The commercial robot performance rental market in China, which once thrived, has recently witnessed a sharp decline in rental prices. The daily rental fee for humanoid robots, which peaked at tens of thousands of yuan, has now plummeted to the thousand-yuan range. Some products are even being rented out for as low as two to three hundred yuan. This shift is mainly attributed to the increased supply driven by the mass production of robots, which has led to a surge in the number of rental companies entering the market. Moreover, the advent of official platforms has eliminated the information asymmetry premiums that once existed. Additionally, audiences are increasingly showing disinterest in performances that lack variety and are overly simplistic. The era when the industry could reap quick profits through information asymmetry has come to an end. Currently, specialized and content-rich robot performances are unveiling fresh opportunities. Relevant companies are actively promoting the seamless integration of robots into cultural, entertainment, and tourism settings. These settings not only generate commercial revenue but also provide real interaction data for embodied AI robots, facilitating model iteration and propelling the development of the embodied AI industry.
