Unmodified version, out of battery, too late to modify]
Unfair competition, Wu Hao shook his head.
This is indeed true, but if you want to sue the other party, I am afraid it will take a lot of effort, and it will also take a long time. Obviously Wu Hao and the others cannot wait for such a long time at present.
In fact, he had already thought about this issue during the previous friction with the fruit. Their rise is bound to touch the interests of some companies, which is inevitable.
It's just that for now, this is still a secret rivalry, and it hasn't been brought to light yet. Once the speed of their expansion threatens these companies, I am afraid they will be unable to help but take action.
Seeing Zhang Jun's worried look, Wu Hao smiled and waved his hand: "You don't have to worry too much, I'm just giving you an example.
The Android system is no better than the OS system. It is open source and open, which means that it is difficult for them to ban us.
If they really want to do this, it will not only damage their reputation, but also affect the experience of using their mobile phones.
More importantly, it’s not that we don’t have countermeasures, it’s just that the cost is a little high. "
At what cost? Zhang Jun asked.
Wu Hao said with a smile: "The reason why these mobile phone manufacturers do not dare to touch us is that they are actually a little afraid of us.
They are afraid that once we are pushed into a hurry, we will probably fall into the arms of other mobile phone manufacturers and directly launch relevant smart voice assistant applications, which will be a huge blow to them.
But in this way, our product sales will suffer a huge blow. In the future, profits can only be made through software services and advertising.
This is why so many mobile phone manufacturers came to seek cooperation, but the reason why I didn't agree is to maintain a balance. "
After hearing his words, Zhang Jun still looked worried: "We can maintain such a balance now, but when our next generation products come out, I'm afraid these mobile phone manufacturers will really be unable to sit still."
Boil a frog in warm water, take your time. We try to slow down the whole process so that their reaction is not too intense. Wu Hao said with a smile.
Zhang Jun nodded. After thinking for a while, he looked up at him and said, "In that case, will we still release this news and new products?"
Hair, of course. You can't always wrong yourself just because you're afraid of irritating the other person. Wu Hao waved his hand.
Originally, Wu Hao and the others planned to release some autumn surprises to the market in September and October this year to repay consumers for their support.
Now that we have achieved this result, we should just put it together as a response to the outside world.
I see. Zhang Jun nodded.
Under Zhang Jun's arrangement, this news was quickly released to the outside world through the official website, Weibo, and smart voice assistant push services.
As of 2:11 this afternoon, the total sales of our smart voice assistants across various platforms have exceeded 15 million units.
“To thank consumers for their support and love for our products, we will fulfill our previous commitments and provide celebrity voice customized services to our users.
We have communicated with ten popular idol stars who are currently popular, and now launch the celebrity voice crowdfunding list.
If you like the voice of a celebrity, join the list now to vote for your favorite celebrity's crowdfunding.
Which star's crowdfunding funds exceed 10 million, we will launch the voice pack of that star. All users who participate in the crowdfunding vote will receive the right to use the celebrity voice pack for one month after the event ends. "
That's right, this is the customized voice service launched by Wu Hao and others. By cooperating with these popular idol stars, they will launch voice packs that simulate the celebrity accents to meet the needs of the majority of users, especially fans.
This is a win-win cooperation. Celebrities can not only expand their influence, but also get a considerable marketing share of their personal voice packages.
As for Wu Hao and others, they also use the influence of these celebrities to further promote their products. And this kind of customized voice package itself is also charged, and users who want to use it must pay the relevant usage fees every month.
Even if the monthly usage fee for each voice package is only 10 yuan, then 15 million users will receive up to 150 million in revenue every month.
Of course, this is just an ideal number. After all, there are still a few people who like this kind of exclusive voice package. And these royalties are not all theirs, there is also the 20-30% share of the celebrities.
So when they went to these celebrity agencies to cooperate, the other parties quickly agreed after learning the details of the cooperation. After all, it is not easy for these economic companies to make a popular idol star famous.
Take advantage of this period of popularity to squeeze out the maximum value from him as much as possible. Compared with advertising endorsements, this kind of sharing cooperation is more attractive.
After all, the fan economy is also an important source of revenue for these people.
And it doesn’t take too much effort. It only requires popular idol stars to wear the intelligent voice assistant specially made by Wu Hao and others for a period of time.
These special intelligent voice assistants will record the celebrities' daily speaking habits and related timbres, and automatically calculate and simulate voices that are 98% similar to the stars' timbres.
In fact, this similarity can be improved, but Wu Hao and the others artificially controlled it at 98% in order to avoid unnecessary problems.
And to ordinary people's ears, there is actually no difference between 100% and 98%. Only professionals with sensitive hearing, or specially trained professionals, and related equipment can identify which voices are real people and which ones are simulated voices.
In addition, all of Wu Hao's voice packages also use this method. The reason for this is mainly to help relevant departments and smart voice assistant users to identify which voices are real people and which ones are simulated voices.
After all, if this kind of intelligent voice system could 100% simulate the voice of a real person, it would be terrible for the world, and the social trust system established by people would probably collapse.
This is something Wu Hao does not want to see, and it is something that society and the country will never allow.
The main reason why crowdfunding is used for paid voting is to prevent trolls from swiping votes. To know how popular these so-called popular idol stars are, I am afraid only they themselves know.
Wu Hao didn't want the people he hired to end up with only a few hundred or a few thousand fans, and the rest were all trolls.
With this kind of paid voting, even if you want to swipe orders, you have to spend money. Although the number of ten million is not much, it is still a lot. It is almost enough for them to pay for their hard work.
Even if there are very few users who order in the end, it will not be a waste of time.
