Less than a month after its launch, Mphone3 was named Digital Product of the Year by Time magazine.

Time magazine wrote on their cover story:

"Although we are still a long way from the end of the year, we and the entire magazine are eager to present this year's Digital Product of the Year award to Matrix's new Mphone3.

Consumer electronics are changing our lives, and Time magazine has been selecting the technology product of the year in our lives since 2003, and since Matrix released the Mphone, almost all of the technology products of the year have been smartphones.

No other industry has launched technology products that have the same impact as smartphones, even the Xbox released by Microsoft, or the iPods released by Apple, their influence is limited, and smartphones have expanded the boundaries of digital products like never before.

Therefore, since 2005, we have revised the selection of technology products of the year to the best digital products of the year, because we believe that computer processors and computer accessories also have the ability to compete for this throne, for example, our digital products of the year in 2005 were awarded to the Bluetooth chip launched by Xinxin Technology.

In the past, the digital product of the year was so full of suspense that our editorial department had to receive products from top technology companies in various countries, and finally rate them to finally select this award, but this year, this award was lost early in August.

When my colleagues and I got the Mphone3, we were almost immediately attracted by this design, a longer body than the Mphone2, the best screen on the market, a unique fingerprint unlock function, an absolutely leading operating system, it is the epitome of the advantages of Matrix technology, we look back at the new phones released by other manufacturers in the first half of this year and the phones that will be released in the second half of the year, we can't think of any product that can be better than the Mphone3.

Matrix has once again entered their familiar rhythm under Newman's leadership, and every time a new device is launched, consumers think that this is what a smartphone should look like, and other manufacturers have begun to imitate the new Mphone.

So much so that there is an interesting phenomenon in the market, which manufacturer imitates the Mphone more likely, their sales will be better."

The media gave Mphone3 a high evaluation, firstly, because Matrix has maintained a long-term cooperative relationship with the media, and Matrix's annual advertising is not small; The second reason is that Mphone is indeed more than one step ahead, and it can't be blown too much.

Because Mphone has launched a total of three generations, each generation has Zhou Xin's vision from the future to check, the degree of the future Huaguo smartphone volume is comparable to hell, and the products iterated in the market of more than one billion people are underestimated in terms of dimensionality reduction.

After the launch of each generation of Mphone, it can be said to be a classic among the classics, and it is crushing compared with the competing products of friends.

The Mphone3 is no exception, even as competitors have tried to use the shooting at the launch event to undermine Matrix's brand image, but with little success.

In the future, even if Apple transferred most of its manufacturing to India, it did not prevent Apple from leading the high-end machine market.

Even if Apple squeezes toothpaste every year, in addition to the chip is better, even the narrowing of the bezel can be used to hype, compared with Apple, Mphone is too conscientious.

Zhou Xin's performance on the Puma show was also well received.

"It seems like the first time I've seen Newman, and I remember that he didn't wear a tie even when he went to the New Year's Day dinner at the White House, just a casual suit."

"I still like Newman more than the vampires of Wall Street, the lucky ones of Silicon Valley, or the old foxes of Washington, who always knows what users want."

"It seems that the shooting at this Mphone conference hit him hard, his face is ugly, and he is not at all as relaxed and confident as he was on Charlie Rose's show before."

"It's still too sudden, to be honest, Mphone is not wrong, obviously Newman's NewPay and WeChat Pay are the only two channels that have not cooperated with hedge funds, but public opinion has to put most of the blame on Newman.

That in itself doesn't make sense, as Newman said at the launch, Mphone is just a tool, and he can't decide what people do with the tool. ”

The positive image established in the past, as well as the favorability accumulated by NewPay and WeChat Pay in this round of Madoff fraud cases, made Matrix not too affected by this turmoil.

At the same time, the solidarity of a large number of celebrities on Weibo has helped Matrix establish a positive image.

Musk has long since sold it, he has taken a stake in an electric car company called Edison, and he founded SpaceX himself, and Musk has focused most of his energy on both companies.

This company was originally going to be called Tesla, but because the Tesla trademark had been registered in advance by Matrix, Faraday, Euler, Maxwell and other names were registered as trademarks in the automotive field, so they had no choice but to choose Edison.

Because the information on the patent registration can be found, Musk was a little skeptical that Matrix was planning to build a car after knowing that it was Matrix who preemptively registered these trademarks.

But it doesn't make sense, wouldn't it be best for Matrix to use their own trademark if they want to build a car? The names of these scientists in the field of electricity do not fit the brand image of Matrix.

Interestingly, before Musk invested in Edison, he asked Edison's founder why he chose this name, the founder meant that we originally planned to call it Tesla, but Tesla had already been registered.

(Musk has said in a public interview that he prefers Edison to Tesla.) ）

After Musk invested in Edison, he got actual control of Edison, and he posted on Weibo:

"The shooting at the Mphone3 press conference was not Newman's responsibility, and his insistence that NewPay did not cooperate with Bernard prevented the further expansion of the Madoff fraud, and I don't understand why people keep trying to make big news and try to blame Newman for the financial crisis."

Zhou Xin himself is very low-key and rarely appears in public, but the company under his name is too high-profile and has too much presence, so since the beginning of the new century, Zhou Xin and Bill Gates have become the common masterminds behind the Ameriken conspiracy theory.

There are all kinds of conspiracy theories of this kind, some say that Zhou Xin is a puppet of Bill Gates, some say that Bill Gates was sent by an opponent, and Zhou Xin is the counterpart and the superior of Bill Gates, in order to destroy Ameriken, the last bastion of capitalism.

After the financial crisis began in '07, these conspiracy theories became even more prevalent, and the white people who caused the shootings were in some sense also the audience for such conspiracy theories.

As for why NewPay didn't work with Madoff, the conspirators of the conspiracy theory explained that it was because Newman was still lurking, and it was not yet time to be exposed.

In short, there is a saying anyway.

After Zhou Xin saw it, he thought about whether he could have anything to do with this matter after 2020.

In fact, many popular conspiracy theories originated from the Americacan, such as Freemasonry and the Illuminati, including the Amerilican manned moon landing is fake, these conspiracy theories were concocted by the Amerikens, and then localized and improved.

This can be regarded as a certain sense of Western learning from the East.

"Newman, like me, was still an advisor when I was talking to Madoff, and I thought he had a problem, but because I was only a consultant, I had sold my shares, and I couldn't intervene in the business.

It's the same thing about Newman's inability to intervene in Baidu's operations, and I can understand him. ”

Newman went out to be interviewed again after many years, and this matter is hot, as Musk, who can't wait to stand in the spotlight and get a lot of traffic, naturally wants to talk more about Newman.

Because Musk updates Weibo very frequently and often shares what he is doing, a follower below him asked:

"Didn't you say that Sergey Brin and Larry Page would be Edison's first users, you often mention Newman, why wasn't Newman one of Edison's first users?"

Musk replied to him below: "How do you know Newman wasn't one of Edison's first users?" ”

Soon two days later, he posted another Weibo, with a photo of him and Zhou Xin on Weibo:

"It's great to have dinner with the best product managers in the world, we have an amazing agreement about the future of electric vehicles, and Newman is a genius who knows more about electric vehicles than I do in many areas."

"Newman will not only be Edison's first-wheel owner, Newman will also personally invest $20 million in Edison, which is a collaboration between geniuses, which also makes me more confident in Edison's future."

Musk and Peter Thiel are very familiar, and under Peter's group, Zhou Xin and Musk met.

Zhou Xin also knows Musk very well, and Tesla itself is also a good investment target, which can bring him thousands of times the income.

As for him to engage in cars and follow the path of Tesla, he does not have the energy, even if the car knows the future development, it needs to pay persistent efforts, and Zhou Xin cannot take care of electric vehicles and semiconductors at the same time.

Also, to be honest, he is interested in driving an electric car, but not in the industry.

When meeting with Musk, when he heard the other party's introduction to Edison's company, Zhou Xin had a feeling that he had succeeded in his prank, which was like hearing your classmate's name and playing homophonic stalks.

After a brief chat, Zhou Xin did not plan to invest in the name of emerging investment, but in his personal name.

Musk's Weibo quickly caused a stir on Wall Street, who is Newman? The richest man in the world, a top entrepreneur with great achievements in many fields, and a top investor, his emerging investment report card every year is very beautiful, absolutely first-line.

At this time, Zhou Xin invested real money in Edison in his personal name, which made Wall Street investment institutions very eager to understand where Edison was sacred.

And some institutions that know Edison and have done detailed research plan to do another survey to see what Edison's charm is, whether there are points that they have not thought of, and have not discovered the value.

Musk has a deeper understanding of Newman's power, and he just posted a photo with Newman, saying that Newman invested in Edison, and Wall Street people who had personal friends with him kept calling from the afternoon that day.

Some wanted to know more about Edison, and some even wanted to invest five million dollars directly.

You must know that it is a financial crisis, and there is a shortage of money in the market, and Newman is still so powerful at this time.

"Elon, of course, Newman has had his mistakes, like Nvidia, he lost a lot of money when he invested in Nvidia.

But Newman makes far more right decisions than bad ones, and in the case of smartphones, before Newman, these consumer electronics companies, at best, could think of crude computer applications to handheld computers.

Is the so-called transformation really transformed? It's still the operating logic of the computer, have you done any targeted optimization?

Not really. Although it is said on the Internet that without Newman, there will be smartphones, but without Newman, the development of smartphones would be at least ten years slower.

This is not an isolated case, there are many similar examples, instant messaging software, before Newman's Tencent entered the Ameriken, who would have thought that instant messaging software could have so many ways to make money?

Who would have thought that instant messaging apps on smartphones could perfectly bridge the gap between online and offline?

So I believe Newman sees an advantage in the future of electric vehicles that I can't see, and besides, it's a small point to invest five million dollars. "Citi's former executive, the current executive, called Musk and said he wanted to follow.

Musk asked: "I remember that you also bought a lot of Madoff's wealth management products?" And get five million dollars in cash? ”

"Hahaha I sold it early, I redeemed it this year, and at the beginning of this year, when HSBC made a $1.8 billion bad debt provision for the subprime mortgage business, I redeemed all the money I had with Madoff." There was a hearty laugh on the other end of the line, proud of his ingenuity.

Those who can successfully escape from the top belong to taking all the benefits and not bearing the losses.

This is like Evergrande's 10% financial management, which has eaten the 10% of the income, and its principal is still unscathed.

"And the five million dollars are a portion of the net profit from Madoff, after deducting the inflation rate, and I plan to invest it in you."

"You escaped at the beginning of this year, aren't you afraid that the federal investigation will suspect that you and Madoff have related party transactions?" Musk asked.

"What are you afraid of, if I have a related party transaction then I may still be afraid, but the problem is that I don't.

I don't have it, how about the Federation take me as a Jewish? The Jewish Protectorate is not going to let the Federation slander a rich Jew like me. ”

Musk thought to himself, Jewish money is not easy to get, how can this kind of Jewish, who has a nose as sensitive as a dog, come to vote for his Edison, what kind of magic does Newman have?

You must know that before he looked for investment, no one paid attention to it at all, even if the venture capital on Wall Street learned about it from his past entrepreneurial success history, it was only in the understanding stage.

Not even any further intentions.

Now with Newman's blessing, Jews can vote without investigation.
