Chapter 525 Pangu created the world, and the horn sounded! (Subscribe)
The half round thing that appeared on the third day,
This once again aroused people's curiosity, and by now, basically half of the people were sure that there was a personal computer underneath, because most of the keyboard was already exposed.

Only personal computers have a greater possibility, but people can no longer think of others...

So what exactly is this little thing on the right?

It looks so small and round, what is its function?
People from all over the world began to speculate and analyze, and major newspapers were happy to publish these analyses because people all over the world were paying attention to this matter. This was a hot topic, and by chasing hot topics, there would be no need to worry about newspaper sales!
Some people say it is a decoration!

Some people said it was a teacup!
Some people also say that it is a tool used to support the wrist and make the user more comfortable, but it is actually not very useful!
Some people even said that this was just a smokescreen, a weird thing to attract the public's attention and make the discussion more heated...

In fact, it’s all a routine!
I also call on everyone not to be fooled and not to be a clown and be played around by others.

But no matter what the situation was, everyone's curiosity was aroused. The first thing they did when they got up every day was to read the newspaper to see if the cloth covering the photo in the newspaper had been removed.
What on earth is that thing down there?
When I go to work or meet someone, I often ask, "Hey, did you read the newspaper today?"

"What do you think is down there?"

"You think the Orientals can really make personal computers? This is incredible!"

"But I think even if they create a personal computer, it is impossible to start the third industrial revolution. Isn't this a joke?"

"That's right! The Industrial Revolution can be started by anyone, right? It took Europe hundreds of years of accumulation before we started the First and Second Industrial Revolutions! Orientals...hahahahahahahaha..."

……

On the fourth day,

After everyone got up, they went to take a look at the newspaper. Sure enough, the photo on it had changed again, and the cloth was lifted up a little, revealing more content.

A complete rectangular keyboard was completely exposed, with a small gadget next to it dragging a wire, like a mouse.

Other than that,

There is also a rectangular object. I don’t know what it is, but it doesn’t look like a screen anyway.

But this is not important. What is important is what is that mouse?
No, why put a mouse there???

On this day, everyone had a burning question in their mind: what exactly was that rat?
Another very smart expert and scholar has come forward.
After careful analysis, they felt that this should be a metaphor, an exaggerated metaphor, and also a trick used by Oriental people.

Isn’t this a computer that they developed? They think this computer is very powerful and amazing, so even mice are attracted to it and want to get closer to see it and see this amazing computer...

Even mice are attracted here. Now you should believe that we Orientals can start the third industrial revolution, right?

After seeing the experts' analysis, many people believed it again, thinking that what the experts said made sense and was very logical, and that it must be true.

Most of the time, people follow others blindly.

They all like to listen to the opinions of some experts and let their thinking guide them. It is hard to explain why...

This has been true throughout the ages.

The voices of ridicule and mockery were rampant, and all major newspapers and magazines were happy to reprint the article. Some newspapers and magazines even deliberately made some very radical remarks to stimulate sales.

……

In this turbulent and public opinion-filled atmosphere, major newspapers would receive the latest photo from "Times Technology" every day and then put the photo in the newspaper of that day.

That big hand would pull the cloth a little further away every day...

On the tenth day, the big hand finally pulled the cloth apart completely!
A machine with a novel and unique shape appeared in front of everyone...

"Is this...really a computer???"

"So it really is a computer... God! Orientals actually developed a computer, this is incredible..."

“Why is this computer different from ours?”

"Look at that mouse, it...it doesn't seem real. Oh, I mean it's not a real mouse. It's not attracted by this computer. It looks more like a tool!"

"Are you kidding? How can a mouse be used as a tool? Can it chat with you and entertain you?"

"Look carefully, there are two words on the screen. What are they? Does anyone recognize them? Sorry, I don't recognize those damn oriental words..."

"I don't know it either. How could I know it? But I guess it should be the name of a computer? Yes, it must be so!"

……

People were talking about it, and that afternoon, a newspaper published another wave of analysis from experts.

"Pangu!"

"The text displayed on the screen of that Oriental computer is Pangu, a god from the East. Legend has it that this god named Pangu took a big axe and split the sky and the earth in half, leaving half as the sky and half as the earth."

"See what I mean, ladies and gentlemen?"

"The Orientals are trying to tell us that they have created a computer that can create a new world and an era!"

"Oh by the way, ladies and gentlemen, do you know who created this computer?"

"It was developed by a company called Times Technology in Kowloon. Listen to the name of their company, Times Technology. They are telling us that they are going to create an era, a new industrial revolution!"

……

boom--

It caused a global sensation and everyone was shocked.

That’s what it meant...

You are so arrogant!

So is this seemingly good computer really that powerful? ? ?

If it is so powerful, why is the "Times" company so unknown and has never been heard of before?
Is this move a trump card?

Who is Time Inc.?
Then another expert jumped out...

In fact, we all know the boss behind the "Time" company. In the past few years, he took away all our European glory!
There are many, many people who are his readers...

His name is Wu Youde, and his pen name is Qinglong.

Now, you all know who he is, right?

That’s right, he is Wu Youde, who wrote “Who Moved My Cheese?”, “Harry Potter” and “One Hundred Years of Solitude”!
These works earned him a lot of pounds, and he used these pounds to create the "Time" company. After ten years of hard work, he developed the Pangu computer...

With this explanation,

People then had some superficial understanding of "Time Inc.". Since Qinglong's works were excellent and he had won the highest honor, the Nobel Prize in Literature, people couldn't help but have some expectations for him.

Will the computers his company develops be as good and outstanding as his creations?

……

It was the eleventh day.

The front page content of major newspapers in various countries has changed again. There is still a photo on the top, but there is a lot more text content below.

A real personal computer!

Efficient, convenient, and rich in functions, it can be used for work and entertainment. Things that are impossible to do in reality can be done on this computer.

In addition to the description, there are also some performance parameters. For example, it can calculate one million times per minute, can carry out ten processes at the same time, has 128 megabytes of storage space, and the color display can be turned on continuously for 72 hours...

Etc., etc.

These are all useful information!
Ordinary people can’t understand it. They don’t understand what it means to be able to calculate a million times in one minute, nor do they understand what a process is or what storage space is.

But it’s different for professionals…

A number of manufacturers and practitioners were instantly shocked and exclaimed, "How is this possible? This is a fantasy!"
"boast!"

"Absolutely fake!"

"If you want to calculate a million times in one minute, it is simply impossible with current hardware. Even if you can barely do it, it can't be used for a long time. It will short-circuit and burn out after a few times!"

"As for software, it's even more different. Without hardware, how can there be any software?"

"The Orientals are bragging more and more!"

"He's okay at writing novels, but he's a layman when it comes to high-tech stuff like computers. He must have been fooled by his engineers... I feel sorry for him!"

"I think so too. I'm not as good as him in writing novels, but when it comes to computers, ten of him combined can't compare to me!"

"Okay, okay, it turns out that this is all a farce!"

……

On the twelfth day,
——Invitation letter!

Three big Chinese characters, with English below.

Appearing in the newspaper, "Times Technology" sincerely invites you to visit the "Pangu" computer, let us witness the start of the third industrial revolution together...

There is no limit on the number of people or industry.

Travel expenses will be reimbursed, and all meals and accommodation during the visit will be covered.

Location: Asia, Mazu, Baiyujing
Welcome everyone!

……

The end of 1972.

'Times Technology' held its first global product launch in Mazu, inviting interested people from all over the world to attend.

Although there are no restrictions on industries or places, anyone who wants to come can participate.

But the number of people who actually came was not as many as imagined.

The total number is around a thousand people.

These people come from all over the world, most of them are electronics manufacturers, followed by engineers or expert researchers, and the rest are businessmen.

It can be said that these people all have ulterior motives.

Those who are simply interested rarely come!

Because going to the East is not only inconvenient for transportation, but also requires a considerable amount of travel expenses.

Although 'Times Technology' said that they will cover everyone's travel expenses, food and accommodation, you still have to go there first.

This first step is a bit difficult!
Many people are worried that if they go, "Times Company" will not reimburse them, or there are other conditions for reimbursement. Wouldn't that be a loss?

As for why it was held in Mazu,

This is because Wu Youde doesn't want too many people to come to the headquarters of "Times Technology" to release the product. It doesn't matter where it is released.

He thinks Bai Yujing is quite suitable!
The scenery there is great, there are many rooms, and there are various supporting services, and secondly, there are entertainment activities.

We can let these people attend the press conference and then gamble a few times...

You can't just come here and eat my food, drink my drinks, and use my travel expenses, and then not leave anything behind?

Just put it in Baiyujing, at least you won’t lose money, right?

There's no need to be too polite to these foreigners!
……

The first product launch conference of "Times Technology"

The conference was held in the largest 'Jiuzhou Hall' in Baiyujing. Although there was no electronic screen or PPT, the presentation format of the conference was still very novel, which refreshed all the participants and shocked them, as if a door had been opened.

A huge movie screen was neatly spread out above the central stand.

In front, there is a projector.

This projector is also a product developed by the "Times Research Institute" in recent years. Its principle is actually similar to that of a movie projector. Now that computers have been developed, projectors are naturally no problem.

The video recorded with a camera in advance is stored in a memory, and then the memory is connected to a projector, so that the video can be projected onto the large screen in front.

The images are clear and the colors are vivid.

After a burst of exciting music, a "Pangu" computer appeared on the big curtain, and Wu Youde strode onto the stage. He was in high spirits, with a smile on his face, and looked relaxed and casual.

"Hello everyone, I am Wu Youde!"

“I am very happy to be able to gather with you all today to witness a great moment and start a new era together!”

"Maybe everyone will question what I said, thinking that I am exaggerating, trying to attract attention, gain benefits and make a fortune..."

Wu Youde looked at the people below the stage with a smile, and his eyes slowly scanned the entire venue.

Host the press conference yourself!
When this decision was first announced, everyone was a little confused and didn’t understand why?
Chen Xueru even said: "You didn't show up at the opening ceremony of the Oriental Building, you didn't bother to watch the launch of the Oriental Eternal, you didn't attend the launch of the Oriental Car, and you didn't attend the launch of the Oriental TV..."

"Why do you not only want to participate in this computer launch, but also host it in person?"

For this,

Wu Youde smiled and said, "Didn't I tell you that this is the third industrial revolution? It is a great honor and pride for me to be able to participate in it and start it myself!"

No one knows better than him.

"Pangu Computer" and "Hongmeng System", what a huge impact, shock and influence these two things will have on this era.

No one knows how much impact these two things will have on the entire world!
Wu Youde stood on the stage, smiling at the crowd below, and said loudly: "But... I am not short of money! Just the few novels I wrote, ten years later, are still making money for me every day, all the time!"

"As I stand here and talk to you guys right now, they're still making money for me..."

"Do I need to sensationalize to gain benefits for myself?"

The people in the audience looked at each other, then slowly shook their heads.

Wu Youde smiled and said loudly: "Then next, please open your eyes wide..."
