Chapter 547: Laying out the Bird's Nest exhibition, the three mobile phone giants reunite in the imperial capital


On October 23rd, frost fell.

Frost's Descent is the eighteenth solar term among the twenty-four solar terms. It falls on October 23 or October 24 of each year in the Gregorian calendar. It is the last solar term in autumn. Its arrival also means that the winter period is about to begin.

Imperial Capital, Bird's Nest Stadium.

After half a month of workers working in shifts day and night, the Bird's Nest Stadium is now full of Longxing Group "elements".

For example, at the ticket office, in addition to Chen Xing's three-dimensional license plate for photos, the words "Far Ahead" are also posted on the outer wall of the ticket office.

Not only that, the "way ahead" can be seen everywhere at the entrance gates of the Bird's Nest, as well as the viewing seats in the internal venue.

The first feeling when walking into the Bird's Nest is that there is a steady stream of "far ahead", as if a voice is shouting:

“Far ahead!”

“Far ahead!”

“Far ahead of our peers!”

"Far ahead, we have always been ahead!"

The layout guide of the Bird's Nest is none other than Chen Xing himself.

Because previous products were too "far ahead", these four words have been engraved in the DNA of every fan. As long as they say it, they will definitely think of Longxing Group and Chen Xing.

"Longxing Annual Science and Technology Exhibition" is Chen Xing's major press conference that he has prepared for nearly a year, and he has to control every detail.

For the previous Longxing annual meeting, the venue he chose was a landscape base, a one-to-one replica of the "fake bird's nest."

But this time, he chose a real bird's nest!

Why travel thousands of miles to choose the Bird's Nest Stadium in the imperial capital?

Very simple.

The Bird's Nest represents the dragon country's culture going abroad.

Before the 2008 Imperial Capital Olympics, the world's awareness of the Dragon Kingdom was extremely low.

How low is it?

Let's put it this way, even today, the Dragon Kingdom has achieved the point of maintaining one of the three in the fields of military, economy, and science and technology, but there are still many foreigners who think that the Dragon Kingdom is still wearing pigtails and living a life of poverty.

One can imagine how ignorant the world was about the Dragon Kingdom before the 2008 Imperial Capital Olympics.

It was also the Olympic Games that gradually gave Dragon Country a voice in the world, and more and more foreigners came to travel and spend money.

At first, many people didn't understand why the country spent 40 billion US dollars to bid for the Olympic Games. Looking back now, the country's strategic vision is beyond ordinary people's understanding.

Because this 40 billion not only created a reputation and promoted culture, but also brought a steady stream of foreign tourists and increased international trade orders. It was also after 2008 that the Dragon Kingdom's economy began to soar into the sky.

It is no exaggeration to say that this is a successful investment case that can be recorded in the history of Longguo in the past ten years.

Don't say far, just say near.

Chen Xing booked the Bird's Nest for a month and spent 100 million RMB in venue fees, which is equivalent to 3 million a day.

This is only the venue fee, but also miscellaneous money such as venue decoration fees, material costs, worker fees, personnel training, etc. It is roughly estimated that Chen Xing has spent nearly 130 million yuan for this press conference.

Sustained profits have already enabled the Bird's Nest Stadium to make back its capital.

It is worth mentioning that when Wang Fang learned that Chen Xing planned to rent the Bird's Nest to hold a press conference, she immediately contacted the general manager of the Bird's Nest Stadium and asked them to waive Chen Xing's cost of renting the venue, and also to Within our capabilities, we will provide necessary support and assistance for this conference to ensure a smooth ending.

If you were an ordinary person, you might have agreed directly. After all, just by brushing your face, you could save almost a small target.

But Chen Xing is also the CEO of a trillion-dollar group. Compared with a small goal, he cares more about human debts. This cannot be measured by money. You must be cautious when you owe money.

Before the renovation of the Bird's Nest was completed, it attracted batches of anchors. They stood in the area outside the Bird's Nest and introduced the venue details of the "Longxing Annual Science and Technology Exhibition". Now after the completion, no less than a hundred anchors came to broadcast the details. bit, covering all platforms.

Lin Xiaolong, who is a computer engineer and the live broadcast facade of Station B's digital product track, arrived in the Imperial Capital early. After hearing that the Bird's Nest was open to the public for visits, he immediately took a taxi to the Bird's Nest and opened the live broadcast room.

"Brothers, we have arrived at the Bird's Nest. Now we can see that in such a large circle outside the Bird's Nest, it has elements of the Longxing Group, such as the far ahead that can be seen everywhere, and Mr. Chen next to me. Set up a sign and we can take a photo and check in.”

Lin Xiaolong turned around in a circle and gave the audience in the live broadcast room an overview of the situation.

"Damn it, the big one over there is far ahead, and there is Mr. Chen standing there waiting for him, and there are promotional posters over there. It feels like the Bird's Nest is already in the shape of Longxing Group!"

"I also want to go to the Imperial Capital, but unfortunately I didn't get the tickets for the press conference."

"The 80,000 tickets were gone in the blink of an eye. Those who didn't know it thought the stars were holding a concert. Tickets for this press conference are too hard to grab."

"With so many people ahead of us, I don't know what big move Mr. Chen is holding back, or whether flying cars will make an appearance."

Watching the content of the barrage floating by, Lin Xiaolong glanced at the Bird's Nest ticket office and said: "You are here, buy the tickets and go in to visit first. Maybe there are many details in it that you can dig into."

Just do it.

He immediately came to the Bird's Nest ticket office.

As soon as he approached, before he could say anything, the sharp-eyed staff immediately raised his head and asked: "Do you want to buy a ticket, handsome guy?"

"How much?"

"50 yuan. The ticket expires today. It is not the ticket for the Longxing Group press conference. Please know in advance."

"Then take one."

Lin Xiaolong took out his non-live broadcast mobile phone, scanned the payment QR code on the table, and then paid 50 yuan.

[Alipay arrived, 50 yuan. ]

After hearing the announcement of the arrival of the account, the staff immediately handed over a ticket and reminded: "There are a large number of surveillance cameras installed inside the Bird's Nest. Please pay attention to your personal behavior to avoid unnecessary disputes."

"Okay."

Lin Xiaolong took the ticket and followed the instructions to the ticket gate of the Bird's Nest.

He was not in a hurry to check the tickets, but introduced to the audience in his live broadcast room: "This is one of the entrances to the Bird's Nest. We looked up. Just now we saw a small one hanging far ahead of the outer body in the distance. Now the big You can’t believe it, and along the way, it’s as if Mr. Chen is shouting in my ears that I’m far ahead.”

"Hahaha, far ahead!"

"It's really brainwashing to be far ahead. Especially the words "way ahead" can be seen everywhere in the Bird's Nest. It's like Mr. Chen is shouting in my ears."

"Go in and see Brother Bailong."

Lin Xiaolong didn't stop yet. After answering a few questions from the audience in the live broadcast room, he handed the tickets to the staff.

The staff member took the ticket and scanned the barcode of the ticket with the code scanning machine in his hand. After hearing a beep, he handed the ticket back and reminded: "There is a lot of surveillance inside the Bird's Nest. Please pay attention to your personal behavior to avoid causing any discomfort." Necessary disputes”

"Okay."

Lin Xiaolong didn't care.

When he actually walked into the Bird's Nest, he hadn't walked for half a minute when he suddenly froze on the spot, because the golden hall was also full of elements of Longxing Group, or its development process.

For example, in 2014, Chen Xing released photos of the Longxing X1 press conference, as well as photos of the Cancan X1 press conference, Geek X1 press conference photos, and Tianyu X1 press conference photos...

In addition to the process photos that can be seen everywhere, the Golden Hall also has many exhibitions, such as the world's first 120W star flash fast charge.

The world’s first general-purpose open space baseband chip.

The world's first foldable screen mobile phone.

The world's first conceptual model of a chip factory.

Each technological product on display has its own area and is protected by tempered glass. The embedded screen behind them also describes their detailed research and development experience, difficulties encountered and impact on the world.

For example, the introduction of 120W Star Flash fast charging requires solving the problems of metal contacts, power regulation chips, and current and voltage.

To solve the problem of metal contacts, industry standards must be overturned. Because the traditional mini-B interface only has 5 metal contacts, while the more advanced type-C interface has 24.

For example, if you want to refuel a 100-ton vehicle, is it faster to refuel with one refueling port, or with two refueling ports at the same time?

You don't need to think about it to know that if you refuel with two refueling ports, it will definitely be faster than one.

But overturning past industry standards requires great courage.

This is similar to when you were in school. The teacher may have made a mistake on a certain question. Even if you know that he is wrong, you still need to be mentally prepared and build up the courage to stand up and correct it.

Because you are not sure whether the correction will offend the teacher. After all, the teacher is the authority in the classroom. If you directly say that he is wrong, a small number of teachers who are more face-conscious will probably be unhappy.

"Every exhibit here has its research and development history and story written on it. I have to say that the ticket is worth buying."

Lin Xiaolong sighed.

Just now, he looked at the research and development process, difficulties encountered and future impact of Kaitian baseband chips. For the first time, he intuitively felt in an all-round way how difficult it has been for Longxing Group.

Not only him, tens of thousands of viewers in the live broadcast room were talking about it.

"It turns out that the rumors were true. Gaotong Company not only engaged in global monopoly and increased prices at will, but also cooperated with Pineapple Company internally and externally to try to kill our other local mobile phone companies."

"Kaitian baseband chip is really a desperate move. At that time, Longxing Group's book capital was already less than 500,000 yuan!"

"Half a million, this is not broken?"

"The cost of chip tape-out is too high, plus the foundry fee. It's a miracle that Longxing Group survived!"

"I feel like Mr. Chen can write a book about his experiences. I will definitely collect it."

No one expected that the technological products displayed in the Golden Hall of the Bird's Nest would actually come with stories behind them.

As Lin Xiaolong's news spread on the Internet, more and more tourists who had arrived in the imperial capital, were still lying down in hotels, or going to the Forbidden City or the Great Wall to check in, came to the Bird's Nest to check in.

They are all spectators who have already grabbed tickets and are preparing to attend the science and technology exhibition.

Lin Xiaolong watched the stories behind them one by one, because ordinary people simply couldn't understand many things.

For example, the blockade and suppression of semiconductor chips. Who would have thought that three years ago, the advanced technologies of photolithography machines, semiconductor chip raw materials, and EDA chip design software were all firmly controlled by foreign countries?

Behind every chip represents a breakthrough in one or even several technologies.

……

And at the same time.

other side.

Rebus's imperial villa.

After learning that Chen Xing was going to hold a press conference, he hurried back to Long Kingdom and took Chen Xing to his home.

After the two briefly reminisced about old times, Rebus looked at the housekeeper at home and said, "Uncle Liu, take out the specialties of the Imperial Capital that I bought specially for Brother Chen and let him have a taste."

"Okay."

Uncle Liu quickly went to make arrangements.

Chen Xing heard the conversation between the two and asked curiously: "What specialty is it?"

"You'll find out later."

Rebus gave it a try.

Not a moment.

Uncle Liu picked up a bowl of bean juice, burnt rings, and authentic roast duck and placed them on the table in front of the two of them.

"Please use it slowly."

After Uncle Liu finished speaking, he stood aside.

Chen Xing looked at the bowl of soup on the table, swallowed his saliva and said, "Isn't this the legendary story where the business only relies on soybean juice from outsiders?"

Although he came to the Imperial Capital during this period, he spent most of his time preparing for the "Longxing Annual Science and Technology Exhibition" and did not hang out.

Although he has not experienced life in the imperial capital, he has heard of the famous bean juice.

After all, it is already very noisy on the Dragon Kingdom Internet, and there are signs of discerning who is more delicious, salty rice dumplings or sweet rice dumplings.

People who are not used to drinking it think it is like drinking water overnight, but people who like drinking it think it is a must-have drink to cool down and relieve the heat.

"Correct answer, specially prepared for you. When you come to our imperial capital, of course you have to experience the refreshing feeling brought by bean juice."

Rebus smiled.

"Don't force yourself if you can't drink."

Ren Guofei, who was sitting aside, tried to persuade him.

Since the press conference was approaching, he didn't want to miss it, so he came to the Imperial Capital early to meet Chen Xing and Rebus.

"Then let me try?"

Chen Xing also wants to experience it.

For urban tourism, no matter what you like or don't like, you should maintain basic respect.

And traveling is not just about checking in at a place, it is actually about experiencing the local culture and enriching your life.

For example, if you are from the south and go to the north, you can try sweet rice dumplings and salty tofu, taste them to see if they taste good, and think about why they like to eat them.

In the same way, if you are from the north and go to the south, you can also eat salty rice dumplings, sweet tofu, or other things that are very different from the northern culture to experience the local culture.

It may seem uncomfortable, but it actually represents the history and culture of a certain place.

"Try it."

Rebus took out his phone in anticipation, wanting to record the scene of Chen Xing vomiting.

Of the ten southerners, not to mention nine, seven or eight were not used to Douzhi, so he just wanted to tease Chen Xing and capture that moment to post on WeChat Moments.

Chen Xing picked up the bowl, took a sip, and then put it down calmly.

"It's okay."

he commented.

"Okay?" Rebus was stunned, and then asked: "How does it taste? Does it taste good or bad? This is very important to me."

"Do you really want to say it?"

"You said, it's better to add some adjectives."

"Just how to say..."

Chen Xing thought about it carefully, then looked at Rebus and said, "It tastes a bit like licking the creaky nest of a 60-year-old man in 40-degree weather. It doesn't taste very good."
