return to bolang life

Chapter 241 What a big tone!
Bolang has an old tradition of launching important networking products.

When it was first launched, it would not directly indicate its connection with Bolang in terms of publicity.

For example, the game "Journey of Glory" was launched under the name Guofeng Studio, which allowed it to develop independently for a long time.

Another example is "Application King", a product integrated into a new application store, which has not been associated with Bolang in publicity so far.

Now it is still operating the 'App King' on the Android platform.

The advantage of doing this is that it can be exposed and promoted at the right time, so as to obtain more traffic and attention, so as to achieve the best promotion and marketing effect.

And, if the market response of networking products is very, very unsatisfactory, until the operation is difficult, they can be discarded at any time, and Bolang will not be affected.

Now is the year when the Internet is booming, and it has not yet reached the age of information, and there are very few people who get to the bottom of it.

Anyway, it's a vest.

Became a higher level.

Inevitably affect word of mouth.

However, the way to promote the new system this time is different from the previous projects, and the momentum is huge.

The mobile phone business is the next core of Bolang, and the promotion expenses are very sufficient.

Some promotions are also well prepared.

The first is to build a forum around the system, and arrange a professional forum management team and user docking team.

Secondly, it has been comprehensively promoted in all domestic mobile phone, system, and flashing enthusiast forums.

Then it spent a lot of money to place advertisements on the Xiaochengshu platform and so on.

In the first hour of its launch, hot topics appeared on Xiaochengshu.

#The world's first professional game system【Star】recruit volunteers for a paid experience

#Born without fever!

The theme of this promotion is only one, throwing money.

The main promotional core is:
The world's first star system specially designed for games recruits 1000 paid experience volunteers from the entire network on a first-come, first-served basis.

Experience volunteers need to hold any mobile phone above Samsung Galaxy S3, HTC One X, Mi 1, Youth Edition, and 2.

After completing the 30-day system experience, all experience volunteers will receive a 1999 yuan electronic voucher from the hot sale mall.

In addition, there are 200 hot-selling mall electronic vouchers with a total of [-] million yuan and [-] shares, which are open to all enthusiasts who voluntarily participate in the experience.

Including promotional expenses, this wave has invested 500 million yuan.

Although Bolang Xiaocheng's operating status has not been used much, the publicity effect is still very good.

nothing else.

rich.

After a few months, the development situation of the hot sale mall is not bad, there is a premium product system, there is a small orange book diversion, and the small orange book brand partners cooperate with advertising promotion from time to time, and there are many shoppers.

The e-voucher in the hot sale mall has the same effect as the JD card. Since its launch in July, the sales have been good and the acceptance is not low.

Because this electronic voucher/card is very convenient.

Therefore, the news level exploded directly.

"Although, when I went to sign up for volunteers, there were already 1999 people in line, and I missed [-] yuan!"

"Fortunately, I'm ranked No. [-], within the top [-]."

"I'm lucky. I happened to be in the 999th place, and I almost squeezed out. I'm happy to mention 1999 yuan!"

"But it will take 30 days, I'm not envious at all, really!!!"

The first wave of discussions are all from the perspective of respective interests.

Then there are some complaints.

"I don't know if this star system is good or not, but the tone is really big. The publicity is too much. The world's first professional game system? I'm just stupid!"

"Yes, yes, they are all based on the secondary development of Android, what are you pretending to be!"

"I don't understand bullying ordinary people. Anyway, these mobile phones now say what kind of system they are. Don't look, MIUI and Flyme are talking about you! But this star system is too pretentious."

"One thing to say, the official website of Stars System is designed very carefully, with clear columns, clear sections, and a simple URL. It is called Stars. It is estimated that the English name will be introduced in the future."

"Now we're waiting for knowledgeable people to come to popularize the science. It feels like the sorghum is about to explode. They are born for fever, and here is one born for not having a fever."

"Hahahaha, indeed, the key is that the recruiting of volunteers is so targeted at the Mi series phones. There are a total of 5 mobile phones, and 3 are Mi series phones."

"Usually the louder the slogan is, the more the product is stretched. This has become a law, but with the Android guarantee, it should not be much worse, so let's wait for Mr. Lei to break the defense."

"..."

...............

These complaints are only focused on the first impression, which is a performance without physical objects.

The real discussion around the Stars system is centered on the Stars forum.

Li Ze arranged for 9 development engineers from the graphic interface design group, 5 development engineers from the kernel development group, and 5 development engineers from the component development group to enter the forum.

10 docking specialists were transferred from the game and platform department.

The forum account ID number is unified, and all aspects are very standardized.

Now the main external account is the account whose ID is the forum FAQ.

Forum FAQ: "All friends who sign up for the experience, please check the forum site shortlist, confirm the experience volunteer qualifications, and join the online discussion group of the forum according to different numbers. There will be a dedicated person to arrange the process. Thank you for your cooperation."

The framework of the forum online discussion group uses the template of the Web Xiaochengshu, which can stand the test.

Forum FAQ: "This post is a summary of questions, and visitors are allowed to speak."

Forum FAQ: "..."

FAQ is setting up a forum discussion system, and it is very busy.

1000 experience volunteers were arranged in 5 groups.

Other voluntary experiencers formed a discussion group on a scale of 1000 people, and all arrangements were in order.

At this moment, all the listed rules are being explained in detail in the forum online discussion group.

Administrator: "Because the Xingchen system is a mobile phone system specially designed for games, there are some special settings at this stage, and it is not possible to install any software from third-party sources. Apps can only be installed through the built-in app store;

Almost only game apps;

In order to prevent everyone from being too bored during use, there are a small number of apps such as Xiaochengshu and Hot Mall under Bolang in the app store. It needs to be specially explained that instant chat apps such as QQ and WeChat are temporarily unavailable at this stage, and maps cannot be used. App-like, all available apps are in the app store;

Of course, basic standard apps such as phone calls, text messages, calendars, memos, cameras, browsers, etc. are built in. "

"If you have any questions, please raise them. If you have any objections, you can withdraw from the experience."

Many people were stunned.

Experience volunteers can barely accept it, after all, the star system spends money to buy everyone to do volunteer experience.

In addition, those non-volunteer experience groups raised various questions on the spot.

"We can understand that volunteers are required to mainly use this system to play games. We are just experiencing it. Why should we restrict the installation of third-party apps?"

"Yes, yes, there are too many commonly used apps now, and the listed ones are too few."

"And why can the apps under Bolang come in, but not the ones under White Goose? It's almost impossible to leave QQ now!"

"That is, although we prefer to flash the phone, but the flashing is for a better experience, not for not being able to use anything."

Administrator: "The system version is treated equally, because what we need to collect is the real data about the game experience, and non-volunteers can refresh the original system at any time. Our forum provides free cloud disk service, which can keep the data without loss. "

"Because our built-in app store has established a complete app online system, which has similar rules to Apple's App Store, Bolang is willing to accept the terms to release the online app."

The caliber of this answer is actually a typical spring and autumn style of writing, and there is no mention of the white goose, but everyone will feel that Bo Lang accepts it, but the white goose does not.

However, the truth is that Bolang, the real developer, never thought of negotiating with White Goose.

There are many reasons. The core one is that the star system is still far from perfect, at most it is equivalent to Android 2.0 version, and it is slightly behind the 10/2.2 released in 2.3.

Regardless of ecology, there is also a gap at the bottom.

Even Sun Baoyin's recompilation of various apps has a gentle heart. Under this situation, how can third-party software manufacturers access it.

Then various precautions were popularized.

In short, all aspects are very particular.

Tell each non-volunteer experience member how to get the electronic voucher reward.

Any minor bugs are found and logged as feedback.

It is found that the operation logic is not easy to use and records the feedback.

All kinds of.

The overall conditions are very relaxed.

So, except for a very, very few people who could not accept continuing to be experience volunteers, in the end a total of more than 1 people downloaded the installation package and started flashing their phones.

All the problems encountered in the process were fully explained by the forum staff.

The mobile phone models supported by this version of the star system are only the listed Samsung S3, HTC One X, and Xiaosaoliang Family Bucket, including the Mi 2 that has not yet been officially launched, and other models have not been adapted.

Hmm... because of some unknown factors, the adaptation to the Mi series mobile phones is the best.

Even the Mi series part in the official flashing tutorial given by the forum is particularly simple and the easiest to operate.

.........

The big V user with the ID of "Jiuai" in Xiaochengshu is the 123rd experience volunteer.

He is a second-generation rich man, and the Mi Youth Edition he bought not long ago is his backup phone, so he didn't hesitate at all, and started flashing the phone directly.

After all, there is always something to do in an idle life.

Xiaobai's preliminary process of flashing the machine was completed quickly.

Looking at the percentage progress bar animation on the screen, Jiu Ai was very satisfied to share her experience on Xiaochengshu.

"The flashing of the star system is very simple. There is a percentage progress bar and a reminder of the remaining time during the flashing process, which is pretty good."

"It's restarted, let me see..."

At this moment, a female voice suddenly came out from the speaker of the mobile phone: "Welcome to use your little star, you can wake me up with 'Xiaoxing Xiaoxing', and I can play music for you."

Jiu Ai: "Fuck! I'm startled, there is a voice assistant right after turning on the phone, is it the same as Siri?"

So Jiuai shouted: "Hi, Siri."

He upgraded his iPhone4S to the latest version, which supports the Chinese version of Siri.

After a comparison, Jiu Ai suddenly realized that she had been cheated.

'Little Star' is far worse than 'Siri'. Of course, Jiu Ai doesn't know that this thing is just a semi-finished product developed by a team of Bolang Lab.

This wave of promotion spent so much money just to make users find trouble.

And it's normal to sacrifice a little bit for the sake of coolness.

Therefore, it is normal to be complained about.

After batches of users installed the Stars system with reference to the system installation package and flashing tutorial given by the Stars forum, complaints appeared in batches.

No matter how loud the publicity is, how ruthless this round of complaints will be.
