See the fastest updates
To Li Xiaole's surprise, I don't know whether "Time Magazine" was intentional or unintentional, in this photo as the cover, Jobs's eyes were full of "love" when he looked at him, and his delicate appearance was even more "ambiguous", in the eyes of many Americans, it was like an old gay hooking up with an innocent teenager......
Needless to say, the influence of Time Magazine is natural, but everyone doesn't seem to notice Li Xiaole's suffix marked with the director of "Life Remote Control", but regards him as the gossip of Jobs's "little boyfriend" as a topic after dinner~~
Even the famous gay magazine "Suck" joined in the fun, being voted the number one photo of the week in "My Favourite" with the words: "A picture of a wise mature man with an innocent Asian boy is full of romance." β
In the evening, sitting on the bench, Scarlett looked at the reports on the Internet, covered her stomach hahadaxiao, and laughed at Li Xiaole in front of Lei Ting:
"For the sake of publicity, you also sacrificed a lot ~ It's a pity that you were wronged to be the little boyfriend of that sloppy man, and people don't know the name of your movie yet......"
"How did I know that this Time Magazine is so unprofessional~~!!" Li Xiaole was also full of indignation, eager to tear up all the "Time Magazine" published in this issue, originally wanted to promote the movie, but he didn't expect the focus to become him and Jobs "passionate"...... It didn't work out at all.
"I think this is very good, I think the recent box office trend should be able to exceed the goal of 50 million, don't be too greedy." Lei Ting comforted Li Xiaole and said, now that the situation is unexpectedly good, you can't ask for too much.
"100 million, at least 100 million, otherwise it will be difficult for me to do it next." Li Xiaole sighed and said.
"Anyway, it doesn't cost money to make a movie, and with the box office share, we have eased our breath for the time being, let's take our time." Lei Ting comforted him in a cold tone, she did feel like walking a tightrope over a cliff before, but this time "Life Remote Control" had a good box office, and it was enough for Lianmei to stabilize.
"Who said that Lianmei is just making movies...... Li Xiaole looked at her and frowned: "Wait, the day after tomorrow is Apple's press conference, and that is the time for me to promote the movie, and I will promote it fiercely when the time comes."
"Perhaps...... But I don't think you'll be the point. Lei Ting said lukewarmly, she didn't know the details of Li Xiaole's cooperation with Apple, thinking that she was just laying out some movie posters at the press conference, and she didn't know that Li Xiaole would speak at the much-anticipated Apple press conference.
Who didn't expect that two days later, a press conference that will go down in history began, and the launch of the iPhone in San Francisco caused a feverish response.
Dressed in a black top, jeans and a pair of sneakers, Steve Jobs presented the new product in his usual master style. Just like when the iPod was released before, Jobs said in a seemingly flat tone:
"Every once in a while, there is an epoch-making product, the first Macintosh, which changed the computer industry, and the first iPod, which changed the entire music industry...... And today, we're launching three revolutionary products of this calibre, the first is a widescreen touch iPod, the second is a revolutionary mobile phone, and the third is a groundbreaking Internet communication device. β
In the cheers of the people below, Jobs repeated this sentence with a smile to emphasize, and then he said something that was later hailed as a classic:
"Do you understand? This is not three separate devices, but one device, which we call an iPhone. β
As soon as this name, which was destined to become a classic, was spoken, everyone present burst into applause and cheers, but no one expected that Jobs, who had always been strong, would make a move that surprised everyone, and he stretched out his hand to the audience with a smile:
"Next, let's ask Mr. Li Xiaole, the designer of iphione, to introduce its functions to you~"
Everyone was stunned and watched a young Chinese man with a delicate face and a thin figure come to the stage and step into the spotlight.
"Who is this? Why wasn't Jobs coming to release? What is Apple doing? β
"I don't understand, didn't iphoine design Jobs?"
"It seems to be the Chinese designer who worked with Steve Jobs as reported by Time magazine, but it looks too young......
In a long period of stunned discussion, this Chinese named Happyγ»li began his performance, and after a few simple greetings and jokes, and livening up the atmosphere, Li Xiaole officially entered the theme.
"Please look at the big screen, there are four so-called 'smartphones', Motorola, Blackberry, Palm, Nokia, their biggest problem is the 40% area below, the ugly keyboards, yes, strictly speaking, they are disgusting...... How to fix it? Well, what we need is a huge screen, how to do it? Mouse? Stylus? Throw away that ugly thing~ We have the most haode operation tool, fingers~"
"See the swiping screen in our day-to-day operations? Open and close your fingers to zoom in and out of the photo~"
"The phone is equipped with a gravimeter, which allows you to play traffic jam games like driving the steering wheel, which of course also means that the phone will adjust the size of the picture itself according to your screen orientation......"
Every time Li Xiaole introduced a new feature of an iPhone, there was a "wow" sound in the audience, and then there was screaming and cheering, waves of shocking sexual revolution functions, which made everyone addicted, and everyone looked at Li Xiaole's eyes from the initial contempt to reverence, it seems that people have slowly forgotten his age and complexion, and are slowly conquered by his design talent.
Even Andy Hertzfield, Bill Atkinson, and Steve Wozniak, who were seated in the audience, these design masters who have been crowned with great titles in the industry, couldn't help but stand up and applaud excitedly.
Although Li Xiaole sneered at his competitors and some people were unhappy, anyone who knows a little about the industry knows that Apple's first mobile phone product is at least 5 years ahead of other competitors in the industry in terms of jishu and design......
This makes everyone feel unbelievable, what kind of industry can be disrupted by a newcomer to the industry as soon as it appears, and the designer behind this is still so young......
Seeing that the atmosphere of the scene was almost over, Li Xiaole introduced the main purpose of his visit today in a joking tone:
"We reset the UI on our iPhone, install a lot of apps, such as Google Maps, so you can always know where you are, where you are in the United States, and you can find out how to get home.
What's more, you can also watch online movies on your mobile phone, book tickets, you can check the movie information of national movies, by the way, the designer is just my part-time job, the director is my main business, the poster you see on the screen now is a movie called "Life Remote Control", which is my work, and it is now being released in major theaters, Jobs told that the shooting is really good, if you want to refute him, you can go to the cinema to see the ......"
Everyone at the scene was stunned...... There were also some people who laughed on the spot, this Chinese designer is really joking, such a genius design as the iPhone is actually made part-time? So how awesome is he going to be a director......"
This whole day, at this sensational press conference in the United States, not only Li Xiaole's brilliant appearance made all Americans know him, but more importantly, the name of the movie "Life Remote Control" has become everyone's topic.
Two days later, the revolutionary effect of the iPhone began to explode, and on the cover of The Economist magazine, Jobs and Li Xiaole were wearing robes and halos on their heads, holding the "Jesus mobile phone" iPhone in the hands of industry insiders, because only God can find such a perfect craft.
The New York Times, the Los Angeles Times also published similar praise reports, and the Wall Street Journal bluntly stated: "The last time humans were so excited about a rectangular thing was because there were ten commandments on it." β
Compared with the master Jobs, Li Xiaole, who was born out of nowhere, is more eye-catching, of course, the media will not let him go, many media dig up his information, only to suddenly find that he is recognized as a talented director in Asia, Devin Harris, the famous caustic critic of the New York Times, even sighed:
"I used to think that a person has to spend a lifetime to achieve success in a certain field, and I hate this Chinese kid's arrogant remarks at the press conference, so I went to the cinema to watch "Life Remote" the night after watching the iPhone press conference...... But I have to admit it now, damn it!! God is so unfair!! This Chinese kid is incredible, and I like this movie more than the iPhone. β
There are many social contributors like Devon Harris, and when they talk about Li Xiaole, they all express their feelings about this movie, director Li Xiaole, and the words "Life Remote Control" appear in major media frequently.
So many cutting-edge people in the science and technology industry applauded a movie together, which makes people more curious, this Chinese who came out of nowhere actually did two big things? It's still making a lot of noise, almost everyone is discussing it, how can I miss it?
Buying an iPhone and watching a "Life Remote Control" seems to have evolved into a fashionable trend...
