Chapter 236 Ten Thousand?! My God, is Jiang Jing doing charity?
On stage, Li Jian was as excited as a child who had just received a new toy, walking back and forth, jumping, and trying out various movements he had never dared to dream of before.
Jiang Yan picked up the microphone at the right moment and continued to introduce, "As everyone can see, it not only moves freely, but more importantly, it has regained that lost 'feeling'."
"Furthermore, our product features a highly user-friendly design. Its length is adjustable; regardless of where the amputation site is, it can be perfectly adapted through simple operations. More importantly, it adopts a highly modular design."
"It only requires limbs, eliminating the need for expensive custom production, which will greatly reduce costs and allow more people to benefit!"
The people offstage looked at the Prosthetic limb with such powerful functions on stage, and their eyes completely changed.
Their initial skepticism turned into unbelievable excitement!
At this moment, many people even had an absurd and strong impulse—even if they had healthy limbs, they wanted to buy a set to collect or play with.
This was simply like a technological work of art from the future.
The guest seats in the front row were no longer as calm and scrutinizing as before.
Leading the group of scientific luminaries, Elder Qin had his eyes wide open, wishing he could rush onto the stage immediately to touch and disassemble that ingenious mechanical creation with his own hands!
Although Staff Officer Zhang and Deputy Director Liu were not as obsessed with technical details as the scientists, the shock and joy in their eyes were not diminished in the slightest.
What they saw was the hope for countless soldiers, police officers, and even ordinary citizens who had been disabled due to injuries to stand up again!
It was a huge leap forward for logistical support and public welfare!
The two looked at each other and saw incredibly firm support in each other's eyes—such technology and talent must be protected at all costs!
As for the hundreds of millions of netizens watching the press conference through the online Livestream room, their reactions were even more direct and intense.
When the press conference first started, and Jiang Yan announced that it was "Neural Induction Prosthetics," the barrage and comment section were almost drowned out by various voices of skepticism:
"It must be fake, another concept hype!"
"Must be a plant! They're acting for us!"
"Heh, nowadays, to sell things, they dare to write any script."
"Waiting to see them get slapped in the face. If this is real, I'll livestream myself washing my hair while doing a handstand."
However, as Li Jian took the stage, revealing his real amputated limb, and then proceeded with a series of smooth and flowing demonstrations after putting on the Prosthetic limb...
The trend on the internet instantly underwent a 180-degree earth-shattering reversal!
"Holy sh*t!!! Holy sh*t!!!!"
"What did I just see?! Is this f*cking real?!"
"This smoothness?! This jumping?! These toes can move?! Is this f*cking a Prosthetic limb?!"
"I'm kneeling, I'm really kneeling. Jiang Jing is awesome! Xingchen Technology is awesome!"
"That soldier brother's reaction is definitely not acting; he's really moved to tears."
"The brother who said he'd wash his hair while doing a handstand, post your room number, I'm going to watch."
"Ahhh! This is too cool! This mechanical leg! I really want one! Even if my legs are fine..."
"+1 to the person above. This is a man's romance; it's insanely cool!"
"This texture! This luster! This flexibility! It's worth buying just to collect!"
The barrage went completely crazy, with "Holy sh*t" and "Awesome" flooding the screen like a tsunami, causing the server to lag for a moment.
In the face of iron-clad facts, all voices of skepticism were crushed to pieces, replaced by amazement and worship.
Just then, at the press conference, a selected reporter impatiently grabbed the opportunity to ask a question, posing the ultimate question in everyone's mind: "CEO Jiang, may I ask, what is the pricing for such an epoch-making product? It must be very expensive, right?"
Once this question was asked, the whole venue instantly quieted down, and all eyes focused on Jiang Yan again.
The barrage on the internet also became uniform, saying "Tell us the price!", "I've already prepared my wallet!", and "Although I can't afford it, I want to know!".
Indeed, with such black technology and such heaven-defying effects, anyone could guess with their eyes closed that the price would definitely be an astronomical figure!
I'm afraid only a very small number of wealthy people could afford it.
Facing the expectant and nervous gazes of the whole venue, Jiang Yan showed a smile on her face.
Her voice, through the microphone, clearly spread throughout the venue and also reached the ears of every netizen watching the livestream.
"Regarding the question of price, at the very beginning of product research and development, our CEO Jiang gave clear instructions."
She paused, her tone solemn and powerful: "He said that the birth of the Prosthetic limb was intended to help those who truly need it to regain a new life, not to pursue extreme profits. Technology should serve people and, more importantly, warm people's hearts."
"Therefore, the domestic price we have finally decided on is—"
Jiang Yan took a deep breath and announced a number that instantly left everyone's brain blank:
"Standard version—10,000 Dragon Country currency."
Quiet! Dead silence! It lasted for a full five or six seconds!
Immediately, the whole venue went "boom," as if it had exploded!
"How much?! Ten thousand yuan?!"
"Did I hear that wrong?!"
"This... how is this possible?!"
"What's the difference between this and giving it away for free?!"
"A top-configured computer costs more than this..."
"This is something that can be used for many years; Jiang Jing is simply doing charity!"
The exclamations and discussions offstage were deafening; everyone was completely shocked by this absurdly low price.
At this price, not to mention recovering R&D costs, it might not even cover the cost of high-end materials.
The online Livestream room was even more completely boiling!
"Ten thousand?! I'm tearing up, I'm really tearing up..."
"This is what an entrepreneur is; this is the responsibility of a national enterprise!"
"From now on, I am a die-hard fan of Xingchen Technology!"
"Jiang Jing is the best!!"
"I apologize for suspecting you were a profiteer before, I'm sorry!"
"This vision is too big! You deserve to get rich!"
Staff Officer Zhang and Deputy Director Liu, sitting beside Jiang Jing, couldn't help but turn their heads at this moment, their eyes filled with heartfelt admiration and respect.
Deputy Director Liu whispered, "CEO Jiang, I admire you! You've truly achieved technology for the people!"
Staff Officer Zhang even patted Jiang Jing's shoulder forcefully: "Good! Well done! I didn't misjudge you!"
Jiang Jing smiled slightly and accepted the praise calmly.
In fact, after achieving mass production, this pricing could barely achieve a small profit or break even, thanks to the advanced technology and low-cost materials provided by the system, but he deserved the credit for this original intention of benefiting the people.
Moreover, if some wealthy people want something better, they would naturally have to pay more, but the standard version is completely sufficient for ordinary people.
Just then, another foreign media reporter grabbed the microphone and asked eagerly, "CEO Jiang, then what about the price in the overseas market? Will it also be this shocking price?"
