Chapter 452
"Well... money is enough for me."
Han Xiao seemed indifferent to Angus' doubts.
If he has not yet obtained the eyes of God, he is still a little concerned about money.
However, with the improvement of personal power, Han Xiao has long been out of the low-level fun of making money.
He can now even jokingly say that he is not interested in money.
Chapter 734 Rumors about Guili City
With the blessing of Abedo's materials, Mingyun Town began to put into production.
In less than half a month, all two hundred computers were transported to Kuixing Building and installed under Han Xiao's guidance.
With desktop computers, new recruits from the General Affairs Department who were previously trained will have the opportunity to practice their skills.
The sound of crackling keyboards echoed throughout the building, confusing many businessmen who came to Kuixing Building to handle business.
Although these businessmen didn't quite understand what those boxy 'boxes' were, they found that the efficiency of the staff seemed to have been greatly improved after the recent arrival of these 'boxes' in Kuixing Building.
As a result, a rumor quickly spread among the people in Guili City.
...
Angel's Gift is located in Guilicheng branch.
Even Liyue people who are used to drinking white wine are happy to have a glass of high-quality wine from Mondstadt after work.
Therefore, business here has always been very good.
Today, the tavern's business is as prosperous as usual, and many drinkers who have finished their work are gathering together in twos and threes to drink and chat.
"Have you heard about Kuixing Tower?"
"You mean those weird boxes!"
"Yes, I heard that that weird box seems to be the latest invention produced by the alchemy workshop under the name of Lord Hanxiao."
"You are behind on the news. The latest news is that the box is a product developed by Lord Hanxiao, Master Abedo and two new members of the workshop."
"Yes, yes, I also know that one of the new members seems to be Master Abedo's brother. It is said that the two of them look exactly the same!"
"I have a relative who works in Kuixing Building. The box you are talking about seems to be a desktop computer or a computer. Anyway, he said that it can improve work efficiency!"
As soon as these words came out, several drinkers who gathered around and chatted about the rumors widened their eyes in unison.
One of the drinkers had a look of realization on his face.
"No wonder...no wonder I went to Kuixing Tower to go through the formalities before. According to the previous progress, it took at least a day. But I got it done in less than an hour that time."
"It seems that Master Hanxiao and the others are developing inventions for office auxiliary use this time. I don't think they can be used like electric cars!"
"Are you crazy? The improved work efficiency of Kuixing Tower is definitely a good thing for the merchants in the city, okay? You know, it used to take a whole day to go through the formalities. It was so tiring!"
“Indeed, when we encounter some more troublesome applications, we can’t process them at all within a few days.”
"Do you think that new product called a desktop computer will be put on the market like an electric car?"
"If I can buy it personally, I think I will buy one and put it in my shop. Maybe it can also help me deal with my accounting problems."
"If it's possible, I'd like to buy one too."
...
As time went by, the rumors became more and more intense, and most residents of Guili City knew the latest rumors. Tianshu Xing Hanxiao teamed up with Master Abedo and two other newcomers to form a research and development team, and successfully developed a new product.
At present, it seems that this new product can greatly improve the office efficiency of staff.
In order to verify this situation, many businessmen went to Kuixing Building to complete the procedures. During this period, they paid special attention to observing every plant and tree in the building.
Soon they were sure that the rumors were correct. The staff of Kuixing Building seemed to have a lot of new tools to assist with office work.
Work efficiency has also been qualitatively improved as rumored.
It is certain that the rumors are true. In fact, many forward-looking big businessmen have developed a strong interest in desktop computers.
It is not only the official staff of Kuixing Building who can assist office staff to improve their work efficiency, there are also many matters of the Chamber of Commerce.
If they could get a few units back, could they also improve the work efficiency of the chamber of commerce?
Kuixing Tower.
"Recently, many leaders of chambers of commerce have asked me about desktop computers. Even my father and elder brother have asked me in a roundabout way."
In Han Xiao's office, Xingqiu, who was sitting on the sofa, spread his hands helplessly to Han Xiao and told Han Xiao about the situation he had encountered recently.
"Are there a lot of rumors about desktop computers?"
"Many, many people are curious about what a desktop computer actually does."
"That's really interesting. I thought not many people would take desktop computers seriously in the early days."
Han Xiao couldn't help but feel a little surprised when she learned from Xingqiu that there were a lot of rumors about desktop computers among the people in Guilicheng.
Today's desktop computers are not like computers that have been iterated many times in previous generations. Their desktop computers now have no entertainment functions at all, and some only have office functions.
Han Xiao originally thought that this product would not attract much attention at the beginning, but she never expected that it would trigger so many people's discussions.
"Are you underestimating the reputation you and Master Abedo have in Guili City now?"
Hearing Han Xiao's words without much 'self-knowledge', Xingqiu immediately raised his eyebrows, and his tone became a little weird.
Over the past two years, Han Xiao and Master Abedo have developed many useful new products, and many Liyue people have benefited from them.
Products such as electric vehicles not only facilitate travel in the past, but also help save a lot of transportation costs.
Therefore, the new products developed by Han Xiao and Abedo have always been synonymous with "opportunity" in Guili City.
Good guy, has a brand effect been formed?
After understanding why so many people paid attention to the desktop computer as soon as it came out, Han Xiao continued to ask;
"Then your father and the heads of major chambers of commerce are not very interested in purchasing desktop computers?"
"If you really want to sell desktop computers, I think my father and brother would buy a few and try them out."
Facing Han Xiao's question, Xingqiu pondered for a moment before giving his answer. At the same time, he did not forget to add:
"And even if my father and the others don't have this intention, I will still suggest that my brother and the others buy a few units."
As the second-in-command of Guilicheng, he is most familiar with the role that desktop computers played in office work in the past.
So Xingqiu knows very well how much a desktop computer can add to office workers.
"That's it. Then do you think I want you to open the sale of desktop computers now?"
Seeing that his family had also praised the desktop computer, Han Xiao also took advantage of the situation and asked Xingqiu for his opinions.
"I think it's better not to do it for now."
Hearing Han Xiao's question, Xingqiu unexpectedly shook his head and rejected the idea of growing up.
Chapter 735: Xingqiu: Iteration is too fast to keep up
"Why?"
Han Xiao was puzzled when she saw that her own invention Xiao Mingming had a high opinion of desktop computers but refused to sell them.
"It's still too early to launch now."
Regarding Han Xiao's doubts, Xingqiu directly stated his reasons.
Desktop computers are indeed very helpful in office work, but the problem is that this is a new thing and it is a little difficult to get started.
Even though the staff at Kuixinglou have a good ability to accept new things, they still encounter many difficulties during training.
Even the staff in Kuixing Tower who can be the first to come into contact with the new products developed by Han Xiao and the others need to be skilled, let alone other Liyue people.
Therefore, he felt that it would be better to wait for officials to become familiar with the operation of some desktop computers before considering popularization.
Otherwise, when the people of Liyue come to their door with computer problems, it would be funny if they officially tell them they know how to deal with it.
"No...how difficult is it to master a computer?"
After hearing Xingqiu's reasons, Han Xiao frowned instantly, her eyes full of confusion.
Will you be able to understand the general operation of this computer soon after touching it a few times?
Why do you feel that your family thinks that Liyue people are so stupid?
Obviously, Abedo, Fa Lushan and Ke Qing all understood how to operate the desktop computer very quickly!
"Please, don't even look at who these people are!"
Regarding the series of examples Han Xiao gave, Xingqiu was completely speechless.
Let’s take a look at the people who have been cited in their own posts.
Albedo, a genius alchemist.
Angus, Albedo's blood relative, is the same genius.
Fa Lushan, a talented scholar from Xumi.
As for Keqing and Ningguang, although they may not be as academically capable as the above-mentioned ones, they are also doers with flexible minds and clear ideas.
These people can be considered outstanding in the entire Teyvat.
Comparing them with ordinary Liyue people, Han Xiao is really a bit of a bully!
"You want to say that the people in Liyue are not as receptive as I thought?"
Hearing Xingqiu's rebuttal, Han Xiao vaguely understood what the other party was thinking, but he still felt that he was looking down on others when he was young.
After more than two years of training, people in Liyue won’t find it difficult to even get started with a desktop computer, right?
"It's not that I look down on people, but sometimes the products you develop are indeed a bit ahead of the times."
Seeing Han Xiao's disbelief, Xingqiu sighed slightly, and then gave the other party an example:
"Take mobile phones for example. Do you know how many people learn how to use them for at least a week after getting them?"
"Nearly 60% of the people in Guili City alone have been studying for a long time!"
"Ha...are you kidding me? Why are there so many people?"
Suddenly, Han Xiao was a little confused when she learned that nearly 60% of the people in Guilicheng had difficulty getting started with the mobile phone when it was released.
It seems that what he developed is not a smart phone, but the simplest button phone, right?
Is there anyone who can’t understand this?
Xingqiu, is he really not joking?
"Sorry, I wouldn't joke with you about something like this."
Xingqiu shook his head. He had overestimated Liyue people's ability to accept new things.
He was a little confused when he saw this statistic.
In fact, it doesn't mean that people in Liyue are stupid and can't even understand how to operate a mobile phone.
The most critical thing is that Han Xiao and the others jumped too much, causing the people of Liyue to be unable to accept new things in the first place.
emmm, how should I put it?
To put it simply, Liyue was in ancient times one second, and it was in modern times the next, without any buffer in between.
The people of Liyue, who grew up almost as early as the ancients, have been able to get started with high-end technological devices such as mobile phones. There are only a few people who can really get started with it.
Ah this...
At this time, Han Xiao finally realized that her image of the people in Liyue might have deviated from her previous life.
Since he was in the information age in his previous life, most people would play with their smartphones, making him forget that the predecessor of the mobile phone was introduced into the country as early as 1881.
After a hundred years of development, it was not until the end of the 20th century that landline telephones began to be fully popularized.
Although it only took about twenty years to develop from landline phones to smartphones, by that time communication equipment had been spread through movies and television, and most people already knew how to use it.
On the other hand, Liyue's side, just like Xingqiu commented, the generation jump was too great.
Han Xiao and Abedo directly skipped the development and popularization stage of communication equipment and directly launched landline and mobile phones together.
