Chapter 178: Backup Plan
But...
"What kind of texture do you want for a drone?"
Can you fly, can you shoot?
Many people don't understand Stardust Technology's fanatical pursuit of texture, and think that instead of spending a lot of money to improve the texture of products, it is better to be practical:
For example, with a relatively low-cost manufacturing process and materials, and then reduce the selling price, not to mention anything else, if the newly released e-paper book Stardust-Ink can be cheaper by 500 yuan, the sales will definitely be higher!
But what they don't know is that that will greatly reduce the reputation of the product, and the price will be cheap, but as long as the product has a small defect, it will be labeled as "cheap" and "domestic garbage".
Very simply, the red rice in Chen Zifan's memory has been synonymous with "cost performance" for a long time, and the cost performance of the product is high enough, but the lack of plastic frames, brackets, etc.
But the question is that if you don't save costs, how can the price come down? I want to pursue performance, I want to pursue the level of photography, and I want to pursue the texture of the fuselage, there is indeed such a comprehensive product, but the price is also very high!
Chen Zifan would rather set the positioning of the product at a high point, rather than make the product worse in order to increase sales so little, which is also a kind of pursuit of him.
The pursuit of products and making money do not conflict.
So after he landed on the stardust-margin, he first emphasized the fuselage material and texture, of course, it is not enough to have a texture, but also to have a sufficient safety factor, after all, it is a drone~
Chen Zifan continued:
"Stardust-Margin's excellent body texture will bring us a better user experience! No one wants to buy a product that is a pile of loose plastic, and no one wants it to break down in a few days.
In addition to the excellent texture, Stardust-Marginal also implements the tradition of "leaving no room for error" in the configuration of Stardust Technology, first of all, the battery, the battery of Stardust New Energy is needless to say, but it has a feature:
That is, its battery pack is removable, that is, when we operate the drone outdoors, we can carry another battery with the bag to ensure a longer battery life, and it is also very simple to replace.
As you can see, there is a circular button directly below the drone, which is marked with a battery mark, and you only need to press it twice in a row, and the battery compartment below will open, and you can replace the new battery with it.
In terms of charging...
Many people may think that Stardust-Marginal Fast Charging also uses the 30 fast charging of Godspeed USB, but it is not, although it also has a Godspeed USB interface, but it charges much faster!"
After all, the size of the fuselage is here, there is no size limit, and the charging power is naturally faster.
Also equipped with a lithium sodium battery, the average power of Stardust-Margin can easily exceed 45 during the actual charging process, the maximum power is 50, and the maximum power of 50 can be maintained at more than 80% of the time.
This kind of data is already very good.
As soon as Chen Zifan put the introduction on the big screen, the audience burst into cheers.
It made him a little confused.
No, it's a drone! What do you do with fast charging? But the audience's idea is different:
"Stardust Technology can use 50 fast charging for drones today, and it can use it for mobile phones tomorrow!"
"In other words, the Stardust 4 series is guaranteed to start with 50 fast charging! Charge faster!"
"30 is so good, if you put 50 on your phone, can it be fully charged in half an hour? Then what kind of battery life am I worried about?"
"Why didn't you take out this technology sooner! Why don't you use it for Stardust-Chenji as well? Oh, it turns out that the fuselage is too small to force it..."
"But with such a large amount of charging power, can the battery stand it? Will it heat up or something?"
"Just believe in Stardust Technology, they use lithium sodium batteries! One of the advantages of a sodium-filled battery is that it is safe enough, and although the previous battery was also safe, it is certainly not possible to use such a large power!"
"I think so too..."
It's totally overthinking, even stardust
New energy is the development strategy of a single cell, and the charging power can also be forcibly increased to more than 100 by virtue of various advanced technologies in [Stardust Technology].
What they don't know is that in fact, Chen Zifan's 50 fast charging used on Stardust-Margin is not the final full-blood version, it belongs to the advanced version of the technology, and the real 50 fast charging is to be applied to mobile phones.
And it is also a real full-blood version, within 30 seconds of connecting to the charger, the power can be directly increased to the maximum power of 50, and it is maintained until the final trickle charging time, which is also about 30 seconds.
Within Stardust Technology, 50 fast charging is one of the backup schemes, it stands to reason that the Stardust 4 series will only be updated in two years, and it must be a different, breaking the conventional cognition of the technology.
This technology is air (wireless) charging, and its development progress is also very fast, it is initially estimated that the final test will be completed in early August, and it will enter the actual mass production stage, but the reality is:
The phase control array used by Stardust Technology is too advanced, the interest chain involved is very large, and there is no large amount of experimental data to support it in terms of safety for the time being, so it is too difficult to use it as a mass production product.
And it is very likely that the initial mobile phone market will become chaotic again, in short, the current smartphone market is still in a state of development, and smartphones have not yet been fully popularized.
The 4G base station is also still under construction overtime, and Stardust Technology will release this advanced technology that is enough to change the times, which will only be more difficult to control.
Therefore, Chen Zifan also made N backup plans in advance, and the most recognized by the top management is the conventional development strategy of 50 fast charging, Stardust 4, Stardust 4+ continue to roll fast charging and basic configuration, and release the technology of air charging as a "concept technology".
Of course, this is not the kind of technology that can only see no products, Stardust Technology will also use the technology of air charging on mass production models, but it will not be used on Stardust 4 and Stardust 4+, but will open a special model separately, just like Stardust-Chenji.
The price will also be raised to a new height, in short, it is a sentence: air charging can be mass-produced, and it can also be sold next year, but it cannot be a cheap model for the time being, and it will have to be observed and observed.
However, even if the Stardust 4 series products come out, it will not affect the Stardust-Margin, and Stardust-Ink is different, the replacement of Stardust-Margin will be very fast, and it can basically be maintained for about one more a year.
And it will also expand the product line and derive some more professional and commercial drone products.
There is a large battery + fast charging, as well as a quick-release battery design, and the battery can be replaced at any time, so what about the endurance of Stardust-Margin?
Chen Zifan released a PPT and said: "Stardust-Marginal can take aerial photography for about 90 minutes in all-weather mode, as well as in 1080p and 60 frames mode, and the battery life is very good!"
I just watched the endurance of Stardust-Ink for nearly a month, and then looked at the Stardust-Marginal endurance of only two hours, and countless viewers were stunned:
"What's that?"
"90 minutes? Not 90 days?"
"That's too short, isn't it?"
"Is 90 minutes a good idea?"
"Big brothers! It's a drone! Flying and shooting, and transmitting the picture in real time, it can last more than an hour, which is already very good!"
"Is that so?"
"I didn't have much interest in it for a while..."
In Chen Zifan's impression, the average drone product has a battery life of about an hour, but there are several products with good battery life, but the price is very high, and it is not something that ordinary people can afford.
As an entry-level drone product, Stardust-Marginal can fly for 90 minutes.
It's not enough to just look at the battery life, but also to see what you can do! Chen Zifan didn't care about some of the boos and discussions at the scene, but continued: "Then what if I say that it flies at an altitude of more than 150 meters?"
What is the concept of 150 meters?
According to the calculation of 3 meters on one floor, 150 meters can not be obtained
is 50 stories high, thinking about it like this, many viewers suddenly stopped talking, and Chen Zifan added:
"It has a flight radius of 5 kilometers and a maximum flight speed of 30 meters per second, provided that the weather is good, and if there is strong wind or heavy rain, it is recommended to fly at a relatively stable speed.
With such a large flight radius and real-time video transmission, it is enough for us to have a simple and exciting adventure outdoors, and we don't need to go there in person, which ensures personal safety to the greatest extent..."
Chen Zifan said while remotely controlling Stardust-Marginal Take-off again, flying all the way to a limit altitude of 150 meters, looking down from above, Xinghai Stadium, Stardust Square, and Stardust Factory are all in full view.
Coupled with the Stardust Technology Headquarters, Stardust Express Headquarters, and Xinghan Automobile Factory, the entire Stardust Technology site looks well-organized and unconventional!
When parked at a certain height, the camera can also carry out a certain degree of activity, and with the rotation of the fuselage, the image impact is still very strong.
Chen Zifan briefly showed it, and then demonstrated the fastest flight speed of a wave of stardust-margin, and the first-person experience was like a roller coaster, which made many people exclaim in surprise and began to shout:
"! I'm dizzy in 3D!"
"Slow down! I'm scared! If it hits a bird, the drone must not be scrapped on the spot!"
"It's so exciting to watch!"
"It depends on the final price!"
Before announcing the price, Chen Zifan also specifically mentioned the outer packaging of Stardust-Margin:
"We also have a special storage box for Stardust-Margin, which can not only hold Stardust-Margin's body, but also control controllers, spare batteries, memory cards and other accessories."
Of course, these accessories need to be bought with extra money, and there are many models of storage boxes, and there are more things that can be placed.
Anyway, the mobile phone can also be controlled, and the control experience is not bad, so you don't necessarily have to use a controller.
The accessories of the Stardust mobile phone are relatively expensive, but the accessories of the Stardust-Marginal are sold at the normal price.
The original box is gifted, accessories need to be purchased additionally, if you want to add accessories, you can buy them, and if you don't want to add accessories, you don't have to spend this money, a drone with a mobile phone, and then with a special APP is enough.
The video can also be imported directly into the mobile phone, and the simplest editing can be done with the built-in function of the album, which is still very convenient.
Regarding Stardust-Margin, there are actually many functions that have not been introduced or displayed, including the safe landing and auxiliary operations that have been done before, Chen Zifan directly summarized them with a promotional video.
Because these things are too cumbersome to demonstrate, even if they are demonstrated, they lack shocking effects, and the Stardust Factory has a special test video, which can be put on the official website and product introduction for consumers to see.
After the closing promotional video of Stardust-Marginal was played, Chen Zifan directly announced the price:
"Stardust-Margin's final selling price is-
2,699 yuan!"
This price is the same as the starting price of Stardust-Ink, the difference is that Stardust-Marginal does not have a memory version, but a random 32GB SD card, which can be used to store photos and videos.
It can also be transmitted directly to the mobile phone through real-time data, which is more convenient.
However, due to various reasons, the wired transmission between Stardust mobile phones and computers is very poor, and you can only download a data transmission software produced by Stardust Network on the computer, or use Bluetooth to transmit data.
But none of this is a big deal.
Chen Zifan also hopes that those big factories will reduce their restrictions on Stardust Technology, otherwise when he frees up his time, the consequences will not be something they can bear, and they have to let Stardust Technology also enter the computer market?
He does have plans to enter the field of graphics cards, but this project will take about three years.
When the production line level of Changhe chip engineering is a little higher, you can try to make a graphics card.
Stardust - marginal 269
The price of 9 is basically in line with the audience's expectations, this price cannot be said to be expensive, nor can it be said to be cheap, after all, there is no product of the same type on the market as a reference, and Stardust Technology is the only standard.
As for whether it can be sold...
With the current influence of Stardust Technology, it is still no problem to sell some drones, and even if there is really left, it can be modified and the drone inventory can be cleared out by bundling sales.
For example, some installation services are launched on Xinghan Zhixing's car, and you can add a few thousand yuan to make your car "bring" with a drone, and you can also remotely control it through the car machine system to explore the road or something.
This is also a way to ship.
Chen Zifan continued on the stage:
"Stardust-Marginal will also be on the Stardust official website, Stardust Mall and other online shopping platforms at 0:00 on June 11, and you can also go to the local Stardust store to pre-order, and the arrival time is faster..."
Stardust Technology's stores and after-sales centers can be easily queried on mobile phones and official websites, including authorized stores, but Stardust authorized stores will be relatively less formal than Stardust direct stores.
However, it is still more reliable than mobile phone dealers, so in some small cities where there are no Stardust direct stores, people are more inclined to go to authorized stores to buy.
The delivery is from the nearest Stardust Express warehouse, and it can be delivered in a day.
