I am the only one who practices magic: I practice magic in the city

Chapter 501 Press Conference (Three, five hundred chapters already)

"2999, the price is really not more than . Is this the cheapest large-screen flagship on the market? Vicent, you guessed it right."

The little fat boy next to Song Runwen looked at the screen in amazement, then turned around and said to Song Runwen excitedly.

Song Runwen glanced at Luke across from him and snorted complacently.

"This is not a guess. It is an analysis and judgment based on industry information with keen insight. Huh? Tony Leung is out so early? The movie The Ferryman with him and Wang Jiawei is about to be released, right? Aaron, do you want to go and see it?"

The little fat man nodded: "I must watch the movies of Wang Jiawei and Liang Chaowei, but I don't understand why he accepted the endorsement of rice. The brand tone seems a bit."

"Is it profitable? Not a problem. Da Mi is willing to pay, so why not take it?"

Song Runwen looked at Liang Chaowei who was forcing a smile on the screen and said, "It's obvious that Wei Zai doesn't want to be the spokesperson for rice. Not only is his face stiff from smiling, but there's no spirit in his eyes."

The fat boy Aaron agreed: "I think so too. Tony's eyes used to be so affectionate."

Song Runwen clicked his tongue at the fat boy next to him: "Do you think my eyes are affectionate?"

The little fat boy smiled shyly and gave Song Runwen a look that said "We're still in the company, so be careful."

Luke on the opposite side caught the look in their eyes and shuddered.

They both have short hair, round faces, black-framed glasses, and they both like Liang Chaowei...

Holy crap, crap, crap!

A chill ran through Luke's body.

No wonder I always feel out of place in this office. It turns out I’m just a third wheel!
"Standing next to Liang Chaowei, I also become more handsome."

Lei Jun on the screen told a cold joke, and Luke covered his face with his hands.

It's so embarrassing.

Even through the live broadcast, one could hear a few boos coming from the audience below.

There's no way. Anyone with a little experience in public speaking can understand that the place is too cold and everything Lei Jun says sounds like fake humor.

Even though there were many Rice employees trying their best to liven up the atmosphere, the atmosphere in the venue did not improve at all.

Seeing this, even Luke, who has always been a half-Mi fan, has to admit that there is a high probability that Mi’s press conference will fail.

No wonder they cancelled the Mi 5S launch event last month.

The only thing that was a little strange was that Lei Jun didn't seem nervous? Or anxious? Instead, he seemed to be smiling with a hint of... evil humor?

"Okay, thank you Mr. Liang Chaowei, let's give him a round of applause."

The process went very quickly. Liang Chaowei just came on stage and said a few polite words, then waved his Note2 at the audience. In less than five minutes, Lei Jun sent him off the stage with a smile on his face and he sat in the first row of seats.

Song Runwen was watching the live broadcast while checking "The Story of Minglan" and Weibo.

Regarding the comments on Mi's press conference, Mi fans basically expressed disappointment, while Mi haters were sarcastic.

Of course, there are also some rice water army who are exaggerating, but everyone can see that they are paid.

"Is this the black technology mentioned in the trailer for "Da Mi"? In addition to AI photo one-click optimization and intelligent image modification, what else is there? Xiao Ai Classmate Pro? Who doesn't know that thing is just connected to a large orange model 1.99?"

“The overall performance is even worse than the S7edge released by Samsung a year ago!”

"Without innovation, rice is about to become another hammer."

"Don't insult Hammer above, Bullet Messenger is still quite useful."

"Are you stupid? Even if Lei Jun is a jerk, he is not someone that a troll like Luo Taijun can mess with!"

"To Mr. Lei - A pig on the wind can fly, but a pig without wings will fall down sooner or later."

"Written before the end of the year 3062, the sixth anniversary of rice."

"Before the demise of Xiaomi, let's recall the classic Xiaomi models that brought us surprises and expectations."

Less than half an hour after the press conference started, Zhifou and Weibo were already filled with self-media articles and videos about the rice press conference.

Song Runwen thought for a moment, his fingers tapping quickly on the keyboard, and he took a screenshot of a video of Lei Jun saying "I have become handsome too", and posted it on Weibo and Bilibili.

The post reads: "That's it? A lot of noise but little action. The performance of the Note 2 is even worse than I thought. Apart from using the Snapdragon 821 and being cheap, what other features does the Note have? Nothing new at all."

"P.S. Here's a little serious analysis: Judging from the current parameters of the Note2, Samsung has not lifted its supply restrictions on Xiaomi, and the fact that it did not continue to use the Note1's 3D curved screen is the best proof of this."

"Therefore, those who speculate that domestic rice suppliers have broken through the three-sang technology blockade can put to rest."

"In the foreseeable future, domestically produced Oled replacements are still impossible. Respect!"

Song Runwen read what he had written with satisfaction, and sent it out with a whoosh. He switched back to the live broadcast of the press conference, but saw that Lei Jun was still saying something on the stage, while the big screen behind him turned into a screen full of yellow sand.

What is this for?
Are there any more shows later?

Song Runwen frowned slightly and adjusted his sitting position.

No one noticed that in the corner of the stage, there was a table one meter square and one meter and three meters high.

"Everyone knows that Da Mi entered this industry six years ago."

Lei Jun, wearing a FANCL shirt and earphones, spoke sincerely as he spoke eloquently on the stage.

"Why do we want to make mobile phones? Because we think we can do it well and bring some changes and progress to this industry."

"I still remember the shock I felt when Steve Jobs presented me with an iPhone at the Moscone Center on June 6, nine years ago."

The audience seemed to sense some changes in the atmosphere and gradually quieted down, all looking at Lei Jun in the field.

"Therefore, before we started Dami, I agreed with several of our partners that Dami's technical mission is to continuously explore the boundaries of technology and provide users with more 'black technologies'."

"The Note 2 just released is the culmination of Xiaomi's technology over the past six years."

"Whether it's the newly updated MIUI8AI stable version, the most stringent permission granting mechanism in history, one-click security, or the /2.0 aperture, 2256 million pixel rear camera, or the industry's first Snapdragon 821, and the anti-drop glass back cover..."

"Note2 is our business flagship, representing stability, reliability, peace of mind, durability and efficiency."

Lei Jun paused and looked at the audience.

"If we stop at Note2, our technological ideals will just remain on the PowerPoint slides, far from being 'realistic'."

"But everyone knows that we are a group of technology geeks, and our passion for technology is our lifelong pursuit."

"At the beginning of the year, when all the executives of our company were sitting together eating hot pot, Hong Feng suddenly raised a topic: How far have we accumulated technology? If we don't care about cost and mass production now, what will be the best product we can make?"

Lei Jun looked sad, and looked at all the audience and cameras with sharp eyes.

"At that moment, everyone at the table was silent... Then, we started to do something that even we ourselves could not believe."

???

Something that even they themselves don’t dare to believe?
what's up?

This is to liven things up!

Song Runwen couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in his heart.

Shit, won’t I get slapped in the face for the post I just posted? Should I delete it?

Song Runwen glanced at Weibo and saw that there were already more than a dozen comments and reposts.

Let’s wait and see, maybe Da Mi is just bragging?

Whether it was the audience in the venue or the netizens watching the live broadcast of the press conference, they all involuntarily turned their attention back to Lei Jun. Lei Jun walked to the table on the sidelines that no one had paid attention to, and placed his hand on the table.

At the same time, Lei Jun's hands also appeared on the yellow sand on the big screen.

Only then did everyone in the venue realize that the table was actually a container full of sand.

What is Lei Jun doing?
Sand painting?
Does he still have this skill?
No, even if he can draw sand paintings, what does it have to do with exploring the boundaries of technology?
“We are exploring the boundaries of technology, and in fact, the boundaries between virtual and reality.”

“And the screen is the window between virtuality and reality.”

“The bigger the window, the more we can see.”

"Since the iPhone was born nine years ago, screens have gotten bigger and bigger, from 3.7 ounces to 4.3, then to 4.7. Now our Note2 is 5.7 ounces, which is hard to hold in one hand."

"The entire industry, including us, is trying to make the screen bigger and bigger, and even some products have been born that are not sure whether they should be classified as tablets or mobile phones."

“The screen itself is large, and with virtual or physical buttons, the size becomes even larger. But such a product has essentially lost its ease of use.”

“So, our solution is…”

Lei Jun's palm drew grooves on the sand surface, and the sand rolled, obviously it was real sand.

and many more.

wrong!

Many audience members at the scene have already noticed the clues.

There is a cell phone in the sand!
A mobile phone with the screen lit up and Shamian displayed on the screen!

"Our solution is - full screen!"

Lei Jun clenched his right hand with five fingers and lifted a mobile phone with a lit screen from the surface of the sand table!
The scene was still silent, and Lei Jun couldn't help but frown.

What's going on? Isn't this shocking?
I spent a long time designing this part, and I am fully confident that it can rival the classic scene where Steve Jobs pulled out a MacBook Air from a briefcase!
Did you go too far in trying to praise someone by first criticizing them, and ended up completely ruining the scene?

Lei Jun held up the phone and shook it twice in front of the camera.

After a full second or two, the rice employees at the scene came to their senses and began to lead the applause. Then, everyone seemed to wake up from a dream.

Thunderous applause and cheers rang out in the Sinho University gymnasium.
-
Sitting backstage, amid the applause, cheers, and Lei Jun's constant thanks, Da Mimi squinted her eyes, stood in front of the mirror in the dressing area, and quietly felt the tingling sensation in her body as if it were an electric shock.

It seemed as if every cell in my body was cheering.

And the self in the mirror seems to have something more than before.

Vitality is vitality.

Da Mimi could clearly feel that she was completely different from what she was just now, and it seemed that the whole world had become more vivid and clear in her senses.

She could hear the whispers of the Three Meter Rice employees behind her, and could feel the air waves caused by the sound waves from the speakers brushing against her body.

Even in a dim backstage, you can clearly see very subtle details in the dark more than ten meters away.

The whole body feels extremely relaxed.

How is this going?

“You’re getting started.”

A familiar voice came from behind. Da Mimi turned around suddenly and saw that Fang Yu appeared behind her at some point.

He also didn't expect that among these women, Da Mimi would be the first to break through to the extraordinary level.

There are many women who have gone through the process of refining their essence into energy, but only a few have reached the peak of the apprentice realm. Da Mimi was also a little short of that originally, but unexpectedly, she was the first to officially step into the level 1 extraordinary realm.

Although she does not know arcane arts and does not know how to cast spells, the essence of her life has indeed officially entered the first level of the extraordinary.

Maybe I was a little too aggressive in refining my essence into energy yesterday?

Well, that's a little bit related, but the main reason is probably anger.

Just now, Liang Chaowei's assistant scolded Da Mimi so much that she got so angry that she actually made a breakthrough?

You broke through without Xiaolin dying? I can tell from the first glance that you are not the protagonist.

"My dear disciple, you have already entered the stage of 'refining essence into qi'."

Fang Yu touched Da Mimi's head with a look of relief.

Damimi:? ? ?

Refining "essence" into qi? Do I have that thing?
You don’t have it, but I do. Doesn’t it count even though your teacher has given you so much?

Forget it this year, but remember to come and pay your writing fee to me on Teacher's Day next year.

"You really do have two days off a week!" Da Mimi's eyes lit up. "What's going on?"

Fang Yu shrugged: "Just take the benefits if they're given to you. Don't ask so many questions. It's hard to explain in just a few words."

Da Mimi bit her lip and was about to act coquettishly when she heard the voice of the live director coming from the earphone.

"Teacher Yang Mi, Teacher Yang Mi, get ready for the show, reply received."

Da Mimi quickly adjusted her earphones: "Got it."
-
"Boom!"

Luke excitedly slammed the table, and the sound scared the fat boy Aaron and Song Runwen. Song Runwen glared at Luke with dissatisfaction and frowned.

Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!
It’s really a full screen!
No wonder no one noticed it just now. The screen almost blends in with the color of the sand. It doesn't have the conspicuous black borders or Home button of traditional mobile phones. It doesn't look like a mobile phone at all.

This pool of sand on the big screen has been there for at least ten minutes, but no one noticed that there was a mobile phone lying flat in it!
Damn it!

It's so arrogant!

Almost all major manufacturers believe that the "full screen" will take at least 3-5 years to achieve. Even Apple says that the full screen is currently unattainable. Rice has made it! ?

Big news!
Anyone who is a 3C enthusiast knows that if you want to achieve a full-screen display, the prerequisite is to achieve flexible Oled. Now only Samsung can produce it in the world. Does that mean Samsung has resumed its supply to Xiaomi?

OLEDs are divided into rigid and flexible types. Currently, only Samsung can mass-produce flexible OLEDs.

Other manufacturers basically do not have the capacity for mass production.

Even if Sansang resumes the supply of rice, full-screen phones are almost impossible to achieve!

Otherwise, why doesn't Sansang have a full-screen mobile phone?

Because the current technology is not available.

The IP7, which Apple just released last month, only changed the physical home button into a touch sensor + micro motor, and the phone screen still has a large "chin" and "forehead".

This chin includes the fingerprint recognition module, screen packaging module, speaker and microphone...

There are even more things packaged inside the forehead, especially the front camera and various sensors, which are all packaged in the "forehead".

Oh, if you look closely, there seems to be a rounded rectangular black hole about five or six millimeters wide and three millimeters high at the top of the screen. It should be the front camera and sensor inside, so it is not a true full screen.

That's even more awesome, okay?!
This means they have even developed flexible OLED punching technology! ?
And since the front camera is here, it means that this is still a product solution that can be fully practical and mass-produced!
When did rice become so awesome! ?
Lei Jun slowly walked back to the center of the stage and raised the phone in his hand.

“Yes, full screen.”

It’s really a full screen!
