If you say this, you must have wronged Stardust Technology. Chen Zifan has never used this matter to hype up the situation. There are only so many seats in the Xinghai Stadium, and even the locals in Haicheng cannot satisfy it.
If you look at it nationwide, a mere 30,000 tickets is simply too few. In addition, there are indeed some "scalpers" who are obstructing it, so it is extremely difficult for ordinary people to grab tickets. There is really nothing that can be done about it.
Chen Zifan personally hates the price increase behavior of scalpers. For this reason, he also asked Stardust Network to develop a set of programs specifically used to detect cheats to steal tickets. However, it can prevent technology scalpers, but not manual scalpers!
These scalpers are also outrageous...
The main thing is a truth!
But it doesn’t matter. If you can’t get tickets, you can watch the live broadcast of the Stardust press conference. The cool thing about Stardust Technology is that the official technology channel will specially set aside time for them to conduct live broadcasts.
The same is true for Haicheng Satellite TV, plus in-store live broadcasts on Stardust official website, Stardust Mall, offline Stardust Direct Stores, Stardust Authorized Stores, Xinghan Direct Stores, and rebroadcasts through some third-party channels.
The influence is directly maxed out.
And this time Stardust Mall has also optimized the live broadcast channel in the mall. The viewing experience will even be much better than the most popular video playback APP now. Most users don’t actually know this. They only know that Stardust The mall is very useful.
What Chen Zifan wants is this kind of effect. Some things don’t need to be promoted with great fanfare, and thanks to the fact that he doesn’t have the idea of entering into a video APP for the time being, Stardust Video is just a simple player. .
The video he wants has the same goals as e-books. Books are a carrier for recording history, recording information, and expressing emotions. The same goes for videos. Some things can also be stored using videos.
Similar to a documentary…
As well as some integrated educational resources, etc., however, Stardust Technology can only provide one channel and one carrier (product) for these things, and it is impossible to do it by itself, and the specific project establishment time is also very early.
However, the top priority right now is to settle the press conference first. As soon as several products are released and launched, Chen Zifan can fully prepare for the Stardust 4 series products and the follow-up products of Xinghan Zhixing.
For the huge domestic demand for automobiles, a few new energy vehicles are obviously not enough, and because Xinghan Zhixing lacks the key "accumulation of vehicle manufacturing technology," many consumers do not buy it.
Of course, the lack of technology accumulation is just what they think. Chen Zifan himself never thinks so, because he has too many copycat technologies...
He can guarantee that the production equipment of Xinghan Automobile Factory is at the advanced level in the world. Moreover, new energy vehicles are inherently different from fuel vehicles, so there is no need to always refer to the experience of other car companies.
Sometimes too many references may limit your imagination. As far as the current situation is concerned, the negative review rate of Xinghan ni is not high. Xinghan 001 and Xinghan 009 have been tested for so many days without any problems.
Some media have a dark heart and want to find fault when they come up, but they can’t find anything to blame, so they can only continue to guide public opinion:
"What a pity~ If Xinghan Zhixing could make fuel vehicles and fuel motorcycles, then I would definitely buy them! Pure electric ones can't run long distances! Charging is inconvenient..."
Chen Zifan doesn't know whether others will buy it, but he said that even if Stardust Technology produced a product according to his needs, he would 99.99% not buy it. However, Chen Zifan also admitted that there are some shortcomings of current new energy vehicles.
For example, charging stations are not popular and long distances are inconvenient, but these things are indeed not under the control of Stardust Technology. The government is already vigorously supporting new energy vehicles, and charging piles and charging stations are being made as popular as possible.
In addition, many consumers are very resistant to new energy vehicles, and ideological issues cannot be solved in a short while. There is nothing to say. Chen Zifan prefers to let his products speak for themselves.
When new energy vehicles at the same price range can outperform fuel vehicles in all aspects...then consumers will no longer have to rely on their own preferences, and they won't have to listen to what others say about the charm of internal combustion engines every day.
Like steam engines and button function machines, it will eventually become a thing of the past. Chen Zifan also knows that these technologies and products are the feelings of some people, but they are not his. Electricity and electronic products are his feelings!
He always thought:
"When I reach my twilight years, sitting in a wheelchair and unable to even stand up, I see the smartphone again, hear the fast charging prompt that the data cable is connected, and hear the sound of the motor running... I am still excited!"
No product will be eliminated, and the same is true for smartphones and new energy vehicles. However, Chen Zifan still has a lot of time. Looking at Steve Jobs on the other side, he is already seriously ill and about to die.
Even so, Jobs still came up with a smartphone that was said to be able to truly compete with Stardust 3+, but this time they did not choose a release date close to Stardust Technology, but postponed it for two months.
The specific release time is to be determined...
What's the meaning?
Don’t you want to see what new tricks Stardust Technology has come up with so that you can take countermeasures in advance?
Chen Zifan is not worried at all about whether Apple can withstand the development speed of Stardust Technology. If Steve Jobs is 30 years younger, he may still be worried, but now... there is nothing to say. Have a good journey~
Samsung has been struggling with Stardust Technology in overseas markets. With its advantages of rich product lines and accumulated brands, Samsung’s mobile phone sales have been at a 50-50 split with Stardust Technology since last year.
(Limited to overseas markets that have been opened, unopened markets are not included in this sales statistics~)
But overseas consumers can also see that the product power of a single product of Stardust mobile phone is significantly stronger than Samsung. Samsung has no good solution in this regard, but can only continue to engage in research and development to create stronger products.
While Stardust Technology is preparing for the "Building the Future" theme conference, Haihua Chip's second-generation Tiangong series of chips has also been designed. At the current speed, mass production can be achieved before the end of the year.
There are three types of Tiangong second-generation chips originally planned, two 3G chips positioned at the mid- to low-end, and one 4G chip positioned at the mid-range. The 3G chips are the upgrade of the Tiangong first-generation chips and are used in low-priced models.
The 4G chip is equivalent to 85% of the level of the Changhe 3. In fact, there is not much difference between the two in daily use at medium and low loads. The model equipped with the Tiangong second-generation 4G chip will be cheaper and less comprehensive.
But today, when domestic chip demand is soaring, orders for Haihua chips are very large. Obviously, the three chips are not "segmented" enough, so multiple chips will be derived on this basis for large-scale shipments.
The people from Haihua Chip are responsible for the affairs over there. Chen Zifan doesn't need to worry too much. He only needs to provide the technology that should be provided. What really worries him is Changhe 4. This chip...
The improvement is huge!
After continuously changing several design plans, the final solution was a "six-core" version. All six of its cores are large cores, and the frequency of a single core is 28% higher than the previous generation.
In other words, if you just look at the geek running score data, the score of Changhe 4 is at least twice that of Changhe 3. Of course, the low running score of Changhe 3 itself is also a reason, otherwise the ratio is not so exaggerated.
The reason is very simple. It is easy to upgrade a 20,000-point chip to 40,000 points, but it is not the same level of difficulty to upgrade a 1.2 million-point chip to 2.4 million points.
Such an extreme design will also put a great test on Changhe Chip Engineering's production line. The original nanometer process is definitely not enough, so Chen Zifan will first upgrade its production line to the 28nm process technology.
The most ideal one is actually 14 nanometers. Chen Zifan can forcefully produce equipment with that kind of precision. The problem is that if the chip develops too fast, the product manufacturing speed cannot keep up, and there will be a disconnect between the top and bottom.
So it’s better to slow down a little, start with Changhe 4, Stardust 4 series, and air-to-air wireless charging technology, and then continue to promote various types of products horizontally.
In the Stardust community, many people are looking forward to another wave of serious revelations from Stardust Technology before the press conference. There must be one. The official website of Stardust Technology first released a family bucket poster with only a black silhouette.
It’s nothing special, just a simple group photo. Many people can tell what the black silhouette in the poster represents at a glance, including the ones that haven’t been exposed:
"The top one must be the new machine from Stardust Technology, but why is there only one?"
"There are two more machines below, but you can tell at a glance that they are Stardust 3 and Stardust 3+. In the middle there are new tablets, Bluetooth headsets, smart watches, as well as drones, electronic paper books, and What?"
"I don't know..."
"That's pretty much it. There are no Stardust 4 or Stardust 4+ this year, which is a little uncomfortable, but it's acceptable. After all, I just bought Stardust 3 and it was eliminated after just one year. That would be even more uncomfortable."
"Are products such as tablets, smart watches, and Bluetooth headsets being updated too quickly? As far as I know, the sales of these three products combined do not seem to be comparable to the sales of Stardust Technology's mobile phones, right?"
"Maybe it's because the tablet computer wasn't updated much last time, so do you want to have some serious information this time?"
"No matter how cruel it is, can it be more cruel than a mobile phone?"
"I don't understand what Stardust Technology is doing..."
"What I want is a lower-priced Stardust 4G mobile phone...or maybe the price of Stardust 3+ is reduced. It's best to buy it for 3,000 yuan. I really don't have enough budget."
"3000 yuan..."
"There is still a chance to buy a second-hand battle-damaged version. It is impossible to buy a new machine. Even if you can buy a stock machine at this price in a few years, it will be meaningless."
"Yeah! So I'm waiting for Stardust 4!"
"Wait slowly, let's go together~"
"Everyone, come and take a look! Stardust Technology has made another announcement! No! Is it a new series? That's not right either!"
"What the hell are you talking about?"
"Can you tell if you go and see it yourself?"
"Damn it! What the hell is this?"
I saw that the official account of Stardust Technology posted another poster. Different from the previous one with a vague black outline, this one is more direct. Not only are the product details very clear, but it is also a "new series."
Many people didn't understand why Stardust Technology updated tablets and other products every year. The service life of these products is obviously longer than mobile phones, but when they saw the new posters, they completely understood.
The so-called "new series" is not really a new series, but it integrates the three products of tablet, smart watch, and Bluetooth headset into one, using a new design language, and the integrity becomes stronger.
It is somewhat similar to the Stardust-Olympic Star set, but there are not one, but four. Chen Zifan named them "Fenglin Huoshan", and each of them has three products with the same design style.
Taken from the military struggle chapter of "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu: "It is as fast as the wind, as slow as the forest, as aggressive as fire, and as immobile as a mountain." Together, it is the wind, forest and volcano, which just saves the trouble of making different colors for each product.
In other words, the color matching of future tablet computers and other products will be replaced by four different designs.
In the future, it may be a bit middle-of-the-road, but now, it doesn't feel that way at all. Moreover, just hearing the name is not enough, you also have to look at the products. Judging from the products on the poster, they are not as exaggerated as imagined.
On the contrary, there will be a very calm illusion. This is just a poster. The feeling of looking at the product in reality will be stronger. Even the shell of the Bluetooth headset is covered with a material similar to ceramic glaze.
Different from the polycarbonate (plastic) casing used by ordinary mobile phone manufacturers, Stardust Technology’s new product is made of a high-strength glass material. It has also been crystallized internally and is very wear-resistant.
The plastic shell of an ordinary Bluetooth headset looks very good when you first buy it. However, within a few days of use, there will be various scratches on it. It does not affect normal use, but it always looks uncomfortable.
Stardust Technology's new Bluetooth headset does not have this concern at all. The only drawback is that it is heavy. The Bluetooth headset itself is definitely not heavy. What is heavy is the charging compartment. If you hold it in your hand, it will have a very strong "solid feeling".
Wang Jinli’s initial suggestion to Chen Zifan was to replace Bluetooth headset with a separate word, something like
It is similar to Apple's pad and Samsung's tab, but later Chen Zifan did not adopt this solution and it was difficult to promote it.
Moreover, Stardust Technology cannot be the same as the Apple in Chen Zifan's memory. It only has a few products, squeezes out toothpaste every year, and occasionally releases a relatively large update. That is not in line with Chen Zifan's development plan.
Stardust Technology has many horizontally expanded product lines, such as drones and electronic paper books this time. If every product has to be named, it will definitely be a huge torture for consumers.
Chen Zifan has even considered incorporating the Stardust-Margin and Stardust-Ink products into the four new design languages. However, there is no need to rush this matter. He can just take a look at the market feedback of the two products first.
As soon as Stardust Technology's four new design languages were announced, they were immediately sought after by many users. Although the appearance design is a matter of opinion, the recognition is definitely possible, and there are four styles to choose from. The coverage area is wider.
