Ten days is neither short nor long. Chen Zifan originally thought that it would take about two days to get all the tickets for the Stardust press conference, but in the end, all the time in the morning was gone. Even if there were no interested people at the Xinghan press conference, Many tickets were sold out within one day.
With the increase of live broadcast channels, it is very likely that future Stardust conferences will not require tickets. Those who want to come can just go to the venue to watch. However, in this way, the difficulty of on-site personnel management will increase a lot.
The audience was there, the venue was decorated, and the college entrance examination, which once a year determines the major life events of students, was over. Chen Zifan also left a day on June 9 as a time buffer for those who wanted to come or were already in Haicheng.
But he still underestimated people's enthusiasm. On June 9, Haicheng saw an explosive growth of "floating population". Public transportation such as railways, taxis, and buses were almost as big as the National Day holiday.
It’s not an exaggeration to say “there are people everywhere”. Not to mention taxis, Haicheng’s “special” online taxis are fully deployed. Many drivers usually only make 300 yuan per day, but on June 9th, half a day Over 500.
There are also many people who travel by car.
Because Haicheng does not restrict cars with foreign license plates, and with the opening of highways such as the "Haisha Expressway", the number of cars on the road in Haicheng suddenly surged.
But it is still far from the level of traffic jam.
On the one hand, Haicheng's basic transportation facilities are very complete, the roads are wide and straight, and the planning is reasonable.
On the other hand, there are not as many families with cars these days as there were ten years ago, so there is no way to get stuck in traffic jams.
The locals in Haicheng only find it lively, while tourists who have just arrived in Haicheng from other places sigh as soon as they get off the bus:
“What a clean city!”
The roads are clean, the buildings are clean, and the sky is clean.
The car running on the road also looks well-organized, and the overall feeling is comfortable and pleasant.
Except that the weather is not great, because Haicheng is really... too hot right now. The highest temperature can reach 34°C and the lowest temperature is above 22°C. Since it is a coastal city, the air humidity is relatively high, so the temperature felt outside Can reach above 36℃.
Fortunately, there are places to enjoy the cool air everywhere, and there are air conditioners everywhere in the building. Even the air conditioners in taxis are fully turned on, so there is no need to worry too much.
Because of this, this year's Stardust press conference is scheduled for 8 pm. It's not that Xinghai Stadium does not have air conditioning, but no matter how big the air conditioner is, it is an open-air venue, and it is too hot to hold a press conference during the day.
The press conference will only start tomorrow, June 10th, but on the afternoon of June 9th, Stardust Plaza, Xinghai Stadium, and Xinghai Garden are already crowded with people.
They all came to see the headquarters of Stardust Technology, Xinghan Zhixing, and Star Express. To be honest, Chen Zifan couldn't figure it out. If he didn't go to tourist attractions and didn't look for special projects, why would he go to the Stardust Technology headquarters to see it?
See how many buildings they built?
I don’t know what the Haicheng officials were thinking. They even asked Chen Zifan to arrange a group of volunteers to introduce the visitors. Chen Zifan was too lazy to complain. It was okay. Since the officials wanted to make arrangements, then just make arrangements.
Anyway, there are so many staff members, and there are no fewer than these. Don’t get me wrong, the volunteers here are paid, but the volunteers at the university are not paid.
You can't let people work in vain on a hot day, right?
If Chen Zifan had been at the scene, he would have heard a volunteer asking tourists the question he was concerned about:
"Speaking of which...why do you want to see the Stardust Technology Headquarters? Shouldn't you be looking for special projects?"
The tourist laughed on the spot:
"Isn't Stardust Technology a specialty of Haicheng?"
volunteer:? ? ?
Well, he was speechless!
But what he didn't expect was that the real torture had just begun. The onlookers were like curious babies, asking any questions:
"Is this the Stardust Technology headquarters building?"
"How many layers does it have? Let me count..."
"When I first came here, I thought this was a super big community! It has everything, including a square and a stadium, and there is also a commercial district next to it!"
"How much does the price of Xinghai Garden cost per square meter?"
"I know a Stardust employee who was assigned a 55-square-meter house and sold it."
"How much did it cost?"
"It seems like 400,000?"
volunteer:……
Can we not discuss this?
Stardust Technology is okay, but Xinghan Zhixing is terrible. Since the new car area of the factory is semi-open, it is easy to see the new cars being prepared for logistics in the factory at a relatively close location. These guys The tourists caught the volunteers and started asking:
"What kind of car is that?"
"I have watched the live broadcast and know the area division number of Xinghan Factory. Which area are we in?"
"How long will the newly produced cars from the factory be kept here? What should I do if it rains?"
"Wow, what a big Lucky Cat! It can even shake its hands! By the way, has feces been thrown at it!?"
volunteer:……
Ruin the place! Ruining the scene, right?
"Uh... it's not this lucky cat. You can rest assured that it was just an accident last time. We have replaced all the damaged products and buildings..."
"Oh~"
What the hell is this disbelieving tone about?
Rainy days are definitely not a problem. Which car company’s new cars are afraid of being soaked in the rain? Wouldn't it be enough to wait until we get to the 4S shop and let the 4S shop clean it up? What a big deal.
There are also new cars from the factory. There are really not many car companies on the market that can match the efficiency of Xinghan Zhixing. New cars will be transported within 12 hours after leaving the factory.
Don’t forget that next door is the Star Express headquarters.
Can the courier company deliver it to your doorstep quickly?
at the same time--
Chen Zifan, Wang Jinli, Li Yuan, Zhao Wushang, Zhao Chunqiu and others are gathering together to discuss the specific matters of the press conference. Wang Jinli has always been of the old school and wants to invite a band to perform at the press conference.
But the proposal never passed.
Chen Zifan has seen many press conferences in his memory. There are many manufacturers who like to hire singers and bands, but few can achieve the effect.
It can’t be said that it doesn’t exist, it’s all the opposite effect.
"Everyone is here to see product upgrades, what new technologies are available, and what the final price will be. They are not here to see a few crappy bands singing niche songs!"
"What if we invite an A-list celebrity?"
Chen Zifan:......
"Go away, what can you do with that money?"
"Okay, okay, just pretend I didn't say it."
Zhao Wushang took over the conversation from the side:
"Now it's too late for you to invite me. No one will be willing to parachute here directly. Instead of thinking about these things, it's better to read your speech again."
Chen Zifan also nodded in agreement:
"You will be responsible for the second game. If there is any mistake then, just wait for the money to be deducted!"
Wang Jinli is not worried at all:
"Don't worry, there won't be any problems! But the progress of Stardust-Kaiyang is indeed a bit behind schedule. Fortunately, we have made a direct connection between the console and independent graphics."
"Be careful when demonstrating."
Stardust-Kaiyang's current independent graphics direct connection status is not 100% complete, but half a month is enough to adjust. The innate advantages of Stardust OS are there, and everything can be done very quickly.
Chen Zifan also took a look at the finished product of this gaming notebook. The appearance alone does have some shadow of the Savior, but only a little bit, because both use lead-gray metal A-sides, and the sizes are not much different. The opening and closing of the screen The methods and opening and closing angles are also relatively similar.
But after opening it, it looks completely different. First of all, the screen and keyboard layout of Stardust-Kaiyang are different from those of the Savior. Also, the Savior here refers to the 2021 Savior with a new mold. After all, the previous model was The large plastic molds of the Savior are hard to come by and look good.
In addition to lead gray, Stardust-Kaiyang also has four colors to choose from: frosted silver, matte white, matte light pink, and sky blue. This is also the consistent practice of Stardust Technology, which at least gives consumers enough room to choose.
Do you really think you don’t care about appearance when buying a laptop?
Is it ok as long as the configuration is high-end and the shell is installed?
Yes, sometimes consumers really have no choice due to budget constraints and can only buy products that are stupid, big and cumbersome.
But as long as the economic conditions are met, who will choose products whose quality control is not guaranteed?
While several people were discussing, Chen Zifan noticed that Li Yuan was sitting next to him without saying a word, so he asked:
"What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Li Yuan shook his head:
"No, I was thinking about how I should introduce it the day after tomorrow? As you know, a car can't be held in your hand like a mobile phone. I'm worried that some of the car's functions won't be displayed, so I've been simulating the scene of the day in my mind."
"Just follow the advice I gave you, focus on 'experiential' introduction, don't just read the parameters all the time."
Chen Zifan only thought that Li Yuan was a little nervous hosting a press conference for the first time, but he didn't know that Li Yuan was hesitant about whether to do some "technical work" at the press conference.
It was not until June 10th that many Stardust Technology employees discovered that yesterday's bustle was nothing at all. Today was the real sea of people. Looking at Stardust Plaza from upstairs, it was dark and full of people.
New employees:
"That's not enough!"
senior employee:
"We have become accustomed to it~"
Stardust directly-operated store clerk:
"I'm sorry, I don't have any fluctuations in my heart!"
99% of the consumers who went to Stardust directly-operated stores today did not go there to buy anything, but to experience the legendary Stardust after-sales service, and by the way, get a wave of free benefits, replace the phone case, replace the film, etc. wait.
Just kidding, a new product will be released soon, who will buy the old one? etc! It seems like there’s a big discount on older models?
It’s not impossible to consider it…
But more people are still waiting and watching. After the new models come out, they will comprehensively compare them with the old models. It is not too late to determine their needs before buying. As time passes, Chen Zifan on the other side is basically ready. .
The venue layout of this Stardust press conference is quite different from the Stardust 3 series press conference that year. It seems that it has been fully upgraded on the basis of two years ago.
