Xiao Qi's shoulder bone injury was actually almost healed after a week.
It was all thanks to Lu Qin's senior brothers to apply the Lu family's ancestral plaster on Xiao Qi. In addition, he was young and strong, so he recovered very well.
Just to be on the safe side, Xiao Qi still couldn't move his shoulders much, but apart from not using too much force, it was fine for eating and sleeping on weekdays.
Of course, this will not affect Xiao Qi's work.
However, seeing the young boss wearing a bandage when he came to work in the company, a group of pretty secretaries felt both distressed and amused.
They had never seen Xiao Qi in such a miserable state.
But they are generally one or two years older than Xiao Qi, so this actually stimulates their maternal nature and they are willing to take care of Xiao Qi more.
In fact, if Xiao Qi hadn't strongly requested it, they would all have fed Xiao Qi.
Putting aside these things, when Xiao Qi's injury was almost healed, another good news came from the laboratory.
Thanks to the efforts of dozens of research talents, another achievement of DreamStars3 - the single side screen, has finally been matched with mobile phones!
Speaking of which, the overall construction machinery for DreamStars 3 is almost complete.
On DreamStars3, in addition to the upgrades and innovations in the software system, Xiao Qi also arranged two major highlights for it. The first is a sapphire screen that can smash ordinary walnuts, and the other is this single-sided screen.
The so-called side screen is the two vertical sections on the side of the mobile phone. Now Xiao Qi has made the right vertical section into a single side screen.
In the past, this was just a metal frame, which was part of the support structure of the entire mobile phone. Now Xiao Qi has attached a layer of touch screen to the outside of the right frame, as if both sides of the phone are covered by screens.
Of course, there is an unconventional mobile phone in Russia that turns the back of the phone into a screen. This idea is also very good. Xiao Qi is looking forward to the day when all four sides of the phone will be touch screens, and even the front and back will be
If it can be unfolded into a complete screen, there are many technical things involved, and it may not be completed within three to five years.
If OLED foldable LCD screens cannot make breakthrough progress, there will still be no way to complete such a foldable and unfolded LCD screen.
For now, the most distinctive feature is naturally the single-curved LCD screen of DreamSnow2. This curved screen brings a surprising feeling to people and is called a perfect breakthrough, so DreamSnow2 is selling very well.
, 60 million units a month are simply not enough to sell.
It’s not like Xiao Qi hasn’t considered whether to have a hyperboloid screen on DreamStars 3, like Samsung’s xyS6.
But double curved surface and single curved surface are actually the same concept, which usually means that the technical difficulty is slightly higher, but it is not the kind of innovation that surprises people again. DreamStars3 will not be different from DreamSnow2 because of this - just like them
The price is the same!
So Xiao Qi finally decided to make the hyperboloid screen an innovation of DreamSnow3 or DreamSnow4, and regarded the single-sided screen as a highlight of DreamStars3.
Compared with the single-surface technology, the single-side technology is more difficult. In terms of aesthetics and spaciousness, the single-side technology is also a level higher.
Naturally, it is easier to install a single-sided screen than a dual-sided screen, because the side screen also has several buttons, such as volume adjustment, power switch, etc., which cannot be eliminated temporarily, and moving to the upper and lower vertical sections also looks nondescript.
Some, so the other side is used as the location of the function keys.
Of course, with the current technology of Fairy Lab, it is not impossible to make dual side screens, but good things cannot be given out at once, right? So it is better to wait for the future DreamStars series products to implement dual side screens.
!
A great advantage of a single-sided screen is that you don’t have to worry about your finger pointing at the wrong place on the screen, causing misoperations.
Because the single side screen is in the vertical section, it is a separate screen.
Moreover, the functions of a single side screen are actually different from those of a single surface screen.
The single-surface screen is a derivative of the main screen function, while the function of the single-side screen can exist completely independently.
For example, if the phone is locked, the main screen will have no power, and the single-surface screen cannot be used.
But because the side screen is not the same screen as the main screen, it can use its own functions independently even after the main screen is locked.
For example, you can turn on the ambient lighting to make the sides flash with fluorescent colors, and you can set the date, time, temperature and other displays so that the screen never goes dark, so you can see this information at any time.
From a practical point of view, the side screen does not have much effect. A vertical section with a width of less than one centimeter cannot carry too many functions.
In order to make the vertical section easier to view and not be too flat, the width of DreamStars 3 has been increased by 0.2 cm.
Such changes are usually invisible, but once the side screen function is turned on, it is really beautiful and dazzling.
The kind of colorful light that can be set by oneself is like the light of shooting stars in a dark room. I like it just by looking at it.
The display function of those side screens eliminates the need for people to grab the phone and open the screen to see it. Whether they are lying down or sitting, they can see it by tilting their heads.
When Xiao Qi saw the results of the laboratory, he couldn't help but admire. Such industrial aesthetics is really fascinating. No wonder Apple can be sold all over the country just because of the word "beautiful".
There are two most important things to do when making a product.
The first is quality, and the second is cost.
Quality includes all aspects, including appearance, hardware, software, etc. These aspects must be done well before anyone will buy it.
Whether you are sincere or not can be known first from the appearance.
Just like when comparing the smartphones of Fairy Company and Apple, or comparing the smartphones of Nokia and Motorola, everyone can see the difference.
The so-called sentiment can make people buy one or two such mobile phones, but if there are too many, they will definitely not buy it, especially when the competitors are so strong.
This is different from going to a store to eat. You can eat the same thing over and over again, but you cannot maintain long-term interest in consumer electronics products. It is normal to like the new and dislike the old.
Otherwise, Nokia's record of being the world's No. 1 mobile phone seller for eleven consecutive years would not have ended up being acquired by Microsoft in just a few years.
On the premise that quality is the first priority, the second cost is also important.
In the previous life, Apple's cost control was very good. Even after adding the cost of hardware and software, plus marketing and other expenses, the profit was usually more than 38%, which is very high.
It is precisely because of such high profits that Apple can invest more in various aspects of research and development, such as smart watches, smart TVs, smart cars, etc., to enrich its product lineup; they can also rely on high profits
profits, to better provide developers with an APP development platform, so that millions of software companies and designers can continue to enrich the APPSTORE camp.
If it is a company with lower profits, such as Xiaomi, you can always see that they have not made much progress in the development of product quality. The progress from Xiaomi 1 to Xiaomi 3 is just an improvement in hardware level, and they
It doesn't have much to do with your own product technology development.
As for the appearance and other design, there is nothing much to say.
Another example is Samsung. Samsung used its smartphone strategy to once occupy 60% of the global smartphone market and made huge profits.
The huge profits also allow Samsung to spend more money on promotion and marketing. Advertisements for their mobile phones are everywhere. This is one of the reasons why consumers have a good impression of Samsung, and it is also one of the reasons why they can continue to attract people's attention.
one.
Turning back to Fairy Company, the same is true.
If you can develop various new technologies, you can win by spending money!
Without the support of ultra-high profits, Fairy Labs would not be able to spend more than 300 billion yuan every year, and it is not afraid of the trend of further increases.
Therefore, Fairy Company must also control the cost of its products.
The cost of the same electronic component is constantly decreasing with the development of technology.
Although the cost will increase to a certain extent due to the replacement of parts and components, this can be balanced so that the overall cost will not increase.
What was mentioned above is only a natural adjustment of costs, and there is also a method of active adjustment.
Nowadays, the cost of DreamStars3 has increased a lot. The sapphire screen and single-side screen have increased by 10% compared to the original cost.
In order to reduce this increased cost, Fairy Laboratory conducted various experiments.
In the end, it was through cost reduction in the four aspects of LCD panels, flash memory chips, sensor components, and wireless modules that the costs of DreamStars3 and DreamStars2 were finally equalized.
It sounds so simple, but for these costs, Fairy Laboratory has put in a lot of effort.
Their hard work is certainly worth it. Without increasing the cost, with the two major functions of sapphire screen and single side screen, DreamStars3 will definitely be another top-notch mobile phone! (To be continued ~^~.)
