The September sun in San Francisco is warm and warm, but not as dry and hot as in Los Angeles, and even in the middle of the day, the sun is not too harsh and pleasant.

The square of the Parkview Green Arts Center is crowded with people. It is not yet open to admission, but many people have spontaneously formed a long queue outside the door of the art center, including many media from all walks of life holding media cards.

"I was lucky to be able to find a parking space. Wozniak held the steering wheel with one hand and turned back on the back of the seat with the other, "Haha, that's a great position." Get off, let's go, get in line. ”

Evan and Mike thanked Wozniak, who was given an invitation to enter through a special passage, while Evan and Mike waited in the square with thousands of people.

"I'm hungry. Mike rubbed his belly, "Look where there are hot dogs nearby, I want to eat hot dogs." ”

Evan looked around, "Huh, everyone over there seems to be eating, it should be a retail vendor, go over and have a look." ”

Evan and Mike arrive at the crowd and find that two tables have been put together to form a refreshment table, filled with fruit and small refreshments, and there are two counter coffee machines standing next to them.

Mike looked around, but didn't find any sales staff, so he grabbed a young man next to him who was also wearing an admission pass around his neck and was eating a lot: "Excuse me, who is buying the things here?"

The young man gave Mike a strange look: "Here are the free refreshments prepared by Matrix, you can take them as you like." There are also the same refreshment stations over there and there, with more varieties than here, and the taste is not bad. ”

Mike and Evan looked in the direction the young man pointed, and sure enough, there were a number of refreshment tables scattered around the entire square, and a rough count showed that there were four or five.

Is Matrix quite careful?

Mike and Evan had just taken two cookies and put them in their mouths, and were about to grab a bottle of Coke, when they saw a sudden noise in the square. Immediately afterwards, everyone who was eating and drinking around them also took three steps and two steps and ran towards the door of Parkview Green Art Center.

"It's in!" Evan snatched the plate from Mike and put it back on the table, and the two of them followed the crowd at the end of the line. It didn't take long for a few people wearing Matrix employee badges to start dividing the team into several sections, checking the invitations in everyone's hands and leading everyone into the exhibition hall in batches.

It took more than half an hour for the guests with the invitation to enter the venue, and they waited for five or six minutes, and it happened to be 1:58 p.m.

The lights of the entire venue suddenly went out, and the two large projections on the front of the hall lit up, and a rotating Matrix logo swirled from the left side of the screen into the center. Everyone in the venue first exclaimed, and then a sparse burst of applause and whistles gradually sounded.

Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged man in a dark suit and a light blue shirt walked up to the stage and spread his hands: "Welcome to Dell's product launch." ”

The audience was stunned for a moment, and then the applause whistle sounded like a shocking sound.

Everyone recognizes this as the most famous comedy king in the world today - Jim Carrey.

And Jim Carrey's outfit is the daily outfit of Mike Dell, chairman and president of Dell, who appears in front of the public.

Jim Carrey is especially good at imitation, imitating Dell's slightly Texan accent vividly, plus he also deliberately cut his hair into the same short as Mike Dale, which looks like a dime from a distance.

Those who can come to the press conference have something to do with the IT circle, either technology media, enthusiasts, or practitioners, everyone has heard of Mike Dell's attack on Matrix, and when they saw Matrix coming with such a hand, they almost sprayed rice.

Jim Carrey still maintained Mike Dyer's signature smile and pressed his hands, "People can carry forward and grasp opportunities that everyone thought didn't exist, and they don't have to be geniuses to think in unconventional ways." At this time, a line of words typed on the big screen, "Inner OS: But I am." ”

The audience burst into laughter again, but Jim Carrey remained unmoved: "It doesn't have to be a prophet. ”

Another line of words typed out on the two big screens: "Hehe, it's still me." ”

The audience was already laughing like crazy at this point, and Kim Kelly continued: "You don't even need to have a college diploma. ”

The words on the big screen: "Lao Tzu is ivy." ”

Jim Carrey raised his hands in the air and made a moving gesture: "All that is needed is a structure and a dream. ”

Big screen: "Well, dream." Thanks to Intel for the rebate. ”

The audience was already rolling on their stomachs with laughter, and Matrix's opening was too funny, which not only enlivened the atmosphere, but also hacked Dell, the biggest competitor at present. Especially the last thank Intel for the kickback, which is completely alluding to the exclusive platform subsidy that Intel has just exposed.

Jim Carrey's line is exactly what Mike Dale said in an interview with Fortune magazine, and this passage has been repeatedly quoted by many media outlets because it sounds very inspirational, and almost everyone in the IT circle is familiar with it.

Jim Carrey pretended not to know anything, and continued to recite the Dell quote as usual: "In the technology industry, there is nothing special about young people running a company. I've always believed that when you're making decisions and running a business, it doesn't matter if you're 22, 42 or 82. ”

Immediately after, Jim Carrey suddenly rolled his eyes, revealing a disgusted expression: "However, you must first be 22 years old, like I founded Dell Computer at the age of 22, those entrepreneurs who are younger than me, they are completely unreliable." ”

At this time, the audience had already noticed that Zhang Chen quietly appeared in the dark on the side of the stage, holding his arms with both hands, and looking at Jin Carrey on the stage with a smile.

The applause whistle sounded again, Zhang Chen waved to the audience and walked onto the stage. "Mr. Dyer, I heard that you worked very hard when you started your business, and you worked hard every day, so you ask your employees to work harder every day, is it true?"

"Of course, I worked very hard since I was a child, so I bought my first Porsche when I was 22 years old. That's why I ask my employees to work as hard as I do. ”

Zhang Chen praised: "You mean, as long as they work hard enough at Dell, they can buy a Porsche?"

Jim Carrey shook his head and made an exaggerated expression: "Then I can have more money to buy another Porsche." ”

More than 3,000 spectators laughed back and forth, and many people slammed their seats. It's worth it to come here, not only can you watch the press conference, but there is also a talk show on the spot, or a double person.

Zhang Chen pressed down with his hands, and said without waiting for the audience to be completely calm: "Okay, Kim, we can't say bad things about Dale anymore." After all, Dell's strongest department is the legal department. ”

Everyone reacted quickly and sprayed rice again, which was too damaging, and it was completely ironic that Dell's R&D, technology, and products were useless.

Dell has filed more than a dozen legal proceedings against Matrix in recent months, covering everything from intellectual property to unfair competition. The legal departments of the two companies are arguing every day, which also adds a lot of material to the media.

In the hearts of the general public, Matrix is now an innovative enterprise that is bullied by unscrupulous large companies, and the situation faced by Apple in 84 is the same, and it naturally has a certain sympathy for Matrix.
