Chapter 58 Mirage Phantom
Some heavy-duty users spend more than 10 hours a day with the screen on their mobile phones. Under such high-intensity use, the battery of Stardust 1 is useless even if it is a pair, not to mention that it cannot directly replace the battery.

If you charge while using it, with a charging power of 5W, the charging speed is not only slow, but also the experience of using the charging cable is particularly poor.

Chen Zifan has experienced the era of full-scale development of smartphones. Some mobile phone manufacturers' charging power has even reached 240W, which alleviates battery life anxiety to a certain extent, but the power consumption speed has also become faster.

In the Stardust community, there are many discussions about mobile phone power every day, and there is also a special topic:
"I can't help it. I just can't help it. I always want to see if someone sends me a button, but when I open it, there is nothing but group messages."

"Now when I take out my mobile phone at home, my mother scolds me: Don't play with your broken mobile phone, let's see how short-sighted your eyes are?"

"Fortunately, I live alone, no one talks about me, but I can't help but stay up all night. I stay up late every day to read novels, and I'm in a trance when I go to work the next day..."

"Me too, I couldn't help staying up late, and my eyes were sore when I woke up the next morning, and there were double images..."

"It looks like a fruit slicer!"

"..."

As a result, various Internet masters jumped out to popularize Taoist culture, to recuperate, and to popularize Buddhism to purify the six senses. There are even some speech videos of "Hate Iron Can't Make Steel" and "Envy Evil Like Enmity".

"Smartphones are destroying us! Life is incomplete without struggle! Life without struggle is a waste of time! Think about your family..."

There are many similar chicken soup literatures. The smartphone is just a cover. It can be replaced with any of martial arts novels, TV sets, game consoles, and computers. In fact, the starting point of this kind of chicken soup is good.

It has also received a lot of attention, because most ordinary people in this era are fond of money and power, and there are countless stories of grassroots rising to become big men from all walks of life, which stimulates everyone to work hard.

Whenever someone says that they didn’t make any money, that means they didn’t work hard; whenever someone says that their academic performance is not good, that means they didn’t work hard; why can’t you if everyone else can do it?Isn't it because you don't work hard?
Even Chen Zifan's case was picked up by some newspapers, and he was warned by the authorities when he was just about to report, so there was no large-scale publicity.

It's a pity that this radical approach directly leads to the birth of a large number of masters of success in the near future, and even the airport is serving chicken soup for success.

Of course, not many people care about the remarks attacking smartphones, just like future Apple products, let alone se, the ipad standard version cheats people, clears inventory, scolds, scolds, sales are still high.

The same is true for smartphones. After finally making some money, who doesn’t want to buy a better mobile phone for fun? What?Can it be used?Is the button function of Stardust 1 and other brands at the same level?
In the Stardust Forum, everyone just complained about the problem of the phone running out of battery and charging slowly.

That's not a problem. If you don't buy a mobile phone for use, why don't you still offer it as an ancestor?
Fast power consumption and slow charging, Chen Zifan will solve this problem, first increase the battery specification of Stardust 2 to 3300 mAh, and then increase the fast charging power, it does not need to be fast, 20W fast charging is enough.

In addition, Stardust 2 has to add something that Stardust 1 does not have: the front camera, this thing is a big killer, not only solves the self-timer, but also tries to use beauty algorithm, face recognition, etc. .

At the same time, it will increase its attractiveness to female consumers and further expand the market share of Stardust mobile phones.

"So the focus of the Stardust 2 upgrade is to expand the size, upgrade the charging port, increase the charging power, add a front camera, improve the quality of the rear camera, and then add new functions through the Stardust OS upgrade!"

As soon as he said it, Chen Zifan went directly to the private laboratory in the core area of ​​the Stardust Factory and began to design the Stardust 2 model machine. Due to the addition of a front camera, the front face is basically the same as that of the Stardust 1.

"Equal width up and down, and equal width left and right..."

"In order to ensure visual integration, the camera also needs to be specially blackened..."

"Continuing the rear camera design of Stardust 1, we still choose the metal middle frame + glass cover..."

"According to the data feedback, although the glossy glass cover is not resistant to fingerprints, the sales volume is higher..."

Frosted glass is indeed more practical, but it lacks a bit in texture and is not "advanced" enough.

Stardust 2 is equivalent to the enlarged + upgraded model of Stardust 1, but the starting price will not change, it is still 3999, and the users of Stardust 1 may have a feeling of "backstab". thing.

The upgrading of electronic products itself is very fast. Stardust Technology's strategy of updating once a year is relatively slow. To create high-quality products, it is impossible to choose the same strategy as Android manufacturers.

Think about the Apple mobile phone and ipad that "Brother Kidney" sacrificed his kidneys in exchange for. Later, he could buy one for tens of dollars in the seafood market, but he himself was bedridden for ten years because of this, enduring great suffering...

"You must be sensible when dealing with electronic products, but if one day, Stardust Mobile becomes the ruler of the smartphone market, it can also reduce the frequency of updates..."

I don’t care about the upgrades of Stardust 2. With the workmanship and quality of Stardust 1, it’s no problem to use it for more than three years. In addition to Stardust 2, you can also choose the next product: Stardust Tablet.

Chen Zifan is not going to follow the original historical development track, first expanding from a small screen to a large screen, and there will be a long period of time in the middle, but he is going to make a 10.8-inch tablet directly.

"The right-angle frame of this size + CNC cutting and chamfering, together with magnetic protective cover, magnetic keyboard, capacitive stylus... But the hardware is not difficult, the focus is on the adaptation of Stardust OS..."

This is already attacking the laptop market in a disguised form. If Stardust OS takes this opportunity to launch some specialized office software, Stardust Tablet will be more comprehensive, not just an artifact for watching dramas.

"We have to inform Zhao Wushang to put some pressure on the Internet companies we cooperate with. No matter how slow their speed is, they can hardly keep up with our hardware development..."

Jobs is suffering, he still doesn't know what kind of situation Apple will face after entering the Chinese market. While Apple is building Apple 1, Stardust Technology has already begun to prepare for next year's challenge products.

After solving the product design, the next thing to solve is accessories and technical problems. Regarding accessories, Stardust Technology has its own channels. Chen Zifan notified Zhao Wushang to contact the supplier he has been cooperating with.

Then began to customize accessories according to the product size. Since no similar products had been produced before, the accessories of Stardust 2 and Stardust Tablet had to be molded again.

These suppliers were all dumbfounded after hearing Chen Zifan's request: "Didn't Stardust 1 have just opened a mold, and it's only been a few days, and you need to make a new mold?"

But they all signed a non-disclosure agreement, and they knew what to ask and what not to ask, just looking at the oversized frosted glass drawing and lost in thought...

"Do you have a phone this big?"

"Could it be an oversized MP4?"

"The protective case of what needs to be so big? Could it be that Stardust Technology is going to make a portable TV?"

"It's not impossible..."

Then Chen Zifan found Wang Jinli again: "I need you to help me find a keyboard manufacturer with trustworthy strength and quality, and customize a batch of keyboards..."

"Hiss~ no problem."

As for whether these suppliers will leak information... They are professional anyway, unless Stardust Technology deliberately releases some new product accessories information in their name, which is more or less the same.

Therefore, after more than ten years, the so-called "industry insiders broke the news" and "supply chain news" were all released by mobile phone manufacturers to attract a lot of traffic.

As soon as Stardust 2 and Stardust Tablet are two main products to be established next year, the busiest thing is not the suppliers, but Stardust Network. They not only need to update Stardust 1, but also adapt to Stardust 2 and Tablet.

In the Stardust network building, An He looked at the already busy Stardust OS engineer, and couldn't help feeling lingering in his heart: "Fortunately, I chose to make games instead of continuing to work on systems, otherwise I will be bald this year..."

Looking at the engineers in charge of Stardust OS, there is no one who does not lose their hair. There is a saying in the Stardust network: The less hair, the stronger the strength. Only bald men are worthy of Stardust OS...

In contrast, the game project team that An He is in charge of is much more relaxed. The racing game they are currently specializing in is called "Phantom of the Sea City".

It can be seen from the name that this is a dishonest racing game without a straight-forward theme. It has a name similar to games such as "Horizon", "Need for Speed", "Extreme Speed ​​Riding", and "Driving Simulator". .

In terms of gameplay, "Phantom of the Sea City" is more like an infinite test drive. It has a relatively open virtual map. The background of the story is that there is a giant floating city in the sky above the sea 120 kilometers away from Haicheng.

At the beginning of the game, players can receive a single-person villa in the Floating City, with an initial capital of 5 yuan, and can choose to rent different cars at the brand car shop in the Floating City to participate in the racing competition in the Floating City.

In order to further obtain funds, buy cars, motorcycles, electric vehicles, or renovate your one-person villa. Of course, there is not only one way to obtain funds, but you can also complete some exploration tasks...

The gameplay of "SH City Phantom" is more in line with Chinese local culture, but in terms of production level...it is much worse than the Unlimited Test Drive that will be released next year. This is also impossible, after all, it is a mobile game.

The stitching chip on Stardust 1 doesn’t have such a strong image rendering capability at all, even the Dimensity 200 that Stardust Technology and MediaTek are developing is not good, so the main focus is on the simulator’s real…

If you want to pursue image quality, the current hardware level is really not up to standard. The current completion of "Mirage Phantom" is already considered high, and the news has not been released for a long time because there are still several rounds of investment.
