Chen Zifan feels that if both obstacles are passed, there is nothing wrong with producing 100,000 units of the Stardust 2 limited edition. After all, this is what they want. Just don't regret it after Stardust 3 and Stardust 3+ are released.
He already has a relatively vague idea about what specific plan will be used for the Stardust 2 limited edition.
Originally, this plan would be put on some future models. It is not a complicated thing. It is from the same family as the Stardust 1 limited edition bamboo rhyme pattern maker, but the texture is relatively better and it looks more luxurious.
Of course, this is just an idea. Chen Zifan does not think that the number of votes for the Stardust 2 Limited Edition will reach the target. Most people buy mobile phones just to meet their own needs and have no time to participate in these things.
The mobile phone comes with a case, and you can’t see what’s on the back cover. Besides, who buys a mobile phone and just stares at the back cover?
The official announcement released by the Stardust Marketing Department only had people participating in it a few days ago. The number of people who clicked? reached more than 50,000. The progress was very slow every day after that, and many people logged in specifically to announce their clicks.
Their theory is also simple:
"The limited edition version of Stardust 2 is 80% still 4199 and the price will not increase. But in this case... wouldn't those of us who are not limited edition be at a huge loss? No! We can't sell it!"
The two waves of people even had a big quarrel in the Stardust community about this. As a result, the Stardust marketing department was very happy and kept fanning the flames. They like to do this kind of thing, provoking conflicts and attracting a lot of traffic.
This is why some platforms always like to push things that can arouse people's emotions at a glance, and even specifically push some gender opposition issues. If there are conflicts, there will be traffic, and if there is traffic, there will be...
There are many ways to obtain traffic and maintain popularity. Chen Zifan still hopes that at least some extreme topics will not be used in Stardust Technology, not to mention the Stardust Community, which is a pure communication place.
It is also a place for communication to discuss various products. At first, everyone was discussing mobile phones, but later it expanded to various electronic products. For example, if someone wants to decorate, he will post a post asking which brand of electrical appliances is good.
Refrigerator, TV, washing machine, air conditioner…
Later, it was not limited to electronic products, but also expanded to cars, bicycles, skateboards... There were even users who opened a special post to try various snacks and share their "eating" experiences.
It is somewhat similar to the future evaluation UP master of Station B. Although the influence is not large enough due to the 2G network, it has also formed a new way of playing, including various unboxings, various product experiences, and cooking lessons. …
Chen Zifan is sometimes a little confused. He originally wanted to put Stardust Community on his neck, but it turned out to be more and more like a certain red book. But that doesn't matter. Stardust Community itself is different from these traffic software.
They have a strict management system and will not do anything just to gain attention and attract traffic. Moreover, the Stardust community serves Stardust Technology. Even if there are not so many users, it will continue to operate as usual.
The Stardust 2 limited edition issue has not yet been finalized, but something more important has happened in Haicheng. First, in the name of an environmentally friendly city, a complete ban on motorcycles has been implemented in Haicheng City. The intensity is stronger than ever.
Environmental protection is just a cover. Banning and restricting motorcycles has nothing to do with environmental protection. What is the displacement of a motorcycle? Since it is not environmentally friendly, is it a safety issue? ….
No, electric cars are no safer than motorcycles. Everyone who rides a motorcycle is equipped with a helmet as standard, but very few people wear helmets when riding electric cars.
There is only one reason: Haicheng officials hope to take advantage of the replacement of electric vehicles and motorcycles to further strengthen the management of Haicheng. While banning and restricting motorcycles, they will naturally introduce new standards.
Two types of electric vehicles: electric bicycles and electric mopeds are classified into the ranks of non-motorized vehicles, and there are exclusive license plates for electric vehicles with red numbers on a white background.
The speed of electric bicycles is limited to 25k, and the speed of electric mopeds is limited to 40k. As for electric motorcycles... they are motor vehicles.
Not only do you need to obtain a special driver's license, but you also need a driving license, a motor vehicle lane, and a serious green plate to get on the road, which belongs to the ranks of new energy motor vehicles.
This is also a star
An important direction for the future development of Chen Technology is to launch Fengying Motorcycles to take over the traditional motorcycle market, attract more motorcycle manufacturers to enter the market, and at the same time create Xinghan's own products.
Chen Zifan knows that in the future, there will be many places where electric bicycles will have a green label, and there will also be many cities where electric bicycles will have a white label... The standards in each place are different, and they have not yet been determined.
At least in Haicheng, both electric motorcycles and new energy vehicles will have green license plates in the future, which will provide a huge boost to the development of Xinghan Zhixing.
When it really develops, these green-labeled electric motorcycles can even go on highways, but if they want to be able to go on highways across the country... I'm afraid it's still too early.
Policies vary from place to place. Although motorcycles are also classified as motor vehicles, they are not allowed on expressways in most areas. However, as one of the fastest-growing cities in the country, Haicheng will be more open in terms of policies.
Of course, there is currently no ring highway in Haicheng like there will be in the future. The two-way eight-lane Xinghai Highway that Chen Zifan wants is considered wide in Haicheng.
This extremely severe ban on motorcycles has indeed caused many migrant workers to move to other cities. According to non-public statistics provided by Haicheng officials, the number of migrant workers has decreased by nearly 50,000 in half a month.
But except for those so-called demographic sociologists, no one cares. Stardust Technology doesn’t care, Haicheng officials don’t care, and Huaxia officials don’t care~
With the development of the times and science and technology, annual population migration is inevitable. How can a mere motorcycle ban policy reduce so many migrant workers? It can only mean that they do not belong to Haicheng and can go to other places.
Seriously, people who have stable jobs in Haicheng, let alone banning motorcycles, will not say anything even if Haicheng only allows cycling. They cannot change the general environment of Haicheng, so they can only make themselves more suitable for Haicheng. city.
The ban on motorcycles is one thing, and the promotion of new white brands is another. Many people find it troublesome to license their electric cars... It's very simple. Just occasionally catch a few electric cars without license plates and wearing helmets, and fine them 20 yuan.
The speed of promotion is so fast. For many people who buy electric cars... let alone 20 yuan, the price of meat in the wet market has increased and they have to haggle for half a day.
20 yuan?
Is that 20 yuan? That's fate!
There is no charge for getting a license plate, and there is a fine of 20 for not getting the license plate or not wearing a helmet. You just have to choose and watch it by yourself~….
However, promoting the new white label does not happen overnight. The number of electric vehicles in Haicheng now exceeds 800,000 units, 60% of which are Xinghua electric vehicles, so Stardust Technology is needed to help.
The method used by Chen Zifan is also very simple. He directly asks Stardust Network to develop several official models. Users with Stardust mobile phones can directly apply for them within the network and just take a few photos of the electric car and wearing a helmet.
In theory, you still need product certificates, etc., but in the early stages of promotion... many things are not so strict. After applying online, you can wait a day or two and go directly to the designated location to collect it. There are also dedicated installation masters there~
Chen Zifan didn't know about other brands of electric vehicles. Xinghua Zhixing's electric vehicles can also be licensed at any Xinghua directly-operated store or authorized store. If they were bought from a dealer, they can go wherever they were purchased.
Although Chen Zifan's parents have gone on a trip, there are still many people in charge in the company, and they don't need to take care of every detail. The work is also very simple, and Xinghua's stores are equipped with specialized equipment.
You can even choose a license plate online, and the number you get is random. The numbers on electric vehicle license plates are inherently long, so there is a high chance that you won’t get a good one.
The same goes for helmets. Xinghua directly-operated stores and authorized stores will sell specialized helmets with certain safety guarantees. There are also helmets at dealers, but they definitely vary in quality. What level you buy depends on your needs.
Protective gear is useless if nothing happens to it, but it will be troublesome when it does become useful...
Haicheng City has been busy promoting the new white label, and the Xinghai Driving School on the Bund of Haicheng has also entered the final stage of construction. As expected, the number of applicants for the C2, D, and E driving licenses is very small.
Not only is the C2 driver's license expensive, it also does not allow driving with a manual transmission
, in the words of many people: Automatic transmission has no soul, only manual transmission can make driving fun.
Not to mention D and E. A wave of motorcycle bans in Haicheng even wiped out three-wheeled motorcycles. The Xinghua three-wheeled electric vehicle that originally had poor sales miraculously became a hot-selling model and received a lot of attention. Favored by few.
In fact, it is not a favor. Due to the pressure of life, they need products like tricycles to sell goods and make a living. Many people were reluctant at first, but after they became available... they discovered that three-wheeled electric vehicles are not bad.
First of all, electricity is cheaper than gas. Although charging is slower than refueling, as long as there is a parking place, you can plug in an outlet to charge at any time. More importantly, Xinghua three-wheel electric vehicles have very large torque and can pull!
In some aspects, it is much easier to use than a three-wheeled motorcycle, the driving experience is more comfortable, and the price is not expensive...
Combining various factors, Xinghua three-wheeled electric vehicles have successfully replaced three-wheeled motorcycles and human-powered tricycles, becoming the first-choice tricycle for many dealers in Haicheng's wet markets, supermarkets, fruit stalls, etc.
At Stardust Technology Headquarters, at the same time, Chen Zifan of the newly branded white brand Xinghai Driving School received another email from the person in charge of Shentong. The specific content is: The mold opening of the two game controllers that Chen Zifan needs has been completed.
Next, they will produce two samples of game controllers and send them to Stardust Technology. Chen Zifan is expected to receive them within three days and can conduct product testing.
Chen Zifan naturally wouldn't worry about any problems with the products produced by Shentong Games, but he also knew that although Shentong Games had no objection to Stardust Technology's arrangements, they would not be so honest. ….
The fact was just as he thought. His game controller reminded the person in charge of Shentong that Stardust Technology wanted a more conventional controller. Such a controller would be good everywhere, and there would be no major problems from workmanship to use...
but!
A little too mediocre, right?
Just like the Stardust mobile phone, when you don't know what to choose, you can choose Stardust 1 or Stardust 2. It is an all-round product that can meet the needs of most users, but it also loses some of its unique personality.
At least that's what the person in charge of Shentong thinks. The Stardust game controller is good in every way, but there are not enough game elements and the design is not extreme enough, so he plans to design a more extreme game controller himself.
According to his idea, he will design a "protective case" game controller, with game controllers and buttons on the left and right sides, a mobile phone protective case in the middle, and Shentong Games' logo and lighting effects on the back...
And there are quick-release designs on the left and right sides. Not only can it be removed, the game controller on the right also has a fast USB interface, which can be connected to the battery power of the mobile phone and shared to the other side through the circuit in the protective case.
The logo lighting effect on the back also shares power through the battery of the Stardust mobile phone. After installing the Magic Game Controller on the Stardust 2, it can directly transform into a horizontal game handheld device.
In addition, they will also integrate games that have previously purchased copyrights from Shentong Games and put them on the Stardust application, such as Contra, Tank Battle, etc.
Anyway, they can't sell many cartridge game consoles now. Counterfeit cartridges are running rampant, directly forcing the genuine manufacturers to death. It's better to just recycle waste and find new ways out. However, the ideal is full, but the reality...
Have you really thought that Chen Zifan has never considered this type of game controller? The screen size of Stardust 2 → Stardust 3 seems to be the same, but their backboard materials are different, the hardware configuration is different, and the thickness is also different.
The mobile phone protective cases for Stardust 2 and Stardust 3 may not be universal, let alone this type of game controller, so the one that seems to be average is the best.
The person in charge of Shentong also understood that Chen Zifan would not say anything even if he knew his plan. There were countless Stardust Technology patents used in the Shentong game controller, and Stardust Technology would not suffer any loss.
Moreover, Chen Zifan also hopes that manufacturers in the Stardust Ecological Chain Plan will launch more distinctive products and accessories, which will be very helpful in consolidating the status of Stardust mobile phones.
When the sample of the Stardust game controller arrived together with the email from the person in charge of Shentong, Chen Zifan agreed without thinking. What accessories to produce was the business of the manufacturers in the Stardust Ecological Chain Plan. There was no need to ask him.
As long as they produce it
The products are good enough, just pay the patent fees for some technologies.
Because it is a sample, the packaging of the Stardust game controller is very simple. If it is left outside, no one will believe that it is a product of Stardust Technology. In their impression, the packaging of Stardust products can be used as gift boxes.
Even specialized luxury brands may not be able to match that level of sophistication. Starting from Stardust 1, it triggered a wave of custom packaging boxes. Regardless of what the product says, at least the packaging is exquisite enough.
It's a pity that Jinyu is doomed to not go far despite its bad appearance. At that time, many people criticized this "gift box trend", which was flashy and unrealistic and only increased costs. Rather than doing this, it would be better not to do it and improve the product strength.
However, although the packaging of the Stardust game controller sample is very simple, the product is still good. Chen Zifan can feel a certain solid texture as soon as he uses it. .
