Wu Xuelin simply gave up sleeping, grabbed a coat and put it on, then went back to the technical department's office.
The team members followed closely behind him.
"Boss, were you talking in your sleep just now?"
"Are you talking in your sleep, or am I hallucinating?"
"That can't be us all hallucinating, right? It must be the boss talking in his sleep."
"As expected of the boss, his dreams are bigger than mine. I would never dare to dream of a 0.22nm chip."
Wu Xuelin walked silently to his workstation and stood in front of the safe behind it. Then he yawned again before opening his eyes and unlocking the door with his iris.
He bent his back slightly, reached in and took out a small translucent box.
"This is the chip sample my boss and I brought back."
The translucent plastic box was already very small in his hand, and the chip inside was even smaller, looking no bigger than a grain of rice.
If you don't look closely, you can't even tell there's a chip inside.
"Boss, you said there's a chip in here?"
Wu Xuelin: "To be precise, it's a 0.22nm chip."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was stunned. They stretched their necks, pushed the people in front of them who were blocking their view, and rushed over to watch curiously.
"Can 0.22nm really be achieved? I've only heard of 3nm before, but 3nm technology hasn't even been officially used yet."
"Isn't 3nm already the most advanced process technology currently? If technological progress should proceed gradually, how could it suddenly leap to 0.22nm?"
"And 0.22nm is definitely the most advanced process technology. How could they just give us their core technology?"
"Could it be that the boss made this 0.22nm chip himself?"
If it were Dai Li, all the problems would be explained.
Their discussion came to an abrupt halt, and they all turned their eyes to Wu Xuelin.
Wu Xuelin: "She also owns an electronic equipment company, which is comparable in size to ours. They've already come here for early-stage research and development, and are now ready for full-scale production. This chip is one of theirs."
Everyone in the technical department was silent for a long time.
Cao Yufei sighed, "She's worthy of being Boss Dai. There's nothing she can't do, unless others can't think of it."
"How could I possibly deserve to have my design be installed on a 0.22nm chip in my lifetime?"
"I'm so worried now. Is our system worthy of a 0.22nm chip?"
"I'm so afraid of ruining Boss Dai's chip."
The pressure on the technical department increased instantly.
This is what Wu Xuelin was most worried about, so he had never told them. If it weren't for Song Ji causing trouble, he would have kept the chip matter a secret until the packaging was completed.
"The boss trusts you 100%, don't you trust yourselves?"
"Isn't it because I have some idea of our level?"
Wu Xuelin: "If you are so unconfident, I might as well tell her now that you can't do it and let her build the system herself."
Although the technical department is nervous and dare not use the 0.22nm chip, if they are really asked to give up, they will be willing to retreat at the last minute.
Wu Xuelin: "Does anyone want to back out now?"
No one from the technical department spoke.
Wu Xuelin: "Since none of you are the type to back down in the face of difficulty, then cheer up. You are the ones who have the 0.22nm chip. Shouldn't you be full of morale and ready to fight a tough battle with Yundu at any time?"
His words enlightened the people in the technical department.
You are right. They now have 0.22nm chips. With such advanced chips, why are they so timid?
"Boss, you're right. We already have the best equipment for the battle. We must not lose our fighting spirit. What are we afraid of? We must believe that our team is the strongest and is no worse than those abroad!"
The technical department finally regained its previous morale.
Cao Yufei: "Boss, you and Boss Dai are both amazing people. She can make a 0.22nm chip. You have seen that a 0.22nm chip can be as stable as a rock."
Wu Xuelin was putting the chip back into the safe. When he heard Cao Yufei's words, he stopped yawning halfway.
How can he be as steady as a rock? Haven't you seen that he has been staying in the office every day recently and hasn't had a good night's sleep?
The moods of the technical department members have gone through a roller coaster of ups and downs, but their attitude towards work has never changed.
With the efforts of all their employees, they designed the system within the expected time.
Dai Li's electronic equipment company quickly manufactured the chips and then took them back to their company, where the robotic arms in the workshop assembled the parts.
After countless sleepless nights and countless complex emotions such as breakdown, frustration, and excitement.
Finally, they got the phone they built with their own hands.
The name of this mobile phone is very simple and straightforward, with only three letters "XIU", which is actually the pinyin of "smell", directly pointing out the biggest selling point of their mobile phone.
The completion of the "XIU" mobile phone system was much better than they expected, which was naturally inseparable from their efforts and persistence. The countless all-nighters Wu Xuelin endured were not in vain.
When the people in the technical department got the mobile phone for the first time, they couldn't put it down even before they turned it on. The appearance design and feel alone made them fall in love with it.
This mobile phone is not only the result of their hard work, but more importantly, it is the result of Dai Li's own technology.
For example, the battery is its energy collector, which controls the weight of the phone within 100g, so users no longer have to worry about wearing out their wrists from playing with the phone for a long time.
She also designed the running memory, which has a very large capacity and can ensure free switching between various software without lag or killing background processes.
The mobile phone screen is a new material she developed. It is not only drop-proof and scratch-resistant, but also has certain ductility and bendability. It can be used as both a screen and a back cover. There is an invisible camera under the screen. The back cover can also be unfolded to expand the screen and connect to form a folding mobile phone.
Of course, the appearance design is just a plus point for "XIU", and the main core technology still depends on the hardware and system.
When the people in the technical department couldn't wait to turn on the computer, they were shocked by the boot speed of less than 0.1 seconds.
The 0.22nm chip is completely incomparable to the 4nm and 7nm chips. The processing speed and computing time of the CPU are faster than people can imagine.
Whether opening the app or logging into the game, users will not feel any waiting, lag or delay.
The user experience is completely different from the mainstream models on the market. It gives the user the feeling of riding a rocket, which is a groundbreaking qualitative leap.
The people in the technical department were extremely surprised and treated "XIU" like a treasure.
"Is this really the system we created? It feels like a dream."
"How about I slap you to see if you're dreaming?"
"Don't be so boastful. It's not our system that's so powerful, it's the chip and the odor molecule sensor inside it."
Although this system is just the icing on the cake, it still doesn't stop the people in the technical department from being excited about it.
Because they did it and did not hinder Dai Li's chip, they were already very satisfied with it.
Now that the phone is made, what they are most concerned about is how the "XIU" phone will enter the public eye.
This is their culmination of work, a nearly perfect electronic product with a subversive design. It should not have been released quietly.
They thought that Dai Li would hold a grand press conference like other technology companies, talk on the stage, and proudly introduce its works to everyone.
But it was obvious that Dai Li was not the kind of technology company boss they imagined.
She would definitely not be willing to stand on the platform and speak for two or three hours just to sell a mobile phone. It would be tiring and troublesome.
She has no trouble selling her mobile phones.
Before this, Dai Li had already made preparations.
She had a storage room on the first floor of the company cleaned up, renovated it, and turned it into an "XIU" experience store.
The utility room on the first floor has a ceiling height of only 4 meters and an area of less than 50 square meters, which is completely incomparable to the high and spacious experience stores of international brands.
It is impossible that the company does not have the money to rent a store in the city center. Dai Li simply expressed her dislike for the hassle to the fullest extent.
According to Dai Li, "There are already many people who want to buy our phones. If we open a store in the busy city center, it will be difficult for users to queue up, which will affect the flow of people."
Well, their company is in the suburbs and there is very little traffic at the door, so there is really no need to worry about queuing.
The entire project team actually thought it made sense.
Even if the store is a little run-down or out of the way, there should be fewer people coming. It won't be like when I was selling energy harvesters at the exhibition, where I was so busy that I didn't even have time to drink a sip of water.
The "XIU" experience store has already been set up, but Dai Li has no plans to open it immediately.
None of the users knew that they made a mobile phone, so a certain amount of pre-promotion was still needed.
During the promotional discussion, Dai Li came up with a naughty idea: "Which digital bloggers does Yundu Mobile most like to send its phones to? You should know best, right?"
Wu Xuelin understood her intention immediately and said, "I understand. I'll sort it out right away."
Then he used his memory to copy out a list with his bare hands.
There are more than ten people on the list, including digital review bloggers of all sizes.
Some have hundreds of thousands of fans, some have tens of thousands of fans, but none of them are like Xiaoyang, who previously complained about "Yundu" online. He has nearly four million fans on his main video platform and over 10 million fans on the entire network, making him one of the top bloggers in electronic product reviews.
Wu Xuelin: "Yundu wanted to find him, but the blogger named Xiaoyang doesn't accept commercial advertising and pays for all his reviews out of his own pocket. He likes to speak the truth and is particularly good at criticizing brands. His straightforward and humorous style has won him a lot of fans."
Dai Li nodded and thought for a moment: "Then we will send him one."
Wu Xuelin nodded and wrote Xiaoyang's name on the form.
The people in the project department didn't understand: "He doesn't take business anymore, so why are we still sending it to him?"
Dai Li: "Just because he doesn't accept business offers doesn't mean he won't use products sent by brands. He just doesn't want to be paid to praise a brand. It's precisely because of his straightforward nature that he's most likely to become a die-hard fan of our phones."
The people in the project department nodded repeatedly, thinking that her perspective on the problem was very unique and very reasonable.
Dai Li: "Also, select a few high-quality food bloggers and send one to each of them."
On that day, they selected more than 30 bloggers, more than 20 of whom were digital bloggers and six were food bloggers.
Except for the digital bloggers that Yundu has worked with before, the rest of the digital and food bloggers were carefully selected by Wu Xuelin.
The number of fans may not all be top-tier, but he is definitely a high-quality blogger who makes videos with heart.
The "XIU" mobile phone was sent out, and "Xiaoyang, who loves testing reviews" in the same city received the package the next day.
The express was brought back for him by his housekeeper, and the back seat of his electric scooter was filled with groceries.
The housekeeper carried things in again and again, and was exhausted and out of breath.
"Why are there so many PR packages again?"
Ever since Tong Yang had a certain number of fans, brands often sent him PR packages. Ninety-nine percent of the items were not useful to him, and he had no idea how these people got his address.
"There's a part you didn't finish unpacking last time, so I moved it here. Do you want to unpack today's package now, young master?"
It’s not a good idea to have PR packages piled up all the time. Tong Yang frowned in disgust.
"Tear it down and give it away with a fan lottery someday."
This is Tong Yang’s old habit. He will draw lots for the PR packages that he doesn’t need.
Then he changed into a bathrobe and went swimming. After swimming a lap, he came back and had breakfast. The housekeeper had already sorted out all the PR packages for him and put them in storage boxes according to categories.
The housekeeper also helped him with classification and statistics.
"Master, the PR package you received this time includes eleven mobile phones, two headphones, a Bluetooth speaker, a virtual laser keyboard, an ultra-thin notebook, and a robot vacuum cleaner..."
Tong Yang didn't have the patience to listen to him finish, so he waved his hand to ask him to stop.
"Put the things there. I'll post a dynamic lottery later and you can send the things out tomorrow." He is a bit extreme. He will never get tired of the things he likes, no matter how long he plays with them, but he will find the things he doesn't like annoying at the first glance.
For him, there are only two situations: he needs it and he doesn't need it. There is nothing dispensable, so if it is something he doesn't need, he will find a way to get rid of it.
Tong Yang is a digital geek. He enjoys trying all kinds of products, no matter whether they are newly released or old digital products from the last century, he will find ways to buy them regardless of the cost. The products he likes will be treasured in his collection room, and the ones he doesn't like will either be sold or given away.
Because this is his hobby, every time he receives a PR package, no matter what type of digital product it is, he will personally experience it.
However, he has not yet encountered a PR product that satisfies him, because the brands that are keen on sending PR packages are all small companies, with great instability in quality control and batches, and many constraints in hardware and R&D.
Well-known technology companies themselves have a certain reputation. On the release date, it is difficult to get a phone. Even scalpers can raise the price. Why would they bother to send PR packages to bloggers?
Therefore, he almost always completed the unpacking test of the PR package very quickly.
Before doing the unboxing test, he took a family photo of all the products, marked them with numbers, and posted them on his social media for a draw.
Then I sat down cross-legged and tried the virtual laser keyboard first. It was as difficult to use as before, with delayed response, no tactile feel, and easy to accidentally touch. It was still just a product that looked technological.
The target audience of thin and light laptops is destined to have poor performance. Tong Yang, who is used to using computers he installed himself, sees thin and light laptops as a pile of electronic garbage.
It took him more than ten minutes to test all the products except the mobile phone. The result was as he expected, none of them caught his eye.
Finally, he turned his attention to mobile phones, which is his main business as a digital blogger, so mobile phones are the most digital products he received.
There were eleven mobile phones, ten of which were familiar brands, and the remaining one was the first time he had seen it.
Even a digital geek like him doesn’t recognize this brand, so it’s obviously a new brand.
Usually, the mobile phones made by unknown technology companies are not very good. If it is the first time to make a mobile phone, there is a high probability that there will be no experience and many bugs will appear.
If they have experience in making mobile phones before, it means that they may have been OEMs and clones of low-end phones. In that case, it is likely that they will choose to start with low-end phones when they make their own mobile phones.
So he put the new brand of mobile phone last and tried the first ten familiar ones first.
Several old friends have made some progress, but not much. In terms of actual operability, the chips have not been upgraded and the system upgrades are not obvious. Almost all of them are just piling data on the pixels, and the result is a competition to see who has the higher pixels.
Basically, he would lose interest after playing for a while and didn't want to play anymore. There was no creativity or breakthrough, and it was boring.
It’s still not as good as the phone he has in his hand which he has been using for half a year.
Ever since the phone he was using was replaced with an energy collector for storing energy, in his opinion, no other brand of mobile phone could compare to his.
Not only is the phone half as light, but the fact that it doesn't need to be charged is enough to make this digital lover love it.
He now hopes that major technology companies can reach cooperation with energy storage companies as soon as possible to produce mobile phones with original batteries. It doesn’t matter whether the chips and systems are upgraded or not. He will buy the old models even if they are on sale again.
Tong Yang played with his phone for a while before he remembered that there was another phone he hadn't reviewed.
He treated the last phone very perfunctorily. When he reached out to take it, his eyes were still on his own phone.
But when he picked it up, he felt a sensation in his hand that he had never felt before.
First of all, it is light, too light, so light that it doesn’t seem like a smartphone.
Although it is light, it feels very good in the hand and does not feel cheap at all.
This surprising discovery made him put down his mobile phone unconsciously. He held the "XIU" phone with both hands and looked at it carefully from front to back and left to right.
Then he discovered that the workmanship of this phone was very fine and the design was very thoughtful. It was completely different from the surrounding low-end and mid-range phones.
It was just his fault that he didn't pay enough attention to the PR package and didn't even notice that there was a pearl among the fish eyes.
The quality of a mobile phone can be reflected from its appearance.
Just based on the appearance, workmanship and design of the "XIU" mobile phone, Tong Yang already had some expectations for it.
He pressed the power button with anticipation.
Before he could react, the main page for ID registration and login appeared.
There was no waiting time for the system to start up. If it weren't for the ID registration and login page, he would have suspected that the phone had been in standby mode all the time.
After Tong Yang registered his ID, entered the main page, and started using the phone normally, he finally felt the power of the "XIU" phone.
Not only is there no waiting delay during boot-up, but no matter what operation you perform in any app, it is as fast as a rocket and as smooth as chocolate.
Moreover, the system will not kill background programs. The software will remain the same when you exit it and come back in.
Tong Yang opened more than a dozen mobile game apps for testing, all of which were large games of several hundred megabytes. Playing each game for two minutes would take more than half an hour, but even with such a long time span, he could still switch back and forth freely without having to reload.
Even if he actively closed the game, the loading time when re-entering it was faster than other mobile phones. This was mainly because the game would load animations, which affected the opening time. Otherwise, it would be the same as other software and there would be no waiting delay at all.
What shocked him the most was when he was testing a food mobile game.
The game mission required him to collect materials to roast a suckling pig. When the NPC brought out the suckling pig, he smelled a rich aroma of roasted suckling pig.
He was the only one living in the manor now, and the daily menu was given to him. He clearly remembered that there was no roast suckling pig on the menu today, and the roast suckling pig from other people's houses would not be able to reach his house.
Although he had many doubts in his mind, he did not take them too seriously.
Until he made Xinjiang baked buns, lamb skewers, and Buddha Jumps Over the Wall according to the system tasks...
Every delicacy seemed to be right in front of him, the fragrance was so real and tempting.
This game made him hungry for the first time.
No matter how ridiculous it was, he had to start suspecting that the aroma of food came from this phone.
Then he looked everywhere for the answer and finally saw the explanation in the manual of his mobile phone.
It turns out this phone can smell!
Tong Yang couldn't help it, so he quickly logged into his account and posted a new update on the lottery news.
[Xiaoyang V, who loves to test reviews]: Hey guys, I have some exciting news! I got a super awesome phone today! It's insanely awesome! It's so awesome! I'm so excited I'm almost incoherent. Everyone, wait for my review, I'll be working on it in the next two days!
[Little Maomao]: Xiaoge, you finally remembered your account, didn't you? Do you know how long it's been since your last update? A full month, three days, eight hours, three minutes, and forty seconds.
[Lao Zhang who loves to tell the truth]: Lao Yang, you are drunk again. You are talking about the lottery and updates. Will you deny it when you sober up?
[I can never feel full]: I’m planning to change my phone and wait for Lao Yang’s video. I’ve used so many exclamation marks. If it’s not awesome enough, you can forget about my praise.
[123]:Since Lao Yang said it was an awesome phone, it must be really awesome. I look forward to his new videos.
[Nicknames are all taken]: Let me guess, it’s not Yunse, right?
[Xiaoyang V who loves testing reviews] replied to [My nickname is already taken]: Please don’t let this kind of rubbish phone insult this amazing phone in my hand. You will know after reading my review. I can only tell you that it is amazing beyond your imagination.
His words inevitably irritated fans of the "Yunse" mobile phone, who began to curse him under his updates.
Tong Yang inadvertently started a war and successfully whetted the appetite of his fans, who were eagerly waiting for his videos.
He himself is also full of expectations for the yet-to-be-discovered functions of the "XIU" phone.
He recorded the video all night and only fell asleep on the sofa in the study when it was almost dawn.
The housekeeper discovered that he had fallen asleep on the sofa in the morning. He gently covered him with a quilt and then began to help him pack up yesterday's PR products.
The results of the lottery that Tong Yang organized yesterday were announced in the early morning. The housekeeper had the list of winners in his hand and was ready to help Tong Yang mail it out in the morning.
The housekeeper was very careful and checked the PR products and models received yesterday one by one. He even took down the "XIU" mobile phone that Tong Yang was pressing on his chest and put it in the storage box.
Then he tiptoed, closed the door, and walked out.
When Tong Yang woke up, it was already noon. His first reaction was to touch his chest.
My chest feels empty.
He quickly sat up and looked around for his cell phone.
As a result, I searched the entire study but couldn't find even a trace of the "XIU" phone.
Did his magic machine disappear, or was it just a wonderful dream of his?
