Chapter 99: A Fearful Press Conference
October 16th, half past eight in the evening, Jiangcheng City, Guangyao Building, Yigou Headquarters.
Although it has passed the end of work, more than 10 employees of Yigou are still waiting in the company.
At 9 o'clock this evening, at 2 p.m. London time, Warwick will hold an autumn conference in London, and according to the agreement, it will launch the MATE20 mobile phone and the Ozawa voice assistant independently developed by VATS.
This is a critical moment related to the future development of Yigou, and the employees are nervous and of course reluctant to go home.
Qianyi bought braised chicken feet, cold potatoes and other suppers, as if she was going to watch the World Cup.
She said with a broken thought in her mouth: "Whether you can buy a house next year depends on tonight." ”
Ma Yanjun and his team also came down from the VATS company upstairs, and he was still relatively calm compared to Qianyi, who was very nervous.
After all, since Xiao Ming handed over Xiao Ming's voice assistant, he and his team have continuously optimized and improved it, so that it can fully fit Huawei mobile phones and all applications on the market.
This time, Ma Yanjun is full of confidence, and Ozawa's voice assistant will definitely succeed.
"The boss is old!"
"The boss is here!"
Xiao Ming nodded to the employees.
The new employees knew that the company's CEO was Qian Yi, and they also knew that the boss behind it was Xiao Ming, but few had seen Xiao Ming, and everyone was quite surprised to see the boss so young at this time.
"None of you went back?" Xiao Ming asked.
Qianyi said: "Yes! Year-end bonus, and whether you can buy a car and a house next year, it depends on tonight." Boss, are you nervous?"
It's false to say not to be nervous, there will be a little bit.
After all, the market value of VATS and Yigou will enter billions or even tens of billions after tonight, or they will fall from heaven to hell, and they will live by relying on Yigou translation software, just tonight.
Ma Yanjun once again reported Xiao Ming's situation to Xiao Ming and said: "Everything is perfect, in terms of technology and experience, Ozawa's voice has completely surpassed SIRI and Warwick voice assistant itself. ”
"Brother Ma, you pay attention to the background data tonight. ”
"Definitely!" Ma Yanjun raised the tablet in his hand and said, "Success or failure is tonight." ”
9 p.m. Yenching time, 2 p.m. London time.
Warwick Autumn 2018 Global Launch was held in London.
The press conference was preceded by a singing and dancing performance that mediated the atmosphere, after all the guests and the audience had arrived at the scene.
The CEO of Huawei Terminal came to power.
Qianyi handed a chicken claw to Xiao Ming and said, "MATE20." ”
On the screen is a rendering of the MATE20, Lao Yu looks flying on the stage, starting from the MATE series, and in the process of review, he also shows off his feelings, such as Warwick's Kirin chip and the progress of battery storage, etc.
After more than ten minutes of nonsense, I really got to the point - MATE20.
From the appearance to the soaring AI computing power to the world's first Kirin 980 chip, to the high-energy battery, fast charging, and finally the Leica camera and wireless projection technology, etc.
The press conference has been going on for an hour and a half, and after the introduction of MATE20, the MATE20PRO and MATE20X were introduced.
Seeing that the press conference was about to come to an end, Lao Yu did not mention Ozawa's voice assistant in this press conference.
Everyone's hearts were cold.
Qian Yi said: "No, Warwick will not release our pigeons!"
Qianyi stood up immediately, stopped gnawing the chicken feet in her hand, and said, "What kind of plane is this old man doing!
"Brother Ma, what the hell is going on!"
Everyone's eyes looked at Ma Yanjun, and Ma Yanjun's heart was also a little panicked, and said: "No! Obviously, everything is debugged! In the phased contract, it is clearly agreed that Xiao Ze is going to be on MATE20." WILL IT NOT BE SAID AT THE PRESS CONFERENCE? I'LL CHECK THE DATA OF THE MATE20 RIGHT AWAY. ”
However, the detailed data of the mobile phone does not write what kind of voice assistant the mobile phone uses.
People turned their eyes to Xiao Ming again.
Xiao Ming calmed down and said: "Ozawa's voice is a big weapon for Warwick's sales to surpass Samsung and Apple, and Huawei will not give up." I have faith in Ozawa's voice. ”
Ma Yanjun also said: "Huawei must still have a backhand, I have confidence in the product!"
On the Internet, the media has already summarized the conference.
Xinlang Technology: "The MATE20 released by Huawei this time was expected, and the Kirin 980 was exposed half a year ago. ”
Whoosh Technology: "There is nothing new, but Leica and Kirin 980 still have a certain competitiveness, let's see how the market performs." ”
Sure enough, when everyone thought that all the phones of the MATE series were released, even the media made conclusive comments.
And Xiaomi, OV and other manufacturers breathed a sigh of relief.
The voice that suddenly appeared on the platform two months ago did not appear at this press conference.
Perhaps,The intelligent voice assistant is not as magical as it was reported on the Internet,Huawei did not mention it at the press conference this time,Either there are technical bottlenecks that are not suitable for mobile phones,Or Huawei has given up the application of Ozawa voice on MATE20。
In either case, it's quite bad for Yigou.
Xiaomi's CEO also posted two words on Weibo - stable!
The meaning is very clear, Xiaomi's earlier flagship MIX3 is stable.
"This press conference is expected to take more than two hours, and then wait. Xiao Ming said.
Qianyi took another chicken paw and bit it hard, and the tension in her heart was self-evident.
At the press conference, Lao Yu said: "MATE20 series also has a little brother, MATE20L, this mobile phone is strictly confidential before the press conference, I think today will definitely give you a surprise!"
"It's coming!" Ma Yanjun clenched his fists.
The media who were writing the closing news put down their notebooks again, looked at the press conference, and MATE20L "What kind of mobile phone is this?"
The detailed configuration and data of the MATE20L are displayed on the large screen, which is no different from the MATE20, and the appearance and size are the same!
"What the hell is this?"
"What kind of plane is Warwick doing, isn't it the same? ”
Lao Yucai, who was in suspense enough, said: "MATE20L and MATE20 have all the same configurations, but there is a more intelligent voice assistant, and the Ozawa voice ...... created by Warwick and Yigou Company"
"It's coming, it's coming!"
The employees of Yigou stood up.
Lao Yu paced on the stage and said: "Mobile phone voice assistant, in many people's concept is chicken ribs, why do you say that? Because many users are complaining about the voice assistant's low voice recognition rate and slow response, if you can't find the corresponding answer in the existing language library, then the voice assistant can't answer any questions from users at all." ”
Lao Yu said: "To put it more bluntly, all mobile phone voice assistants are mentally retarded. ”
The people at the press conference laughed, which was true.
"So will Ozawa's voice assistant get rid of the evaluation of chicken ribs?"
Lao Yu turned to the big screen and said, "Ozawa." ”
Ozawa: "Hey, master!"
