To become the richest man from the beginning of the game

Chapter 863

After seeing off President Pei, Chang You hurriedly called the key employees of the design department together for a meeting.

The new mobile phone is the top priority of OTTO's technology research and development. Whether it can continue the success of the previous OTTO E1 mobile phone depends on the design of this time.

Soon, everyone arrived.

Chang You looked around the crowd, and it was obvious that each of these key employees was also full of energy.

After all, a lot of year-end awards have been issued, and the Spring Festival holiday has been rested for a long time. Everyone is gearing up and wants to make a career.

"First of all, let me tell you the good news, we are finally making a new mobile phone!"

Excited and expectant expressions appeared on everyone's faces.

"However..." Chang You changed the subject, "President Pei has made some requests for the new phone."

Everyone nodded, thinking that this was a matter of course.

After all, the success of the previous OTTO E1 mobile phone is also inseparable from Mr. Pei's guidance.President Pei made a request, and everyone felt more at ease.

Chang You said: "Boss Pei asked us to adopt a full-screen solution with a pop-up camera, using as many new technologies as possible in the supply chain, and...the location of the pop-up camera is quite special..."

Chang You briefly explained Mr. Pei's request, especially emphasizing the position of the pop-up camera.

Everyone looked at each other, seeing confusion in each other's eyes.

The full-screen solution of the pop-up camera is adopted by many mobile phone manufacturers, but all the models that are still under development have the pop-up camera at the top.

What does it mean to be on the upper left side of the long side?

Chang You's expression was serious: "So, the primary purpose of having a meeting with everyone today is to analyze President Pei's intentions and determine the design plan for the new mobile phone."

"At present, Mr. Pei has been vague about some details of this phone, but he has repeatedly emphasized the position of the pop-up camera several times. I think this should be the focus of Mr. Pei's emphasis."

"Xiao Jiang, you are in charge of the shape design, so please tell me your opinion first."

Xiao Jiang came with a laptop, and he quickly drew a sketch in the software.

He frowned slightly, and said: "First of all, in terms of shape, compared with those mobile phones with cameras that pop up from the top, the shape of the camera that pops up from the side is more unique and recognizable."

"When the user holds the mobile phone, they hold the lower part. The position of the camera will not be blocked by the hand. Moreover, most people use their right hand when taking selfies, and the angle of the selfie is also very suitable. In this case, whether it is held horizontally or vertically, the photos taken should be better..."

"In addition, if it is in this position, the camera module on the back must be designed in the center, and the back will be more beautiful."

"However, these reasons are not very sufficient. Since Mr. Pei specifically emphasized the location of the pop-up camera, there must be some very important considerations."

Xiao Jiang made a few points starting from the camera itself, but obviously these reasons are not sufficient.

He looked at Chang You: "Mr. Chang, did Mr. Pei say anything else about the camera?"

Chang You tried hard to think about what Mr. Pei said before.

Suddenly, he remembered a detail that he had overlooked before: "That's right! I hinted to Mr. Pei before that it's strange to put it in this position. Do you want to make it symmetrical, that is, put the pop-up camera in the center."

"As a result, President Pei got it wrong. He even said that a pop-up camera can be added in the upper right or lower left corner to make it symmetrical! But this plan is too outrageous, so President Pei must be joking."

Xiao Jiang frowned slightly: "Upper right or lower left..."

With a quick touch on his laptop, he added a pop-up camera above the long right edge of the phone and below the long left edge to see the effect.

"After adding it to the upper right corner, the entire phone becomes T-shaped, and there is nothing special about it."

"Add it in the lower left corner...Hey, Mr. Chang, do these two pop-up cameras look like two shoulder buttons?"

Chang You looked at Xiaojiang's computer screen, and saw that on the prototype of the mobile phone, there was a square-shaped protrusion above and below the long side on the left side. If you look at the phone horizontally, it happens to be two shoulder buttons.

The design of the shoulder button is a standard design on the handle of the host.

According to the standard use method of the handle, the shoulder button and the trigger button are clicked by the index fingers of both hands. In racing games, it is generally the accelerator and brake, while in shooting games, it is generally aimed and shot. They are very critical buttons.

Chang You suddenly had an idea: "Could it be that Pei always hinted that we would make two trigger buttons and develop a gaming phone specifically for mobile games?"

"You mean combining a pop-up camera with a trigger button?"

"No, Mr. Pei said this in a teasing tone, and he didn't specifically emphasize the need to make two pop-up cameras."

"Besides, there's no point in having two pop-up cameras anyway."

Xiao Jiang said: "Mr. Chang, this is obviously a hint from Mr. Pei!"

"The mechanical structure takes up too much space, and one front camera is enough. It is definitely meaningless to make two. But the reason why Mr. Pei mentioned this is that he still hopes to make this kind of 'symmetrical design'!"

"Mr. Chang, can you see if this design works: the pop-up camera is still on the upper side of the long side, and we make it a right trigger button. On the lower side of the long side, we make a separate left trigger button."

"This pop-up camera will only pop up in a few situations such as selfies and video conversations. In other scenarios, it will retract and only protrude a little bit as a trigger button that can be clicked."

"The left trigger button does not have a pop-up camera. It has the same feel as the right trigger button. It is wider than other physical buttons, protruding from the body, and can be clicked. The rebound is strong and the key travel is relatively long. Give the player as much as possible. The best gaming experience."

Chang You suddenly nodded: "That is to say, this phone is a gaming phone with two physical trigger buttons?"

Xiao Jiang nodded: "Yes, and if you think about it this way, many points will be connected together!"

"Our mobile phones have to use flagship chips, stack materials to the extreme, and the battery capacity is much larger than ordinary mobile phones. Such good performance is definitely a serious waste if it is only used to browse the web and chat. It must be used to play games."

Others in the room were inspired and began to speak out as well.

"Yes! One of the key problems with the pop-up camera is that the pixels of the front camera will not be particularly high, and male users who like to play games will not particularly care about this. This shows that the pop-up camera solution is more suitable for gaming phones."

"Yes, since the full-screen technology is adopted, the screen of the mobile phone will definitely change from the traditional 16:9 to 19:9 or 19.5:9, that is, the entire screen will become wider. For playing mobile games with a horizontal screen For mobile phones, the field of view will be wider, which is also an advantage for traditional mobile phones."

"I think there is another crucial point. What is Tenda's core business? It's games!"

"At that time, we will cooperate with Tenda Games or Shangyang Games to release a racing or shooting mobile game, such as the mobile game version of "Lonely Desert Highway" or the mobile game version of "Sea Fortress", and then make an exclusive game for mobile phones. Optimization...doesn't this highlight our advantages?"

Chang You nodded frequently.

It's right, it's all right!

No wonder Mr. Pei put the pop-up camera in this position. It turned out to be a reminder to make two shoulder buttons!

The pop-up camera already has a mechanical structure. Using this mechanical structure to make a physical shoulder key specially used for playing games can be regarded as making the best use of everything, which is more cost-effective than other mobile phones with pop-up cameras.

As for the left shoulder button below, although it also has a mechanical structure, it doesn’t need to be as big as a pop-up camera, so it won’t take up too much internal space, which is completely acceptable.

Coupled with other details such as full screen and flagship chip, the game experience of players will definitely be significantly improved.

Chang You was very happy: "That's right! Boss Pei must think so!"

"Then let's follow this idea and improve the details!"

With a clear direction, everyone is not as confused as it was at the beginning, and you start to discuss the remaining details of this phone one by one.

"Since we have decided to make a gaming phone, let's make it look cool, right? I think it can be made into a mecha-style back shell, plus LED lights. After all, the E1 phone also has LED lights, which can be regarded as a continuation of the tradition. .”

"The battery capacity must still be larger, and the recent fast charging technology seems to have been upgraded and can be used."

"Although the new under-screen fingerprint technology is not particularly easy to use, let's add it to add a sense of technology."

"To play games, you must have dual speakers."

"The charging port and headphone jack are moved to the center on the right side of the phone, so that they will not block your hands when playing games on the horizontal screen."

"The power button and volume button are also all placed on the right side of the phone to make room for the two shoulder buttons."

"Since players are used to the weight of our mobile phones, and we also need a large battery, then we don't need to make a protruding rear camera. In this way, the appearance of the entire mobile phone can be further improved."

Everyone was chattering, and soon, the general design plan of this mobile phone was available.

Although there are still many details that need to be carefully considered, the general direction of this phone is already very clear.

While listening, Xiao Jiang quickly recorded the main points of the discussion.

Chang You was very happy: "Okay, let's finalize this plan! Everyone start preparing immediately!"

"Thinking about it now, Boss Pei still has the foresight to see farther than I do."

"Before, I wanted to make this phone according to the successful experience of E1, but now it seems that it is obviously too conservative."

"I have a hunch that the new mobile phone made according to Mr. Pei's plan will definitely be a big success!"
