You can zoom in or zoom out a photo by swiping with your finger. This is the first time for everyone to see it. It is incredible. If you show such a hand in a place with many people, it will be too face!

At this moment, the live comment area of the Apple iPhone launch event on YouTube is about to explode...

"I rely on, black technology, so good!!!"

"Nima, I am so completely convinced, the products designed by Chronos Li are simply amazing!"

"6666, I don't even hold the wall to pee, I just take Chronos·Li... How many surprises are waiting for us with this iPhone???"

"Made, my girlfriend's eyes are already glowing, and I have predicted that I will eat instant noodles in the next month, woo woo woo..."

"Hey, brother upstairs, my fate is as miserable as yours~ No, you should be said to be miserable! My wife said, I must get her an iPhone tonight, otherwise, I will not be allowed for a month in the future. Fuck her~~~ Oh my god, how can my little brother endure it?"

"Uh, it's still brother, you are miserable!"

"… "

Up to now, there have been more than 200,000 comments under the live video of the press conference. Fortunately, Li Zetian did not let YouTube develop a barrage, otherwise, the dense barrage would scare people to death.

Besides, at the press conference site, when everyone was shocked by the finger operation function of zooming in and zooming out the picture, Li Zetian said, "As you can see, by stretching or contracting two fingers, you can zoom in or zoom out the picture! This is something that the previous single-touch screen phones could never do, but multi-touch is possible! Do you feel it is amazing? Haha, let's show you a small game-"Fruit Ninja"!"

Accompanied by Li Zetian's voice, on the video screen, the iPhone exited the album, opened a fruit icon software on the mobile phone interface, and entered "Fruit Ninja".

Games start.

Watermelons, apples, bananas and other kinds of fruits began to pop up, and I saw a finger swipe, like a sharp knife, "swipe" to cut these said in half, this kind of refreshing feeling of cutting fruit, Almost everyone present can feel it!

Li Zetian looked at everyone's reaction, and the corner of his mouth could not help but rise slightly, revealing a smile.

He picked up the microphone and smiled: "This game is an application of multi-touch technology, do you think it's fun? Besides, there are more and more fun mobile games waiting for you to play! And these games are all fun. It can be found in a software called the App Store!"

Li Zetian introduced: "The iPhone smartphone provides an application programming interface API. All third-party developers can develop software on the iPhone platform and then publish it on the App Store. Please watch the big screen!"

After finishing speaking, the staff followed Li Zetian's prompt, quit the game and opened the App Store software.

At this time, everyone saw that this App Store is divided into categories and has many kinds of software.

Yahoo, Facebook, QQ, WeChat, Weibo, Amazon, eBay, Alibaba, Taobao, Baidu, Google, YouTube, Netflix, TripAdvisor, Battle.net, etc., as well as a variety of mobile games, such as Happy Farm, Plant Wars Zombies…

People can't help being stunned by so many software.

The best smartphone nowadays is the N70 released by Nokia in April this year, but the N70 doesn't have much application software. Compared with the iPhone, it is simply weak.

At present, the iPhone App Store has 68 softwares, and users can download whichever one they need.

"The App Store is a great idea. In this way, the iPhone mobile phone application software has become extremely rich, and the choice is entirely up to consumers!"

"Have you noticed? Some software is free, but some is paid. That is, third-party developers can make money through the App Store! If iPhone sales are very large, I beg, doesn't that mean that , third-party developers can make a lot of money through the App Store?!!"

When everyone was discussing, Li Zetian smiled and said: "As you can see, the App Store is actually a third-party software publishing platform. As long as the software that has passed the review of Apple can be published on the App Store. There are free and paid software. For the paid software, Apple will take 20% of the revenue!"

"Now, let's download Facebook and let everyone see how to play the most popular real-name social software on iPhone!"

Having said that, click "get" to start the download, the network speed of the conference skyrocketed, and the download was completed in less than ten seconds. Of course, it can also be downloaded in advance, but for demonstration purposes, it is specially downloaded once.

After downloading, enter your username and password.

The input account is Li Zetian's account, and the password output is an asterisk, which is invisible to everyone, so it doesn't matter.

After entering Facebook, Li Zetian entered his personal page, and then updated a message!

"Hello everyone, this is a message sent from the iPhone's Facebook software. Playing Facebook with iPhone is more convenient anytime, anywhere! In the early morning tonight, everyone is welcome to snap up at Amazon, eBay, Apple's flagship store and Sprint business hall!! !"

When sending a message, don't forget to hit a wave of advertisements!

And the whole process, everyone watched, everyone's faces showed surprise and shock.

Not long after Li Zetian sent the message, a large group of netizens began to reply on the Facebook website!

"Chronos Li, I've been watching the live broadcast of the press conference. I just saw you posted on Facebook, hehe, I'll come over and take a look. Chronos Li, it's really good to play Facebook with iPhone 6, if the price of iPhone is cheap Just a little bit!"

"Yeah, Chronos·Li, we are all attracted to the iPhone. If the price is cheaper, we can still be friends happily... Otherwise, I will unfollow! You will lose your baby easily~~~"

"Yes, yes, the price is not cheap, we will unfollow!"

"… "

Li Zetian was also looking at the screen at this time, and when he saw these messages, he was amused.

Alas, what a deep love, what a duty to blame!

The guests at the press conference couldn't help laughing when they saw these comments and replies.

"Haha, Chronos Li is in trouble now, the price reduction is the voice of the masses!"

"Chronos Li, or you should obey them, haha..."

"Hehe, who made you design the iPhone so well, everyone wants to buy it, but it's too expensive!"

"Interesting~~"

Li Zetian picked up the microphone at this time, smiled bitterly at the camera, and said slowly: "Hello, netizens, Facebook users, I'm very happy that you like the iPhone. The so-called "you get what you pay for", the configuration of the iPhone is as follows: How tall, I have already introduced you to…”

Speaking of this, Li Zetian paused. In fact, the manufacturing cost of the 4GB version of the iPhone was less than 400 US dollars, but the price was 799. He made almost half of the money, which is super huge profit!

"It is precisely because the manufacturing cost of the iPhone is too high that the price cannot be reduced. However, Apple and Sprint Telecom have cooperated to produce 5 million iPhone contract machines, and the price of the iPhone contract machine is very cheap. The 4GB version of the iPhone is ordered for 2 years. The contract price is $399, and the 2-year contract for the 8GB iPhone is $499, doesn’t it feel cheap?”

When netizens heard this, their eyes lit up, and some witty people were ready to go to the Sprint business hall.

"Although 5 million iPhone contract units may seem like a lot, not every mobile phone is called iPhone... At that time, there will be a lot of people snapping up. After all, the price is so much cheaper than Amazon and Apple's flagship stores. It is only 5 million units. It will be sold out in no time!"

At this time, many users replied on Li Zetian's Facebook profile.

"66666!"

"Chronos · Li atmosphere!"

"Chronos·LI is awesome!"

"Chronos Li is super handsome!"

"CHronos, I love you so much, I am willing to give birth to monkeys for you!"

Li Zetian shook his head and smiled, and joked into the microphone: "It's okay to have a monkey, please support Apple more! Next, I will give you a more detailed introduction to the use and functions of the iPhone..."

An hour later, the whole press conference was over.

The stunning iPhone shocked the whole world. Tonight, countless people cheered and waited for the early morning.

At this moment, Apple's lights are shining brightly, and countless partners rushed to Apple's headquarters overnight to discuss cooperation!

At the entrance of Apple's flagship store, there are huge crowds of people, and the queue is hundreds of meters long, like a dragon.

On the other hand, the Sprint business hall was completely crowded, and there were probably hundreds or thousands of people outside the door. At first glance, it was dense and terrifying, attracting more than a dozen security guards to maintain order and pull up the fence.

"My mother, there are so many people!"

Several young people who came from home were stunned when they saw the spectacular scene in front of them.

"Sprint stores have iPhone contract machines at half the price, so it's not surprising that many people come here..."

"Damn, when will this line up? I guess it's dawn, and it's not our turn yet!"

"Let's line up, don't line up, we're afraid we won't be able to buy an iPhone contract machine!"

"Yes, if you want to buy an iPhone contract machine, sooner or later you will have to queue up!!"

"Uh, that's fine, but I suggest that everyone buy tents, food and water. The temperature is low at night and you are hungry!"

Some people don't want to stand in line, and some people aren't Sprint Telecom subscribers, so they'd rather order online.

Time passed by, and the netizens who were standing in front of the computer were very excited.

"Ding! It's 0:00, the purchase channel is officially opened, grab it!!! My iPhone smartphone!!!"

"In order to get a girlfriend, my 24-year-old unicorn arm will explode!!!"

"In order not to sleep on the floor, I must grab the iPhone as soon as possible!!!"

In just one minute, a total of 600,000 iPhones were sold on Amazon and eBay!

The network can't help but be slightly delayed.

Currently, there are less than 8 million iPhones in reserve, with 500,000 allocated to Amazon.com, 500,000 to eBay, 2 million to Apple's flagship store, and the rest to Sprint.

Li Zetian intends to take this opportunity to let more people become Sprint users.

Of course, although the price of the contract machine is low, Apple will not lose money. Sprint will naturally give Apple a rebate, and according to the contract signed by the user, the rebate will be paid to Apple every month. These two years are enough for Apple The company earns more!

This business model was proposed by Li Zetian, and it is beneficial to both Apple and Sprint. It can be said to be mutually beneficial! ! !

In the past life, Apple and other telecommunications companies had such cooperation. Due to the low price of contract phones, it naturally greatly stimulated the sales of iPhone series mobile phones! ! !

And every telecommunications company that cooperates with Apple finally makes a lot of money!

After another two minutes, the iPhone sold out online.

"I'm fucking sold out. It's only been a few minutes, and you told me that iPhones are sold out!!!"

"I'm speechless, how come it's sold out, isn't there enough iPhone production?"

"Damn it, I'm so lost. After robbing it for so long, I didn't get it."

"Made, the quantity on the Internet is too small, I can only go to the physical store to buy it! There must be a lot of people lining up now! Oh, what a day~~ a dog!"

In a certain apartment, a sturdy young woman pointed at a man and scolded: "Look at you, what you can do, even if you can't buy a mobile phone online, what's the use of you! Hurry up and get out! Line up to buy it for me, if you can't buy it, you don't want to go to bed!!"

"Hey, CHronos·li, you're a lot of harm! I have to stay up all night in line!"

Li Zetian has not slept tonight, he is waiting for iPhone sales data at Apple's headquarters.

Just a few minutes later, when the news that the iPhone was sold out on the Internet came, Li Zetian breathed a sigh of relief.

What Li Zetian is most worried about is that the high price of the iPhone makes people hesitant or discouraged, but now it seems that there are too many fruit fans, coupled with the excellence of the iPhone, it is already quite popular and sought after by people.

What could be more successful than selling a million iPhones online in minutes

And according to the news, there are huge crowds at the door of Apple's flagship store and Sprint business hall, rubbing shoulders, densely packed, and countless. Since the iPhone sold out on the Internet, more and more people have rushed over from their homes or Internet cafes. The length of the queue is increasing every minute, blocking many streets, but fortunately at night, there are few vehicles...

Now that the iPhone is a success, Li Zetian doesn't plan to stay up late at Apple's headquarters. When I was old, staying up late was not good for my health, so I said goodbye to everyone, left Apple, got into my own car, and returned home overnight.

The next day, the Internet was full of news about the iPhone smartphone, all reporting how the iPhone was so hot.

Yahoo.com: "Apple's iPhone released yesterday took the nation by storm overnight!!!"

Google: "The era of the mobile Internet is coming. After the iPhone, who will compete?! Google will release the Android mobile operating system in October this year, so please pay attention!!!"

Well, when Google reported the iPhone, it took a lot of heat to promote the Android mobile operating system to be released next!

After the iPhone, who will compete? And then immediately said Android, what does this mean, it is very obvious!

Nokia, Motorola, Ericsson, Samsung and other major mobile phone manufacturers in the world were all shocked by the strong attack of the iPhone.

If the iPhone doesn't make a sound, it's a blockbuster.

Only then did the chairman of Nokia know why Apple has not released any new products in the past two years. It turned out to be secretly developing the iPhone.

"Everyone, the iPhone is all the rage in the United States. Do you have any way to deal with it?"

"Chairman, we never imagined that Apple would play tricks on touch-screen phones! I think it is imperative that Nokia must learn from Apple and launch similar touch-screen phones!"

"I agree with this point of view, and I think we should buy Symbian as soon as possible to fight the iPhone!!"
