Chapter 538: Special Product Launch
At 12 p.m., Los Angeles in Southern California is already covered in the veil of night. By this time, the vast majority of Angelenos had fallen asleep, but at the moment, the lights were still bright in the U.S. headquarters building of the Future People Group located in South Los Angeles.
Located in the circular hall on the first floor, the audience was crowded. The media workers in the venue have set up their cameras and are waiting for Jiang Chen to appear. The staff on the stage were busy setting up the venue and connecting all kinds of high-end looking instruments to the power supply.
After briefly explaining a few words to his assistant about the essentials of the shooting, Danny took out a small notebook and repeatedly confirmed the main points of the question for a while. There are a lot of reporters at the Los Angeles Times, and all of them have sharpened their heads to get the interview, and it is not easy for him to seize this opportunity. Judging by the level of people's obsession with the Phantom Helmet, the attention of this report is simply not low.
"Did you think he'd come?" The reporter sitting next to him tucked the tablet back into his briefcase and asked Danny in a casual tone.
Danny noticed that the logo on the microphone he had on his hand belonged to the California Daily Journal, and the nameplate on his chest read "Charles Don".
"It should be, but all of you are among the best media in the United States, even Microsoft, and it doesn't have the courage to let go of all media pigeons. Danny teased.
Charles smiled and lowered his voice.
"I have interesting news here. ”
"Oh?" Danny sat up slightly and leaned over in interest.
There is still a little time before the start of the press conference, and I can get some information from my peers that I don't know. For the interview, it is undoubtedly powerful. Whether this information is true or not, it can be used as a reference.
"Yesterday at noon, I asked an acquaintance to look into the passenger lists of flights at several Los Angeles airports. However, his name is not seen in it at all. ”
"Maybe they're on a private jet. Danny said teasingly, but in his heart he silently despised it.
What kind of news is this Nima, if someone really wants to make a low-key visit, will they let you find out?
At this moment, the lights in the venue suddenly went out. Everyone stopped talking to each other and stared at the front of the room.
Here it comes!
Danny tucked the notebook into his pocket and took a deep breath. Straighten the tie on your chest. But when he saw his counterparts from the California Daily next door, he almost didn't breathe out. I saw that although Charles was sitting, his feet were in a rushing posture one after the other.
It's shameless.
cursed in his heart. Danny held the microphone in his hand and was ready to rush forward.
Futureman Technology didn't make the reporters in the audience wait for a long time, and the general manager of the United States who was standing behind the scenes glanced at his watch, and then said hello to the staff. Signal them to turn the device on.
A beam of light landed on the stage. Following the pull of the light, a young Chinese man in a suit walked from behind the curtain to the front of the stage.
As expected, the audience erupted in warm applause. Although many American media still have reservations about the technology of future people born in China, the technical strength it shows has won the respect of everyone present. Therefore, for Jiang Chen's debut, these reporters will not be stingy with their applause.
The screen in the back lights up, and English characters emerge on it. The reporters present are no strangers to the real-time translation technology of Futureren Technology.
"It's a pleasure to have all of you here for our company's product launch. At the same time, I am sorry that journalists in North America have to work late into the night, and reporters in Western Europe have to get up early. ”
When Jiang Chen said this. Danny, who was sitting in the front row, smiled understandingly, but then was stunned like the other reporters in the audience.
This opening statement seems a bit informative.
Glancing at the reporters in the audience, Jiang Chen smiled slightly, spread his hands and continued.
That's right, this press conference will be held simultaneously at 12 future people group sub-headquarters around the world. ”
Jiang Chen's words were like a depth charge, thrown into the originally silent venue. All the reporters stared at him on the stage in disbelief.
Simultaneous product launches at 12 regional headquarters around the world?
Although it was not time to ask questions, many reporters present still raised their hands. Including Danny of the Los Angeles Daily News, they needed an explanation from Future Technology.
As if expecting this situation, Jiang Chen's performance was very calm, he glanced around at the reporters in the venue, and finally his eyes fell on Danny, who was sitting in the front row.
"I would like to give the floor to reporter No. 304. ”
Seeing Jiang Chen speak by name, Danny was pleasantly surprised, Danny hurriedly stood up and handed out the microphone in his hand.
"Excuse me, did you say that you were holding product launches all over the world at the same time, which means that the other launches were attended by the district managers?
Strictly speaking, these were two questions, but Danny forced them together.
After hearing Danny's question, Jiang Chen just smiled.
"I can hear a misunderstanding in your words. Let me start by saying that even if the launch event is held at 12 different locations around the world at the same time, I will be able to attend it in person. ”
Danny looked at Jiang Chen dumbfounded, not knowing what he meant. But the question was over, and he had to sit back.
After explaining the Los Angeles Daily's question, Jiang Chen did not name the reporter to ask questions, because he knew what they wanted to ask. And what they want to ask is exactly what he wants to explain.
"Presumably, all of you journalists here are familiar with one word. That's right, I'm talking about holographic projection. And standing here right now is my holographic projection. It is for this reason that I have to stress once again the order of the questioning. ”
After listening to what Jiang Chen said, there were whispers from the audience, and all the reporters looked at Jiang Chen standing on the stage in disbelief. For holographic projections, these journalists, of course, will not be unaware. However, until Jiang Chen confessed himself, none of them found out about this!
"But this ...... It's also too realistic. ”
Looking at Jiang Chen standing on the stage, Charles, who was sitting next to Danny, muttered quietly.
Danny's reaction, however, was stronger than Charles's. He often travels to Silicon Valley for interviews, and he knows a thing or two about these cutting-edge technologies. Today's holographic projection technology is very mature, and it is not difficult to make it real.
But all holograms must be pre-set. The application of holographic projection technology to the field of instant messaging, the three-dimensional image of the image collected on the spot, even the company that Nasdaq is best at "blowing bubbles", does not dare to make such unrealistic claims.
However, Future People Technology has quietly put this technology on the table?
God, is this really just a launch of the Phantom Helmet?
This crazy thought welled up in Danny's mind, and now he looked at the small notebook in his hand full of the main points of the question, and he actually showed a crying and laughing expression. Future Technology's unreasonable actions completely disrupted his routine.
Well, when you ask a formal question later, what exactly do you ask?
Danny's troubles are also the worries of all the media reporters here. Looking at the expressions on the faces of the reporters in the audience, the corners of Jiang Chen's mouth hooked up a smile.
That's what he wants.
This product launch conference is not the online game "God-level Continent", but the phantom helmet product! Virtual reality technology! Online games are just the tip of the iceberg in the application field of virtual reality technology, in order to make users all over the world inseparable from the product launched by Future People Technology, they must be shocked enough and crazy enough!
So, Jiang Chen opened his mouth again.
"By the way, I'm being interviewed by you in New China at the moment, through the Phantom Helmet. (To be continued.) )
