837 Live Commerce With The Smart Bickering Machine

"What the f*ck is this Tengda Option? I've already deliberately cut ties with the Road to Poor plan. How can it be linked back to me?"

Pei Qian had nowhere to vent his anger.

It could only be said that Pei Qian was the same as Qiu Hong. He had focused all his attention on the incubation base and neglected the independent game studios that had not been included in the incubation base. Then he had been stabbed mercilessly!

The more Pei Qian read, the more frustrated he became. The Survival Guide for Working Adults seemed to have exploded in both reputation and sales. If the studio really updated and produced some interesting downloadable content, it would not be a problem to sell the game for a year or so.

The Destitution Plan would be able to get a share of the profits even if they did not earn a single cent. That would be unbearable!

The only good news was that there were only a few days left until settlement. Most of the profits would be delayed until next month. It was considered a blessing in disguise.

Pei Qian sighed silently and continued to study the sudden spending plan.

…

At night, it was time to knock off.

Pei Qian arrived at the nearby Fish-Catching Internet Cafe. He opened Old Ma's live-stream on his cell phone and waited for him to do the reverse of Live commerce for the Fully-Automated Smart Bickering Machine.

Pei Qian trusted Old Ma very much.

Since he had already told Old Ma to be strict with the Fully-Automated Bickering Machine, be stingy with the details, and speak truthfully of the problems, Old Ma would definitely follow his instructions very seriously.

Chen Yufeng was a tool who was completely obedient to Old Ma. He had always been conscientious and hardworking. There should not be any major problems.

All in all, he hoped that the "live commerce" live-stream would dissuade consumers who were still watching from the sidelines. He hoped that the smart bickering machines would sell less, suppress more goods, and earn less money.

Soon, it was time.

Ma Yang officially started the live-stream amidst the numerous bullet screen comments.

Old Ma's live-stream also had a fixed audience after such a long period of accumulation, with the money being distributed on Weibo and the live commerce live-streams.

Some people watched Old Ma's live-stream to avoid the pitfalls. They would avoid any products that were of poor quality. Some were purely watching for fun.

At the same time, Ma Yang's team was busy.

After a whole day of work, the script that had been revised several times had been completely finalized. The various sections of the live-stream review had been arranged, including the dismantling of the machine and the various functions of the test. They had also been pre-planned to ensure that nothing went wrong.

What's more, Ma Yang was not the only one who appeared in the live-stream anymore. Occasionally, Chen Yufeng would appear as an assistant to help Old Ma with some technical work.

Ma Yang scanned the comments, his long face filled with pride.

Look at the number of bullet screen comments and the popularity. I've helped Brother Qian build his empire!

On the bullet screen, netizens were guessing what they would bring today.

"Let me see which 'lucky product' was selected today?"

"Take it down! Apologize! Take it down!"

"The various manufacturers are probably trembling in fear, waiting for justice to be carried out!"

"Boss Ma, stop wasting time. Let's start. I can't wait!"

Most of the viewers in the live-stream were old-timers. There was no need to be polite. Ma Yang briefly reviewed his script before entering the official segment.

"Today, I'll introduce a few speakers to everyone. These are the ones in front of me."

The camera zoomed out a little, showing the products on the table: there was a stereo system, an echo wall, some were just a long bar, or just a cylinder, and some were in a set with different shapes.

Among the many sound products, the Fully-Automated Smart Bickering Machine was so outstanding that everyone's attention was attracted in a second.

The other sound systems might have certain designs to them but nothing could be compared to the Fully-Automated Smart Bickering Machine.

This squarish black box, together with the metal rod at the top, looked like a postmodern art piece. It did not look like a technological product at all. It was obviously different from the sound system.

A bunch of question marks appeared on the bullet screen.

"Huh? Boss Ma, isn't this Tengda's own product?"

"Why, is Boss Ma going to put justice before family this time? He won't even let Boss Chang off?"

"Ask if you don't understand. Boss Ma and Boss Chang, who hold the higher position in Tengda?"

"Boss Ma has to be higher. Boss Ma is second only to Boss Pei in Tengda. What are you talking about?"

"Boss Ma wouldn't be advertising for Boss Chang out of friendship, right? Don't, the live-stream would be different! Tengda's products might be good but there's no need for Boss Ma to advertise for them personally!"

"Boss Ma, you're a little late with this live commerce. I've already bought the smart bickering machine!"

The audience was confused.

Ma Yang was completely unmoved. He continued to follow the written introduction.

After all, he had done so many live-streams and evaluated so many things. He had seen all sorts of storms. The only difference was that this time, he had one of his own products.

"The few speakers that I am going to introduce today are all items that can be purchased based on your economic conditions. You wouldn't be scammed too much even if you were scammed."

"The first one is an imported echo wall that costs 5,500 yuan. Its specifications is… the second one…"

"As for the Bickering Machine, while it sells for more than two thousand yuan, its various specifications are about the same as a two thousand yuan locally produced sound system…"

Ma Yang followed the proposal that Chen Yufeng had written and introduced all the speakers.

Ma Yang's live-stream style was to set the tone for this product from his opening speech: those products that did not meet the standards of quality and environmental protection would be "introduction to a few products that must not be bought". On the other hand, if they were products that were of quality, cost-effective ratio, and relatively popular, the opening line would be "purchase based on economic conditions".

However, no matter what kind of opening speech it was, he would introduce the detailed parameters of the product in every aspect, including its strengths and weaknesses.

What's more, there would definitely not be words like 'strongly recommended to purchase'. It did not matter whether the audience bought it or not since it had nothing to do with Ma Yang.

There were not many people in the audience who really understood the parameters of the sound systems. They could compare numbers at the very most. Therefore, most people were just listening in for this segment.

However, he could not miss out on this segment. If he did, he would look unprofessional.

After introducing the parameters, the audience had a simple impression. Basically, they would get what they paid for. Many foreign brands were three to five thousand yuan more expensive than domestic brands. The money was definitely not wasted, at least in terms of the parameters.

Of course, foreign brands had higher premiums as well.

What surprised many viewers was that Boss Ma did not praise the Fully-Automated Intelligent Bickering Machine. Instead, he spoke harshly about its shortcomings, such as its price-quality ratio.

Next was the 'detail presentation' segment.

A professional was in charge of filming the details of the few sound systems. After showing the external details, Chen Yufeng began to dismantle the system to show the internal details.

Once the internal details were displayed, the differences in the different styles of the sound system were revealed. The camera showed the details of the sound system clearly.

The brands of the various components, whether or not the arrangement of cables were neat, whether the welding points were solid, whether there were soundproof sponges, whether the backboard materials were solid…

All of these were clearly displayed in front of the audience in the live-stream.

While most of the audience did not know the brands of these components, they had a rough impression of the workmanship of the sound system.

"It feels like the sound system of this joint-owned brand really cheapened out on components inside! The cables are so messy, it feels like they are not very particular…"

"The quality of the original imported equipment is still better."

"However, some local brands are doing well as well. The gap between them and international brands is not as big as I thought."

"Why are they not so particular about the make of this 6,000 yuan sound system? It is really not worthy of its price."

"From the looks of it, the workmanship of the Fully-Automated Smart Bickering Machine is not bad. They seemed to have found a reliable factory."

"The mechanical structure inside is so exquisite. The various gears are seamless, making me feel the beauty of machinery!"

"Tengda is very serious when it comes to finding cooperative manufacturers. They are definitely reliable substitutes. You can tell from Otto Technologies' cell phone!"

"That's right. The Bickering Machine beat the other sound systems hands down with regards to its internal structure!"

"It's not the same thing after all. It's akin to bullying the others when comparing the internal structure!"

…

Pei Qian looked at the bullet screen comments in the live-stream and scratched his head in confusion.

"This…"

He did tell Ma Yang to show more details.

Logically speaking, the production of the Fully-Automated Intelligent Bickering Machine should have been outsourced to an external domestic sound system manufacturer. What's more, it was a product that cost more than two thousand yuan. Even if the Fully-Automated Smart Bickering Machine was more conscientious, had sufficient internal materials, and had been done well, it should not have been able to win against the sound systems costing a few thousand yuan!

However, the problem was that this was not just a sound system, but also a bickering machine!

The main structure of the Bickering Machine was very exquisite. All sorts of mechanical structures were interconnected, just like disassembling a clock, which was dazzling.

On the other hand, the other sound systems were nothing more than circuit boards, soundproofing sponges, loudspeakers and the like. No matter how detailed the workmanship was, it was not comparable to the internal structure of the smart bickering machine!

That was because apart from the sound system, the smart bickering machine had a very complicated mechanical structure, which added a lot of points to its appearance.

What's more, the Smart Bickering Machine had a very interesting bifurcation design. The two surround sound systems could be stuffed into the main body of the Bickering Machine to be charged. This novel design would also give it more points.

While Ma Yang did not emphasize the Fully-Automated Smart Bickering Machine after the introduction and even deliberately criticized it, its unique appearance, exquisite workmanship and details still attracted many people's attention.

It might be a little more expensive than the other two thousand yuan speakers but its design was unique!

Anyone who bought it and placed it at home could most likely be guaranteed that his guests would be curious about it. It would give him so much face once he explained how it works to them.

Old Ma's 'awkward criticism' had been too strict on the smart bickering machine. That had triggered many viewers' reverse psychology.

You may say that it won't do, but I think it's rather good!

I think it's quite worth it even if you say that the price-quality ratio isn't good!

It was starting a very dangerous trend even though that only made up a few bullet screen comments.

Pei Qian sipped his drink silently to calm himself down.

"It's alright, it's alright. These are all superficial skills. He evaluated the actual functionality of the stereo system later."

"Once they evaluate the sound quality, we will definitely be exposed. After all, you get what you pay for."

Pei Qian calmed himself down and continued reading.

…

After showing the internal structure of the sound system, Chen Yufeng reloaded the sound system and began the audio testing segment.

Professional equipment had also been prepared for this segment to facilitate the collection of sounds from different directions.

After all, some of the products here were echo walls. They had to use special equipment to pick sounds to show the effect of the echo walls surrounding them.

Of course, even with the best sound system and recording equipment, the audience were still only listening to the sounds coming from their own cell phone speakers or earphones.

The sound quality would definitely be seriously distorted with these devices.

Even so, they could roughly differentiate the quality of the different equipment sounds.

Chen Yufeng adjusted all the equipment in no time and played the same song with them one by one. Each equipment would play a small segment.

The Great Master Audio Reviewers on the bullet screen started their evaluation.

"Carry this away, it's bass is bad!"

"That sounds muffled. No go."

"This is alright."

"Wow, this is good. It beats the previous ones!"

"The sound systems costing tens of thousands yuan are really good sound systems. You can really tell the difference from those costing a few thousand yuan. This is the sound of money."

"Eh, the sound coming from the smart bickering machine is actually not bad. Its performance is relatively balanced. It doesn't sound much different from a five or six thousand yuan sound system."

"Indeed, it can basically achieve a sweet high pitch, accurate medium pitch, and deep low pitch. It's quite clear. This price point is actually not bad."

"The premium on the foreign brands is very high. The smart bickering machine was produced by domestic manufacturers. It should be more affordable."

He played several songs in a row, some with high and low pitches.

The Great Master Audio Reviewers evaluated and concluded on the bullet screen that the Fully-Automated Smart Bickering Machine sounded… not bad!

There did not seem to be much of a difference compared to other high-end sound systems.

It seemed pretty worth the purchase considering its price point and uniqueness?
