As soon as Wu Hao's Weibo post came out, it was quickly watched by netizens. Some praised it, while others criticized it.
But these are not important to Wu Hao and others, as long as their smart voice assistant sales are still booming.
According to the latest statistics from the sales department, the total sales of their smart voice assistant has reached two million units. And it is still growing rapidly, and the growth rate continues to increase. It seems that it is affected by this
The impact of the incident.
The sales of related auxiliary equipment have also exceeded 300,000 pieces and are currently growing rapidly. Various home appliance brands have seen the market potential in this area and have come to cooperate with them.
For example, they cooperated with Rongsheng Group, a well-known domestic refrigerator brand, and successfully realized data interconnection and related function control of refrigerators.
The intelligent voice control of the refrigerator is actually very useless. It is nothing more than functions such as temperature adjustment, humidity maintenance or defrosting. It is not used on a daily basis and is only used during specific periods. After all, who has nothing to do to adjust the refrigerator all the time. So this function,
It's just a piece of cake to implement intelligent management of home appliances.
Of course, it also provides some conveniences. For example, the smart voice assistant can adjust the working status of the refrigerator according to the difference in outside temperature or season. Users can also use the voice to control and adjust the refrigerator, etc.
What Wu Hao is more optimistic about or more practical is the real-time data display of the refrigerator, which is definitely of great use to users.
The most important of these is the internal space and cargo management of the refrigerator. Through the internal sensors of the refrigerator, the user can know the food consumption in the refrigerator in real time, so that it can be replenished in time.
In addition, there are many other home appliances that want to take advantage of this trend of smart home appliances, and they are seeking cooperation with Wu Hao and others to launch their own smart home appliances. Such as range hoods, electric ovens, and rice cookers.
, smart toilets, lamps, humidifiers, air purifiers, etc.
Of course, Wu Hao and the others are also very cautious in this regard. They choose big brands with reliable quality and certain strength. Only after passing relevant product quality inspections and related matching control function tests, they will submit to relevant companies.
Authorized labeling for electrical appliance production.
In fact, it is a set of comprehensive control standards for smart home appliances developed by Wu Hao and others, which stipulates detailed data on the quality, control methods, and related operating status of home appliances.
Only smart home appliances certified by them can obtain relevant electronic certificates and gain permission to connect to the ‘smart home control center’.
When your product is good enough and big enough, other products or related products will also refer to your standards.
Currently, Wu Hao and others are far ahead in terms of smart homes. If other companies want to take advantage of this ride, they must cooperate with them and open up relevant cooperation and docking channels.
The reason why they do this is that they also want to gradually standardize this market. In order to catch your popularity, many small brands or copycat products will also launch corresponding functions and then connect to your smart home control mid-end.
Intelligent voice assistants often have problems when controlling them, and there may even be safety accidents.
With the popularity of their smart home control mid-range, there have now been four or five such accidents. Judging from on-site investigations and user feedback, these are all caused by the quality of these cheap products.
Therefore, they had to urgently push relevant patches to identify and deny access to these products to avoid similar accidents, which is also detrimental to users' personal safety.
However, this has caused dissatisfaction among some users and home appliance manufacturers, who believe that Wu Hao and others are completely discriminating and taking the opportunity to harvest the wool of these small brands.
Wu Hao and others also provided relevant explanations and explanations, but some people were still dissatisfied.
However, their measures are supported by regular home appliance manufacturers. These low-end counterfeit products are of poor quality and are prone to accidents.
These unscrupulous merchants use such cheap products to seize the market and disrupt the entire market order. It can be said that regular home appliance manufacturers hate this.
This measure by Wu Hao and others can greatly curb the wanton development of these products and maintain the normal operation of the market.
Of course, this consensus cannot erase the huge differences in negotiations between them and these major appliance manufacturers.
In fact, it is nothing more than dividing the interests in batches. Wu Hao and others naturally have their own persistence, and these manufacturers also have their own plans.
Therefore, there will inevitably be disagreements in this regard during the negotiations, but in Wu Hao's view, these are temporary. Under the current situation, they will agree sooner or later.
Although Wu Hao and others had such smart voice systems integrating home appliances before them, after them, some well-known technology companies also launched their own smart voice assistants and smart homes in an attempt to seize this huge market.
However, the performance of these devices is without exception much worse than that of Wu Hao's products. If nothing else is said, the voice broadcasting is comparable to that of real people, and these companies have no way to deal with it.
In addition, the relatively low price and good user experience made this product quickly popular, and two million units have been sold, making them basically established in the market.
Unless there are new more advanced or equivalent technical products, they will not be able to shake their market position in the field of intelligent voice.
These home appliance manufacturers also understand that the launch and rapid coverage and popularization of Wu Hao's smart voice product will represent the arrival of the era of smart home appliances. Whoever can seize the opportunity at this time will gain greater benefits.
Therefore, we must reach cooperation with Wu Hao and others as soon as possible, otherwise if we are preempted by other peers, we may lose our competitiveness in the smart home appliance market.
For Wu Hao and others, cooperation with these home appliance manufacturers will further stabilize their position in the field of smart homes and even smart voice assistants.
In this way, even if the same or leading technology does appear in the future, they will be able to use their huge market advantages to remain invincible.
Of course, this is impossible, unless there is another lucky person like him in the world. According to Wu Hao's estimation, this is probably smaller than the chance of Mars hitting the earth.
Besides, this is just a product for him to lay the foundation and accumulate funds to build a team. There are more things in his mind waiting for him to develop.
