Chapter 674: iPhone 6 is unpopular, Xing Yi is deified!
The development of "Honkai Impact 3D" began at the beginning of last year.

At the beginning, there were disagreements within the miHoYo team. People led by Mr. Cai decided to invest all of the hundreds of millions of revenue from "Honkai Impact 3rd" into the research and development of "Honkai Impact 3D" to make a D mobile game.

Another partner, Jin Cheng, was against going all in and wanted to distribute the profits as dividends!

There were huge differences between the two sides, and the development of "Honkai Impact 3D" also encountered problems at one point.

In the end, it was Mr. Cai who approached Wang Yi and asked him to accept the premium on Jincheng’s shares, and then fully support miHoYo to start the full development of "Honkai Impact 3D".

At that time, Mr. Cai and others were unsure and initially planned to make a general 3D mobile game instead of the ceiling of 3D mobile games.

These days, mobile phones have poor performance and low configuration. If they are made too well, they can’t be used at all!
But Wang Yi was firmly opposed to shoddy production and asked miHoYo to go all out to make "Honkai Impact 3D" the ceiling of 3D mobile games!
He also said that when it goes online next year, it will definitely be able to run many devices!

With Wang Yi's promise, the miHoYo team was completely relieved and began to let go and go all out to make "Honkai Impact 3D" the ceiling.

One of Wang Yi’s main goals is to use good money to drive out bad money!
Use "Honkai Impact 3D", the ceiling of 3D mobile games, to directly kill all the junk phones and junk chips from Apple, Samsung, Qualcomm, etc.!

Let all consumers see clearly which brand is the real performance monster, the real king of the year, and the most powerful chip!
This is much more effective than running points!
MiHoYo did not disappoint Wang Yi, and "Honkai Impact 3D" did not disappoint Wang Yi!
Samsung performance gate, Motorola performance gate, Qualcomm performance gate, Apple performance gate... broke out one after another!
This prosperous era happened just as Wang Yi had expected!

Wang Yi even anticipated the dog-eat-dog dynamics among the major brands!
The result is also beautiful.

The sales of Xingyi mobile phones have surged, the sales of Wujie mobile phones have skyrocketed, and even the Kunpeng processors are hot-selling around the world!

Even though Kunpeng 910 still uses the 28nm process, many competitors still gave up on Qualcomm's next-generation flagship chip Snapdragon 20 using the 810nm process!

Before Xingyi Semiconductor achieves a breakthrough in 14nm process, Kunpeng 910, a 28nm veteran, will have the mission of connecting the past and the future and will have to compete with competitors' 20nm processors or even 14nm processors!
Originally, this was difficult, extremely difficult, because the process differences were too great.

Even if it is achieved, third-party manufacturers and users will not believe it and will question it.

The simplest thing is that Wang Yi said that although Kunpeng 910 is 28 nanometers, it is very strong, stronger than the 20 nanometers of competitors, and even comparable to the 14 nanometer new flagship of competitors, but not many people believe it!

Some things cannot be achieved by just talking about them, nor can they be proven by running scores.

It is difficult to perfectly visualize the strength of performance.

In particular, many users have limited knowledge of chips, and it is even more difficult for them to believe that 28nm chips can outperform 20nm chips.

But with "Honkai Impact 3D" and the performance gate incident, everything changed!

Everyone has seen the weakness of Qualcomm, Apple, and Samsung, but they have also seen the strength of Xingyi Semiconductor, Xingyi mobile phones, and Wujie mobile phones!

"Honkai Impact 3D" has 1080P high-definition graphics and can be played on the Kunpeng version of the xphone 2 released two years ago, but it cannot be played on the new flagships of Samsung, Motorola, and Apple that were just released this year!

This is the best proof and the most direct proof!
In this way, Kunpeng chip and Xingyi mobile phone will be completely deified and fully deified!

This is also Wang Yi's original intention to fully support miHoYo and make "Honkai Impact 3D" the ceiling of 3D mobile games!

Just use "Honkai Impact 3D" to kill all your competitors!
Only Xingyi mobile phones, Wujie mobile phones, and third-party customers using Kunpeng chips are left!

Although these customers do not have the XOS system and 64-bit bonus, their flagship phones equipped with Kunpeng 906 can run "Honkai Impact 3D" smoothly with high graphics.

Even the previous generation Kunpeng 902 model can run smoothly at the highest image quality after purchasing the chip tuning service from Xingyi Technology!
This is the power of the Kunpeng chip and the power of Xingyi Technology's algorithm optimization.

On the contrary, without the tuning of Xingyi Technology, even if you buy Kunpeng 902, the game will still be stuck when playing with the highest picture quality.

For the same processor, good tuning can bring out 100 points of performance, while negative optimization may only bring out 50 points of performance.

Just like the new Snapdragon 820 phones in the previous life, with the same chip and the same memory configuration, when playing "Honkai Impact 3D", there will be a difference of more than frames between models of different brands!

The key is the degree of optimization.

Chip tuning and optimization is a hard-core technology that 99% of mobile phone manufacturers, including chip manufacturers, are unable to master.

It is for this reason that Kunpeng processors of the same level, not counting the 32-bit bonus, have the potential to surpass rivals by one generation under the tuning of Xingyi Technology.

Models equipped with the XOS system, with the added bonus of 64-bit, can surpass competitors by two or even three levels.

However, in the past, this performance gap was difficult to quantify. Basically, any game that Kunpeng 902 can play can also be played by Snapdragon 801.

But now it’s different. With the release of "Honkai Impact 3D", chip performance was directly divided into different levels.

"Chairman, you used Honkai Impact 3D to quantify the performance of chips and mobile phones. It is a stroke of genius. Whether it can be played or not, whether it can run or not, it is all clear at a glance. Now everyone knows how powerful the mobile phone is."

Zhu Changlin was very excited: "Our Xingyi mobile phone, Wujie mobile phone, and Kunpeng chip all stand out!"

"Looking at our competitors, it's a collective tragedy. Especially Apple, which is probably in a state of panic right now. Hahahaha."

Wang Yi was not so optimistic: "At present, it seems that we have maximized our profits. We can say that we have won. But our competitors will not give up so easily!"

Zhu Changlin's face became serious. "That's right. When the performance scandal broke out, Samsung, Google, Qualcomm, and Apple started to attack each other and shirk responsibility. I'm afraid they will band together to whitewash themselves."

"That's right, this is what we need to pay attention to. We have finally gained a huge advantage with the help of Honkai Impact 3D, a crushing advantage, and we must not let our competitors easily turn the tables."

Wang Yi said: "You must be well prepared, simulate the possible reactions of major friendly companies in advance, and prepare countermeasures. The business world is like a battlefield. We will not fight a battle we are not sure of, and we must not be too excited when we have a huge advantage and be counterattacked by the other party."

"Yes, I will convene a high-level meeting right away and pay close attention to the reactions of friendly companies."

Zhu Changlin responded quickly.

The reason why Xingyi Technology can be so successful is largely due to its strategic planning and advance layout!

As a reborn person, Wang Yi has always been prepared and has the habit of making arrangements in advance to deal with and avoid possible crises and challenges.

However, Xingyi Technology is a large company with too many business units, and Wang Yi has limited energy. It is impossible for him to do everything by himself, which is unrealistic.

Therefore, we are also intentionally cultivating the management team of Xingyi Technology to establish the habit and mindset of strategizing and making arrangements in advance.

In this way, if we think two steps further and make more plans each time, maybe the other party will really do it, and then Xingyi Technology will reach the atmosphere and will be able to deal with it with ease.

Zhu Changlin acted decisively and promptly convened senior management and the intelligence team to analyze the current situation and make various contingency plans.

Wang Yi was not disappointed and he actually came up with some interesting back-up plans!

Apple headquarters.

Cook's roar made everyone in the conference room's scalps tingle.

The secretary guarding outside the door was trembling with fear!
This time, Apple’s crisis is too great, and Cook is under even greater pressure!

If things go wrong, it might just sink into the sea and become food for the fish!

"iPhone performance issue: iPhone 5S cannot play Honkai Impact 3D at low quality!"

"Great! The melon eaters are eating our own apples!"

"Now the sales volume of iPhone 5s has dropped to the bottom, and users all over the world have applied for refunds without any reason. Even users whose refunds have exceeded the period without any reason have united to protect their rights and asked us to recall all iPhone 5s and 5C!"

“理由就是iPhone 5s和5C不如999的无界2代，连《崩坏3D》低画质都玩不了。人家999的无界2代还能流畅中等画质！”

"What do you think we should do?"

"How to deal with it? Recall or not?"

“To respond or not to respond?”

Faced with Cook's questioning, everyone lowered their heads, not knowing how to respond.

Cook's expression became even uglier. "You are all fat and big-eared. You usually talk a lot and give advice. But when you encounter a problem, you just pretend to be dead and say nothing. What's the point of having a bunch of you?"

"Apple offers you such high salaries and such good benefits, just to make you silent when faced with a crisis?"

Seeing that Cook's scolding was getting more and more unpleasant, someone finally spoke up:

"Chairman, although our iPhone 5s sales have been cut in half, we have still sold more than million units worldwide."

"If we have to recall them, we have to recall all of them. We definitely can't bear such a large volume."

"Yes, Chairman, you must not recall me. Absolutely not."

Cook nodded and said: "We can't recall the products. But now with the Apple performance scandal, so many users are collectively seeking their rights. How do we respond?"

"This..." Everyone fell silent again.

Normally, you can still fight against the wind, but how do you fight against this kind of wind that is beyond the scope?
Can't fight!
At this time, a vice president spoke up: "It is indeed difficult to respond, so why don't we respond at all?" "That makes sense. Playing dead is the best strategy now. Samsung, Google, and Qualcomm all did the same thing before. They also played dead and didn't respond."

"It's different. They are playing dead and not responding in order to drag their competitors into the water, share the pressure for themselves, and divert public attention."

"Samsung dragged Motorola into the water, Google dragged Qualcomm into the water, and Qualcomm, this shameless person, dragged us, Apple, into the water!"

"Now the world's attention and firepower are focused on us. What do you think we should do?"

“Can we do the same and drag our competitors into this?”

"It's difficult. Who can we ask for help? MediaTek? It's useless. Their chips are low-end. It's normal that they can't run Honkai Impact 3D. It would be abnormal if they can!"

"What about Nvidia?"

"Tegora 4 is useless. Nvidia has long since withdrawn from the mobile phone chip market and is now watching our excitement!"

"Who else?"

"Texas Instruments has already withdrawn, and Intel's mobile chips have also withdrawn. We have no choice but to recruit others to share the pressure. Can we choose Xingyi Technology?"

"Are you kidding me? Xingyi Technology's phones from two years ago can run 1080P high-definition images smoothly. How can we do that?"

"Drag them down with this to highlight that our iPhones are rubbish and Xingyi phones are awesome!"

"Sacrifice Apple to make Xingyi mobile phone a god?"

"That's definitely not possible."

"Fuck, I seriously suspect that the emergence of "Honkai Impact 3D" is Wang Yi's plan, his conspiracy to overthrow Apple, Samsung, and Qualcomm! Or maybe it's an open conspiracy!"

"Take away the doubt!"

"MiHoYo, the developer of Honkai Impact 3D, is closely related to Xingyi Technology. After the release of Honkai Impact 3D, Xingyi Technology's platforms such as Changliao, Douyin, and Xingyi Video have been promoting the game with all their strength. Wang Yi is the largest shareholder of MiHoYo!"

"That's right. Previously, one of miHoYo's founders withdrew, and Wang Yi bought out 2% of his shares at a premium of 10 million. Adding the previous 45%, Wang Yi now owns a total of 55% of miHoYo's shares, thus achieving controlling stake!"

“To put it bluntly, although miHoYo is not under Xingyi Technology, it belongs to Wang Yi!”

"Wang Yi asked miHoYo to develop the ceiling of 3D mobile games just to attack Apple, and he really killed our iPhone!"

"Fuck, Wang Yi is such a black-hearted guy!"

"What's worse is that not only the iPhone 5s was killed by Honkai Impact 3D, but also the soon-to-be-released iPhone 6 was killed by Wang Yi."

"Alas, the iPhone 6 also has 1G RAM, and it can't run Honkai Impact 3D. It would be better if it had 2G RAM."

"What's the point of saying this now? It's too late to upgrade to 2G RAM!"

"If we don't upgrade to 2G RAM, iPhone 6 won't be able to run Honkai Impact 3D, and its sales will definitely not be good!"

"Isn't that absolute? Not everyone plays games, especially large-scale 3D games like Honkai Impact 3D, which are equivalent to 3A masterpieces in mobile games!"

"You can't say that. From the user's point of view, I can do without powerful performance, but you can't do without it!"

"That's right, an iPhone 6 that costs over 3 yuan can't play Honkai Impact 999D at low quality, and is worse than the 2 Ultrawide . How can you expect users to place an order?"

"Our iPhone 6 is useless. It's out of fashion before it's even released!"

"It's too late to upgrade to 2G RAM!"

"The iPhone 5s performed so poorly in the market that our iPhone 6 was moved up to August, meaning it will be released next month. Foxconn is already fully producing the device and has tens of millions of units in stock, so there is no time to upgrade to 2G RAM."

"Alas, it's too late to upgrade to 2G RAM. If we don't upgrade to 2G RAM, we won't be able to sell it!"

"Wang Yi, ah Wang Yi, he wants our iPhone 6 to die!"

"A game called Honkai Impact 3D not only killed the iPhone 5s and 5C, but also killed the iPhone 6 which was not yet released!"

"Wang Yi is awesome! So ruthless!"

Everyone was filled with emotion, feeling that they were in a desperate situation, with no way out.

Cook took a deep breath and said, "The situation is very clear. First, we cannot recall the vehicles. We cannot afford the loss."

"Second, we can't upgrade the 2G RAM. Tens of millions of units have already been mass-produced, and there's no time left."

"Third, the iPhone 6 is facing a last-ditch effort. We have high hopes for it and it cannot fail!"

"Then there is only one way out, discredit "Honkai Impact 3D"!"

"To discredit "Honkai Impact 3D"?" Everyone was confused and didn't understand what Cook meant.

One of the vice presidents' eyes lit up: "Great! What the chairman means is to use a series of means to discredit "Honkai Impact 3D" and guide public opinion, making the public think that the iPhone's inability to run "Honkai Impact 3D" is not Apple's problem, but "Honkai Impact 3D's" problem!"

"In this way, users will not boycott Apple, condemn Apple, or ask Apple to recall the products. Instead, users will think that it is the game "Honkai Impact 3D" that has a problem!"

"Yes, that's what I mean." Cook said in a deep voice: "This is the only way out. You should discuss the specifics as soon as possible and move forward as soon as possible!"

"Yes!"

The next day.

Apple released a statement:
[iPhone 5s is Apple's flagship phone released last year. With its excellent system and outstanding performance, it can run all mainstream mobile games smoothly and is loved and supported by the majority of users.

However, recently due to compatibility issues caused by insufficient optimization of a certain game, the game did not run smoothly, and Apple expressed deep regret.

But there is only one such game.

Moreover, most mobile phones such as Samsung, Motorola, and Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 models cannot run the game smoothly.

This shows that the game has design flaws, and it is not Apple’s own problem.

It is recommended that heavy game users use game consoles or PCs to experience this type of game.

It is also recommended that certain game companies do not disrupt the balance of the mobile game market for special purposes!
...]

As soon as this statement came out, the entire network was in an uproar:

"What do you mean? If Apple can't support it, it's not Apple's problem, it's the game's problem!"

"That's amazing. If you can't solve the problem, then you can solve the game that caused the problem? Absolute! It's absolutely amazing!"

"WTF, once again I've seen Apple's bottom line, there is no bottom line!"

"It's fine if you're a loser, but you don't even admit it and you blame other people for having problems with their games!"

Not surprisingly, the internet was filled with a barrage of insults.

But soon, Apple took action.

On the one hand, they use their financial resources to recharge on major platforms, frantically delete posts, and control comments.

On the other hand, they deployed water armies to divide users and guide public opinion:

"Apple is right. It's not just the iPhone that can't run Honkai Impact 3D. So many other phones can't run Honkai Impact 3D!"

"That's right. If a mobile phone can't run Honkai Impact 3D, that's the problem with the phone. If 90% of mobile phones can't run Honkai Impact 3D, that's the problem with Honkai Impact 3D!"

"Finally someone told the truth. Honkai Impact 3D is clearly a AAA game that needs to be played on a console or a high-performance computer. They have to make it into a mobile game. This is simply asking for trouble!"

"That's right, they made a 3A game into a mobile game and then blamed the iPhone 5s for not being able to run it. That's really too much. Why don't they make even bigger 3A games into mobile games? They can't run it either!"

"I feel sorry for Apple. It's clearly a problem with the game, but it's said to be Apple's problem, and users are complaining and condemning it. Apple has such a hard time."

"A mobile phone is just a mobile phone. It's enough to play some card games or 2D games. Why do you have to play AAA 3D ​​mobile games? Isn't this a joke?"

"That's right, I'm on Apple's side this time. It's not Apple's fault! It's all caused by Honkai Impact 3D!"
