Chapter 339

U.S.

Apple headquarters.

now.

The new CEO is under a lot of pressure. When he first took office, he was faced with such a situation. The brakes could not be stopped, so he could only bite the bullet and continue to move forward.

He glanced at the Apple 4 and Espier on the table.

truth.

He also thinks that Linghang's mobile phone is more attractive, and its running speed is about the same, but it is not good in terms of appearance and some functions of the system.

Such as theme.

Such as beauty.

Such as rubber sleeves.

…

In the case of similar performance, once the small advantages are magnified, a gap will form.

I want to make a big change, after all, this is the product of the predecessor.

But the board of directors would definitely not let him, otherwise, he would not be allowed to take office.

In fact.

The new CEO also thought about hacking Pilot in other ways.

can be found.

There is no place to talk.

Screen.

processor.

camera.

…

All are products of international giants. If you use this black home, those giants will be willing? After all the calculations, in terms of the system, it can be hacked.

But the effect is already clear.

Didn't hit it, but also helped the altar.

The single-day sales of more than one million units made people's eyes red with envy.

No one thought that the consumption power of the Huaxia market was so strong.

Here.

Directly in the other party's home market, forcing the other party's size to be bigger, this is so... so annoying!

Also in the evening of the second day.

Pilot's sales data came out again. On the second day, the total global sales volume was 980,000 units, a little less than the first day, but still a huge number.

so far.

Plus the original half a million copies.

now.

The total sales volume of Linghang mobile phones has reached 2.84 million, which is only 160,000 short of 3 million. It is estimated that it will surpass it after waking up.

And tomorrow morning, it will be the launch event of Apple 4.

CEO: I'm under a lot of pressure!

. . .

the next day.

morning.

It's night in China, but it's morning in America.

San Francisco.

Moscone West Convention and Exhibition Center, where Apple 4 was released, a large number of media rushed to the venue early in the morning. After registration, they entered the venue.

"I don't know what the new product will look like."

"It shouldn't disappoint. After all, Jobs is the leader of the project. It's a pity that he didn't release it."

"Uh-huh!"

"..."

The reporters were looking forward to it.

The only downside is that Jobs didn't come, but an unfamiliar CEO.

at the same time.

This press conference was also broadcast live online.

"expect!"

"Our products are definitely better than Pilot."

"..."

The live broadcast room was very lively, many people came in early, and there was a real-time speech area on the right, frantically swiping subtitles.

finally.

Wait until the release part.

"Gentlemen and ladies...good morning!"

"I am......"

"This is Apple's new product."

As he said that, the CEO took out the iPhone 4, and the following wow puppet applauded very cooperatively to set off the atmosphere, but the eyes of each one were a little strange.

Do not know why.

I always feel that this phone is so small.

Pilot comes to mind.

moment.

The balance of aesthetics has been tilted directly: it seems that Pilot looks better.

"3.5 inches, 960x640 pixels."

"..."

"Capacitive screen, supports multi-touch."

"..."

"iOS 4.0 system."

"..."

"Five megapixels on the rear, 300,000 pixels on the front."

"..."

The CEO continues to introduce functions, and the following are also very cooperative.

only.

online.

The group of people watching the live broadcast were not so cooperative.

"That's it?"

"It feels like I watched a fake Apple conference, what is this!"

"The product is so-so."

"Indeed, it doesn't feel as good as Pilot's mobile phone."

"disappointment!"

"..."

Due to the fact that it is not nearby, and there is a problem with network delay, one card after another, it does not look real.

As far as the outline of Apple 4 is concerned, it is really not amazing.

"If it was a few days ago, I still thought it was good, but suddenly I knew there was Linghang. After looking at it, I found that the iPhone 4 was on the edge of my eyes, so I lost to Linghang."

"I agree!"

"The same screen size as the iPhone 3, nothing changed at all."

"What about innovation? Why didn't you see it?"

"..."

A large number of people stood up and expressed their dissatisfaction.

moment.

The rhythm was brought up.

disappointment!

After waiting for a long time, you just show me this? What a mess!

In the past few days, many people inevitably checked the specific situation of Espier. The startup videos of many websites even had tens of millions of views.

After reading it, I feel really good.

I thought that Apple would create another glories, surprise people, and lead the way.

Which material.

But it is such an 'unremarkable' thing.

If you want to do this, if Jobs announces it, we may support it.

But if a new CEO launches a product that is not under his leadership and does not meet expectations, what is there to support?

Go home, wash and sleep.

"Withdraw, it's boring!"

"Goodbye, this Apple phone, I won't buy it anyway."

"Uh-huh!"

"Use this kind of thing to fool us? Let's wait for the next Apple phone."

"..."

Many people closed the live broadcast room, what to do.

. . .

the other side.

The Jobs family, seeing the public opinion on the Internet, was happy to be liked, but disappointed.

No matter what, that product was also developed by itself.

Now there is a serious problem with market acceptance, and I feel very bad.

but.

But I don't regret it.

An imperfect product, a product that was overtaken by others at the very beginning, if I released it myself, I would really feel sorry for those who supported him.

Now, we can only wait and see what happens and wait for the result.

. . .

on site.

The press conference continues.

on stage.

More to say.

The more embarrassing the CEO is, if it is released before the pilot phone, many functions can be said to be the first, and a large number of firsts will form an X pattern.

And now.

Navigator is already one step ahead in many ways.

If you dare to say words such as first, most, and innovation, you will definitely be hated.

therefore.

In terms of words, the entire press conference almost turned into reading the function manual. Not only was it weird to hear it live, but the live broadcast audience also felt very boring.

Is this an Apple event?

innovation?

personality?

Perfect?

experience?

…

Where have they all gone?

Changing the CEO, changing the brand slogan? That can't be so fast!

finally.

The press conference was coming to an end, and a wave of pre-sales was requested, and the CEO stepped down in a hurry.

The pre-sale on Apple's official website was also opened as soon as the live broadcast started.

Send the reporter away.

"How?" the CEO asked his staff.

"good."

The vice president in charge of marketing said happily, "Up to now, the pre-sale has exceeded 80,000 units. If this trend continues, it may sell hundreds of thousands today."

"That's good!" The CEO breathed a sigh of relief.

Hundreds of thousands.

It can also be handed over to the board of directors.

only.

This growth rate began to slow down in the following time.

"what happened?"

Back at the company, the CEO asked urgently.

"Well, a lot of orders were placed at the beginning of the press conference, but the response to the press conference may not be very good, and the number of people who booked after that began to decrease."

"..."

The CEO is very depressed. I don't want to take the blame for this. It's very heavy.

. . .

China.

Seeing the pre-sale of Apple 4, Shu Fu was not surprised at all.

For one thing, there is no blessing from Jobs.

Secondly, the original innovation of the Apple 4 has become lacklustre, with the leading jewels ahead.

at last.

The entire press conference was really lacklustre. The CEO was simply reading the instruction manual, unlike the former leader Qiao, who was super confident throughout the whole process.

The combination of each reason directly leads to the effect of the press conference.

previous life.

The sales of Apple 4 on the first day exceeded one million units. This time, it would be good to have 400,000 units. This is also the reason for the support of many Apple fans.

Everyone has been waiting for so long, so concentrate on buying.

Next, no surprises, new diving was added every day.

. . .

The same is true.

the next day.

The first day sales of Apple 4 came out, a total of 370,000 units, worse than Apple's previous generation of mobile phones, and some media really couldn't find a point to brag about.

European and American netizens even made fun of it, calling it "the most embarrassing press conference in Apple's history!" "
