Chapter 881 February Loses Dignity

"Minister Jin, please try it out."

Li Yurun took a deep breath, his expression softened slightly, and he handed the display device in his hand to the middle-aged man beside him.

"Okay, Vice President."

Minister Jin is a department manager of Samsung Electronics' semiconductor business. Because he has a technical background and is also an expert in semiconductors, Li Yurun only brought him to Huaxing's press conference this time.

Although both of them understand some Chinese, the conversations here are all in Korean, and the people waiting for the experience can't understand them. They only know that these two old sticks are very tough, and they have been delayed for a long time.\bThere are two or three young people. Whispering under his breath.

Naturally, Li Yurun didn't care about what he said. At this moment, all his energy and attention were focused on the display machine in front of him.

Minister Jin is a chip expert and knows the performance of optical cores better than Li Yurun. He just started using it and experienced it for less than a minute, and the solemnity in his eyes continued to increase.

Four or five minutes later, Li Yurun looked at the dense layers of sweat beads on Minister Jin's forehead and couldn't help but pat him on the shoulder.

"Minister Jin, are you okay?"

Minister Jin wiped his forehead with his sleeve, and just as he was about to speak, Li Yurun shook his head, and then the two of them walked directly out of the C3 exhibition hall, and were greeted by Samsung employees waiting outside.

After getting in the car, under Li Yurun's gaze, Minister Jin poured out a lot of words he had been holding back.

“Vice President, Huaxing’s new mobile phone is so powerful!”

"The performance of the optical core far exceeds our expectations. If we use our own chips or Qualcomm's, it may be..."

Minister Jin hesitated for a moment, his face looking like he was constipated. After nearly ten seconds, he gritted his teeth and said, "Maybe he is no match at all."

"Huh..." Li Yurun lay back with his eyes closed, his face showing endless exhaustion.

He already knew about the high performance of Huaxing Mate55 series mobile phones when he got hold of the display phone, but when Minister Jin, a chip expert, said it himself, he was at a loss.

What can Samsung do to resist Huaxing?

"Vice president?" Seeing that Li Yurun remained silent, Minister Jin became anxious and couldn't help but call out softly.

Li Yurun didn't even open his eyes, but just said: "Have we reached Guanghua?"

Minister Jin shook his head, "Not yet."

"Call me when you wait."

After all, the vice president of Samsung Electronics, one of the top ten most powerful figures in the huge Samsung empire, seemed to be on lunch break, which Minister Kim couldn't understand at all.

When the car entered Guanghua University and parked in the parking lot of Guanghua Hotel, Li Yurun, who had just got off the car, suddenly turned to Minister Jin and asked: "Minister Jin, do you think our Samsung exynos chips can compete with optical cores?"

"this……"

\bSeeing Minister Jin's hesitation, Li Yurun waved his hand, "No need to answer, it's me who is persistent."

Looking up, the sun hangs high in the sky, and the blazing sunshine makes people dare not look directly.

After Li Yurun stared straight at it for two or three seconds, he had to raise his right hand to cover it.

Moving his eyes downward, he saw in front of him the Guanghua Hotel with the style of an ancient house in southern Fujian. Boys and girls sometimes passed by on the road beside it.

“It is truly a university full of hope and vitality.”

He sighed, his eyes were lonely, but he smiled to himself.

"Samsung has been reduced to being a dog for a day, haha."

…

"Jobs wouldn't have imagined that Apple would see this day."

In the office.

Cook sat on the computer chair, looking at the dark night outside the transparent glass, and sighed after a long time.

"Would Apple be different if you were here?"

Throwing out this conjecture, Cook fell silent.

He knew that even if Steve Jobs had not passed away, 99% of the time there would be no way to deal with photon screen + optical core.

What troubles Cook is that it was under his watch that Apple got into its current situation.

This will make those who already think he is inferior to Jobs more convinced of their views.

Huaxing's mobile phone launch conference is live broadcast to the outside world. Whether it is China or any country outside China, as long as netizens want to watch it, they can watch it online. YouTube even posted the live broadcast on the homepage, and the number of online viewers even exceeded 200 Ten thousand people, breaking the highest number of online viewers of YouTube live broadcast. Even the live broadcast giant Twitch cannot reach this level.

Cook knows better than anyone else how powerful the performance of optical cores is. Apple Research Institute and think tanks have thoroughly studied optical cores. The more they study, the more desperate they become. This is why Cook did not hesitate to choose to cooperate with Guanghua.

He had never heard of the idiom "mantis mantis acting as a chariot", but he also understood that in the face of absolute strength, any move would be meaningless.

For the sake of Apple's development and stock price, his decision is correct.

But the consequences are also very clear.

Without the A-series chips, Apple's mobile phone has lost its core competitiveness. Facing the pursuit of China's one wolf and three dogs, the situation is extremely bad.

"Farke!"

Cook, who became more and more irritated as he thought about it, couldn't help but cursed, muttering "Guanghua University" on his lips.

While both Samsung and Apple were having headaches over Huaxing's press conference, major media around the world have reported on Huaxing's new products.

"The Times" called Huaxing Mate55 series mobile phones "an epoch-making great product"\b;

The content reported by Reuters is quite satisfactory, neither exaggerating nor disparaging;

The New York Times boasted about Optical Core mobile phones in a high-profile manner, and even praised Optical Core as the crystallization of modern human civilization. However, at the end, it lamented that both Optical Core and Huaxing came from China. The company that claims to be the world's most powerful country still has Licking your face to ask for cooperation, for fear of being rejected;

As for the BBC and ABC, they were pretending to be dead and did not see any relevant reports at all. It was as if there was no press conference.

One hour after the press conference.

Neon Country, Tokyo.

\bIt is 2 o'clock noon in the Neon Kingdom of East Ninth District. \b

Microsoft Neon Headquarters in Yoyogi, Shibuya-ku, rest area.

Compared with the work systems in Europe and the United States, the three Asian countries of China, Japan and South Korea are different. 997 is not only popular in China, but is actually similar in the other two countries.

Russia's "Labor Daily" once made a report on a survey of white-collar workers in four countries. The results showed:

Neonman Tanaka: Works for 11 hours and 36 minutes, takes an 18-minute lunch break, and travels to work for 1 hour and 49 minutes.

Erin, an Ugly native: Working hours are 7 hours and 32 minutes, with a 30-minute lunch break and a 45-minute commute to work.

Hans Mario: 7 hours and 54 minutes of work, 1 hour and 2 minutes of lunch break. The journey to work takes 27 minutes.

Russian Anna: Worked 7 hours and 49 minutes. Lunch break is 45 minutes, and two work breaks are 15 minutes each. The commute to work takes 40 minutes.

Although Neonman Tanaka only works 9 and a half hours excluding commuting and lunch breaks, compared to the working hours in the other three countries, it is really a huge disparity.

In Neon Country, most workers have a lunch break of only one hour or even less than an hour. However, as a foreign company, Microsoft has a lunch break of up to 2 and a half hours, and the entire working day is only 6 or 7 hours.

Not only in China, working in a foreign company in Neon National Energy is also an enviable job.

Matsuda Eriko and Taguchi Maki are both engineers at Microsoft. Because they work in the same department and have a good relationship, they often go out to the mall together during lunch break or drink coffee and chat in the company break.

Today is a different day. Huaxing's new mobile phone launch conference attracted the attention of two people.

"Taguchi-san, let me tell you, you must grab this Huaxing mate55 mobile phone this afternoon! It's amazing!"

Matsuda Eriko's excited tone made Taguchi Maki almost recognize the wrong person. She looked at the other person a few more times and asked curiously: "Matsuda-san, aren't you a loyal supporter of Apple mobile phones?"

"Apple?" Matsuda Eriko snorted and curled her lips and said, "Apple has lost its innovation, and I have lost interest in it."

Taguchi Maki wanted to say, 'But you used to like apples very much, so you went straight to the Apple family and purchased them as soon as possible every time there was a new product.' But seeing Matsuda Eriko's current posture, it seems that she has already moved on and is in love, like It's like the scumbag has found a new target.

After thinking about it, Taguchi Maki added: "Aren't there Samsung and Sony?"

"Forget about Samsung and Sony, they are not as good as Apple!" Matsuda Eriko has no interest in these two brands, even though Sony is a domestic brand.

Now she is only interested in Huaxing. Not only does she want to buy this mobile phone, she also wants to instigate Taguchi Maki to change the mobile phone with her.

"Taguchi-san, this Huaxing is the world's first optical core. It has ten levels of adjustable physical aperture. It's amazing! Not to mention this optical core, when the time comes to play Genshin Impact, the phone will not get hot."

Taguchi Maki didn't take taking pictures very seriously, but Matsuda Eriko talked about Genshin Impact, which made Taguchi Maki shaken.

Taguchi Maki is a diligent and frugal person, which may be related to the family environment in which she grew up. Generally, she will not replace products or items that are usable, and will not buy new ones until they are no longer useful.

The same goes for mobile phones.

But when you think about Genshin Impact and how hot an Apple phone is, it’s more than enough to fry an egg on the back shell.

"But..." Taguchi Maki said hesitantly, "But we may not be able to grab it, right?"

"Except for the Chinese market, the first batch of Huaxing mobile phones sold in the world is only 600,000 units, and there are only 400,000 units in stock."

"It's okay. Let's grab the Porsche model. It will be less competitive. At worst, we will have to wait ten days and a half." Matsuda Eriko said nonchalantly.

The salary in Neon Country is not low, not to mention that as a Microsoft engineer, the salary is very objective. A Porsche mobile phone is only one week's salary.

At worst, I won’t spend too much next week.

"Okay..."

Taguchi Maki, who originally did not plan to change her mobile phone, changed her mind after some encouragement from Matsuda Eriko.

Of course, the main reason is that Huaxing's new mobile phone is too powerful and has many functions, which increases her urge to change phones.

This scene not only happened to Matsuda Eriko and Taguchi Maki, but also happened in many countries.

Loyal fans of Samsung and Apple, as well as people who don’t want to change their phones, all started to have other ideas after the Huaxing press conference.

Maybe it would be good to change to a Huaxing mobile phone?
