Chapter 794: Chapter 330: Virulent Virus Chapter 794: Chapter 330: Virulent Virus As time passed, China's Four Major Manufacturers finally started shipping their products, and the latest flagship smartphones that were pre-sold began to be delivered to consumers. And consumers who received their new phones were eager to explore the new functions, discovering many interesting features.

In Hang City of Lin Province, Shanghai, on a large public square, a young couple was trying out the functions of their new phones. The girl, holding up her phone with excitement, pointed it toward a clump of grass on the ground and said, “Big Dummy, take a picture for me, then identify the name of this grass and give me a brief introduction.”

With a flash on the screen, an image of the grass was captured. The girl's hand was shaky while taking the photo, but with the help of the Dream Assistant, the camera automatically stabilized the image, resulting in a very clear photo. Then, under the operation of the Dream Assistant, the phone's screen switched to image search mode, and quickly, information about the grass appeared in the search results.

A male voice then came from the phone, saying, “The scientific name for this type of grass is Couch Grass, but it's known by different names in different areas. For example, in the dialect of Ji Dong it's called Blunt Knife Donkey, and in the dialect of Northern Hubei it's referred to as Neibadu… It is an annual herb with some medicinal value. For instance, it can be used to clear heat, promote diuresis; it can also treat summer heat stroke, acute fright in children, jaundice, dysentery, gonorrhea, difficulty in urination; and it can prevent and treat encephalitis B. It's mainly distributed in the provinces throughout China, often found in wastelands and alongside roads.”

Hearing the introduction from the Dream Assistant, the girl said cheerfully, “I often see this kind of grass but never knew its name. Today I finally got to know it, and I didn't expect it to have medicinal uses. It's great to have the Dream Assistant, or I might never have known its name in my life.”

The girl's boyfriend said helplessly, “Qianqian, the Dream Assistant is indeed very useful. But not only did you set my voice for the Dream Assistant's prompts, why did you also give it the name Big Dummy? Every time you call Big Dummy, it's my voice that responds, and sometimes I feel like I am that Big Dummy.”

The girl replied with a smile, “That's my nickname for the Dream Assistant, and you're not even qualified for it yet! Besides, Big Dummy is quite smart, isn't it? Your IQ may not even be as high as its. So what's wrong with that?”

The boy felt somewhat helpless, as he never expected the new phone he bought to be so smart that it could effortlessly undertake all sorts of human-device interactions and perform a variety of innovative functions. Now, this latest smartphone had been claimed by his girlfriend, who also changed its notification sound to his voice, and used the Dream Assistant to play pranks on him all day.

The Dream Assistant only comes with thirty-three preset notification voices, but if you're unsatisfied with these thirty-three options, you can set your own notification voices, even providing your own voice template. The Dream Assistant would record the frequency of the provided voice template and then replace the system voice with this unique sound. However, this replacement could only be done with one's own voice; voices of celebrities from the Internet cannot be used as a replacement.

However, to meet diverse demands, Dream Technology was negotiating with some celebrities to record their voices into the system to serve as changable prompts for the Dream Assistant. Of course, if anyone chose to use these celebrities' voices as their prompts, they would have to pay a certain fee, and this fee would be reasonably distributed by Dream Technology and the providers of the voices.

The delivery of smartphones from China's Four Major Manufacturers to users led to a trove of new functions based on the Dream Assistant being researched and unveiled. Dream Technology found many business opportunities in these novel applications. Thus, they acted in timely fashion to grasp these opportunities, turning them into their profits.

With a little push from Dream Technology behind the scenes, a trend of sharing smartphone usage methods swept over the Internet. It was due to the continuous research and sharing by these people that the features of the latest Chinese smartphones were constantly developed, creating many unimaginable functions.

The method of photographing unknown objects in the square and using these photos to search for information and learn about these unfamiliar objects was just one of the minor new features of the latest smart mobile phones. Although the boy wasn't pleased to have his voice named Big Dummy, seeing his girlfriend so happy still made him feel very fortunate.

However, just as the young couple was happily photographing the unknown plant and learning about its properties, an enormous pet dog suddenly burst out from the bushes and knocked the girl to the ground as she crouched. Blocked by the girl, the pet dog, in a rage, opened its bloodied mouth and bit her on the foot.

With a scream from the girl, she saw a huge wound on her foot where the pet dog had bitten her, with flesh and blood mangled. The boy was shocked, he rushed forward, kicked the pet dog in the head, sending it tumbling. Then, picking up a wooden stick, he beat the dog until it howled, driving it away.
