Chapter 346 Technology

Perhaps it was because she felt guilty, but during the rest of the show, no matter how brilliant and stunning Zhuang Long's performance was, she could still feel him glancing at her from time to time while she was sitting in the audience.

Therefore, the pressure brought by age is invisible but heavy. When facing other people, Su Yun does not have the panic as if he has been caught doing something bad. Instead, he still has time to think about how to fight back.

"I have to admit that his acting skills and expressiveness on stage are really first-rate." Bourne had also been in a drama troupe, so he naturally knew the skills and talents required for live performances, so he couldn't help but sigh quietly.

"Indeed." Even though Tom also had hostility towards Zhuang Long, he could not deny this indisputable fact.

Su Yun looked at the two people on his left and right with that awkward look of "although I don't like him but I have to admire his strength", smiled secretly in his heart, and then continued to focus on the stage.

At this time, the show was nearing its end, and Zhuang Long's character was facing the last scene. Under Su Yun's close attention, his expression, movements and language were all perfectly coordinated, as if he had completely forgotten all the audiences in the audience and was forever immersed in the story being performed.

The infectious power of the unity of man and drama is truly impeccable.

He is worthy of being the Chinese who has won the "Obie Award", the highest honor at the Broadway Awards, twice in a row. His acting skills are not only superb, but also moving, which many people cannot achieve in their lifetime.

Su Yun held her chin with one hand and watched Zhuang Long's exit intently: even his movements and demeanor were indescribably perfect.

There is no doubt that this stage play received extremely warm applause after the curtain call.

When the actors came out to take their bows, Su Yun took the opportunity to rush forward with the audience who were presenting flowers. With her agile body movements, she squeezed past the crowd with the flowers and squeezed to the front row. Then, she held her rejected bouquet and walked directly in front of Zhuang Long.

The look on his face as if he was a little bully who was trying to snatch a good boy from a good family made Zhuang Long couldn't help laughing.

"Thank you." He said this simple word as if he had met an ordinary enthusiastic fan, then bent down and took the bouquet of flowers from Su Yun.

Su Yun nodded with satisfaction, then turned around and squeezed into the crowd again, leaving Zhuang Long alone to be drowned by more bouquets of various colors that expressed enthusiastic support...

"Let's go have dinner." Su Yun squeezed out from the crowd and called Tom and Bourne.

"Don't you care...about that place?" Bourne stretched out his hand hesitantly.

"Anyway, I'm here and the flowers are here, and he was the one who treated me like that first, so who cares!" Although she was surprised, Su Yunke still remembered that he had returned her bouquet of flowers.

"Then let's go have dinner. He's already such a mature man, he will definitely know how to take care of himself." Tom wished that Su Yun and Zhuang Long would have less contact, and he said casually: Zhuang Long had always pushed him to Su Yun's care because he was young, and now things have really changed...

After dinner, Su Yun said goodbye to the two people who were reluctant to leave her and wished that she would disappear as soon as possible. She went back to the outside of the laboratory, put on heavy protective clothing and continued to work.

Because the machine is still in the initial stage of development and is limited by its size, this handheld computer only has an easy-to-use database, a perpetual calendar, time and alarm, a calculator, and a few simple memo functions.

Of course, the above-mentioned fool-proof built-in mini-programs are for ordinary people to use; what's more, this handheld computer also has a built-in programming system based on the Basic language. Those who know how to use it can directly operate the internal programs and write some mini-programs through machine code.

It can be said that if this machine falls into the hands of someone who doesn't know how to use it, it is at best an "electronic notebook" with a much larger capacity and more functions than a physical notebook; but once it falls into the hands of someone who knows how to use it, it cannot be said to be comparable to the powerful and easy-to-use tablet computers of later generations, but at least it is much better than small machines such as the "Haojixing" that were very popular in the past few years.

Since personal computers are often the starting point and carrier for people's innovation and creation, after internal discussions, the world's first handheld computer was named "Inventor I".

"At present, the sales of handheld computers are more elite and commercial, but due to the simplicity of functions and high entry restrictions, there is a lot of room for substitutability..." Su Yun took a sample that she had been trying for a while and expressed her experience of using it.

After all, she has seen the smartphone era. Even though the Creator One is already a very powerful high-tech new product in the eyes of today’s people, it is still quite “backward” to Su Yun: the perpetual calendar can be replaced by a physical calendar, the time and alarm can be replaced by clocks and watches, the built-in calculator is only comparable to an ordinary calculator, and the memo is not even as convenient as a physical notebook...

Although she could use marketing means to make it a new favorite in the business circle, Su Yun would never let it develop into this way: from the beginning to the end, she put all her efforts into these things, wasn't it just to promote the birth of smart portable devices and the rapid development of personal computers?

In the gaming category, Nintendo already had a series of small game consoles headed by Game Boy, and Su Yun couldn't let her own people fight against each other, so she had to come up with a new, irreplaceable but down-to-earth feature for the handheld computer, so that it could come down from the altar, enter the public's field of vision and be loved by them.

After thinking for a while, Su Yun decided to add a digital camera-like photo-taking function to the handheld computer, which was different from the popular "Instant Camera" cameras: "Instant Camera" immediately produces an image after taking the photo, and then spits out a physical photo with a wide white border; while the digital imaging of Creator One is that after shooting, the captured image is first stored in the memory card. Users can click to view the full-screen image, keep or delete images they don't like to free up storage space. When they want to get the physical photos, they can find the corresponding photo processing shop to print them out as physical photos.

This could also give rise to a new branch of the profession: printing out images taken with handheld computers into physical objects.

If the sales of handheld computers are good, the profits of this profession should not be much worse than those of a photo printing store, and you can also sell memory cards and the like on the side...

The point is that when you don't have film but want to take new photos, the high degree of freedom of deletion of cameras and Polaroid cameras - although the clarity of digital imaging is certainly not comparable to the pixels of a camera due to the current level of technology, this small machine that is short, fast and has relatively more functions will undoubtedly make it easier for many people to accept.

Humans always seek comfort. When most people go out, they will subconsciously choose a universal charger that charges slowly but can charge multiple mobile phones, or a professional charger that charges faster but can only charge one model of mobile phone...

Then, based on conditions such as production level and memory capacity, we develop standard editions, hardcover editions and flagship editions at various price points...well, it can basically cover all consumption levels from high to low, men, women, young and old, and can accurately strike.

After all, when Apple sells mobile phones in the future, it will use this comprehensive and all-round approach, with mini version, standard version, plus version, Pro version and Pro Max version... There is no money at all.

“Don’t underestimate the consumption data of young people. Although their consumption capacity is generally not as good as that of adults with normal jobs, their desire to consume is often higher than that of adults. The competitive spirit and the thought of ‘others have it, so I can’t’, to some extent, contribute to their fear of accumulating small amounts to make a large amount of consumption power.” Su Yun is very thorough in the strategy of small profits but quick turnover.

"Moreover, although the initial profit margin of a certain type of machine will result in a slow profit growth curve in a short period of time, it can also occupy a completely blank market to the greatest extent in the shortest time, forming consumers' brand inertia and dependence on function buttons, and achieving first-come, first-served cognition." Su Yun said very seriously, "Later, even if there are copycat products, many people will still recognize the original model and the corresponding brand name."

"Unless those 'copycats' can produce more innovative and irreplaceable functions than the new models of the original brand, otherwise, consumers who already own our brand of handheld computers, why would they abandon the machines they have and choose a new brand?"

"This already occupied market share is the first obstacle to curbing copycats - given a certain level of spending power, most people will not buy two machines with almost the same functions."

"And we are still constantly developing, innovating, improving and enhancing the level of our machines!"

“What we do is to stay at the forefront of the times. Even if there are countless followers behind us, we can still make every innovation a technological revolution and progress!”

Since Apple always attracted a large number of followers every time it launched a new model before she came along, Su Yun was not too worried about their ability.

The only thing that must be guaranteed is that the initial marketing work must be done well before consumer inertia is formed, otherwise the subsequent long-term goal of "occupying most of the market" cannot be achieved.

After working intensively on a large number of plans and confirming the general direction of the next research and development of the "Creator" series of handheld computers, Su Yun finally took off the dense protective clothing of the R&D personnel, changed into ordinary autumn clothes, and boarded the plane back to his motherland.

This time, she was going to the capital to look for her future deputy whose position she had finally found out.
