Wei Qingfan knew that Steve Jobs' time was running out, but since Apple had not announced the news, he naturally would not make any predictions.
If you want to truly compete with Apple, you must rely on R&D and technology, not words.
Of course, you can still use it occasionally, but you have to have some bottom lines and principles.
Wei Qingfan did not express any further opinions on the best 35-inch screen. He just smiled and said: "In less than two years, PNE will also make the screen bigger, and it will get bigger and bigger."
This is what it means to be predictive, and his expression and tone are very determined. It seems that Jobs will slap himself in the face and overturn his own statement that "35-inch screen is the best".
Many viewers in the audience were surprised and excited, and several reporters who were invited were even more excited.
Regardless of whether Jobs would actually slap him in the face, Wei Qingfan's words were just a statement and meant to be provocative.
Domestic manufacturers have always been at each other's throats, but when it comes to foreign brands, they basically become obedient babies.
Steve Jobs and Apple are regarded as god-like beings. Not to mention challenging others, quarreling, and arguing, they treat and interpret other people's words and actions as if they were "sage words."
It seems that once Steve Jobs says it, it is the golden rule and cannot be questioned anymore.
Although Wei Qingfan's attitude was restrained, the meaning he expressed was very clear. He even claimed that Jobs would slap him in the face within two years, so they couldn't help but be excited.
"If what I said is wrong then, and the PNE screen will still be 35 inches in two years, it won't get bigger..."
Wei Qingfan stood on the stage and continued. He paused for a moment, as if he was thinking about making a bet or something, and then he laughed: "Everyone here, and everyone watching the live broadcast, come to me when the time comes.
I will give everyone the latest Guci mobile phone for free."
"good!"
Everyone likes to hear this kind of talk, and the people below agreed with a bang, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively, with whistles, applause, and cheers mixed together.
Many people regard pne4 as Steve Jobs's legacy. When pne5 was released, because the screen became 4 inches, some 35-inch party members angrily criticized Cook for going against Steve Jobs.
However, in fact, the PNE5 project had already been approved before Jobs was alive, and this was the last PNE that Jobs participated in the design.
Being slapped in the face is never a big deal for businessmen. This is called respecting consumer feedback and meeting consumer needs.
"In terms of processor, we upgraded from 8250 to 8260, with a main frequency of 15gz, and the performance has improved by more than..."
This processor has already been promoted at Xiaomi's press conference, so Wei Qingfan saved a lot of work and did not have to waste time to promote it. He hastily talked about the upgrade of the processor and memory.
The book-chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend I have known for ten years is the Changyuan app! It is so easy to use. I rely on it to pass the time by reading and listening to books while driving and before going to bed. You can download the anyan app here]
"Last year I announced our Lingxi voice messaging function here, and then Lingxi launched voice calls and video calls. Now, video calls have become an important way to communicate with friends in our lives..."
Wei Qingfan introduced the topic to the front camera. His tone was casual, as if he was chatting about daily life, "I often use it myself, because my hometown is far away and I can't go there often, so I taught my parents to make video calls.
Now they will make video calls to me if they have anything.
"However, during the use, I discovered a problem, that is, the 300,000-pixel front camera is too unclear. My mother often said that she could not see clearly. Some parts of the face looked moldy...
"I think this is also a problem that many friends have, so this year we upgraded the front camera of Guci Mobile 2 from 300,000 pixels to 1.3 million pixels! You can take a look..."
Two interfaces for opening videos appeared on the big screen. “On the left is the effect of opening videos with the 300,000-pixel front camera, and on the right is the effect of opening videos with the 1.3-megapixel front camera. It is obviously much clearer.
"In addition, we have also upgraded the rear camera, from 5 million pixels last year to 8 million pixels!"
Soon, after talking about the hardware, Wei Qingfan started to talk about the software, "A good mobile phone, an easy-to-use mobile phone, only the hardware is not enough. Our Guci Mobile 2 has the most powerful hardware configuration currently on the market.
But that's not enough!
"GuCi Phone 2 is based on the latest Luoshen System 25. Although it is not a major version update, it has been greatly improved. We have brought more than 80 functional improvements and four new features!
"The first one is Luoshen Cloud Service!"
This name made many people a little confused, but some people vaguely understood it, and then saw an introduction on the big screen, "Everyone who buys a new mobile phone should import contacts, text messages, call records and other data...
"This is very troublesome. Some are in the phone storage and some are in the phone card. When importing, some are duplicated and some are missing. It is very troublesome.
“This time, the Luoshen Cloud service function we launched has perfectly solved this problem!
"Everyone only needs to log in to the Luoshen system account and turn on cloud synchronization here. Your contact information, call records, text messages, and the contents of Luoshen notes will all be synchronized to the cloud server!
"When changing your phone, you only need to log in to your account, and the data will be synchronized to the new phone... You can even log in to your Luoshen account on your computer, check your text messages, and reply to text messages...
"We have encrypted the data so no one can see it except you! It's absolutely safe!"
Although everyone in the audience is a digital enthusiast, not all of them are hardware enthusiasts. Many people were even more excited when they saw this feature than when they just saw the hardware.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Hardware enthusiasts have also been satisfied. The hardware upgrade of Guci Mobile 2 is powerful enough, with top-level processor, 1g of large memory, and front and rear cameras.
Upgrading, what else are you not satisfied with?
"The second one is Luo Shen Notes. In addition to memos and to-do items, this time we have brought a computer version of Luo Shen Notes! It can be cloud synchronized with your mobile phone..."
The biggest improvement in this update of the Luoshen system is the cloud service. The other improvements are relatively minor. However, he naturally couldn't say this directly. He sublimated it with some witty words and repeated it according to the script.
After he finished speaking, he made a summary as usual, listed the processor, memory, camera and other data, compared Pne4 and Samsung, and then announced the price.
"Finally, the price is what everyone is most concerned about..."
Before the press conference, many people in the audience and before the live broadcast were looking forward to Guci mobile phones being sold at 1888 along with Xiaomi phones, and if possible, they would be cheaper.
However, after watching this press conference, no one dared to think of such a price reduction, and many people even thought that the price should be increased.
“It’s over, it’s over, I actually feel it’s very conscientious to continue selling 1999!”
“I’m very conscientious to begin with.”
"I feel like the price might be going up, 2299?"
"It's possible. Last year, 4G storage sold for 2,299. This year, 4G storage takes off."
"No, I'm already struggling in 1999, don't raise the price!"
"Then I'd better go buy millet!"
"It's just an extra three hundred. Isn't it much more cost-effective to buy Guci than Xiaomi?"
"There is no money, poor students cannot afford to live in poverty"
"It hasn't been announced yet..."
"I'm coming!"
There has been a discussion in the live broadcast room, and when I finally heard Wei Qingfan mention the price, everyone immediately opened their eyes and held their breath for fear of missing it.
"GuCi Phone 2 is divided into two versions, 4g storage and 8g storage... Among them, the starting price of the 4g storage version is..."
When Wei Qingfan said this, he paused, and then smiled brightly, "1999! No increase in price if the quantity is increased!"
"Ouch!"
"Bah bang bang!"
The audience below who were still nervous just now applauded and shouted wildly, very satisfied that the Guci mobile phone still maintained its original price.
What's 1888? Such a good mobile phone. It's wrong to criticize Xiaomi. It's wrong. You don't even bother to criticize Xiaomi. It's very conscientious to sell it for 1999. People want to make it cheaper. It's simply unreasonable!
"At 8:08 tonight, Guci mobile phone reservations officially started!"
“On April 15th at 10:08 a.m., it will officially go on sale!”
This sales time is already very early, especially when reservations start at night, which surprises many people because they don’t have to endure the hardship and they are eligible to buy after making a reservation.
The fans at the scene were even more at ease because they had the discount code!
Of course, many people have the idea of grabbing mobile phones themselves and then selling the pre-purchase codes to get some money back.
"This year, we still provide colored back cases for everyone to choose from. There are eight colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, white, black, and purple! The price is 69 yuan!"
“Removable battery, 99 yuan!”
"There is also a power bank with a very simple and beautiful design, a large capacity of 5000 mAh, and the price is the same 99 yuan!"
“In addition, there is also a mAh ultra-large capacity model to choose from, priced at 149 yuan!”
"This is our press conference today. Thank you for your love and support. We will continue to work hard to provide you with better, more affordable products..."
"On this side of the venue, we have opened an experience area. These products have just been released. You can go and experience them... Our press conference ends here. Thank you everyone!"
The entire press conference lasted less than an hour and a half, which was not very long, but Wei Qingfan was also very tired because there were basically no pauses and no one else to explain separately.
Most of the audience in the audience were ready to leave. Once they heard that they could experience it, they immediately gave up the idea of leaving right away.
The lights in the venue came on, and they found that there were mobile phones on the table next to the promotional posters, and there were staff standing nearby, waiting to explain to everyone.
Qian Yue's seat was relatively close. When he came to the table, there weren't many people around, so he was "allocated" to an experience machine.
This is a blue Guci 2 mobile phone. The first thing you feel when you pick it up is that it is wider than the previous generation, but it feels good to hold. And although it still has a plastic body, the workmanship is obviously much better.
He took out his own generation for comparison and found that the corner curvature of the new model has been reduced, making it relatively tougher and thinner.
I don’t know if it’s because of the new phone, but the plastic material of the body seems to have changed. It’s a lighter blue, but it looks bright and beautiful.
"Wow, this is much more beautiful than the first generation!"
Someone next to him was amazed. Qian Yue looked up and found that it was a girl. He nodded in agreement: "Indeed!"
After a pause, he saw that the other person’s phone was white, and said, “The white one of yours looks great.”
The other party smiled, turned on the phone, and continued the experience.
Qian Yue noticed that there was a companion beside him, a boy, who was looking at him with a strange expression, as if he blamed himself for stealing the conversation. He smiled a little awkwardly and lowered his head to try his mobile phone.
The default wallpaper of Luoshen System 25 became a lake, which looked quite elegant. He compared it and then swiped it on the desktop. He could clearly feel that the second generation was significantly smoother, which made him feel more and more itchy.
He went to experience various functions again, and soon forgot about the girl next to him.
