Global monopoly of technology

Chapter 815 [There is no reason to spend other people's money]

With the passage of time, the virus of this global pandemic has become the most mentioned news by major media nowadays, and the WHO has officially named it "Sequoia" virus.

Sequoia Capital immediately jumped out angrily and expressed its opposition to the use of this name. The negative impact was too bad.

However, under the continuous follow-up reports of major media, the name spread all over the world once it was announced, and now everyone calls it "Sequoia virus."

It is true that people are sitting at home, the pot comes from the sky, and they are shot while lying down.

However, the news that people are most concerned about is the situation in Los Angeles. At present, the city is already in a semi-paralyzed state. After experiencing an early round of turmoil, such a bustling metropolis is as empty as a dead city. general.

As long as anyone with a little brain dare not go out now, the Sequoia virus is extremely visually impactful, and coupled with its extremely contagious power, in a sense, it is more fearful than zombies.

The zombies in the film are walking corpses, without the desire to eat instinctively.

The people infected with the Sequoia virus are all sober-minded, and there are many desperate people who hold their backs to death. The evil of human nature is the most terrible.

After all, human nature is selfish and unpredictable.

At present, social security in Los Angeles is declining rapidly, the crime rate is soaring, and the order in the wealthy district is obviously much better. However, in the face of this kind of crisis, most ordinary people in the local area basically rely on self-help, so large-scale zeros will break out. Yuan buy carnival.

The current situation in Los Angeles is that if you break into a stranger's home without authorization, there is a 90% probability that the owner of the house will be sifted with a spray gun.

But what is more serious is that Los Angeles has not been sealed off, and there are still a large number of people leaving the city.

Right now, North American people will find that North American people in other cities have already started the "survival online" mode through the dynamics shared by the major social media platforms under the Bluestar Technology Group.

On the contrary, some survivalist clubs are not happy, and even excited, preparing weapons and hoarding food and water are just like Hollywood disaster movies.

It is worth mentioning that the people of Magnesium have already dug some refuge facilities. As early as the Cold War era, they prepared a large number of underground warehouses and built some shelters for survival in response to nuclear war.

In their expectation, once the situation is bad or out of control, the city will soon run out of water and food, and it will be time to start the "survival mode".

As a result, people in other cities in North America have also followed the trend to rush into supermarkets to frantically buy all kinds of goods needed for survival. Fortunately, they are only rushing to buy, or they have to pay, instead of forcing zero dollars like Los Angeles.

This sentiment also spread to Europe.

The chaos in Europe and the United States has seen the domestic people who eat melons dumbfounded, and there are also many people in China who follow the trend and hoard large amounts of canned food and the like, which has caused the prices of large consumer products, especially food products, to rise sharply. Obviously, it is necessary to say no It is impossible to be affected.

But it is not as crazy as the old American side. The country responded promptly and fully controlled the flow of inbound people. Anyone who enters the country from overseas must be quarantined for half a month. The goods must also be fully disinfected before they can be docked at the port and transported by air. The same is true.

The determination to keep the Sequoia virus out of the country is extremely firm, and would rather lose some economic growth.

So far, there have been no cases of sequoia virus infection in several countries in the Asian Confucian cultural circle.

"What are you talking about? I want to recall my Dabai? Export to Europe? Have you considered my loss?" In a rental apartment, the courier brother Xu Lecheng is currently communicating with the customer service of the Blue Coast company. .

The sweet voice of the customer service lady immediately came from the phone: "This is Mr. Xu, if you agree, the Blue Coast company will give you corresponding compensation, first of all, starting from the day your Dabai robot is recalled, It will be compensated twice of the average daily salary last month. The compensation will not end until the new Dabai robot is delivered to you again. The compensation will also be entrusted to Hongyun Logistics to remit it to your account on a monthly basis. ."

Xu Lecheng was stunned. After reacting, he immediately asked: "Do you mean that you can compensate for double the salary every day? And will you give me a brand new Dabai robot?"

The customer service lady smiled and replied: "Yes, Mr. Xu."

"Emmm..." Xu Lecheng thought for a moment and then said: "It's not impossible to recall, but I still have one condition."

Customer service: "Please tell me."

Xu Lecheng said: "I have been together with Dabai Liu Qi for so long, it is considered to have feelings. I like its current personality. Can you save its personality data and transfer it to the new Dabai robot?"

The so-called "personality" is that after the Dabai robot is activated, a large amount of data is formed through communication with the owner, and it is more and more abundant. Simply put, it is personalization.

The customer service quickly replied: “Yes, Mr. Xu, the Blue Coast has already considered this user’s demand. We will save this data in the cloud for free, and clean the recalled Dabai robot to ensure the user’s privacy. After taking over the new Dabai robot, you can download the original data stream."

Xu Lecheng said on the spot: "Okay, then I agree."

Customer Service: "Thank you for your understanding and support of our company."

If you get a double salary for nothing, you can get a new confession. This sale is made for blood. When confession is recalled, you will have to return to the old business for a while. This is another salary, which is equivalent to three times your salary. The double salary compensation can be 32,000 yuan a month, plus the monthly salary of my manual supplementary job, roughly 40,000 yuan in a month, it does not matter if the return is sufficient and rich, even if it is a little bitter.

Xu Lecheng quickly asked, "How long will it take to get the new Dabai robot?"

The customer service replied: "The time is uncertain, but the Côte d’Azur has given a time frame. A new Dabai robot will be delivered to you at the latest 16 months later. This will be included in the recall agreement, so you Don’t worry, if there is a breach of contract, additional liquidated damages will be paid to you."

Xu Lecheng smiled and said, "I don't worry about that. I still trust your group like this."

Customer Service: "Thank you very much for your trust and praise for our company."

That said, but there must be a clear clause in the agreement. If there is no such additional clause in the clause of the recall agreement, he would still not agree to it.

At this time, Xu Lecheng asked again: "By the way, what should I do? When will you call it back?"

The customer service replied: "We have entrusted Hongyun logistics company to collect it. At that time, our company will send someone to Hongyun Logistics to recall and sign the terms of the recall agreement with you. The template of the terms of the agreement will be sent to your email address in three minutes. You can preview it first, and if you have any questions, you can call the official customer service of the French Riviera."

Xu Lecheng: "Ou Kee has this, so be it."

Customer Service: "Good Mr. Xu, I wish you a happy life."

After finishing the call, Xu Lecheng said to himself: "The customer service lady with such a sweet voice is hard to refuse. I just don't know if it will be an AI customer service."

When thinking about this, Xu Lecheng couldn't help but shudder wit.

It is really possible. How powerful the artificial intelligence technology of the Azure Coast is, one or two can be glimpsed through the Dabai robot. Anyway, Xu Lecheng firmly believes that there is no second technology company or scientific research institution in the world that has the same level of artificial intelligence technology. The coast is comparable.

After a while, Xu Lecheng opened his computer to log in to his usual email account. The email he used was also a Bluestar mailbox under the Bluestar Technology Group. The login connection was also logged in with a blue space account. At first glance, he was one of Luo Sheng’s die-hard fans. A member of Bluestar Technology Family Barrel.

After logging in, I saw an unread new email that was sent two minutes ago. I immediately downloaded the contract template. After opening it, I found that it was more than 30 pages long.

Despite the variety of content, Xu Lecheng was relieved to see that there were dozens of pages of content. Dabai robots are worth hundreds of thousands and are related to jobs. If the terms of the agreement are only one or two pages of content, anyone with a bit of brain will False, I am definitely afraid to sign such a clause.

In any case, in front of large groups like the Cote d'Azur, ordinary consumers are an absolute disadvantaged group.

Xu Lecheng spent almost an hour carefully reviewing the entire contract template and confirmed that there were no pitfalls, all as the customer service said.

However, he is still not at ease. Although he trusts the Côte d'Azur, he still has a big deal to do with him.

Out of caution, Xu Lecheng printed out the template, then went to a law firm near the city to show it to the lawyer, consulted, and finally confirmed that the contract was not pitted before he was completely relieved.

Just waiting for someone to sign the contract.

Examples like Xu Lecheng are happening all over the country at this moment. With generous compensation returns, consumers have obtained a certain amount of deployment benefits. At the same time, under the guarantee of the Blue Coast, most consumers are The trust in this brand is extremely high, and the trust in Luo Sheng is extremely high. Most of the customers have accepted the Côte d’Azur’s recall recommendation.

Although it is a huge expense to compensate customers, the Côte d'Azur does not bear this expense. It is the foreigners who really pay the bill. There is no reason to spend other people's money.
