Shenchuan is preparing to release the Shenchuan Ark Star laptop computer jointly designed and developed with Changtian Technology a few days before the start of school.
This is a huge leap from desktop computer products to mobile computer products.
Prior to this, the mobile computer market had been firmly controlled by companies such as Lianxiang, IBM, and Dell.
From a technical perspective, desktop computer products are much less difficult than mobile computers.
After all, most hardware is a general-purpose product, and even ordinary users can buy the corresponding hardware in computer stores and assemble their own desktop computers.
The technical content of laptop computers is very high.
Its motherboard, CPU, hard drive, graphics card, etc. are much smaller than those of a desktop computer, and its performance still needs to meet the user's requirements, which is quite difficult.
In the past, Shenship did not have this technology.
Now Angda, controlled by Changtian Technology, can produce ultra-small motherboards. In addition, the carbon crystal hard drive and carbon crystal memory independently developed by Changtian Technology are relatively small in size, and the lithium battery has super long battery life.
Shenship should take advantage of the trend to launch notebook computers, and he believes that Shenship's notebook computers will definitely occupy the high-end market.
Wu Jun knew it very well.
If Shenship can succeed again in the notebook computer market, Shenship will become the world's first-class computer manufacturer.
Shenchuan has only been established for one year. If it can become the world's first-class computer manufacturer, this honor will definitely be unprecedented.
When a person lives his whole life, he either seeks fame or wealth.
Wu Jun certainly valued this honor very much.
Saturday, August 30, 2002.
This is definitely one of the most glorious moments in the history of the ship.
Wu Jun directly booked the Huaqiang North SEG Plaza and built a massive stage in the square to hold the launch of the Shenship Ark Star laptop.
When everyone heard that Shenchuan was going to release a laptop, they were quite shocked.
Shenchuan, which has performed very well in desktop computers, will officially enter the notebook computer industry. This will be a huge threat and challenge to top domestic brands like Lianxiang and international brands such as IBM and Dell.
At this time, many universities such as Yanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Yanjing Normal University, and Yanjing University of Science and Technology are negotiating with Lianxiang Yanjing dealers to purchase Lenovo Zhaoyang series notebooks.
Zhang Liang, the owner representative of Yanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, is a technology fan.
As soon as I heard that Shenship was about to release the Ark Star laptop, I quickly stopped the cooperation here.
Zhang Liang just purchased a Shenchuan Series 1 desktop computer during this period.
I have also installed Yinghuo OS, so of course I know the advantages of this system.
If a laptop can also use Firefox OS, what else does Windows XP need?
Stopping the cooperation immediately would be very detrimental to Lianxiang.
Lianxiang's dealer representatives had no choice but to turn their attention to the Shenzhen market.
Wu Jun's press conference came quickly and smoothly.
After comparing the performance of most laptops on the market.
The computer configuration of the God Ship Ark Star was directly announced.
AMD Athlon xp1800+ notebook chip series suitable for CPU.
The power difference between notebook chips and desktop chips in this era is not big, and there are no so-called low-voltage chips. The main issue is heat dissipation.
The motherboard is specially designed and produced by Onda for Ark Star, which can ensure that all the hardware is accommodated in a small size and the best performance of the hardware is exerted.
The memory is 1G carbon crystal memory from Changtian Technology, and the Ark Star high-end series uses 2G memory.
The hard drive is of course a 120g carbon crystal hard drive from Changtian Technology, and the low-end version uses 80g.
In terms of memory and hard drive, the performance of Shenship Ark Star has completely surpassed the mainstream notebook computers currently on the market.
In order to fit the memory stick and hard drive into the laptop box.
Therefore, the memory and hard drive of laptops are still different from those of desktop computers - smaller in size, of course, the performance is worse.
At present, most domestic laptops only have 120 MB of memory, and some even have 64 MB of memory, still using the SDram format.
High-end computers will use DDR format memory, and the maximum memory can only reach 512 MB.
The hard drive is even more pitiful.
In this era, if you want to have large capacity, you have to have mechanical hardware.
However, mechanical hard drives are large and heavy. It is very good for laptops to be equipped with 20g mechanical hard drives, and most of them are equipped with 15g EIDE format mechanical hard drives.
Of course, BM also has a laptop this year - Think PADA31P.
The top version can install 1gDDR memory and 40G hard drive.
But don’t think about this product.
The first is that its price is quite expensive, starting at 20,000 W. Except for high-end business people, ordinary consumers cannot afford it.
In 2002, the average annual salary of residents in Xia's second-tier cities was only 10,000 yuan.
The average annual total income of most people is only a few thousand yuan.
If you ask ordinary consumers to go without food and drink for two years to buy a laptop, you are almost crazy.
The second one is that there is currently no sales at all in Xia Kingdom’s market.
This Thinkpad computer is currently sold in North America, Europe and the Asian market. If Xia Guo wants to buy it, he can only bring the goods with him, or let a foreign trade company pay high taxes and fees for the purchase.
This comparison can highlight the advantages of Changtian Technology's hardware products.
Because Changtian Technology uses a carbon crystal storage format, the material itself is light in weight and small in size.
Very suitable for use on laptop computers.
Therefore, the performance of the Shenship Ark Star notebook computer is similar to that of a desktop computer, whether it is memory or hard drive.
It is easy for everyone to think that the Shenship Ark Core laptop must be much lighter in weight than a traditional laptop.
The high-end series of Shenship Ark Heart laptops are also equipped with entry-level graphics cards.
The biggest highlight of the new computer is the battery.
This computer is equipped with the latest high-efficiency lithium battery developed by Changtian Technology. In addition to being light in weight, the most important thing is long battery life.
The battery has a total of 40wh, and the regular use time can reach more than 8 hours.
Whether it is battery capacity or battery life, it surpasses all laptops on the market today.
Take the popular Zhaoyang series laptops sold by Lianxiang as an example.
Its battery life is only up to two hours.
That is to say, users can only use laptops to handle simple office applications without plugging in the power supply.
For most users, even if they buy a laptop, they still have to clean the power cord before using it.
There were a lot of people at the press conference, including reporters and ordinary users.
Wu Jun said: "With our optimization, especially with the hardware bonus from Changtian Technology, the weight of our Ark Star computer will be very light."
The corresponding parameters were announced on the big screen.
A certain brand's best-selling laptop weighs as much as 2.99 kilograms, which is 6 pounds.
The weight of the Shenship Ark Star laptop is only 1.2 kilograms, less than half of the former.
Chen Xiao hopes to design the notebook computer to be lighter, but the CPU, graphics card and related cooling equipment occupy the main factors.
For Chen Xiao, this weight is actually too heavy.
But for the audience at the scene, everyone was shocked.
