Chapter 181 is amazing

Siri is just a voice assistant, and for this kind of technology that only needs to rely on code to solve, Wenming is not a little difficult to do.

Of course, because Siri involves multiple languages, and when Wen Ming launched the world's first generation of iphone, the time was much tighter, so he simply didn't have time, and he couldn't find so many people to write program response templates between different languages.

After the iPhone sold well, Wenming's Apple R&D team has begun to design interactive templates for the Siri program designed by Wenming. With the most basic program, the difficulty of filling in the language is reduced much.

Originally, Wenming planned to sacrifice Siri as a big killer when the second generation of iPhone was launched, to ensure the leading position of iPhone in the mobile phone industry. However, because of the acquisition of Tesla, even if Tesla's pure electric vehicles are made with the technology he currently masters, the performance can only reach the level of the Model-S he is now launching due to material development and cost constraints.

Compared to the few pure electric vehicles on the market, and even many gasoline vehicles, the Model-S is good enough, but it can't impress people all over the world. As the main new energy and high-tech Tesla cars, in the lack of enough powerful software settings, it is undoubtedly more difficult to seize the market with fuel vehicles.

So, the appearance of Siri is a matter of course.

When the press conference sounded with unknown questions, Wen Ming slowly stood on the edge of the stage, and on the huge projection screen on the background wall of the press conference, a measured video began to play.

"Hi everyone, I'm Jeremy Clarkson."

In the video, a fat man appears standing in front of a Tesla Model-S and introduces himself to the camera. And before his self-introduction was over, the scene was already bursting with applause and laughter.

"As you know, my profession is a host, yes, yes, it's 'TOP GEAR', a car show that drives the world crazy. However, I wasn't going to record the Crazy Car Show today, because my other two slut partners didn't come, and neither did my pro-level test driver Steig. As far as I know, it's because they're not as important as me. ”

Jeremy is the host of the BBC Crazy Car Show in the UK, which is very famous in Western countries and is known as the best car show in the world. Since its inception in 1980, it has accumulated countless viewers.

In another world, Mango Channel also bought the copyright of this show, but because the host was not selected well and the advertising color was too strong, the show became an unfinished program that stopped broadcasting when it started.

Jeremy's appearance undoubtedly surprised the audience, because although the show hosted by this person is very good, because his speech is often not his brain, it has also caused many controversial incidents.

The most important thing is that Jeremy will never say good things about car manufacturers because of advertising money, they evaluate cars sincerely, not play false.

"I just got the news that I was going to review a new car, and it wasn't when I was on our show, so I turned it down."

Jeremy sat on the front of the Model-S and said, "But when I heard that this is Tesla's new pure electric sports car, I was moved, not because I like Tesla, but because they reported some performance parameters to me, as well as some so-called intelligent driving configurations." ”

"That's why I'm here, and I'm here to tell them not to lie to me easily in the future. Because, I will bring my videographer to record the test drive, and I will post the results on my personal social networking sites. ”

"Provided, of course, that they really lied to me. If they hadn't lied to me, I would have had to endure the pain of keeping a secret for a long time after recording this video. ”

After the opening remarks, many viewers at the press conference sweated for Wen Ming, because any car brand's new car launch conference will not choose Jeremy to test the car, this person will really say the shortcomings of your new car mercilessly.

Why not find a normal test driver?

Isn't spending some money and only saying good things about your new car and ignoring the shortcomings of your new car that a car reviewer should do?

Of course, Wen Ming knew that it would be better to pay for a more suitable evaluator, but he was very satisfied with all aspects of Model-S. It can be said that the Model-S, which has added Siri and certain functions, has completely surpassed this era.

Jeremy began to evaluate the exterior of the Model-S, which was more detailed than the Model-S exterior and interior videos at the previous press conference, and at the same time, it also allowed more viewers to carefully appreciate every detail of the Model-S's design.

"In addition to being beautiful, all I can say is that this car is full of technology."

Jeremy sat in the driver's seat and fastened his seatbelt.

"Yes, I want to describe this car as technological, because it gives me a sense of being in the future. Before, I really didn't think that I could drive a car with a full LCD instrument cluster so quickly, nor did I think that I could have such a large central control screen. ”

Jeremy started the car and said, "But I don't really like this screen, because the touch screen really doesn't have the control of physical buttons, like the iPhone and iPad, and I haven't gotten used to these two products yet." Wait, it seems that the developers of these two products are also the developers of this car? ”

There was a chuckle and then Jeremy was heard saying, "The car has started, so I'm going to test some of the 'new features' they told me." For example: Siri, help me turn on the air conditioner. ”

Before Jeremy's voice fell, the camera was already aligned with the cameraman's central control, so all the audience saw the control interface with the air conditioner turned on on the 17-inch large screen.

At the same time, Jeremy placed his arm on the air conditioning vent, and his sleeves began to wiggle slightly.

"Oh God, it's really open. Can you believe it? I just said Siri and helped me turn on the air conditioner. ”

Just as Jeremy finished speaking, an electronic female voice sounded in the Model-S car: "I'm sorry, your air conditioner has been turned on, please confirm the command again." ”

Jeremy shrugged his shoulders awkwardly at the camera, then said, "Siri, I want to know what the temperature is now?" And what temperature should the air conditioner be set to? ”

The electronic female voice replied: "The temperature outside the car is 26 degrees, and the problem inside the car is 24 degrees, so I suggest that you control the temperature of the air conditioner at about 1 degree." ”

Jeremy said, "Okay, keep the temperature of the air conditioner at degrees. ”

But after this command, the temperature of the air conditioner displayed on the large central control screen has not changed in any way, and there is no response to the instructions.

Many people at the press conference craned their necks and prepared to start watching Jeremy's performance of scolding Tesla Model-S.

Something went wrong at such a time? Isn't that scolding?

However, this video was recorded in advance, so if something really went wrong, why play it out again? Could it be that it was because of Jeremy's request that if Tesla didn't play this video, he would play this video through other channels to slap Tesla in the face?

At the same time, a sense of sympathy rose in the hearts of many viewers: poor Tesla, lifting a stone to shoot himself in the foot.

………… Out of context............

However, Jeremy didn't scold, but said apologetically to the camera: "I'm sorry, I forgot to add the word Siri before I speak, which is the password to make it respond to your commands, just like Alibaba sesame to open the door." Of course, this word can also be changed by yourself, and you can replace Siri with another password. ”

"Siri, can I change your name?"

The electronic female voice sounded again: "Yes, please enter the initial password on the central control screen to change it." ”

Jeremy laughed and said, "Don't change it for now, I hate touch screens." So, Siri, please help me set the temperature of the air conditioner to degrees. ”

The electronic female voice responded, "The setup has been completed. ”

At the same time, the temperature display of the air conditioner on the central control screen in the lens has also changed accordingly.

This scene amazed all the audience, and this kind of amazement was also what Wen Ming was looking forward to.
