After the invitations were sent out, the media and distributors were quite surprised.
Product launch event?
This is not held very often in China, and many people are unfamiliar with it.
Previously, the companies were all state-owned enterprises, and the means of production and goods were allocated by the state, so there was no need to hold product launches.
"I heard that foreign companies often hold these kinds of press conferences, I didn't expect Wujiang Company to follow the trend too~"
"Hmm, I wonder what products Wujiang Company will release? I'm actually quite looking forward to it!"
"You'll find out in three days!"
...
The Institute of Computing Technology.
Liu Chuanzhi and the others looked at the invitation on the table with complicated expressions.
"What does Zhao Ye mean by this? He actually invited us to the product launch event?"
"Who knows? Maybe they have ill intentions!"
"Whatever, since he invited us, let's go and see. As the saying goes, 'Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated.' We can take this opportunity to find out what products Wujiang Company is releasing."
The crowd was buzzing with discussion.
Liu Chuanzhi frowned slightly, wondering to himself why Zhao Ye would invite them. Was there some kind of conspiracy behind it?
In fact, Zhao Ye did this because he was quite confident, to show that Wujiang Company was not afraid of the competition from Lenovo Chinese character cards, and to prove its strength to the outside world!
Of course, the media might report on why Wujiang had the courage to invite a competitor to its press conference. Even if no one reports it, Zhao Ye would pay them to cover it…
Otherwise, how could Zhao Ye's magnanimity and boundless strength be demonstrated?!
In fact, even if Liu Chuanzhi and others were not invited to the press conference, they would still know everything that happened at the press conference afterward.
Therefore, Zhao Ye would be better off showing more magnanimity and making people admire his broad-mindedness.
A minute later, Liu Chuanzhi had made up his mind and decided, "We have to go. If we don't go, wouldn't that mean we're scared? Besides, by attending their product launch, we can learn more about Wujiang's new products!"
Everyone nodded in agreement and decided that Liu Chuanzhi and Ni Annan would go together three days later.
...
Three days passed quickly.
Wujiang Company's press conference arrived as scheduled.
Media reporters and distributors flocked to the company building, making it a bustling scene.
In addition, this press conference also attracted great attention from the district government, which specially dispatched personnel to assist Wujiang Company in maintaining security at the press conference and to ensure its smooth running.
Zhao Ye dressed up specially today, all in black, a suit and tie, looking exceptionally handsome.
However, the setup at the press conference was quite shabby compared to later generations.
They simply set up a small outdoor stage outside the building, with a desk on it. There was no large LCD screen, just a white cloth hanging down for projectors. Luckily, projectors had been invented in this era; otherwise, it would have been difficult to conduct demonstrations at the press conference.
The press conference officially began at 8 p.m. sharp.
Zhao Ye slowly walked to the center of the stage.
"Distinguished guests, good morning! Welcome to the new product launch event of Wujiang Group. I am Zhao Ye, the general manager of the group."
The title "General Manager" is quite popular now, so Zhao Ye introduced himself that way. Actually, he prefers the title "CEO" (Chief Executive Officer).
Zhao Ye cut to the chase, saying, "At today's press conference, Wujiang Group will be releasing two new products. First, let me introduce the first product—the Imagine Chinese Character Card 2.0!!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the audience erupted in commotion.
Liu Chuanzhi and Ni Annan exchanged a glance, a hint of worry in their expressions.
The reporters, however, were extremely excited and began to whisper among themselves.
At this moment, a staff member carefully brought the Imagine Chinese Character Card 2.0 onto the stage and placed it on the table.
Everyone's attention was instantly drawn to the Chinese character card.
Zhao Ye, holding the microphone, smiled slightly and stood next to the Imagine Chinese Character Card 2.0, saying, "This is our company's latest development, the Imagine Chinese Character Card 2.0. Many people are probably curious about the differences, or innovations, between this second-generation card and the first generation."
"I won't keep you in suspense any longer, let me directly introduce the innovations of the second-generation Chinese character card."
"As we all know, a Chinese character card is just a device that enables computers to type Chinese characters. It is not office software, so you still need to buy an additional office software, such as the currently popular WordStar. However, this software was invented by foreigners and is entirely in English, making it very difficult to learn."
"But today, I'm telling you, as long as you purchase the Imagine Chinese Character Card 2.0, you won't need to buy any additional office software, because the Imagine Chinese Character Card 2.0 comes bundled with a Chinese office suite—WPS Office!!!"
As soon as Zhao Ye finished speaking, everyone present was shocked and immediately burst into exclamations.
"Did I hear that right? The Imagine Chinese Character Card 2.0 even comes with a built-in Chinese office software! That's so advanced! If I'm planning to buy a Chinese character card, I'll definitely buy this one!"
"Yeah, I had the same thought, but I don't know if WPS Office is any good..."
"I think WPS Office is Chinese office software, which is easy to understand, so it should be easier to use than WordStar!"
