Thursday, December 23.
Chang You came to the door of President Pei's office again with some apprehension.
The last time I came was two weeks ago.
At that time, Changyou came with his confident otto os, but a bunch of bugs appeared inexplicably, which can be said to report a big failure.
President Pei also criticized the stability of the system and asked Changyou to put the stability of the system first and not do so many fancy things.
This time, Changyou mainly showed two things to President Pei.
The first is the optimized otto os. The functions this time have not changed at all from the last time. Those things are still the same, and even a small part of the functions that are not particularly practical have been cut off because of stability.
The goal is to ensure the stability and reliability of the system during this reporting process, and no bugs or less bugs.
The second is the first prototype to demonstrate otto technology.
It has been nearly two months since the establishment of Otto Technology. It has to be said that after all, it is a first-class foundry in China, and its efficiency is still very high. The prototype has been made.
However, with this prototype in his hand, Chang You felt particularly uneasy.
Very insecure.
Although I feel that I can't take it out, since everything has been made, I must show it to President Pei.
If President Pei is not satisfied, it is not too late to modify it.
Before entering the door, Chang You first closed his eyes and prayed, hoping that God would bless him this time and that there would be fewer bugs, and then knocked gently on the door.
After hearing "please come in", Changyou pushed in the door and explained his intention to President Pei.
Pei Qian nodded happily: "Okay, let me have a look."
Pei Qian is still very interested in this phone.
After all, this is the first physical product developed by Tenda.
Although many games have been developed before, the games are virtual after all and can only be run on computers or game consoles, and there is no way to play them in your hands.
As an installed brand, rof is actually not much different from the DIY host.
This new mobile phone is different. Although it is a foundry, the mobile phone is a highly integrated technology product after all, and the customized mobile phone is unique.
Then Pei Qian watched helplessly as Chang You put a "brick" in his hand.
… so heavy!
Pei Qian clearly felt that his wrist was under heavy pressure.
"How heavy is this phone?"
Chang You replied embarrassedly, "247 grams."
Pei Qian: "..."
I don't know what to say, so I can only say something awesome!
What is the concept of this weight
At present, the popular mobile phones on the market are basically still small-screen mobile phones. For example, the flagship phones of pineapple mobile phones are basically around 140 grams at present, and even the large-screen version is only about 190 grams.
In fact, the mobile phone reaches 200 grams, which is a bit heavy for many thinner girls.
When it reaches the weight of "half a catty", it is a must for those who practice martial arts.
Pei Qian weighed it in his hand.
Well, it must be very emotional to pick up and smash people!
Chang You obviously knew that this prototype was too heavy, and said a little embarrassedly: "Mr. Pei, there is no way, we have too much material for our mobile phone."
"High refresh rate screen, 00mah large battery, flagship chip, custom cooling system, horizontal linear motor..."
"These are... quite heavy."
Pei Qian nodded.
In order to stack the material and raise the price to the expected 8,000 gear, it really can only be done.
If the stacking material is not hard enough, and the value of this phone is far less than 8000, the system will not allow such inflated pricing.
However, if the material is piled up so hard, it will inevitably cause the mobile phone to be too heavy.
After all, other people's mobile phones still have 2000 and 3000mah batteries. This mobile phone has been directly used for nearly 6000mah, so it's no wonder that it is not heavy.
For Pei Qian, it's better to be heavier. It's better when everyone ridicules this phone as a half-pound machine and an IQ tax. If it can't be sold, it will be backlogged. That's good!
Of course, Pei Qian remembered that there were also mobile phone manufacturers that did this, such as some gaming phones.
However, the current market environment is significantly different from the market environment when gaming phones appeared.
First, gaming phones are a niche market after all.
Unlike computers, mobile phones are highly integrated technology products.
Computers can be configured with gaming notebooks and thin and light notebooks according to their needs. The shapes of the two are very different and it is difficult to replace each other.
But the shape of game phones and ordinary phones is not so different.
At the same time, there are too many functions integrated on the mobile phone, such as taking pictures, video recording, etc. For most, the more important functions of mobile phones are daily use, watching videos, chatting, taking pictures, and playing games are just one of the functions.
They all spend the same price, sacrificing the experience of photography, videography, light and portable, etc. in exchange for a better gaming experience, which is not cost-effective for most people.
Of course, for those heavy mobile gamers, gaming phones may be a good choice.
However, there is a second problem:
In this world, the current mobile game market is not developed.
The more popular mobile games on the market are all card battle types, such as "Blood Battle Song", which are considered very serious and rare.
This kind of lightweight mobile game does not need a high refresh rate screen at all, nor does it need a large battery.
Therefore, from the perspective of ordinary consumers, this mobile phone should be quite... a moth.
The miscellaneous brands that have not been heard of, and the starting point is very heavy. These two points alone are enough to dissuade many consumers from the first impression.
Seeing that President Pei was lost in thought, Chang You thought that he was dissatisfied with this prototype, and hurriedly said: "President Pei, this is just a prototype, and mass production has not started."
"If we feel that the weight is too heavy, we can also think of other ways, such as cutting the battery capacity to about 4,000, so that the weight should be greatly reduced to over 200 grams..."
Pei Qian hurriedly raised his hand: "No, it's fine now!"
"No matter how high the configuration of the mobile phone is, if it is out of power, it is just a brick and can't do anything. We must ensure that our mobile phones always have sufficient power, so that everyone will no longer have power anxiety!"
"Now this power is quite good. This is the highlight of our mobile phone. We must keep it, understand!"
"All in all, I'm very happy with this prototype, this is what I imagine an ideal phone to look like!"
"It's about the same in terms of hardware. I'll experience the system again."
Pei Qian experienced otto os for the second time.
Chang You originally felt a little guilty, but seeing President Pei's reaction, he was unexpectedly satisfied
He hurriedly said: "Okay, Mr. Pei, if you have any comments, you can put them up at any time."
"Also, we are now customizing the appearance, including the color matching of the back shell of the mobile phone, the mobile phone logo, etc., and strive to make the appearance of the mobile phone more beautiful and attract more consumers..."
Pei Qian shook his head while swiping his phone: "The color of the back shell?"
"Don't do so many bells and whistles, just do a solid color."
"If you think it's ugly, just put the logo on it."
"Isn't that what pineapples do?"
Chang You was a little dizzy: "Then... what if it's still ugly?"
Pei Qian looked up at him: "Then make the logo bigger and cover it up."
Changyou: "… "
God, why do you want to make the logo bigger, which means that if the logo is bigger, everyone only pays attention to the logo and not the color of the back cover, right
Many current flagship mobile phones will launch back covers of various colors, and give these colors very poetic names, which is a popular trend in the current domestic mobile phone circle.
As a result, Mr. Pei's taste is different, and he is not allowed to make this color, only pure color...
Even if it is a solid color, you have to put a big logo on it.
At present, the enlarged logo on the back cover is still selling very well, only the pineapple mobile phone.
Because of this large logo, it reflects a strong self-confidence in one's own brand.
If an unknown brand makes its logo too big and consumers take out their mobile phones, they are likely to be asked the embarrassing question of "Hey, what brand is your mobile phone?"
Therefore, most domestic mobile phone brands put the logo in a relatively low-key position, and then match it with a colorful back cover to make a clear distinction from the pineapple mobile phone.
Otherwise, it is easy to be called a copycat.
If you let Changyou decide by himself, he will most likely choose the practice of ordinary domestic mobile phones and make a low-key logo + colorful back cover.
But now, since President Pei has made it clear, Changyou can only rack his brains to fulfill President Pei's request.
Pei Qian continued to play with this "half-pound machine" and was very surprised.
This time, there are really no bugs!
It seems that Changyou has really worked hard during this time, and all the previous bugs have been fixed, and the stability of the system has been greatly improved.
After playing for ten minutes, only three or four bugs were found, and they were all bugs that did not affect the use.
Chang You's waist was obviously straighter.
It's not easy!
The last time I found so many bugs, my face was swollen.
This time, Changyou and his brothers worked hard and finally fixed most of the bugs.
Moreover, in order to prepare for this report, everyone conducted surprise inspections for several days. After they couldn't find any bugs, they came here with confidence.
Even so, President Pei still found three small bugs, which shocked Chang You.
Does Pei always have the kind of constitution that naturally triggers bugs
But anyway, this report was a success.
Chang You considered for a moment and said, "Mr. Pei, the stability of the system is almost there, can we start to do those new system functions now?"
Pei Qian: "..."
Don't give up!
Pei Qian's face sank, and he said solemnly, "It's far from advisable to be so arrogant!"
"Where did this go? The native Eldraine system has so many things that can be optimized, just fix a few bugs, and it's enough?"
"Go back and continue to change, the optimization of details is not enough!"
Changyou took the phone in confusion.
Are the optimizations in the details not enough? This has already caught up with most domestic brands, so why is it not enough
But he didn't dare to ask more, he could only take the phone silently, intending to go back and realize it by himself.
This time, I still failed to advance the development of the system to the next step.
Although the product form of this mobile phone is getting clearer and clearer, Chang You thinks, how is it getting farther and farther from his expectations...
