Reborn: Billionaire in College

Chapter 666 The Silent Majority: Conquered Global Users

As soon as the words fell, the whole audience suddenly boiled over.

There have been press conferences for new products in China before, but Chen Pingjiang was the first in the technology circle and started a trend.

This feeling is just like when Xiaomi holds a press conference nowadays but Lei Jun is not there.

I always feel something is missing.

Accompanied by applause from all around, Chen Pingjiang stood up with a smile and walked firmly towards the stage.

After landing, he adjusted the position of the microphone next to his mouth.

“Family, long time no see!”

The opening scene is brief and powerful, yet very infectious.

The speeches of domestic entrepreneurs are obviously not as good as those of Americans. This is caused by their different growth, especially in such a large occasion.

Whether it is Lei Jun or Yu Dazui, they will stutter during the press conference.

But Chen Pingjiang wouldn’t, he was born with a big heart.

A speech should not only be eloquent but also infectious.

There are not many people who can do both of these things, and Chen Pingjiang happens to be one of them.

“For a long time, operating systems have been dominated by European and American countries, and it is difficult for domestic systems to break through. But in today’s era of interconnected and intelligent everything, we have an opportunity to change lanes and overtake.” Chen Pingjiang said: “For many years, Orange Technology has insisted on the path of independent research and development and independent innovation. From the kernel, exokernel, file system of the operating system to programming language, compiler and programming framework, all the way to the AI ​​big model, we at Orange Technology have basically achieved comprehensive breakthroughs.”

“It can be said that we have covered the 10-year journey of our European and American counterparts in just 30 years.”

As he said this, Chen Pingjiang looked down at the stage and exchanged glances with Yu Dazui.

I accidentally stole this guy’s lines again.

But it is obvious that Orange has made more solid progress in the past ten years than Huawei did.

“In the past decade, we have accumulated more than 6 million users and brought continuous innovation to our users. The OrangeOS operating system has gone through four generations of changes and is now firmly on the path to becoming a pure-blooded version.”

“Today, the OOS operating system is widely used in wearable devices, mobile phones, Orange Smart Link, whole-home intelligence, smart cockpits, pads and other terminals. OOS has more than 200 million developers, the number of monthly application development service calls exceeds 600 billion times, and the number of learners has reached 300 million.”

Since it is a developer conference and the main product is its own operating system, it is natural to praise the strength of Orange Technology from beginning to end.

At this point, Chen Pingjiang changed the subject: “The original intention of developing the OOS operating system is to adapt to the current large number of terminal types, the advent of the intelligent era, and users’ ever-increasing demands for interactive experience.”

……

The entire developer conference lasted nearly an hour and a half.

Chen Pingjiang did not rest or drink water. He memorized every piece of data firmly and interspersed humorous jokes in his explanation to make the boring data no longer boring.

This is very rare.

Often the target audience for this kind of press conference are people with programming skills or Internet companies that make a living from it, but Chen Pingjiang can actually retain ordinary interested audiences.

After the press conference, Lei Jun shook his head and exclaimed, “Only Mr. Chen has this ability. It seems that he has prepared a lot.”

Lin Bin at the side smiled and nodded, “He is still a young man, just 30 years old this year, you can tell whether he is young or not, his brain is really good, I definitely can’t remember so much data.”

“Alas, some people are born with leadership qualities, and you have no choice but to obey them.”

……

……

This press conference not only allowed the outside world to see the strength of Orange Technology, but also to understand new products and new systems.

What is even more touching is that Orange Technology has not only not been defeated under the sanctions, but has grown stronger and stronger.

This is undoubtedly the most powerful slap in the face to the sanctioner.

I just like to see you getting mad at me but unable to get rid of me.

The press conference ended just one hour ago.

The sales of X1 and Pocket1 system phones both hit new highs, of course the highest was S10.

It gives competitors the illusion that they are crying wolf.

Orange phones were very powerful before, but not so powerful that other brands couldn’t survive. But now there is such a trend.

……

……

“Ding!”

At the Orange flagship store on the basement floor of Lujiazui IFC in Shanghai, the cash register system issued the Nth arrival reminder.

Store manager Li Wei looked at the line outside the door winding toward Century Avenue, then looked back at the expressions of the other store employees.

After working overtime, everyone was exhausted, but everyone’s expression was filled with indescribable pride and enthusiasm.

This situation seems like a lifetime ago compared to the moment when sanctions came more than half a year ago.

“Manager, all S10 models in Obsidian Black are out of stock, and the power supply of the display models has been used up by customers!”

Li Wei came back to her senses and nodded quickly: “I’ll ask Mr. Liu to transfer goods from other stores, but it may not arrive so quickly, so you can promote other colors first.”

“I think it’s over. Other stores may also be out of stock.”

Li Wei: “What should we do? If it doesn’t work, we can only trouble Mr. Liu to apply to the headquarters.”

At this moment, the store was crowded with people. In order to limit the flow of customers, Li Wei had already arranged two shop assistants to guard the door, so that the flagship store was not overcrowded.

For those who came to buy mobile phones this time, the whole process from looking at the phones to placing orders and paying was very fast.

Everyone has their favorite product.

Girls like the small and beautiful Pocket1, business people and white-collar workers like the X1, and young people generally prefer the S10.

If it weren’t for the rule that each person could only purchase a maximum of two units in advance, they would have been sold out long ago.

……

……

Lao Zhao, a scalper at Beijing’s Zhongguancun Electronics City, was staring at his mobile phone screen when he suddenly crushed his cigarette butt onto the concrete floor.

The latest quotation that popped up in the WeChat group made his pupils tremble – the top-end version of S10 had a premium of 5000 yuan, which was even crazier than when he resold iPhones back then.

Nowadays, if a new iPhone is priced at a 500 yuan premium, it is considered a touching sale. Most people will just sell it for 2 to 300 yuan more.

There is no way. In the past two years, the iPhone has been criticized for being like squeezing toothpaste, and the new products every year are lack of novelty.

No one is like Orange Technology, which keeps giving people surprises in different ways.

“It’s crazy, everyone is fucking crazy!” He grabbed the mountaineering bag full of cash and rushed to the freight channel. The LED screen behind him was replaying the press conference clips: When Chen Pingjiang demonstrated the OOS system, the big screen was simultaneously streaming drone 8K images, smart cockpit road test data and the whole-house smart security system. The switching delay between the twenty-three devices did not exceed 3 milliseconds.

At the Berlin Electronics Show branch, technology blogger Marco held up his newly acquired S10 and aimed the camera at the starry sky pattern on the dome of the exhibition hall.

When the EXIF ​​information showed that this was a handheld shot, the comments in the YouTube live broadcast room suddenly fell into an eerie silence – three seconds later, “Holy shit” in twenty languages ​​flooded the screen.

“They even installed an independent ISP chip for each camera!” Marco ran his trembling fingers over the four blue lenses on the back of the camera.
“Look at the coating of this periscope structure. This is not a mobile phone at all. It is a Hasselblad telescope in your pocket.”

Meanwhile, at Bangkok’s Siam Square, Suchat, the Thai manager of the Orange Experience Store, was yelling in Chinese into the phone: “Send another 300 units! No, 500 units! Those customers holding camping chairs have already lined up to the light rail station!” Behind him, two shop assistants were putting “For Experience Only” labels on the display machines.

Because half an hour ago, the last prototype was touched by a group of enthusiastic students and the fingerprint recognition failed.

In terms of product strength, the mobile phones produced by Orange Technology are no less than those of Apple, and they always have black technology and are sincere works.

In addition, under the current sanctions, Orange’s name has been repeatedly mentioned by overseas users, and everyone has long assumed that this is a very powerful company.

White House Certified!
Even when Xiaomi just opened its flagship store in Tokyo, it was surrounded by crowds, let alone the Orange mobile phone at this moment.

……

……

At one o’clock in the morning in Washington, DC, Commerce Secretary Gina wrapped herself tightly in a camel-hair coat and walked quickly through the corridor.

Cigar smoke leaked out from the crack in the door of the Oval Office, and she heard the President’s hoarse roar: “Is this what you call the technological gap? Now the Chinese even develop their own compilers!”

A Rand Corporation report lay quietly on the conference table. On page 17, a shocking conclusion was written in bold font: Sanctions have increased the compound annual growth rate of China’s semiconductor industry to 27%, and Huaxin Technology’s chip yield has increased instead of decreased after the sanctions. Multiple channels have confirmed that China is currently trying to break through quickly in the entire chip industry chain.

“They used graphene heat dissipation film to bypass our ban on high-purity silicon.” The National Security Advisor pointed to the battery module in the disassembly report, “And this VC heat sink with a bionic leaf vein structure. Their patent application was actually six months earlier than ours. God knows how many good things they have hidden. But before the sanctions, they didn’t have such technology at all!”

The commander-in-chief frowned and asked in confusion, “Are you saying that they have been prepared for a long time and even anticipated this day?”

……

……

For the first time, the design lab at Apple headquarters was fully lit up late at night.

Cook, with white hair, stroked the S10 engineering machine in his hand. The subtle matte texture on the magnesium-aluminum alloy frame reminded him of the design philosophy of the Jobs era.

Suddenly, the orange logo on the back of the phone rippled, and the AI ​​assistant automatically popped up a reminder: “It is detected that the Orange Smart Glasses are not connected. Do you want to enable air gesture operation?”

“Sir, the benchmark results are out.” The chief engineer handed over the iPad, and the Geekbench data on the screen made everyone gasp.

In the AI ​​reasoning test, the A12 Bionic chip scored 17% lower than Orange’s self-developed “Kunlun” chip.

Even more frightening is that when connected to a Wifi network, the S10’s file transfer speed is 2.3 times faster than the iPhone XS Max.

The iPhone XS Max is Apple’s new generation flagship model launched last summer.

“They have heterogeneously integrated the baseband and AI accelerator.” The hardware director pointed to the golden packaging layer on the X-ray scan. “These neural computing units are directly embedded next to the RF module. We can copy them, but we need to bypass the technical patents, which will take at least half a year.”

Cook couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed. “In half a year, our new phones were all on the market, and we didn’t have enough time to use them.”

Since there are apples, why do we have oranges?

Every year, Orange Technology gives Cook the feeling that it is stronger than the previous year.

In the past, Orange Technology was strong only in a single technology.

But now, the other party not only has strong products, but also has its own chips and its own ecosystem.

Once a complete ecosystem is built, it is almost like having the biggest trump card.

Cook frowned and turned to the legal director: “How is the import ban application to the ITC going?”

“I’m afraid it will be difficult. Their new assembly plant in Mexico will start production next week.” The legal director wiped the sweat off his forehead. “But I think you are worrying too much, boss. Even if the OOS system passes all GMS certification tests, it doesn’t matter if it uses Google GMS. No one can receive a device that can’t use Google GMS.”

“But… users can crack and bypass it!” Cook murmured.

At this moment, he looked at the display wall of Jobs’ hand-drawn design drafts.

Orange has brought him a lot of pressure over the years. If Orange phones had not been sanctioned now, perhaps his hometown in North America would have been stolen.

But Apple has fallen into a vicious circle where its products become less powerful with each generation.

How could he not hear the many complaints from users?

But unfortunately, it is very difficult for Apple to develop a new iPhone model that will impress people nowadays.

Even the Apple electric car that was intended to be launched with great fanfare faced many difficulties.

……

……

In the slums of Rio de Janeiro, the young boy Diego clutched the money he had saved from odd jobs and stared at the S10 demonstration video in the window.

In the picture, the mobile phone is translating an Indian dialect teaching video into Portuguese in real time, and the AI-generated problem-solving steps are overlaid on the photo of his worn-out exercise book.

……

……

In a second-hand store in Akihabara, Tokyo, owner Yamada looked at the recycling list in shock – 37 iPhone XS Max units had been sold today, and the latest one had only been unpacked for two days.

“The customer said she wanted to use this to exchange for a deposit on an Orange phone.” The clerk pointed at the girl in a Lolita dress in front of the counter, “She didn’t even ask how much the discount would be.”

Yamada nodded without being surprised and asked, “Which one?”

“It’s that little folding phone, the Pocket.”

“Didn’t you tell her that there is a shortage of goods everywhere? Our agents in China can’t even get the goods.”

“She said it can wait, as long as it arrives before her birthday next month.”

Yamada shook his head helplessly: “I’ll try.”

……

……

The same situation is happening all over the world.

Even though it has been sanctioned, Orange’s products are still very popular.

Especially the three flagship flagships of this generation.

The S series, X series and Pocket series, two of which are new forms that no one has seen before, are enough to attract consumers’ attention.

Can’t use Google GMS?

This is really not a problem.

There are a lot of guides on YouTube that teach people how to use Orange phones overseas, and they are really simple.

You just need to reset the country/region and select another country/region, and the Orange phone will perform some basic settings and adaptations based on this country/region.

Finally, reset it.

If you want to access other applications in the Google Play Store, you can also download applications such as APKpure or Gspace. These applications can simulate a mobile phone environment with a Google framework, allowing consumers to use the various functions in the Google Play Store normally.

So strictly speaking, Google’s sanctions were in vain.

In the past, ordinary people did not understand how to crack it, which led to a sharp drop in Huawei’s overseas sales.

But Orange phones are different. Their new styles and new features prompt people to search for related content online.

Take the initiative to crack it. (End of this chapter)
