The Urban Dao Child.

Yang Dao stood up and came in front of the mic under the thunderous applause. The boy had now become a well-known figure in the whole college. Everyone had an image of the boy in their mind. To some, he was an object of envy, he was an idol. The males wanted to be like him while the females wanted to be with him. 

His classmates have always been a center of attraction in any gathering they participate in because of his halo. During the past two months, Yang Dao's prestige has grown to such an unprecedented level that almost everyone could recognize him. To the people, Yang Dao was a figure shrouded with a mist. The more they saw him the curious they become.

The target of everyone's scrutiny tapped on the mic twice and said, "Hello everyone, thank you for joining us today. I have called you all here to welcome another product of Dao Technologies, Neo-Bot. As I have told you all in the past press address the purpose of this bot is to serve as a steward.

However, to uphold the name of the official protocol, I should still give you a detailed introduction of the bot." 

His frank tone caused a slight chuckle among the people. Yang Dao continued, "The people gave a lot of love and support to Robo-aid the cleaning bot we made. I hope you also welcome Neo." 

He extended his hand to the side and Yurika unveiled a bot covered with red cloth beside the guests. A red and white bot appeared in front of everyone. The bot had a square LED display for his face. The body was that of the human and the head was a television monitor. This design was made by RALF to make the bot more acceptable. 

If the people saw the bot looking like a machine then they will accept it easily. So RALF revised the design and made it look like a machine. Yurika pressed the button on the chest of the bot and the screen head lit up. 

The button was highlighted by a hexagon painted with red color on the chest. It was indulged with the surface to ensure a sleek design. The whole body of the bot looked in line with the human anatomy. What attracted the attention of the media was how the LED screen indicated a graphically smiley face. 

-.- 

Yang Dao spoke, "The power button of the bot is equipped with a fingerprint scanner. While a camera is hidden behind the screen. The moment the bot starts up, it will record the face of the person and take the first command from that person. The fingerprint will be required to access the bot's internal settings. Such as voice customization, monitoring modes, etc."

Following his words, the bot turned to face Yurika and a mechanical voice sounded, "Hello, I am Neo, your steward bot. How may I help you." 

Neo has now been upgraded from a medical assistant to a full-fledged steward. This was done to attract more customers. 

Yang Dao spoke up, "The bot you see in front of you is the prime model of the NEO-bot series. This model comes with medical monitoring, security monitor, and household aid. This series will have two other models. They will have a slight difference in battery life, color scheme, and features That will be described on the official website of the company." 

He motioned to Yurika who said, "Neo, go stand over there." The bot turned to look at the spot she pointed and walked over with fluid motions.

Neo-bot came to stand beside Yang Dao. The bot turned his TV face to the man and said, "Hello, I am Neo. Nice to meet you." 

Yang Dao replied, "Hello, I am Yang Dao. Nice to meet you." 

The bot and the man displayed a full conversation where the bot itself revealed the material in his body composition, these parts were no secret to the world. They had no effect on the sale. Yang Dao had already bought out all the factories manufacturing these parts. However, the bot was so clever that it avoided any and every question required it to the reveal any information regarding it's programming.

The media people were all looking at it with great curiosity and awe. They did not expect that the actual product will be so advanced than the prototype. It was as if a completely different product. The speech efficiency, movement fluidity, presence of mind. Everything was too good for the people. 

Yang Dao said, "This bot uses a special algorithm, the purpose of this program code is to learn and calculate any possible human behavioral change. This calculative ability enhances the bot to the level of a human teenager with average intelligence." 

His words shocked the people. They did not expect this when they came here. A media person could not hold it in anymore and asked, "President Feng, how much do you have to pay to buy this?" 

Yang Dao chuckled and asked, "How much do you think should this be worth?" 

The media person was stunned. He asked, "Sir, do not tease me. I am dying with eagerness. Please tell us." 

Yang Dao said, "Alright, Neo is worth fifty thousand carat coins. The company will provide the customers with a three year service warranty. Also, the other two model prices will be updated on the official website. As for the features suggested by the consumers. This was done as a surprise act of the company. If the people who made these suggestions will buy the bot. They will have the feature they suggested added in their bot. That model will be called NEO CUSTOM."

To think that Yang Dao was selling such a high quality bot this price and he was also providing a custom bot. This moment became the highlight of marketing world. The pre-orders of the bot shot to the peak. They could have crashed the manual server in this very instant.

Tonight Yang Dao came bearing gifts.
