I can see the commodity price curve

Hearing Zhan Susu's words, Zhang Yue smiled:

“Yes, the other party does have tens of thousands of stores in the United States, but the IQ of their robots is the same.

We only need to figure out one. The others cannot be said to be similar, we can only say they are exactly the same.

I know what you mean. After all, time waits for no one. The longer we spend here, the greater the possibility of accidents.

Actually, there is no need to worry. I originally thought these robots were very powerful.

After all, their IQ is really high.

But after getting in touch with him, I found that the other party’s so-called high IQ was largely false propaganda.

They just have stronger logical thinking, but their emotional intelligence is not even a little bit lower than ours.

Although the United States has always been criticized, it is the most developed country in the world after all, and there are still many fun places.

Let's go, let's take advantage of this time to have some fun. We can't come here for nothing, right?"

After saying that, he grabbed Zhan Susu and left.

Zhan Susu wanted to stop him, but after listening to him, she chose to follow him.

Three days later, when Zhang Yue and Zhan Susu were watching a movie at Disney, a phone call came in from a clerk at the October Food Factory branch.

"Boss Zhang, the other party's robot is moving."

Zhang Yue smiled and said, "Really? What did they do?"

The clerk said, "They came over to find out what was going on."

Zhang Yue asked: "What happens next?"

The clerk shook his head: "I don't know, I called you right after they left."

Zhang Yue smiled slightly: "You are too impatient. Pay attention to their subsequent actions and report back when there is any situation."

After that, he hung up the phone.

The clerk felt helpless. He had been working diligently here for several days to help the other party gather information, but from what Zhang Yue said, it seemed that he didn't care about it at all.

However, her helplessness only lasted for a moment, and she soon turned her attention back to the other side of the road.

An hour later, the clerk was surprised to find that the two robots also imitated him and started activities, and the content of the activities was exactly the same as his own.

After the event, many guests were immediately attracted.

As for the reason, first, the fried chicken sold by the other party is indeed cheaper than ours.

Second, and most importantly, 99% of the people who came to participate in the challenge failed, and only a few of them who were super good eaters succeeded.

She reported the news to Zhang Yue again.

Zhang Yue asked after hearing this: "And then?"

The clerk was stunned: "And then there was nothing else."

Zhang Yue was helpless: "Didn't I ask you to observe the follow-up? Can you observe everything before reporting to me?"

The clerk was a little confused, thinking that he had observed it very clearly.

But since Zhang Yue said so, she couldn't refute it, so she could only continue to nod: "Okay, I will pay attention to it."

Zhang Yue's side.

Zhan Susu looked at him helplessly: "I think you are too careless. The other party has already taken action. Shouldn't you go back and take a look?"

Zhang Yue smiled slightly and asked, "Do you know how Zhuge Liang died?"

Zhan Susu shook her head: "I'm not Zhuge Liang, how would I know?"

Zhang Yue smiled and said, "It's very simple. He died of exhaustion. The reason is that after Liu Bei's death, he had to do everything himself.

Isn’t this tiring?

Take the situation of the two robots for example. We don't need to go there directly. We just need to listen to the clerk's report and get the direction.

Let’s go. I heard there’s a nice hot spring here. Let’s go and soak in it.”

Another two hours passed before the clerk finally called.

Zhang Yue smiled and asked, "What's going on over there?"

The clerk's tone was a little strange. She said to Zhang Yue: "The other party cancelled the event, and most of the customers came back."

Without waiting for Zhang Yue to speak, Zhan Susu asked curiously, "Why did they cancel the event?"

The clerk said: "When the two robots learned about our event, they immediately followed suit, and then all the customers went to them to challenge us, and they all succeeded without exception.

So the two robots sold more than sixty fried chickens today, but they were all given away for free and they didn’t make a penny.

They realized something was wrong and cancelled the event.”

Zhan Susu stared at Zhang Yue in amazement. Seeing the smile on his face, she couldn't help but ask, "So everything was as you expected?"

Zhang Yue nodded: "How about it, am I awesome?"

Zhan Susu was silent for a long time. She gave Zhang Yue a thumbs up and said, "Great."

Zhang Yue said: "Okay, since this method is effective, let's notify all the branches in the United States and ask them to implement it according to our method."

Zhan Susu nodded and started sending messages.

After a moment, she breathed a sigh of relief: "Done."

Then he asked Zhang Yue: "What should we do next?"

Zhang Yue said calmly: "Of course we'll continue playing. It's only been a few days. Come on, I'll take you to a better place."

Beautiful country, Silicon Valley.

Benjamin was sitting in the office, drinking tea leisurely.

Ivans came over and said to Benjamin with a smile, "So leisurely?"

Benjamin was a little proud: "Of course I am relaxed. The research and development of the super artificial intelligence robot has come to an end.

I haven’t planned my next project yet, and of course, I don’t plan to do it in the short term.

I was almost exhausted from doing research some time ago, so I decided to take a year off before doing other things. "

Ivans nodded: "You really should have a good rest. But before you rest, I think you should be busy for a few more days."

Benjamin was stunned. “Busy? No, no, no, my brother, I really don’t want to do anything right now. Even if the sky falls, don’t look for me. Do you understand?”

Ivans looked at him: "Really? What if something goes wrong with the super robot you're researching?"

Benjamin laughed: "How is it possible that something happened to the robot I was researching?

To tell you the truth, although those robots look very smart, I have already set up a destruction mechanism for them.

In other words, even if they don't obey, as long as I activate the destruction mechanism, they will immediately freeze.

What’s more, those robots are very smart and there will be no problems for at least ten years.”

Ivins shook his head: "You misunderstood, that's not what I meant."

Benjamin was stunned: "If it's not this, then what is it?"

Ivins said, "Do you remember that after your research was successful, the first thing you did was to have your super robot crack the delicious recipe of the October Food Factory?"

Benjamin nodded, “That’s right. The other party’s unique recipe is so delicious that I couldn’t forget it after just one try.

Originally, I would have admired them for being able to do this and would not have made things difficult for them. But there was nothing I could do, since they were a Chinese company.

The rivalry between our country and China has never stopped. As a patriot, I must do my best to help.

So don’t thank me.”

However, Ivans looked at him strangely:
"My brother, can you please not be so confident? Yes, you did crack the formula of the Juewei series and opened 10,000 stores specifically for it, but now these 10,000 stores are about to go bankrupt."

Benjamin was stunned. “What did you say? These 10,000 stores are going bankrupt immediately? How is that possible?”

It's no wonder that he was nervous. Although Benjamin raised a lot of money to open these 10,000 stores, he also invested all his savings.

In his opinion, this is definitely a good business with no loss. The Juewei series is delicious, and the prices in his own store are cheap. It would be unreasonable not to make money.

He immediately asked, "What happened?"

Ivans shook his head: "You should go and see the details yourself, I won't tell you."

Benjamin glanced at him, turned around and left quickly.

Two hours later, when he figured out what was going on, he was completely dumbfounded.

I developed a super intelligent robot with great difficulty, but the other party just held a promotion and defeated me without any chance to fight back?

After thinking about it, he went to the October Food Factory branch to launch a challenge. As expected, he failed and returned with the uneaten chicken.

Then he handed the fried chicken to the robot: "Help me analyze the ingredients inside."

The robot looked at Benjamin strangely and said, "Isn't this just a fried chicken? What is there to analyze?"

Benjamin glanced at him and said, "Really? Then let me ask you, why is it that every time consumers go to their store to challenge, they are likely to fail, but when we try to imitate them, we are always successful?"

Sparks immediately appeared in the robot's eyes, and after a long while, it uttered a voice without any emotion: "This is illogical and cannot be calculated."

Benjamin said helplessly: "If I ask you to analyze the ingredients of this chicken, just analyze it carefully. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"

The robot then nodded, took the chicken and began to scan it with its eyes.

After a moment, it raised its head and said to Benjamin, "The ingredients of this chicken are no different from ordinary fried chicken."

Benjamin was surprised: “Are you sure?”

The robot nodded. "Very sure. The only strange thing is that this chicken seems to have some vegetable protein in it."

“Plant protein?”

Benjamin was stunned. “What is that? Is it soybeans? But even if they added soybeans in it, a chicken should be able to finish it.”

The robot was stunned for a moment and said, "This is illogical and cannot be calculated."

Benjamin was a little annoyed: "Calculate, calculate, you only know how to calculate every day, can't you be a little smarter?"

The robot said: "Of course it's okay to be smart. I can optimize the calculation method and reduce the original 643 steps to 86 steps.

Please praise me quickly, this is definitely a landmark creation.”

Benjamin was too lazy to pay attention to the other party and turned around and left quickly.

When he saw Ivans again, his previous calmness and confidence were gone.

Ivins asked, "Why, you didn't find the reason?"

Benjamin shook his head. “The robot couldn’t analyze the ingredients in the other chicken. It only said that it contained some plant protein, but the rest was similar to regular fried chicken.”

Ivins: What are you going to do next?

Benjamin spread his hands: "What else can I do? Just keep optimizing. What I'm worried about now is how to explain this to the shareholders."

Shaking his head, he dove into the lab.

Zhang Yue and Zhan Susu have almost finished playing.

After he relearned the fried chicken market, his expression was a little strange: "Why didn't the other party react at all?"

Zhan Susu thought for a moment and said, “Maybe they are still investigating the cause.

After all, your move was a bit unethical, and the inventor of the other super-intelligent robot is a gentleman, so it's normal that he is not your opponent."

Zhang Yue was unhappy: "What do you mean? I just used the most common method.

Forget it, since the other party has no power to defend themselves, let's just go back to our country."

Zhan Susu nodded. She and Zhang Yue came here this time with the determination to fight to the death, but they didn't expect that the problem would be solved so easily.

However, just as the two were about to buy tickets to return home, the clerk called again.

"Boss Zhang, it seems the other party has cracked our secret."

Zhang Yue was stunned: "Did the other party crack it?"

The clerk said, “That’s right.”

Zhang Yue: "Their reaction is too slow. They only discovered it now."

When the clerk heard what he said, he didn't know what to say for a moment.

Thanks to Zhang Yue’s idea, the October Food Factory’s branch in the United States has regained its vitality.

The clerk thought that this situation would continue forever, but he didn't expect that less than a month later, Boss Zhang's method was discovered by the other party.

She was getting anxious, but Boss Zhang said the other party was too stupid.

Is this what it means to find joy in suffering?
After thinking for a while, she asked Zhang Yue: "What should we do next?"

Zhang Yue thought for a moment and said, "Wait a minute, let me meet their robot again and see what's going on."

It turned out that just a day ago, Benjamin was still in his office debugging the super intelligent robot.

Then Ivins found him again and put a piece of information in front of Benjamin.

"The matter has been clarified. The other party mixed something into the fried chicken. This is also the fundamental reason why those customers failed in the challenge."

Benjamin's face was full of curiosity: "What did the other party mix into the fried chicken?"

Ivins: "They mixed it with biscuit powder."

Benjamin was stunned: "What? Compressed biscuits?"

He didn't know what to say for a moment.

The origin of compressed biscuits is military use. Generally, soldiers only need to carry a few compressed biscuits when performing military missions. They can eat one when they are hungry and then drink water to feel full immediately.

As for the reason, these compressed biscuits contain a lot of high-calorie foods.

Benjamin never expected that the other party would put this thing in the fried chicken.

Those who challenge themselves to eat fried chicken, no matter how big their appetite is, they won’t be able to eat much if they put two compressed biscuits in it.

"Oh." Ivans looked at him, "What should we do now?"

Benjamin was silent. He understood what the other party meant.

Now that the matter has been thoroughly clarified, I face two choices.

The first is to make this matter public so that everyone knows the conspiracy of the October Food Factory branch.

The second is to let your own store follow suit. Each option has its pros and cons.

After a long silence, Benjamin finally said, "Since they added compressed biscuit powder into it, let's add it in too!"

Although the first method can ruin the reputation of October Food Factory and damage their credibility, it is equivalent to hurting the enemy by a thousand and hurting oneself by eight hundred.

If the fried chicken shop of October Food Factory has compressed biscuit powder, will consumers suspect that our fried chicken also has similar powder?
And even if this matter is made public, will October Food Factory admit it?
not necessarily.

Moreover, it is possible that the two sides might engage in a war of public opinion, which would be laborious, thankless and tiring.

But imitating others is different.

With the price advantage, the other party is no match for us at all.

Since victory is guaranteed, there is no need to deliberately cause trouble. (End of this chapter)
