Chapter 327: Jobs Who Sold TV

On November 11, 1985, it was the Double 11 of the new year. Originally, this day with no special meaning was defined by Lin Qi as an epoch-making product release day.

Compared with the future of the parallel world, Double 11 is defined as a shopping festival with discount promotions on e-commerce platforms, and the creation festival defined by Lin Qi is obviously at a higher level.

As the new venture electronics has brought more and more surprises to the world, this day has also attracted more and more media attention.

On Double 11 in the new year, Lin Qi moved the venue to the Hung Hom Stadium, because this year, the number of people from all walks of life, media and ordinary audiences will reach 11,110, setting a new high for the on-site press conference in previous years.

The live evening opened, a 30-minute theatrical performance, and the invited performers were basically the world's top level, including the best magicians, orchestras, acrobatic troupes and singers.

Of course, for many stars in the Chinese entertainment industry, they are willing to perform on stage at the Double 11 Gala of New Entrepreneurship, even if they are willing to pay money. Because, not only the scene has large media from all over the world, but also a bunch of manufacturers in the consumer electronics industry. As long as its performance is favored by any manufacturer on the scene and obtains an endorsement contract, it is enough for it to earn a high-quality advertising endorsement contract.

At this year's Double 11 press conference, Lin Qi is not ready to sing a one-man show in the new entrepreneurship department, but allows third-party partners to display and release their products through the platform of Double 11.

"Every year on this day, everyone expects us to be able to launch products that have never been seen before. A large number of media and fans see us as an invention factory that can do anything and constantly change the world...... Some extreme admirers even think that we are comparable to the historical Edison Company.

Yes, we don't deny that our company is a lot like the historical Edison company.

But even in Edison's time, inventions were not only Edison's patents, as the invention factory with the most patents, his company's patents accounted for only a small part of the number of patents in the world.

Similarly, our company is comparable to the modern Edison company by fans, and we have registered about 27,000 patents this year, an increase of more than 100% compared to the number of patents registered last year. At the same time, we have accumulated 107,000 valid patents, making us one of the technology companies with the most patents in the world.

However, we have to admit that we have changed the world very little, and what really makes the world change with each passing day is the efforts of more inventors and dreamers...... Dreamers may encounter setbacks, but as long as they have the dream of changing the world, they are still the driving force behind the progress of the times.

We...... Today, I invite such a dreamer, Mr. Jobs, who founded Apple Inc. to make people realize that computers can be used in people's homes and offices as a tool for production......

Now that he has founded the new Apple Company, let's look forward to Mr. Jobs, who is about to bring us fine!"

……

"Thank you, thank you very much!" Jobs, wearing jeans and sweatshirts, walked on the stage, took the microphone from Lin Qi, and said, "I am a fan of Mr. Lin, and I have always hoped to become an entrepreneur like Mr. Lin." It was also with Mr. Lin Qi's encouragement that I founded the new Apple after being swept away by Apple...... This is our logo for our new Apple!"

On the big screen at the scene, the new Apple logo appeared!

The biggest difference from the previous Apple company is that the logo has changed from an apple that has been bitten with a notch to a complete golden apple. The golden apple represents the fruit of wisdom and also means that the new Apple will be more creative than in the past.

There was a round of applause at the scene!

Although Jobs was driven away by Apple, he relied on the color of pathos to make him suck a lot of fans.

Historically, Steve Jobs mistakenly shifted his strategy to the software industry, and his products were detached from the mass consumer market, so he did not achieve great success.

And now Steve Jobs, under the persuasion of Lin Qi, is not blindly making software, but making TVs that do not rely too much on the support of a large number of hardware manufacturers. In this way, not only the new Apple may recreate its glory, but also the new venture electronics may become the winner behind the scenes because of the supply of core components such as screens, CPUs, CD drives, etc.

"After leaving Apple, we signed an agreement not to compete with Apple. In other words, my team can't build computers until the non-compete agreement expires. Jobs said regretfully, "Therefore, we can't continue the technical route of Macintosh and make a computer that is as futuristic as Pangu and represents the future trend." Later, I found an interesting product in Mr. Lin's home -- a television set! You must be curious, so rich Mr. Lin, what is the difference between the TV set at his home and the TV set we have come into contact with! Yes, it is completely different!

It's not a TV that already exists on the market, but a 55-inch large-screen TV based on plasma display technology!

I felt that this was a technology that could change the world, but unfortunately the market was not yet mature, so mass production of this technology was not yet started. At that time, I boldly proposed to cooperate with Mr. Lin to create a new TV that would change the TV industry! Mr. Lin readily agreed, and so we started this close cooperation. The plasma technology we provide in Xinchuang Electronics and our in-depth research and development of hardware and operating systems have been polished out - NTV!"

A 32-inch television was brought to the podium and connected to the data network and wires.

"NTV!" Jobs turned on with the remote control,The screen appeared NTV and the new Apple logo,After a short boot screen,The picture of the TV does not enter the TV channel,But similar to the graphical operation interface of the computer,"It is not a traditional TV,But a smart TV。 ”

"What is a smart TV? It's the function of a traditional TV, and it definitely has it. The most advanced optical fiber transmission is currently transmitting data, and Hong Kong's Star TV has supported optical fiber digital television. Of course, we have other interfaces to meet the needs of users in areas where there is no optical fiber digital TV network, using the traditional cable TV interface to watch TV programs. Jobs used the remote control to operate the screen and said, "The remote control is up and down, left and right, and you can remote control the trackball on the screen to select." In addition, there are keys such as OK, back, and homepage, so that users can easily check them. For example,We choose the main businessTVchannel,This is the frequent choice of traditional TV,There are several stations of Xingchen TV to choose from,I choose the English channel......"

After the TV was successfully switched to the English channel, the audience burst into thunderous applause.

"Return, I want to go back to your previous page, okay, very sensitive to follow my instructions, the operation is as simple as that. ”

"In addition, you think it's just a high-definition TV, no! In addition to being clearer, it's more free! The programs we watch are no longer fixed programs given to us by TV stations, and we have the right to use the TV screen to experience more entertainment methods of our choice! It also integrates the functions of VCD, CD and super VCD, music, film and television and so on. Even...... You can also experience games that are compatible with our system, such as ...... This CD is a "Tank Wars" CD authorized by the new venture electronics company! We can operate it without even using a handle, just a remote control......"

Jobs then allowed a large number of spectators to experience the stage, and the atmosphere gradually reached a warm level.

NTV!

Countless live audiences want to buy this thing!

"What is the price of such a TV, and will it be expensive to the level of luxury?"

"No! It's not cheap, but it's not more expensive than a TV of the same size!" Jobs announced, "$1,998! We're ready to sell it to the market at that price!"

"Boom!"

There was a huge commotion throughout the scene!

Originally, the audience who was just watching the excitement was ready to move and wanted to buy it!

Only $1998 one,It's not necessarily more expensive than a color TV of the same size,Moreover,The clarity of an ordinary color TV,It's completely different than NTV。

What's more, it also integrates TV, game console, CD, VCD, and a bunch of other features all in one place.

Whether it is the appearance or the function, it has completely exploded most of the TVs in this era. It is precisely because of this that the audience at the scene wants to buy, buy, buy!

Of course, Jobs also complied with the people's sentiment and said: "There are a total of 50 units in stock at the scene, which can be sold to the lucky audience at the scene." Other live audience members are eligible to pay a $200 deposit to reserve a television set. We will give a discount of $200 to the predetermined consumer, and the priority shipping will be carried out, and the warranty date of the product will be much longer than the official release version, yes - 10 years of on-site repair! Only for users who participated in our NTV reservation on the spot! And it is the release that will start on January 1 next year, but the official release version will only have 3 years of after-sales service. ”

So what are you waiting for......

Buy!

Buy, buy, buy, buy, of course!

This kind of NTV, which has both experience and compelling, suddenly made nearly one-third of the users on the scene ready to buy. In addition, many other users who did not join the reservation did so because they forgot to bring cash with them when they went out. There is also a gritted teeth, waiting for the products of the new venture electronics to go on sale, ready to buy the new products of the new venture electronics, so, I can't help but not order the NTV of the new Apple!

But even so, the reservation of more than 3,000 units really made Jobs raise his eyebrows!

A brand new product, without the reputation of the past and without a wide range of sales channels, has received thousands of orders just by virtue of the bookings made at the launch conference. Such a result really exceeded Jobs' expectations!
