Chapter 61 Super Speed ​​USB
From the end of July to the end of August, in just one month, major domestic brands have launched their own functional phones and pseudo-smart phones, including future famous manufacturers: Huawei, oppo...

It is also interesting to say that these two brands are not as eager to launch pseudo-smart phones as ZTE, Gionee, and Bird, but still choose button function phones, but they have made their own characteristics in terms of shape.

The products launched by Huawei are typical business functional phones. The size is relatively large among functional phones, and the appearance is very tough. There is also a capacitive screen on the front, and a capacitive stylus can be pulled out from the upper right corner.

Oppo's products are still old-fashioned button function phones, but on the back panel design, the unique smile + hidden camera is always impressive.

Some brands are eager to launch new products to occupy the market, while some brands are not in a hurry at all and are still on the sidelines. Such brands are even more terrifying.

Because as soon as they appear on the stage, the time is right and they are rushing to occupy the market, and there is no chance for other brands to respond.

"The market is in chaos, and there will be more spoilers soon, and the first-mover advantage of Stardust Technology will gradually disappear, but we are still the only one at the moment..."

Chen Zifan sighed slightly, and Zhao Wushang immediately responded: "Our product line is more streamlined, and the sales of the two functional phones 'Hai' and 'Xiao' are not as good as the original, but they can still sell about 1 units per month... "

"Further reduce production capacity, clear out the last inventory, and maintain it until June next year. After Stardust 6 is released, these two phones should be discontinued..."

"Understood, there is one more thing. At Xinghua Zhixing, the old director Chen said that their new electric car Chengfeng 2 is ready. The only thing missing is the instrument assembly. When will we prepare it?"

When Chen Zifan heard it, he cursed inwardly: "Damn, there are too many things going on recently, I forgot about this, I have to go and see how the progress is."

The so-called instrument assembly is actually a piece of LCD screen + Bluetooth module + management chip that can display more functions. For the current Stardust Technology, there is no technical difficulty, and it can be made casually.

What Chen Zifan is more concerned about is whether Stardust Network can free up manpower to improve the Xinghua Zhixing APP. This project team was established very early, but recently many people have gone to the Stardust OS department.

There is no way, the number of engineers required for the development of Stardust OS is too large, and the requirements for professional ability are also very high, and the official side has also contributed a lot.

Some complex and laborious development work was directly outsourced to official engineers. They used the source code of Stardust OS to create a fully closed system, which was used in certain security scenarios and showed excellent results.

Chen Zifan went to the Stardust Network Building to check the progress of the Xinghua Zhixing APP.

If there is nothing special in normal times, he really doesn't want to come to the Stardust Network building. There are three floors of security alone. Thanks to him being the chairman, if another ordinary employee comes in, his identity information will have to be verified several times.

After Chen Zifan found the project team and checked briefly, he found that the Xinghua Zhixing APP was already very high in completion and was ready to be put on the shelves at any time.

Now he was relieved, and he went to other project teams by the way, and he saw An He again in the game project team. When the girl saw him, the fierce look in her eyes seemed to kill someone.

"What's the matter? Did you offend her?"

Chen Zifan thought about the recent contact between the two of them carefully, and felt that there was nothing wrong... Then he shook his head and thought: Women are really inexplicable.

In fact, it’s just that the workload of the game project team has increased dramatically recently. The modeling drawings provided by those domestic car manufacturers are more difficult to handle one by one.

What to say: "What I want is the feeling of pushing the back with one foot of the accelerator! Do you understand the feeling of pushing the back? When you press down, the start is too slow, right?"

"And this body line. Is our car that ugly? You've made a good looking coupe. It looks like a volcanic village. Change it for me!"

"The exhaust sound is not good. Our sound wave has been specially tuned. It is best to add a flamethrower when the floor oil starts, the kind that sprays blue fire!"

An He: ...

She really wanted to say: "Please, can you see what your car looks like in real life? I've tried my best to make it look better, but it's ugly. What can I do? Really let yourself go in the game?"

In reality, everyone is obedient, but in the game, they all punch hard, and each one is more powerful than the other.

Chen Zifan didn't understand these situations, and he chose to trust the skills of the engineers of the game project team.

Going to work is so busy that you have to trot to drink water and go to the toilet. After get off work, you can play all kinds of entertainment, which has become the daily state of Stardust Network, or the entire Stardust Technology employees. I am really used to it, but it is actually quite good.

After returning to Stardust Technology, Chen Zifan directly called Chen Jianjun: "Hello? Dad, there is no problem with the instrument assembly. How many cars are you going to produce? What? 100 million? Are you sure?"

After hanging up the phone, Chen Zifan doubted his life, producing 100 million electric cars?Is this still his father who pursues small profits?Is Xinghua Zhixing so aggressive recently?Has it become a branded electric car?

Out of curiosity, Chen Zifan looked at Xinghua Zhixing's quarterly report. He didn't know it. He was startled when he saw it. Xinghua electric vehicles had already occupied 48% of the electric vehicle market in China, and the shipment volume was huge.

"Damn, it's so fierce!"

It seems that the number of trips has become less recently. If you go out a few more times, you will definitely see the Xinghua electric car that can be seen everywhere on the roads of Haicheng City. The price is affordable, the battery is durable, and the shape is very fashionable and beautiful...

Coupled with the prohibition of motorcycles in cities, and when the weather is good in summer, it is not surprising that the sales of Xinghua electric vehicles are high, but their development model belongs to profit-sharing dealers, who let dealers sell products.

There are not many brand flagship stores of Xinghua Zhixing, and there is no need to build too many. The advantage of distributing profits to dealers is that Xinghua Zhixing only needs to produce electric vehicles and advertise, and the brand expansion speed will be very fast.

The disadvantage is that the profit is low, and most of the profits are made by the dealers. However, this is not a problem at all for Chen Jianjun, who has been pursuing small profits. He has now figured it out.

Anyway, I have already earned enough in this life, and there is no shortage of money. What is the use of overflowing rice in the barn?

The price of Chengfeng 2 is relatively high this time, and the 100 million units are only sold to test market feedback. If there is a large demand in the future, the production capacity will be increased again.

Regarding the development of Xinghua Zhixing, Chen Zifan will not interfere too much. At most, he will occasionally pay attention to what is going on recently and promote it in the Stardust community. The rest has to be done by Chen Jianjun himself.

"LCD instrument, Bluetooth connection, recording of vehicle condition information, mileage, etc., keyless start... Actually, NFC keys are easier to use than Bluetooth keys..."

However, there is no NFC function on the Stardust 1. If there are no accidents in the next few generations of products, maybe only the Stardust 3 series will be available. The Stardust 3 series will be around June 08, and there will be more products at that time.

For example, the first new energy vehicle of Xinghan Zhixing will be released in the same year as BYD F3DM and Tesla Roadster. Whether it can be mass-produced in the end is still a question, and the sales volume should not be very good.

Another example is the first smart watch of Stardust Technology... This is just a plan. Whether the project can be approved depends on how MediaTek's chips are. If Helio does a good job, you can customize a watch version.

It’s too far to mention these now. With the entry of ZTE and other brands, the Chinese market is full of mobile phone products in three forms: button function phones, pseudo-smart phones, and smart phones. The confusion is extremely chaotic.

Even the mobile phone dealers don't know how to choose. Except for Stardust 1, which is the only model, the rest of them may lose money, so they can only choose some big brands that are popular in advertising.

Just when the mobile phone market was in chaos, and genuine copycats were dancing wildly, Chen Zifan was already preparing for the next generation of products. Stardust 2 and Stardust Tablet are naturally important, but there is one technology that is even more important:

"The problem of the charging port should be solved. I was preparing for it some time ago, but some USB technologies and products have not been collected. [Analysis of Shanzhai] and [Synthetic Creation] can't play a role..."

After Zhao Wushang helped collect USB-A and other mainstream USB technologies and products, Chen Zifan came to the laboratory in the core area of ​​Stardust Factory again, and began to [analyze counterfeits] its technologies and products.

Then some documents appeared in his consciousness, all of which were the basic principles and technical analysis of USB technology, but these were not enough, holding them could at most produce something similar to existing products.

[Analysis of Shanzhai] can obtain the perfect USB technology foundation, while [Synthetic Creation] can further develop on this basis, and Chen Zifan soon obtained a more powerful and perfect USB technology.

"The USB technology of lv.30 is equivalent to the original full-featured Type-C technology. In the future, it only needs to be upgraded. Wait? What shape is this?"

I saw that in the USB technology of lv.30, one end of it is not the flat oval C port that Chen Zifan knew, but a round port, similar to the round port of a 3.5mm earphone, no, it is not a 3.5mm port.

Looking at this technology, Chen Zifan was silent at the time. Looking carefully, he found that although the diameter of the interface is 3.5mm, the depth is not as deep as that of 3.5mm headphones, only about half of the depth.

"The round mouth is straight out, but the 3.5mm aperture is too big, and the direct strength is not enough if it is changed to a smaller one, so most of the flat mouths, wait, hiss~ can it still be like this?"

"Referring to this technology, it can be transformed into a flat oval port similar to Type-C, but...why should I take such an extra step?"

Just to cater to a future that doesn't yet exist?Worried about the unborn Type-C?Or are you afraid that the USB port of Stardust Technology will not be popularized?Can it be promoted by changing to Apple's Type-C appearance in the future?
Because it is Apple's technology, and there are indeed innovations, the flat mouth is more in line with the existing conditions, so it has been promoted quickly, but as long as some defects of the round mouth can be solved, it is not unusable.

Thus, in the core area of ​​the Stardust Factory, a project called "Speed ​​USB" was born, aiming to create a more powerful USB interface belonging to Stardust Technology.
