Chapter Forty-Six: The Choice of Ordinary People
In mid-to-late July, the results of the 07 college entrance examination have come out, and many high school students who have been admitted to the ideal university have begun to look forward to college life, and Shen Yingjie, a candidate in Beijing, is one of them.
Shen Yingjie is a student of Beijing No. 7 Middle School, and his academic performance has always been very good. After learning the news, Shen Yingjie's parents were very happy, especially Shen's father. In order to reward his son, Shen's father decided to give Shen Yingjie a laptop and a mobile phone.
The computer Shen Yingjie originally had, but it was a desktop one. For laptops, Shen Yingjie has no special expectations. But mobile phones are different, in high school, students were not allowed to use mobile phones, and now that they have finally graduated, Shen Yingjie can't wait to have a mobile phone of his own.
Before buying a mobile phone, Shen Yingjie checked a lot of information on the Internet. He is a person who is very serious about everything, and he can't be sloppy with his first mobile phone.
In the end, Shen Yingjie picked Nokia's new N95.
"The double slide cover design is cool enough, and the Symbian system is stable enough, which is much stronger than the domestic mobile phone operating system......"
Shen Yingjie likes to study electronic products the most on weekdays, and he knows a lot about the configuration of mobile phones, computers, etc., and those terms that are obscure in the eyes of others seem to him at a glance. With just the introduction, Shen Yingjie can get a general idea of the performance of a mobile phone or computer.
"But it's too expensive."
Shen Yingjie's ideal price is about 5,000 yuan, but the price of this N95 in the capital is more than 8,000, which is much more than his budget.
So, Shen Yingjie hesitated.
"Let's look at the others." Shen Yingjie slid the mouse, and after that, "starry sky" appeared in his eyes.
"Hey, this phone looks even better than the N95......"
Seeing the appearance of the "starry sky", Shen Yingjie's eyes lit up.
"It's also a double slide design, the screen is similar to the N95, but the body is thinner. From the looks of it, this phone is even cooler! Take a look at the specific performance parameters......"
The more Shen Yingjie looked, the more interested he became, and clicked on the specific introduction of "Starry Sky".
"Dong Chou and Liu Yifei endorse?" Shen Yingjie saw the advertisement of the "Starry Sky" mobile phone, and was faintly excited in his heart, these two are his favorite stars, but he didn't expect to endorse a product at the same time.
"It's actually a domestic smartphone, and the operating system is also domestic." Shen Yingjie was slightly disappointed, not that he admired foreign flattery, but that the domestic manufacturers' performance was too poor, and the operating system was even more shortcoming. Especially for his kind of picky customers, there are really few bright spots in domestic mobile phones.
Skipping the operating system part, Shen Yingjie began to look at the hardware collocation.
"In terms of hardware, it is not inferior to N95, and the standby time is more than N9520%, which will not be false advertising, right?"
After watching it from top to bottom, Shen Yingjie was shocked, it was really too much "starry sky" beyond his expectations, so that Shen Yingjie began to doubt the authenticity of the advertisement.
"Is there a mobile phone like this in China?"
Shen Yingjie couldn't help but think.
In fact, "Starry Sky" is comparable to N95 in hardware, and other domestic manufacturers can do it as long as they do it. It's just that in this way, the cost of mobile phones will increase significantly, and the price will inevitably rise. In the domestic mobile phone competition, price is a very important factor. In order to control prices, domestic mobile phone manufacturers have no choice but to use relatively backward hardware facilities.
Lu Yang's "starry sky" dares to be on par with the N95, and he has his own confidence. Although Tianxin Technology has spent a lot of money on hardware equipment, in the production process, with the help of primary electronic product design technology, Lu Yang has reduced the cost of mobile phones.
"Just listed, the price is less than 40000 ......" After carefully reading the introduction of "Starry Sky", Shen Yingjie was half curious, half skeptical, and he couldn't fully believe the information on the Internet before seeing the real thing, although this mobile phone was his two favorite celebrity endorsements.
Early the next morning, Shen Yingjie went to the Hailong Mansion with his parents, and he really wanted to know how the "starry sky" was and whether it was as good as advertised.
During the summer vacation, Hailong Building is particularly lively, and like Shen Yingjie, many students who have just finished their high school careers come here to buy computers and mobile phones.
"Dad, here!" Shen Yingjie had already checked the address on the Internet before he came, and soon found a mobile phone store.
"Yingjie, don't you like Nokia's N95, I remember Nokia's store is on the 3rd floor, right?" Father Shen knew his son's plans and asked.
Shen Yingjie said: "I want to take a look at another mobile phone first, produced in China, but it is said that the performance is not inferior to the N95, and the price is cheap." ”
Shen Fuqi said: "Are you talking about the 'starry sky' mobile phone?" ”
"Dad, you know that too?"
Father Shen nodded and said, "Yes, the advertisements promoted some time ago were overwhelming. However, some of the domestic propaganda cannot be taken seriously......"
"Let's go see what the hell is going on."
The three of them walked into a mobile phone store, which was the one Lu Yang and Su Yan had come to before.
Compared to the first day, there were a lot more people at the "Starry Sky" mobile phone counter.
"Are the three of you here to buy a mobile phone?" The salesman who entertained Lu Yang at the beginning saw Shen Yingjie's family and hurriedly greeted him.
Shen's father and Shen's mother didn't speak, and motioned to Shen Yingjie as the main one, Shen Yingjie took a look at it, and asked the salesman to take out a "starry sky" mobile phone.
"Can you give it a try?" Shen Yingjie said.
The salesman smiled, "Of course." ”
Looking at the shape of the mobile phone, Shen Yingjie couldn't help but have some expectations, from the appearance, the "starry sky" is indeed better than N95, he found the power button and pressed it. Five seconds later, the boot animation appeared, and a bright starry sky slowly emerged from the darkness, and finally lit up the entire screen, and then, a sharp golden light passed through the starry sky and fell to the earth. At the end of the picture, the logo of Tianxin Technology Company (logo) appeared, a round crystal ball, and the crystal ball seemed to be able to reflect the world.
The entire boot animation takes only six seconds.
Shen Yingjie nodded silently, and the start-up response was still very sensitive.
Opening the operation screen, Shen Yingjie's expression became serious.
"The advertisement says that the operating system of 'Starfield' is not inferior to that of the N95 Symbian, but I want to see if it's true."
Shen Yingjie is most skeptical about this, you must know that the Symbian system is a real-time, multi-tasking pure 32-bit operating system, with less energy consumption and less memory occupation, which is very suitable for mobile phones. And Nokia also has high hopes for this system. Shen Yingjie found it hard to believe that there was a company in China that could develop a mobile phone operating system that surpassed Symbian.
The icon of "Starry Sky" is arranged in a nine-square grid, and the various functions seem to be clear at a glance.
After clicking a few icons, Shen Yingjie repeatedly turned them on and off, which really reflected the stability of the system.
"It runs smoothly and responsively, and it seems to have a lot more to the system than the Sebai system, and the experience is much more comfortable......"
Shen Yingjie once played with N95 mobile phones, and he also knows a lot about the Sebai system. However, when he operated the "starry sky", he had a feeling in his heart that the reaction of the "starry sky" made people more comfortable.
"Tianxin Technology Company, a very unfamiliar name, but to be able to make such a mobile phone, it will definitely not be nameless ......in the future," Shen Yingjie opened the logo of Tianxin Technology on the back of the mobile phone, and there was a kind of expectation in his heart.
"Yingjie, what do you think?" Shen's father saw his son playing with his mobile phone repeatedly, and couldn't help asking, he knew that his son usually studied electronic products, and when he bought a mobile phone, his son's opinion would prevail.
Shen Yingjie raised his head: "Dad, this phone is really good, and it is even better than N95 in terms of function!" ”
The salesman next to him listened and said busily: "Compared with N95, the standby time of 'Starry Sky' is longer, the system is more stable, and the probability of crashing is much smaller." And, it's worth half as much as N95! ”
Shen's father and Shen's mother glanced at each other, and the two of them were a little moved. Although the Shen family is not short of money, it is not a rich family, and if his son chooses this mobile phone, the family can also save more than 3,000 yuan.
However, after all, whether the two bought a mobile phone for their son still depends on his opinion.
"Dad, just buy this." Shen Yingjie didn't think about it for long before making a decision. The salesman smiled happily and hurriedly filled in the form and went through the formalities for him.
