After all, if the brain-computer interface chip is too expensive, they can't afford it.
In such a situation, how could they not be fully alert?
Facing the intense gazes of the people, Lin Feng smiled and gave an answer that shocked everyone.
“The current manufacturing cost of the brain-computer interface chip is still quite high, and finally there is the cost of the brain-computer interface external device and the surgery and hospitalization fees for implanting the brain-computer interface.
Ultimately, if normal product marketing strategies are followed, approximately 80% of the world's people will not be able to afford the series of costs required to implant a second-generation brain-computer interface.
After all, many people are not used to saving money, and they naturally cannot take out several months or more than a year's salary at once.
Therefore, Xingtu Technology will adopt a product marketing strategy similar to that of the game console industry.
That is to say, the price of the second-generation brain-computer interface chip will be reduced to a level that is several times cheaper than the cost price, and then the company can turn losses into profits and earn profits by relying on collecting platform fees.”
After hearing Lin Feng's words, the people at the scene, including the tens of millions of netizens in the live broadcast room, were all stunned for a moment, and then a flash of ecstasy flashed across their faces.
Because Xingtu Technology adopts this marketing model, which is simply their favorite.
After all, the fact is just as Lin Feng said, many of them actually don’t like to save money, and many of them are even heavily in debt.
So in this situation, if you ask them to spend several months or more than a year's salary to purchase and implant the second-generation brain-computer interface chip, they really can't afford it.
At this time, Xingtu Technology adopted the marketing model of game consoles. The equipment charges were quite cheap, and subsequent profits mainly relied on collecting platform fees. This simply solved their problems.
It can be said that even if people are heavily in debt, if the total amount of expenditure is not large, they can grit their teeth and borrow a few months' salary to implant the second-generation brain-computer interface chip in themselves.
However, there is still a problem that has not been solved, and that is that Lin Feng still has not revealed the price amount.
So they all stared at Lin Feng intently, waiting for him to solve the puzzle, and Lin Feng did not keep people waiting for long.
He just waved his hand lightly, and a price list of brain-computer interface chips appeared on the projection screen behind him.
The price naturally varies according to different countries and ages, and the highest and lowest prices vary greatly.
For minors aged 6 to 18 in Daxia, the price of the second-generation brain-computer interface chip is 1000 Xia yuan.
It will then increase by RMB 1000 for every ten years of age, capped at RMB 60 for a 6000-year-old.
As for places like Africa or India where human lives are worthless, their second-generation brain-computer interface chips are priced as high as 9999 yuan.
“The price of our brain-computer interface chips is not uniform, but is priced according to the national conditions of different countries and different ages.
For example, in India or Africa, the lives of the people in their countries are worthless, the economy is backward, and the people's income is very low.
If we sell at the price for minors, we will incur huge losses and create large amounts of bad debts, so we can only sell at cost price.
The same is true for people over 60 years old in Daxia and other countries with stable order. Our second-generation brain-computer interface chips are sold at a loss.
If nothing unexpected happens, these people over 60 will not live for more than ten or twenty years.
With just a dozen or less than twenty years, the hope of making back the cost is slim, let alone continuing to make profits.
Therefore, we can only increase the price of the second-generation brain-computer interface chip, reduce the company's loss range, and maintain the overall profit at a profit rather than a huge loss. "Hearing Lin Feng's words, people couldn't help but fall into deep thought, and then nodded gently to show their approval.
Because this is indeed the case. The second-generation brain-computer interface chip is so expensive, and the sales model it adopts is still the same as that of game consoles, which sells at a loss.
Considering that some people's life span is indeed very short, even the personal safety of people in many areas is difficult to guarantee and they may die accidentally at any time.
It is indeed reasonable for Xingtu Technology to adopt such a flexible pricing strategy.
At least after adopting this marketing strategy, most of them can afford the second-generation brain-computer interface chips.
Otherwise, if a global unified price is adopted, it will be as Lin Feng said, and it is estimated that only 20% of people in the world can afford the second-generation brain-computer interface chip.
After all, this is just the price of the brain-computer interface chip. There is also the cost of the external brain-computer interface device, the implantation fee and the hospitalization fee.
All of these added up are not a small number, but a number that is enough to give a family a headache or even make them feel desperate.
On the contrary, adopting this flexible pricing strategy is actually the fairest marketing strategy that most people can afford.
"We just introduced the price of the second-generation brain-computer interface chip. Next we will reveal the price of the external brain-computer interface device."
When Lin Feng finished speaking, the price of the second-generation brain-computer interface external device appeared on the projection screen behind him.
This price is not expensive compared to brain-computer interface chips, and is even cheaper than many mobile phones.
Because the cheapest one only costs 1000 yuan, and the most expensive one costs tens of thousands of yuan, which is obviously for rich people.
In general, the main differences between them are different appearance styles, different degrees of radiation isolation, different standby times, whether there are cameras, etc. The differences in other basic functions are not significant.
Seeing this, people nodded slightly, expressing their satisfaction.
Because this price meets their psychological expectations, they think it is acceptable.
Then Lin Feng continued with a smile:
“The next thing is the cost of implanting the second-generation brain-computer interface chip.
The cost is actually not very expensive, because the longest hospitalization is only one week, and you can be discharged on the fourth day at the earliest.
How much is the implant surgery cost?
Our second-generation brain-computer interface chip implants all use the form of artificial intelligence Jarvis + surgical robot + auxiliary robotic arm.
Human doctors mainly serve as a precautionary measure and do not personally participate in the surgical process.
Therefore, the cost of our second-generation brain-computer interface implant surgery can be reduced to a very low level.”
After hearing Lin Feng's words, the eyes of the people at the scene and in the live broadcast room all lit up.
Unexpectedly, Xingtu Technology has developed a surgical robot and a matching robotic arm to greatly reduce surgical costs.
This Xingtu Technology is simply amazing. It really thinks of what they think and is concerned about what they are concerned about. (End of this chapter)
