How Dare a Firefly's Light Compete with the Sun and Moon

The headquarters of Honey Badger Security has been built to an ever-growing scale, resembling a heavily guarded military base.

Before my eyes, there were hundreds, if not thousands, of security personnel of all skin colors. Each of them was equipped with individual combat gear, carrying firearms, and moving in and out in formation.

Not far away, there was a wide variety of equipment, from armored vehicles, armed helicopters, military off-road vehicles to various heavy firepower equipment.

This is actually a security company's setup?

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it an army, would it?

"Yes, only a small portion; most of them are out taking on missions." Zhang Yang smiled as he observed the crowd's reactions.

"Only a small portion!?" Everyone exclaimed in shock. "Then, Brother Zhang, how many people does your security company actually have now?"

"Quite a few, around five thousand people," Zhang Yang said.

"More than five thousand people?!" Everyone fell silent.

Is this Zhang Ge's true foundation and strength?

Domestically, people only know that Brother Zhang is incredibly powerful and wealthy, with boundless personal charisma that attracts many followers. But when they go abroad, they realize that what they saw was just the tip of the iceberg.

He maintained a private army of thousands armed men, arbitrarily commanded local military and police for his own purposes, and could manipulate events at will...

Each and every one of these events is so awe-inspiring that it inspires near-reverence.

Those so-called influential figures and big shots are nothing but fireflies compared to Brother Zhang; how could they possibly compete with the sun and moon?

··

During their two weeks in the Gangge Republic, Zhang Yang showed them countless aspects of the Gangge Republic's culture and customs, and also allowed them to further appreciate his own strength.

Private army, power, status.

There are also huge, noisy mines that operate 24/7, with gold mines everywhere.

Everyone was deeply shocked.

Carrying this profound sense of awe, the group of young men embarked on their journey back home aboard Zhang Yang's Gulfstream.

They revered, Yangwang, and looked up to Zhang Yang. Unconsciously, Zhang Yang had already established an insurmountable and towering image in everyone's hearts, for the rest of their lives.

Starting in July, Zhang Yang's various industries, both domestic and international, have been surging forward in the torrent of history, developing and expanding with unstoppable momentum.

Needless to say, the mines in the Gangge Republic.

Mines of all sizes, gold mines scattered like raindrops, and all kinds of mineral deposits—he could get his hands on almost anything he wanted.

For him, wealth and status were nothing but fleeting clouds.

Of course, he is currently focusing on the few large mines he has already acquired and has not yet made any moves on other mineral deposits. Firstly, he cannot handle them all, and secondly, he does not want to attract too much attention.

No matter how powerful he is, it's impossible for him to monopolize the mineral resources of an entire country; that's a pipe dream.

On the other hand, since leaving Gango, the Honey Badger Security have entered a period of rampant growth.

Overseas companies all over Africa...

A series of conflicts and wars, large and small...

Various security tasks...

Honey Badger Security is virtually ubiquitous, active on stages large and small across Africa, and is gradually gaining international recognition, showing signs of becoming a top global private armed contractor.

Domestically, there's no need to elaborate on his other fixed assets; those industries that Zhang Yang was once most proud of are now just a tiny, insignificant tip of the iceberg of his wealth empire.

Let's just talk about Cloud Sea Technology.

Since its release, Cloud Motion has undergone several version iterations, with continuous updates and releases of features.

Currently, it stands out in the domestic AI field, with its total downloads continuing to climb after surpassing 100 million.

While it may not be a household name, it's certainly a familiar app to young people.

Thanks to the simulation robot technology he obtained from the system, Zhang Yang had already accumulated a reserve of ergonomic and mechanical technologies that far exceeded the current world's level by several decades.

Therefore, this is a key product that will enable Cloud Sea Technology to move from online to offline.

It is about to be released.

October of the same year.

A robot dog equipped with Cloud Sea Technology's Cloud Intelligence 1.0 artificial intelligence system has been launched.

There are many similar robots already on the market, and there are precedents for robot dogs, but how could a product from Cloud Sea Technology be anything but ordinary?

This robot dog far surpasses other products of its time in both mobility and intelligence.

In other words, once you put a dog on a leash, you can treat it like a dog.

As for the Cloud Intelligence 1.0 system installed on the robot dog, it can be considered the first truly meaningful artificial intelligence system released by Cloud Sea Technology.

However, compared to the true complete version, it's practically a stripped-down version.

However, it's perfectly adequate for use with robot dogs.

The publicly listed price for this product is 9999.

The announcement caused a stir in the industry.

Numerous media outlets and industry insiders have offered diverse opinions on this product from Cloud Sea Technology, which has transitioned from online to offline sales.

Cloud Sea Technology does not currently have a physical store sales network.

Therefore, for the time being, orders can only be placed online.

The first to try it out were naturally a large number of digital bloggers.

··

In China, well-known digital blogger Aze ordered a Cloud Sea Robotic Dog from Cloud Sea Technology's official online sales website.

After a week, the goods were finally shipped from the factory and arrived in my hands.

"Good heavens, Cloud Sea Technology apparently didn't send out a single prototype this time. I heard that everyone in the industry is paying for their own testing." Aze and his team carried down a huge package together.

"Given Yunhai's usual practices, they wouldn't risk damaging their own reputation. This product shouldn't be a trial run; it's something the company has high hopes for, a key product for their transition from online to offline," a friend remarked.

"Probably, but the press conference was truly impressive."

With the help of several people, they carried the items back to the studio.

Upon opening the package, I found a sturdy product box. Inside the box, besides the product itself, was a thin instruction manual, which was quite concise and to the point.

"The instruction manual is that simple?"

"So confident? They didn't seem to explain its features much at the launch event."

A short while later, the group took out the robot dog.

"Wow, what a complex joint structure."

"This industrial design, this mechanical structure, it's got something special!"

The crowd gasped in surprise.

The mechanical dog in front of me has a slender body and complex joints in its limbs. It looks like a streamlined beauty, and it is an overwhelming display of industrial design aesthetics.

With this quality, it's undoubtedly a premium product.

Everyone seemed to recall the awe they felt when they first used Cloud Sea Technology's products and experienced the Cloud Motion technology.

A moment later, everyone eagerly prepared to start the robot dog according to the instructions.

The robot dog lying on the ground began to flash its head.

Then

321!

The robot dog suddenly leaped up, its entire body resembling a lifelike dog.

"Wow!"

"Holy crap..."

"Hey, it looks like it's watching us..."

Everyone knew that the robot dog was undergoing a crucial process: registering its owner's identity.

Aze quickly squatted down and began the process of recording the portrait.

The traffic lights flashed a few times.

The robot dog started circling around his trouser leg, gently rubbing against it, and occasionally tilting its head to look at him, making hissing noises.

"This is truly amazing..."

Aze exclaimed.

This sense of dynamism, this incredibly fluid movement, is completely without any stagnation.

It's like a real dog with a skin on.

He excitedly started jogging around the studio.

The robot dog, just like a real dog, follows its owner around, leaping and bounding, performing all sorts of difficult moves with effortless ease!

Upon seeing this, everyone in the studio quickly grabbed their filming equipment, ready to capture the footage.

They had never seen such a lifelike robot dog before.

These actions, each seemingly insignificant move, reveal an unimaginable level of industrial and mechanical technology.

Cloud Sea Technology, as expected, produces high-quality products.

In the distance, Aze suddenly stopped. The robot dog also stopped and rubbed against his trouser leg.

He looked at the crowd, and a strange light suddenly flashed in his eyes.

"Hey buddy, what are you doing?" Several guys from the studio suddenly felt a chill run down their spines, as if they had some kind of ominous premonition.

"Bite him!" Aze suddenly laughed.

The next second, the robot dog suddenly turned around and pounced on the target like a dog.

"Holy crap!"

One of them happened to be next to the robot dog.

Although the robot dog's head had no mouth or teeth, he clearly felt a kind of illusion at this moment.

The illusion of being bitten by a dog.

That's so true.

It's so real.

After that, the group tried out various functions they could think of around the robot dog.

Without exception, all of them were completed exceptionally well.

After an unknown amount of time, the studio fell silent. Everyone sat quietly in place, unsure of what to say.

Aze stroked the robot dog's head, just as he would a real dog.

"I never imagined that Cloud Sea Technology would create such a masterpiece. Even in the entire world of simulation machine products, this is truly unique."

"So... how should we describe this product?" one colleague asked.

"What else can I say... naturally..." Aze's eyes shone brightly, as if they were glowing, "We should promote the glory of our domestic products."

This time, the pride of domestic products truly stands out from the crowd.

It's truly epoch-making.

Not long after, Aze released a major piece of work.

The title is quite eye-catching.

Is it a source of pride for domestic products, or just another example of cookie-cutter imitations?

In an instant, countless people saw the work and clicked on it immediately.

The video opens with a clip of Aze playing and running around like a robot dog.

Throughout the entire process, the robot dog moved with agility and fluidity, just like a real dog.

This single scene silenced countless knowledgeable people, who immediately calmed down and prepared to take a closer look.

Then, starting with the unboxing, the presentation went into great detail, introducing the robot dog released by Cloud Sea Technology in every aspect, from the smallest detail to its functions.

The robot dog shown in the video far surpasses any current simulation robot product on the market, both in terms of its mechanical structure and specific AI functions.

It was an absolute and overwhelming victory.

At the end of the video, Aze sits on the ground, gently stroking the robot dog that is rolling on the ground, as if asking its owner to pat its belly. His gaze is incredibly intriguing.

From a technological standpoint, I can confidently say that its mechanical structure and industrial design far surpass any product on the market.

From a humanistic perspective, this robotic dog could almost completely replace a real dog and even perform functions far exceeding those of a real dog.

I even feel that this isn't a lifeless product, but rather one that has been infused with a soul.

Cloud Sea Technology lives up to its reputation.

Aze is one of the most influential bloggers in the digital field today. He doesn't speak carelessly; he takes responsibility for what he says.

The impact of this video was considerable.

At 9999, you can't go wrong with this price. Besides, anyone considering buying such a rare gadget as a robot dog is not short of money.

If what Aze said is true, buying a robot dog for 9999 that can provide companionship and attract countless eyes when taken out would be an incredibly good deal!

In an instant, orders poured in like snowflakes to Cloud Sea Technology.

The contract manufacturers are working overtime. At the same time, Cloud Sea Technology has begun to build its own factories and establish an offline sales network to prepare for future expansion.

Humanoid robots are certainly not Cloud Sea Technology's only product.

In the future, more smart devices will naturally be launched to lead the progress of society as a whole.

··

I don't know when it started, but taking a lifelike robotic dog made by Cloud Sea Technology on the street has become a trend.

On the streets, you can often see stylishly dressed young people walking around with a Cloud Sea Robotic Dog on a leash, just like walking a real dog.

They play, frolic, and even mimic real dogs by climbing onto telephone poles and pretending to urinate.

When they see a real dog, they will react as if facing a formidable enemy, barking at each other.

Of course, you can also occasionally see middle-aged and elderly people who follow the trend walking their robot dogs while buying groceries, mainly for companionship.

In fact, many blind people have even started to use the robot dog as a guide dog.

Robot dogs are naturally far better at guiding the blind than real guide dogs.

This naturally translates into a steady increase in sales.

It's unrealistic to expect this niche product to sell hundreds of millions of units like a mobile phone.

However, even under these circumstances, Cloud Sea Technology's robot dog achieved sales of 300,000 units in its first month, and the sales trend showed a straight upward trend.

It's no exaggeration to say that it was a resounding success.

At the same time, the site for Cloud Sea Technology's self-built factory has been decided, and it has quickly entered the preparation stage.

Meanwhile, the offline sales network is also being built at an accelerated pace.

Of course, Cloud Sea Technology currently only has this one robot dog product. The immediate priority is to develop more products to enrich its product line.

With AI technology reserves far exceeding current technology, many products naturally emerge.

Various smart home devices are under rapid development.

Zhang Yang's 28th year was an incredibly fulfilling one.
