Chapter 542: World Premiere
Although there was an awkward situation at first, the life on Jeju Island became very leisurely and happy in the days that followed.
It wasn't until the end of January, the beginning of February, that Lee Chung-hee left Jeju Island and returned to Seoul, and at the same time, the news about the upcoming smartphone release of Imperial Electronics finally exploded in the global media, and quickly became a trend.
"Shocking, Dr. Li recently claimed that the smart phone developed by Imperial Electronics Company will be sold simultaneously in the world in advance, and its mobile phone conference will be broadcast live all over the world through TV, radio and Internet and other media, and the world will broadcast live ...... simultaneously!"
As for the reason, although Dr. Li said that it was because the company's colleagues worked very hard, the industry said that this was actually a smoke bomb that he had been putting off, in order to paralyze possible competitors......
Imperial Electronics is also headquartered in Silicon Valley, but on the edge, closer to the center of San Jose, where the new ring building was completed late last year and opened earlier this year.
Today, however, on the first weekend after Valentine's Day, it is in the global spotlight.
A little after five o'clock in the morning, Lee Chung-hee woke up from his residence in the suburbs of San Jose and went outside for about two hours before returning.
To be honest, Lee Chung-hee, who is used to having a smooth journey and has never failed, is a little nervous at this time, this mentality has been there since yesterday, and now, the closer it gets. The more so.
Tony pushed the door open from the next room. I saw him snorting and panting. smiled, "This thing is much more tiring than when I was exercising with women!" ”
"You're getting more and more like Duncan!" Lee Chung-hee also joked casually.
"Hey, hey, man, I'm here!" Duncan poked his head out of the balcony on the second floor, sleepy-eyed, like Tony and Lee Chung-hee.
All three of them have some insomnia, actually. Tony and Duncan only have a one-percent stake in Imperial Electronics in friendship, and they are not yet in the company, and they are still managing the Imperial Technologies group of companies.
Today, they are guests.
However, they and the imperial Lee family are one, and this was decided from the beginning of their Facebook business, or in other words, from the moment they and Lee Chung-hee became sworn friends, they were inseparable.
This is the simplest interpretation of party culture.
Therefore. After understanding the importance of the smartphone project to the entire Imperial Group of Companies, they were certainly excited. There was also some apprehension.
"Honestly, it's the first time I've seen you like this," Tony shrugged, picked up the brewed coffee from the side and poured it, "I still remember, when Facebook was opened, you kid didn't care at all, when Imperial Technology Group went public, you even felt like a loss, and you looked unhappy, but everyone was excited to become a billionaire ......!" ”
"That's because he's already a billionaire!"
Duncan grinned and snatched Tony's poured coffee and took a sip, burning his mouth and making him jump and jump like a chimpanzee.
"In my opinion, even if you fail, it's nothing!" Duncan said again, "I don't deny that your plan is very attractive, but I have to say that with the ability of this demon of yours, even if you fall this time, you will still be able to make up for it in other ways in the future!" ”
Lee Chung-hee shrugged, noncommittal.
He knows best how cool it is to quickly get enough capital and then go crazy to rob people, and when the time passes, you can't save enough of your own capital, so you can only watch people play very high, that feeling is terrible.
Moreover, his plan to quickly catch up with the others would fail completely, and it would be a long process to catch up again.
Think about the good thing that the annual sales are close to 200 billion yuan and the gross profit is close to 50% or even higher, where to find a second one.
It's not okay to rob a bank, and it's not okay to make oil profits, as far as the eye is concerned, this smartphone is the most popular, and it can also quickly make enough money, so that he can play willfully in the future.
It's just that there are some things that can't be said, even if it's a best friend, it's not about trust, but it sounds like nonsense.
It's not too late to wake up at five o'clock, especially for a person like Lee Chung-hee, who is also a superstar in the entertainment industry, although he tumbled last night, he slept for three or four hours.
But after talking to Tony again in the morning, he made up for sleep before lunch.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, he, Tony, and Duncan appeared in front of the headquarters square of the Imperial Electronics Company.
The square is very large, but at this time it is super lively, and there are reporters everywhere on it, and when they see him appear, they gather around him in an uproar.
It's not a red carpet or anything, there are no rules at all, everyone blocked the road all at once, and the water couldn't be leaked.
"Dr. Li, some people in the industry say that your smartphone is doing badly, but it's just a means of grandstanding to make money, do you have anything to say about this?"
"Dr. Li, some people say that in the mature mobile phone market, this intervention of yours will be the first Waterloo in your life, and it is doomed to failure!"
"Dr. Li, it is said that the wedding date for you and Alice has been set, can you tell us?"
"A lot of your fans oppose you getting married so early, saying that you are only twenty-three years old, and some fans even threaten that if you get married, they will kill themselves, which ......!"
Noisy and shouting, fortunately Li Mingze and they had experience, although they were surrounded at first, they quickly made way for them.
Lee Chung-hee didn't answer any of the reporters' questions, just smiled, occasionally waved to a familiar person, and then quickly entered the company.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the press conference officially began, and Lee Chung-hee finally appeared in the huge studio specially set up by Imperial Electronics Company, and first raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet before starting his work.
Generally speaking, the smartphone released by Imperial Electronics should have the company's CEO, or chief technologist and others to be the protagonist of this press conference, for example, Apple used Jobs.
However, it must be said that Steve Jobs' status as the creator of Apple's smartphones and the chairman of the company does not matter at all, the important thing is that he is the soul of Apple.
He created the culture of this company, the fashion trend of Apple products, that is the reason why he appeared at the press conference, and that is the fundamental reason why he has an unparalleled influence on users.
For the Imperial Electronics Company in front of him, Lee Chung-hee is equivalent to the role of Steve Jobs.
No matter who invented the technology, no matter who made the product, he is the soul of this company, and it has little to do with whether he is the boss of this company or not, and even, at this moment, it doesn't matter half a dime.
At the moment, he is the founder of the vast kingdom of wealth of the Imperial Corporation, an unparalleled genius, and the greatest figure in the history of world entertainment.
He himself represents a trend, unparalleled influence, any of his initiatives will be successful, any of his products or works will be popular, the clothes he wears, the shoes he wears, the bracelets he wears, the hats, the cars he drives, the various things he uses, etc., will form a fashion.
This qiē is the reason why he is standing here, he is about to bring smartphones to everyone like ever before, forming a fashion trend and making smartphones popular all over the world.
"Thank you for coming, today, we are not only talking about a smartphone, but a new era - the beginning of the mobile Internet era, our lives will change dramatically again, whether it is the way people communicate with each other, our respective entertainment and leisure methods, and even our working methods!"
Lee Chung-hee was a little nervous before he came, and even a little nervous when he entered the door, but after standing there, he relaxed, and it was natural.
It's about self-confidence, it's about habits, it's about what he's going to do next and what he's going to know about the future.
After the opening, he began to open the big screen behind him, and while demonstrating to everyone, he said: "Our smartphone uses a TFT touch screen with a viewing area of 3.5 inches and a resolution of 480×320, which is now the largest and most advanced technology in the world.
At the same time, we have also developed our own Android operating system for this mobile phone, which is also the original creation of our Imperial Electronics Company, in other aspects, we are equipped with a 3 million pixel camera, support Wi-Fi and Bluetooth A2DP stereo music, and can also work in GSM850/900/1800/1900MHz quad-band network .......
"Compared to ordinary mobile phones, smartphones have a lot of advantages, like I just said, it will completely change the way we live in the future and allow us to enter a new era.
To put it simply, a smartphone is a combination of a mobile phone and a computer, and it has all the features that computers have, but it is undoubtedly lighter! ”
Speaking of this, as if by magic, he suddenly took out a silver-white smartphone from his sleeve and smiled at everyone. Show it.
This is the first time that the smartphone of Imperial Electronics has been shown to everyone, and it immediately attracted the attention of all reporters, and it instantly clicked and snapped.
When they were almost done, Lee Chung-hee continued: "The computer is not easy to carry, even a notebook is very troublesome, but the mobile phone can be in any pocket, put it in your hand, hang it on your chest, and pin it on your waist, it is very fashionable and ......." ”
As he said this, various male and female models holding smartphones in pearl white, sky blue, and black immediately appeared on the catwalk next to him.
It's a gimmick for the global launch, but it's unique, like what he's always been doing, and people are interested. (To be continued......)
