Black technology: a super empire spanning two worlds

Chapter 340 [After the analysis, competitors are even more desperate]

It is said that one yang can change one's worldview, and these three yangs must change the rhythm of one's worldview.

Over the next two days of the weekend, millions of stock market investors were discussing the booming market this week. Just last week, many stock trading groups were almost deserted, with no one making a sound.

But now the tables have turned, and various chat groups are buzzing with discussions about the market.

Many people who hadn't opened their stock accounts for a long time have started logging back in.

Not only is the capital market booming, but the Liuguang Xingyu lifelike doll product is also maintaining its high popularity.

Over the past week, the first batch of users who ordered the product have received their goods. Some domestic and foreign investment institutions and peers have also purchased Liuguang Xingyu from some users at high prices for disassembly, analysis and research.

……

A domestic humanoid robot company has completed the disassembly and analysis of a recently purchased, high-priced, lifelike humanoid robot, including its wireless charging chair, self-cleaning equipment, and other supporting hardware.

At this moment, a middle-aged man present looked at the company's chief technology officer next to him and asked, "How is it going? Is there any possibility of replicating it?"

The middle-aged man was an investor. He had bought the disassembled Flowing Star Language lifelike robot from a user at a high price and then sent it to this robot company for disassembly, research, and analysis. He was also one of the company's investors.

"Incredible! This is a product that represents the pinnacle of design and manufacturing technology." The company's chief technology officer exclaimed in amazement, then looked at the investor and said:
"This product surpasses German and European products in terms of sophistication and luxury; it surpasses American products in terms of technology and materials; and it surpasses Japanese and Korean products in terms of energy saving, functional design, and price."

After a moment, he added, "The power of this product, which combines the advantages of Europe, magnesium, Japan and South Korea, is to achieve the low-cost application of advanced technology, allowing this product to be sold for 11299 yuan."

"Its main advantages and differences lie in the ease of use of the system, the interoperability and intelligence of the devices, and the further intelligent development of the software system and interface..."

The company's chief technology officer then shook his head with a wry smile and said, "There is no possibility of replicating it. We can't do it. We can't even replicate that intelligent self-cleaning equipment. In the design and manufacturing of humanoid robots, Lingjing Technology has been leading the world by at least 15 years. I really didn't expect them to come up with such a big move."

Upon hearing this conclusion, the investor sighed, "It's unexpected yet reasonable. That's right, if others could really be replicated, Lingjing Technology would have applied for technology patents long ago."

Industry peers and investors know one thing about Lingjing Technology: it rarely applies for technology patents proactively.

This is the confidence that others cannot replicate, or that by the time you replicate it, their new technology iterations will be far ahead, and the technology you replicated will be obsolete.

With such capabilities, anyone with a clear mind would not apply for so-called technology patents, because applying for a patent requires disclosing the technical details.

This company is not the only one currently disassembling the Liuguang Xingyu simulation robot; more than ten domestic and foreign peer institutions are also disassembling and analyzing it, and the conclusions they have reached are basically the same, or even surprisingly consistent.

In the field of humanoid robots, Lingjing Technology has quietly and overwhelmingly taken the lead in the world.

These organizations and peers all surprisingly ignored Likang Technology. In their view, Likang Technology was just a general agent for Liuguang Xingyu products, and all the technology came from Lingjing Technology.

What truly left domestic and international competitors feeling powerless was Xiao Yu's low-cost application of advanced technology in the Flowing Star Language product, which directly shattered the confidence of many competitors, making it impossible for them to compete.

To put it bluntly, how can such an amazing product be sold so cheaply? Compared to competing products from other companies, what competitive advantage does it have?
Now, competitors can only hope that the price of the "Flowing Star Language" product is low, ideally even sold at a loss, to gain market share by incurring losses and quickly seize the market at the expense of losses.

In fact, Xiao Yu's strategy of applying advanced technology at low prices, besides the fact that the product can still generate considerable profits despite its low price, also has another strategic intention: to ensure that the Eastern superpower firmly occupies an absolute dominant position in the industrial manufacturing field.

Preventing other countries from industrializing, especially the old magnesium industry which has become hollowed out, makes it impossible for them to bring industrial manufacturing back and revive it.

The low-cost application of advanced technology has actually been reflected in many fields in this great Eastern country. However, this time, "Flowing Star Language" represents the low-cost application of ultra-cutting advanced technology, taking it to a higher level than other fields.

As soon as the University of Tokyo successfully breaks through in a certain technology field, it immediately lowers the price to rock bottom. Many people don't understand why it can't set a higher price when it has an advantage, and why it always has to sell at rock bottom.

Because this only addresses the symptoms, not the root cause, that's why the price has to be driven down to rock bottom.

Clearly, if the top leadership wants to address the root cause, then they must completely break the rules of the game that the West has established for over a century. To do this, they must dismantle their industrial manufacturing system and destroy their companies.

To put it more bluntly, the goal is to first cripple them, depriving them of their industrial manufacturing capabilities.

Once the world's largest industrial manufacturing nation, the United States now wants to revive its industrial manufacturing. Not to mention the difficulty of going from luxury to frugality, even if the United States has the capability, the University of Tokyo will definitely not allow it to succeed.

If the old magnesium industry continues to exist in the future, it can only become an energy exporter and an agricultural product exporter; in short, it will become a resource-exporting country.

Although the "Flowing Star Language" product utilizes advanced technology at a low price, it's not a loss-making venture. Priced at 11299 yuan, it still generates profit, which is what makes its competitors feel most hopeless.

Even if we remove the 25% subsidy from the government, which is only 3200 RMB per "Flowing Star Language" product, there is still a profit if we include this amount in the cost.

The net profit of a single Liuguang Xingyu robot is 1460 RMB, but what the outside world doesn't know is that the accessories are even more profitable. A single Liuguang Xingyu accessory set, when fully stocked, can generate a net profit of 3600 RMB, with a minimum guaranteed net profit of 2750 RMB. Even based on the minimum guaranteed profit, the total net profit of a complete product set is 4210 RMB. Even after deducting the 3200 RMB subsidy, there's still a net profit of 1010 RMB, resulting in a net profit margin of 5.84%, which is still higher than that of Xiaomi Company.

This product doesn't actually need subsidies. The reason for subsidies is to accelerate its adoption and promote technological equality, allowing most people to enjoy the benefits of technological progress and improve the overall well-being of the population.

With a 25% government subsidy, the net profit margin of this product is at least 24.33% and can reach as high as 26.21% per unit. A net profit margin of 20% already qualifies it as a high-value-added product.

With such an affordable price, the Starry Night product still boasts such high profits, leaving it with virtually no competitors, and even its rivals lack the courage to compete with it.

……

The following weekend morning, the capital market received another piece of good news: the central bank announced improvements to the mortgage interest rate pricing mechanism, which will drive a batch reduction in the interest rates of existing mortgage loans.

This policy not only alleviates people's mortgage burden but also improves overall market liquidity.

It is now basically confirmed that the bear market in the A-shares market has ended, and the market is ushering in a real reversal of its predicament. Investors across the market agree that the market has reversed and a bull market has arrived. Confidence that the A-shares market is more valuable than gold has also returned.

The ChiNext index next door rose 22.71% cumulatively over the five days this week, entering a technical bull market ahead of the main board index.

That afternoon, more good news came: the September manufacturing purchasing managers' index (PMI) was 51.8%, up 2.7 percentage points from the previous month, indicating a recovery in the manufacturing sector.

Policies support and ample liquidity have provided sufficient funding for the market, attracting a surge of global funds. The huge profit-making effect in the market in recent days has attracted a large amount of off-exchange funds, and the offshore RMB exchange rate is also strengthening.

Now, it has become a consensus across the entire market that the bear market in the A-shares market has ended and a bull market has begun, and trend-following funds are rushing into the market in large numbers.

After the weekend, Monday, September 30th, arrived as scheduled, the last trading day before the National Day holiday.

Many investors thought last week's market would be the craziest moment, but the last trading day before the holiday was even crazier. There was no limit to how crazy it got.

At the opening of the market this morning, all three major stock indexes opened sharply higher, and after a pullback of less than half an hour, they continued to rise strongly.

All major industry sectors rose, with software development, semiconductors, IT services, photovoltaics, electronic chemicals, military industry, consumer electronics, as well as newly listed stocks, digital finance and taxation, the Huawi industry chain, the Lingjing Technology industry chain, humanoid robots, and artificial intelligence sectors all experiencing a surge in limit-up stocks.

Many sectors hit their daily limit up, such as the securities sector, where all brokerage stocks except for the two that were suspended from trading hit their daily limit up.

"They've gone mad! They've all gone mad! It's like Wu Zetian living a life of widowhood, or Li Zhi (Li Zhi) losing his rationality!" A veteran stock trader of twenty years was stunned by today's market conditions. He had never seen anything like this in his twenty years of stock trading.

Basically, no one who participates in this market, whether they are speculative investors, retail investors, or institutions, has ever experienced such a super market.

Today, the A-share market broke a series of historical records.

Market close at 15 PM:
The Shanghai Composite Index surged 8.06% to close at 3336.50 points, marking its biggest single-day gain since 2008.

The Shenzhen Component Index surged 10.67% to close at 10529.76 points, marking a new high for single-day gains since the implementation of price fluctuation limits.

The ChiNext index surged 15.36% to close at 2175.09 points, marking its highest single-day gain in history.

The STAR Market 50 Index surged by 17.88%, setting a new record for the largest single-day gain.

The Beijing Stock Exchange 50 Index surged 26.84%, setting a new record for the largest single-day gain.

The combined turnover of the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchanges reached 2.9 trillion yuan, setting a new record for the highest single-day turnover. The turnover exceeded one trillion yuan within 20 minutes of the market opening, breaking the record for the fastest turnover to reach one trillion yuan.

In terms of individual stocks, more than 5302 stocks rose across the market, while only 8 stocks fell, with more than 2700 stocks rising by more than 10%.

Likang Technology, listed on the Beijing Stock Exchange, closed at the daily limit of 30.00%, with its share price closing at 1419.99 yuan. Its total market value reached 6602.95 billion yuan, a record high. The daily turnover was 616 billion yuan, setting a new record for the highest single-day turnover.

Since the "September 24th rally" began, Likang Technology has recorded four limit-up days in five days, with a cumulative increase of +208.96% in five days and a cumulative increase of +275.88% since the bottom in September.

Lingjing Technology, which experienced a sharp drop in price last Friday, also recorded a 20cm limit-up today amidst the frenzied market conditions. Its stock price broke through the 400 yuan mark and closed at 403.31 yuan per share after the market closed. The stock's trading volume today also reached an astronomical figure of 5261 billion yuan, and the company's total market value soared to a record high of 35.00 trillion yuan.

Since the "September 9.24th rally" began, Lingjing Technology has seen a cumulative increase of 57.00% in five days. Although the increase is far less than that of Likang Technology, its size is undeniable. Lingjing Technology's absolute market value has increased by a staggering 12.71 trillion yuan in just five days.
