The Stardust Marketing Department did not take it too seriously to see the excitement, and even got into trouble, fueling a wave of denunciation of Stardust Technology. In terms of rhythmic ability, the current Stardust Marketing Department is ranked second, and no one dares to claim to be the first.
“Android VS Stardust OS!”
An external operating system jointly created by 84 top companies in the industry is open source, and it is free. Look at Stardust OS... This strong contrast is not too obvious.
Countless ordinary people who do not understand the specific situation, surrounded by various information, have also begun to join the camp that denounces Stardust Technology. It is strange to say that you don't see so many righteous people on weekdays.
Not only are they all jumping out now, but they also look righteous and awe-inspiring, as if Stardust Technology deserves death for not open-sourcing Stardust OS. They have completely forgotten what it was like to pursue imported brands feverishly.
Countless people are scolding:
"If Stardust Technology hadn't been open source! Maybe a smartphone could be bought for only a few hundred yuan! It doesn't cost as much as 4,000 yuan at all!"
"Stardust OS should be the smartphone operating system for all mankind, not just one of them!"
“Thoroughly investigate Stardust Technology! I don’t believe that a copycat electronics factory can produce Stardust OS!”
"We cannot let foreign systems occupy our mobile phone market. This is a truth that even a three-year-old child understands, so I don't know what Stardust Technology is doing!"
"I used to think that Stardust Technology was a conscientious company. Their wages were high, their benefits were good, and they treated their employees well. But now I see it is nothing more than that..."
There are also countless people who regret:
"It's a pity that a brand that was known as the 'rising sun' not long ago has become like this. It can only be said that it has taken the wrong path..."
"Uuuuuuuuuah, the Stardust 1 I just bought, including the phone case, Bluetooth headset, and power bank, costs 5,000 yuan. Stardust Technology, you must not die!"
"The first time I saw someone in the dormitory next door using Stardust 1, I was amazed. I then made up my mind to save money and buy one myself."
"I think so too. It's such a pity that Stardust Technology is over before I can buy it..."
"What does the public relations department of Stardust Technology do? It's already like this. Come out and say something, apologize, and then announce open source, won't it be over?"
Occasionally, there are a small number of sane users:
"Damn, this is obviously being targeted! Stardust OS is open source? That's what people eat. If you go up and ask people to hand it over, isn't it wrong?"
"Isn't this just pure robbery? What's the point? I haven't seen you asking Microsoft to hand over Windows and Nokia to hand over Symbian!"
"Damn it, some people really think that it will be fine if Stardust OS is open source, right? If Stardust OS is really open source, I guarantee that Stardust Technology will not survive for two years!"
However, similar comments were quickly drowned out, and were replaced by even more fierce criticism. No matter what the facts are, everyone only knows that Stardust Technology is about to end, and Stardust 1 is likely to become the swan song of a generation.
People are happy to see the rise of grassroots, and they are also happy to see the demise of brands. Stardust Technology has become one, and it has become a topic of conversation for them after dinner.
The public opinion outside is boiling, but the Stardust Technology headquarters has always remained stable. Chen Zifan and a group of Stardust executives are even talking and laughing, looking at various data and media reports, waiting for the right time to take action.
"Haha, let's talk about these people. They don't even own a Stardust 1, but they are criticizing the use experience of the Stardust 1. Isn't it interesting?"
"Hey? Aren't they all scolding us? Aren't they saying we're about to go bankrupt? Why did the sales at the Stardust Direct Store increase yesterday? What's this for?"
“The number of transactions on Stardust official website and Stardust Mall has also increased, with an increase of 21%!”
Chen Zifan:......
What is this all about, boycotting and buying at the same time? Why does this situation feel like déjà vu? Can you unify your stance and either scold first or buy first? He doesn't even know if he should take action.
Chen Zifan was still hesitating and waiting for a better time to take action. The official did not want to hesitate and took action directly on August 30th. First, a document was issued stating the time to establish cooperation with Stardust Technology.
“May 15th…”
This was three months ago, before Stardust 1 was launched, Stardust Technology was already discussing the open source issue of Stardust OS, and finally the official decision was made to launch a free open source source code.
Later, this part of the content was no longer under the control of Stardust Technology. At that time, people probably didn’t even know what Android was, let alone open source issues.
As soon as the document came out, the discussion about whether Stardust OS was open source came to an abrupt end. Some programs that were being produced were suspended overnight, some articles and reports were withdrawn overnight, and the direction of public opinion began to change.
One day they were still denouncing Stardust Technology, and the next day they were all complaining about Stardust Technology.
The reversal was so fast that it reached the waist of many people. Before they could express their opinions, the official once again released a piece of news that shocked the whole world:
"On September 15th, Hongqi OS will hold a press conference in the auditorium. This is an operating system independently developed by... and based on the Linux kernel. Its underlying source code will be completely free and open source..."
The so-called Hongqi OS is a reskinned version of Stardust OS, but this open source version also has a completely closed version that is not open to the public.
Hongqi OS is not as powerful as the current Stardust OS. It is still the most basic version and is waiting for major domestic mobile phone manufacturers to participate in its development.
After two consecutive waves of heavy blows, public opinion completely reversed, and the sales of Stardust mobile phones also increased. After more than two months, Stardust directly-operated stores and authorized stores once again saw crowds of people queuing up to buy.
Many people online also began to apologize:
"Stardust Technology is sorry! I apologize to you. I spoke too loudly before..."
"I shouldn't follow the trend. Stardust 1 is a good phone, and it's also my goal to save money..."
"I knew there was a reason why the Stardust PR department didn't come forward! Hahaha, that's great!"
"I'm sorry for my previous remarks, but the area of your direct-operated store is too small!"
"It's so crowded that you can't even squeeze in! The queue is almost to the side of the road. Give me a chance to buy a mobile phone!"
"Friendly reminder, you can also buy online..."
Of course, this is only a small number of people, and most people don't take it to heart at all. They just scold them. After scolding them, they find that they were wrong, and they just pretend that it didn't happen.
Whether Stardust OS is open source or not has no impact on their lives, but for domestic mobile phone manufacturers, this news is both good and uncomfortable.
"What a fool! We have just joined the Android camp and have already received the second batch of authorizations. What's going on? Has our money been wasted?"
"What else can we do? Hurry up and prepare to develop Hongqi OS. Isn't this the open source you have been waiting for? You are all crying. What do you want to do?"
"I'm sorry Android, we have better choices now, so we'll see you later..."
"I finally realized what it means to treat others with their own treatment. Stardust Technology, you are so ruthless, you directly restricted our development!"
"Alas, from now on we will be bound to Stardust Technology. We will both prosper and suffer. Now I can't even think about working hard. Alas, it's really..."
The most confused person is definitely Google. They originally wanted to attract a wave of Chinese mobile phone manufacturers by using the opportunity of Android being free and open source. Now, not only did they not attract them, but they also gave Stardust Technology an assist and a friend.
"It's okay, there are no Chinese mobile phone manufacturers, we still have mobile phone manufacturers from other places to cooperate."
It's a pity that they underestimated the Chinese mobile phone manufacturers' desire to make money. As long as the Chinese mobile phone manufacturers are given enough time, whether it is Android or Hongqi OS, they will always produce better and better products and expand the market.
The public opinion storm caused by Android eventually subsided, but some people still have illusions about Android, thinking that imported ones are better than domestic ones, but the original Android was really not good.
You can’t say that. If you say it works, it’s full of bugs. If you say it doesn’t, it’s the best choice...
Chen Zifan was really looking forward to how these people would react when they saw the original Android phone.
The public opinion storm has passed, but Wang Jinli has no intention of stopping. He still remembers that the guys who pointed at Stardust Technology and scolded them are still fine. Thinking of this incident, he feels very unhappy:
"Director Chen, should we find out the guys who scolded us before and teach them a lesson?"
Chen Zifan shook his head: "No, instead of spending energy on this, it is better to study technology, build products, and then seriously promote and market."
"Then let's forget it!?"
"Forget it, it's not necessary. I think maybe we are not confident enough. I think as long as we work harder and develop better and stronger, maybe we will show confidence from the inside out..."
Stardust Technology didn't suffer any loss, and even gained a lot of benefits for no reason. The public opinion has completely turned around and is leaning towards Stardust Technology. Why bother to bother with a few rhythmical players?
As long as he is strong enough, no external wind can knock down Stardust Technology. Chen Zifan is not afraid of any new products from so-called international manufacturers, because he still has one more card to play before the release of Stardust 2 and Stardust Tablet.
That is the Stardust 1 limited edition color scheme that was not announced at the Stardust conference. This was a gift specially prepared for Steve Jobs. After the first round of Android's attack was resolved, it was Apple's turn next.
Chen Zifan has already planned that if Apple 1 does not enter the Chinese market, then the Stardust 1 limited edition color scheme will be used to temper the popularity and use it to deal with Nokia, but if Apple really dares to enter...
The limited edition color scheme of Stardust 1 will be Apple’s first hurdle. If you cross it, you will face the siege of Stardust 2 and Stardust Tablet. If you cannot cross it, then no brand can stop Stardust Technology.
developed.
On the other side, Wang Jinli, who was free, felt that he had nowhere to vent his energy, so he turned around and started recruiting overseas agents, targeting several developed areas in an attempt to build a wave of Stardust agent stores.
