Why is Stardust-Chenji said to be a combination of Stardust 3+ and Stardust 2 electrochromic version? Because it also uses an electrochromic glass back cover, and this time it is integrated with its screen and connected together.
.
In Chen Zifan’s impression, Xiaomi once launched a surround-screen mobile phone called Xiaomi MIX Alpha, but that phone was still in the state of a concept phone, and it may not be realistic to actually mass-produce it and put it on the market.
Stardust-Chenji is different. It uses a two-in-one screen and electrochromic glass to achieve an effect similar to a "surround screen" mobile phone. At this time, the only thing Chen Zifan needs to consider is how to transition between the two.
Naturally, there is no need to think about the traditional middle frame of mobile phones. As for the stand... Stardust mobile phones have never used a bracket until now. This is also the pursuit of product quality.
According to his idea, Stardust-Chenji's curved screen will have a blurred dynamic transition effect on the left and right sides, transitioning to the electro-variable glass on the back cover, and transitioning from the retina screen to the glass light effect.
The feeling is a bit like playing a super-high-resolution 3D Mario Odyssey, and then entering a certain level in the game, it changes back to a 2D + large-grained pixel screen, but it doesn't feel too abrupt.
The two materials, OLED screen and electrochromic glass, are connected in a "seamless" way, and then the blurred animation on the edge of the screen dilutes the connection between the two, visually forming a whole.
In order to protect the OLED screen and electrochromic glass, it will be covered with a ring-shaped tempered glass. If an accident occurs, it will only be this layer of glass that is first impacted by external forces.
It won't be too difficult to replace the glass cover by then, but if the inner screen and electrochromic glass are broken, it will have to be returned to the factory for repair. Based on Stardust-Chenji's estimated cost, the repair price cannot be cheap.
With such a design, Stardust-Chenji naturally does not have conventional physical buttons on both sides. Instead, the Stardust OS team will develop a set of virtual buttons for it, similar to the set used by vivo nex3.
In terms of the choice of front camera, Stardust-Chenji still chose the 13-megapixel front camera on Stardust 3+, but adopted a lift-type camera design. If it is to be done, then it should be perfect.
Just do it in one step~
If Chen Zifan remembers correctly, the vivo nex3 also uses a lift-type camera, but it lacks an electrochromic glass back cover. It is not as extreme as the Stardust-Chenji, and it only pursues product effects.
In fact, Chen Zifan did not want to use a lifting camera at the beginning, because with this mechanical structure, the waterproof difficulty of Xingchen-Chenji will be greatly increased, and the mechanical structure will be damaged over time.
Then I thought about it more carefully... The shock brought by a "complete screen" is always unparalleled. Using a front-facing hole-punch screen can certainly save costs, but why save so much cost?
Stardust-Chenji is not a regular mass-market model, and its sales volume is only about 500,000 units. Even with the Stardust marketing department and official channel hype, it will be difficult to break through 1 million units, so what can you do to save those costs?
What I want to do is make a "special model" that will shock the world, but Stardust-Chenji also contains many elements of exploration models, and some of the technologies used are also unique to Stardust Technology.
.
In terms of processor, Stardust-Chenji's processor is actually no different from the Changhe 3 on Stardust 3+, except that it is named Changhe 3+, has a slight overclocking process, and has better performance.
It's just a little bit, because for tri-core chips, overclocking is basically useless, and may even cause negative effects of overheating.
The remaining peripheral configurations include a large X-axis linear motor, upper and lower symmetrical dual speakers, a large 5000 mAh battery, 30W fast USB charging, infrared remote control, and a virtual mute button.
Some of the configurations are also available on Stardust 3+, and some configurations are slightly better than those on Stardust 3+. However, as a result, the starting price of Stardust-Chenji cannot be cheap, and will reach the "10,000 yuan" level.
Who made Stardust-Chenji use the new technology suite? When it is updated in the future, some of the technologies on Stardust-Chenji will be separated as they develop and applied to multiple Stardust mobile phones.
.
After having the product plan, the next thing Chen Zifan has to do is to arrange everything, then subdivide it into subsidiaries to produce accessories, and finally hand it back to the Stardust factory to complete assembly and testing.
Wang Jinli's words reminded Chen Zifan that Stardust Factory was a bit too domineering. If Stardust Technology wanted to change the company name, it could no longer change it, but Stardust Factory could change it as long as it wanted.
Anyway, it’s not even a subsidiary, but what would be better to change? Chen Zifan’s mind came to mind:
"Super factory? Quantum factory? Space factory? Smart factory? Galaxy factory? Planetary factory? Or invincible factory... Isn't this too middle-of-the-road?"
Such a high-profile name does not seem to be in line with Stardust Technology's consistent development strategy. After much thought, Chen Zifan decided to officially change the name of the Stardust factory to "Stardust Manufacturing" to ride on the popularity of "Made in China".
It's just that the current "Made in China" is not as famous as it will be in the future, so let's make "Made in Stardust" a label belonging to Stardust Technology and continue to instill in people the idea of "Made in Stardust and buy with eyes closed".
In fact, Stardust Technology has already achieved this in the field of smartphones. At this time, there is no external driving force that can stimulate the development of Stardust mobile phones, and it can only rely on its own internal driving force.
The day after the Beijing Olympics, Chen Zifan directly arranged for the Stardust Marketing Department to officially announce that Xinghan Mini can be equipped with fast charging. He used the official account of Xinghan Zhixing and also announced the price:
"Xinghan Zhixing will launch services such as installing fast charging for Xinghan mini on August 26, and installing Xinghan private fast charging charging piles at your doorstep. The price is as follows——"
It costs 4,000 yuan to install fast charging and 2,000 yuan to install a private charging pile at your door. The prices are actually not expensive.
At the same time, Haicheng officials also issued a statement that charging stations and charging piles in Haicheng will be fully opened on August 30. At that time, you only need to download an APP called New Energy on your mobile phone to pay the electricity bill.
And the location of Haicheng charging station can be queried in the new energy APP and Beidou map.
The new energy APP will also be launched on August 26, two days in advance. In official words: let our new energy users enjoy more complete services in advance and contribute to the sanitary city...
What is hygienic and unhygienic?
It’s true that middlemen make the difference~
You can also go to the charging station to apply for a charging card and pay in cash, because charging stations cannot have staff dedicated to refueling like gas stations. At most, there will be two staff to explain how to use it.
When Chen Zifan got the beta version of the new energy APP, he went in and took a look around. He found that the electricity cost per kilowatt hour at the charging station was 0.6 yuan, and it cost 12 yuan to charge the Xinghan mini once. Calculated based on a 210-kilometer range, the electricity consumption per kilometer is——
0.06 yuan!
This price is much cheaper than a fuel vehicle, but some Xinghan Mini owners became anxious when they saw that one kilowatt hour of electricity actually costs 60 cents:
"Holy crap! So expensive!? Then I might as well charge it at home, where it only costs 42 cents per kilowatt hour!"
"My family only has 38 cents!"
“Isn’t this too expensive!?”
All the fuel vehicle owners were dumbfounded. They were sour while typing and questioning:
"You can run 10 kilometers on one kilometre! It only costs 10 cents per kilometer on average! You still think the electricity at the charging station is expensive? Then why don't you try driving our gas truck?"
"That's right! I can stand and talk without pain in my back. I drive at least 40 cents per kilometer. The gap is so big. Aren't you who drive battery cars satisfied?"
"If Xinghan Mini wasn't too small and too much of a toy, I would also like to buy an electric car and drive it..."
"Come on, I really can't afford to hurt you!"
The owner of Xinghan Mini responded like this:
"I don't know what's going on. In the past, I could refill gas for only 100 or 200 yuan, but now I have to use residential electricity instead of commercial electricity to charge electricity for 10 yuan, just to save one or two cents per kilowatt hour of electricity...
"
"I feel the same as the brother above. Ever since I bought the Xinghan mini, I have become more and more stingy every day. I am still waiting for the Xinghan brand charging station to open and go to the Xinghan Zhixing APP to receive free monthly electricity!"
"Don't think about it. The free electricity at the Xinghan brand charging station is only for car owners who have installed fast charging. Don't use the charging station for your 10 hours of slow charging, right?"
"What!?"
"It seems that these 4,000 must be spent!"
"No, it's 6,000! Xinghan Zhixing! How cruel! The electricity bill we just saved has to be paid again! We have to run at least another 10,000 kilometers to not lose money!"
"Run! As long as the power doesn't go out!"
"I don't care, you guys, I'm already at the Xinghan Direct Store. The clerk said I can make a reservation today and help me install it early tomorrow morning. I'll send it back to the Xinghan Automobile Factory in the morning and I'll pick it up in the afternoon. Hurry!"
"???"
"Damn it! Wait for me!"
Some Xinghan mini owners were confused. They looked at the August 26 date on the announcement and thought they had to go tomorrow. But they could queue up in advance today, so what are they waiting for? Install it early and save trouble!
In fact, the majority of Xinghan mini owners who did not choose to install fast charging in the early stage must be the majority. Even if they go back tomorrow, they will not waste much time. Installing fast charging is not laborious, but it is more laborious during transportation.
There are even fewer people who install fast charging and also install private fast charging charging piles. This province should save money. Many people think: What kind of fast charging charging pile should be installed in their own homes? Can't they be charged with just a socket?
The purpose of installing fast charging is to use it at charging stations in the urban area of Haicheng City. Unless you are not in Haicheng, then installation is very necessary. Installing it in Haicheng is also a waste of money.
Logically speaking, it is normal for a city of Haicheng's level to have at least about 1,000 charging stations. But now that new energy vehicles have just started, there is no need to build so many charging equipment in the early stage.
When the market share of new energy vehicles is large enough, perhaps we will continue to build charging stations. The current 100+ charging stations will be enough within two years.
As more and more information appeared in the Stardust community about Xinghan Mini's installation of fast charging, the Xinghan directly-operated store became popular again. Impatient car owners queued up and had their cars delivered the next day.
Just after noon, someone received a call from the Xinghan Direct Store, saying that the first batch of cars had been installed with fast charging, and they could come to the store to pick up the cars at any time.
Ever since~
All kinds of Xinghan mini figures appeared in the streets and alleys of Haicheng again, original ones, modified ones... I don’t know where they are going, but they are just running on the highways of Haicheng, and they are not using electricity to drive.
On the way, I even cursed a few words:
"Damn Xinghan direct-operated store! I gave away 20% of the electricity just to use fast charging when I got it back, but you did the best! You charged me directly to 100%! I had to pay for it first.
!”
Everyone wanted to test the fast charging of Xinghan mini. As a result, Xinghan Automobile Factory installed the fast charging and left it fully charged...
I have no choice but to run by myself!
After a hard three-hour "fierce battle" on the Xinghan mini, running along the speed limit and driving for a while on good roads, I finally drained the Xinghan mini's battery to less than 40%.
This group of car owners excitedly went to the charging station, downloaded the APP according to the requirements on the charging pile, completed the registration, tied the card, and finally pulled out the charging gun, plugged it into the fast charging port, and the charging indicator light also turned on~
"Cool!"
"The muzzle of this gun is so thick!"
"As expected of a fast-charging gun! It's black and thick! But then again, how's the charging efficiency?"
When the car owner directly enters the car, starts the car, lights up the large central control screen, or directly looks at the instrument panel, he can see the distinctive fast charging logo and the battery capacity is constantly increasing.
"Fuck! So fast!"
There is a difference between fast and fast. He also uses Stardust mobile phones and knows that Stardust Technology's fast charging technology is currently far ahead. He can see with his own eyes that his car has been fully charged from 10 hours to 30 minutes now.
It’s another shocking feeling that makes people sigh: It turns out our technology is developing so fast! Electric cars seem to be quite convenient! And Xinghan fast charging inherits one of the features of Stardust fast charging:
During the charging process, you can also charge while using it. It is definitely impossible to charge and run at the same time. The only thing left is to use the large central control screen to watch movies or play two pieces of music. This amount of power is almost negligible.
The Xinghan Mini was already fully charged before the movie was even halfway through. Fortunately, there were no people at the charging station yet, otherwise the people queuing up behind would have to beep their horns to alert the cars in front of them that they were full and evacuate quickly.
Many people don't even have the patience to wait for others to refuel at the gas station, let alone wait for others to charge. I am afraid that only car owners are half-lying on the Xinghan Mini, blowing on the air conditioner, listening to music, and watching movies.
The installation of fast charging on Xinghan Mini is a matter of course for many car owners. Well, it seems to be no big deal. Mobile phones already have fast charging, so why can’t electric cars have fast charging? This is very reasonable!
Isn’t technology always advancing automatically?
In fact, it is not progressing automatically, but ordinary people are busy with too many things, so how can they have so much time to think about these things? In addition, more and more children want to be scientists these days, which makes many people mistakenly believe that there is no shortage of scientists.
, technology can easily move forward.
