Zhao Min stared blankly at the robot pouring her a cup of hot water, her face filled with disbelief. She had never entered Chen Mo's laboratory and had no idea what was being researched inside. Usually, she merely arranged certain matters for him according to his requests.
Yet the moment she came up to Chen Mo's office, he had summoned this robot. A robot straight out of a sci-fi movie stood right before her.

"Your toy is really unusual. Is the technology mature yet?" Zhao Min looked at the robot in amazement.
"Not yet. It's still in the data-testing stage," Chen Mo said. "For now, it's my laboratory assistant—a robot assistant."
"Once the technology matures, how much do you think it'll cost to make?"
"Hard to say. But since I began researching it, excluding the intelligent core, I've spent twenty million. More importantly, it cost me a lot of brain cells. If it were mass-produced, the manufacturing cost should be around one million," Chen Mo said.
"Would you be interested in putting it on the market?" Zhao Min asked.
"The technology isn't mature yet. Its components and specifications don't have concrete data. Its service life is unknown. If it breaks down right after being sold, wouldn't that ruin our reputation?"
"Fine. Tell me when the technology matures and you're ready to launch it. If the cost really is only one million,
