Chapter 397 Single-handedly, challenge the entire Silicon Valley of the United States
The cheers lasted for half a minute, and no one expected that there would be a fourth flagship tonight.
Four flagship mobile phones were launched in one conference, which was the first of its kind for a new product launch. It was unprecedented. As for whether there will be others, we don’t know yet.
But what is certain is that three flagship models were announced at one press conference, and each has its own highlights, different price points and subdivisions. It is equivalent to Chen Xing holding three consecutive press conferences. This gives The industry has set benchmarks.
Involvement?
Who has the Longxing Group volume?
“Everyone.”
Chen Xing on the podium pressed his hands to signal for silence. The enthusiastic shouts of nearly a thousand audience members made his eardrums hurt.
A moment later.
The scene gradually returned to calm.
Everyone is watching Chen Xing, looking forward to the final brilliant series.
Since there is already a precedent of the Brilliant X1, users already know that the price of this phone will not be cheap because it is positioned in the high-end field.
This is like Chanel and Hermès. Even if its product design is simple, maybe it is just an ordinary plastic bag, but it dares to sell it for 1,000 US dollars, because the brand is a high-end luxury product. If you eat it in a bowl, Looking at the pot, you are destined to come up empty-handed.
Seeing that the cheers at the scene died down, Chen Xing spoke sincerely and calmly said: "To tell the truth from the bottom of my heart, our group discussed the price of the Bright X2 for half a month, and finally decided on the price. At that time, I couldn't sleep every night, thinking over and over again. If I set this price, my friends would scold me online for cutting leeks, so..."
"Let me apologize to everyone first. "
Chen Xing bowed respectfully, faced the camera and apologized for the third time: "I'm very sorry."
"Ah..."
"What's going on? ?”
“What is the price?”
At this time, the millions of viewers watching the conference were confused. The price of the mobile phone had not been announced yet, and the boss apologized to the users first. What price is this?
"Isn't it going to break ten thousand?" Seeing this scene, Rebus couldn't help but guess.
“It’s possible.”
Ren Guofei nodded.
If it is a 10,000 yuan machine, then users really need to be vaccinated, because the price has gone back ten years.
From 2000 to 2004, due to backward electronic equipment manufacturing technology and low parts production capacity, the price of ordinary button mobile phones was upwards of 5,000 yuan, and the price of brand-name mobile phones was 7,000 to 8,000 yuan. It can even be sold for tens of thousands of yuan.
Don’t think the price is exaggerated. Electronic products like mobile phones, such as color TVs, sold for as high as five to six thousand yuan in the 1990s. Tens of thousands of yuan were common. There were also computers. These are electronic products that only the rich can enjoy, but what about now?
High-definition color TV, you can take it away with a thousand yuan. If you think it is expensive, you can buy it for a few hundred yuan. Every household, not to mention computers, can at least bite the bullet and buy one.
With the development of the times, the prices of firewood, rice, oil and salt have increased, but the prices of electronic products have become lower and lower, and their popularity in households has become higher and higher. In the era of mobile phones and color TVs, which generally cost several thousand or tens of thousands. Gone long ago, it has become the memory of a generation.
Lee Jae-yong and Pou Ke, who were sitting in the front row, were a little confused as to why Chen Xing suddenly bowed and apologized. Could it be that the new flagship is priced too high and is specially used to cut leeks?
However, only Crystal Oriental CEO Wang Sheng knows clearly that the Bright X2 is definitely not a product that cuts leeks, but a true cross-generational masterpiece that will likely redefine high-end mobile phones.
When everyone was curious about the price, Chen Xing stood up straight again, without any mincing words, directly pressed the remote control on the palm of his hand and said: "The 10,000 yuan model, the brilliant X2, welcome everyone to taste it."
“Wow——”
“Ten thousand yuan???”
The moment the words fell, there was a sound of surprise on the scene.
“Really ten thousand yuan?”
Rebus looked at Ren Guofei.
“It’s really 10,000 yuan.” Ren Guofei also swallowed. They have never touched this price range, mainly because Apple and Korean Star, the two industry benchmarks, have not exceeded 10,000 yuan for their new flagships.
“That’s crazy.”
Duan Yongping’s eyes widened.
Pu Ke, who was sitting in the first row, was shocked at this moment. There was a huge wave in his heart, and he said very uncalmly: "Is it possible that there is a black technology to be announced for the 10,000-yuan model?"
Scared!
He was really scared!
In an autumn conference, Chen Xing announced so many advanced technologies that his brain capacity was a little too high.
Dare to price the new flagship at 10,000 yuan, he subconsciously believed that Chen Xing still had a big move to make, and they had to be ready to take it.
Lee Jae-yong held his breath and his heartbeat gradually accelerated.
The prices of the four flagship mobile phones cover the upper, middle and lower markets, and now a top-end model with a price of 10,000 yuan has been added. Chen Xing’s heart is already well known to everyone, and he has made it clear that he wants to kill his friends. , Don’t give up until you die.
As Chen Xing pressed the button on the remote control, the LED screen screen switched, and a concept map of the appearance of the Brilliant X2 appeared.
The size is 7.82 inches and the thickness reaches 1.3CM. The OLED screen has a full-screen treatment, but unlike the Tianyu series, one side of its corner is a right angle and the other side is an arc. The design of the corners looked very disharmonious, which also caused collective complaints from the audience in the live broadcast room, and barrages were posted like crazy.
“7.82 inches, 1.3CM thick, I feel tired just looking at the concept drawings. It feels like it weighs a pound or two when I hold it up!”
“I am a design major. The exterior design of the Bright X2 goes against aesthetics. Human aesthetics prefers symmetry. With this design of one side having a right angle and the other side having a rounded corner, I can only say that Mr. Chen may be in trouble.”
"It really doesn't look good..."
"Just based on this appearance, I can't accept it. You dare to sell it for ten thousand yuan. Only a fool would spend it. I won't buy it anyway."
Not only the audience. If they don’t pay the bill, even Rebus and Simon Yam, including Pou Ke and Lee Jae-yong, can’t understand Chen Xing’s thoughts. This asymmetrical corner is really ugly, even uglier than the notch previously used on Apple phones.
You must know that no matter how human aesthetics changes, symmetry will always be the underlying logic of aesthetics, because humans themselves are symmetrical and are accustomed to calling symmetry beautiful.
Most of the objects in life are designed symmetrically. The most common TVs, air conditioners, and refrigerators are all square or rectangular. There is no mention of flat lines on one side and a wavy design on the other. , this underworld aesthetic is destined to be a niche.
However, Chen Xing at the podium did not pay attention to the user's intention at all, and introduced himself: "Brilliant X2 combines Huaxia chips, stacked CMOS sensors, and 300W star flash fast charging. We also put its The battery capacity has been increased to 10,000 mAh, and it can last for at least 7 days when making calls.”
The words fell.
The press conference was relatively calm.
Cuican X2 did not give them a stunning feeling, because these technologies have just been announced and applied to other sub-series models. Users are not fools, they all have their own ability to distinguish.
After integrating the technology, I dare to sell mobile phones for tens of thousands of yuan. Isn’t this a leek harvester?
For a while.
The reputation of the live broadcast room barrages has taken a turn for the worse.
“My expectations were in vain.”
“The Cuican X2 turns out to be a comprehensive technology model. It’s not amazing at all. It feels quite average. I didn’t have the money to buy it.”
“ Make the four corners symmetrical, Mr. Chen, this design of the phone is too ugly..."
"If it had a different design, maybe I would pay for it, but it's big, thick, and not fashionable. It’s hard to comment.”
“I choose the Tianyu series”
I thought Chen Xing had a big problem, but I didn’t expect it to be a big one, and the audience had no expectations. Some have already quit the live broadcast room, planning to play games, and then rush to buy other brand series models at midnight.
“Huh——”
Put Ke breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously.
When he heard that the fourth flagship model was about to be released, he was scared to death, thinking that Chen Xing was going to come up with some black technology again.
Fortunately!
It’s just a machine for cutting leeks.
Lee Jae-yong, who was sitting on one side, also breathed a sigh of relief. If Chen Xing really came up with something new, he wouldn’t know how to deal with it. Longxing X3, Geek X2, and Tianyu X1 are enough. He's drunk a pot, and if he comes back with the ultimate move of Brilliant X2, I really don't know how to resist.
It did not meet the audience’s expectations, but Chen Xing did not lose his composure at all. He still introduced hard: “The Crystal Oriental OLED screen used in the Bright X2 uses flexible materials and supports a 120Hz refresh rate. , In addition, its front camera also adopts a lifting design, with a pixel count of 9 million. "
" Let’s look at the back. Like the Tianyu X1, it uses a four-camera circular integrated module. The camera is 20 million pixels, there is also a 10 million pixel ultra-wide-angle camera, and a 9 million pixel periscope camera, plus an 8 million pixel color auxiliary camera, which can adapt to a variety of shooting scenes. ”
After describing all the phone configurations, Chen Xing paused. There were only a few sporadic cheers at the press conference, and most of the audience obviously didn't buy it.
The price of 10,000 yuan for the brilliant X2 is indeed beyond their affordability.
As a company ranging from small to large, Longxing Group is a troublemaker in the market. They all subconsciously believe that even if the brilliant series continues to follow the high-end market route, the price should be controlled in the range of 8,000 yuan. Suddenly, Mentioning 10,000 is too much beyond expectations.
Chen Xing still turned a blind eye and looked at the staff in the audience and said: "After introducing the specific configuration, let's take a look at the real machine demonstration."
After the words fell, the staff trotted onto the stage and handed over the dedicated demonstration machine.
Chen Xing took over the brilliant X2 and first showed the appearance in an all-round way: "Because it is thicker, you may be more concerned about the weight. Please rest assured that it weighs only 312 grams. "
"After talking about the weight, let's see if the photo is clear..."
Chen Xing first connected his mobile phone to the LED screen, and then took continuous pictures under the screen projection demonstration. He took several photos and enlarged the face of the person in the farthest seat and said:
“The distance from the podium to the last seat should be more than 100 meters. At this distance and with dim lighting, We can still take a clear picture of our user friend’s facial features, and even see the mole in the corner of his eye. I think it’s still very impressive.”
“Bah bang bang——”
The audience. Also gave applause.
Being able to take photos of this level in a dim environment, even the two CEOs of Sony and Canon Group could not help but marvel. It is already very remarkable that mobile phone photography can achieve this level. .
Just when everyone thought that this was the whole picture of the brilliant X2, Chen Xing suddenly raised the corners of his mouth slightly. This detail was accurately captured by Ku Ke, and he felt a sudden thump in his heart, with a bad premonition. But life.
“I have always emphasized that Longxing Group is a technological enterprise that focuses on innovation, and Bright X2 also has its innovation points.”
The words just fell.
Countless people suddenly cheered up.
“Is there really a big move?”
“Come on, come on, Mr. Chen’s big move is coming, I knew that Bright X2 would not be that simple, there must be something unknown Big move!”
“If you don’t understand, what else can be done in the mobile phone field?”
“Chip? Lithium battery? Or other types of technology? ”
While the audience was talking a lot, the director had zoomed in on the camera to allow the audience to see Chen Xing’s operations more intuitively.
“The time has come to witness the miracle.” Chen Xing predicted again.
Then he put his left thumb on the right side of the screen and quickly opened it to the left. It turned out that there was a large OLED screen hidden on the side with a thickness of 1.3CM. .
When the Bright X2 is fully opened, the folding OLED screen unfolds perfectly. The original right-angle design on the left side is perfectly bonded without any gaps. The appearance also changes from an irregular design to four symmetrical arc corners, a small flat OLED The screen appeared miraculously in front of everyone's eyes.
“What did I see?”
Rebus rubbed his eyes, shock written all over his face, which refreshed his understanding of OLED screens.
“Folding screen?”
Luo Hao was also stunned.
After being stunned for a while, Ren Guofei also gave his evaluation: "Incredible! There are actually three OLED screens?"
"No, the larger OLED screen should be used It uses flexible materials so it can be folded, and a total of two OLED screens are used. "
Duan Yongping analyzed.
“This is the innovation of our brilliant X2. It adopts a keel hinge folding design and has two built-in OLED screens of different sizes, allowing you to switch between mobile phones and tablets. It also supports dual-screen mode. "Chen Xing introduced it emphatically, waiting for feedback from on-site users.
One second.
Two seconds.
Three seconds.
The press conference was eerily quiet.
But the next second, Lin Xiaolong reacted and shouted loudly: "Awesome, Mr. Chen is awesome, far ahead!"
The voice interrupted the dullness of all the audience, and the whole audience The audience also woke up one after another, and the applause fell like rain again, and like thunder, it hurt Chen Xing's eardrums.
“Holy shit! Folding screen design!!!”
“I said that Mr. Chen would not make a low-level aesthetic mistake. It turns out that there is something inside, and it is an innovative design of folding screen. ! ”
“Does this mean that if I buy the Cancan X2, it will be equivalent to owning a mobile phone and an office tablet at the same time?”
“Damn it, it’s worth a thousand dollars. ! ”
“It’s Mr. Chen who is too small for me to question Mr. Chen’s aesthetics. If you don’t mind, I’m willing to work at Longxing Group!”
"Others are cheating on food and drink, why are you here to cheat on work, right?"
The design of the folding screen quickly brought back the reputation of the brilliant X2. No one expected that the OLED screen was actually okay. fold.
Lee Jae-yong, who was sitting in the front row, was even more stunned, and his mind went blank for a few seconds.
Basically no manufacturer would doubt the technology of Korean Star Group's OLED screens. This is the benchmark in the industry.
Flexible OLED screens are naturally developed by Korean Star Group, but since they are not glass substrates, and the polyimide material is too sensitive, it is easy to cause accidental touches, and the color saturation is lower than traditional OLEDs. screen, so Lee Jae-yong and even the designers of Korean Star Group have never thought of applying this flexible OLED screen to the mobile phone field, let alone the concept of folding screens.
While Ku Ke was confused, he wanted to see Lee Jae-yong’s reaction, and found that the latter was also confused. He already knew that the man was far ahead again!
Chen Xing was very satisfied with the restored "vital" press conference. He continued to explain: "Our flexible OLED screen is different from traditional OLED screens in that it uses polyimide instead of Glass substrate, and using thin film packaging technology, it truly looks like a mobile phone, but is actually a transformation of a tablet.”
“Some people may ask at this time, tablets are all Windows systems, only Windows. In order to facilitate work, does the brilliant X2 have a Windows system? "
"The answer is no. "
The moment the words fell, the audience couldn't help but say "ah", no. What kind of tablet is a Windows system?
But at this moment, Chen Xing suddenly changed the subject and warned: "But our built-in Tianxuan system has PC functions. When we announced the Tianxuan operating system, I proposed that we invest hundreds of dollars. Billion builds an application ecosystem, which is not limited to mobile phones, but also applies to PCs. I also look forward to developers working together to protect this newly born system.”
“Of course, the PC side should have it. Our Tianxuan operating system can also provide basic functions. In other words, this is actually a computer that can make calls, and it can also be a mobile phone that can replace a computer. ”
“Oh shit! ”
"Holy shit!"
"Holy shit!"
After Chen Xing mentioned it, countless viewers suddenly remembered that the previous announcement of subsidies for the Tianxuan operating system was for this moment. The results have all achieved closed loop.
Now it’s not just the CEO of Google who is nervous, but Microsoft CEO Gerry Vanmuliker, who has just taken office and is still not hot on his butt, is also starting to get nervous.
“Madman!”
“This is a madman!”
“Is he going to challenge the entire Silicon Valley?”
Gerry van Mulik shouts.
I thought he could stay out of this live broadcast because Microsoft's main business is on the PC side and doesn't care about the mobile side at all.
But he never expected that Chen Xing’s hand would actually stretch out so long, not only touching the interests of Google’s Android system, but also touching the interests of Microsoft’s Windows system. This is a comprehensive "comprehension" to Silicon Valley companies. War" rhythm.
Chip VS Gaotong, NVIDIA, AMD.
OS VS Google and Microsoft.
Mobile phone VS Apple.
Car VS Tesla.
In addition to online shopping, what other practical technology companies are there in Silicon Valley?
It is no exaggeration to say that Chen Xing is challenging technology companies in the entire Silicon Valley on his own, and he is starting a war in multiple fields.
Not only Gerry van Mulik is calling Chen Xing crazy, but also Renato Marotta, Lyle Valles, Robert Seavey, Davich, and the people behind them The Jewish consortium watching the live broadcast were secretly cursing Chen Xing a lunatic.
After finishing the chip, we can start information communication, and after finishing information communication, we can start the operating system. What about the operating system?
What else are you doing?
They can’t even imagine it!
Every step Chen Xing takes is like stabbing a knife into the arteries of Silicon Valley companies. Before they know it, Longxing Group has become a multinational giant they want to look up to!
Masik was a little suffocated at the press conference. Chen Xing’s layout was far beyond his imagination. Now he can answer that after this man has completed the operating system, he will develop electric cars and ask for his Tesla. La declared war.
To challenge the entire Silicon Valley of the United States on his own, even Masik had to admit that even Masik had to admit that the pattern and vision shown by Chen Xing exceeded everyone's expectations.
“This is crazy.”
Masik muttered to himself.
When he finished speaking, Huang Renxun, the founder of NVIDIA in the United States, also sighed with emotion: "One link after another, Chen Xing, you are going to turn the entire Silicon Valley upside down!"
He is very glad that he "abandoned the darkness and turned to the light" early on. Now, part of NVIDIA's assets have been transferred out in the name of investment.
When the time is right, he can leave the United States, fulfill his agreement with Chen Xing, return to Treasure Island, become a strategic partner of Longxing Group, and jointly develop artificial intelligence.
……
When Western giants were amazed by Chen Xing’s layout, Weibo information platform, the most searched entries for “Tianxuan Operating System” and “Brilliant X2 Folding Screen” It was like riding a rocket, heading straight to the first and second positions on the list.
Click to enter the entry.
Countless netizens are commenting crazily.
[Shocking Jiuzhou]: "I announce that flexible OLED screens will be the general trend, and the brilliant X2 is far ahead!"
[If I could do it again]: "One press conference with four units Forget about the flagship, the key is that all four flagships have their own shining points. Mr. Chen really cried to death for attending this six-month appointment!”
[Bald Monk]: “After watching Mr. Chen’s Ten Billions Subsidy and determination to create a software application ecosystem, I have a hunch that the Tianxuan operating system will surpass Android, iOS, and Windows operating systems and become the domestic light in the field of operating systems!”
[Meow Meow Jiang]: "At this time, we have to shout the slogan of our star fans, far ahead, far ahead, we have always been ahead, far ahead of our peers, far ahead!"
Under the wave of "mobile phones become tablets", Both the Tianxuan operating system and flexible OLED screens have been pushed to the forefront.
At the Shenzhen press conference, Chen Xing folded up the brilliant X2 under the gaze of everyone, and said with a faint smile: "Then, it's time to announce the price."
The words fell.
The audience spontaneously guessed the price.
"The standard version is 10,000, and the top version is 19,000!"
"The top version is 20,000!"
"I think it is 20,000, too!"
“Be bold, 30,000!”
Since the price of the standard version has been announced in advance, the audience at the scene was guessing the final price of the top version of the Bright X2.
However.
They all guessed wrong.
Because there is no top version of the Bright X2 at all.
“Without further ado, let’s just look at the price.” As Chen Xing pressed the remote control, the final sale price of the Brilliant X2 also appeared on the LED screen.
4+128G memory, brilliant X2 standard version, 10,000 yuan.
6+256G memory, Brilliant X2 Honor Edition, 11,000 yuan.
8+512G memory, Brilliant X2 Collector’s Edition, 12,999 yuan.
“Wow!”
The audience was shocked again. The price was beyond their expectations.
For a time, the cheers at the press conference were like a tsunami, and it was like black clouds pressing down on the city, giving people a great sense of oppression.
“Mr. Chen is awesome!!!”
“Mr. Chen, you are my god!!!”
"Mr. Chen is far ahead!!!"
