Chapter 533: I'm afraid of him
readx; "I don't say this to hit you, but to tell you the reason why this product will be rejected by many investors, in terms of creativity, maybe the power of one or two people may win over a mature large group company, but from the perspective of market prediction, such a possibility is very low. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 There will be exceptions, of course, but obviously there will not be such a one-sided situation that will happen to you, at least some companies will be interested. Although Shi Lei could see that the mood of the two of them had begun to become a lot lower, they were still very calm.
In fact, Pamela and Wojin have listened a lot to all kinds of rejections, the reason why Shi Lei can make them realize where the fatal flaw of this product is with a few simple words is not that Shi Lei will make the other party surrender with a shake of his domineering spirit, but because Shi Lei almost every sentence goes to their hearts. Whether it is the future prospect of this product or their initial design ideas, Shi Lei seems to have participated in the whole process. It is precisely because Shi Lei seems to know more about this product than the two of them that Pamela and Woking are completely convinced of Shi Lei.
"I think we know why we keep being rejected, and it's true that we didn't take it into account at all, or we gave it to other mediums, rather than designing the product itself. Failed product, thank you for your advice. Pamela sighed, stood up, and seemed to want to leave, fortunately, Shi Lei didn't see too much discouragement from him, there must be loss, but more of it was still a strong fighting spirit.
Seeing that Wojin was also about to get up, Shi Lei beckoned and smiled: "Don't be in a hurry to go, I won't invest in your product, it doesn't mean that we have no other possibilities for cooperation." ”
"What else is possible? We're not the masters of technology development as you think, and our programming skills combined are not as good as a senior engineer. ”
"It's also fortunate that you don't plan to develop in the direction of technology research and development, otherwise I wouldn't be interested in continuing to communicate with you." Shi Lei signaled Pamela to be restless, and then turned his face and said to Hou Hengzhi in Chinese: "Old Hou, you can briefly explain to the two of them the main research and development topics of the Pingjing R&D Center, about touch screen technology and handheld computers, just talk about it in general terms." ”
Hou Hengzhi nodded, smiled and opened his mouth to the two British college students who were a little dazed, what Shi Lei wanted him to explain, was actually the concept of a tablet computer that was later successful in that life. Of course, at this time, all this is just a prototype, Shi Lei's understanding of tablet computers is limited, and what he can tell Hou Hengzhi and Xu Kejia and others is very limited, but this kind of thing is always to be handed over to designers and technicians to do, and Shi Lei is just giving them an inspiration for their thinking.
This set of things, Shi Lei believes that even if he goes to tell Jobs now, he may be considered too advanced, but it is used to be used with people like Pamela and Woking, who have a strong jump in thinking and are already very advanced, but the effect is very good, and they seem to be quickly attracted by the future computer development trend and entertainment application methods described by Hou Hengzhi, and then when Shi Lei finally added, telling them that the product they are designing now can be placed on the tablet as an application in the futureand their eyes began to sparkle.
"But, such a big ......," Woking gestured with both hands, "can such a large computer have enough computing power to be technically possible?" Moreover, some of the features he just mentioned seem to be only seen in science fiction films. ”
Shi Lei laughed: "PDA is only a big palm, doesn't it also have enough computing power?" I don't want this kind of modern computer to handle large data, and the foreground can be completely single-threaded. I need you to solve all kinds of novel ideas and product design concepts. But I'm a little worried about what you're doing right now, and what I need is a way of thinking that doesn't matter if it's achievable, not your current idea of worrying that technology won't be achievable. ”
Woking scratched his head a little ashamedly, and Pamela waved his long hands very excitedly: "Ignore him, it's like this every time, I'm in charge of crankiness, he's in charge of judging possible surnames, and once he finds out that one percent of them can be used as surnames, he will be far more crazy than me." Shi, do you want us to join your company? ”
Shi Lei smiled and nodded: "I have such an idea, but I still need you to verify your ability with me." As for how to verify it, I think you should have your own answer. Before the end of this show, I need you to provide a ...... Well, as you just said, there is even one percent of the stuff that can be...... Whether it's a toy, or an electronic product like yours, you don't need to have a prototype, as long as you have enough ideas. However, there is one more thing to remind you that if you can satisfy me, then you will need to leave London and go to work in Pingjing, the capital of China. Of course, you can also think about it. ”
Pamela and Woking nodded at the same time: "We'll think about it very seriously!" But before we can do that, we need to go back and finish your test of us. ”
Shi Lei smiled again: "I'll give you a hint, although it is impossible for me to invest in your product, but this idea is good, perhaps, you can consider implementing it in other media." Different carriers, different modes of operation, do not need to be detailed, just have a prototype. ”
This can be regarded as Shi Lei releasing water, because he thinks that the things designed by these two people are too much like the prototype of Facebook or Twitter, and it seems that no one is in Mark? Zuckerberg thought of a similar product before, but the implementation was different, coupled with a lot of luck, to achieve Facebook's later status, and then there was Mark? Zuckerberg, the super-rich man known as the second generation of Gates. Facebook was officially launched in 04, so Mark? Zuckerberg had such an idea, most likely in '03 or a little earlier. However, apparently it was not to the same extent that Pamela and Woking did, but for some reason, in the trajectory of that life, these two guys obviously did not succeed in turning their ideas into profitable projects, and Mark? Zuckerberg did.
"Oh my God, I think I've got a lot on my mind now...... Shi, I'm going to go back now and record the thoughts that keep popping up in my head, otherwise, they'll soon slip away. "Pamela is obviously the kind of guy with an energetic cerebral cortex like a jumping bean, and once excited, this guy can probably go a week without sleep and just indulge in his weird ideas.
Looking at Pamela, who had already run to the door, Wojin shrugged his shoulders helplessly at Shi Lei: "I'm sorry, my friend is like this, our dormitory has been tossed by him and is about to cause big trouble!" Big trouble! If our principal came to our dormitory, he would have kicked us out of Imperial College! I must catch up with him, or he will get lost! With that, Woking hurried towards the gate.
Shi Lei looked at these two people, laughed, and then turned his face to Hou Hengzhi and said, "Do these two people look like Sherlock Holmes and his assistant Watson?" ”
Hou Hengzhi thought about it carefully: "Pamela is Sherlock Holmes, neurotic, and all kinds of impulses, while Woking is Watson, who seems to be more stable than Pamela, but he is actually a madman." ”
Shi Lei nodded with a smile, and Hou Hengzhi added: "I only hope that if these two guys really join the group, they won't have problems with our technical department all day long." ”
"I hope this Pamela doesn't play the ugly violin like Sherlock Holmes, and every now and then pull out a gun and shoot at the wall. Of course, the scariest thing is that this guy must not be as toxic as Sherlock Holmes. ”
Hou Hengzhi was stunned: "Is Sherlock Holmes a drug addict?" ”
Shi Lei didn't answer, but looked at the time, it was more than three o'clock in the afternoon, and it should be more than eight o'clock in the country, and it was almost time to call the wind forest.
After saying hello to Qin Mubei, Shi Lei left the Beizhen Convention and Exhibition Center, found a place to sit down by the Seine River, asked for a cup of coffee, and called Wind Forest.
There was no greeting on the phone, Shi Lei directly told the wind forest the news revealed by Ling Dongsheng and the results of his discussion with Gu Qin, naturally it was impossible to be as detailed as what he said to Qin Mubei, just a more general and general introduction. The focus is on once this is done, it is tantamount to openly declaring war on Datang, and I am afraid that it will be squeezed by Datang in the future, Shi Lei needs Feng Forest to understand, in fact, it is only the pressure and negative impact caused by this incident.
Shi Lei originally thought that with the surname of Wind Forest, he would think about it for at least a while, but he didn't expect him to give an answer in one bite.
"Let's do it! Anyway, the biggest risk is with you, and I don't have much investment, and I've already made a lot of money in the past two years. However, I don't understand it, even if Datang has always had a grudge against us, it shouldn't be done at this juncture, there is still a Huawei over there. Alas...... Forget it, this can't lead to anything, anyway, let's do it! I'm afraid of him! ”
"Old Feng, this is extraordinary, don't you need to think about it again?" Shi Lei has to ask again after all
