Rebirth of a technological power

The next day, half past nine.

Cai Jin's bedroom door was knocked awake.

Cousins ​​have arrived.

Cai Jin asked them to assemble the parts they made last night.

The parts printed yesterday were enough to assemble more than two hundred mechanical dogs.

Cai Jin yawned, opened Douyin and Bilibili, and browsed the background.

In addition to yesterday's order of 300 mechanical dogs, there is now an additional order of 200 mechanical dogs.

This means that they have to make 500 mechanical dogs.

Cai Jin sighed.

The three cousins ​​are all newbies, and their assembly speed is not much faster.

If he wanted the order to be completed and shipped quickly, he had to do it himself.

What a happy trouble.

I had dinner at home at noon and didn’t take a lunch break, so I started assembling.

By 4:30 p.m., only 100 mechanical dogs had been assembled, most of which were assembled by Cai Jin.

Cai Jin took time to test and upgrade the assembled mechanical dogs, put them into gift boxes one by one, put them into express bags, and affixed the express barcodes.

It took a full hour. Cai Jin looked at the time. If he didn't send it out, he would have to postpone it until tomorrow.

He quickly called Cai Qingguo and asked him to drive to his home to pick up the express delivery.

Cai Jin had to hire another person to pack the mechanical dog into the gift box and enter the barcode information, otherwise he wouldn't have much time.

Fortunately, there are the most idle people in the village at this time.

The cousins ​​​​accepted the recruitment quotas one by one, which brought the number of people under him to six.

Five people are responsible for assembling the mechanical dog, and one person is responsible for taking the mechanical dog to the living room and setting it up. After Cai Jin completes the test, he puts it into gift boxes one by one, and then records the order information and affixes the barcode.

Cai Jin's only job is to test the mechanical dog, shoot short videos, and live broadcast.

After get off work in the evening, in the dead of night, Cai Jin continued to study ‘Benben’.

Videos of hundreds of robotic dogs moving in unison, paired with music, have made the videos increasingly popular.

Cai Jin's fans grew rapidly. Before he knew it, the number of people following him on Douyin alone exceeded 100,000, and the number of people following him on Station B was about to reach 100,000.

There are even more people who have watched his videos.

In fact, everyone in their village, town, and the town next door knew about him, and some people even came to buy the mechanical dog directly.

Those who like this kind of intelligent mechanical dog for children are basically those who have children and buy the mechanical dog for their children to play with.

As for younger college students, high school students, and junior high school students, they have become fans of Benben.

Cai Jin made ‘Benben’ run at a speed of 4m/s, easily breaking the world record.

‘Bengben’ went up and down the stairs as nimbly as a dog, shocking countless people.

The orders are increasing, and Cai Jin has to consider buying a 3D printer and hiring more people.

But before that, Cai Jin had to solve the problem of the house.

In the end, Cai Jin rented one or five floors. It was originally decorated to be a restaurant, but in the current situation, it was impossible to open it.

Cai Jin rented it for one year.

Cai Jin bought two 3D printers specifically to print this kind of low-end children's mechanical dog. He also bought a laser sintering 3D printer, each cost 1.2 million. Fortunately, it supports Alipay installment, otherwise, Cai Jin wouldn't be able to afford it.

Soon, the 3D printer was delivered.

After the installation of three 3D printers was completed, Cai Jin also moved the 3D printer at home to a rented house. In this way, the first to third floors are used to assemble low-end children's intelligent mechanical dogs. The daily production capacity can reach 600. Cai Jin hired 30 people came to assemble it, and three people were hired to transport the intelligent mechanical dog, put the mechanical dog into a gift box, and send it out.

Cai Jin used a laser sintering 3D printer to print the parts of the mechanical dog and assembled it himself. This thing has many parts and electronic components, which is difficult for ordinary people to assemble.

It's not like he hasn't thought about finding a foundry, but now all the foundries around him have closed down.

In southern Fujian, there are not many industries.

In the past, labor costs were low and material prices were not high, so OEMs still made money.

But now, labor costs have increased a lot, material prices have also increased a lot, and foundries can't make any money at all.

So Cai Jincai simply hired someone to assemble it himself.

It can also be regarded as promoting employment for people in hometown.

During the test, Cai Jin only needs to conduct the test uniformly, and he does not need to watch all the time.

"Finally assembled one!" Cai Jin touched the intelligent mechanical dog he assembled.

This mechanical dog has a black body and is made of aluminum alloy. It is equipped with a pair of super-sensory systems, 1* (4*1.43GHz 128Core0.5T) sensory computing power, intelligent accompanying, image transmission, and heat pipe auxiliary heat dissipation.

Cai Jin priced it at 10,000 yuan.

It takes Cai Jin an hour to assemble such a mechanical dog, and the cost is about 2,000 yuan. By assembling one, he can earn 8,000 yuan.

Cai Jin named it the basic version, which will be upgraded through testing later, with various upgraded versions.

Cai Jin stroked the mechanical dog, and the virtual panel appeared:

[Item: Junior Intelligent Mechanical Dog]

[Experience value: 0/5000]

[Optimization points: 15]

Cai Jin has discovered that the less he participates, the fewer optimization points he obtains. For example, now that he has hardly participated in the assembly of the mechanical dog, the optimization points have been greatly reduced.

The more high-end the product he makes, the more optimization points he gets.

For example, if he makes such a junior intelligent mechanical dog, he can get 1 optimization point, which is equivalent to making 10 low-end children's intelligent mechanical dogs.

Cai Jin operated the program and asked the mechanical dog to start various tests.

While the mechanical dog was being tested, Cai Jin continued to assemble a new intelligent mechanical dog.

Throughout the whole day, Cai Jin assembled a total of 8 intelligent mechanical dogs.

In Cai Jin's eyes, the intelligent mechanical dog he assembled himself is the real mechanical dog, suitable for adults to play with.

At night, Cai Jin updated the products at the outlet.

He added three models of intelligent mechanical dogs.

Basic version of the intelligent mechanical dog: Go 1 intelligent mechanical dog, priced at 10,000.

Upgraded version of intelligent mechanical dog: G0 1Pro intelligent mechanical dog, priced at 20,000.

Deluxe version of smart mechanical dog: G0 1Pro+ smart mechanical dog, priced at 30,000.

From the appearance point of view, the G0 1 intelligent mechanical dogs are all the same, either black or silver, and there is no difference in other sizes. What makes the difference is the hardware and software it carries.

The G0 1Pro intelligent mechanical dog is equipped with 5 pairs of super-sensory systems, which triples the perceptual computing power and adds an app God's perspective.

G0 1Pro+ intelligent mechanical dog, based on the G0 1Pro intelligent mechanical dog, adds a battery, scientific research programming interface, and Python programming interface.

Later, if there is demand, it will be gradually upgraded.

In Cai Jin's mind, the main products in the future will be these entry-level intelligent mechanical dogs, with the product price below 100,000.

Of course, if you accumulate it to a certain level, you will be able to pre-order an intermediate intelligent mechanical dog.
