Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Liang Lu still underestimated the price of the robot. She originally thought that this kind of robot would cost a little more than 10,000. She did not expect it to cost more than 300,000.
Of course, the performance of the robots that cost more than 300,000 was better. However, the robots with lower performance were not cheap either. The cheapest model was 78,000 yuan.
“So expensive!” Liang Lu opened her phone and wallet to check if she had enough money to split the bill.
Tan Rou said, “I don’t have to use any money to buy this robot and Li Li only needs one. Why don’t you guys buy something else?”
Xu Yan said, “Let’s split the cost evenly and Liang Lu could buy something else.”
Liang Lu was a proud person. The more Xu Yan said this, the more unhappy she became. “No, no, 1 have to contribute too. No matter how much money it is, 1’11 split it equally.”
“I really don’t need it.” Tan Rou emphasized, “This robot is my family’s agent. 1 won’t charge you for using a few of them. Moreover, this robot has some other parts. Those parts need to be bought separately. You guys can then buy them !!!”
Lu Qing said, “Let’s listen to Tan Rou. Although our gift is light, our friendship isn’t. 1 don’t think Li Li will blame us.”
The few of them finally discussed it and decided to wait. The mall here was full of display items. The top-notch new robots needed to be transferred to the warehouse.
While waiting for the robot, Liang Lu and the others also walked around the exhibition area and learned a lot about the new robot.
Robot A was a new product of the TL company this year. It received a lot of consumers’ love as soon as it was released, and it easily suppressed the old version of the Meng family’s robot.
Not only was the programming of the new version of the robot more perfect, but it also had many more functions. It was no longer limited to simple sweeping and mopping.
The new robot could water flowers, clean, walk pets, and so on. Its conversational ability was also very strong. It could ask and answer questions to chat with people, and it could also carry out simple teaching.
If they wanted to watch a movie, the robot could also project a movie so that they could experience the atmosphere of the movie theater without going out.
Of course, this was only the most basic function of robot A. It also had a very special ability that could simulate humans.
Robot A could be customized. As long as you were willing to spend money, you could get a robot that was 80% similar to a real person.
There was another function that was suitable for the elderly, which was the monitoring ability of the robot. The children could download the mobile app that came with the robot. If they could understand the situation of the elderly at home through remote monitoring, if the elderly had physical problems, the children could also use the robot to make emergency calls and assist the medical staff to send the elderly to the hospital.
After listening to the salesperson’s introduction, the young people were all tempted. If they could customize such a robot, would any of them actually feel lonely in the future?
After Lu Qing heard this, he immediately took out his bank card and bought a robot with the highest configuration. He also asked the manufacturer to modify the robot to look like him.
Liang Lu gave him a thumbs up. “Young Master Lu, as expected of you. You’re really rich.”
Lu Qing explained, “I’m buying this for my grandfather. I’m going to school in the Capital soon. It’ll probably be a long time before I can come back. I’m afraid he’ll miss me. This robot also has a monitoring function, which is more practical for me.”
Tan Rou and the others lived with their parents and did not have such worries. However, Lu Qing was different. His parents had passed away a long time ago. He had lived with his grandparents since he was very young. After his grandmother passed away, they were the only ones left in their family.
Old Master Lu was already old. Lu Qing was worried about leaving him alone at home. Even if there was a nanny at home, he was still worried.
Initially, he was still debating whether he should let his grandfather go to the capital with him. Now, there was no need to be conflicted. As long as he had this robot, he would be able to observe his grandfather’s condition anytime and anywhere.
“But can this robot really look like me?” Lu Qing was more worried about this. “Will it look ugly?”
Tan Rou promised, “School hunk Lu, you’re so handsome. The robot won’t make you ugly. And I’ll supervise it for you. I guarantee that this robot is even more handsome than you.”
The school hunk of Lu University was a handsome guy. “It doesn’t have to be more handsome than me, about 30% of my handsomeness would be sufficient.”
Liang Lu pursed her lips. “Ha, narcissist..”
