"There's nothing fancy to play with, but maybe there's some new design? I can't use Bluetooth headsets. The rotating phone is nice, but it's not suitable for me. It's better to be simple and practical!"
"After hearing what you said, I can really look forward to it, but the hope is not high. Let me tell you, today's mobile phones are all the same, and there is no difference. They can only rely on novel designs to attract attention!"
"Yeah... I bought this Ericsson three years ago. Now the buttons are a little worn and the screen is a little gray. Everything else is fine!"
"As long as it works, why replace it?"
"..."
This is also the view of most people on current mobile phones. As long as the basic functions are there, it doesn't matter what the design is. That is, the mobile phone will be replaced only when it is no longer useful, and replacing the mobile phone is very troublesome.
The original text messages, photos, contacts, call records...all can't be found. How many people have lost their address books just because they changed their mobile phones, so they have always adhered to the principle of not changing if they can.
Stardust Technology has been very aggressive in advertising recently, but it has always been mysterious. I don’t know what the new machine looks like or what its features are, but judging from the poster, it doesn’t seem to have any special design.
Being simple isn't necessarily a bad thing.
After four months, Stardust Technology once again took out their "The Beginning of an Era" poster. Especially on the Internet, the people who ridiculed it years ago seemed to have disappeared en masse, hiding and silent.
Chen Zifan doesn't care. As long as he doesn't slap Stardust Technology like Zhang Yue, he won't care about anything else.
Speaking of which, Zhang Yue is really miserable. He has been working hard for several years, and suddenly his brain suddenly breaks down. Why do he have to deal with a job applicant? As a result, there is no place for him even if everyone is shouting about it.
He was furious about this: "Our company is full of elites! We don't usually recruit interns! This time we are targeting universities to provide learning opportunities for interns! What's wrong with the fees? Besides, is that called a fee?"
Is there any company that doesn't charge some management fees, food fees, accommodation fees, sanitation fees, door and window repair fees, furniture depreciation fees, etc. If you ask him to say that young people who have no ability should not choose a company like them.
Listen to the school's arrangements honestly, or join a factory and work on your own for two years. When you are almost done and have some ability, you can then consider other things.
"Stop talking..."
Fortunately, the Internet is not developed these days. If it were fifteen years later, Chen Zifan would have to let him feel the anger of ordinary people. College students are not as good as dogs. It doesn't take a year or two. The problem is...
This is too much!
How many families spend their days and nights hoping that their children will go to a good university and have the opportunity to succeed in the future, but is this really the case?
Everyone's opportunities are different, and Chen Zifan won't worry about this. This kind of thing is not his turn. The top priority now is the promotion of Stardust 1, and the goods have been sold out.
Each of the several warehouses built by Star Express has at least 200,000 Stardust 1 units for emergency use. Stardust factories are also working overtime for production. Next, they only need to put up online and offline advertising.
Needless to say, online is still centered around the Stardust official website, focusing on major forums, KouKou groups, and Tieba. Through soft articles and rhythmic methods, the popularity of Stardust 1 has been stirred up in a short period of time.
Offline is mainly based on outsourced large LED LCD screens. Chen Zifan led people to create seven commercials with different publicity points, covering appearance design, manufacturing technology, operating system, practical scenarios, etc.
Although some people often complain that the large LED LCD screens produced by Stardust Technology have serious light pollution, are too loud during the day and are disturbing to the public, and some of the advertisements played are too vulgar and bad taste, this is none of their business.
Stardust Technology is only responsible for the production of LED large screens. They don't know who Li Qiufeng of Huaya Building sold the large screens to, not to mention that some people in Huaya Group think it is a "symbol of urbanization."
In this way, it is even more impossible to dismantle the large LED screens. Not only are they not allowed to be dismantled, but investment is also increased. Even some original Jumin Squares have installed large LED screens to facilitate the reception of advertising investment.
Chen Zifan didn't know about other companies, but the benefits to Stardust Technology were huge anyway. Not only did they earn a wave of profits from large LED screens, but they could also put Stardust mobile phone advertisements on these large screens.
This part of the work has already been solved by Wang Jinli, and Chen Zifan needs to be responsible for the next Stardust press conference, which will be held on June 10. Zhao Wushang and he will host the press conference.
However, Chen Zifan's workload has increased this time. He not only has to host the final price release session, but is also responsible for introducing the new Stardust OS1.0, while Zhao Wushang is responsible for the opening and hardware introduction.
Zhao Wushang and Chen Zifan didn't have any objections to this arrangement, nor did all the Stardust executives. Mo Shaokun was the only one who was a little angry, chasing after Chen Zifan and kept asking: "What about me?"
"You just need to stand behind the stage and be responsible for the applause! I'll give you two shots when the time comes."
Mo Shaokun:......
"Okay! Okay! I remember it! When I build the most awesome new energy vehicle in the world in the future, I will hold a press conference every day! One every day!"
"As long as you're happy~"
"..."
In fact, Chen Zifan also knew that Mo Shaokun was just talking about it. His research on mobile phones was really not deep. Even if he was asked to host the press conference, he would not go. It would be better to save it and let him attend it later.
Recently, Mo Shaokun has contacted many auto parts suppliers and imported a batch of spray painting equipment from abroad. In his words: "Whether a car is high-end or not, you can tell at a glance the quality of the paint!"
Chen Zifan was left speechless. His first new energy vehicle was the Wuling Hong MINIEV. He would first enter the civilian market with a low-priced car. Why would an affordable small electric car need such high-end paint?
But having something is definitely better than nothing, but I don’t know if the cost can be reduced by then. If it can’t be reduced, Mo Shaokun can only reluctantly give up and seal up the spray painting equipment for later use.
Although there is no online live broadcast platform, this Stardust press conference still adopted a "live broadcast" method. First, it was broadcast live on TV. Haicheng TV Station obtained the right to broadcast the Stardust press conference live.
The second is live broadcast on LED large screens. However, not all LED large screens broadcast live. Instead, only the LED large screens in Huaya Building and Huaya Plaza across the country have live broadcasts. There are 29 LED large screens in total.
This is also the limit that Mo Shaokun and Li Qiufeng can achieve for Stardust Technology. Don't underestimate these 29 large LED screens. On June 10, especially at night, the publicity effect they can have is very good.
In the era before smartphones, as long as the weather was not too bad, squares everywhere would be very lively at night. Li Qiufeng and others also wanted to use this method to bring advertisements directly into the lives of ordinary people.
In addition, all 57 Stardust directly-operated stores and some Stardust authorized stores will also broadcast the Stardust press conference live through TV sets. Of course, all live broadcasts will be delayed by a few minutes.
As for the Stardust press conference site, there is not only the Stardust Conference Center, but also the largest Stardust directly-operated store, as well as the Stardust Plaza in front of the Stardust directly-operated store. Unfortunately, there are not many residents around Stardust Technology.
They recruited 500 viewers online for the last press conference. There were quite a few people who registered for this press conference, more than 5,000 people. Chen Zifan was not sure how many viewers could come.
The venues of the Stardust Convention Center, directly-operated stores, and squares are large enough to accommodate as many people as possible, but not everyone has the opportunity to get infield tickets to the Stardust Convention Center. There is really nothing we can do about it.
On the eve of the Stardust press conference, Stardust Technology's "The Beginning of an Era" promotional posters can be seen in the streets and alleys of Haicheng. There are only two results for this kind of hype: either it will reach the top, or it will completely become a laughing stock.
At this time, the people paying most attention to Stardust Technology are not ordinary consumers or users who support Stardust Technology, but the major mobile phone manufacturers. However, if you look closely, you will find that all the attention is paid to domestic mobile phone manufacturers.
Lenovo, Bird, Gionee, Coolpad, Tianyu, Newman, ZTE, Huawei, TCL, Dopod, BBK... Among them, the most intense reaction is Bird. There is no way, Bird is getting worse day by day~
From the day Stardust Technology poached Bird's engineers, the two companies were destined to be at odds with each other. In terms of technology, Bird may not have it, but in terms of advertising, Bird can be said to be a proud domestic mobile phone brand.
Their founder even shouted a slogan: "In terms of mobile phone advertising, Nokia ranks first and Bird mobile phones rank second!"
Except for Nokia, they were dissatisfied with no one, and their products kept imitating Nokia. When Stardust Technology was promoting it, they even filmed a commercial to satirize Stardust Technology's poster promotion.
For example, a new poster of "Waveguide Fighter" is pasted on the promotional poster of Stardust 1, and another example is using the disassembly diagram of the Waveguide mobile phone for comparison, implying that Stardust Technology is hiding its head and tail and dare not bring things out.
The effect of this is indeed effective. After all, Bird is considered a big domestic brand in the hearts of many people. However, Chen Zifan never paid attention to Bird from the beginning to the end. It is too good, it is really too bad!
A mobile phone manufacturer that imitates everything from products to advertisements and doesn't even have core technology, no matter how many commercials it shoots, it won't help. Does it still want to rely on this to maintain its status as a major domestic brand?
Are you kidding me?
As for other domestic mobile phone manufacturers, they are still waiting and watching. In their opinion, Stardust Technology should continue to expand its current market share with a new design they have never seen before, as before~
"Be prepared. As soon as Stardust Technology comes up with a new design, copy it within three days and sell it to those copycat brands to make them look bad!"
"..."
Until the day of the press conference on June 10, international brands did not pay attention to Stardust Technology. Mo Shaokun was very dissatisfied with this: "These so-called international big names will definitely pay the price for their arrogance!"
He didn't know where the cynicism came from, but Chen Zifan was very open-minded about what cost and what was not: "Hey, big manufacturers have an advantage. Even if they react slowly, they can keep up and fight again!"
This is also the reason why those international brands don't pay much attention to Stardust Technology, because even if Stardust Technology comes up with something they don't have, they can quickly develop the same thing with their strength.
Do you really think that the Nokia empire fell overnight? Even though it was flanked by Apple and Android, Nokia still reached its peak in the last years of the empire. This is the real big company.
"Okay, get ready quickly and maintain the network signal on site. If I make a mistake in my demonstration later, remember to arrange a rescue!"
"no problem!"
At 18:00 in the evening, the entrance to the Stardust Convention Center was already crowded with people. In addition to the live audiences who had obtained tickets, there were also ticket scalpers, toys sellers, balloons, glow sticks, and small clapping hands.
Even in the Stardust Plaza not far away, there are people selling kebabs, grilled sausages, egg-filled pancakes, steamed buns, watermelon and fruits and vegetables... It must be said that these vendors have a keen sense of business.
As long as it doesn't affect the normal work of Stardust Technology, Chen Zifan generally doesn't care too much about what people do in Stardust Plaza. The security in the core area of Stardust Factory is very strict, and they can't get by.
As the audience attending the press conference entered the Stardust Conference Center one after another, Zhao Wushang and others also became a little nervous: "Hey, let's go, there are so many people here, we have to do a live broadcast later, oops...
"
"Stop whining there, CEO Stardust, can you please give me some strength?"
"Why…"
Audiences entering the venue felt like they had entered a very large luxury cinema. The giant screen in the front looked exactly like a cinema. The only difference was the furnishings in all directions.
"Look! What a big lamp! There is a layer above the head! What is that?"
"Is there a camera? Why is there a microphone pointed at us? Keep your voice down!"
"What are you afraid of? We have been invited to be an audience! Can you still eat us?"
"Listen up! No matter what comes out in a while, just shout to the labor and management!"
"That's necessary! Did you see? I have all the light sticks ready! Damn it! Why did you make a light sign in front of me? You're not afraid of leakage!"
"fine…"
"..."
Fortunately, this little chaos did not last long. After the number of spectators was determined, the lights dimmed, followed by a burst of simple but rhythmic and lively music.
Pictures also appeared on the big screen on the front, first the logo of Stardust Technology, then the logo of Stardust Network, Stardust Express, and finally the "Era" poster of Stardust Technology four months ago appeared...
This time the poster is no longer a simple poster. The >> diagonal shapes on it moved directly from the poster. After rotating, it went straight to the theme and entered the promotional video, unveiling the mystery of Stardust 1~
The scene suddenly burst into cheers. Under the atmosphere, the originally calm audience became excited. What did they see? A mobile phone with a screen-to-body ratio that was so high that it looked like a fake?
"Holy crap! What the hell is a TM phone! A phone with a screen all over it! Where are the buttons? Damn it! It can't be controlled directly by voice, right?"
"It's fake, right? This is just a promotional video, right? How can a mobile phone have such a big screen? It's so thin! Where is the keyboard hidden?"
