"Wait a minute, what are we doing out for a night run?"
"To lose weight."
"So what are we doing now...?"
Lin Chen looked at the skewers in his hand and fell into thought.
"Well, you need to eat well to have the energy to lose weight."
After finishing their barbecue, the two took a taxi back to 1901 and collapsed onto the sofa.
"Ah~~~ That feels so good."
Time passed day by day, and finally May 20th arrived, the day of Xiaomi's new product launch.
The location is the same as before, at Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
However, this time it was much more exciting than last year. As Xiaomi's sales and reputation grew, its status in the smartphone industry also rose steadily.
Moreover, Xiaomi is currently unique in the smart home field, with no competitors whatsoever.
Therefore, every time Xiaomi holds a new product launch event, it's not just mobile phone manufacturers who get nervous, but also home appliance manufacturers.
The speaker was still Lin Chen.
Lin Chen walked to the main stage and greeted the media, business partners, Mi Fans, and friends present.
"Hello everyone, I'm your old friend Lin Chen. Today, I'm here again to bring you this year's Xiaomi new product launch event. Thank you all for coming."
As we all know, with the release of the iPhone, the development of smartphones has become an unstoppable trend.
Xiaomi, as one of the earliest manufacturers to develop smartphones in China, has attracted many consumers with its excellent system and outstanding design, becoming the number one selling Android smartphone in China and also the number one selling Android smartphone in the world.
On behalf of all Xiaomi Technology employees, I would like to express my sincerest gratitude to all Mi Fans!
Thank you everyone!
After speaking, Lin Chen bowed to the audience and the cameras of Panda TV.
The audience erupted in enthusiastic applause.
After bowing, Lin Chen continued.
"This year, we are just as sincere as ever, bringing you the brand new Xiaomi Mi 2."
So what exactly is the Xiaomi Mi 2?
Let me keep you in suspense for now.
First, let's look at this Nokia phone. Below is the classic 9-key keypad, which taught countless people how to type text messages without looking. Next, look at this one, which is a Blackberry full-keyboard phone. It caused quite a stir when it was first released.
Then came the iPhone, where the keyboard disappeared, leaving only a home button.
This gave everyone an unprecedented experience; the screen became so big.
Then we started to wonder, is the home button actually a type of keyboard?
"So, could we also remove the home button?"
The audience was filled with question marks when they heard Lin Chen's question.
This also includes an old man far across the ocean—Steve Jobs.
Since taking Lin Chen's advice and undergoing surgery, Steve Jobs has recovered very well and is now basically back to normal.
When he was discharged from the hospital, the doctor joked with him, saying, "An apple a day keeps the doctor away."
Unexpectedly, Jobs replied directly: Apple was created by me!
That completely baffled the doctor.
What?
Steve Jobs was also watching Xiaomi's new product launch at that moment. He still treasured the drawing of a full-screen phone that Lin Chen had given him. He was very curious about how Lin Chen would realize such a full-screen phone.
Lin Chen glanced at the audience below the stage, and then continued speaking.
"Everyone, please look, this is our Xiaomi Mi 1 phone."
A picture of the front of a Xiaomi Mi 1 phone appeared on the large screen behind Lin Chen.
"Imagine if you remove the home button, wouldn't the bottom half of the Xiaomi Mi 1 be entirely screen?"
The home button on the Xiaomi Mi 1 phone on the large screen behind Lin Chen disappeared, and the entire bottom of it became a screen.
"Look, everyone, doesn't this look awkward? Let's make the entire top part a screen too."
Then, the upper half of the original screen of the Xiaomi Mi 1 on the large screen behind them also changed.
"At this point, some people will ask: What about the original earpiece and camera?"
We placed the earpiece at the very top of the screen, and as for the camera, we tried many methods, even an under-display camera solution, but the clarity was insufficient and could not meet our requirements. We can only continue research and development, and we will use this technology when it meets our needs.
Finally, we discussed and decided to temporarily cut a hole in the screen to house the camera, like a teardrop.
So, is this our Xiaomi Mi 2?
No, we found that the phone screen was still too small, so we enlarged it, making it even bigger than the original Xiaomi Mi 1.
This is our final version of the Xiaomi Mi 2!
At this moment, a promotional image of the Xiaomi Mi 2 appeared on the big screen.
Everyone stared wide-eyed. Wow, it really came out! The entire front is a screen! Although there's a camera on it, it's really not a big deal.
Steve Jobs' eyes almost popped out of their sockets. Had this really come true?
No, no, what about the function of the home button?
It's important to know that the home button performs many functions in everyday use.
Meanwhile, at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, staff brought Lin Chen a Xiaomi Mi 2 phone.
"Please look at the Xiaomi Mi 2 in my hand. Isn't it beautiful? Doesn't it look like the phone used in futuristic sci-fi movies?"
Let me introduce the buttons on the Xiaomi Mi 2.
There are three buttons on the left: one is the mute button (just toggle it once), and the other two are volume buttons for adjusting the volume. There is only one button on the right: the power button. Note that this is the power button, not the home button.
Why am I emphasizing this so much? I'll explain in more detail later.
"Okay, let's turn it on and take a look."
Lin Chen pressed and held the power button, and the Xiaomi Mi 2 turned on. The moment the entire screen lit up, it shocked everyone once again. The bezels were so narrow, and the screen ratio was so high. How did they do that?
Lin Chen had already set up this phone in the background. After turning it on, he projected the phone screen onto the big screen.
"As you can see, I have just turned on the phone and made the necessary settings in the background."
What's the first thing you do when you turn on your phone?
With mobile phones becoming increasingly important to everyone, I believe many people set a password for their phones and need to enter the password to access them when turning them on.
This is too inefficient and also carries the risk of someone snooping on your password.
So we came up with another solution: facial recognition unlock.
