Chapter 1179 Speechless

Arielle gestured at the crowd to settle down before continuing, “I believe this price is affordable for most families out there. Of course, should anyone from low-income families require a bionic arm, we will give one to them for free once we have confirmed their financial situation.”

Jacob, who was already freaking out after seeing the price, lost his mind when he heard they would give the bionic arms out for free. “Madam Chairman, have you discussed this huge decision with the board of directors? I’m a director myself, and even I haven’t heard about this! Thirty-two thousand is way too low of a price! We won’t profit from this at all!”

The cost to produce a single bionic arm is about thirty thousand, and that doesn’t include the various other expenses like processing fees and publicity costs! We could suffer huge losses simply by selling them for thirty-two thousand each, and now she’s offering to give them out for free? Has she lost her mind? Does she want Moore Group to go bankrupt more than I do?

Arielle simply shot Jacob a glance as she said, “I believe you may have gotten the wrong idea, Mr. Campbell. Well, I suppose I am at fault for not making myself clear enough. I will be bearing the cost of the bionic arms that we give out for free by purchasing them at market price, so there is no need to discuss this with the board of directors at all. The AI designers and I had reduced the cost as much as possible when we worked on the bionic arm, so you don’t have to worry about the losses, Mr. Campbell. Although the price of thirty-two thousand won’t bring us a lot of profit, we will most certainly suffer no losses. Besides, products like these were meant to help those suffering from disabilities, to begin with. Moore Group’s success is attributed to both our own hard work as well as the support of the consumers. This, is how we can give back to those consumers.”

Jacob was instantly silenced by her response.

No losses equal profit, regardless of the amount. Given the low price, this product is bound to attract tons of buyers. Despite the small amount of profit made with each unit, we’ll still be able to earn a decent amount of money if we sell a lot of them. Since Arielle has offered to pay for the units we give out, the board of directors will have no reason to complain…

He had nothing to say in response as he knew Arielle had won by successfully winning the hearts of the consumers while ensuring that the company profits off the product.

“While designing the bionic arm, we actually ran into some issues with production, the programming, and acquiring the materials. However, Madam Chairman took care of all those problems for us. Not only did she have Sann Group—the leading authority in the international AI field—help us with production, but she also wrote the programming code herself. By allowing users to control the bionic arm with their minds, we were able to reduce the costs and make it even better than before. As such, all of us designers have no objections to the price of the bionic arms,” Kimi added.

Jacob got so mad that he nearly had a stroke when he heard that.

Sann Group? They’re the ones who manufacture the bionic arm? Now I see why Arielle dares hold the press conference today even though I practically bribed every AI processing plant in Chanaea! She had already found a backup plan for herself! I came here thinking I would get to see her make a fool out of herself, only to end up becoming that fool instead!

While Jacob was on the verge of losing his mind, the fans in the livestream were going crazy as well.
