Chapter 1038 iPhone Generation Launch
At the end of August, Li Feiteng flew from Yanjing to San Francisco, where he was going to attend a particularly important press conference.
Press conference for the global launch of the iPhone 3G.
It is completely different from the iPhone1 researched by Jobs, the iPhone1 developed by Li Feiteng has taken many detours, for example, in terms of memory storage capacity, the iPhone1 developed by Li Feiteng is only an 8G version, and the price is not high, only $399.
Functionally, it supports 3G network, and it has not signed a contract with any communication operator at all, but has cooperated with the satellite company invested by Li Feiteng, launched the mobile phone GPS positioning function, and carried out in-depth cooperation with Google, providing Google map positioning software on the mobile phone for the first time.
This game, at the Mascoone Convention Center in San Francisco in January this year, Apple's chief designer Luo and Jeeben together at the product launch conference, let everyone know what kind of work iPhone1 is.
And Li Feiteng came this time, he was more of a pre-war mobilization, so that more people came to buy the first generation of mobile phones launched by Apple.
β¦β¦
That night, at a hotel in San Francisco, a large number of Apple fans and media reporters from all over the world gathered.
Everyone gathered in the hall of the press conference, Li Feiteng wore a very casual black gown, a pair of jeans underneath, and he wore a pair of glasses, and walked onto the stage from behind.
All the foreigners below, and they all shouted when they saw Li Feiteng.
"Woo!"
"Whoa!"
"King Lee!"
Li Feiteng walked in front of the multimedia computer with a smile, and after he smiled and clicked on the touch screen, it was on the central screen in the hall. Immediately, a blueprint with a black background appeared. In the middle there is a sign that flashes and glows. Undoubtedly, it was an apple that I took a bite of.
This apple is silver-gray and looks particularly eye-catching against a black background.
Li Feiteng walked to the middle, and he began to speak.
"I've been looking forward to this day for three years and six months. β
"Oh!
"Every once in a while, a revolutionary product comes along and changes a thing, but Apple, perhaps it should be said, is lucky enough to be able to participate in a revolutionary product in a lifetime. And Apple was very fortunate to be able to introduce some of these products to you in the past few days. β
"IN 1984, WE RELEASED THE MAC COMPUTER, AND IT CHANGED NOT ONLY APPLE, BUT THE ENTIRE COMPUTER INDUSTRY. β
THE AUDIENCE WATCHED THE FIRST-GENERATION MAC COMPUTERS THAT APPEARED ON THE SCREEN, AND THEY ALL APPLAUDED AND SHOUTED.
The applause lasted for a long time, and it was a full ten seconds before it stopped.
"IN 2001, WE RELEASED THE FIRST IPOD, WELL, IT NOT ONLY ADAPTED PEOPLE'S HABITS OF LISTENING TO MUSIC, IT ALSO CHANGED THE ENTIRE MUSIC INDUSTRY, BUT TODAY WE ARE GOING TO RELEASE FIVE OF THESE PRODUCTS. β
"THE FIRST WAS THE FIRST WIDESCREEN IPOD WITH A TOUCHSCREEN CONTROL. β
The scene suddenly erupted in shouts again. Because the logo of Apple's music software appeared on the screen, it sparked shouts from fans. The applause and shouts were long.
After a moment's wait, he continued: "The second piece, a revolutionary mobile phone. β
"The third is a breakthrough Internet communication tool. β
The applause was even more enthusiastic.
Li Feiteng said with a smile: "The fourth piece is a surfing tool that can quickly surf the Internet. β
Google Chrome appeared on the big screen, and the applause at the scene reached a climax at once, with everyone applauding and shouting, and many people whistling.
"The fifth, a personal satellite GPS so that you don't get lost in the world. β
When he said this, the audience saw the standard of Google Maps, and the atmosphere and mood instantly reached a bursting state, and everyone stood up one after another, applauding with a tide of applause, and shouting and cheering!
"Well, five products, a widescreen IPOD with a touchscreen control, a revolutionary mobile phone, a groundbreaking Internet communication tool, a tool for fast Internet surfing, and a personal satellite GPS map that you won't get lost in the world. β
LI FEITENG PAUSED, AND HE REPEATED: "AN IPOD, A MOBILE PHONE, AN INTERNET COMMUNICATION TOOL, A SURFING TOOL, A SATELLITE GPS MAP ......"
Everyone laughed suddenly, because Li Feiteng had been repeating, yes, the important thing was to repeat it three times.
"ONE IPOD, ONE MOBILE PHONE, ONE INTERNET ......"
After the last repetition, everyone laughed and applauded, which was so funny!
"Do you understand what I'm talking about?" Li Feiteng asked very sternly, "This is not five separate devices, this is one device!"
The audience in the audience laughed one after another, and the camera of the live broadcast was also hurriedly aimed at the audience, and everyone was very happy, because this is really a kind of expression of Li Feiteng's humor.
"We named this product - Love Crazy!"
Li Feiteng said, and on the big screen behind him, the four big characters of iPhone immediately appeared.
The audience whistled and shouted incessantly, and he continued: "Today we are going to reinvent the phone!"
Li Feiteng smiled, pointed to the big screen behind him and said, "That's it." β
SUDDENLY, A PICTURE OF THE FIRST GENERATION OF IPODS APPEARED BEHIND ME, AND THE AUDIENCE BELOW BURST OUT LAUGHING BECAUSE THE SLIDES WERE WRONG.
As soon as Li Feiteng turned around, he hurriedly smiled and said, "No, it's not it, put it away." β
A very bright mobile phone immediately appeared on the screen, a full touch screen iPhone3G.
Li Feiteng continued with a smile: "Let's talk about some of the so-called 'smartphones' on the market right now. β
They said that there was a phone and some email functionality, as well as some of the little internet features. And it's all on some device with a plastic keyboard. They're not smart enough. It is also very inconvenient and difficult to use, for example, let's make a typical business chart, one axis is on behalf of the intelligent program, one axis is on behalf of the easy-to-use program, ordinary machines are generally under the axis, they are not smart enough, and it is also very difficult, the intelligent machine will be smarter. But they're actually harder to use, just the simplest features, and people don't know how to use them. β
"Neither of these is our goal, we want to make a leap forward in making a product that is much smarter than all smartphones and easier to use. And that's where our iPhone is. β
"So, we reinvented the phone -- the iPhone, and that's the iPhone!"
β¦β¦
An hour later, Philip Lee's speech ended, for the audience. iPhones are more expected, and most importantly. After this speech, the iPhone was already available in the Apple store online.
At the same time, on major TV stations, a propaganda advertisement shot by Li Feiteng himself, a very brainwashing advertisement, is a video of Li Feiteng's speech.
Among them, the advertising slogan of the iPhone is - we have reinvented the mobile phone - iPhone, this is the iPhone!
It seems to be a very pretentious advertisement, but it is indeed the ultimate self-confidence that Apple has.
Li Feiteng has never been so confident, when the iPhone is born, the world will be his.
On August 31, Apple's online store sold 1,000 experience machines.
Apple does not use online sales, but after the official reservation, you can experience it in reality before you can get the phone.
Of course, after September 1st, all 45 Apple stores around the world, pΓΉ, have also started to sell.
History re-enacts once again, and the Apple store in every developed magnesium city has a long queue of fruit fans the night before, and on September 1, nearly 2,000 people have lined up in front of the Apple store in San Francisco.
In the whole country, on September 1, a total of nearly 70,000 people lined up to buy iPhones.
The official standard price for an iPhone is $399, and in the United States, Apple stores earned $30 million on the first day.
In Asia, a total of 7 specialty stores in the island country of Dongjing, Hanguo Seoul, Taiwo Taipei, Xiangjiang, inland Shanghi, Shenchuan, and Yanjing have also begun to be listed.
The price of the iPhone is 5,200 yen.
In Taipei, the iPhone is priced at NT$13,888.
In Hong Kong, the price of the iPhone is HK$5,288.
In the inland, the price of the iPhone is 9880 yuan.
In various places, because of different taxes, Li Feiteng did not deliberately make the price of the iPhone in the inland high, but the tax was too heavy, if he did not raise the price, after he paid taxes, the iPhone completely lost a lot of profit space.
The most important thing is that although Li Feiteng is the boss of Apple, if he wants Apple to become stronger and bigger, he still needs to make money from the inland.
Even though the price is high in the inland, but in the world, the most popular iPhone is still in the three specialty stores of Shanghi, Shenchuan and Yanjing.
In these three places, Li Feiteng established Apple stores are also super stores, each of which is thousands of square meters.
However, the three specialty stores, in addition to Apple, also have his other products, such as Feiteng Electronics.
In this way, he also took advantage of Apple's brand to sell his own electronic products by the way.
Therefore, in fact, the three most profitable stores of Li Feiteng are the apple stores in these three cities.
As the so-called Apple technology hypermarket was established in the name of Apple, all the company's electronic genuine products are sold here, and all of them are high-end luxury products, born for local tyrants and died for local tyrants.
On the evening of September 8th, the Apple store in Shanghi, that is, Wanda Plaza, gathered fruit fans from all over the country, and there were 1,000 people in line, and by 9 o'clock in the morning the next day, there were already a sea of people gathered in front of the store, and no one knew how many people there were.
