Great country technology, I have a system where hard work pays off!

#91 - Steve Jobs to attend the geek smartphone launch event?

August 8, 2008, Thiel Laboratory.

The research and development department was a hive of activity, everyone appearing rushed.

Since October 2007, when China officially abolished the mobile phone license system, domestic mobile phone brands had been growing like crazy.

Accompanying this was an immense increase in the workload and pressure on the Thiel Laboratory.

After all, without mobile phone licenses, any company could produce and sell mobile phones.

As long as you sent your phone to the Thiel Laboratory and it passed the review, the phone would naturally be granted a market license.

Therefore, since October of last year, the Thiel Laboratory had become extremely busy.

"So many similar phones, can't a company like Apple or Meizu emerge in China?"

At this moment, reviewer Qiao Keping looked at the boxes containing the phones with immense annoyance.

After years of reviewing, Qiao Keping was extremely familiar with mobile phones and deeply disgusted by the ubiquitous phenomenon of simply changing the casing.

Speaking of which, the most serious offender in changing casings was the Nokia brand, earning it the nickname 'King of Casing Changes'.

Qiao Keping deeply missed the amazing feeling he had when the iPhone was first released, and he couldn't forget the hope that Meizu M8 brought him at the end of last month.

Qiao Keping admitted that the Meizu M8 was indeed far from Apple's iPhone, but it was China's first truly smart phone.

This represented hope, the hope for the rise of domestic mobile phones, so Qiao Keping naturally liked the Meizu M8.

"Di Di—"

Qiao Keping's phone suddenly rang. He looked down and saw it was a call from his leader.

"...Yes, leader, I understand."

Qiao Keping answered the leader in a fawning tone, then hung up the phone, his expression turning disgusted.

"Another favor to grant."

Cursing under his breath, Qiao Keping followed his leader's instructions.

He picked up a box labeled 'Geek Smart Phone' from among the many boxes, preparing to review it first.

"Ka Mi."

The moment the box was opened, Qiao Keping was stunned.

"The screen is so big—this size, this shape!"

Shocked, Qiao Keping couldn't wait to pick up the phone from the box and hold it in his hand.

"The feel of this aluminum alloy is so comfortable!"

The phone in Qiao Keping's hand was golden, with white stripes on the back similar to the iPhone 6.

In the upper left corner was a large rear camera and an LED flash. In the middle of the back was the brand logo: the word "Geek" handwritten in a calligraphic style.

Then there was the front of the phone. Unlike the first-generation iPhone, there was no physical button below the screen, but rather transparent glass touch buttons.

They were the multi-tasking button, the home button (return to desktop button), and the back button. Through these three bright icons, Qiao Keping could roughly guess their functions.

He pressed the power button, and the amazing boot-up screen appeared in Qiao Keping's hand.

"Geek, if you're going to do it, do it the best!"

Praising the catchy slogan in his heart, Qiao Keping took out the phone's parameter specifications.

"The Samsung S3C6410 processor? The same processor as the M8. Well, only this processor can support such a large screen."

Qiao Keping nodded slightly.

If he remembered correctly, the Samsung S3C6410 processor could support a maximum resolution of 1024x1024, which was perfect for supporting such a large phone screen.

Then, Qiao Keping officially experienced the Geek Smart Phone, and he was quickly shocked.

Because the Geek Smart Phone's experience was quite smooth, its fluidity was not lower than the iPhone's,

and it completely crushed the Meizu M8!

The subsequent game and software experience shocked Qiao Keping even more!

"China's smart phone industry is about to rise, no, it must be said that the rise also includes the independently developed Geek Smart Phone system!!"

This was Qiao Keping's evaluation of the Geek Smart Phone after a thorough test experience.

At the same time, the testers of the Geek Smart Phone did not only include Qiao Keping.

In fact, in order to speed up the testing process, Geek Technology simultaneously manufactured more than a dozen engineering prototypes and submitted them to the Thiel Laboratory.

Through Professor Bai Ze's upper-level connections, the Thiel Laboratory was able to test the Geek Smart Phone simultaneously, speeding up the approval process and accelerating the launch of the Geek Smart Phone.

Therefore, similar shocking and exclamatory words appeared one after another in the Thiel Laboratory.

Soon after, an Apple-like company emerged in China.

News that a smart phone similar to the iPhone, but even better, had been created by Geek Technology

also began to circulate in the domestic mobile phone circle.

However, because the content of this rumor was too exaggerated, and because the people at the Thiel Laboratory who leaked the news did not dare to expose pictures for fear of being held accountable,

there were no pictures, no truth, and no detailed parameter data. Under the current situation of only rumors circulating,

people in the domestic mobile phone circle did not believe that Geek Technology had really launched a Geek Smart Phone that could rival or even surpass the iPhone.

Time flowed slowly in this way. Under the promotion of Professor Bai Ze's network of connections and secret monetary incentives,

the review of the Geek Smart Phone finally passed on September 1, 2008, officially signifying that the Geek Smart Phone could be officially released and launched!

To this end, Geek Technology, which had been eagerly waiting, was naturally quite excited, and the long-prepared public opinion campaign was launched!

Geek Web Manager Software, Geek Computer Security Guard, Geek Chat Software, Geek Farm...

Geek Technology's own GG promotion channels all announced on this day that Geek Technology would be in two days.

That is, on September 3, 2008, the Geek Smart Phone would be released at the Bird's Nest Stadium.

In these GG promotion channels, Geek Technology did not introduce the hardware configuration in detail.

However, the looming, hidden in the mist or shadows, super-large screen and ultra-thin phone without any buttons successfully aroused the curiosity of countless people.

Among them, those in China who owned the first-generation iPhone or understood the iPhone exclaimed in shock on the spot.

Of course, Steve Jobs was not dead yet, and Apple had not yet used his death to publicize his greatness and indirectly push the iPhone to the altar.

So, in the eyes of many ordinary netizens, the iPhone was not very famous.

When buying mobile phones, people still preferred traditional brands such as Nokia, Motorola, and Samsung.

Therefore, there were not many people in China who knew about the iPhone, or even Apple.

However, knowing about the iPhone or not knowing about the iPhone had no impact.

Because that looming super-large phone screen gave people too much imagination.

Putting everything else aside for now, after seeing the super-large screen, people couldn't help but start fantasizing about the wonderful experience of watching movies and TV shows on it.

This naturally made major domestic mobile phone manufacturers, including Apple in the United States, pay close attention.

Among them, Apple paid the closest attention, and even Steve Jobs had decided to personally take a plane to China to attend the Geek Smart Phone launch event!
