Chapter 173: The End and the Future
Although Stardust 3 and Stardust 3+ have not yet been released on online channels such as Stardust Mall and Stardust official website, the new versions of the two mobile phones have been shipped in large quantities in offline direct stores, authorized stores, and dealers.
This is also Chen Zifan's act of notifying him in advance and acquiescing, after all, the new version has already been officially announced, if it weren't for giving them a good ending, it would be directly put on the shelves of the mall on the day of the official announcement.
There is nothing to say about replacing the new battery, and the employees of the Stardust after-sales center have undergone professional training, and there will be no technical problems.
Unless it is reserved and ready to sell second-hand, if you use the machine, you can replace it with a new sodium lithium battery for free, and it will not affect the normal function and waterproof of the mobile phone, and the battery life and fast charging speed have also been improved, why not do it?
There is Stardust-Tatsuji in front, the new version... Wrong! The standard version after the price reduction is the most cost-effective! Of course, Chen Zifan will not directly say the price reduction information at the press conference, the reason is very simple:
Stardust 3 and Stardust 3+ will reduce the price this year, and Stardust 4 and Stardust 4+ will increase by 1,000 yuan next year.
Moreover, even if the price is not reduced, the product power of Stardust 3 and Stardust 3+ is also there, just sell it, and there is no need to engage in similar promotional activities at all.
According to the consistent style of Stardust Technology, the two mobile phones will not be fully removed from the shelves until the Stardust 5 or even Stardust 6 series come out, and it is still very early.
It can also be seen from the reaction of the audience that everyone's recognition of the new versions of the two mobile phones is still very high, and Chen Zifan didn't say much, and set aside a period of time to play the promotional videos of the three new phones.
Starting from the second promotional video of Stardust-Chenji, the main content of this promotional video is based on "practical scenes", using concise ways and specific scenes to arouse people's interest in Stardust-Chenji.
This is also the usual routine of Stardust Technology, although old-fashioned, but very easy to use, and Stardust 3, Stardust 3+ The new version of the promotional video is also very similar, but the actual scene is relatively small, more of a display.
Many consumers also seem to realize that this is the last appearance of Stardust 3 and Stardust 3+, and after the promotional video, the applause is very long.
They also suddenly sighed:
"I'm @
, eliminated Stardust 3, and the stronger Stardust 4.
There is one thing they guessed accurately, that is, there is a high probability that Stardust 4 will not be a 3G mobile phone, after all, 3G is a transitional product and has existed for a very short time in history.
Now there is Stardust Technology [Analysis Copycat] and [Synthesis Creation] to produce more perfect 4G technology, and the official is also vigorously promoting, who still uses 3G?
Even the two low-priced brands: Meizu Blue and Redmi will pay hundreds of yuan for 4G mobile phones in two years, that is to say, next year will be a real 4G popularization storm, and 3G will soon be eliminated.
When the applause ended, the discussion in the audience gradually calmed down, and Chen Zifan continued:
"After reading our three new phones today, I don't know what you think, for me, Stardust 3, Stardust 3+... Forget it, there is no need to talk about sensationalism, we should all continue to look forward.
I believe that many people have seen our new product poster, and when a product just appeared, everyone paid very much attention to it, and it was the first e-paper book of Stardust Technology: Stardust - Ink!"
It stands to reason that the exposure time of drone stardust-marginal is earlier than that of e-paper book stardust-ink, so it should also be ranked in front of the press conference, but in terms of product popularity, stardust-ink is significantly higher.
There are a considerable number of low-level consumers who are not interested in what drones are not interested in at all, and they only like the brand and service of Stardust Technology when they buy Stardust mobile phones, and the products are comprehensive and comprehensive, which is very capable of playing.
In short, no matter what the needs are, Stardust mobile phones can meet them, but for them, mobile phone cameras are sometimes a dispensable existence.
I can't even use my phone to take pictures, so why buy a drone? Just to fly into the sky and record videos?
Although in reality drones are very versatile, that has little to do with ordinary people.
Therefore, Stardust-Marginal is only aimed at a small number of groups with strong economic ability, from a practical point of view, Stardust-Marginal is a non-rigid product, some people will question that Stardust-Ink is not just needed!
The original smartphone Stardust 1 was not just needed, but who would dare to say that the current smartphone is not just needed? The same is true for Stardust-Ink, which is not a product that is just needed, but it has a wider audience.
And there is a very important point, that is, its battery life level is too exaggerated! An e-paper book with only one day of battery life is certainly not just needed, but if there is more than thirty days of battery life... Then it's just a product!
It doesn't have to be a rigid need to become a rigid need!
As we all know, Chinese people are very capable of rolling, rolling, working, studying... To put it more simply, people need to improve to live a better life, and reading books is the easiest way to improve, although it is not necessarily useful.
But what does that matter?
Chen Zifan only needs to have a certain "relationship" with consumers, and use products to describe a bright future for them, such as the need for a tablet computer for graduate school entrance examinations, to instill a similar concept.
In fact, whether you can succeed in the graduate school entrance examination has nothing to do with whether you have a tablet computer or not, but you see, others have a tablet and watch online classes all day, and if you don't have a tablet, you can only rely on yourself to read books.
The same is true for stardust-ink, others have stardust-ink, going out is equivalent to bringing a library, what books you want to read, you can only bring a physical book when you go out, and the volume is very large.
And the operating experience is significantly worse.
So what do you choose?
Others use their leisure time to read books to improve themselves, expand their knowledge, increase their knowledge, and face many situations to be able to talk eloquently, because there is a huge reserve of knowledge, and you don't have these things when you need them!
Are you missing out on a lot of opportunities?
Maybe you missed the opportunity to make the leap from poor to rich, but will you regret it?
This is a typical way to create anxiety, and then create demand, Chen Zifan and Wang Jinli like to use this way to stimulate product sales, which is not a fair and fair means, but it is nothing~
Stardust-Ink Ink itself is a hardware and software product force
There, you won't lose money if you buy it!
Indeed, after hearing Stardust-Ink, many viewers at the scene cheered, and even many consumers who watched the Stardust press conference in front of various screens couldn't help but be a little excited.
This is Stardust Technology's e-paper book!
A monster that is rumored to have a battery life of more than a month!
And the blessing of Huaxin Bookstore!
A proper mobile library!
Coupled with Godspeed USB fast charging, what else do you buy Kindle? Isn't it bad to buy Stardust-Ink?
Before Chen Zifan could speak, they had already given themselves a strategy, and Chen Zifan himself didn't expect that he still underestimated people's desire for books.
After cheering, the lights of Xinghai Stadium were adjusted again, and at the same time, all the big screens were playing the promotional video of Stardust-Ink, which was the same as Stardust-Chenji, and it was mainly based on parameter introduction.
Of course, there are only two points that attract them the most: super long battery life and a lot of genuine e-books!
The promotional video is very simple, but the amount of information in it is very large, many people have not seen the stardust-ink poster at all, and they are not interested in e-paper books at first, but after the promotional video is played...
The perception has completely changed!
There is only one thought in their minds:
This TM is the real e-paper book!
Chen Zifan didn't care that the sound of the scene had not yet quieted down this time, and after the lights were turned on, he took a stardust-ink and began to introduce:
"What I have in my hand is a white version of Stardust-Ink, and there is a black version in front of me, which is the so-called black on white, black and white are more simple and can better reflect the theme of ink painting.
Stardust-ink is different from any of our previous products, as you can see, it comes with a stylus, a protective case, and the stylus is stored in the upper right corner of the fuselage, and you can take it at any time when you use it.
The original protective case is made of custom kraft paper material, which can provide very good protection for e-paper books while ensuring the feel.
Stardust-Ink is equipped with a 7:5 ink screen on the front, and its size ratio is almost exactly the same as the proportion of books, and the screen size is equivalent to a 32-carat, which is the size of A5 (half of A4).
Since the ink screen can't be a pure black screen, you can see that the lock screen interface of Stardust-Ink looks like this... After unlocking, its main interface icons are fixed and non-adjustable.
Here I would like to tell you about a product research and development, the screen of Stardust-Ink is a "reduced layer screen", in order to achieve the effect of the screen as white as paper, at the beginning we even removed the capacitive layer.
Other words... At the beginning, Stardust-Ink could not be controlled with fingers, but now Stardust-Ink, as you can see, I can operate it with my hand by sliding and clicking at will!
The reason is very simple: fingers are our innate and most convenient touch tools, if you borrow a stylus to use an electric paper book, then what is the difference between it and the previous obsolete button function machine?
In order to provide a better display effect, we have developed a 16-level grayscale algorithm, which can simulate the 256-level grayscale display effect, making it more delicate and vivid!
And the PPI value of this ink screen exceeds 300, reaching 326, and the display level is even better than that of real books! At the same time, its refresh rate has also broken through the limit of the original ink screen!
It's a full 45Hz refresh rate!"
45Hz looks like nothing, Stardust 1's screen is all 60Hz, you are only 45Hz... But in the field of ink screens, no one can do this refresh rate.
Even in Chen Zifan's memory, there is no product that can be used, maybe some manufacturers have this technology, but the market for ink screens is so big, and the cost is too high with such a top technology.
There's no room for profit!
But there is no such problem at all in Stardust-Ink, first of all, the number of genuine e-books that Stardust Technology can provide is far from the other
Manufacturers can compare, and secondly, the sales of Stardust-Ink are destined to be no worse.
The sales volume is high enough, and the materials are naturally fierce!
Chen Zifan is also a master of creating anxiety, and then threw out a concept related to health:
"I think the biggest advantage of the ink screen is the "eye protection", the traditional LCD screen will have blue light problems, OLED screens will have flicker problems, their high-brightness backlight and a single light-emitting pixel unit.
It's not particularly friendly to eyesight protection under long-term use, but the ink screen has no such concerns at all! As you can see, Stardust-Ink is not backlit, and is displayed entirely by the reflection of light.
Even in a low-light scene, when we turn on the backlight of Stardust-Ink, its backlight is also very soft, which means that looking at Stardust-Ink is almost the same as reading a normal physical book!"
As soon as this remark came out, countless consumers suddenly couldn't sit still, and suddenly felt that their eyes hurt a little, and people who looked at their mobile phones and computers every day were even more empty.
Damn it!
It seems that the ink screen is very necessary!
In fact, about the problem of eye protection of ink screens, compared with LCD and OLED screens, the effect must be there, but it is not necessarily how strong it is, and it doesn't take your eyes to read physical books? If you don't look at the electronic screen, you won't be short-sighted?
There are too many factors that affect vision, there are genetics, incorrect posture, etc., the screen is only a small part, but most people think that looking at the electronic screen for a minute will hurt their eyes, and reading paper books for a day is fine.
