Regarding the principle, it is naturally impossible for Chen Zifan to say at the press conference that this three-in-one camera involves too many problems, and it uses a lot of advanced technologies from Stardust Technology, such as the Changhe production line...
In terms of technology, the technology used by Stardust-Chenji's three-in-one camera is higher than that of most cameras. Of course, this high level is only a technical level, not that the shooting ability is better than the camera.
After all, the nanometer process technology of Changhe's production line has exceeded 30%, while the CMOS process technology used in most cameras is not even 100%. In terms of optical technology, mobile phones are definitely more advanced.
In addition, the three-in-one camera of Stardust-Chenji was forcibly integrated by Chen Zifan using the [Synthetic Creation] in [Stardust Technology], and the product form is completely different from normal CMOS.
If you buy a Stardust-Chenji, you can tell the difference by taking it apart and comparing it yourself, but it is impossible to copy it. The technology of Stardust Technology is not that easy to copy and the cost is too high. It is better to cooperate directly.
However, some manufacturers just don't believe in evil, and Chen Zifan won't pay attention to them at all. By the time they copy it, Stardust Technology will have new technology.
What should they do then?
Aren’t the situations we face still the same?
Chen Zifan didn't care what others thought. He continued to introduce: "Integrating three different types of cameras into one, paired with a large aperture lens and OIS optical image stabilization, makes it a great photo-taking experience...".
Well...that's a half-truth.
Stardust Technology cannot buy the world's top lenses from normal channels, such as high-end lenses from Carl Zeiss, but what does it matter? How can those businessmen have such high integrity? Don't they make money if they have it?
Who doesn’t know that Stardust mobile phones are shipped in large quantities?
The price of Stardust-Chenji is a bit high, and the sales volume is not too high, but what about the Stardust 4 series?
Future cooperation is more important!
Just relying on the camera market where sales are declining year by year, the profits of those lens manufacturers will only get lower and lower.
It is best to get products from skilled lens manufacturers with less trouble. Chen Zifan does not object to cooperation with them, but when [Stardust Technology] reaches a high enough level, he will also support a new manufacturer.
He couldn't accept this kind of cooperation that was beyond his control, and he didn't want to have defects in his products because of a supplier's incompetence.
Improvements in craftsmanship and space are important, but more important is the improvement in actual shooting effects. The biggest improvement between Stardust-Chenji and Stardust 3+ is not the picture or anti-shake, but the night scene photography function.
There are two types of so-called night scene photography. One is to take photos of simple night scenes that are more realistic, more detailed, and better restored. The other is the "night vision" function, which uses the mobile phone as a night vision device.
Chen Zifan didn't say much and went straight to the function demonstration: "Xingchen-Chenji's performance in night scene photography is very strong. We follow the goal of "what you see is what you get" in order to achieve today's results!
Please take a look at the big screen comparison!
We can clearly see that the night scene photos taken by Stardust-Chenji are purer and retain more details than those taken by Stardust 3+. Even in dark light scenes, it can still take "unbroken" photos. !
Many people may ask, how dark is this low-light scene? There are shadows under the bright sun, and that is also dark light! Let me tell you how dark it is! Come on, please turn off the lights here~"
Amidst the exclamations of countless spectators, the Xinghai Stadium was plunged into darkness. Except for a few weak "safety lights" and four large screens directly above the center of the stadium, there was almost no light source.
In order to create a good effect, the brightness of the four large screens was also deliberately lowered, but the camera could still clearly illuminate Chen Zifan on the stage, allowing people to see what Chen Zifan was doing. He was holding Stardust-Chen. Extremely, I took several shots of the audience.
Stardust-Chenji cannot shoot at will, so the shutter button will rotate once during the photo taking process, which takes about 1.2 seconds. This is also a specially created animation effect to cover up the lack of computing power of the chip.
Originally, the audience thought that they would take two photos and demonstrate it, but they soon discovered that they were wrong. Chen Zifan had no intention of turning on the lights at all, but opened the video preview box, preparing to... shoot a video?
wrong! Not filming a video!
In the Stardust mobile phone preview frame displayed on the big screen, you can clearly see the layout inside the stadium, Xinghan Zhixing's exhibition car, and the product booths of the four design styles of "Fenglin Huoshan"...
And the audience in the auditorium!
These things were completely invisible to them with the naked eye. Without Chen Zifan's introduction, they immediately knew how strong Xingchen Chenji's night vision ability was!
"No, can you see clearly?"
"I finally understand why Xingchen-Chenji's camera is so big! It's completely used as a night vision device! Do you get a mobile phone with the night vision device?"
"Have you ever seen any mobile phone with a surround screen? And the night vision function is not available to everyone. Anyway, I won't go to a dark place at night."
"We have no choice! We have to work at night to make money! If we don't make money, we will have no one to support our wife and children."
"Isn't this good? It's an emergency function! And our city often has power outages. Once the power goes out, it's convenient to turn on a night vision goggle and find a flashlight."
"Then why not just turn on the flashlight on your phone? It seems more convenient, right?"
"???"
"Brother! This is for taking pictures and making videos! It's not that demanding! It's better than nothing!"
"right!"
In fact, you can manually select whether night vision is enabled or not. Turning it off is definitely more realistic and saves power. When turned on, not to mention actually shooting videos, even in the preview interface, it will put a great test on the chip.
Chen Zifan: Damn it! As expected, night vision devices have high requirements on chip computing power! It has only been less than a minute, and the Stardust-Chenji frame is already slightly hot. Fortunately, this is Changhe 3+, not the original Changhe 3...
After a brief demonstration, Chen Zifan made a gesture, and the lights on the scene gradually recovered. The process from bright to dark was very fast, in order to show the functions of Stardust-Chenji and not give the audience time to react.
But in the process from dark to bright, we have to consider whether the audience's eyes can bear it. The gradual restoration of the light is also to give them longer time to adapt.
This also shows that Stardust Technology pays more attention to details. After the lights were completely restored, Chen Zifan said: "I believe you have seen the night shots of Stardust-Chenji, pure night scenes! Night vision devices!"
The two keywords were directly displayed on the big screen behind him, and the applause from the scene rang out again. No matter how specific they were, Chen Zifan did not need to introduce them.
Time is tight, and the camera functions of the Stardust mobile phone are all designed in the direction of "simple but not simple", because it is impossible for most people to buy a mobile phone and study the functions of the camera.
Some mobile phone manufacturers also borrow this point. When promoting, they promote 48 million, 64 million, and 50 million pixels. In fact, in the default mode, users take pictures of 12 million pixels.
The Stardust mobile phone is completely different. It can be at its strongest level by default. This is one of the reasons why the Stardust mobile phone can widen the camera gap with other mobile phones in a short period of time. It is not just as simple as high pixels. Of course, other factors are important as well.
For example, chips, operating systems, imaging algorithms, etc., photos and videos are all calculated. After a lot of calculations, no trace of calculation can be seen. This is the power of Stardust Technology.
Regarding Stardust-Chenji, there is another important thing, and that is the chip. Even though Changhe 3+ is just a minor revision of Changhe 3, Chen Zifan still took it out and introduced it separately. This is very important.
Stardust Technology can give the official the green light all the way and get whatever resources are needed. It can even affect the public transportation field in Haicheng. It does not rely on how much money it can make, but on their chip technology.
After experiencing a chip trough for a period of time, the emergence of Changhe 3 has brought Stardust Technology to a new height. Strictly speaking, Changhe 3+ is an overclocked version of Changhe 3’s new process.
After overclocking the Changhe 3, the 28A process technology is used to increase the transistor density and reduce the power consumption level. Compared with the Changhe 3, the power consumption of the Changhe 3+ is unchanged or even slightly reduced by 16%.
It’s already a good upgrade!
However, if compared with Changhe 4, both Changhe 3 and Changhe 3+ are a bit unsatisfactory.
But Stardust-Chenji has a bit of leek properties, and users who really buy it won't care too much about next year's Stardust 4 series. Can't they just buy it together? Besides, it’s not like Xingchen-Chenji can’t be used?
Taking Stardust 1 as a reference, there is absolutely no problem in using Stardust-Chenji for more than three years! In terms of other configurations, Xingchen-Chenji also has everything it should have:
"Up and down symmetrical stereo dual speakers, IP68 dustproof and waterproof, 15-meter radius infrared remote control, full-featured NFC, special dual X-axis linear motors..."
Taken together, Stardust-Chenji is the combination of all the mobile phone products of Stardust Technology so far! It is also the most pinnacle mobile phone! The appearance is full of technology, not to mention the internal configuration!
If Stardust-Chenji is equipped with a 120HZ high refresh screen and upgrades the chip, it will be very capable even in 2022. After all, a Samsung A in the same year only uses 45 fast charge.
And it’s not fast charging at full power.
Generally speaking, the performance of Stardust-Chenji meets the expectations of most people. The only problem is the price. Chen Zifan didn’t care about it. After introducing the product, he immediately announced the price:
"Stardust-Chenji only has one 128GB version! Its final price is-9999 yuan!"
As soon as the price came out, countless viewers were dumbfounded. How can I say this price... Call it expensive, it seems to be worth the price, and it also uses 128GB of memory, but call it cheap, it costs 10,000!
Ten thousand yuan!
How many people don’t earn 10,000 a year?
The audience immediately became noisy:
"Hiss~"
"Damn it! It's so expensive!"
"The heart that was on fire was extinguished in an instant."
"As expected, Stardust-Chenji is not suitable for me. I'll just wait for my Stardust 4."
"Damn you! Stardust Technology! Are you crazy? Do you dare to sell it for 9999? I admit that this phone has some merits, but isn't it too expensive?"
"Ah... I can't afford it!"
"No wonder Stardust-Chenji is a newly launched series! It's not the same as Stardust 3 and Stardust 3+! It turns out that this series is not sold to ordinary people at all!"
"Um? Who said we won't sell it?"
"The main reason is that I have no money..."
"Let's just buy Stardust 3 and Stardust 3+! It seems like they are really cost-effective! The functions are not worse than Stardust-Chenji, but they lack virtual buttons and are not as sci-fi!"
"Why…"
Chen Zifan knew that Stardust-Chenji would be criticized once it came out, such as why Stardust mobile phones should not be so expensive, etc. But one good thing is that no one questioned Stardust Technology regarding mobile phones.
I won’t use domestic mobile phones as an example.
This is also a process that must be gone through. Without Stardust-Chenji, how can the Stardust digital series be shown to be cost-effective? Anyway, Stardust-Chenji is not a real volume model, so what are you afraid of?
Ignoring the noise in the audience, Chen Zifan continued: "Tonight at 12 o'clock, Stardust-Chenji will be available on the Stardust official website, Stardust Mall... and other platforms, and the delivery service will be provided by Stardust Express!
Same day order delivered same day!
No matter what channel you buy a Stardust mobile phone from, as long as you buy an original and genuine product, we will provide you with services at any Stardust after-sales center across the country..."
Apart from this, they also know that Stardust Technology's after-sales service is very good. After all, it is an official after-sales center. Even mobile phone dealers like to brag about it. They like such manufacturers and don't need to worry about them.
Once the phone is sold, if you have any questions please contact the after-sales service~
Stardust Express is even less so.
Needless to say, even cars are delivered to your door, so where can a mobile phone go?
Next up are the new versions of Stardust 3 and Stardust 3+, with the high price of Stardust-Chenji at the front. The audience just feels that Stardust 3 and Stardust 3+ are just like the benefits delivered to their doorsteps. They are too cheap. !
And there’s no price increase when you increase the quantity!
Especially the liquid-cooled version of Stardust 3, which at first glance looks just as intimidating as Stardust-Chenji! The aramid fiber version of Stardust 3+ is relatively less stunning, but those are only the ceramic and ebony versions that are so successful!
The new versions of the two mobile phones have been revealed a long time ago, but Chen Zifan still briefly and quickly introduced them, which can be regarded as an end to the two mobile phones:
"Stardust 3-liquid cooling version, on the basis of the original configuration, adds a liquid cooling device! This allows the whole machine to achieve a stronger performance release level! The price still starts at 3,999 yuan.
The Stardust 3+ aramid fiber version also keeps the original configuration, but replaces the material of the back cover with stronger aramid fiber. Some people say it can be used to block bullets and be used as a bulletproof shield...
I tell you this very clearly, it is false! Because the aramid fiber on the mobile phone is not thick enough and the material strength is not high enough, it can withstand normal impacts without any problem! And the durability is also very high!
The selling price remains unchanged! Starting from 5999 yuan! At the same time, all Stardust mobile phone series can go to the Stardust after-sales center to replace the sodium-lithium battery! You can replace it free of charge during the warranty period, but only need to pay the labor fee when not in the warranty period~"
Chen Zifan is also very honest. He mainly doesn’t want people to overdo the aramid fiber on the mobile phone. It is just a style. There is no need to give it too many uses. The new version is not the point. The point is that there is a new version. , the original version can be sold at a reduced price.
Naturally, sell at a reduced price!
Promoting the natural price reduction as a deliberate effect of Stardust Technology will stimulate another wave of mobile phone sales.
