Chapter 61 Two-way Video Communication
Chapter 61 Two-way Video Call
As Xu Shenxue spoke, the large screen behind him kept changing, demonstrating various operations in detail!
At this time, the audience below the stage burst into applause again!
But there were also many people with unhappy expressions, such as a group of so-called friendly competitors who came uninvited... In fact, Zhiyun Technology did not invite the so-called friendly competitors. Why would it invite competitors to its own press conference?
No need.
But after they heard the news, they came here on their own initiative. People from Huawei in different districts of the same city, Meizu in the neighboring city, and several other mobile phone manufacturers came uninvited.
Then they watched Xu Shenxue's proud introduction on the stage, and they all felt bad.
Just looking at the appearance, this interaction mode has surpassed most other so-called smart phones in the world. The only ones that can compete with Zhiyun phone in terms of interaction are fruit phones.
Well, there is actually a Meizu M8 that has not been officially released yet!
There were also people from Meizu Company present. Their M8 mobile phone also has two-point touch screen and retains an oval physical button in imitation of Fruit.
But they are not as boastful as Xu Shenxue... In fact, they didn't even hold a press conference. They just kept releasing some information on the forum, and then held an online press conference and planned to put the product on the market for sale directly after a while.
This behavior pattern is incomprehensible to Xu Shenxue and other mobile phone manufacturers...
If other manufacturers had come up with this thing, they would have held various high-profile press conferences and hyped it up!
As for the American people, they are just enjoying themselves in a circle amidst the compliments from a group of fans...
After the applause from the audience died down, Xu Shenxue continued: "A smartphone, in addition to being easy to use, naturally also needs to have an efficient and stable call and text messaging system!"
"Needless to say, the call quality is very stable, and thanks to our large-capacity battery, the call time is very long, enough for you to chat on the phone forever!"
“As for text messaging, we also have a great text messaging design. With our self-developed virtual keyboard system, text input is very convenient!”
"The keyboard has built-in input methods, which can be switched between nine-key mode and twenty-six-key mode. It supports English, numbers, symbols, Chinese abbreviations, full spelling, Wubi, handwriting and other input modes to meet all your input needs."
"The current text messaging and even MMS image messaging are already very good and allow people to communicate effectively, but there is always something missing."
"The best way for people to communicate is face to face, especially with family and friends."
“Now, let me introduce you to our two-way mobile video calling feature!”
"Everyone, please watch me operate my phone on the big screen. It's on the address book interface here. Now I want to call a friend of mine. Um, let's make a video call to our marketing colleague Lao Ji. Let's see how he is!"
Soon, Xu Shenxue clicked on the business card interface, and then a camera icon appeared in this series of interfaces.
At this time, Xu Shenxue explained: "This video call function is a video call software we specially developed. It is based on network transmission. When both parties are using Zhiyun mobile phones, video communication will be established!"
“Many people have asked me before why I should add an extra front camera to my phone. This is why!”
As he spoke, he clicked on the camera icon, and then an interface waiting for the call to be connected appeared on the phone.
After waiting for about ten seconds, two images, one large and one small, suddenly appeared on the phone interface. The small image was Xu Shenxue holding a mobile phone, and the large image was a middle-aged man with an excited face. It was Ji Chenghe who was cooperating with the demonstration.
Xu Shenxue said into the phone: "Hi, Lao Ji, can you see me?"
Ji Chenghe's voice came: "Sure, Mr. Xu, I can see you very clearly!"
This scene was directly projected onto the big screen, and many people at the scene gasped... Video calls are nothing, many software can do it, but using mobile phones for two-way communication is unique in the domestic smartphone field!
Previous Apple phones didn't have this feature, and neither did HTZ, not to mention the rest of the feature phones and pseudo-smart phones.
In addition, there is currently no software in China that can achieve this function... In fact, technology is not a problem, the main problem is that no one is doing it. Before, there were not even smartphones equipped with front cameras, so why bother with this thing!
Previously, Zhiyun Technology suggested that mobile QQ develop a two-way video call function instead of the current one-way call function, but they ignored it.
But Xu Shenxue had already made a front-facing camera, so it wouldn't work without compatible software. So he simply asked someone to make a simple video call software. It wasn't very good, but it was barely usable.
Of course, in order to avoid overly stimulating operators and to maintain the uniqueness of Zhiyun phones, the video call function can only be used in Zhiyun phones and cannot communicate with devices of other brands.
This thing is not a commercial communication software in the conventional sense, but a function attached to the Zhiyun mobile phone to increase the originality of the Zhiyun mobile phone. As the video call was hung up, Xu Shenxue said to the audience: "As you can see, we have achieved two-way video calls on mobile phones. We can use 3G signals for communication, and we can also use wireless communication!"
"In order to better carry out high-traffic operations such as video calls and movie playback, we have integrated a WLAN hardware module into the mobile phone, which can support the WAPI protocol for wireless connection, so as to achieve truly free video calls and free Internet access!"
"Our Zhiyun phone is also the first mobile phone in China to support WAPI wireless Internet access, no other."
This statement caused a lot of discussion among the audience... People in the WAPI industry were naturally well aware that two days ago, the higher-ups officially issued an announcement allowing mobile phones sold in the country to use the WAPI communication protocol.
Some people who are behind the times in information don’t even know about it yet. Even if they do know, it would be difficult to figure it out in such a short time.
However, what makes many people feel sorry is that only WAPI is released, but the WIFI that everyone is more looking forward to is still not released... It’s not that WAPI is not good, but that there are too few devices supported and the usage scenarios are relatively limited.
However, given the current situation, it is only a matter of time before the WIFI standard is relaxed.
Next, Xu Shenxue continued to introduce the many features of the Zhiyun phone, talking about the chip, 3G baseband, screen, and battery.
However, since the products are from other companies, Xu Shenxue naturally would not exaggerate them too much. He just said that they used the best chips and the best screens.
For example, when introducing the screen, it mentioned the contemporary top-level 480-inch screen, which is also the highest-definition 800× pixel screen, and that’s it.
We invited representatives from some agreed cooperative manufacturers to come up and speak and take the stage.
As the first smartphone released in China, the cooperating manufacturers are still very respectful!
For example, Qualcomm, a chip supplier, is looking for mobile phone manufacturers around the world to support it, trying to grab market share in the era of smartphones, and Zhiyun Mobile is the second manufacturer in the world to release an Android phone.
When Zhiyun Mobile held a press conference this time, Qualcomm also sent a senior executive to speak on stage.
Of course, they are more focused on boasting about their smartphone chips and saying that their next-generation smartphone chips will be more powerful.
Then representatives from core component suppliers such as LG, which provides screens, and BYD, which provides batteries, came on stage one after another to give brief speeches.
Then an executive from the software partner's mobile QQ business also came up to speak.
Even China Unicom, an operator, sent a vice president to speak, talking about China Unicom's achievements and plans in building the WCDMA network.
Zhiyun Technology is already negotiating with China Unicom on the purchase of large quantities of contract phones.
However, the deal has not been reached yet, but cooperation between the two sides is foreseeable, it is just a matter of how big the scale of the cooperation will be.
As representatives of various partners took to the stage to speak, they promoted their respective products or corporate philosophies, looked forward to various futures, and so on.
Xu Shenxue also took the opportunity to rest and drink some water.
To be honest, Xu Shenxue was also very tired holding a press conference. After all, a press conference lasted more than two hours, and most of the time Xu Shenxue was explaining and demonstrating various operations.
Not only am I physically tired, but my mouth is dry from talking so much in a row!
While the representatives of the cooperating manufacturers took turns to talk nonsense, Xu Shenxue also took a rare break.
After the representatives of each cooperating manufacturer had finished speaking one by one, Xu Shenxue went on stage again, and this time he wanted to introduce something more unique.
Zhiyun APP Mall.
