Becoming Rich with Daily Scavenging APP-Chapter 591: Large Order

Facing this opportunity, Chen Yiyang naturally had to kick them when they were down.

Of course, before that, he still had the technical team check his own platform to see if there were any similar issues.

The inspection results came out quickly, and there were none.

The technical team explained to Chen Yiyang, "This kind of problem is a typical technical debt from the early development stage. At that time, the platform focused more on transaction efficiency and did not fully perfect exception handling, financial risk control, and user experience details.

So according to our findings, these problematic orders are concentrated around 2018 or earlier.

We are a new platform using relatively complete technology, so we won’t have such problems."

"Since we don’t have these issues, there’s no need to be courteous with Ugly Group." Chen Yiyang said directly, "Prepare to hit the hot search and expose this issue."

Under Chen Yiyang’s arrangement, the hot search related to refund failures was posted that night.

Initially, Chen Yiyang just wanted to target Ugly Group.

After the issue hit the hot search, many users realized that not only Ugly Group but also many other platforms had similar problems.

Aligning with what the technical team said, the issues mainly occurred around 2018.

During that period, after users paid, even prepaid orders saw money transferred to the merchant’s account.

So, when users applied for refunds, the platform did not prepay the refund but initiated a deduction from the merchant’s account.

However, at that time, many small merchants transferred the funds elsewhere immediately after they arrived in the account.

Therefore, when the platform initiated the deduction, there was no fund in the merchant’s account to deduct.

And the system logic did not handle this refund failure process well. After multiple failures, the order status would be updated to refund success.

This made users think the refund succeeded, but in reality, the money did not reach their account.

Such an early-stage technical issue in the rapidly evolving business field was ignored by companies, with no efforts made to address these old problems.

Until now, when it was pushed by Chen Yiyang and exposed.

For a while, many major platforms fell into trouble.

For Chen Yiyang, this was actually a favorable situation. As various platforms started to address these old debts, he could take the opportunity to promote his own platform.

Being late also has its benefits.

"Congratulations on your triumphant return." Chen Yiyang waited for over ten minutes at the airport, finally meeting Wang Xingxing and others returning from the Imperial Capital.

The humanoid robot sports event ended today, and Yushu’s performance was excellent, earning the most gold medals.

Because of this, Chen Yiyang specially went to the airport to greet the returning technical team members from the Imperial Capital.

"It’s just empty fame." Wang Xingxing said after getting into the car with Chen Yiyang, "I just hope our company’s products sell better after participating in this event."

"Surely, this humanoid sports event was quite popular overseas as well."

Chen Yiyang wasn’t lying.

Recently, many overseas TV stations have covered this event.

Unlike the domestic critics doubting these humanoid robots needing human control, foreign TV stations broadcasted such news with more anxiety.

Especially noticeable in Japan and South Korea.

Because in this era, technology development is too rapid.

A technologically advanced nation can fall from a leading position in just a few years if it doesn’t keep pace with the times. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Nations with abundant resources can comfortably view technological progress with a peaceful attitude as long as their resources are not exhausted.

However, industrial nations become anxious if emerging technologies find their country lagging behind mainstream trends.

This humanoid robot sports event undoubtedly magnified this anxiety.

"Hmm, hopefully, overseas universities and research institutions will buy more of our robots after seeing the news," Wang Xingxing said.

After receiving investment from Chen Yiyang, Yushu has maintained profitability for several years now.

Of course, the bulk comes from the robotic dogs. Robotic dogs are quite useful in firefighting, ground inspections, and on the battlefield.

So sales have been consistently good.

But the humanoid robots are a bit lacking. The civilian market is limited; the main buyers are universities and research institutions.

"Let’s do this." Chen Yiyang said, "I’ll try reaching out to contacts and see if we can secure a big order for the company."

"Really?" Wang Xingxing’s eyes lit up.

"Given Yushu’s outstanding performance in this sports event, finding orders shouldn’t be too difficult."

Chen Yiyang originally intended to give Yushu’s team a bonus, praising their performance in the robot sports event.

However, on second thought, Yushu’s employees already have good benefits. Simply giving money won’t have a great effect in boosting morale.

It’s better to help Yushu secure a large order, encouraging the Yushu team to keep pushing in the robotics field.

After treating Yushu’s team to dinner, Chen Yiyang went to find Yang Chengru.

"Haven’t asked for your help in a long time." Chen Yiyang said directly to Yang Chengru, "Now that Yushu’s team performed so brilliantly in the robot sports event, our Lin’an Government should figure out how to provide help to such a good enterprise."

"That’s fitting." Chen Yiyang indeed hadn’t sought Yang Chengru’s assistance for quite some time.

As soon as he brought it up, Yang Chengru readily agreed.

"But what can we use these humanoid robots for? If you provide a direction, it’ll be easier for me to find someone."

Hearing Yang Chengru’s words, Chen Yiyang thought for a moment and then spoke, "The service industry, perhaps. Humanoid robots have limited use right now, but in the service industry, they can partially replace real people in serving customers."

"Alright, I’ll inquire for you."

Yang Chengru was quite efficient.

A few days after Chen Yiyang reached out, Yang Chengru called.

"Huaxia Mobile Lin’an Company is planning to purchase around 400 humanoid robots recently. I can help Yushu secure part of the order."

"Lin’an Mobile?" Chen Yiyang thought for a moment and asked, "Are they planning to use humanoid robots to replace receptionists in the hall?"

"Yes." Yang Chengru said, "Humanoid robots can also handle explanations and reception in the hall. This can free some employees from repetitive work."

"What do you mean by ’part of the order’?" Chen Yiyang wondered aloud. "Does that mean this order was initially meant for another company, and now, due to the local government’s connections, Yushu is getting a portion?"

"Exactly." Yang Chengru said, "I only found out about this order after inquiring.

If I hadn’t intervened, Lin’an Mobile would have placed the entire order."

"Which company were they originally planning to order from?" Chen Yiyang inquired.

"Zhiyuan Robot Company." Yang Chengru revealed the name.
