Chapter 177 Young people should be humble

Su Zhirong frowned slightly and asked, "Why is this?"

Su Xu said: "The product has insufficient functions, and another is whether we still have the habit of using smart homes in China."

"Last year, Amazon's Echo smart speaker sales exceeded 10 million units in the North American market, which is comparable to the sales of smartphones and computers! However, we, China, the manufacturer with the highest sales of smart speakers, is less than 1% of theirs."

"In the United States, some households regard smart speakers as a necessity like smartphones, but this market demand in our country has not opened up."

Lu Zixin said: "The function of the product limits its development."

To be honest, at the level of Xiaoyu smart speaker, he would not buy it, the performance is too poor.

"This is also related to the development of smart home appliances! There is no unified standard for domestic home appliances. Some families have bought smart speakers, but they do not have smart home appliances such as smart TVs, refrigerators, switches, and air conditioners that can be connected and managed. Playing songs, the price-performance ratio is too low." Su Xu also said helplessly.

"In any case, doing it must be done. To be a business, you must be forward-looking. If you can't develop now, it doesn't mean you can't do it in the future. I don't plan to take a break this year, and urge them to improve their products as soon as possible. Wait for the next shareholders meeting. Only then did the capital convince them to continue the project.”

On the side, Su Xiaomeng interjected: "Dad, you've been tinkering with it for two years, and you haven't seen how powerful this smart speaker has become. It's better to ask my brother-in-law for help, and I'll solve it for you in minutes!"

Su Xiaomeng gave Su Xu a critical blow, and he said with a dark face, "Child, what do you know?"

Seeing this, Lu Zixin said, "Actually, in terms of voice interaction and intelligent information processing, I can really help."

"You?" Su Xu looked at him questioningly, he knew that Lu Zixin was a high-level executive of Hongxin, and he was rich. But I don't know much about him and other aspects of Red Letter.

"You still understand this?" he asked.

"Understand. I also participated in the development of our Hongxin intelligent voice assistant." Lu Zixin said.

Su Xu still didn't believe it. He had asked Lu Zixin's education before, and it was just average. His so-called participation in development should be the kind of nominal, and he doesn't know much about technology.

Su Zhirong said, "Yes, Dad, if you have any questions, you can ask Lu Zixin directly."

"No need." Su Xu didn't believe it, and he, an elder, had to ask his son-in-law, which would be a loss of identity.

At this time, Liu Rui said: "Hongxin's intelligence, what is the Hongyun voice assistant called? It's very powerful. You might as well ask Xiao Lu to take a look with you, maybe it will help a little?"

She asked Lu Zixin again and said, "Little Lu, do you have time?"

"Yes, I've been staying in the magic capital for a few days." Lu Zixin nodded.

Su Xu was skeptical, but he had been tormented by this trouble for too long, thinking that maybe Lu Zixin could really give some advice.

He still asked cautiously: "This, does not involve the secrets of your company?"

"It's okay, I have my senses." Lu Zixin naturally wouldn't give them the company's confidential information, just helping them solve a few problems is enough for them.

"Okay, then you can go to the company with me now." Su Xu said immediately.

"I'm going too!" Su Xiaomeng shouted.

"Don't make trouble, stay at home obediently." Su Zhirong shouted, "We'll go out with Mom to buy some New Year's goods later."

...

Lu Zixin went to Leiyu Home Appliances Co., Ltd. with Su Xu in this way. After more than a time, they arrived at the place.

In the Thunderstorm Home Appliances Co., Ltd. building, as soon as Su Xu entered, the employees greeted him and said, "Hello, Mr. Su."

Seeing the young man behind Su Xu, they were still curious, as if they had never seen it before. Could it be a client?

When getting on the elevator, Su Xu also met an acquaintance. The man was about his age, and the nameplate on his chest read: Thunderstorm Home Appliances, Vice President, Cai Yun.

"Lao Su, aren't you going home?" Cai Yun asked in surprise.

"Have a meal, come back and look at the project." Su Xu replied simply.

Hearing Su Xu's answer, Cai Yun said with a smile: "Old Su, you still don't want to give up! This project, we discussed it at the last meeting, and it will be dismissed after the year."

"I know you have put in a lot of hard work, but the project will not yield results, and the shareholders will not agree. The research and development costs are too much. I can wait for the smart home appliance market in the Huaxia market to open before investing."

Su Xu disagreed with his point of view, saying: "Now the big home appliance brands are all doing smart homes, as well as companies in other fields such as Keli, Jingdong, Dami, and Lianxiang. The outlook is not good.”

Cai Yun disagreed, saying: "There is no need to research it yourself. It's not enough to directly represent foreign brands. Now the performance of smart speakers in North America is better than ours in China."

Su Xu shook his head and said, "Why is it so simple to be an agent? It's better to develop it yourself."

Seeing that Cai Yun couldn't convince him, he simply changed the subject and asked, "By the way, who is this?"

Su Xun introduced: "The girl's boyfriend is also a businessman, and he took him to visit our company."

"Oh. What a talent." Cai Yun said politely, and Lu Zixin responded simply.

Soon, they arrived at the department that develops smart speakers. Seeing Su Xu come in, everyone is accustomed to it. President Su has worked longer than their employees. It can be said that he is a dedicated model for the whole company.

"Lao Xia, Xiao Wan, come here." Su Xu ordered two people, only to see a middle-aged man and a young man about the age of Lu Zixin come over.

Su Xu introduced to Lu Zixin, "Lao Xia, Xia Ankang, the director of our Xiaoyu smart speaker R\u0026D department, has rich experience and has been working in the field of smart home appliances for more than ten years!"

"This is Wan Yongzhi, a top student who came back from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the United States. He has worked as a graduate student in a foreign speech intelligence laboratory, and his level is not bad."

"You can talk to them about technical issues."

Su Xu said, looking at Lu Zixin. Up to now, he is still very suspicious of Lu Zixin's words. When Lu Zixin criticized this smart speaker before, he was dissatisfied. Later, both daughters and his wife thought that Hongxin's skills were higher than their thunderstorm level, and he felt a little awkward.

Since Lu Zixin volunteered to help, let him see that Thunderstorm's research and development level is not low! When he came up, he showed Lu Zixin two expert-level talents, and gave Lu Zixin a slap in the face. Even if Lu Zixin is a little level, I believe that these two can definitely suppress him in terms of professional knowledge. Let him know that young people still have to know how to be humble!
