I have a debt of 3 trillion, and my creditors are begging me not to die.

Chapter 178 Military orders worth 1200 billion yuan, Sihai drones and robot dogs sell like hot cakes

"Oh my god, Boss Yang's bionic dog was launched at the perfect time, right? It was launched just when the conflict between humans and dogs broke out. Does he want to use bionic dogs to replace real dogs and become pet dogs for dog lovers?"

"The bald eagle fainted in the toilet. Sihai Intelligence is really unstoppable. Just after restricting drones, here comes robot dogs. I have already thought of how to use these robot dogs for Da Mao and Er Mao. We can place remote-controlled bombs or time bombs in the bionic dogs. No one will pay too much attention to a dog, so it can work wonders."

"Haha...you bad guys, Boss Yang just wanted to produce simulated dogs to replace real dogs, which are very good civilian products, but you insisted on giving them military uses."

"I went to the Sihai Smart Experience Store to check it out. If you don't pay attention, you really can't tell that those simulated dogs are simulated dogs. Moreover, those simulated dogs are very smart and can imitate the barking and movements of dogs in most situations. And you can switch between the intelligent voices of Zhao Liying, Yang Min, and Di Li. The price is only 8999. I couldn't help but bought a Teddy and now I'm taking it shopping."

……

The heated discussions among netizens have continued to increase the popularity of the Sihai robot dog. Thanks to the good reputation of Yang Chen and the Sihai brand, Sihai smart experience stores in major cities are crowded. Customers who came in before mainly experienced drones, but now they mainly experience robot dogs.

The robot dog has also been launched on Sihai Smart’s official website and APP, Jingdong, Alimaw and other online flagship stores, and interested netizens have placed orders to purchase it.

The quantity of the first batch of production was not large, with only 1 units of each model produced. They were sold out both online and offline in less than 24 hours, and the samples in offline stores were all bought up by impatient buyers.

Many internet celebrities who wanted to take advantage of the popularity of the robot dog quickly filmed videos of themselves walking their dogs on the street and sent them to their fans. With the help of these internet celebrities, the Sihai robot dog, which was already on the hot searches, became even more popular. Many netizens urged Sihai Intelligence to work overtime and rush to deliver the product in the comment sections of Yang Chen and Sihai Intelligence's Weibo and other platform accounts.

With Yang Chen's understanding of robot dog technology, he knew that it wouldn't be long before other companies would follow suit and make similar products, so he now had to expand the scale of production as much as possible and reduce production costs through economies of scale. In the future, he could squeeze out competitors by lowering product prices.

The company that uses this market-grabbing strategy the best is Coca-Cola. In fact, cola is not difficult to make, but other companies have to sell their cola for around 6 yuan to make a profit, while Coca-Cola has achieved ultra-low costs due to economies of scale. It can still make a profit even if it sells it for 2.5 yuan a bottle. Other companies would lose so much money at this price that even their own mothers wouldn't recognize them. So after so many years, there are only Coca-Cola and Pepsi on the market, and other brands of cola are almost nowhere to be seen.

Yang Chen gave Huang Wei a production task. The robot dog production line had to run 24 hours a day. They had to make good use of this wave of popularity and grab as many customers in need as possible.

Yang Chen spent so much money to acquire the equity of Hongshu, Weibo, and Douyin, and it came in handy at this time.

The three major platforms simultaneously held an event called "Unlock the Use of Sihai Robot Dog". All users who bought Sihai Robot Dog could shoot a short video to participate in the event. If the number of likes exceeded 500, they could share a million-dollar prize.

Faced with such generous rewards, many users who bought Sihai robot dogs actively took photos of the functions of their robot dogs.

"I no longer ride an electric scooter when I go out to buy groceries. I just put the groceries on Wangcai's back. I no longer go to the post station outside the community to pick up parcels. I just control my Wangcai remotely with the pickup code to pick up the parcels."

"My father works in the countryside, farming. I bought him a robot dog. Now he doesn't have to carry food or fertilizers himself. He can just put them on the robot dog. He can easily carry more than 100 kilograms of things. Sometimes when he's tired, he just sits on the robot dog and goes home."

"My daughter likes dogs very much, but I am worried that it will be dangerous for her to play with dogs. The Sihai robot dog not only satisfies my daughter's wish, but also relieves me from the safety issue. The most important point is that the robot dog can also sing and tell stories. She has learned several songs in the past few days."

"The Sihai robot dog is really useful. I installed a machine gun on it and it made Yuzi scream. I plan to buy more to help us protect our homeland. Let me show you the actual combat effect. It's really amazing."

An abnormal video suddenly mixed in among many normal videos, quickly attracting the attention of netizens.

"Oh my god! Dude, are you AI or real? Why are you beating up Yuzi? Are you a mercenary?"

"No...Hasma also hired mercenaries? How can you help them fight the squid?"

"Haha... I am dying of laughter. Boss Yang will cry when he sees this video. Boss Yang: I have repeatedly stated that all I produce are civilian products, but you foreigners always use civilian products for military purposes. Aren't you harming me?"

“Bald Eagle: Boss Yang, you still say you are not a military-industrial enterprise?”

……

That night, the Bald Eagle spokesperson broke down again.

"Condemn. We strongly condemn Yang Chen and Sihai Group for producing military equipment in the name of civilian use. We found that Hasma actually used Sihai robot dogs equipped with machine guns to attack humans. This is inhumane and against the laws of nature. We firmly oppose it. We demand that Yang Chen and Sihai Group must immediately and unconditionally stop producing robot dogs, otherwise we will escalate sanctions against Sihai Group and Yang Chen himself."

Soon the latest video of the bald eagle spokesperson was uploaded on YouTube, and foreigners collectively lost their composure.

South Korean netizens: Protest! Firmly protest! Yang Chen's production of a robot dog that can be equipped with a machine gun seriously violates the principle of humanitarianism, because the opponent is a human, and you send a robot dog to fight, which is very disrespectful to the opponent and very unfair. Because people will be afraid, but robot dogs will not be afraid.

Sakura Country Netizen: Too scary! You can imagine what it would be like to see a group of emotionless and fearless robot dogs rushing towards you fiercely on the battlefield. At this time, what else can you do except turn around and run away? I firmly oppose robot dogs on the battlefield. It is too unfair to soldiers from other countries.

Bald Eagle Netizen: Yang Chen keeps saying that he produces civilian equipment, but every time he uses it for military purposes. Now you understand why our country has imposed such severe sanctions on Sihai Group? It is recommended that all countries unite to ban Sihai Group's products. They have seriously violated the rules of the game. We cannot watch them continue to be so presumptuous.

Mohammed, a netizen from Sand Country: I am a fan of Yang Chen and Sihai Group. I keep an eye on whether they have any new products every day. Robot dogs are really attractive. I want to buy 10 of them to equip our army. We will become the most powerful country in the Middle East, no doubt about it.

……

Some people's comments are purely empty talk, but the comments from big investors are truly from the heart.

A business team from Leyard came to visit the Sihai Intelligent Factory. After Huang Wei took them on the tour, the other party began to put forward conditions.

They plan to buy 1 of each type of robot dogs, but they need the robot dogs to have interfaces and space for easy modification. At the same time, Sihai Intelligence must provide permanent after-sales service. This after-sales service mainly refers to software maintenance and upgrades. There are no requirements for hardware. If it can be used, it will be used. If it cannot be used, it will be thrown away. Anyway, big dog owners don’t lack this little money.

When the other party stated this condition, Huang Wei had already guessed what they were going to do with these robot dogs.

There are 1 models of robot dogs, 10 each, which adds up to 10. Based on the average price of 2 per dog, that's an order of 20 billion.

Huang Wei didn't dare to make a decision easily, and quickly invited Yang Chen to come over to talk to the client.

Yang Chen came to the negotiation site, and after understanding the situation, he said with a smile: "I know why you made this request, and you also know that our Sihai Intelligence is now being targeted by countries led by the Bald Eagle. If this order is in accordance with your requirements, they will target us more severely in the near future."

The representative of the other party smiled and said, "We have a very good relationship with Longguo and have a very close economic and trade cooperation relationship. We especially respect technology. As long as your company can meet our requirements, we can offer this price for a Teddy Bionic Dog like this?"

The other representative smiled and extended his right index finger.

Yang Chen said: "Ten thousand? It is indeed very tempting...but..."

"I'm talking about Eagle Coin!" said the other representative.

Yang Chen immediately stretched out his hand to shake hands with the other party’s representative, and said with a smile: “Deal!”

The other party's representative urged: "Then let's sign the contract now. Once the order is confirmed, you will start production immediately and hope to deliver the goods as soon as possible."

I'm afraid that the big dog owner doesn't know what 1 Eagle Coins means, so he uses them as Dragon Coins.

Yang Chen immediately asked Huang Wei to draw up a contract. The Teddy Dog was 1 Eagle Coins each, and the Roller Skating Robot Dog was 5 Eagle Coins each...

The total value of the contract reached 34 billion Eagle Dollars, the delivery date is 2-3 months, and the consignee is Poly Military Industry Group.

It seems that they have reached an agreement with Baoli Military Industry Group, and the Sihai robot dog was sent there to be modified into military equipment.

At this time, the business representative of Gou Da Hu took out another purchase contract and gave it to Yang Chen, and said: "Mr. Yang, we are also very interested in your SH020 drone. This product has proven its value in Da Mao and Er Mao's homes. We will not waste time discussing it and will place an order with you directly."

Yang Chen carefully read the purchase contract. Not surprisingly, they required the drone to have an interface for easy modification and provide lifelong software after-sales service.

“Your request is too direct. I can tell what you want to do just by looking at it.” Yang Chen said with a smile.

The dog owner representative smiled and said, "Look at the price, Mr. Yang. I think it's worth the risk."

indeed!

The domestic price of this drone is 1.8, and the purchase price given by the big dog owner is 1 Eagle Coins. With this profit margin, any hesitation on Yang Chen's part would be disrespectful to money.

They purchased 5 in total, which is 5 million Eagle Coins. Including the 34 billion robot dog order just now, the total is 39 billion Eagle Coins. Not to mention private enterprises like Sihai Group, even national-level military sales rarely achieve a single order amount of 39 billion Eagle Coins.

Yang Chen smiled and said, "You guys respect technology so much, then what else can I say? We accept this purchase contract."

The representative of the other party took out a Dragon Country Bank card and handed it to Yang Chen, saying: "This is the international card we opened in your Dragon Country Bank. There are 20 billion Eagle Coins deposited in it. This is our down payment. When you deliver the goods to Baoli Military Industry Group, we will pay the balance in one lump sum. Is that ok?"

That's absolutely no problem. Even if they don't pay the balance, Sihai Intelligence has already made a lot of money. The big dog customers still have no idea about the exchange rate between Eagle Coin and Dragon Coin.

Yang Chen smiled and said: "No wonder our country likes to do business with you so much, you really know how to respect technology. You respect technology, and I have to respect money. So, we will give priority to producing your goods, and we will definitely deliver them to Baoli Military Industry Group within two months."

The representative of the other party laughed heartily and said, "I feel relieved when Mr. Yang said that. I look forward to your delivery and wish us a long and happy cooperation."

Both parties were very satisfied with the deal. Yang Chen made so much profit that he was embarrassed to say how big the profit was, while Gou Da Hu felt that it was a great deal to build an integrated ground-to-air intelligent force with only a few billion. Coupled with the Dragon Country's Dongfeng series of missiles, no one in the entire Blue Star would dare to touch them easily.

There is too much oil at home. I am not afraid of thieves stealing it, but I am afraid of thieves thinking about it. I still have to arm myself to feel at ease.

Early the next morning, a row of military vehicles arrived at the Sihai Intelligent Factory. Huang Wei quickly called Yang Chen and asked him to come over to receive these guests.

When Yang Chen heard that the military had sent someone again, he hurried over.

This time it was not Li Xinjun who led the team, he was just an follower. The team leader was a serious senior military officer, Jiang Wenming.

"Haha... Mr. Yang, congratulations, congratulations, you are now the largest private arms dealer in our country." Jiang Wenming said with a smile.

Yang Chen laughed loudly, and said, “Mr. Jiang, stop teasing me. I’m just a small workshop that produces civilian equipment. I have no right to control how customers use the products they buy. My life has been like walking on thin ice. Every step I take is restricted. It’s so miserable.”

"Haha... Mr. Yang, you don't have to tread on thin ice. Just keep your head up and move forward. The country is your strong backing. I didn't come here empty-handed. I brought the country's support to you. We are going to purchase a large number of Sihai drones and robot dogs. According to your official selling price, the total amount of this contract will reach 1200 billion." Jiang Wenming said with a smile.

Yang Chen took the order and studied it carefully. It was basically the same as the dog owner's requirements. He wanted to use Sihai Intelligent's drones and robot dogs to build an air-to-ground combined fully intelligent combat force. These robot dogs and drones would be deployed on the western border. Sihai Intelligent's wheeled robot dogs were particularly suitable for the mountainous environment here.

If an integrated air-ground intelligent combat force is deployed on the western border, the western border can be kept safe without the soldiers having to take risks. The 1200 billion is well worth it.

"Thanks to the government, thank you to the country. I feel like I'm about to take off, the kind that no one can stop me." Yang Chen said with a smile.

Jiang Wenming laughed and said, "If I say that we will communicate with the relevant departments and issue a document to encourage everyone to raise robot dogs instead of real dogs, who will Director Yang thank?"

Yang Chen smiled and said: "Then I have to thank myself, which shows that my skills are really amazing."

"Haha... well said! Mr. Yang, you don't have to thank anyone except yourself. It is indeed because of your excellent skills that these orders are delivered to your door. The problem of stray dogs and the conflicts between humans and dogs are already quite serious. The bionic robot dogs you produce are really timely. The relevant departments will encourage everyone to buy the Sihai bionic robot dogs as pets, so as to solve the conflicts I mentioned. As long as we sign the contract, the initiative jointly issued by multiple departments will be announced. Let's talk about the price." Jiang Wenming said with a smile.

Although he didn't know whether the so-called initiative document Jiang Wenming mentioned was true or just for bargaining, the 1200 billion order should indeed be given some discounts, otherwise Yang Chen himself would feel embarrassed.

Yang Chen immediately replied: "The total value of 1200 billion remains unchanged, but I will increase the total quantity for you by 10%. Is that OK? Is that a little too much?"

"Haha... Mr. Yang knows how to do business! That's fine, the number given above is 1200 billion anyway, and it's certainly a good thing if you give 10% more, so just do as Mr. Yang says. Then there's the delivery method, we need to deliver the goods at regular intervals, so as to avoid the embarrassment of all equipment having to be retired collectively after a certain period of use. Mr. Yang, do you understand what I mean?" Jiang Wenming continued.

Yang Chen nodded and said, "I understand this! We first built 055 Type 8 destroyers, and then continued to build them after a period of time. This way, we can ensure that there are always enough Type 055 destroyers available."

"Yes, yes, that's what I mean. Our plan is to deliver 5 units of each type of equipment in the first batch, and then 1 units each year until all the goods are delivered. Our payment method is that we will pay for this batch of goods every time we deliver the goods. Okay?" Jiang Wenming said.

Yang Chen smiled and replied: "That's fine, I can accept it."

Jiang Wenming smiled and stood up to shake hands with Yang Chen, saying: "Then we have reached an agreement, let's sign the contract now."

"No problem! Sign now!" Yang Chen said with a smile.

The two parties immediately drafted the contract, and signed and stamped it immediately after both parties confirmed that there were no problems.

Jiang Wenming held Yang Chen's hand and said, "Director Yang, I wish us a happy cooperation. I won't bother you any more. Goodbye!"

"It's a pleasure working with you. I'll see you off." Yang Chen said happily.

The scale effect that Yang Chen wanted has come. With this 1200 billion order plus the 39 billion Eagle Coin order from Mr. Gou, the price of parts given by suppliers can be reduced by at least 10%. The reduced cost will become the profit of Sihai Intelligence.

Even if other companies have developed similar products now, they will definitely not be able to produce them at the same price as Sihai Intelligent, and they will not be able to compete with Sihai Intelligent.

That night, The Paper was the first to release the news.

"According to reliable information, the Longguo military has signed a contract worth 1200 billion yuan with Sihai Intelligence. The military will purchase drones and robot dogs produced by Sihai Intelligence to build an air-ground integrated unmanned intelligent combat force, and it is likely to be deployed on the western border."

As soon as this news came out, it quickly became a hot search on major platforms.

"Oh my god, 1200 billion, how many robot dogs and drones can we buy? What is our mother going to do?"

"An air-ground integrated unmanned intelligent combat force. Does that mean that we don't need so many real soldiers?"

"As we all know, military products must be of the highest quality. Since Sihai Intelligent's drones and robot dogs have been recognized by the military, there is no need for anyone to question the quality of the products."

"This is what technological progress should look like. Our soldiers don't have to risk their lives anymore. In the future, drones and robot dogs will patrol the border and deal with various crises. I'm not jealous of Boss Yang making this money. He deserves it because our soldiers' lives are priceless. It's only 1200 billion, which is a great bargain."

……

Subsequently, several departments actually issued initiative documents.

The document first describes several popular incidents of people biting dogs, and also lists the comments of most upright people and extreme dog lovers. Finally, the document encourages everyone to buy bionic dogs produced by Sihai Intelligence, which can meet the needs of pets, prevent them from hurting people, and solve the problem of stray dogs.

This document is primarily an "initiative" rather than an order, so it is hard to say how many people will accept this initiative.

Yang Chen immediately ordered Sihai Intelligence to forward this initiative document and launch a promotion at the same time. All customers who use this initiative document to purchase the Sihai Bionic Robot Dog will receive a 10% discount and will also receive a lifetime free software upgrade service.

Thanks to the joint efforts of Sihai Intelligence and multiple departments, the popularity of Sihai Intelligence's bionic robot dog has reached a new high, and the number of discussions on related topics on Weibo has even exceeded 10 billion.

"Oh my god, this is the first time I see so many departments jointly advocate the purchase of a product. Has Boss Yang been recruited?"

"With so many departments jointly advocating this, the Sihai Bionic Robot Dog will definitely sell like hot cakes. Boss Yang will make a fortune and the 3 trillion yuan debt will be settled."

"He just received a 1200 billion purchase order from the military, and now he has received benefits from multiple departments. Boss Yang is really going to take off. Even someone as powerful as Da Jiang doesn't get this kind of treatment, but Boss Yang and Sihai Intelligence can get this kind of treatment. I say the future belongs to Sihai Intelligence. Who is in favor and who is against?"

……

Many people who have watched the videos of drones and robot dogs shot by internet celebrities were already tempted to buy them, but they were still a little hesitant. Now that they have seen the initiative document jointly issued by multiple departments, they no longer hesitate and immediately go online or offline to buy Sihai drones and robot dogs.

Sihai drones and robot dogs, which were already in short supply, are now even harder to buy. Some people even pay high prices to scalpers, just to get their favorite drones and robot dogs as soon as possible.

Huang Wei happily came to Yang Chen's office to report on her work.

"Director Yang, our drones and robot dogs are selling like hot cakes. The number of reservations for drones has exceeded 100 million, and the number of reservations for robot dogs has exceeded 500 million. In addition to the orders from the military and the Kingdom of Sand, as well as the drones branded by Germany, we can't meet the demand even if we produce at full capacity. How about giving the newly built Phase IV Industrial Park to Sihai Intelligent, and we can open more production lines. Do you think it's okay?"
