Chapter 134 - 134 Miserable Launch, Upgraded Skills
134 Miserable Launch, Upgraded Skills
The Divine Dragon System, Heyme, and OPPO took the top three spots in trending topics respectively.
Trending #1: 1.1 million phones installed with the Divine Dragon System sold out in 10 minutes
Trending #2: Only 30,000 units of Heyme phones sold at a reduced price of 1,000 yuan
In previous years’ launches, the sales of Heyme phones had reached three million!
Fastest fingers first.
The sales volume this time was one percent of the previous years! The sales were very miserable.
Trending #3: Worst ever OPPO launch. Only 50,000 were sold. On site sales was 200,000 units.
OPPO phones were mainly sold in physical stores, but in the past, the livestreams of the launch would bring in more than a million units of sales, and the on site orders were around ten million units.
The sales this time was way below everyone’s expectations.
The sales were terrible.
Trending #4: National Telecommunications Manufacturing Company received offline orders for 50 million units in a day
Li Chengqian smiled after reading the trending topics.
Then, Li Chengqian clicked on a popular article written by The Guy Next Door, a tech blogger. It had been read more than two million times.
“Heyme and OPPO Lost Fair and Square. A Side-by-Side Comparison.”
The Guy Next Door did a detailed review and comparison of the products from all aspects.
The data was detailed and convincing.
In the end, the conclusion was that the Long Yao Generation 3 mobile phone out-performed the OPPO and Heyme’s flagship phones.
The entry-level phones released by the three phone manufacturers this time were all 1,099 yuan. They were more expensive than the Long Yao Generation 3 mobile phone, but their performance was only one-sixth of Long Yao’s. They were not cost-effective at all. Only diehard fans would buy them.
In terms of cost-effectiveness, the Long Yao Generation 3 mobile phone was invincible.
In the high-end field, the Huawei Breakthrough Generation 1 mobile phone had a performance score of 3.6 million points. Its performance was way ahead of Apple by at least five years.
The flagship phones released by the three mobile phone manufacturers paled in comparison to the Huawei Breakthrough Generation 1 mobile phone.
In the end, The Guy Next Door concluded, “I think the National Telecommunications Manufacturing Company’s Long Yao Generation 3 mobile phone will be the sales champion this year. In the high-end field, the Huawei Breakthrough Generation 1 mobile phone will dominate the market this year.”
“Actually, Heyme and OOPO’s phones are pretty good in terms of hardware, but there’s a fatal problem with their phones… They don’t have the Divine Dragon System! With the enhancement of the Divine Dragon System, even if the performance of the flagship phones released this time isn’t as good as the Breakthrough Generation 1 mobile phone, the difference won’t be that big.”
“It’s the same for the entry-level model!”
“The only way these three phone factories can save the day is to install the Divine Dragon System.”
There were already hundreds of thousands of comments under the article.
“If you don’t compare, you won’t know. These so-called black technologies of Heyme, such as liquid storage, atomic memory, focus calculation, intelligent equilibrium technology, and so on, these are primitive when compared to the Divine Dragon System’s application freeze technology, memory optimization technology, Information interface technology, pre-start technology and advanced battery management technology and process hibernation technology! The difference is like heaven and earth.”
“Do you want a hand warmer? Heyme, you’re worth it.”
“I didn’t expect that the Divine Dragon System would be so powerful. The 30 megapixel camera of the Long Yao Generation 3 mobile phone produces much better photos than OPPO’s 100 million pixel camera.”
“The livestream of today’s launch was exciting. The sales volume was to be revealed in the last segment, it was to be displayed on the big screen. At that time, Lei Che said confidently, “Please look at the big screen. When he turned around and saw that the number was only 25,000, that look on his face, the shock, the astonishment, the disbelief… Look at the emoji!” At the press conference, Lei Che’s stunned expression was screengrabbed.
“I saved it!”
“This stunned look is classic! Save it!”
“I’ll let you see Qian Yongming leaving in a daze. You can feel his pain.” Qian Yongming left the press conference immediately. A screenshot of his dejected expression was immediately displayed.
“Hey, Vivo’s launch was also very exciting! Shen Wansan cursed and swore at the scene. Would you believe it?” Then, a picture of Shen Wansan cursing with a ferocious expression was posted.
“I’ve saved it, I’ve saved it!”
“Buyer looking for a Long Yao Generation 3 mobile phone. Willing to pay an additional 500 yuan! PM me…
“Buyer looking for a Breakthrough Generation 1 mobile phone. Willing to pay an additional 5,000 yuan. I’ll take as many as you have…!”
At this point, Li Chengqian closed the webpage with a smile.
“It’s almost time, but not yet…”
“When they have used up all their moves and are truly in despair, that will be the time for me to consolidate the domestic mobile phone manufacturers. At that time, I will be able to have an absolute say in the mobile phone industry.”
Very quickly, Li Chengqian put this matter on the back burner. His focus was once again placed on the brainwave receiver.
He had just used the brainwave receiver in the manner of an ordinary person.
He did not use the Mental Coding skill.
Now, he wanted to experiment and use the Mental Coding skill to see if the side effects would disappear. This was of utmost importance to him.
He swallowed ten medicinal wolfberries.
This time, his hands weren’t on the computer, but on the armrests of the chair. His body was also leaning against the chair in the most comfortable position, and he was wearing a light and comfortable helmet.
Then, the Game skills were activated!
“Focus!”
“Rational Thinking!”
“Mental Coding!”
In the past, after the Mental Coding skill was activated, his body would twitch uncontrollably because of the transmission of brainwaves.
And now, he didn’t feel any discomfort at all.
He felt that through the helmet on his head, a data channel had been constructed between him and the computer.
The data connection was very smooth. It was very easy and comfortable to enter the data.
It was completely different from when he used his arms as a data channel in the past.
[Mental Coding skill (Proficient) has been enhanced by the brainwave receiver (Experimental). The side effects have disappeared. The duration has increased by four times, from 5 minutes to 20 minutes.]
Then, Li Chengqian began to try entering the data.
He made a copy of the source code of the Divine Dragon System and renamed it the Divine Dragon System Computer Edition. The modification of the source code began.
In a minute, a total of 3,000 new lines of code were written by Li Chengqian.
This was because the Divine Dragon System was built on micro-core architecture design. It was not that difficult to transplant from a phone to a computer. He only had to modify a small number of core codes and driver codes and add a unified system desktop. Then, it could be used directly.
In 20 minutes, the reconstruction of the core code was completed, and 60,000 lines of code were written.
The effect of the Mental Coding skill also ended at the same time.
After the Mental Coding skill ended, he didn’t feel sore. Other than feeling a little tired, he didn’t feel any physical discomfort.
“I finally got it out! This time, I’m going to go all out! I’m coming after your territories. Let’s see if you still dare to restrict me every day!” Li Chengqian was too excited and stood up from the sofa.
In the past, what restricted him from using the Mental Coding skill had always been the side effects of using the skill.
Now that the issue of the side effects had been resolved, nothing could hold him back anymore.
Without thinking, he opened his personal interface, selected the Mental Coding skill, and chose to upgrade!
[You have consumed 200,000 experience value points. You have upgraded your Mental Coding proficiency to Proficient (0/400,000). You have 1.4 million experience value points remaining in the Experience Pool.]
[You have consumed 400,000 experience value points. You have upgraded your Mental Coding proficiency to Expert (0/600,000) level. You have 1 million experience value points left in the Experience Pool.]
[You have consumed 200,000 experience value points. You have upgraded your Mental Coding proficiency to Proficient (0/400,000). You have 1.4 million experience value points remaining in the Experience Pool.]
Apart from being able to input words, the Mental Coding skill at the Expert level also increased the input ability of images, audio, and videos. The duration also became two hours.
Li Chengqian had wanted to upgrade the Mental Coding skill to Master Level at one go, but he did not have enough experience value points.
“I’ve increased the ability to input images, audio, and videos!” He could directly input imaginary images into the computer through coding in his mind.
“The duration has also become two hours. With the enhancement of the brainwave receiver, the actual usage time has also become eight hours. That’s sufficient for my use.”
Then, Li Chengqian grabbed a handful of wolfberries and popped them in his mouth, and he continued to work on perfecting the Divine Dragon System Computer Version.
Windows was one of the companies that boycotted him.
If Windows blocked the mobile version of the Divine Dragon System, then Li Chengqian would use the computer version of the Divine Dragon System to let them have a taste of how formidable the System was.
“I want to use the Divine Dragon System Computer Version and the brainwave receiver to drive Windows out of the Divine Dragon Nation. Right on the heels of that, the Divine Dragon System Computer Version will enter the world market and occupy it step by step!”
With the Mental Coding skill and the brainwave receiver, Li Chengqian was absolutely confident that he could do this.
The Bbrainwave receiver was a true black technology that would only be used to support the Divine Dragon System.
Just this point alone would kill the Windows.
This was because the brainwave receiver would completely change the input method of computers and increase the efficiency by hundreds of times!
Just imagine a software company using the Divine Dragon System with the brainwave receiver. The development would be a hundred times more efficient.
On the other hand, a company didn’t use the Divine Dragon System and didn’t have the support of the brainwave receiver. The development would be a hundred times less efficient.
Could such a company last long?
Impossible!
