Big Country Technology Starts with Mobile Phones - Chapter 202 Finally made in China!
“…”
“???”
“(ω)”
“ψ(`)ψ is done!”
Seems pretty good? If we just do this… we have to add several more items to the detection process, but as long as the user experience can be improved, the time and energy consumed by the new processes is completely worthless.
Naturally, the sooner Xingji 2017 is launched, the better, but one thing is that electric vehicles are different from mobile phones. Their sales and service life are much longer. A mold can be modified and reused.
Or, like Nebula Technology’s computer molds, they can be handed over directly to foundries for use. However, Liu Dalang has no plans for this yet. In his plan, Xingji electric vehicles will not be constantly updated.
What he wants is to subvert the way all mankind travels, rather than simply compete for the market with traditional manufacturers on the existing basis. This is not the development path of a technology company.
Next, the Nebula team led by Liu Dalang perfected the design of a wave of “smart helmets.” After solving the problems with the helmet, they rushed back to Nebula headquarters to prepare new things.
At the same time, the fourth-generation Xingyu products have also begun to enter full distribution. During this period, Huawei Honor, Oppo, and Vivo have successively released their own models in the first half of the year, and the prices are not high.
At this stage, Honor has been benchmarking against Xiaomi, and the starting price is even lower, because Xiaomi has passed the 1999 era, and the next digital series will be the flagship phone.
Honor is still Huawei’s sub-brand that focuses on cost-effectiveness, and it is reasonable to have a lower starting price. ov’s starting price is the highest, with several models starting at 2,999.
But the version with the highest configuration does not exceed 3699. There is no way. After the price reduction of the previous generation Xingyu, it is still very competitive in this price range, and OV has always been priced on the high side.
Nebula Technology also needs Ligai dealers to maintain a huge offline network, but they own their own malls, counters, and direct stores, and the cost is even higher.
This is not to say that there are no other dealers selling Nebula products. On the contrary, Nebula products are more popular among individual dealers, the demand is too great, and the product value retention rate is quite high.
Therefore, individual dealers are more willing to sell second-hand Nebula products, while some dealers sell almost-new phones with rear seals as new phones, and some unscrupulous dealers directly sell fakes to make profits.
Nebulas Technology has never cared about second-hand products, but if they sell fake products, it doesn’t make sense. As long as Nebulas users report it and confirm it, Nebulas Legal Department will fight them one by one.
Do you really think that the “king of copycats” Dalang Technology is a freeloader? And during this period, Pineapple Technology, which is far away in Southeast Asia, is also making a comeback, preparing to return to China to inject new vitality ~
Some consumers were shocked when they saw the Pineapple flagship store. They clicked in and took a look…what a guy! Wasn’t this what he was talking about? There were pineapples in China before? This thing actually dares to come out to fight?
But when they looked at it again…hiss~ they suddenly found it a bit unbelievable. The two top products were the Pineapple 8/8 Plus, both of which had notch screens. The starting price was only 1,099, and looking at the configuration…
It seems a bit fragrant?
If Pineapple Technology had no false standards, it could even be described as a thousand-yuan cost-effective machine. Although Liu Haiping is a bit outdated, any shortcomings are not shortcomings as long as the cost-effectiveness is high.
The most expensive 12+256GB version of the two models, the Pineapple 8 Plus, only costs 2,299 to take home. However, the sales volume of this version will not be too high. After buying a Pineapple phone, it still costs 2,000?
The vast majority of consumers who chose this model couldn’t accept it. Zhang Bo didn’t plan to sell much from the beginning, and he didn’t care about the sales volume of the 1099 model. Anyway, they are not currently focusing on China.
They came back last year, but the attention has never been high. The wave of new phones in the first half of this year has made Pineapple reappear in the public eye. This time it is not a copycat phone.
It is a serious brand, and part of the magical startup animation was changed. This was all forced. Apple pursued it in Southeast Asia, but later found that it was not good for them and finally gave up.
The return of Pineapple Technology will not only lay a foundation for themselves in China, but also allow some of the strengths of Nebula Technology to be fully utilized. It is a pity that consumers who want to buy fruits will suffer…
“Tell me, I wanted to buy an apple to eat, but when I searched on the e-commerce platform, all the products that came up were mobile phones. Now when I search for pineapples, they are also mobile phones!”
“Be patient, after all, most people don’t buy fruits online. Not only apples and pineapples, what do you get when you search for Xiaomi?”
“Mobile phone, mobile phone, mobile phone! I miss Nokia so much! A mobile phone can be used all the time, but it is a pity that it has been eliminated…”
“Perhaps we can think about it differently. Nokia died just because the quality was so good. Nowadays, mobile phones are more expensive~”
“Who said that? Dalang 10 Plus expressed dissatisfaction. My phone fell from the sixth floor and only broke a piece of plastic. There are no other problems!”
“I’m warning you! You are throwing an object from a high altitude! If it hits someone, your phone will be fine, but the person may be lying there!”
“Professional players are prohibited from participating!”
“Da Lang is really patient…”
Thanks to the death of the Xiaojiao mobile phone, otherwise when you buy Chili online, you will still find a mobile phone. Sometimes it is not the mobile phone manufacturer who thinks of such a name, but it is really important to be easy to understand.
After the ancient copycat brand Pineapple Technology gained another wave of popularity, the next focus will be on the fourth generation Xingyu products. The mobile phones are still divided into two versions: light version and standard version.
At the same time, smart bracelets, smart watches, Bluetooth headsets, tablets, laptops and other products will receive an update. The Xingyu family is neatly organized and some new members have been added.
For example, tablets and laptops are larger in size and have higher configurations. There are new 10.8-inch versions for tablets and 14.8-inch versions for laptops, and they are also equipped with independent graphics.
Yes, it is Dalang 1050. Except for the name being changed to D1050, it is exactly the same as Dalang 1050. It is also equipped with a direct connection for independent graphics and is available in both 13.3 and 14.8 sizes.
It’s just that it is limited by the internal space, heat dissipation, and performance release of thin and light notebooks. It is definitely incomparable to all-round notebooks, let alone gaming notebooks, but it is still stronger than ordinary thin and light notebooks ~
The biggest feeling is that this year’s Xingyu thin and light notebook has no pressure when running most online games on the market. Some 3a masterpieces can also run at low image quality, which is already very good.
I have to say that sometimes the market is very strange. When large-size tablets are popular, people always want a small-size tablet that is easy to carry. But when small-size tablets are popular…
The situation is completely reversed. There are thousands of messages in the Nebula community every day asking when Xingyu will release a large-size tablet. Xingyun is too expensive and can’t afford it…
Small-sized tablets are great, and they are very convenient to carry when going out, but their functions overlap a bit with mobile phones… Small-sized tablets are not as enjoyable as large-sized tablets for watching dramas, online classes, and making instant noodles.
The most important thing is that a considerable number of people have no need to use Windows at all, but if they fall into the trap of Nebula, it is impossible to buy an iPad, right? As for Android tablets…current Android tablets are still terrible.
Unless the budget is really not enough, it is really not recommended to buy an Android tablet. Therefore, there was a period of time in history when Android tablets were in a vacuum, and it seemed that only Huawei kept updating them.
Even Xiaomi, which was the first to lay out the ecological chain in China, was forced to give up due to various factors.
Later, due to various reasons, the tablet market showed signs of recovery, and Android tablets made a comeback, and the price/performance ratio was quite high.
The Chinese market in the first half of the year has evolved from last year’s Star-Fruit War to a domestic vs. Apple war. When Nebula Technology was distributing products and preparing to start vigorous promotion, an article appeared~
“The Chinese market is ultimately domestically produced!”
This 18,000-word article analyzes the future direction of China’s mobile phone market and whether Apple can restore its former glory in China. The final conclusion is…
If Apple does not have major technological innovations within two years, its market share in China will plummet to less than 3%, and eventually it will completely become others, but it is a bit unrealistic to want to perish.
Nebula Technology and a number of domestic brands can withstand the attacks of international brands and even drive them out of China, but they cannot stop a small number of people from looking outward. Changing their thinking is the most difficult thing.
Liu Dalang vaguely remembered that he had met such a person on the Internet, with a Japanese comic avatar, Japanese signature, European and American background pictures, various English friend circles, and a second-hand Apple mobile phone…
There is no problem with this, after all, everyone has different preferences, but what surprised Liu Dalang was that this person was using a second-hand apple, but he was hurling insults at domestic brands. Yes, it was insults.
Instead of normal criticism, Liu Dalang asked him why he said that? Have you ever used a domestic brand mobile phone? He said he had used it before and was tricked by a salesperson in a business hall a few years ago.
Asked him what model he was using, he couldn’t tell. Anyway, he kept criticizing domestic mobile phones as rubbish and not easy to use. Even second-hand Apple phones can last for several years. So why not buy a new one?
He said that it was enough. He could accept second-hand ones, and there was no need to buy new ones… But in fact, the money for that second-hand Apple was enough to buy a new Android flagship, which is what Liu Dalang asked him again.
What Liu Dalang didn’t expect was that this person was still insulting domestic brands, and also claimed: “I just have a fetish for foreign brands. Domestic mobile phones get stuck after half a year of use, which is an IQ tax!”
Well, he won!
Another female Apple user is relatively sane, but she can’t change her underlying sense of superiority. She started by saying, “I have a roommate, and her family situation is obviously not very good.
But she still has to be like us, gritting her teeth and buying an iPhone and an iPad, and then eating steamed buns every day. I don’t know why she can’t recognize the reality and choose something that suits her? “
On the one hand, he criticizes his roommate’s vanity, and on the other hand, he shows off his own vanity… It’s really interesting. Another example is the roommate who bought an Android tablet and was criticized for using Apple…
Sometimes it’s really hard to understand~
Liu Dalang finally discovered that the real way to defeat an international giant like Apple may not only rely on products, but also need to change some long-formed concepts, otherwise it will never get ahead.
When consumers cannot form a correct understanding of a certain brand or product, how can they talk about the quality of the product? So since then, Nebula Technology has been committed to changing people’s ideas.
If we just make mobile phones, tablets, laptops and other products to the same level as Apple, it will be impossible to defeat Apple. To do so, we must be more than two generations ahead!
Only by transcending everything from hardware to software to ecology and cost-effectiveness can we truly defeat the international giants, defeat the deep-rooted ideas in the minds of Chinese consumers, and finally become domestically produced!
In the past year, especially in the second half of the year, Nebula Technology has given Apple a heavy blow in the 5000+ segment, but it is not enough. It also needs some products that are more suitable for the mass market.
The new products from Huami ov, Lenovo, Meizu and other manufacturers are just appetizers. The focus is still on the fourth generation of Xingyu, which is the update with the most products and the widest range in the history of Nebula Technology.
The next fifth generation of Xingyu products will be relatively less updated, because the service life of each product is different, and updating too quickly is sometimes not necessarily a good thing…
In addition to configuration upgrades, size upgrades, and product updates, the Nebula Ru0026D department has also put a lot of effort into the appearance and texture that Xingyu is best at, using integrated molding technology.
The light and standard versions of Xingyu-Qing use the integrated hot-bent glass process. The different sizes of Xingyu Qingling and Phantom all use the integrated molding process of glass-like materials. Needless to say, the appearance is good, but There are differences in details.
Liu Dalang also wants to use glass or even ceramics for tablets and thin and light notebooks, but if he does that, it may cause cracks and affect the appearance if dropped, and the weight of the product must also be considered ~
So they used a glass-like material that can create a look and feel similar to ceramics while controlling the weight of tablets and notebooks, but it is different from real ceramics.
The ceramic back cover is very warm and moist when you put it on, while the glass-like back cover has a cool touch when you put it on your hand. It is very moisturizing, and it is also very resistant to fingerprints. Even if it is different from real ceramic, it doesn’t matter.
After all, this is the only one on the market. It stands out from a pile of plastics, metals, and AG frosted glass. In terms of color matching, pure colors are obviously more lethal~
If you observe carefully, you will find that 3D colorful technology, color matching, etc. are rarely used on the flagship models of major brands. Instead, solid colors are more eye-catching and more in line with public aesthetics.
Moreover, for mid-to-low-end models, few manufacturers will make pure white solutions. It is also interesting to say that pure white has the highest reputation on the Internet, but the actual sales volume is not very good.
Even for flagship models, the sales volume of pure white color matching is not very high, but the feeling of white is unmatched by other colors, and it will become more attractive as time goes by.
The fourth generation of Xingyu products still continues the traditional color matching of Xingyu products, including white frost, green mountain, pink and sea blue. In addition, there are two new “gold” colors, namely purple gold and black gold.
The inventory of these two colors will be much smaller, which is equivalent to producing as much as they sell. Take purple and gold as an example. It is not just mixing purple and gold together, but embellishing it with gold.
Under the sun, the detailed transition points of the product will flash with golden light, similar to the diamond cuts commonly used by computer manufacturers. The actual look and feel will be different, and it depends on the sales volume~
Due to changes in product technology, the same color matching originally used in crystal diamond technology will present two completely different feelings when it is extended to this generation of products, but the color is still very plain.
Without heavy makeup, it will not only be stunning at first sight, but also more eye-catching. Regarding other configurations, the dual version of Xingyu-Qing still has a straight screen and a super large curvature waterfall screen, but it has been upgraded in screen quality, battery capacity, and fast charging. !
Although it is a normal update iteration, the improvement is still very large. The four-sided narrowing effect of the light version is very amazing. Needless to say, the standard version, the energy efficiency ratio and balance of the Chang Geng are obvious to all.
One is a 6.2-inch “small straight screen” and the other is a 6.6-inch “large curved screen”. Both have a single camera with a hole-punch in the front, but the front sensor is not reduced, but hidden.
If you have to pick a shortcoming, Xingyu-Qing still does not have IP68 dustproof and waterproof, only IP54 dustproof and waterproof certification. Originally, Liu Dalang wanted to put the retractable camera module on Xingyu.
But in the end, considering the weight, this idea was abandoned. Retractable camera modules are indeed very popular now, but the elimination process of this design is very fast, and there is really no way.
Nebula Technology has mastered part of the under-screen camera technology and will apply it to the new generation of Spark in December this year. Why Spark? Do gamers need to take selfies?
It is not difficult to make an under-screen camera with a 1080p screen, but it is not that difficult to make a 2k camera, especially the Nebula 2k under-screen camera that is preparing to redefine 2k, and it will take some time.
Although under-screen cameras are not yet available on Xingyu products, under-screen camera technology can hide some front-facing sensors under the screen, and the final results are very good.
It also allowed Xingyu-Qing to successfully get rid of the pill screen, and the overall appearance was improved to a higher level. After everything was ready, the Xingyun Marketing Department began to vigorously promote it, starting with renderings and promotional posters.
Turning to the promotional video, six main products, six colors, and some updates to smart wearable devices have made the popularity of the fourth-generation Xingyu products once again reach the forefront of all major platforms.
At the same time, the attention of Apple 8/8 Plus has fallen into nowhere. Ordinary consumers may be very concerned about it, but when major manufacturers join forces, they have terrible control over publicity channels.
Therefore, the news of Apple 8/8 Plus is rarely updated every day, and it is Apple’s consistent style not to break the news before the launch. This is another matter ~ For Nebula users:
“Finally, I have waited for a large-sized tablet! 10.8 inches is still a bit small. It would be better if there were more than 12 inches! 10.8 inches would be fine…”
“The new Xingyu thin and light notebook! I have wanted to buy a laptop for a long time, but luckily I refrained from buying the 16 model. This year’s model is indeed better looking!”
“And there is also a 14.8-inch version! This is the size of a normal laptop! 13.3-inch is a bit small, but it is really light…”
“I just like the 13.3-inch one! But I still got stabbed in the back! Yesterday I said that the only drawback of Xingyu’s thin and light notebook is that it can’t play games, but this…D1050+ independent graphics direct connection, I’m convinced!”
“Where’s the Spark game notebook!? Why no news! I waited until the flowers withered! Oh! It’s official! The release date has finally been announced!”
“It’s the same day as the Xingyu conference! No limit on March 21st!? I’m here! Who wants to buy a mobile phone! Laptops are king!”
“That’s it! Nebula Technology is worthy of you! The laptop comes in six colors! I don’t know which color to buy!”
“This is crazy, really! After reading the Xingyu thin and light notebook, and then looking at other brands of laptops… Okay, I admit that I am a Yangou!”
“Oh no, no one cares about Xingyu-Qing’s frontal appearance!? This frame control is amazing! I just like direct-screen phones!”
“Other configuration upgrades are also quite impressive! I heard that Nebula OS has a new upgrade. Xingyu-Qing is so beautiful. It would be great if the price is not increased if the volume is increased!”
“Definitely! I can even guess the price of Xingyu. Unfortunately, I have already bought Xingyu-Xi, and it is not stuck at all now!”
“Yeah, if it’s not broken, I wouldn’t have any reason to change my phone! So next time, I’ll definitely look at other…new noise-canceling Bluetooth headphones?”
“Now I just want to know when the Star Chronicles 2017 that was promoted a few days ago will be available for purchase! My bicycle pedals are almost worn out!”
” @Nebula Technology @Liu Dalang Aite @Dalang Technology, just sell it directly after announcing the price. Why are you so busy with the press conference?”
“Dalang Technology:???”
“+1!!!”
It has to be said that each product has its own unique audience. Even the Xingyu Bluetooth headsets, which have always received relatively low attention, have attracted a lot of attention, and the interest shown is quite large.
As Liu Dalang predicted, not many people are interested in mobile phones on the Internet. The focus is all on tablets and notebooks, but the largest offline shipments are mobile phones.
Some self-media bloggers from the Nebula Marketing Department also publicly quoted the hotly debated article “Finally Made in China” for promotion. If nothing else, the product power of Xingyu Mobile Phones is really high.
It is a pity that there are no refreshing innovations like the Xingchen and Nebula flagships, but the configuration of Xingyu-Qing is definitely worthy of its mid-range positioning, and even far exceeds that of mid-range models.
Compared with the Star and Nebula flagships, it is mid-range, but compared with other mobile phone manufacturers, this is a proper flagship model. As for the Apple 8/8 Plus…their improvements are indeed huge.
But compared with Nebula products, Liudu seems a bit insignificant. The improvement of Apple products is relative to the previous generation of products, and the improvement of Nebula products is relative to all products.
Therefore, the results are completely different. Nebula products become more powerful with each generation, while Apple products become more powerful with each generation. What is the reason for this?
After Cook saw all the parameters of Xingyu-Qing, he was so angry that he almost overturned the table. Jonathan on the side kept comforting him, but he was a little gloating in his heart, and at the same time he understood one thing.
It turns out that the crisis Apple is facing now is real. Even Cook, who has always been indifferent to emotions and has a good temper, has become like this. If he doesn’t come up with something powerful, he may not be able to survive.
Ever since, Jonathan said: “We can release the products for the spring launch first, Ai Crazy
“Jonathan, this is not the time for us to fight among ourselves. We must unite as one to make the Chinese disruptors realize that Apple is not just a commercial company, but a real technology company!”
“Yes, yes, I understand, so they… need to get rid of you!”
“I’ll talk to them as soon as possible!”
“…”
Technology company? After taking over Apple X again, Jonathan couldn’t help but wonder: Will Apple still be a technology company after Jobs left? It doesn’t seem to be the case…
On the other side, Liu Dalang has led the Nebula team to a new place, an endless empty wilderness, to test a new equipment.
