Chapter 1603 - Prepare For The News Conference

Pei Qian looked at the huge game router after looking at the new cell phone.

He had to admit that it was very eye-catching.

Its shape was very exaggerated. It looked like a huge pyramid base. It was about 20 centimeters in length and width, and was nearly 10 centimeters in thickness. From the side, it looked like a ladder on all four sides. It was in the shape of a staircase. There were two grooves in the middle that hid various sockets.

There were many glowing lights on the platform at the top, and eight huge skylines around it.

It was baring its fangs and brandishing its claws like an octopus.

There were various sockets hidden in the grooves between the octopus skyline, including the USB interface, power interface, internet connection interface, and so on.

The position of the light drive was hidden very deeply. It was on the side. You had to put down the two vertical skylines to insert the light drive.

Most people would think that it was just a huge router if they were to plug the internet connection with this fellow again. They would definitely not associate it with the game machine.

Pei Qian was amazed. This thing was exactly the same as the product he had imagined!

He weighed it a little. It was quite heavy.

That was normal. After all, it was a game console. How could it not be heavy with a high-end router?

There was a matching controller next to the main computer. This controller might still be a distance away from the top controller in the market, but the cost control was not bad. What’s more, the spinning top, back buttons, and other functions were all there. The overall hand sensitivity was also considered good. It was not bad to be able to achieve this level.

After all, the controllers of those large manufacturers had been developed with a lot of money and a lot of patents. It was not realistic for the domestically-produced controllers to catch up in a short period of time.

However, it was not easy for this meticulously-made controller to be comparable to the standard of foreign manufacturers.

On top of that, the controllers of other large factories could also be connected to this system unit to be used normally. This also provided players with more options. If they bought the controller-free version, the price could be cheaper.

Chang You introduced. “Boss Pei, I heard that almost all of the navigation games in the incubation base of the Destitution Plan have been developed. They have been developed before the news conference. Then, it should not be a problem for them to be released when the router is officially released.”

Pei Qian nodded. He felt that the in-built game in the incubation base of the Destitution Plan should not be bad. After all, Qiu Hong was the one leading the team. What’s more, there were outstanding independent game designers like Wu Zhicheng.

However, no matter what, this was a main computer’s carrier game. It was definitely slightly inferior to the number of people in the incubation base.

After all, the game console was on a completely different level from other digital products. There was only hope of success if it was done to the extreme in all aspects. Pei Qian felt that he did not have to worry too much for the time being.

Chang You asked, “Boss Pei, how should we hold the news conference for the game router?”

Pei Qian smiled easily and said, “Isn’t that simple? Just introduce it as the parameter of the router.”

“There’s no need to emphasize the functions of the game. You just need to briefly say that this equipment can be placed in the living room and integrate some entertainment activities.”

“By the way, what’s its price?”

Chang You said, “4,999 yuan. The game console’s price is about 3,999 yuan, and the router’s price is about 1,000 yuan.”

“After all, the configuration of this system unit is better.”

“What’s more, this is the result of a small amount of subsidies according to your requirements, Boss Pei. Only by producing a large number of goods can we ensure that we will not incur losses.”

“Of course, it’s not important to Tengda Corporation whether the game console makes money or not. The main thing is to set it up first. We can slowly use the game to make money in the future.”

Pei Qian nodded slightly. This price was not bad to him. It should be able to dissuade many players.

That was because foreign game consoles were basically in the price range of about 4,000 yuan. What’s more, game consoles were not profitable to begin with.

The price of Tengda’s router basically had no advantage.

Compared to computers, especially laptops, this was just an entry-level price. However, there was still a huge difference between game consoles and computers.

Many people felt that computers could be used for work or other things, while game consoles could only be used for games. There was a clear difference in their usage.

What’s more, most of the young people in the country who liked to play games did not have their own living room or television. Therefore, compared to the game consoles, products like game consoles were more in line with their needs. This was also the reason why online games and cell phone games developed rapidly in the country while standalone games had always been dispirited.

Pei Qian felt that a portion of the router machine might be sold. After all, Tengda had too many die-hard fans. However, the possibility of it becoming popular was negligible.

At that thought, Pei Qian stood up in satisfaction. “Alright, I’ve seen both products. There’s no big problem. Just prepare for the news conference as I said.”

…

…

July 10th, Wednesday.

Jingzhou International Exhibition Center.

Otto Technologies’ previous news conferences had been held in Jingzhou’s five-star hotel. The venue itself was considered luxurious, but it was still lacking in face.

This time, they had moved to Jingzhou’s international exhibition center. The scene was several times more impressive.

At Otto Technologies’ new news conference this time, the venue was about 8,000 square meters in area and more than 10 meters in height. The arranged floor space could be said to be full.

Chang You was even a little worried. It would be very awkward if the audience was not satisfied.

He could gift tickets, but he had to consider the situation where he could not even give tickets.

On the day of the news conference, Chang You was shocked to find that the venue was full again. There were still no empty seats.

Obviously, most people were here to watch Vice-President Chang perform.

Otto Technologies’ new products might not be outstanding every time, and not everyone would be satisfied every time. However, it had to be said that Otto Technologies was definitely the only company with the ability to perform at the news conference. What’s more, it surpassed all other companies.

The news conference for more than an hour was more satisfying than listening to a crosstalk.

What’s more, Otto Technologies’ news conference was even more exciting than Xiangcheng’s. The burden was definitely beyond everyone’s expectations. Ordinary people would not think that Otto Technologies would bring out some ridiculous new products.

The Fully-Automated Smart Bickering Machine and smart fitness drying rack were enough to make people laugh when introducing products.

What’s more, the key was that the burden of crosstalk was fake. However, after Otto Technologies finished shaking off the burden, it would really sell the product. What’s more, it would be a mass-produced version.

Everyone immediately felt that this news conference was worth it considering that they could still hear cross talk during the news conference and see these ridiculous products become real.

Chang You looked at the crowd and sighed. “If I had known that it would be so popular, I would have raised the price of the tickets.”

“We might as well cancel the gifts in the future and only give a portion of the gifts to the media. It’s not too much to hold a concert at our popular venue.”

Jiang Yuan knew that Chang You was joking, but he still said, “Forget it, forget it. This is not in line with the Tengda spirit at all. Boss Pei will definitely not agree.”

He looked below the stage as he spoke. “Boss Chang, do you think Boss Pei is here today?”

Chang You shook his head. “I’m not sure. Boss Pei has always been elusive. Who knows? However, even if Boss Pei doesn’t come to the venue, he will definitely watch the live-stream. He has to be on his guard. He cannot mess up!”

“It’s almost time. Get ready to go.”

Jiang Yuan nodded and finally tidied up his appearance.

…

The larger tech media in the country were basically present at the news conference. In addition, many fans of Tengda Corporation rushed over from Jingzhou or other providers.

He wanted to see what new tricks Otto Technologies would come up with this time.

Some reporters from the tech media guessed:

“I wonder what new product Otto Technologies will release this time? I’m looking forward to it.”

“The most ridiculous thing about Otto Technologies is that there are not some new products that make people feel that they are putting on a show at every news conference. Instead, they achieved success after mass-producing these new products.”

“I heard some insider information this time. It’s said to be a foldable screen cell phone and a new smart equipment.”

“A new foldable screen cell phone? Didn’t Shenhua just release one? Otto Technologies actually released it as well. Can their technology level already compete with Shenhua?”

“I’m not sure, but I’m not optimistic about it. That’s because the technology required for foldable screens cell phones is too high. Shenhua only managed to produce it after a few years. Many technologies have patents. Didn’t you see that other big-name manufacturers did not make plans to foldable screens? I think Otto Technologies is probably very difficult as a new company.”

“That’s right. If Otto Technologies only produced a relatively immature folding screen plan, it would be better not to publish it. As a cutting edge technology, the price of the foldable screen would definitely be very high. It would be targeted at rich people. This group of people would not take an immature folding screen product to show off.”

“Who knows? Perhaps Otto Technologies can use its reputation in the high-end field to pave a way out?”

“Indeed! The core competitiveness of Otto Technologies is not in the accumulation of technology, but in their imagination. As long as their imagination is outstanding enough this time, they should be able to satisfy their fans.”

“As long as Tengda’s fans can buy it, the sales of this cell phone should not be too bad.”

Everyone was guessing what kind of foldable cell phone Tengda Corporation would release.

However, it was obvious that Shenhua Corporation’s foldable screen cell phone was in front of them. Everyone was sweating for Otto Technologies.

What’s more, Shenhua Corporation’s foldable screen cell phone had already finished its news conference. It showed the various technological breakthroughs of the foldable screen cell phone. The price segment had also been announced.

Everyone unanimously thought that there should not be anyone in the market who could compete with it in the field of foldable screens. Otto Technologies might be a late star but its technical reserves and research and development strength were still lacking. It was too risky to fight Shenhua Corporation head-on.

Shenhua Corporation’s foldable cell phone might have been released after the news conference but it had only been officially released in the past two days. Wasn’t that equivalent to clashing with Otto Technologies’ cell phone?

Of course, both companies were domestic companies and should obtain support. However, support still depended on the products.

The lights in the stadium gradually dimmed as everyone discussed.
