bridge the connection with the Four Major Operators to discuss cooperation issues."

"Understood."

Fu Benjing nodded seriously, then asked: "Then for the production of the Smart Butler, should we acquire a factory ourselves, or hand it over to an OEM factory?"

Su Xin said casually: "You all discuss this yourselves; I don't care about these details."

The few people discussed some more details and basically finalized the Smart Butler project.

After the meeting ended.

Su Xin finished calling Hao Zude, then let out a light breath, half-reclined in his boss chair, and rubbed his head with some fatigue.

During this period, his industries were increasing, and the projects he needed to research were also increasing. Even if he didn't manage the company's miscellaneous affairs, he was still somewhat busy.

Next, he would be even busier.

Vision Enhancement Potion.

Advanced Lithography Machine, and all key technologies related to it.

Both of these were enough for other top experts to study for a lifetime, yet he had to carry them out simultaneously.

After resting for a while.

He called Nie Hongwu to ask about the progress of the clinical trials for the Tianmu No. 1 agent.

At this time, the first phase of clinical trials was nearing its end, and every volunteer had shown super-strong vision without any side effects.

"It seems there is no problem with this technology."

Su Xin smiled slightly, and the fatigue of his body and mind seemed to dissipate instantly, and his whole person became spirited.

He got up and left the company, took a car to the Biology Laboratory located in the suburbs, and continued the improvement work on Tianmu No. 1.

Although the clinical trials for Tianmu No. 1 had only gone through the first phase, he already had sufficient certainty and there was no need to wait for subsequent verification.

Next, he wanted to develop Tianmu No. 2, and even Tianmu No. 3 and higher-level agents, based on the technical foundation of Tianmu No. 1.

In Su Xin's conception.

The vision enhancement effect of Tianmu No. 2 should be stronger than No. 1, at least reaching over 1,000 meters, and it should enhance dark vision, which is the ability to see things in dark environments.

For Tianmu No. 3, in addition to the further strengthening of previous capabilities, microscopic vision, wide-angle vision, and dynamic vision should all have significant enhancements.

Only at this step would the Tianmu Series Agent truly usher in a earth-shaking transformation.

However, the difficulty was also extremely great.

It was not much less than the R&D difficulty of the full set of technologies for the Advanced Lithography Machine.

While Su Xin was devoted to his research.

Fu Benjing, who was in charge of the Smart Butler project, gathered with the senior management of the Four Major Operators of Long Country under the bridge-building of Hao Zude to solemnly discuss the cooperation issues of terminal base stations.

The 5G network technology had been released and put into use for three or four years now. From the initial concept being popular, the whole nation cheering, and everyone expecting it, to later gradually becoming quiet, many people did not feel the changes brought by 5G.

Many experts and scholars, as well as major internet companies, had not seen the various advanced application methods they had previously promoted appear in real life.

All of this is because the demand for communication base stations for the 5G Network is too great, such that even the Four Major Operators of Long Country cannot deploy them rapidly.

This has resulted in many users being unable to truly use the 5G Network most of the time, even if they have bought 5G mobile phones and are using 5G plans.

This has brought a poor experience to many people, which in turn has caused everyone to be greatly disappointed in 5G.
