Chapter 208: Setting off a new wave of popularity!
"No, I mean, don't you think it would be better to have a faster pace?" Jiang Cheng asked.
"A faster pace?" Zhang Manlin listened to Jiang Cheng's words, her eyes widening in disbelief as she asked, "President Jiang, are you saying our company can develop further? Is the second generation of VI about to be launched? That's too fast, I think it's slightly inappropriate, at least we should launch the second generation of VI next year..."
"It's not VI, it's another device." Jiang Cheng smiled helplessly, unwilling to continue playing riddles with Zhang Manlin, and directly revealed the answer.
"What device?" Zhang Manlin asked.
Jiang Cheng took the phone out of his pocket and handed it to Zhang Manlin. "What's this?" Zhang Manlin took the transparent, crystal-like item from Jiang Cheng, stunned for a moment before realizing: "This... this is a transparent phone??"
"Yes, you guessed right, this is the transparent phone I made. I want the company to expand into this field."
"What do you think?" Jiang Cheng asked calmly.
"It's really a transparent phone!!" Zhang Manlin stared at the phone in her hand in shock, reacting after a while: "President Jiang, of course, there's no problem! Our Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company is already a giant in the field of virtual reality devices, and with the funds in hand, if we don't continue to turn money into more money, we'll soon become stagnant, which is meaningless. Although the current pace is large, I think if we have such a killer device, not expanding into the phone industry is truly a waste!! If you ask me whether we should enter the phone industry, my answer is definitely yes!!"
"Is that so? Then let's do it!" Jiang Cheng said with a smile. "Yes!!" Zhang Manlin nodded: "However, regarding the details of this aspect, I need to discuss them with you carefully!"
"That's no problem." Jiang Cheng nodded. As the creator of this transparent phone and also as the chairman of Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company, Jiang Cheng could not just hand this thing to Zhang Manlin and walk away; otherwise, that would be extremely irresponsible.
Jiang Cheng still needs to discuss the details of the upcoming promotion and other aspects with her.
This issue is no small matter.
Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company was not in a hurry to publish the transparent phone, but rather first revealed this news to various big players, informing them in advance and indicating that Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company is preparing for big moves ahead!
All the big players who received this news were somewhat speechless; it has not been long since the global virtual reality storm has passed, and there is already new action? And it's a transparent phone?
This Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company is indeed adept at stirring things up! Are they aiming for big things?
However, each big player is also very curious about the transparent phone—they know that Jiang Cheng and his Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company will once again shock the world, but similarly, how far can this transparent phone go? Can it compete with Apple Company?
Unlike other big enterprises, those big enterprises are usually publicly listed, with stocks available for purchase, whereas Jiang Cheng's Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company has no intention of going public—in simple terms, they are not short of money! With virtual reality devices as a big killer, they can't lack money. Moreover, Jiang Cheng does not want his company to lose his control, so Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company is destined not to go public.
After informing the big players, Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company quickly launched a commercial.
This commercial, through Tencent Company's promotion, was quickly known by many netizens and also spread overseas—on the other hand, various TV stations also broadcasted this commercial short film.
The theme of the commercial short film is very simple, and that is the transparent phone.
Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company's commercials rarely invite celebrities, because Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company never needs that bit of celebrity effect; they use products to move everyone. This time is no exception. The protagonist of the commercial short film is a cute girl.
A little girl takes out a transparent phone, plays with it for a while, and then calls her mom.
The commercial ends just like that.
There are no exaggerated lines, nor any flashy styles; the focus is on being plain and simple.
After the commercial ends.
A line of text appears—"A truly transparent phone."
Then this line is replaced with: "Not a concept phone."
Followed by "A brand-new smart system..."
Then, "A brand-new experience..."
Finally, "What are you waiting for?"
"Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company's product—available globally on September 1st!"
Although the time is still early, it is enough to make everyone look forward to that day.
And after the transparent phone advertisement appeared, people around the world immediately began discussions.
Just like many days ago, when they discussed virtual reality devices, they are now discussing "transparent phones!"
Just like virtual reality devices, the concept of transparent phones appeared a long time ago! They often appear in science fiction movies, but similarly, wanting to invent them in the real world is not an easy task.
In recent years, with the appearance and promotion of graphene, many saw the hope of transparent phones, but unfortunately
The extraction technology of graphene has not reached that level yet. Therefore, transparent phones are still far from reality.
However, now Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company has announced their plan to sell "transparent phones!"
How can this not be shocking!
Everyone's first instinct naturally is disbelief, but everyone soon realizes that Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company has invented even virtual reality devices, so what's a small transparent phone?
These people immediately started lively discussions online. "Wow! This is so cool! Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company is truly amazing, they're practically going to change the world!"
"Praise Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company, that transparent phone is so beautiful! It's awesome!"
"It feels like we're suddenly in a sci-fi novel world... the times are advancing, and we're lucky!"
"I wonder what the price will be, could it be like the virtual reality devices, costing tens of thousands, who can afford it."
"No way, since it's a phone, it shouldn't be very expensive, right?"
"Not very expensive? Are you joking, do you know how difficult it is to manufacture this transparent phone? How much graphene or other precious materials are needed? Do you really think it can be made casually? Ridiculous!"
"Oh oh oh oh? If that's the case, then won't it be like the virtual reality devices, unreachable?"
"Everyone, stop arguing, what's there to argue about? I can't believe you guys, why don't you check out Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company's official website for information? The official website of Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company has already provided related information, and the prices are listed!"
"Oh? Really! The standard version is 7,000 yuan, the deluxe version is 9,999 yuan, although a bit pricey, still bearable!"
"Long live Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company! This price is totally bearable!"
"Now, how many young people will start selling kidneys again..."
"Better than letting Apple Company make money, right!"
"I just don't know how the system of this phone and its operation, practicality will be!"
As the saying goes, outsiders watch the excitement, insiders look at the details. These onlookers on the internet are discussing passionately, yet none of them have hit the key point.
