Rebuild 2005

Although there have been rumors and preparations for a long time, after the news was confirmed, it still caused certain waves in various aspects, including many people within the company who were baffled by this matter.

What about free trade as promised?

Two days later, on the 29th, Wei Qingfan went to Shenzhen for a business trip. After that, he made a special trip to the headquarters of ZTE and Huawei.

On the same day, Gu Shi Ci Company held a press conference in Beijing. On behalf of the company, Tang Tingyue announced that he would sue the U.S. government to the U.S. Supreme Court on the grounds that this ban was unconstitutional.

"Fuck, so rigid?"

"Boss Wei is amazing!"

"Can we still sue?"

"What's the point of this?"

"You'll definitely lose, but it's fun to sue."

"Even if you know you're destined to lose, you still have to show your sword."

"Won't this usher in greater revenge?"

“I feel comfortable, buy a Taiwan Dianniao to support me”

……

Wei Qingfan dared to do this because he knew very well that no matter whether he did this or not, or how he did it, it would not change the development and progress of things.

Moreover, according to time, they are already targeting ZTE, and the priority of ancient poetry should be after ZTE and Huawei.

In this case, it is better to use this matter to publicize it, even if it is just to express bad breath.

But these are all small things. The real big thing is to prepare for the disaster. With this ban, he will not be considered "crazy" if he does some things. At most, he will be thought to be overreacting.

He was the first to arrive at the ZTE headquarters. The other party was obviously baffled and his attitude was quite enthusiastic. However, after hearing what he said about his purpose, he obviously lost interest.

Wei Qingfan knew that this was a normal situation, but he was still a little disappointed. He politely left, and then went to Huawei and met Ren Zhengfei as he wished.

Everyone here was equally shocked by his arrival, and even more surprised after hearing his purpose. The two chatted alone in the office for more than an hour, and then had dinner together at noon. After the meal, Wei Qingfan returned to the capital.

Almost no one, including their respective senior officials, knew the complete conversation between the two.

However, half a month later, news began to appear on the Internet that Gushici Company was about to cooperate with Huawei. The two parties would conduct "patent cross-licensing" and Gushici Company might develop its own baseband.

This cooperation progressed relatively slowly. It was not until Jinjiu 6 was released before the National Day holiday that the two parties truly reached cooperation and signed a cross-licensing agreement.

Subsequently, Gushi's 2016 autumn product global launch conference was held. This was the first time that Gushi held a press conference at its new headquarters "Star Ring". It was the last joint launch of Leica. The "Star Ring" design appeared on Gushi's mobile phone for the first time.

The main updates for the Jinjiu 6 series mobile phones are:
The processor is upgraded to Taibai A6, which improves performance and greatly increases power consumption;

The image is improved, the standard version is upgraded to 2x telephoto; the collector's version is upgraded to 3x telephoto, and the 2x digital zoom image quality is improved, making it highly usable;

Small functions such as air gestures and constant gaze on the screen;

The self-developed "Guan Zhong" file system improves random reading performance by an average of 20%, further improves system fluency, and effectively solves the problem of mobile phone lag under low memory conditions;

Privacy and security management have been upgraded to completely prohibit root permissions that should not exist on the phone, further restricting applications from obtaining permissions.

Can be used for screen mirroring with tablets and laptops;

There is a ring of magnets built into the back cover, which can be used with a charging cable with magnetic suction function to make wireless charging more convenient;

In addition, ultrabooks have been regularly upgraded, and the ultimate tablet has been equipped with a 90Hz high refresh rate, and the first generation of Gushi wireless headphones have been released, which connect immediately after opening the cover and feature pop-up animations;

……

After the press conference, the two small functions that ordinary consumers perceive the most and are most interested in are the continuous screen and air gestures. The most exciting thing for FamilyMart users is undoubtedly the "screen projection".

For some professionals, the most important product of the entire conference is undoubtedly the "Guan Zhong" file system. Before they got the product, a large group of people were interpreting it. After getting it, many self-media quickly taking the test.

In almost all tests, the Jiangjinjiu 6 series outperforms its Android counterparts, and is truly on par with iOS.

In actual use, when the storage of the phone is almost full, the experience of Gushi is obviously better than that of iOS, but almost no one will test it.

Just like Huawei originally released its self-developed EROFS super file system in 2019, no self-media has tested the file reading speed for a long time since other friends did not allow it to be tested.

I don’t know whether it was because I was robbed of my luck, or because the company was not as prosperous as it was in its original history and did not have more time to study. Xiaomi Mix, which many people in later generations call the "pioneer of full screen", was not released as scheduled.

Guci had no choice but to take over this task. On November 11, the fifteenth day of the tenth month of the lunar calendar, Xiayuan Festival, the Azolla 14 series mobile phone launch conference was held as scheduled.

After the release of Jianghong, Xu Shengyuan came on stage and brought Guci's new "Qinyuanchun" series of mobile phones. He proposed the "full screen" concept for the first time and released the first-generation Qinyuanchun mobile phone.

This phone cancels the "forehead" of the phone and places the camera on the chin. It looks a bit strange, but it has an indescribable visual impact.

After the press conference, unexpectedly no one paid attention to Azolla 5 series mobile phones, which were not originally intended for online consumers, but "Qinyuanchun" became well known to the majority of digital enthusiasts overnight.

This mobile phone is priced at 3999, which is by no means cheap. However, it is equipped with the same new generation Taibai A6 processor as the Jiangjinjiu 6 series, but the price is 6 lower than the standard version of the Jiangjinjiu 300 series. In addition, it is huge The morphological change has quickly become the new favorite of digital enthusiasts. The joke of "dry translation of ancient poems" began to circulate on the Internet.

However, although "Qinyuanchun" has a lot of buzz online, its actual sales volume is very small, with less than 200 million units in its entire life cycle, not even one-tenth of the Linjiangxian series.

Just like in history, this year, Samsung gave a gift to all its friends: Samsung Note7 exploded!
After the explosion, Samsung China began to implement different after-sales standards in the Bank of China, just like the miraculous operation in its history.

Samsung, which was originally in decline due to the rise of domestic mobile phone brands, has hammered the final nail in its head.

In the fourth quarter of 2016, Gushi and Apple almost equally shared the domestic high-end smartphone market, with Apple still having the advantage, with a market share as high as 45%;

For the first time, the proportion of ancient poetry reached 40%.

The reason why there is such a big breakthrough is that Samsung has made a contribution, and Apple has also made a great contribution, because this year’s iPhone 7 was really too disappointing.

It's not that the product is bad, it's that it hasn't been upgraded at all.

Compared with before, Gu Shi's "air gestures" and "continuous gaze on the screen", coupled with the substantial improvement in battery life brought about by the power consumption optimization of the A6, can beat the iPhone in many aspects.

Of course, it is difficult to defeat the iPhone, because no matter how powerful the hardware is, it is impossible to defeat Apple. If you want to defeat Apple, you can only start with software.

From the day Gushici Company was founded, Wei Qingfan's goal has been software. In recent years, he has indeed done better than Huawei in history, because Huawei has been taking detours for a long time. Later, it became a "fruit fan" After his bloodline awakened, he slowly returned to the right path.

You can never beat Apple if you only roll up hardware!

Apple users, how many of them bought the A series for its unparalleled performance?

How many people simply pay for an IOS system that is smooth, stable, has no ads, and does not download messy software inexplicably?
Of course, Android manufacturers and practitioners are not fools. They roll hardware because hardware is the easiest to roll and easy to promote, but software is rolled...

Not to look down on anyone, not to mention in front of Apple, even in front of Huawei, they are not even qualified to sit on the table.

As for Huawei, even though it is a unique presence among domestic manufacturers, it is just a younger brother in front of Google, Apple, and Microsoft.

After the Spring Festival of 2017, major market research institutions successively launched the 2016 smartphone market report. Although it lost the U.S. market, Gushici Company still surpassed Apple with a total sales volume of 2 million units by 1.9 million units, becoming the second in the world. Big smartphone manufacturer.

Moreover, the gap with Samsung has further narrowed to less than 4000 million units.

After the news came out, coupled with the news that it was banned from sales last year, the ancient poetry company has become a source of glory for the country among ordinary people, and its brand influence has been further enhanced.

At the same time, the backlash of "patriotic marketing" is also brewing, and many people are disgusted. Wei Qingfan has actually been trying to avoid this kind of thing, but found that it is no longer something he can avoid if he wants to avoid it.

When everyone thinks that you are bringing glory to the country, it doesn’t matter what you think or say. It’s just like some brands want to put the label of “bringing glory to the country” but they can’t get it right no matter how hard they try.

However, the ancient poetry brand has become a trend, and these are not so important. Relatively speaking, stepping up preparations to "overcome the disaster" is the most important thing.

On the one hand, Wei Qingfan stepped up preparations to "de-A" the supply chain, and on the other hand, he worked hard to facilitate the import of various future "strategic" materials. The industries, companies, and products involved were too many and complicated, which made him overwhelmed.

Moreover, the biggest difficulty is that no one understands what he wants to do, even within the company. They all feel that Mr. Wei is suffering from "persecution paranoia".

Fortunately, "Mr. Wei" has become a legend and a brand name both inside and outside the company. He works hard to push things forward, even if it takes a little effort, he can still push things forward.

After the incident, even the people above him noticed the incident. In early summer, relevant leaders had a wide-ranging and in-depth conversation with him.

At the same time, the company has been secretly preparing for more than four years and is finally ready to launch a big move that has been brewing for a long time.

In late August, when the Internet was discussing the new iPhone in September and the leaked video of iPhone

As soon as the news came out, it immediately swept the entire Internet, including external networks, which were also discussing the matter.

"We all know that the Gushijiujiu series mobile phones are basically released in October. For us, this time is not fixed. This is because it is released according to Chinese festivals. China has its own calendar. Every year, the Chinese calendar The ninth day of September is their Double Ninth Festival. According to tradition, Chinese people will climb high and look far away on this day..."

A blogger on YouTube analyzed and explained, "Wei Qingfan is a very sentimental person. He set the wine series mobile phone on this day, and has maintained this tradition since then. In the past six years, there has been only one exception. !
"That was in 2013. Gu Shi changed the time of the press conference and held it before the iPhone 5S. Later we found out that the Jijinjiu 3 had the same fingerprint recognition function as the iPhone 5S. Wei Qingfan wanted to promote this earlier. Function……

"I'm looking forward to it. This year Wei Qingfan will once again 'jump the gun' on what features he wants to release. I'm very much looking forward to this surprise!
"Oh, one last thing, September 9th is also a traditional Chinese festival, called the Ghost Festival. On this day, Chinese people worship their ancestors..."

……

"Brothers, the big one is coming!"

Chen Xiaoming also specially released a video to analyze this matter, "The last time Gushi held a press conference in advance, it brought fingerprint recognition function to the entire mobile phone industry. Now, let alone flagship-level phones, even [-]-yuan phones have begun to come with fingerprint recognition as standard. Okay, this thing is really useful, right?
"This year, Mr. Wei held a press conference in advance again. I don't know what features he wants to grab. According to the usual analysis, I guess Apple and Gushi have done the same thing. Mr. Wei wants to publicize it early, so he can only rush it... …

"The launch of the Gushi mobile phone is usually in October, because Apple launches in September according to the Gregorian calendar, and Gushi launches in September according to the lunar calendar. There is no way. However, if the launch is late, the same function will be promoted early, and you If you promote it late, you will be the first to try it. If you are innovative, you will be plagiarizing.

"Based on the analysis of previous years, we can summarize two rules. First, if Gushi and Apple release the same functions or products in the same year, such as global color management in 2015 and wireless headphones in 2016, these products will be When the function is not that important, Gu Shi will not change the launch time. If it is later than Apple, it will be later, it doesn’t matter;
“Second, if Gushi was much earlier than Apple, for example, Gushi supported counterfeiting in 2015 when it launched Jiujiu 5, and used solid buttons that used vibration to simulate the pressing effect. The iPhone only used the same solution in 2016, then There is no need to rush the release.

"Only when the released functions and innovations are very large and are released in the same year, Mr. Wei will change the release time, such as fingerprint recognition in 2013... Therefore, based on these two laws and the experience of 2013, I can tell you clearly that this year’s press conference will definitely have big surprises!

"Brothers, the big one is really coming, prepare to save money!"

Chen Xiaoming has been a full-time digital reviewer for several years, and his income has been rising steadily, but in fact his enthusiasm has been being worn away. This time he is really excited and excited.

Although he didn’t know what the surprise was, he vaguely guessed that it might be related to the leaked video of iPhone X.

Maybe I didn’t get enough rest and stayed up late, so I didn’t feel very well after I came back. I had a cold and fever two days ago, and yesterday was the worst. The symptoms were the same as last time. The good news is that it’s probably not Yang. The even better news is that I’m much better today and I should be fine. Two more replies.
