my return to life

PS: Subscriptions are falling like crazy, so I can only update 3 late at night. This chapter has checked a lot of information, wasting two hours...

Dear readers, grandpa, please order~

Chapter 706 This audience is not good (+8/19 more)

One o'clock in the morning.

On the viaduct in the bustling city center, there are still colorful traffic slowly swimming in search of the exit.

Usually, the eastern outskirts of Pudong are already quiet due to the late night.

According to the time, the Dragon Boat Festival has passed, but villa No. 20 is brightly lit for the first time.

In the study on the first floor, seven people in the front office were fiddling with a computer.

For example, Fang Nian is watching the official WWDC live broadcast.

When Gu Yu reported domestic public opinion, Fang Nian didn't react right away.

Because the WWDC scene is a bit messy.

Although due to factors such as the sound recording and language of the live broadcast equipment, it is not possible to fully understand the noise of the scene.

But Fang Nian could still see the embarrassment on the face of the demonstration engineer named Craig on the stage.

And Fang Nian also heard a sentence with a relatively high decibel: how come.

No shoutouts like 'wtf' have appeared yet though.

But the scene was visibly chaotic.

The dissatisfaction of the audience is also very obvious.

The demonstration engineer on the stage was obviously not as able to hold up the scene as the previous executive Schiller.

The boos from the audience were too obvious.

In the end, it was just over 2 minutes anyway, and Craig hurriedly said: thanks.

Then Schiller immediately took the stage again.

Fang Nian is having fun.

Because it is obvious that some of the new gestures of the new system that Schiller specially introduced before, and even the new function demonstrations including pages and photo editing, are gone.

Fang Nian does not understand technology, but he still knows a little about the press conference process.

The presentation apparently had to be stopped midway due to dissatisfaction in the audience.

"Thank you Craig..."

"OK..."

"..."

Fang Nian who was behind didn't pay attention, and muttered: "The audience this time is not very good, impatient, and not at all like a senior 'fruit fan' like me."

Then he looked back at Gu Yu who had just spoken: "How should I say it?"

Gu Yu looked at the computer screen and said, "About 5 minutes ago, Shenzhou officials released a message through the Weibo platform, saying that they would try to discuss the possibility of cooperation with Frontier Nuwa Lab."

As he spoke, he looked at Fang Nian: "Although it is already late at night, netizens are rushing to tell each other."

"Shenzhou..." Fang Nian muttered the brand name.

Regarding the commercialization of Nuwa DeskOS, Fang Nian is not in a hurry to finalize a complete plan.

It's natural.

It can also be said to be waiting for an opportunity.

Because the application ecology of Nuwa DeskOS is relatively incomplete, there is no need to rush to launch it.

Fang Nian said at the beginning that if you want to launch something similar to Google Chromebook, the open source KuaFuOS is at the same level as ChromeOS;

Anyway, after the installation is complete, there is only a browser, and everything is done through the browser, including the use of some basic applications.

The goal of Nuwa DeskOS is obviously not to realize an Internet access function.

In addition, now Nuwa DeskOS has only achieved a leap from 0 to 1.

Next, we need to realize one life two and two life three.

Only when Sanshengwuwu has enough accumulation for commercial deployment.

It's just that Fang Nian didn't expect that Shenzhou would pick such an opportunity to suddenly announce such a news that would obviously cause an uproar.

Shenzhou...

Although it is called Shenzhou, because of the "extreme cost performance", the brand power is not very good, and the reputation is not very good.

But Shenzhou is very good among domestic computer brands.

In particular, Shenzhou notebooks have leapt to the second place in the market share of Chinese local brands since 05.

If the standard is stricter, it can be said that it is the first in the local area based on the headquarters address.

Of course, such a standard is too strict.

After Fang Nian muttered a few words, he frowned slightly: "Just wait and see, the cooperation cannot be now, it's just a piece of news, and it's not ruled out that they might want to bundle marketing, um..."

After pondering for a while, Fang Nian said indifferently: "If it's really a bundled marketing, we can be a little more tolerant this time. It's not easy for local computer brands."

"Understood." Gu Yu nodded, "Anyway, there is already a lot of popularity on the Internet, even if it is marketing, it is considered a success."

Hearing this, Fang Nian didn't say any more.

"..."

Speaking of the field of personal computers, Chinese brands have not been very successful.

Even if some companies such as Juchang and Xiaomi successively intervene in the field of notebook computers in the future, the situation will not change much.

Including big brother Lenovo, they can only be regarded as assembly plants.

Because in a macro sense, neither the hardware core nor the software core has its own things, which means that it has not mastered the core technology.

Especially on CPU and OS.

It is nothing of their own.

The CPU is either Intel or AMD, and the system is almost all Windows;

Even if a Linux window system such as Ubuntu and Deepin is installed in the factory, there is a high probability that the user will replace it with Windows in the end.

of course……

The same goes for foreign brands.

That is to say, Microsoft and Apple are companies with core technologies.

After all, one is the Wintel business alliance, and the other is the Mac series, which bucked the trend of declining global computer sales and soared by 28%—Schiller listed this data when he first appeared on stage.

Although Microsoft has not yet heard the voice to make its own Tablet PC.

But this situation has been going on for ten years.

Therefore, Microsoft simply dismissed the touches and provocations of Nuwa Labs—it’s not that there are no other window systems.

Even the most popular Apple Mac series has eaten away less than 10% of the market?

Even if it bucks the trend and rises by 28%, so what!

Therefore, Fang Nian was determined at the beginning that he must deeply touch Apple, so he focused on WWDC instead of caring about Microsoft's build conference.

and so……

Now Apple's WWDC opening speech will be such a disappointment.

as if now...

After Schiller took the stage again, he simply introduced the FaceTime built into the new system and the upgrade of functional modules such as mail.

Introducing the new system priced at $29.99.

That compares to $129 for the previous generation.

And this time only the electronic version can be purchased through the App Store.

In the end, when it was mentioned that the release date would be in July, there was no dissatisfaction from the audience, so the speech was hurriedly ended.

Today's Mac system is the same as Microsoft's Windows, and upgrades also cost money...

…………

Taking advantage of the time between substitutions, Fang Nian specially opened some social media sites in the United States.

It is daytime in the United States, and the Internet is naturally very lively.

There is also a lot of talk about Apple.

"Very disappointed! After waiting for so long, the new system is not attractive at all, definitely will not upgrade!"

"Has Apple lost its ability to innovate?"

"Even if a Chinese company's system is better than it, what's the point!"

"What did you do!"

“Waste of my time and tickets!”

"..."

Although there are a lot of dissatisfaction and complaints on the Internet, in the capital market, the fluctuation of Apple's stock price is not serious.

It should be said that since the market opened on the 6th Eastern Time, Apple's stock price has fluctuated too much.

It looks like retail trades are only a little bit more frequent than usual.

Even if there is a lot of negative news.

Even if Frontier pushed out some news just right, the impact would not be great.

but……

It is obvious that Apple is vigorously defending the market.

Because some investors have expressed some doubts in the stock-related forums.

"Someone must be manipulating the damn stocks!"

"Shit!"

"..."

It's just that there are not many such news, and they are quickly drowned out.

At this time, Guan Qiuhe in the corner suddenly clicked his tongue in amazement: "Mr. Fang is really stable when he should be stable. I thought that there would be a large number of institutions jointly shorting Apple today. I didn't expect that there was no sound!"

"Apple investors are not stupid. In the past, WWDC would boost Apple's stock price. This time, there are obvious risks and they did not suspend trading. They must have been prepared."

Having said that, Fang Nian paused and said calmly.

"In fact, today is nothing more than the fact that the original public opinion news has become a reality. The combination of software and hardware that Apple relies on for survival has indeed encountered serious challenges, but that's all."

"If you don't believe me, read on."

"..."

After a while, Foster, another Apple executive, took the stage to introduce iOS5.

The opening is the climax.

When Foster came on stage, he simply said a few opening words, and then his voice was in vain.

"Over 2 million iOS devices have been sold!"

"iOS has become the number one mobile operating system!"

"14 million iPads sold in 2500 months since launch!"

"There are already over 9 apps designed for iPad in the App Store!"

"The App Store has been downloaded over 140 billion times!"
