Mingyao argued logically: "I may not be as smart as you, or as educated as you, but that doesn't mean I'm stupid."
"Okay, okay, you're not stupid."
"So tell me, what problem did you find?"
She looked at Mingyao with great interest, waiting to see her make a fool of herself.
Mingyao glanced at Pei Siyu out of the corner of her eye.
He stood at the doorway, his expression obscured.
She fixed her gaze on the screen and said in a serious tone, "The idea of a butler-type AI robot is good. If it is successfully developed, it will have a certain market."
"But butler-type AI robots are too common."
"With less than six months until the technology exhibition, it is too difficult to develop a high-end butler-type AI robot that meets the needs of the public within six months."
“Not only is the research and development cost huge, but it is also difficult to gain attention among similar robots.”
"Therefore, I think it's a waste of resources to develop butler-type AI robots now. We should spend more time thinking about other types of robots."
"In the first round of technology exhibitions, if you want to attract investment, you need to capture the attention of the market and investors."
"Unless the butler robot is made to the highest level, it will be a waste of effort."
Mingyao spoke with neither arrogance nor servility, and her analysis was very reasonable.
Colleagues involved in the research and development also considered this issue, but time was too tight, and they were not given much time to consider new solutions.
Furthermore, butler-type robots are the safest and easiest track to enter.
Xu Sitian was stunned for a moment, then was convinced by Mingyao's words.
There will definitely be a lot of butler robots at the technology exhibition six months from now, and her goal is to make high-end butler robots that can crush all others.
She snorted and chuckled, "Su Xueya, you do have some brains."
"But you're underestimating everyone's abilities."
Xu Sitian said firmly, "Everyone who can be in this conference room is a top-notch R&D person who ranks among the best in the world."
"What makes you think that defective products developed by other companies can compare to the robots developed by our group?"
She was confident enough to say those words.
Mingyao nodded; this was undeniable.
but……
"Ms. Xu and everyone here are excellent, but this technology exhibition has also attracted the attention of companies from the United States and the United Kingdom."
"No matter how strong our company is, we are still far behind the technology of countries M and W."
"Moreover, they have much more funds than we do. Just these two points alone mean we've already lost half the battle."
Foreign companies from countries M and W have long coveted the domestic market, and they will certainly use every means possible to compete for investment opportunities at this technology exhibition.
The company that won first place at the technology exhibition in my past life had investment from a company in country W.
Mingyao's words completely convinced everyone present.
Mingyao continued without changing her expression: "This technology exhibition is not only a competition among domestic companies, but also among foreign companies."
"We cannot let our guard down."
Everyone present fell silent.
Xu Sitian had considered the possibility of companies from W and M countries participating, but considering that this was in China, they wouldn't come openly.
"Aren't you being too pessimistic?"
Mingyao glanced at her and said indifferently, "Miss Xu, have you forgotten your family's company?"
Xu Sitian was startled and stared at Ming Yao, "What do you mean?"
"It doesn't mean anything. I know that the Xu Group and Haichang Technology Company are about to cooperate. Behind the Xu Group is a consortium of companies from the United States."
Before she could finish speaking, Xu Sitian retorted impatiently, "Impossible!"
"You don't understand anything!"
The Xu Group was experiencing difficulties operating in Country M, and only through its relationship with Wei Ning did it decide to return to China to develop its business.
The reason for the Xu Group's operational difficulties is the combined suppression by the M country companies.
They used every despicable means possible to squeeze the Xu Group's market share.
Due to their repeated dirty tricks and cunning business tactics, the Xu Group was forced to withdraw from the market.
How could the Xu Group, with such a background, have a conglomerate in the United States?
If it even existed, things wouldn't have escalated to this point!
Despite Xu Sitian's questioning, Mingyao did not change her mind.
"Ms. Xu, it seems you don't know much about your family's company."
In their previous life, the Xu Group was forced to return to China due to suppression from foreign companies.
They thought that this would allow them to develop with peace of mind and grow bigger and stronger.
Unfortunately, the Xu family underestimated the greed of the foreign company.
Foreign companies not only want to destroy the Xu Group, but also want to steal its cutting-edge technology.
The company in Country M painstakingly managed the operation and, in collaboration with Haichang Technology Company, poached the cutting-edge technology from the Xu Group, causing the Xu Group to collapse completely and become a sycophant dependent on Haichang Technology Company.
Mingyao knew these things because she saw the letter left by the head of the Xu family when he committed suicide in her previous life. The letter contained a lengthy accusation against Haichang Technology Company for its despicable methods.
At that time, Mingyao and Pei Siyu had a conflict due to a misunderstanding. The hotel she stayed at was the place where the head of the Xu family, Xu Sitian's father, committed suicide.
She didn't pay much attention at the time until she saw the news.
It was because of this incident that Pei Siyu took her back.
Xu Sitian was furious; she didn't know much about the Xu Group.
"Ms. Xu, I'm just giving you a friendly reminder since we're colleagues."
Mingyao approached Xu Sitian and said, slowly and deliberately, "Be careful of the companies you'll be working with later."
She was still at the Haichang branch, and dared not openly criticize the branch, so she could only offer subtle reminders.
Xu Sitian showed no appreciation whatsoever, instead sneering, "Su Xueya, don't you know your own limitations? How dare you try to tell me what to do?"
"I'm just kindly reminding you that the fate of the Xu Group has nothing to do with me."
"you!"
Xu Sitian was furious when Pei Siyu pushed open the door and entered, interrupting their argument.
He looked at Mingyao with a complicated expression and asked, "What are your thoughts?"
Mingyao feigned surprise and covered her mouth: "President Pei, when did you arrive?"
Xu Sitian was startled, and her expression immediately froze.
So Pei Siyu had been standing at the door the whole time? Did he see her arguing with Mingyao just now?
She glanced at Pei Siyu out of the corner of her eye, her heart pounding, and found that his attention was entirely on Mingyao.
It's Mingyao again!
Xu Sitian was driven mad with jealousy, but dared not show it, and could only swallow her anger.
Pei Siyu stared intently at Ming Yao with his penetrating eyes. "Answer me."
"President Pei, I... I'm a complete novice."
"I'm not very good at giving advice."
Mingyao fidgeted, looking terrified.
Pei Siyu's tone softened slightly, "Your analysis is very good. I'd like to hear your thoughts."
Other colleagues also cast admiring glances at Mingyao. She took a deep breath and said, "The purpose of a technology exhibition is to be innovative, eye-catching, and practical."
"It's too difficult to innovate and stand out at technology exhibitions when it comes to butler-type AI robots and their market penetration."
Pei Siyu closed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Get to the point."
