Chapter VIII Software Release Boom
After the hug incident, the relationship between the two seemed to become a little strange. They neither looked like they were rekindled nor were they just partners. Most of the time, their conversations were about work, but sometimes, they would also talk about current affairs or romance. The busiest person in the entire company was probably the general manager Yang Sen, and the leisurely person was the chief and vice chairman, which also gave the two partners more time to deepen their understanding.
Sometimes, Liu Jinpeng would ask Li Xiwen out for dinner on the grounds of working meals. At the beginning, Zhu Lin pulled Yang Sen to go with him, but the two of them soon found that they seemed to be turning into big light bulbs. So, when Chairman Liu claimed that he was the only one with Li Xiwen. Moreover, this method could not even say much about the Royal Affairs Administration. If the partners had a meal together, you could still invite me to have tea again.
As time goes by, the official version of Earth Pass is about to be launched. The main program of the official version of Earth Pass only includes the Chinese-English translation package, which is also the opinion of the profiteer Liu Dashao. All other additional languages are paid options. However, Li Xiwen is worried that such a setting will offend many potential customers. Although English is a strong language, it is not a common language in the world after all, and there are still many potential customers who use other languages. You cannot offend all customers for your own reasons.
Finally, after several people's closed-door consultation, the final decision was made according to the general standards. In addition to standard languages such as Chinese and English, French, Italian, Russian, German, etc. were also added as standard. Finally, considering the actual needs of the domestic animation fans, Japanese was added.
The final price is positioned as a simple version (including Chinese-English translation only) with a domestic price of 99 yuan, and a foreign price of 99 US dollars or euro; the standard version (including Chinese-English translation and voice sync translation plug-in) with a domestic price of 199 yuan, and a foreign price of 199 US dollars or euro; the deluxe version (including the content of the standard version plus five extended language packs, namely France, Italy, Russia, Germany and Japan) with a price of 299 yuan.
All extended language packs can be added to any version for a fee, and support translation from any language to any other language, including pronunciation synchronization. The currently launched paid language packs include French, Russian, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Hebrew, Arabic, Latin, Spanish, Portuguese, Indian, Bengali, Thai, Dutch, etc.
All preparations were completed in early August. The press conference of Earth Connect was scheduled for August 3rd, and the location was at Tianyu Building. The press conference was hosted by Yang Sen. Originally, this location was for Li Xiwen, but the eldest princess regretted withdrawing from the press conference for various reasons. On the day of the press conference, the total number of media from various media that Mu Ming came reached three digits, setting a historical record. The organizer Tianyu Building did not expect that there would be so many media attending, so she had to temporarily change the press conference site and moved from the conference room to the conference hall. In the end, there were nearly 20 media reporters standing in the corridor.
In general, the press conference was very successful. Lao Yang talked about his entrepreneurial experience with emotion, talked about the significance of Earth Connect, and poured water on it. He said in a affectionate voice: "Titan Star Technology is a high-tech private enterprise. It has always focused on R&D. Marketing is just to better obtain funds. Our goal is to become the mainstream of the software industry and make software that is convenient for the world. When I was still in the import and export company, Chairman Liu supported me. At the beginning, I didn't think of changing careers, but Chairman Liu convinced me. He said that his goal was to be a gold medal in the Chinese software industry and change the current situation of Chinese software not being famous in the world. I can say Chairman Liu's passion
Infecting me, this prompted me to finally make up my mind to come to Titanium Star Technology. In just a few months, Titanium Star Technology initially fulfilled its promise, and the product we launched will greatly change the whole world. We know that there are more than 100 languages and texts known on the earth, including many that have no inheritance. What are the consequences of so many languages, that is, communication and communication barriers. In the Babel chapter of the Bible, we can see what people had expected for a unified language in ancient times. Now, Earth Connect can be said to have initially achieved this. With Earth Connect, communication is free of barriers. I believe that the day of mutual trust and communication will come soon."
Lao Yang wanted to continue talking about corporate culture, but in the end, the reporters in the audience made a fuss and stopped feeling unsatisfied. At this time, the staff opened the curtain on the stage, showing the huge ball logo "Titan Star" on the stage, and the company logo was vivid. There were a series of software packaging boxes in front of it, from left to right, the simple version, the standard version and the luxury version. Lao Yang introduced each version and demonstrated the simultaneous translation function on the spot, which caused the knowledgeable reporters to exclaim.
He also introduced to everyone that Titanium Star Technology will launch language packages for various local dialects one after another, and will provide genuine users with data interfaces and development tools on the Internet to facilitate customers with unique needs. At the end of the press conference, Lao Yang threw out another bombshell: Titanium Star Technology will soon develop a portable synchronous translator, and will invest in a new factory to start production soon. I believe it will meet the majority of users soon.
On the night of the press conference, major newspapers and media were busy rushing to go and not mention it. All online media were the first to be successful. Jiulang opened a column with the title "Earth Connect: Earth Access From Now", which detailed the history of Titanium Star Technology's success. Those who are interested in it believe that this is mostly a soft article that is bought for money because there are many praises. Somao used the title "The Tower of Babel in the New Era" to analyze the advantages of Earth Access in detail, and followed by the test results of pronunciation translation, and asserted that this would be a software that changed the world.
On August 4th, the sales situation on that day also surprised the most optimistic people. Including customers who paid online, 1,211 sets of the luxury version were sold, 3,931 sets of the standard version were sold, and 47,329 sets of the simple version were sold, with a total sales of more than 5.8 million. According to the buyers interviewed on the spot, after buying this item, you will not worry about failing to speak the foreign language. And what they expected was that the most purchased was not the companies and units, but a large number of students came to buy it. The most sales simple version was mostly student customers, and some student customers also purchased additional extended language packs. According to these student customers, learning foreign languages was very troublesome in the past. Now, with Earth Pass, you are not afraid of watching web pages or chatting or reading materials. Thanks to the designers of Earth Pass.
There was a more distinctive group at the same time, that is, anime fans. These anime fans bought standard versions and purchased additional Japanese expansion packs. So, later the sales staff made this combination and just saw the buyers wearing cosplay clothes and put them in one set. Later, more and more anime houses and many mobile people, some people even imagined opening a stall here to sell his manuscripts. Although they were quickly taken away by the security guard, they also murdered many media films. There were more anime fans, while waiting in line to buy Earth Pass.
, set up a formation to show their professional cosplay props, and the scene quickly became a gang of demons. In the end, a special store was opened for these customers. Later, some people even thought that the photos taken by the enthusiasts were put on the Internet. Some anime house said they wanted Titanium Star Technology to develop professional term packages, such as the Dead House's special terms, etc.; and more anime houses proposed to Titanium Star Technology to develop picture translation plug-ins, otherwise their pictures and comics would not be translated, and they would look very tired. The staff sweated and wrote down these requirements one by one, indicating that they would consider them in the future.
The next day and the third day, this situation continued. Unexpectedly, Liu Jinpeng had to urgently open an online purchase channel that could be downloaded directly to relieve the pressure on physical stores. The reporter was also surprised by this situation. These professionals fully explored the news materials here. According to the Southeast Daily, several Haizhou merchants bought the luxury version of Earth Pass, which directly put it into their laptops, and then went abroad to inspect without a translator. They also said that this was the first time they were so bold, it was very cool and worth a try. Some schools in neighboring countries such as Annan and Fiji were very interested in coming to inspect, and bought hundreds of Earth Passes back, claiming that if it was easy to use, foreign language teaching would be cancelled.
The propaganda department of Bollywood in India also sent people to buy dozens of luxury versions. They said that if this thing is really useful, it would save the effort to ask for translation. They wanted to sell Bollywood movies to the whole world. The most radical one is Goryeo, the younger brother of the Han Empire. They have always been the country with the most resolute position to boycott English. None of them. This time they directly ordered 10,000 luxury versions, 100,000 standard versions and a huge number of simple versions, and added them depending on the usage. In addition to the firm support of Goryeo, many small countries in Africa and Asia and Europe also supported this. They also sent many purchasing groups, and these national-level customers added countless zeros to Titanium Star Technology's account.
In addition, there is also a surprising news. A fax was sent by the United Nations headquarters in Hawaii, asking Titanium Star Technology to send a special person to the headquarters in Hawaii to evaluate what improvements are needed for the voice and text synchronization translation system of the United Nations headquarters building, and how to seamlessly connect the Earth-Transport system into the voice system at the headquarters. In addition, they also asked about the quotation and technical parameters of the portable synchronous translator, and expressed great interest in the large-scale purchase of such technical equipment. This news has caused a greater craze and further
The rush made people who were not concerned about this matter search for relevant information. The media of the Han Empire also reported on the matter one after another. Titanium Star Technology finally had to hold an urgent press conference to announce that the deputy general manager Zhu Lin personally led the technical expert team to Hawaii. In response to these news events, TV stations, radio stations, news channels, newspapers and magazines around the world have reported on the magical software Earth Pass released by Titanium Star Technology in the Han Empire, saying that the synchronous translation function of this translation software will completely change the world.
As of the end of September, statistics showed that nearly 6.8 million sets of Earth Communication software were sold in just two months, and more than 3.8 million copies of paid expansion language packs were sold, with a total sales of nearly 1.4 billion yuan. With the statement of the United Nations, major global organizations and governments also began to contact Titanium Star Technology and demanded that the customization or purchase of Earth Communication software be customized. The purchase volume of these customers is in units of tens of thousands, which brings huge benefits to Titanium Star Technology.
The hot sales of Earthcom have aroused the curiosity of many media. At the same time, there are also many consultation calls, interview requirements and various strange calls to the Titanium Star Technology headquarters. In people's imagination, the customer service staff is not impatient at all. No matter when and where, they can always get soft and patient and meticulous answers. Even if they cannot solve or cannot answer questions, the customer service staff can sincerely apologize to the customers, and some unreasonable interviewers did not hear the harsh words they imagined. And more telephone customers from all over the world found that Titanium Star Technology's customer service always pronounced so standard and always full of energy.
Without any complaints, General Manager Yang Sen understood the answer. Titanium Star Technology's new intelligent response system has passed the test and is about to be launched. This news has set off a craze for Titanium Star Technology at the end of the hot sales trend of Earth Communications. Many companies mainly engaged in telephone consultation hurriedly sent purchasing personnel to Jiangcheng. Unfortunately, in order to avoid labor surplus, they adopted a trial marketing strategy, which led to many consulting companies that wanted to test the waters at the beginning of each month sending people to queue up at the entrance of Titanium Star to compete for those places. More spectators shouted interesting, which led to the call frequency of Titanium Star's customer service phone calls reaching a higher level.
