Chapter 293 Can your dog carry weapons?
The drone business is tough.
These were the heartfelt words that Lu Han's cousin spoke to the three people in dormitory 402 after signing the acquisition agreement.
Unfortunately, the three young men, driven by their passion at the time, only thought that Lu Han's cousin was making excuses for himself as a loser.
But when they actually stepped out of the ivory tower and into society and started their own business, the three of them realized that their cousin Lu Han was a really good person!
This statement is absolutely sincere and without any hidden agenda!
Currently, the Chinese drone market has become a highly competitive and competitive market.
YunTu dominates the market, holding the majority of the market share.
The remaining small market share is fiercely contested by dozens of companies.
Their Longchen Zhihang isn't even a small player among them.
Neither our brand nor our technology can compare to any other company.
The only viable system they possess, the Hive Consciousness Cluster Control System, also faces challenges related to its operating environment.
After all, for this system to function, it needs at least dozens of machines in an environment.
But what ordinary individual user would buy dozens of units at once?
Which large company that buys dozens of units would buy their unknown, no-name brand?
In short, Longchen Zhihang lost over a million yuan in the first month after taking over the company.
I didn't make a single penny.
The monthly revenue was even lower than the pre-acquisition peak.
Because the brand changed, even Lu Han's cousin's long-time customers returned a lot of their products.
Therefore, during this period, Lu Han and the other two also put a lot of effort into improving the company's performance.
After some discussion, the group concluded that it would be very difficult to break into the drone market now.
We must open up new markets.
As it happened, Lu Han's cousin left them an inheritance.
That's an unmanned robot dog that their company is developing.
The three of them have now named this robot dog Chen Gou No. 1!
Originally, it was a robot dog that Lu Han's cousin developed himself using a patent he bought from someone else.
After Lu Han and his team bought the company, Shi Jun and Chen Hao used their professional knowledge to make further modifications to the robot dog.
Chen Hao used his electrical engineering knowledge to improve the load capacity of Chen Gou No. 1.
Shi Jun successfully transplanted the insect hive consciousness system onto Chen Gou No. 1, and also achieved joint control between Chen Gou No. 1 and a drone named Chen Niao No. 1.
Tomorrow, there will be a drone exhibition at the Nanjing Convention and Exhibition Center. Lu Han and his team spent a lot of money to buy a booth at the exhibition.
The goal was to successfully launch Chen Gou No. 1 at this exhibition and make a name for the company.
This exhibition is a do-or-die situation!
……
The following day, at the convention center.
At the Longchen Intelligent Aviation booth, Lu Han was preparing for the upcoming press conference.
While they were reciting their words, they suddenly heard devastating news: they had been ambushed!
YunTu, already a leading drone manufacturer, has surprisingly established a new subsidiary called LuXing Technology, which is also preparing to launch its own robot dog product, LuXing No. 1, today.
Now their small company is going to have to go head-to-head with LuXing Technology, which is backed by YunTu.
For a moment, the employees of Longchen Intelligent Aviation were somewhat unsure of themselves.
"Boss, are we really going to launch our product today?"
Some employees directly suggested to Lu Han that the date be changed.
After all, with Lu Xing backed by Yuntu, who would still pay attention to their products?
Moreover, according to information obtained by their own employees who secretly went to other companies' booths, LuXing Technology's robot dog seems to be more advanced than their ChenGou-1 in many aspects!
"When two brave men meet on a narrow road, the bravest will prevail!"
Lu Han gritted his teeth and said something.
Chen Gou No. 1 is their last hope. If they don't even have the courage to compete head-on with others, how can they talk about starting a business?
However, sometimes courage cannot solve all problems.
At the scheduled time, Lu Han's press conference was held as planned.
It should be said that the preparations for this press conference were indeed very thorough, and Lu Han, who served as the host, was also quite eloquent, effectively engaging the audience.
In their simultaneous live stream, the number of viewers exceeded ten thousand, and the chat was very active.
However, all of this took a sharp turn for the worse as Lu Xing's press conference began.
"Why are there still people watching? YunTu's press conference has started! They also have a robot dog!"
"Brothers, we've moved! The robot dogs at Yuntu seem to be even stronger than these!"
"YunTu has robot dogs now? That's great! I was almost going to order from them, but I'll check out YunTu's first!"
"Sorry, streamer, it's not that your stuff is bad, but I'd still like to take another look at Yuntu."
……
Seeing the sudden drop in audience numbers, Chen Hao and Shi Jun could only shake their heads helplessly and continue watching Lu Han on stage vigorously promoting his own products.
The press conference ended an hour later.
Lu Han wiped the sweat from his brow and came down, asking, "How was it?"
The employees under his command dared not speak, so Chen Hao went up and took a bottle of mineral water and handed it to Lu Han.
"Fourth brother, we might really not be suited for business..."
Not even one?
Lu Han realized what was happening and said with a grim expression, "Are our products really that much worse than Yuntu's?"
"Their press conference is still ongoing, you can check it out yourself."
Chen Hao handed over his phone.
While Lu Han was holding his press conference, they were also watching YunTu's live stream to observe the performance of their competitor's product.
Lu Han glanced at it and quickly understood the reason from the large screen of the other party's press conference.
As expected, Yuntu's Land Rover No. 1 completely outperformed their Chen Gou No. 1 in terms of performance.
Whether it's load-bearing capacity, balance, or battery life, it's superior to Chen Gou No. 1.
It's no wonder it's a product from a big company.
In comparison, Chen Gou No. 1's only two advantages are probably its insect hive consciousness cluster control system and its price.
However, for the former to function, at least two Chen Gou units are required.
So when you calculate it, Chen Gou No. 1 only has one advantage: its price.
The other company's Land Rover One costs 10,000 yuan, while Chen Gou only costs 3999 yuan. That's less than half the price of the other company's.
"It's alright! At least we're not completely without advantages, are we?"
Lu Han smiled wryly as he encouraged everyone.
But the situation did not improve at all.
In the time that followed, some people came to inquire about their products, but very few were actually interested in Chen Gou No. 1.
In particular, the only two advantages of Chen Gou No. 1 are completely useless.
"Swarm control? It's just a robot dog, what use would I have for that function? To create a swarm of dogs?"
“3999 isn’t cheap. With that money, wouldn’t it be better to buy a Yuntu? If you sell it for 1999, I’ll buy one and give it a try.”
The feedback from the customers who came to inquire made Lu Han and his team's hearts sink to the bottom.
With the exhibition nearing its end, everyone dejectedly began packing up their booth.
A staff member approached a man who was looking at the Chen Gou No. 1 technical manual and said, "Sir, we need to pack up and leave. Could you please give me back this manual?"
"Are you leaving?"
The man seemed somewhat surprised, then pointed to a spot in the manual and asked, "Before we leave, could you explain to me what this 'Hive Consciousness Cluster Control System' means?"
"Ok."
Despite feeling frustrated, the staff member maintained a smile and explained the situation to the other party.
The man's eyes lit up after hearing this.
"Um, could you please have your manager come over here for a moment? I have some questions I'd like to ask."
"alright."
A moment later, Lu Han walked over. Although he was in a bad mood, he still managed to force a smile.
"Sir, is there anything I can help you with?"
"I'd like to ask, can your robot dogs be equipped with weapons?"
