Chapter 735: The Madness of 100 Million in 1 Minute

Catherine couldn't believe her eyes. She had been a reporter for so many years and attended hundreds of product launches in Silicon Valley, but it was the first time she was surprised by the same product so frequently!

When Jiang Chen on the stage rolled up his phone into a watch and put it on his wrist, a ray of light appeared on his palm.

Everyone held their breath.

Hologram!

No, it's not just as simple as a hologram! She watched with her own eyes Jiang Chen pointing his fingers on the full image, and operating the phone by touching the holographic screen. The screen suspended in the air is like a physical existence, and the transparent operation interface is simple yet beautiful.

Holographic interactive technology! And it is a holographic interaction that is completely separated from the physical interface!

She didn't know what words to use to describe the shock in her heart at the moment. She took a peek at the notes of her colleague, and saw that the chief reporter of the Observer newspaper next door, with the tip of the pen between her fingers trembling, took a long time to write down a word.

Incredible.

That's right... perhaps only the word incredible can explain the shock in the hearts of the audience.

Because what she saw was so shocking, Catherine's jaw could not be closed for the rest of the press conference.

Fully charged, it can stand by for 24 hours. It adopts the deep blue m1 processor chip designed by Future Heavy Industries, and its performance is twice that of mobile phones of the same price on the market.

Because the mobile phone itself is already thinner than the USB interface, Future Heavy Industries specially designed a wireless charger to charge the mobile phone. In addition, Future will completely abandon the design of wired earphones, and directly configure the original earphones as Bluetooth earphones, which can be switched between loudspeaker and earphone mode with one key through the switch on the earphone or mobile phone.

Abandoning the original sim card design, the future mobile phone uses a concept similar to the virtual death card proposed by Apple and Samsung as early as 15 years ago. However, due to the impact on the business of operators, this function is temporarily unavailable in some countries. Instead, Futureman Technology added a SIM card scanning function to the mobile phone.

In addition to these sky-defying functions, Future will also launch different styles such as space gray, snowflake silver, rose gold, gay purple, etc., to provide the most honorable service for distinguished users...

Well, actually the different styles make no difference at all. Graphene is transparent, and the only difference between these different styles is the fluorescent material doped in it, that is, the color of the screen frame and standby clock...and the selling price.

Among them, the basic colors such as orange and blue are the cheapest, and the direct selling price is 950 US dollars before tax, while the price of local gold is as high as 1100 US dollars, which is a full 150 US dollars higher!

By the way, these money tricks are all learned from Apple.

Jiang Chen, the nominal chief designer, couldn't figure out the difference between pale pink and rose gold. However, the live broadcast on the official website has exploded. According to Jane's data analysis and statistics, 70% of users have a strong desire to consume rose gold.

"future, let us meet the future together!"

Following Jiang Chen's double-entendre closing remarks, the introduction part of this product conference came to an end. The reporters stepped forward one after another, aiming their guns, cannons and microphones at Jiang Chen.

"Mr. Jiang, does Future position itself as a high-end machine? I would like to ask if your designer has also considered that the price of US$950 is for most middle-income people, especially consumers in developing countries. , I'm afraid it's unacceptable."

"Future is positioned as a high-tech product, and we don't want to label it as a low-end or high-end machine. Buying an 8 for $950 may make your heart hurt, but I guarantee that after buying Future, you will only feel that you have more than what you get. It's worth it," Jiang Chen said.

The eyes of the reporter at the scene lit up, and the ballpoint pen scribbled down a few strokes in the notebook.

[Jiang Chen, chairman of the future group, mocked the price of the iPhone 8 for being too expensive at the press conference, which doesn't match up with the poor functions at all]

Tearing and gossip are always more attractive than the product itself, Jiang Chen didn't care about his exaggerated facts.

After all, it's also a hype.

"Mr. Jiang, when will Future go on sale?"

"Mr. Jiang, there are rumors on the Internet that you and Emma Watson..."

"..."

The two-hour questioning session passed quickly, but the enthusiasm of the reporters in the venue did not diminish at all. When Jiang Chen walked out from the reporter's siege, his body, which had been injected with genetic medicine, felt a bit too much.

Pushing open the door and walking into the backstage preparation room, Jiang Chen sat down on the chair and let out a deep breath. Xia Shiyu walked over with a glass of water, Jiang Chen took the water and drank it clean in one gulp.

"I'm really exhausted, and I don't know where those reporters have so many questions."

Although he was complaining, Jiang Chen had a smile on his lips.

The popularity of the future product launch has reflected the market's expectations for this product to some extent. It is foreseeable that on the day of future's release, it is inevitable that the stock will be out of stock.

"Did you know? The peak number of viewers of the live broadcast just now exceeded one billion." Standing beside her with her arms folded, Xia Shiyu smiled.

billion? !

After hearing this number, Jiang Chen couldn't help but secretly startled. Even though he was full of confidence in the popularity of the future, he was still taken aback by this number. One billion online users watch it, and fortunately the server of the official website is a quantum computer, if not for this terrifying traffic, the official website of Future Technology will be blown up.

"According to the online user ip, we drew a lottery to determine the list of 200 lucky users, and now the prizes have been distributed according to the address they filled in. In addition, the sales link on the official website was opened ten minutes ago, and the 200,000 stocks were sold within one minute. Sold out."

Based on the current production efficiency in Singapore-Malaysia, the average profit of a future mobile phone is US$600, and all 200,000 mobile phones are sold. In other words, in just one minute, the Future Group made 120 million US dollars.

This shit is too scary.

The Federal Reserve's money printing machine is not at this speed!

"Let Future Heavy Industry adjust its production capacity, increase the monthly output to 4 million pieces within two months, and increase it to 9 million pieces by the end of this year!"

"I have ordered people to do it." Xia Shiyu nodded, pushed the glasses on the bridge of her nose, and continued, "In addition, five companies including Samsung and Foxconn submitted letters of intent to us, expressing their willingness to cooperate with us on future mobile phone OEM agreements. Negotiate and help us expand our capacity."

"What is their proposal?"

"They are willing to do OEM for 13 items of equipment including our dark blue m1 chip, graphene screen, mobile phone battery, etc. It is estimated that they can save the cost of 79 US dollars. And they will be able to increase our production capacity to 500 per month in a short period of time. Ten thousand pieces." Xia Shiyu said.

Jiang Chen pondered for half a minute, tapped his index finger on the table, and then spoke.

"Future People Group has no idea of ​​manufacturing for the time being, so you can reply to them like this."

"Okay, I'll edit the email later." Xia Shiyu nodded.

As for outsourcing, Xia Shiyu also held objections, but she still had to consult the chairman, Jiang Chen, about such matters.

In order to build a complete set of electronics industry production lines in the Singapore-Malaysia Special Zone, Future Heavy Industry has invested 2 billion US dollars in it. Although the foundry can reduce the product cost to the minimum in a short period of time through mass production, and increase the output of mobile phones. But the side effect of this is also obvious, that is, it leads to the outflow of technology.

Although the legal team of Futureman Group has registered patents in various countries for 21 components including the deep blue m1 chip, Futureman Heavy Industry's production process for these electronic devices is still at the level of commercial secrets.

If it is made public, it means that foundry companies will also have these production technologies. Enterprises that do not have their own products are better off. To Samsung, a large enterprise that not only makes OEMs, but also makes its own mobile phones, can use the technology it acquires to develop its own graphene mobile phones. Pay Jiang Chen a patent fee.

For Future Group, this is undoubtedly not worth the candle.

Patent barriers and technical barriers, under the protection of the two fortresses, Future Group can maintain the hegemony of market monopoly to the greatest extent! (To be continued.)
