Technology company, I will become the light of China!

Chapter 397: Challenging the entire Silicon Valley of the United States with his own strength
The cheers lasted for half a minute, and no one expected that there would be a fourth flagship tonight.

Four flagship mobile phones were launched at one conference. This set a precedent for new product launches and was unprecedented. As to whether there will be others to come, it is still unknown.

But what is certain is that three flagships were announced at one press conference, and each had its own highlights, different price points and market segments. It is equivalent to Chen Xing holding three press conferences in a row, which set a benchmark for the industry.

Engage in internal competition?
Who has the Longxing Group coupon?
"Everyone."

Chen Xing, who was sitting on the podium, raised his hand to signal for silence. The enthusiastic cheers of nearly a thousand audience members made his eardrums hurt.

Not a moment.

The scene gradually returned to calm.

Everyone is looking at Chen Xing, anticipating the final brilliant series.

Since there is already a precedent of the Brilliant X1, users actually already know that the price of this phone will not be cheap because it is positioned in the high-end field.

This is like Chanel and Hermès. No matter how simple their product design is, maybe it is just an ordinary plastic bag, they dare to sell it for $1000 because the brand is a high-end luxury product. If you eat from the bowl and look at the pot, you are destined to end up empty-handed.

Seeing the cheers subside, Chen Xing spoke in a sincere and calm tone, "To be honest, we discussed the pricing of the Brilliant X2 for a full half month within our group. When the final price was decided, I couldn't sleep every night. I kept thinking about whether my users would scold me online for ripping off the leeks after setting this price, so..."

"Let me apologize to everyone first."

Chen Xing bowed respectfully and apologized for the third time facing the camera: "I'm very sorry."

"Ah this..."

"What's going on?"

"What's the price?"

At this time, the millions of viewers watching the press conference were stunned. The price of the phone had not been announced yet, but the CEO had already apologized to the users. What exactly was the price?
“It won’t exceed ten thousand, will it?” Lei Bushi couldn’t help but guess when he saw this scene.

"possible."

Ren Guofei nodded.

If it is a 10,000 yuan phone, then users really need to be given a shot of prevention, because the price has regressed by ten years.

From 2000 to 2004, due to backward electronic equipment manufacturing technology and low component production capacity, the price of ordinary keypad phones was over yuan, while branded phones were to yuan, and some could even be sold for over yuan.

Don’t think the prices are exaggerated. Electronic products like mobile phones, such as color TVs, also cost as much as five or six thousand yuan in the 90s, and prices of tens of thousands of yuan were very common. Computers were also electronic products that only the wealthy could enjoy. But what about now?

You can take away a large high-definition color TV for just one thousand yuan. If you think it is expensive, there are cheaper alternatives for a few hundred yuan. Not every household can afford a computer, but at least everyone can buy one if they grit their teeth.

With the development of the times, the prices of daily necessities have risen, but the prices of electronic products have become lower and lower, and their popularity among households has become higher and higher. The era of mobile phones and color TVs costing several thousand or tens of thousands of yuan is long gone and has become the memory of a generation.

Lee Jae-yong and Ku Ke, who were sitting in the front row, were a little confused as to why Chen Xing suddenly bowed and apologized. Could it be that the new flagship was priced too high and was designed to cheat people?
However, only Wang Sheng, CEO of Jingdongfang, knows that the Brilliant X2 is definitely not a product for cutting leeks, but a true epoch-making masterpiece that will likely redefine high-end mobile phones.

When everyone was curious about the price, Chen Xing stood up again, without beating around the bush, and directly pressed the remote control in his palm and said, "The ten thousand yuan model, the Brilliant X2, welcome to taste it."

"Wow—"

"Ten thousand yuan???"

The moment the words fell, there was a burst of surprise at the scene.

"Really 10,000 yuan?"

Lei Jun looked at Ren Guofei.

"It's really ten thousand yuan." Ren Guofei also swallowed his saliva. They had never touched this price before, mainly because Apple and Korean stars, the two benchmarks in the industry, had not made their new flagships exceed ten thousand yuan.

"too crazy."

Duan Yongping widened his eyes.

Ku Ke, who was sitting in the first row, was shocked at this moment. He was very upset and said, "A 10,000 yuan model, could it be that there is some black technology to be announced?"

Scared!

He was really scared!

At an autumn press conference, Chen Xing announced so many advanced technologies that his brain capacity seemed to be overloaded.

Seeing that Chen Xing dared to price the new flagship at 10,000 yuan, he subconsciously thought that Chen Xing had more tricks up his sleeve and they had to be prepared to take them.

Li Jae-yong held his breath and his heartbeat gradually accelerated.

The prices of the four flagship phones cover the upper, middle and lower markets, and now a top-end model priced at ten thousand yuan has been added. Chen Xing's intentions are already known to everyone. It is clear that he wants to kill his competitors and will not stop until they die.

As Chen Xing pressed the button on the remote control, the LED screen image switched and the concept map of the appearance of the Brilliant X2 appeared.

The size is 7.82 inches and the thickness reaches 1.3CM. The OLED screen has been processed into a full screen. However, unlike the Tianyu series, one side of it has a right angle and the other side has a rounded corner design. It looks very disharmonious, which also caused collective complaints from the audience in the live broadcast room, and the barrage of comments was swiped wildly.

"7.82 inches, 1.3cm thick, I feel tired just looking at the concept drawing, it feels like it weighs a pound or two when I hold it!"

"I'm a design major. The exterior design of the Brilliant X2 goes against aesthetics. Human aesthetics tend to favor symmetry. This design has a right angle on one side and a rounded angle on the other. I can only say that Mr. Chen may be in for a Waterloo."

“It’s really not pretty…”

"Just based on the appearance, I can't accept it. They dare to sell it for tens of thousands of yuan. Only fools would buy it. Anyway, I won't buy it."

Not only did the audience not buy it, even Lei Jun and Ren Guofei, including Kuo Ke and Lee Jae-yong, could not understand Chen Xing's idea. The asymmetrical corners were really ugly, even uglier than the notch screen used by Apple phones before.

You know, no matter how human aesthetics changes, symmetry will always be the underlying logic of aesthetics, because humans themselves are symmetrical and are accustomed to regarding symmetry as beauty.

Like daily objects, most of them are also symmetrically designed. The most common TVs, air conditioners, and refrigerators are all square or rectangular. There are no flat lines on one side and a wavy design on the other. This underworld aesthetic is destined to be niche.

However, Chen Xing, who was at the podium, ignored the user's words and introduced himself: "The Brilliant X2 integrates the Huaxia chip, stacked CMOS sensor, and 300W Xingshan fast charging. We have also increased its battery capacity to 1 mAh. When only talking, it can have an ultra-long standby time of at least 7 days."

The words fell.

The press conference was relatively calm.

The Brilliant X2 did not give them a stunning feeling, because these technologies have just been announced and applied to other sub-series models. Users are not fools and they all have their own ability to distinguish.

After combining all the technologies, they dare to sell mobile phones for tens of thousands of yuan. Isn't this a complete leek harvester?

For a while.

The public opinion in the live broadcast room took a sharp turn for the worse.

"Waiting for nothing."

"The Brilliant X2 is a comprehensive technology model. It's not amazing, but it feels average. I don't have the money to buy it."

"Mr. Chen, please make the four corners symmetrical. This design of the phone is too ugly..."

"If it had a different design, maybe I would buy it, but it's so big and thick and not fashionable, it's hard to judge."

“I choose the Tianyu series.”

Everyone thought Chen Xing was holding back something big, but he ended up pooping a huge shit. The audience didn't have high expectations either, and some of them had already left the live broadcast room, planning to play games and wait until midnight to buy other brands of mobile phones.

"call--"

Ku Ke breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously.

When he heard that the fourth flagship model was going to be released, he was scared to death, thinking that Chen Xing was going to come up with some black technology again.

fortunately!

It’s just a machine for cutting leeks.

Li Jae-yong, who was sitting on the side, also breathed a sigh of relief. If Chen Xing really took out some amazing new gadget, he would not know how to respond. Longxing X3, Geek X2, and Tianyu X1 were already enough to give him a hard time. If he came up with a big move, Brilliant X2, he really didn't know how to deal with it.

Although it did not meet the audience's expectations, Chen Xing did not lose his composure at all. He continued to introduce the product with great effort: "The Jingdongfang OLED screen used in the Brilliant X2 uses flexible materials and supports a 120Hz refresh rate. In addition, its front camera also adopts a lifting design with a pixel of 900 million."

"Let's look at the back. Like the Tianyu X1, it uses a four-camera circular integrated module. The main camera is 2000 million pixels, there is also a 1000 million pixel ultra-wide-angle camera, and a 900 million pixel periscope camera, plus an 800 million pixel color auxiliary camera, which can adapt to a variety of shooting scenarios."

After explaining all the configurations of the phone, Chen Xing paused. There were only a few sporadic cheers at the press conference, and most of the audience obviously did not buy it.

The price of 2 yuan for the Brilliant X is beyond their affordability.

Longxing Group is a company that has grown from a small company to a large one and a troublemaker in the market. They all subconsciously believe that even if the Brilliant Series continues to follow the high-end market route, the price should be controlled in the 8000 yuan range. Suddenly raising the price to yuan is too much beyond their expectations.

Chen Xing still turned a blind eye and looked at the staff in the audience and said, "After introducing the specific configuration, let's watch the actual machine demonstration."

As soon as he finished speaking, a staff member trotted onto the stage and handed over a special demonstration machine.

Chen Xing took over the Brilliant X2 and showed it its appearance in all aspects. He said, "Because it is relatively thick, you may be more concerned about its weight. Please rest assured, it weighs only 312 grams."

"After talking about the weight, let's see if the photo is clear..."

Chen Xing first connected his mobile phone to the LED screen, then took several photos in succession under the projection screen demonstration, and zoomed in on the face of the person in the farthest seat:

"The distance from the podium to the last seat is probably more than 100 meters. At this distance, and in dim lighting, we can still capture the facial features of our user friend clearly, and even see the mole at the corner of his eye. I think it's amazing."

"Clap clap-"

The audience also applauded.

Being able to take photos of this quality in a dim environment is something that even the CEOs of Sony and Canon Group could not help but marvel at. It is already remarkable that a mobile phone camera can achieve this level.

Just when everyone thought that this was the full picture of Brilliant X2, suddenly the corners of Chen Xing's mouth slightly raised. This detail was accurately captured by Ku Ke. His heart suddenly skipped a beat, and a bad premonition arose.

"I have always emphasized that Longxing Group is a technology-based enterprise that focuses on innovation, and the Brilliant X2 also has its innovative features."

The voice just fell.

Countless people suddenly perked up.

“Is there really a big move?”

"Here it comes, Mr. Chen's ultimate move is coming. I knew that Brilliant X2 would not be that simple. There must be some unknown ultimate move!"

"If you don't understand, just ask, what other innovations can there be in the mobile phone field?"

"Chips? Fast charging? Lithium batteries? Information communications? Or other types of technology?"

While the audience was discussing the situation, the director had already zoomed in the camera, allowing the audience to see Chen Xing's operation more intuitively.

"The time to witness a miracle has come." Chen Xing predicted again.

Then, he placed his left thumb on the right side of the screen and quickly flipped it to the left. It turned out that under the 1.3CM thickness, there was a large OLED screen hidden on the side.

When the Brilliant X2 is fully opened, the folding OLED screen unfolds perfectly. The original right-angle design on the left is perfectly bonded without any gap. The appearance also changes from an irregular design to symmetrical rounded corners at the four corners. A small flat OLED screen appears in front of everyone like a miracle.

"What did I see?"

Lei Jun rubbed his eyes, shock written all over his face, which refreshed his understanding of OLED screens.

“Folding screen?”

Luo Hao was also stunned.

After a brief moment of shock, Ren Guofei also gave his evaluation: "Incredible! There are actually three OLED screens?"

“No, the larger OLED screen should be made of flexible material, so it can be folded. A total of two OLED screens are used.”

Duan Yongping analyzed.

"This is the innovation of our Brilliant X2. It adopts a keel hinge folding design and has two built-in OLED screens of different sizes, allowing you to switch between mobile phones and tablets. It also supports dual-screen mode." Chen Xing emphasized, waiting for feedback from on-site users.

one second.

two seconds.

three seconds.

The press conference was eerily quiet.

But the next second, Lin Xiaolong reacted and shouted: "Awesome, Mr. Chen is awesome, so far ahead!"

The sound interrupted the stupor of all the audience members, and they all woke up. The applause fell again like rain and like thunder, hurting Chen Xing's eardrums.

"Oh my god! Folding screen design!!!"

"I thought Mr. Chen would not make a low-level mistake in aesthetics. It turns out there is something else going on. It is an innovative design of folding screen!"

"Does this mean that if I buy the Brilliant X2, it's like owning both a mobile phone and an office tablet at the same time?"

"Fuck, that ten thousand is worth it!"

"I am too narrow-minded to question Mr. Chen's aesthetic taste. If you don't mind, I am willing to work at Longxing Group!"

"Others are cheating for food and drinks, but you're here to cheat for a job, right?"

The folding screen design quickly brought back the reputation of the Brilliant X2. No one expected that the OLED screen could be foldable.

Lee Jae-yong, who was sitting in the front row, was even more stunned, his mind went blank for a few seconds.

Almost no manufacturer doubts the technology of Hanxing Group's OLED screen, which is the benchmark in the industry.

Hanxing Group has also developed flexible OLED screens, but since they are not glass substrates and the polyimide material is too sensitive, it is easy to cause accidental touches. In addition, the color saturation is lower than that of traditional OLED screens. Therefore, Lee Jae-yong and even the designers of Hanxing Group have never thought of using this flexible OLED screen in the mobile phone field, let alone the concept of folding screens.

While Ku Ke was confused, he wanted to see how Lee Jae-yong would react, and when he found that the latter was equally confused, he knew that the man was once again far ahead!

Chen Xing was very satisfied with the press conference that had regained its vitality. He continued to explain: "Our flexible OLED screen is different from the traditional OLED screen. It uses polyimide instead of glass substrate and thin film encapsulation technology. It truly achieves the transformation from a mobile phone to a tablet."

"Some people may ask, tablets are all Windows-based, and only Windows can facilitate office work, so does the Brilliant X2 have a Windows system?"

“The answer is no.”

The moment the words fell, the audience couldn't help but exclaim, what kind of tablet is it without the Windows system?

But at this moment, Chen Xing suddenly changed the subject and reminded: "But our built-in Tianxuan system has PC-side functions. When the Tianxuan operating system was announced, I proposed to invest 10 billion to build an application ecosystem. This is not limited to mobile phones, but also applies to PCs. I also look forward to the majority of developers working together to protect this newly born system."

"Of course, our Tianxuan operating system can also provide the basic functions that a PC should have. In other words, this is actually a computer that can make calls, and it is also a mobile phone that can replace a computer."

"Fuck!"

"Fuck!"

"Fuck!"

After Chen Xing mentioned it, countless viewers suddenly remembered that the subsidy for the Tianxuan operating system was announced before for this moment, and all the results have been closed.

Now it's not just the Google CEO who is nervous, but also Microsoft CEO Gerry van Murik, who has just taken office and hasn't even warmed up to the seat yet, is starting to get nervous.

"madman!"

"This is a lunatic!"

“Is he going to challenge the entire Silicon Valley?”

Gerry Van Muerik shouted.

I thought he could stay out of this live broadcast because Microsoft's main business is on the PC side and it doesn't care about the mobile side at all.

But he never expected that Chen Xing's hand would reach so far that it not only touched the interests of Google's Android system, but also the interests of Microsoft's Windows system. This was the rhythm of a full-scale "war" against Silicon Valley companies.

Chip VS Qualcomm, Nvidia, AMD.

Operating Systems vs. Google and Microsoft.

Mobile phone VS Apple.

Cars vs. Tesla.

In addition to online shopping, are there any other practical technology companies in Silicon Valley?

It is no exaggeration to say that Chen Xing is now challenging the entire Silicon Valley technology companies on his own, and the battle is in multiple fields.

Not only Gerry Van Murik was calling Chen Xing a madman, but Renato Marotta, Lyle Wallace, Robert Heavey, Davichi, and the Jewish consortium who were watching the live broadcast behind them were also secretly calling Chen Xing a madman.

After chips, we will do information communications, and after information communications, we will do operating systems. After operating systems, what next?
What else are you doing?
They couldn’t imagine it!
Every step Chen Xing takes is like stabbing a knife into the aorta of Silicon Valley companies. Before they know it, Longxing Group has become a multinational giant that they have to look up to!

Masick was a little suffocated at the press conference. Chen Xing's layout was far beyond his imagination. Now he could answer that after this man finished working on the operating system, he would work on electric cars and declare war on his Tesla.

Challenging the entire Silicon Valley on his own, even Masick had to admit that Chen Xing's vision and vision were beyond everyone's expectations.

"It's crazy."

Marsik muttered to himself.

As soon as he finished speaking, Nvidia founder Huang Renxun, who was far away in the United States, also sighed: "One thing leads to another, Chen Xing, you are going to turn the entire Silicon Valley upside down!"

He is very glad that he "turned from darkness to light" early on. Now Nvidia has transferred part of its assets in the name of investment.

When the time is right, he can leave the United States, fulfill his agreement with Chen Xing, return to Taiwan, become a strategic partner of Longxing Group, and jointly develop artificial intelligence.

……

While Western giants were amazed at Chen Xing's layout, on the Weibo information platform, the entries of "The Chosen Operating System" and "Brilliant X2 Folding Screen" on the hot search list shot up to the first and second positions like rockets.

Click on the entry.

Countless netizens are commenting crazily.

[Ming Jing Jiuzhou]: "I declare that flexible OLED screens will be the general trend, and the Brilliant X2 is far ahead!"

[If I could do it again]: "It's okay to have four flagships at one press conference, but the key is that all four flagships have their own shining points. I am really crying for Mr. Chen to keep this half-year appointment!"

[Bald Monk]: "After seeing President Chen's 10 billion yuan subsidy and his determination to build a software application ecosystem, I have a feeling that the Tianxuan operating system will surpass Android, iOS, and Windows operating systems and become the domestic leader in the operating system field!"

[Meow Meow]: "At this time, we have to shout out the slogan of our star fans, far ahead, far ahead, we are always ahead, far ahead of our peers, far ahead!"

In the wave of "mobile phones turning into tablets", the Tianxuan operating system and flexible OLED screens have been pushed to the forefront.

At the Shenzhen press conference, Chen Xing folded up the Brilliant X2 under everyone's gaze and said with a faint smile: "Then, it's time to announce the price."

The words fell.

The audience spontaneously guessed the price.

"The standard version is 1, and the top version is 1.9!"

"Top configuration 20,000!"

"I think it's 20,000 too!"

"Be bold, thirty thousand!"

Since the price of the standard version had been announced in advance, the audience on site were guessing the final selling price of the top-end version of the Brilliant X2.

however.

They all guessed wrong.

Because there is no top-end version of the Brilliant X2.

"Let's not waste any more time and look at the price directly." As Chen Xing pressed the remote control, the final selling price of the Brilliant X2 appeared on the LED screen.

4+128G memory, Brilliant X2 standard version, 10000 yuan.

6+256G memory, Brilliant X2 Honor Edition, 11000 yuan.

8+512G memory, Brilliant X2 Collector's Edition, 12999 yuan.

"Wow!"

The audience was shocked again; this price was beyond their expectations.

For a moment, the cheers at the press conference were like a tsunami, and like a dark cloud covering a city, it brought a great sense of oppression to people.

“Mr. Chen is awesome!!!”

"Mr. Chen, you are my God!!!"

"Mr. Chen is far ahead!!!"
