Wind Rises 2005

Chapter 592 What happened?

"Ladies and gentlemen, iPhone 3G truly makes the mobile phone not just a communication tool, but a super smart terminal.

And we also equipped iPhone 3G with an ultra-large-capacity battery to ensure sufficient battery life.

上网可用5-6个小时，播放影片可达7个小时，听音乐则可连续使用24小时，即便是3G通话也能支持5个小时以上。

Apart from these awesome performances, are there any surprises?

Of course there is, that’s GPS!

In addition to obtaining positioning information from base stations and WiFi, iPhone 3G can now also obtain data directly from GPS satellites.

So in addition to positioning, you can now track your location in real time..."

Gang Leader Qiao controlled the phone on the stage while explaining the relevant functions and parameters, especially the GPS function that made the iPhone 3G shine.

But Ma Liang and the others didn't pay too much attention. They were all focused on waiting for Gang Leader Qiao to unleash Twitter's ultimate move.

Just when everyone was staring at the big screen, Gang Leader Qiao finally took action.

I saw him sliding the touch screen, and the mobile phone desktop switched to a separate new page. There was only a blue icon on this page, and the pattern on the icon was a white bird.

Below the icon is the name of the app - Twitter.

“Everyone, I would like to announce an even more surprising news, that is, Twitter will become Apple’s most important strategic partner.

To this end, Twitter has specially developed an App for iPhone 3G that is perfectly adapted to this model.

Starting from the iPhone 3G, all future iPhones will have the Twitter App pre-installed in advance, saving everyone the trouble of going to the App Store to download it..."

Gang Leader Qiao patiently introduced it, but the news instantly exploded and the whole place exploded.

What kind of trouble is this? Apple has never done this kind of thing. Why does it take special care of Twitter?

Twitter's approach to seeking financing from Apple was done secretly. The process has not even been completed yet, so it is naturally impossible to announce it to the public. However, this does not hinder the strategic cooperation between the two parties.

The outside world doesn't know this, so they will naturally be surprised.

"Hahaha, next is our Showtime..."

When Jack Dorsey saw that it was finally Twitter's turn to perform, he was immediately excited. Even Evan Williams and the others were so excited that they could hardly sit still.

Just when the entire Internet was shocked by the news, Gang Leader Qiao continued to demonstrate with an iPhone 3G.

“Everyone, next I will take a photo with everyone using iPhone 3G, and then share the photo on my personal Twitter account.

This is my first tweet, so you can look forward to what surprises there will be! "

After saying that, Gang Leader Qiao walked to the center of the stage, holding an iPhone 3G and holding it high, with his back to the audience, and took a photo of the scene.

Then he returned to the demo table, put the iPhone 3G under the camera again, and clicked on Twitter.

Gang Leader Qiao had never registered a Twitter account before. This time, purely to bring in private goods, he deliberately demonstrated how to send a Twitter message on his iPhone 3G, and then he temporarily registered an account.

Of course, there were many fake accounts of Gang Leader Qiao on Twitter before, but this time they were all cleared by Twitter officials.

The Twitter account on the iPhone 3G phone had already been logged in. Boss Qiao quickly edited a post and inserted the photo he just took, and successfully sent it.

The speed of 3G network is still worthy of praise in this era. At least sending a Twitter update is not a problem at all.

One word, fast!

But Jack Dorsey and Dick Costolo sitting underneath were very nervous.

Because at this time, all the programmers at Twitter were on alert, watching the abnormal response of the backend server.

After all, Gang Leader Qiao's influence is too great, and every time there is new news, it will become popular.

Even though Gang Leader Qiao has never registered an account before, Twitter has already experienced two serious outages because of him.

So this time Jack Dorsey and Dick Costolo made arrangements in advance, fearing that Joe's first tweet today would crash the Twitter website again.

But only the Big Four of Twitter know about this matter, and others do not have such worries.

Even Ma Liang and the others were completely unaware. He was staring intently at the big screen on the stage, wanting to see what kind of surprise Gang Leader Qiao would have after he posted his first tweet. In ten seconds, it only took ten seconds, without Twitter’s official push, the traffic came in droves.

After all, after Gang Leader Qiao registered and verified his account yesterday, he received countless attention instantly.

But fans have been waiting for a long time, but they haven't seen the idol post anything, which makes everyone happy in vain.

Unexpectedly, at today's Apple Developer Conference, Gang Leader Qiao posted a Twitter update on his mobile phone, and the entire network instantly went viral.

Fans retweeted it like crazy, and countless users flocked to Gangzhu Qiao’s account to watch.

This Twitter update is actually very simple. It is a group photo of the press conference, with a sentence.

"Hey Guys, I'm coming!"

This line of text can be described as a pun. It not only means that the Twitter account of Qiao Bangzhu greets everyone, but also means that the iPhone 3G is really coming.

If it were just that, fans wouldn't be so crazy.

The most important thing is that at the bottom of this tweet, the publishing terminal and geographical location of this update are clearly displayed.

[From: iPhone 3G, Moscone West Convention Center, San Francisco. ]

Anyone who is a hardware enthusiast or a fan of Gangzhu Qiao knows that the Apple Developer Conference is being held today.

But once this tweet was sent out, the content became less important.

Netizens were shocked that the iPhone 3G could send Twitter so conveniently, and the tweets were still so arrogant.

Now fans are completely excited, it turns out that using iPhone can be so cool.

This newly launched feature of Twitter was developed by Jack Dorsey and his team under Ma Liang’s reminder.

It was this feature that impressed Gang Leader Qiao, who agreed to personally post a Twitter demonstration at today's developer conference.

This is the big move that Jack Dorsey has been thinking about before. Although it is just a small function, its marketing and brainwashing effect is very powerful.

At least in early 2008, it would definitely give iPhone users an instant sense of superiority.

This sense of superiority has an undoubted positive effect on boosting sales.

Just looking at the crazy performance of the entire network at this time is enough to see how powerful this Twitter update is.

Ever since, fans have left comments under Gang Leader Qiao’s tweet to respond.

One, two, ten, a hundred...

In an instant, the comment section was flooded with hundreds of replies.

If it is displayed on a computer, there will be no problem.

But at this time, on the stage of the Apple Developer Conference, the big screen displayed the synchronized picture of the iPhone 3G in the hand of Qiao Gangzhu.

It was also the first time for Gang Leader Qiao to post on Twitter on his mobile phone. He had never noticed that celebrities like him had to turn off message notifications when using Twitter.

As you can imagine, the message notification tone on Apple's phone started ringing non-stop.

Under the crazy messages from fans, the message notification floating windows on the iPhone 3G popped up one after another, so dense that the notification tone had no time to broadcast.

No matter how powerful the iPhone 3G is, it cannot withstand the overwhelming messages from fans all over the Internet.

Ever since, Gang Leader Qiao was completely dumbfounded.

Because the iPhone 3G in his hand suddenly got stuck due to too many notification messages popping up from Twitter.

Gang Leader Qiao tried swiping the screen, but couldn't do anything.

The iPhone 3G seemed to be down at this time, and the screen remained motionless.

The entire audience witnessed this magical and dumbfounded moment, and could not react at all for a while.

What's the situation?

What did you just post?
