Black technology: a super empire spanning two worlds

Chapter 309 [What should the price be?]

The conference site.

Reporters focused their cameras on the lifelike humanoid robot beauty on the stage, who stood quietly in a white dress.

On stage, Xiao Yu circled around her, admiring her, his tone softening as he spoke: "Unbelievable, isn't it? To borrow President Zhou's words, this is a miracle of the intersection of technology and art."

Xiao Yu shifted his gaze and faced the audience again: "The most outstanding technology of Flowing Star Language should be the 'Multi-dimensional Sensory Matrix System': tactile, 1024-level pressure feedback; temperature, dynamic temperature control; hearing, spatial sound field simulation; vision, 8K bionic iris."

She then added, "Liuguang Xingyu is connected to Lingjing Technology's most advanced AI intelligent agent. The emotional logic engine system will adjust the interaction mode in real time based on your micro-expressions."

The staff brought two beanbag chairs to the stage, and Xiao Yu immediately gestured for the lifelike humanoid robot beauty to sit down.

Next, witnessed by both the audience in the venue and the viewers in the online live stream, Xiao Yu began to demonstrate an impromptu conversation with her. Her voice had just the right amount of breathing, and her body language changed with the topic of conversation.

When talking about her age, her fingers unconsciously twisted the hem of her skirt; when discussing technological ethics, she leaned back slightly, maintaining a social distance of 45cm.

The audience was amazed, saying that this lifelike humanoid robot looked exactly like a real human, except that it wasn't human. Moreover, because its appearance and figure were so perfect, it didn't exhibit any of the so-called uncanny valley effect.

The lifelike humanoid robot sat quietly and briefly demonstrated the communication. Xiao Yu then stood up, took a few steps, and addressed the audience, saying, "The feedback from our conversation just now was not programmed, but rather the result of the AI ​​agent's self-learning."

“Each ‘Starry Night Whisper’ will create a unique ‘emotional profile,’ recording your body temperature changes, muscle tension, and even…” At this point, Xiao Yu lowered his head and pondered for a moment before continuing, “It can even record the frequency of nerve impulses during orgasm…”

Those present couldn't help but laugh, especially some of the gentlemen, many of whom exclaimed in their hearts: "Wow, good heavens!"
At this moment, Xiao Yu pressed a small remote control, and the stage screen switched to a set of data. Xiao Yu said again: "This is a data model of a man. It shows that he needs a gentle hug when his stress index is 68.5%, and prefers a certain rhythm when his dopamine peaks."

The audience was greatly impressed, especially some industry professionals in the field of humanoid robots. They thought that the technology used in this lifelike doll product had been introduced, but they did not expect that there were so many new technologies.

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "She understands your body better than you do, and your subconscious better than a psychologist."

Viewers today have the illusion that this year is 2042, not 2024. Has technology really advanced to this extent?
Xiao Yu added, "Is this a sex-themed humanoid robot? No, we have redefined companionship. Medical data shows that 2.5 million people worldwide are unable to form intimate relationships due to social phobia, and 47% of people with frigidity need non-invasive treatment. Flowing Star Language will be an excellent solution."

Xiao Yu paced back and forth on the stage for a moment, then continued, "So, how can user privacy be protected?"

Xiao Yu raised a question that many people were very interested in, and he answered methodically: "All the data in Liuguang Xingyu is encrypted through blockchain and stored on a local security chip. We have even designed a 'data self-destruct' program. If a user enables this function, the system will automatically format all data after 30 consecutive days of inactivity. This physical, irreversible destruction is more thorough than deletion."

Many people were immediately impressed, especially some consumers who were very satisfied. At this point in the press conference, all the consumers were extremely excited about the product.

However, the price has not yet been announced. Anyone who can afford it would want to buy one. But many people think that this product is unaffordable for the wealthy, and the price will definitely deter the average consumer.

"Will she replace human partners?" Xiao Yu posed another question, one that, without a doubt, would become one of the hottest topics online after the product launch.

Finally, Xiao Yu shook his head and said, "Quite the opposite. We've done experiments, and people who use 'Flowing Star Language' have 43% higher communication efficiency in real intimate relationships. It's a mirror that lets you see your own needs; it's a bridge that teaches you how to love."

Xiao Yu glanced at the lifelike humanoid robot beauty sitting quietly on the beanbag chair. When she saw Xiao Yu looking at her, she responded with a gentle smile.

At this moment, Xiao Yu looked into her eyes and slowly said, "Don't forget, every pore on her body, every piece of code, is a condensation of humanity's imagination of perfect companionship. And imagination is the most brilliant light in the human heart."

Backstage, Mr. Zhou looked on with a keen eye and a desire to learn, and couldn't help but mutter to himself, "The expert's explanation is really good. He managed to give a sex toy a high-class cultural connotation and really got the audience excited."

Mr. Zhou felt that if he were hosting the press conference, it definitely wouldn't be as smooth.

Meanwhile, Xiao Yu on stage calmly said, "The first product launched by Liuguang Xingyu will have 12 skin tones to choose from and a customization system with 37 cultural backgrounds for users to choose from. She will enter every lonely room."

Finally, Xiao Yu pressed the small remote control again, and the large screen on the stage displayed the core hardware and software parameters of the Flowing Star Language product.

Xiao Yu turned to look at the big screen: "Let's take a look. Medical-grade silicone, aerospace carbon fiber, customized AI chipset, intelligent temperature control, multi-dimensional sensory matrix, molecular-level micro-sculpting, invisible injection molding, military-grade waterproof encapsulation, medical-grade hygiene, blockchain encryption, IP67 protection, 244 degrees of freedom joints, dynamic physiological simulation, pressure feedback system."

Turning his gaze away, Xiao Yu looked at the audience: "Flowing Star Language is not only a combination of materials, technology and art, but also a revolutionary force in sensory experience. Its innovative multi-dimensional sensory matrix and advanced AI self-learning algorithm enable personalized interactive experiences for each individual. Every material selection and every structural design has been verified by both ergonomics and sensory neuroscience."

After a pause, Xiao Yu asked succinctly, "So, what should the price of this product be?"

At this moment, everyone's spirits lifted. The ultimate price of this groundbreaking humanoid robot product with such high technological content was of great concern to everyone, especially consumers.

One viewer watching the live stream perked up and said, "Here it comes! They're finally going to announce the price. Just say it so I can give up."
