Big White No. 1 was activated by Tong Yihang directly using voice commands, meaning that they had upgraded Big White No. 1 with a voice-activated feature.
However, these other 11 Big Whites don’t have this feature and can only be activated using a controller or by pressing the button on their red boxes manually.
After all, these 11 Big Whites are meant for trial testing at Mist City Central Hospital and for Twitter drawing fans. Keeping the existing features is enough.
Meanwhile, Big White No. 1 is being persistently upgraded and optimized by Tong Yihang and the team, its features will naturally become more abundant.
The laboratory is filled with the sound of inflation.
The inflation speed of these 11 Big Whites is the same as before, slower than Big White No. 1 a bit.
Clearly, the inflation system upgrade in Big White No. 1 must have been completed after the creation of these 11 Big Whites.
Ding Yue inspected these 11 Big Whites, each of them was warm and adorable.
Gently, Ding Yue stretched out his hand to poke one of the Big Whites in the stomach. The elasticity was impressive.
Indeed, it was as familiar as it could be.
Ding Yue suddenly turned around and called Secretary Wen Ruohan.
"Eh, Principal Ding, I’m here."
"Contact Mist City Central Hospital and tell them the ten medical health robots are ready, they can pick them up at any time."
Declared Ding Yue proudly.
These ten medical health robots are among the first batch of Big Whites going to be commercially used in the world.
As for the remaining one.
It will be the first that belongs to a private user worldwide.
"Okay, Principal Ding."
Wen Ruohan nodded her head in agreement, then stepped aside, took out her phone and started contacting Mist City Central Hospital.
"Oh right, as of right now, it’s just robot Big White without programming for medical chips, right?"
Ding Yue suddenly remembered.
A week ago, Xu Bin had told Ding Yue that all medical chips required for the 11 Big Whites had been completed.
So, Ding Yue took out his phone and called Bin: "Bin, bring the 11 medical chips over, we’re at the Department of Mechanical Engineering laboratory."
After hanging up, looking at the 11 robot Big Whites, Ding Yue felt a deep sense of accomplishment.
"Not counting the manufacturing costs at the beginning, how much does it cost us to produce one Big White now?"
Ding Yue asked Tong Yihang and his team.
"Given there is already a mature manufacturing system, the cost per unit, considering only material and manufacturing costs, is merely 20 or 30 thousand yuan." Tong Yihang answered.
The fact that it only costs 20 to 30 thousand yuan to produce a robot in the lab is much lower than our initial estimate. If mass produced on the production line, the price may be even lower.
I almost forgot to calculate the medical chip cost.
If we add this to the total, the cost will likely increase by nearly ten thousand yuan.
When calculated, the cost of a Big White medical health robot is upwards of 30,000 yuan, which is not low.
But for now, Ding Yue isn’t worried about this.
After all, there’s still time before Big White is produced and sold, let’s wait for the trial at Mist City Central Hospital to succeed, and then successful obtain the medical device qualification.
"Principal Ding, I have contacted the Mist City Central Hospital. President Jiang Zhongbo asked when we could deliver Big White for trial testing?"
After calling, Wen Ruohan came to Principal Ding and asked.
"Anytime is fine." Ding Yue nodded, then thought of something, "However, we have to send at least one technical guidance personnel for trial testing at the Central Hospital, right?"
As Ding Yue finished speaking, he glanced at Tong Yihang and his team out of the corner of his eye.
But I’d surely promised Yihang and his team that after the manufacture of the 11 Big Whites, I’d reward them with a global luxury cruise. Tickets were already booked.
"Principal Ding, how about I stay for the technical guidance?" At this time, Tong Yihang stood up consciously and volunteered enthusiastically.
"How can that be? I have promised that when you guys complete these 11 Big Whites, I will let you guys enjoy a global luxury cruise. The tickets are all bought."
Ding Yue shook his head and said.
"Principal Ding, why don’t we do this. Our team has added two more members recently. They aren’t here today because they have classes. We can use the time before departure to train them on the technical guidance of Big White, I think it’s manageable."
Liu Tiefei stood out and said.
The manufacturing team in the Department of Mechanical Engineering had expanded once before. Two competent students from the department joined the team.
However, their capability is lesser than Tong Yihang, Liu Tiefei and Yang Jie.
If Tong Yihang and his team represent top-tier abilities, these two students would be one level below.
However, those two students have taken part in the manufacturing process of Big White. If given proper technical guidance training by Tong Yihang and Liu Tiefei, they should be able to catch on quickly.
