Chapter 689: Chapter 689: Discussing Collaboration at their Doorstep

“`

Global Network.

“I want to buy one, designed to look like Britney.”

“I’ll buy one too, but make it look like Leonardo.”

“This AI companion is really too powerful. It’s not only shaking up the dating market, but it may also impact the entire human society!”

“In the future, people might beco even less patient when dating real people. Even if they can’t find a boyfriend or girlfriend, don’t get married, there’s still the option of an AI companion.”

...

“I’m sure that with this AI companion, the global fertility rate will plumt.”

“AIs can’t reproduce. I fear that in a few thousand years, humanity might face extinction.”

“With a population of over a billion in Huaxia, and considering Xu Yang and his compatriots are from Huaxia, could it be their plan to annihilate the populations of other countries, to pave the way for Huaxia to dominate the globe?”

“Conspiracy theorists can go away. They just want to make money, that’s all!”

“What conspiracy theory? What I’m saying isn’t impossible. Our beautiful country has always been suppressing Huaxia. This could be Huaxia’s retaliation.”

“If that’s really the case, it’s terrifying.”

“I earnestly request the governnt to ban this AI companion on the grounds of national security.”

“How is that possible, to drag national security into this matter over an AI companion? I’m really astounded.”

“Doesn’t our beautiful country always do things like this? What’s wrong with doing it one more ti?”

“Hahaha, we can’t afford them in the Great African Domain; we’ll still be reproducing. When the developed countries have no more population and go extinct, it will be our turn in the Great African Domain to rule the world.”

“Humanity originated from Africa, and it shall end in Africa!”

…

The global network is abuzz.

Much more exaggerated than the discussions on Huaxia’s networks.

Even conspiracy theories have erged.

Regardless, this AI companion is truly a hit.

At this mont, countless people want to buy an AI companion, countless people decisively break up with their partners, and countless others propose divorce to their other halves.

The global marriage and dating market is in turmoil.

To be honest, Xu Yang and his friends hadn’t anticipated this situation.

Originally, Xu Yang had learned through the system that this product would be a huge hit, making tens of billions of dollars in a year—but that was it.

He had never thought it could lead to such problems.

Wang Xiaocong certainly hadn’t considered these issues either; he invested just because Xu Yang asked him to.

Investing with Xu Yang was good as long as there was money to be made.

Liu Qiangxi and Ma Huateng were even more clueless; their sole intention was to use this investnt as a ans to break into the beautiful country’s market.

In fact, they had even braced themselves for potential losses.

But now, with the product becoming a hit, they were guaranteed to make money.

The slew of discussions it sparked around the world was beyond their expectations.

Backstage.

Watching the comnts on the network, Xu Yang and his friends looked at each other in dismay.

Xu Yang said with a wry smile, “I didn’t expect that investing in this company would lead to all this. I just wanted to make money.”

Wang Xiaocong shook his head, “This product could indeed trigger a range of issues once it’s released.”

Liu Qiangxi’s gaze flickered, “Whether it triggers problems or not is beyond our control. Let’s just go with the flow. There’s no need for us to fret over this.”

Ma Huateng nodded, “Liu is right. In fact, as technology advances, products like this are inevitable sooner or later. We’re just ahead of the curve and get to profit from it. Why not enjoy it?”

“`

Xu Yang nodded. “President Liu and President Ma are right, we’re just a step ahead, making the first wave of money. Other issues are not for us to consider.”

After a pause, he continued, “Actually, we might be worrying for nothing, influenced by public opinion. After all, we’ve seen the product ourselves. Artificial intelligence is just that, artificial intelligence; it can’t compare to a real person. This might just be a craze. Once everyone has used it, they’ll realize that, no matter how good artificial intelligence is, it’s not better than a real person. Real people are better.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiaocong and the other two nodded.

Indeed.

There has always been a cautionary voice in the developnt of artificial intelligence for humanity.

It seems that whatever progress artificial intelligence makes, humanity will end up this way or that.

Many movies also contemplate similar thes.

But after all, humans are humans, and artificial intelligence is artificial intelligence.

No matter how advanced artificial intelligence becos, it can’t replace humans.

As for the future and what it will beco, no one can say for certain.

The advancent of technology can’t be stopped by any one person or event.

The four of them had simply been involved in one such event.

The group chatted.

They seed to have resolved their worries and stopped paying attention to the online comntary.

At that mont, a staff mber ca in.

The staff mber said, “Mr. Xu, Mr. Wang, President Liu, President Ma, there’s soone who wants to discuss a partnership to distribute our product.”

Xu Yang frowned. “If it’s about partnership, have them talk to Charles, there’s no need to inform us. We will be leaving the Pretty Country in a couple of days, let Charles handle it completely.”

The staff mber said, “Mr. Xu, the person insists on speaking directly with the four of you.”

“Hmm?”

Xu Yang and the others looked at each other.

Wang Xiaocong asked, “Who is the person that specifically wants to et with us? They must not be a nobody.”

The staff mber replied, “Indeed not a nobody. It’s Tulls, the heir of the Brook Family, one of the Four Great Families of Nu City.”

“It’s him!”

Xu Yang and the others were shocked.

Xu Yang, Wang Xiaocong, and Ma Hua Teng, all looked toward Liu Qiangxi.

Xu Yang said, “President Liu, your enemy has co. It seems he knows about us and that we’re here. Now he’s seeking us out to distribute our product, bypassing the general manager to talk to us directly. It’s your decision whether we et him or not.”

Wang Xiaocong said, “President Liu, I think he might be trying to make ands with you, to ease the tension between you. Otherwise, he wouldn’t need to approach us just to distribute a product. It’s your call whether we et or not; I’m indifferent.”

Ma Hua Teng also spoke up, “Old Liu, I respect your decision. Whatever you say goes.”

Liu Qiangxi’s gaze flickered.

This bastard Tulls was the very culprit behind the scandal that embarrassed him.

He would love to have Tulls dead.

Unfortunately, this was not Huaxia but the Pretty Country.

Revenge was basically impossible.

Now, the man had co to him, seeking to distribute their company’s product. Could this be an opportunity for sothing?

Liu Qiangxi thought for a while and then said, “Mr. Xu, Wang Xiaocong, President Ma, if you ask , I definitely don’t want him to distribute our product. I have a grudge against him, and this product is bound to make a lot of money. If I let him distribute it, it won’t sit well with .”

Wang Xiaocong said, “President Liu, you’re not wrong in your thinking. Helping an enemy make money is idiotic.”

Ma Hua Teng said, “Old Liu, since you’re against him distributing it, I respect your opinion. After all, the product is a hit; we won’t have trouble finding other distributors.”

Xu Yang asked, “So, should we just have him leave?”
