Chapter 41 [The first generation of QQ mobile phone press conference]

April 30, 2001, Pudong District, Huhai City. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

In a hotel near Lujiazui, a large conference room on the third floor has now become the site of the press conference of Queqiao Mobile Phone Company. The venue has already begun to carry out the final round of inspections, and the security guards and greeters have all been in place, waiting for the guests and reporters to arrive.

This small conference room can accommodate more than 1,000 people in total. On the stage at the front of the conference room is a huge LCD screen, which is currently LG's latest product, worth two million dollars.

However, Queqiao Company only rented this display screen and did not plan to buy it, so the cost only needs 500,000 yuan.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, all the media reporters and guests were already in place, and the scene was full.

Dragon TV obtained the right to broadcast the live broadcast of the press conference, and set up the camera at the scene early, turned on and adjusted the relevant equipment, and prepared to start the live broadcast.

In order to ensure this press conference, Lin Jingkang directly spent 35 million US dollars on publicity and advertising, and almost spent all his manuscript fees.

In addition to inviting the presidents of Internet companies such as Baidu and NetEase, there are also executives of mobile phone companies such as Motorola, Ericsson, Samsung, and other people from all walks of life to participate!

Of course, all the executives of his company were also present at the press conference.

He Xianhui and Zhu Hancai, who were sitting in the front row, were the most excited at this moment, their long-cherished wish for many years and the struggle of most of the year day and night, finally ushered in the moment of harvest.

For the product introduction of this mobile phone conference, they all unanimously praised Lin Jingkang, not only because he is the chairman, but also because he is the technical developer of this mobile phone and the initiator of the conference.

At 2:15, Zhong Zihan, as the host of the press conference, had already come to the front of the display screen on the stage. She didn't hold anything in her hand, just a miniature microphone in front of her chest, and I saw her smile with a spring breeze on her face:

"Welcome all of you to come to the product launch conference of Queqiao Mobile Phone Company in your busy schedule, and thank the media reporters for their strong support for this conference."

"I am the host of this press conference, my name is Zhong Zihan. The theme of this product launch conference is 'Queqiao mobile phone, you deserve it', I think everyone can't wait to know our company's products, right? No problem, let's welcome Mr. Qiao Lin, Chief Technical Architecture Engineer of our company, with warm applause. ”

The people at the bottom applauded, and many people didn't quite understand what the position of technical architecture engineer was. But as long as it's related to technology, it's high, they don't need to understand, they just need to know that it's very powerful.

As the leader of the mobile phone industry, Motorola has always dominated the entire market. If they hadn't learned from Ericsson and other rival companies that Queqiao's main product this time was actually a high-tech mobile phone that would not appear in the next four to five years, they would definitely not have agreed to Queqiao's invitation.

Edson, an executive sent by Motorola, was originally the manager of the marketing department and had an extremely keen eye for mobile phones.

"Chief Technical Architecture Engineer? Hehe, don't be ashamed for a while! Edson sneered.

Lin Jingkang is wearing dark blue jeans and a white shirt today, very casual. The face has been technically retouched by a makeup artist, and it looks about thirty years old, and with a pair of large toad glasses, it looks very handsome and dry.

"Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen! I'm Jolin, thank you so much for coming! ”

"Times are evolving, and we are always improving. Today, I'm bringing you an unbeatable super high-tech phone. Of course, no matter how well I say it, it's all pale. Please watch a small video first, so that you have a preliminary understanding of this mobile phone. ”

I have to say that the tall and handsome Lin Jingkang is particularly photogenic, so as soon as he appeared, the media reporters were all dazzled.

And the other guests, especially executives like Edson, looked disdainful, why should they be so handsome at the fashion show? And, in general, how many of the high-tech guys are handsome?

This short little video is only two minutes long, and the first person to appear on the big screen is an old woman. She was sitting in front of a very ordinary house, a middle-aged woman was holding a mobile phone next to her, and the grandmother was smiling very happily at the phone.

The camera changes, and a young man in an exotic country appears on the mobile phone in the middle-aged woman's hand, and the young man in the mobile phone is holding the mobile phone while pointing to the building next to him and introducing.

Instant video calling! Everyone at the scene was shocked and shocked! If the technology in the video just now can really be realized, then Queqiao's mobile phone is indeed high-tech.

At least, none of the world's mobile phone companies have developed such a technology.

It's the technology that sweeps all mobile phones!

The little video is still playing. After the young man hung up the video call, he snapped a photo and passed it to his friend from the penguin chat. The camera zoomed in on the photo, and everyone was amazed, what a clear photo!

When a young man's friend saw the photo, he also sent a photo, which was a selfie! The main character of the photo is a beautiful girl, and the angle of view of the photo should be taken from a height of 45 degrees.

Therefore, the girl who was photographed is particularly beautiful, both from the angle and from the light and pixels, it is clear.

Of course, as professional journalists, they find that selfies are much more noisy than those taken by the rear camera.

After the small video was played, everyone was stunned, whether it was a mobile phone company or an Internet giant, they were all silent.

After a long time, the audience burst into warm applause. At this time, Lin Jingkang appeared again.

What is different from the previous cold reaction is that the eyes of the people at the scene who looked at him were hot. In particular, some mobile phone agents with capital stared at him almost with naked eyes, as if they saw a huge gold ingot.

"Through the video just now, everyone should have a certain understanding of our company's mobile phones. So next, I will explain to you one by one the main data of this named the first generation of Queqiao mobile phone, of course, it also has a very cute name, QQ mobile phone! ”

"Everyone, please look at the big screen, this phone only has four buttons, it is a smartphone, this is our company's original technology."

"The two buttons on the left are used to adjust the volume, and the one on the right is the power on and off button. And this one at the bottom of the phone's home screen is the main menu button. ”

"Speaking of which, you may be surprised, how do we dial the number and how do we send text messages? Don't worry, I'll explain it to you! ”

At the moment, there are one or two large screens broadcasting the press conference in major cities around the world, such as Times Square in New York, Tiananmen Square in Beijing, and People's Square in Shanghai.

Novel advertising methods, fresh press conference models, unparalleled high-tech mobile phones, all of this makes the passing crowd can't help but stop, looking at the mobile phone introduction on the big screen, they are itching and want one.

On Wangfujing Street in the capital, Xie Yunhan, who came out to sweep the goods today, was also staring at the big screen not far away.

She's a designer of a brand's clothing, and she's been particularly irritable these days, so she's out shopping and looking for inspiration.

She doesn't know much about mobile phones, and the Nokia 7110 that she just released last year is in her hand. This was the world's first mobile phone that supported the Internet at that time, and the price required more than 11,000.

However, she saw a mobile phone on the big screen today, and it can actually support video chat? Smartphones? High-tech phones?

A wave of new terms came to her, refreshing her perception of mobile phones, and in an instant she decided to buy this mobile phone.

So she sat down on a chair on the side of the street and looked at the big screen seriously.

Goshawk system? Is it that powerful? 100% handwriting recognition rate? Wow, that's amazing!

She had only sat and watched for more than ten minutes, and she already had a general understanding of what a smartphone was and what a goshawk system was. This phone is really very high-end, I just don't know how much it costs.

Lin Jingkang on the big screen is still introducing:

"The operating system of our QQ mobile phone has been introduced, so the following will be an introduction to other functions of the mobile phone."

"The phone has a two-megapixel rear camera that supports autofocus, and the 352x288 pixel high-definition video shooting capability is also worth commendating; On top of that, we also have a megapixel front camera that, like you've seen before, can take selfies! For ladies who love beauty and love selfies, this is a blessing for you! ”

"You can take a beautiful selfie anytime and anywhere, send it to your beloved boyfriend, I believe your boyfriend will like it very much. What's more, for long-distance couples, you can also relieve your lovesickness through instant video calls. ”

Wow! Everyone at the press conference exclaimed loudly, especially the women present, who were short of breath and flushed. The mobile phone agents even saw the stunning beauty, unable to extricate themselves, and grabbed the handle of the chair with both hands, their eyes were red.

On the contrary, mobile phone companies such as Motorola, Ericsson, Nokia and Samsung are all blue-faced and facing great enemies. They all whispered to their assistants to go out and make a call, and they must inform the company's senior management and pay attention to the press conference of Queqiao Mobile Phone Company.

For a while, mobile phones rang over and over again in an unknown number of places around the world, like an urge, especially urgent.

Su Xiaomei, Zhang Li, Song Wu, Chen Shicong, Hu Na and Zhong Zihan were also shocked, they just heard that Lin Jingkang was not doing his job. If they want to make a mobile phone, even if they spend $3,500 on advertising and publicity, they are not very optimistic.

However, now Lin Jingkang told them that this is his profession, this is his career.

The features of the Queqiao phone are undoubtedly very powerful, but what about the price?
