Global monopoly of technology

Under the gaze of the audience with more than a thousand pairs of eyes, Luo Sheng calmly walked onto the stage and came to the middle position.

He is holding a small remote control in his hand. This time he has to use PPT, because it is an external press conference rather than an internal company meeting.

The giant screen behind him is now the logo of a Côte d'Azur company displayed on the screen, a killer whale with metallic texture and excellent light and shadow effects.

Hosting a product launch conference is easy and easy for Luo Sheng. After a while, he simply opened the audience to more than 1,000 people: "Good morning everyone, and welcome you."

At this moment, thousands of engineers on the Côte d'Azur are paying attention to this press conference. No one is more excited than them. What they have done over the years is the arrival of this moment.

Luo Sheng walked back and forth on the giant screen stage, and methodically said: "I have been looking forward to the arrival of this moment for 1,280 days. We did not sleep overnight because we were too excited."

In the front row area off the court, Feng Yi, Bai Lang, Lu Siming and others are among them. Hearing the words of the boss on the stage, they know what happened yesterday and how much effort they put in. It is really a toss. All night.

The highlight moment at this time is the result of the sweat and hard work of a large team behind it.

The rehearsal of this conference lasted for three days and was heavily guarded. An electronic laboratory was built in the backstage to place and test prototypes. In front of this laboratory and the lounge and even to all the entrances of the venue center, There are security personnel on duty 24 hours a day.

Anyone entering or exiting must pass electronic identity authentication, and the list of persons allowed to enter and exit must be reviewed by Luo Sheng.

In order to avoid the leakage of news, Luo Sheng also required all people involved in the layout of the conference, including lighting and stage equipment vendors, to live in the exhibition center the night before the product launch.

In order to make the prototype work normally at the press conference, engineers have been doing their best to solve various potential problems.

The preparations for this press conference alone took more than two months, nearly three months.

In order to be able to demonstrate the various functions of the prototype on site, the screen of the prototype must be projected on the giant screen on the stage. In order to achieve this effect, the engineers spent two or three weeks to install the image output on the back of the prototype. Module, and then connected to the projection equipment.

The Wi-Fi link of the prototype on-site is actually not stable. Engineers discovered this problem two days ago and had to hide the Wi-Fi signal transmitter under the stage to shorten the wireless signal transmission distance.

In addition, we must also find ways to modify the software to prevent audiences under the stage from occupying the same wireless frequency and causing the displayed prototype to slow down.

In order to ensure the strength of the signal, local operators were also hired to set up a mobile signal tower on site.

After Luo Sheng's approval, a team of engineers in the development team modified the program of the prototype used for demonstration, so that regardless of the signal strength on site, the signal strength on the screen will show the full state.

This is to ensure that if the wireless network really fails and must be restarted, it does not want to be discovered by the audience, especially Western media, so the signal strength on the mobile phone screen must always be displayed as full.

There is no way, the signal side of Sioux City and even the nationwide communication infrastructure are relatively poor, and it is still not comparable to that of ten years later. If it is ten years later, it will properly explode in Europe and America.

Even now, Luo Sheng is alone in front of the giant screen on the stage, but there are still more than one or two hundred engineers and staff working in the background, doing their best to escort the successful conclusion of the conference.

The ultimate goal is to finish this conference perfectly.

At this moment, Luo Sheng on the stage facing the audience of more than 1,000 audiences said: "We have discovered a pattern. Every once in a while, a revolutionary product will come out in the world and then change the world. Today we will witness together History has witnessed the advent of a revolutionary electrical product, which will redefine the smartphone, which is the Azure-X!"

The audience at the meeting was quite squinting, some were curious, some were watching the excitement, and some were calm.

The scene was very quiet. The audience's eyes were cast on Luo Sheng, and the big screen behind him showed the characters "Azure-X", which means Azure.

Many foreigners came to the scene, including some foreign media reporters. They all brought translators, and these equipments were distributed on the spot.

Many people were stunned for a while after Luo Sheng said that. The tone was not normal, but they were not surprised when they arrived, because as long as they have seen Luo Sheng’s global roadshow for Bluestar Technology’s IPO Knowing that he likes to say some amazing and exaggerated remarks is his consistent style.

Luo Sheng on the stage walked back and forth, calmly saying: "Entering the smartphone industry is an unfamiliar field for the Côte d’Azur, but we have more than 7,000 engineers devoted to research day and night in 1,280. Having accumulated a wealth of technology and extremely mature, today Azure-X comes out."

"Before we introduce this revolutionary product in depth, I want to talk about the so-called smart phones. Generally speaking, they are combined with the phone, have the ability to send and receive emails, and the so-called simplified version of the Internet function. In a mobile device, there is also a plastic keypad on the device."

"But the problem is that these devices are actually not that smart. Frankly speaking, I think it's a bit stupid." Luo Sheng raised his head to face the audience as he spoke, and many people laughed.

To be honest, if it weren't for Luo Sheng and the bluestar technology group's aura of achievement, these laughter would not mean ridicule, but sarcasm.

Even so, after listening to the translation, some foreigners present were scornful. Although Luo Sheng is a giant in the Internet industry, he crossed the field to the field of hardware equipment. I don’t know where he had the courage to treat Nokia and Motorola so blatantly. These giants had some contempt.

Last year, a mobile phone jointly launched by Apple and Motorola failed miserably. Some foreign reporters have been thinking in their hearts that they are preparing to write an article like a mockery of the mobile phone of Qiao’s gang.

What the people off the court thought Luo Sheng didn't know what others were thinking. He continued: "...Not only is it stupid, but it's not easy to use and reasonable, so I decided to make it myself."

Audience: "..."

Yes, this is Luo Sheng.

After a while, Luo Sheng immediately continued to speak with a bright smile: "General mobile phones are not very smart. Of course, the current smart phones are definitely a little smarter, but they are difficult to use and too complicated. Even some basic functions cost A lot of energy to figure out how to use it."

"So we don't want to make such a product, we want to make a super-advanced revolutionary product that is smarter and easier to use than all current smartphones, that is Azure-X!"

"First is an unprecedented mobile interface. This is the result of more than a thousand day and night developments, and it is a combination of software and hardware. Why do we need an unprecedented interface?"

Speaking of this, Luo Sheng pressed the remote control in his hand and glanced back at the big screen. The audience also looked at the screen. There is a picture on it. There are several smart phones, all of which are well-known brands of international manufacturers. type.

Luo Sheng stared at the screen and said, “There are four different smartphones here, namely, Benmai, Blackberry, Motorola, and Nokia. They are all well-known and common models. Have you found any problems with their interfaces?”

The audience said there was no problem...

Is there a problem?

Luo Sheng continued: “As a patient with severe obsessive-compulsive disorder, I really can’t accept that nearly 40% of these mobile devices are plastic small keyboards. Whether you need them or not, these densely packed keys are fixed. It’s the same in all applications."

"Moreover, every application needs some unique user interface and the most appropriate button configuration. The question is, what if you have a great new idea after a few months? You can't add more buttons Right? So what should I do? The problem is unresolved. Because the key functions cannot be adjusted, they cannot be adjusted between programs, and they cannot be changed in the future. What should I do?"

At this moment, only Luo Sheng's voice was present at the press conference. After asking this question, he pressed the small remote control again, and the big screen switched to a slide.

It is a PC desktop image.

Luo Sheng looked back at the big screen and said: "It is obvious that the computer desktop, which was born more than 20 years ago, has perfectly solved this problem. We can display anything we want to display on the graphic computer screen. Any kind of interface. So how do we put these things into a mobile device? It's very simple, all we have to do is to get rid of these plastic keypads, leaving only a huge screen."

After speaking, Luo Sheng pressed the button of the remote control again to switch to the next slide. The front graphic of the prototype was displayed on the big screen. Everyone who saw this screen for the first time showed a surprised expression.

"This……"

A foreign reporter's eyes widened in surprise. It was the first time he saw the prototype model displayed on the big screen. As a user of a plastic keyboard mobile phone, this was definitely an industrial design he had never seen before.

This is the smartphone to be released on the Riviera?

The scene was still quiet, because most people were full of doubts. The prototype on the big screen showed a flat picture, and it was not a real picture at a glance.

"How to interact with this screen? It's impossible to pick up a mouse, what should I do? Use a stylus? No, this is too low, we don’t want a stylus, and this thing is easy to lose, like me. Your temper will collapse when you encounter this situation, and your mood will be destroyed all day long because of it."

After a burst of laughter at the scene, Luo Sheng smiled and said: “So we chose to use the best touch pointing device in the world, a touch pointing device that everyone is born with... We use our fingers to Tap."

As soon as this remark was made, the audience at the scene shined.

But still very confused.

Luo Sheng continued: "For this we have developed a new technology... called multi-touch technology. It is really a super cool feature. It is more accurate than any current touch interface. It will be very smart to ignore. For all unintentional misoperations, the more cool thing is that you can make more gestures on it. Of course, the key is that this is our exclusive patent, and we can cooperate with interested manufacturers in the future."

"The revolutionary user interface is of course software. The software in all mobile phones on the market is actually not very mature, and it is not very effective at all. Therefore, we have also brought a breakthrough in software, at least five years ahead of any other mobile phones. The above software."

While the audience was puzzled, they were also very interested, especially some industry insiders. They were really more curious that Luo Sheng had been bragging on stage for so long and was always ahead for more than five years.

It feels as if he doesn't take Nokia and Motorola and other established international brands in their eyes.

Is this a bit too arrogant?

On the contrary, some foreigners are "worried" for Luo Sheng, fearing that the products launched by that time will be seriously exaggerated. The rhythm of the famous Internet giants in the contemporary world will be laughed off, which has become a big joke in the history of the industry, just like Sony wanted to pick. Like Intel, people in the media expressed their delight.

And Luo Sheng remained on stage.

"How did we do it? We started from a very strong foundation, the AOS system, which is really huge, equal to the average contribution of nearly 10,000 lines of code from the entire Côte d’Azur company’s engineers. This huge and delicate system is placed in a mobile device, and the device has everything we need."

"It can be multiplexed, has strong network capabilities, can do a good job of power management, excellent security mechanisms, and many applications. Graphics processing, video and audio functions, etc. are all AOS's best jobs."

"These functions are all concentrated in one mobile device by our engineers. AOS allows us to create desktop-level applications and network capabilities. This is not the crappy you see in other mobile phones. This is truly totally different. Desktop-level applications that are weaker than PCs are more than five years ahead of any other mobile phone."

Luo Sheng walked to the side of the stage and drank his saliva before returning to the midfield position. He continued: “The other thing we learned from another company is Apple. Apple’s iPod is synchronized with iTunes. We think This is a great model. We think Azure-X can also be synchronized with MusicSpace, an application service of Bluestar Technology, and can synchronize media files to Azure-X phones."

"Not only can you synchronize all the files to Azure-X, your music, audiobooks, movies, MV, etc., but also a large amount of data, your address book, your calendar, your photos, your Tags, bookmarks in your browser, etc., all do."

"One more thing. I want to show you the industrial design of Azure-X. We designed the most beautiful phone in your hand. It's really beautiful and super cool." At this point, Luo Sheng clicked on his hand again. The remote control button and turned around to look at the big screen:

"This is what it looks like."

Before the voice fell, everyone was already staring at the screen.

Luo Sheng said: "There is a 4.0 screen, it's really big, and it's the resolution we have used. The screen has 180PPI. There is a button directly below, similar to the Escape function. Look at its side. It's really thin, thinner than any current smart phone, only 10.8 mm thick. There are several buttons on the side. A switch button, press sleep, press wake up, a volume control On the button, there is a SIM card slot on the lower side. Look at the back, first is the built-in 3 million pixel camera. Then look at the top, there is a headphone jack, and finally at the bottom, there is a speaker, charging and data All you can see are the ports and microphones used for transmission."

When Luo Sheng's voice fell, the audience suddenly ushered in the first warm applause, and it was also the first ray of high dynasty ushered in since the press conference. Almost everyone looked at with a shocked expression. Giant screen.

It even feels unbelievable, regardless of Luo Sheng's high-profile remarks, regardless of how this phone is, it's just that its industrial design level has attracted every witness.

Can mobile phones be made like this?
