"There are 40 million to 45 million blind people in the world, and the number of low-vision people is three times that of the blind people. Among them, the blind and low-vision people in China account for 18%!"
"However, there are so many blind people, but we rarely see them in our lives."
"The world of the blind is far darker and crueler than we imagined"
Starting from September 15th, a 150-second commercial promotional film appeared on major TV stations and video platforms, and was broadcast on Weibo, Kuaiyin and other new media.
The protagonists of the promotional film are five blind people, including men, women, and children. Some of them are young children who are blind due to illness, some are firefighters and soldiers who were injured in firefighting, and some are family pillars who suffered from car accidents.
The lives of these blind people had lost hope, but when they put on a helmet with the same shape but a different color, and put down the mask, a miracle happened.
Blind children can run freely in the sun, laughing like silver bells all over the place.
The firefighters and soldiers returned to their units and hugged each other with their comrades.
And the middle-aged man who was so desperate that he wanted to commit suicide could touch his wife's face accurately again.
In the last few seconds of the promotional video, the screen was completely black, and then a bright light tore through the darkness, and the subtitles appeared.
"On September 30th, to witness the miracle, Xinghai Technology's first-generation digital optic nerve image transmission system (donts) conference, we cordially invite you to participate!"
At the beginning, this promotional film did not arouse much response, but on September 17, a big V in the technology circle initiated a topic on Zhihu.
"What do you think of Xinghai Technology's promotional video? "
This topic does not contain any sensational or eye-catching words. It seems ordinary and not eye-catching among the many hot topics in Zhihu.
It even gives people the feeling of "this big V is having dinner again".
However, such an ordinary topic has attracted a lot of heated discussions from a large number of people in the science and technology circles, the IT circle, and the biomedical field.
Many of them are high-ranking, powerful and famous, and their words are particularly weighty.
"Thank you for the invitation. I saw this promotional video on TV yesterday. Some people may be unfamiliar with Xinghai Technology, but I believe you must know that the blood test kit is produced by their family. It is said that it has sold tens of billions."
"After watching the promotional video, I was very surprised, because Xinghai Technology seems to have come up with a new product that can restore sight to the blind, and it has achieved commercial-grade mass production!"
"I happen to know a little bit about this aspect. At present, there are similar concept products abroad. The principle is to replace the optic nerve to transmit image signals to the brain by implanting chips, which is equivalent to re-architecting a pair of eyes for the blind."
"In fact, the principle of this product was proposed as early as the 1990s, but it has not been realized due to the technological level."
"And Xinghai Technology's products obviously go a step further. Without implanting a chip, just wearing a helmet can help blind people restore their vision. It is really shocking."
"Although it feels unbelievable, I sincerely hope that this is true, not a ppt!"
The above reply comes from a well-known bigwig in the IT circle.
"If this product is real, it will be of great merit!"
"I'm afraid it's a ppt!"
"Xinghai Technology bull beep!"
"Hehehe, it's a copycat. Microcan already has the same product."
"What's so sour, Myrican is so awesome, how did he come up with a big scam of dripping blood to test cancer, and even Bill's gate was recruited? Xinghai Technology has produced a product that can be used."
"Blind bragging, whoever believes is stupid!"
"I just believe it, you bit me?"
The topic on Zhihu was in full swing, and the popularity continued to rise, and soon it went out of the circle and ignited the flames of war on Weibo.
Some people are amazed that Xinghai Technology released another large satellite, some people looked on coldly and thought it was just a hype of a concept product, and some people @星海科技的官 v wanted an invitation letter for the press conference.
Whether it's a mule or a horse, you'll know when the time comes!
Therefore, entries such as #星海科技#, #donts#, #直人有救了# quickly appeared on the hot search list.
This is ultimately the result of some people fueling the flames, but the heat it brings is real.
Xinghai Technology's Weibo official v originally only had tens of thousands of fans, but it suddenly increased dozens of times. The latest Weibo, which is the number of comments and reposts under the promotional video, all exceeded 500,000!
Many people couldn't believe it, thinking that Xinghai Technology was bragging.
However, there are also countless people who are asking when this product will be launched, how much is the price, is it really effective?
Many of the people who inquired were blind family members. They seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, and they were eagerly looking forward to September 30, which is the day of the product launch!
This promotional film was also forwarded to foreign media platforms, which attracted a wider range of attention.
However, most foreign people are skeptical or even mocking. They don't believe that Xinghai Technology has produced such a black technology product, and think that donts are just conceptual products.
The purpose is to increase the valuation of Xinghai Technology and prepare for the listing.
"The promotional video is well shot, but what blind people need is a product that can really help them, not a false conceptual design that is hyped under the guise of helping them."
Some people say: "This is immoral!"
By September 18, the popularity of related topics not only did not diminish, but intensified.
Some bloggers keenly grasped a blind spot: "Can this product be used by normal people? What is its resolution, and can it replace VR glasses and realize virtual reality in the true sense?"
As a result, the topic was suddenly distorted.
"Ask the same question!"
"If the resolution is high enough Fuck! Then I can play action movies in my head, I love it!"
"My mother no longer has to worry about my myopia!"
"Have you heard of the Metaverse?"
"If it can be used to play games, that would be really cool!"
It has to be said that the wisdom of the majority of netizens is astonishing. They spontaneously conducted analysis and made clear the future development route of donts.
This is a huge market of trillions or even tens of trillions!
Someone got a glimpse of Xinghai Technology's ambitions.
As a result, the number of media who want to get invitations to the press conference has increased sharply, and people's attention to Xinghai Technology has doubled.
Facing the controversy, Xinghai Technology remained silent and did not take advantage of the current popularity to hype it up.
Just sent electronic invitation letters to some big v bloggers in major media, Weibo, Zhihu, station b and other platforms.
The press conference on September 30 will be held at the Shanghai Grand Theater.
?The media and individuals who received the invitation posted it one after another, which was considered to have attracted a lot of attention. </div>
