Chapter 397: Challenging the Entire Silicon Valley of the United States with One's 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 in one press conference, which was the first of its kind for a new product launch conference.

But what is certain is that one press conference announced three flagship models, each with its own highlights, different price points and different segments. It is equivalent to Chen Xing holding three consecutive press conferences, which has set a benchmark for the industry. .

Engage in involution?

Who has the Longxing Group volume?

"Everyone."

Chen Xing, who was on the podium, pressed his hands to signal for silence. The enthusiastic shouts of nearly a thousand spectators made his eardrums hurt.

Not a moment.

The scene gradually returned to calm.

Everyone is watching Chen Xing, looking forward to the final brilliant series.

Since there is already a precedent of the Brilliance X1, users 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 or Hermès. Even if its product design is simple, maybe it is just an ordinary plastic bag, but it dares to sell it for 1,000 US dollars, because the brand is a high-end luxury product. If you eat in the bowl and look at the pot, That will definitely leave you empty-handed.

Seeing that the cheers at the scene died down, Chen Xing spoke sincerely and calmly said: "To tell the truth from the bottom of my heart, we have been discussing the price of the Bright X2 within our group for a full half a month. When the final price was decided, I spent every night I couldn't sleep, and I kept thinking over and over again. If I set this price, my users would scold me online for cutting leeks, so..."

"Let me apologize to everyone first."

Chen Xing bowed down respectfully, faced the camera and apologized for the third time: "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 confused. The price of the mobile phone had not been announced yet. The boss apologized to the users and vaccinated them. What is the price?

"Isn't it going to break ten thousand?" Seeing this scene, Rebus couldn't help but guess.

"possible."

Ren Guofei nodded.

If it’s a 10,000 yuan machine, then users really need to be vaccinated because the price has gone back ten years.

From 2000 to 2004, due to backward electronic equipment manufacturing technology and low component production capacity, the price of ordinary button mobile phones was upwards of 5,000 yuan, while brand-name phones were priced at 7,000 to 8,000 yuan, and some could even be sold for tens of thousands. Yuan.

Don’t think the prices are exaggerated. Electronic products like mobile phones, such as color TVs, sold for as high as 5,000 to 6,000 yuan in the 1990s, and tens of thousands of yuan were common. There were also computers, which could only be enjoyed by the rich. electronic products, but now?

A large high-definition color TV costs one thousand yuan to take away. If you think it's too expensive, there are still several hundred yuan to replace it. Not to mention computers, every household can at least bite the bullet and buy one.

With the development of the times, the prices of firewood, rice, oil and salt have increased, but the prices of electronic products have become lower and lower, and their popularity in households has become higher and higher. The days of mobile phones and color TVs generally costing several thousand or tens of thousands of yuan are long gone. Returning has become the memory of a generation.

Lee Jae-yong and Pou 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 premium of the new flagship was too high and it was specially used to cut leeks?

However, only Wang Sheng, the CEO of Crystal Oriental, knows clearly that the Bright X2 is definitely not a product that cuts leeks, but a true cross-generational masterpiece that will likely redefine high-end mobile phones.

When everyone was curious about the price, Chen Xing stood up straight again. Without any mincing words, he directly pressed the remote control on the palm of his hand and said: "The 10,000-yuan model, the Brilliant X2, welcome everyone to taste it."

"Wow——"

“Ten thousand yuan???”

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

"Really ten thousand yuan?"

Rebus looked at Ren Guofei.

"It's really 10,000 yuan." Ren Guofei also swallowed. They have never touched this price range, mainly because Apple and Korean Star, the two industry benchmarks, have not exceeded 10,000 yuan for their new flagships.

"too crazy."

Duan Yongping's eyes widened.

Ku Ke, who was sitting in the first row, was shocked at this moment. There was a huge wave in his heart, and he said very uncomfortably: "Is it possible that there are some black technologies to be announced for the 10,000-yuan model?"

Scared!

He was really scared!

At an autumn press conference, Chen Xing announced so many advanced technologies that his brain capacity was a little too high.

Dare to price the new flagship at 10,000 yuan, he subconsciously believed that Chen Xing still had a big move to make, and they had to be ready to take it.

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

The prices of the four flagship mobile phones cover the upper, middle and lower markets, and now a top-end model worth 10,000 yuan has been added. Chen Xing’s heart is already well known to everyone, and he has made it clear that he will not give up until death.

As Chen Xing pressed the button on the remote control, the LED screen screen switched, and a 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 a full-screen treatment, but unlike the Tianyu series, one side of the corner is a right angle, and the other side is a rounded corner design. It looks like It was very disharmonious, which also caused collective complaints from the audience in the live broadcast room, and barrages were posted crazily.

"It's 7.82 inches and 1.3cm thick. I feel tired just looking at the concept drawings. It feels like it weighs a pound or two when I pick it up!"

"I am a design major. The appearance design of the Brilliant X2 violates aesthetics. Human aesthetics tend to be symmetrical. This design with right angles on one side and rounded corners on the other side, I can only say that Mr. Chen may have a Waterloo."

"It really doesn't look good..."

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

Not only did the audience not buy it, but even Lei Jun and Ren Guofei, including Ku Ke and Li Zaiyong, could not understand Chen Xing's idea. This asymmetrical corner is really ugly, even uglier than the notch screen used by Apple mobile 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 symmetry.

Like objects in life, most of them are also symmetrically designed. The most common TVs, air conditioners, and refrigerators are all square or rectangular. There is no flat line on one side and a wave design on the other side. This kind of underworld aesthetics is destined to be niche.

However, Chen Xing, who was on the podium, ignored the user's meaning and introduced himself: "The Brilliant X2 integrates Huaxia chips, stacked CMOS sensors, and 300W Xingshan fast charging. We have also increased its battery capacity to 10,000 mAh. When only talking, it can standby for at least 7 days."

The voice fell.

The press conference was relatively calm.

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

After integrating the technology, they dare to sell the mobile phone for tens of thousands of yuan. Isn't this a leek harvester?

For a while.

The live broadcast room barrage took a sharp turn for the worse.

"My expectations were in vain."

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

"Mr. Chen, please make the four corners symmetrical. The phone is too ugly..."

"If it has a different design, I might pay for it, but it's big and thick, and not fashionable. It's hard to evaluate."

"I choose the Tianyu series."

I thought Chen Xing was holding back a big one, but he didn't expect it to be a big one. The audience didn't have any expectations. Some of them had already left the live broadcast room and planned to play games. When it was midnight, they would go to buy other brands and series models.

"Huh——"

Kuke breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously.

He was scared to death when he heard that the fourth flagship was going to be released. He thought Chen Xing was going to come up with some black technology again.

Fortunately!

It was just a model to cut leeks.

Li Zaiyong, 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 deal with it. Longxing X3, Geek X2, and Tianyu X1 were enough to give him a hard time. If he came up with a big move, Brilliant X2, he really did not know how to defend himself.

Although it did not meet the audience's expectations, Chen Xing did not lose his composure at all. He continued to introduce it 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 9 million."

"Let's look at the back. Like the Tianyu X1, it uses a circular integrated module with four cameras. The main camera is 20 million pixels, there is also a 10 million pixel ultra-wide-angle camera, and a 9 million pixel periscope camera, plus an 8 million pixel color auxiliary camera, which can adapt to a variety of shooting scenes."

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

The price of 10,000 yuan for the Brilliant X2 was indeed beyond their affordability.

As a company that has grown from a small company to a large one, Longxing Group is a troublemaker in the market. They all subconsciously believe that even if the Brilliant Series continues to go the high-end market route, the price should be controlled in the range of 8,000 yuan. The sudden increase to 10,000 yuan is too much to bear.

Chen Xing still turned a blind eye and looked at the staff below the stage and said: "After introducing the specific configuration, let's see the actual machine demonstration."

As soon as the voice fell, the staff trotted onto the stage and handed over the demonstration machine.

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

"After talking about the weight, let's see if the photos are clear..."

Chen Xing first connected the phone to the LED screen, and then took several photos in a row under the projection demonstration, and enlarged the face of the person in the farthest seat:

"The distance from the podium to the last seat should be more than 100 meters. At this distance, and in dim light, we can still take clear photos of our user friends' facial features, and even see the mole at the corner of his eye. I think it is still very powerful."

"Pa Pa Pa——"

The audience also applauded.

In a dim environment, being able to take photos of this level, even the two CEOs of Sony and Canon Group couldn't help but marvel. It is already very remarkable that mobile phone photography 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 technological enterprise that focuses on innovation, and Bright X2 also has its innovation points."

The words just fell.

Countless people suddenly cheered up.

"Is there really a big move?"

"Come on, come on, Mr. Chen's ultimate move is coming. I knew that Bright X2 would not be that simple. There must be an unknown ultimate move!"

“If you don’t understand, just ask, what other innovations can there be in the field of mobile phones?”

"Chip? Fast charging? Lithium battery? Information and communication? Or other types of technology?"

Just as the audience was talking about it, the director had zoomed in on the camera to allow the audience to see Chen Xing's operations more intuitively.

"The time has come to witness the miracle."

Chen Xing announced again.

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

When the Bright X2 is fully opened, the folding OLED screen unfolds perfectly. The original right-angle design on the left side is perfectly bonded without any gaps. The appearance also changes from an irregular design to a symmetrical arc corner with four corners, like a small tablet. The OLED screen appears miraculously in front of everyone's eyes.

"What did I see?"

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

"Folding screen?"

Luo Hao was also stunned.

After being stunned for a while, 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 on-site user feedback.

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

The press conference was eerily quiet.

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

The sound broke the dullness of all the audience, and the audience woke up one after another. The applause fell like rain again, and like thunder, it hurt Chen Xing's eardrums.

"Holy crap! Folding screen design!!!"

"I just said that Mr. Chen will not make any low-level aesthetic mistakes. It turns out there is something inside, and it is an innovative design of a folding screen!"

"Does this mean that if I buy the Cuican X2, it is equivalent to owning a mobile phone and an office tablet at the same time?"

"Damn it, it's worth ten thousand!"

"It's because I'm so small-minded, Mr. Chen, that I actually question Mr. Chen's aesthetics. If you don't dislike it, I'm willing to come to work at Longxing Group!"

"Everyone else cheats on food and drink, but you're here to cheat on your job, right?"

The design of the folding screen quickly brought back the reputation of the Bright X2. No one expected that the OLED screen could actually be folded.

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

Basically no manufacturer would doubt the technology of Korean Star Group's OLED screens. This is the benchmark in the industry.

The Korean Star Group has naturally developed flexible OLED screens, but since it is not a glass substrate 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, so Lee Jae-yong , even the designers of Korean Star Group have never thought of applying this kind of flexible OLED screen to the field of mobile phones, let alone the concept of folding screens.

While Ku Ke was confused, he wanted to see Li Zaiyong's reaction, and found that the latter was also confused. He already knew that the man was far ahead again!

Chen Xing was very satisfied with the restored "vital" press conference, and he continued to explain: "Our flexible OLED screen is different from the traditional OLED screen. It uses polyimide instead of the glass substrate, and adopts Thin film packaging technology truly transforms what looks like a mobile phone into a tablet.”

"Some people may ask at this time, tablets are all Windows systems, and only Windows can facilitate office work. So does the Bright X2 have a Windows system?"

"The answer is no."

The moment the words fell, the audience couldn't help but let out an "ah" sound. What kind of tablet is it without a Windows system?

But at this moment, Chen Xing suddenly changed the subject and warned: "But our built-in Tianxuan system has PC functions. When we announced the Tianxuan operating system, I proposed that we invest hundreds of dollars. Billion builds an application ecosystem, which is not limited to mobile phones, but also applies to PCs. I also look forward to 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!"

When Chen Xing mentioned it, countless viewers suddenly remembered that the subsidies for the Tianxuan operating system were previously announced for this moment, and all the results have been closed-loop.

Now it's not just the CEO of Google who is nervous, but Microsoft CEO Gerry Vanmuliker, who has just taken office and is still not very hot, is also starting to get nervous.

"madman!"

"This is a lunatic!"

“Is he going to take on all of Silicon Valley?”

Gerry van Mulik shouts.

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

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

Chip VS Gaotong, NVIDIA, AMD.

OS VS Google and Microsoft.

Mobile phone VS Apple.

Cars vs Tesla.

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

Now it is no exaggeration to say that Chen Xing is challenging technology companies in the entire Silicon Valley on his own, and he is waging war in multiple fields.

Not only Gerry Van Mulik was calling Chen Xing crazy, but at this time Renato Marotta, Lyle Valles, Robert Seavey, Davitch, and the Jewish consortium behind them who were watching the live broadcast They were all secretly calling Chen Xing crazy.

After finishing the chip, we will move to information and communication. After finishing information and communication, we will move to the operating system. But what about the operating system?

What else are you doing?

They can't even imagine it!

Every step Chen Xing takes is like stabbing a knife into the arteries of Silicon Valley companies. Before they know it, Longxing Group has become a multinational giant they want to look up to!

Masik 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 completed the operating system, he would develop electric cars and declare war on his Tesla.

To single-handedly challenge the entire Silicon Valley of the United States, even Masik had to admit that Chen Xing's pattern and vision were beyond everyone's expectations.

"This is crazy."

Masik muttered to himself.

When he finished speaking, Huang Renxun, the founder of NVIDIA who was far away in the United States, also sighed with emotion: "One link after another, Chen Xing, you are going to turn the entire Silicon Valley upside down!"

He is very glad that he "abandoned the darkness and turned to the light" early on. Now, part of Nvidia's assets have been transferred out in the name of investment.

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

…

When Western giants were amazed by Chen Xing's layout, on the Weibo information platform, the hot-searched entries for "Tianxuan Operating System" and "Brilliant X2 Folding Screen" shot straight to the first and second positions on the list like a rocket.

Click on the entry.

Countless netizens are commenting crazily.

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

[If I could do it all over again]: "Forget about four flagships in one press conference. The key is that all four flagships have their shining points. Mr. Chen really cried to death just to attend this half-year appointment!"

[Bald Monk]: “After seeing Mr. Chen’s tens of billions of subsidies and his determination to create a software application ecosystem, I have a hunch that the Tianxuan operating system will surpass Android, iOS, and Windows operating systems and become the domestic light in the field of operating systems!”

[Miao Miao Jiang]: "At this time, we have to shout the slogan of our star fans, far ahead, far ahead, we have always been ahead, far ahead of our peers, far ahead!"

Under the wave of "mobile phones turning into tablets", 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 with everyone watching, 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 10,000, and the top version is 19,000!"

"Twenty thousand at the top!"

"I also think it's twenty thousand!"

"Be bold, thirty thousand!"

Since the price of the standard version has been announced in advance, the audience at the scene was guessing the final price of the top version of the Bright X2.

However.

They all guessed wrong.

Because there is no top version of the Bright X2.

"Without further ado, let's go straight to the price." As Chen Xing pressed the remote control, the final sale price of the Brilliant X2 also appeared on the LED screen.

4+128G memory, brilliant X2 standard version, 10,000 yuan.

6+256G memory, Brilliant X2 Honor Edition, 11,000 yuan.

8+512G memory, Brilliant X2 Collector’s Edition, 12,999 yuan.

"Wow!"

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

For a time, the cheers at the press conference were like a tsunami, and it was like black clouds pressing down on the city, giving people a great sense of oppression.

“Mr. Chen is awesome!!!”

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

"Mr. Chen is far ahead!!!"
