Chapter 215 Dinner in Huajing
Chapter 215 Dinner in Huajing
A week later, in a high-end hotel in Huajing.
"Haha, I see Old Joe again."
Chen Xi sat in front of his laptop and watched the launch of the first generation iPhone.
When Jobs walked onto the stage, the iPhone in his hand was like a magic crystal descending to the world, and Jobs began to introduce it:
It integrates multiple functions such as phone, media player, web browser, etc., providing users with unprecedented convenient experience.
The design of iPhone is simple yet elegant, with a thin body and rounded corners that are unforgettable at first sight. It uses innovative touch screen technology and abandons traditional physical buttons, making operation more intuitive and efficient.
Jobs demonstrated the unique features of iPhone, such as its intuitive touch interface, powerful Safari browser, built-in iPod music player and revolutionary App Store.
These features not only improve the user experience, but also push the development of smartphones to a new level.
At the launch event, the audience cheered for every feature of the iPhone, and they were shocked by the innovation and forward-looking nature of the device.
The launch of the first generation of iPhone not only marked Apple’s determination to enter the mobile communications market, but also heralded the advent of the smartphone era.
From then on, people’s lifestyles have changed because of the iPhone, and the world has become more closely connected because of it.
"Son, what are you looking at? Is there a new mobile phone? It seems that China doesn't have this one! When the time comes, bring me one from Australia." Mother Chen said curiously while looking at the contents on the laptop.
"I know. Don't forget what the lawyer told you these days. She is my friend's mother, and she is one of the four major lawyers in Huajing! You should learn more from her."
"What are you talking about! Am I not excellent, mom? Every profession has its own specialty. I am also very good at business."
"Yes, yes, yes." Chen Xi smiled in his heart. Good at business? He lost all his money later.
"Come with us for dinner later, your dad will come too." Mother Chen began to adjust her clothes in front of the mirror.
"Huh? Why did you tell him that I was here? Wouldn't that mean he knows our plan?" Chen Xi raised his head and looked at his mother. He immediately lost interest in the press conference in front of him.
"I didn't say that, but he'll know it sooner or later. Let's go to the dinner party tonight."
"Oh."
Chen Xi didn't care, lit a cigarette, and continued watching the press conference. Chen's mother took out her cell phone, walked aside and sent a text message.
"Ha, why do those people who work on mobile phones like to do this?" Chen Xi looked at the picture on the screen and laughed.
At the press conference, Steve Jobs began to explain why the keyboard was not good, redefined user habits, and then started to give examples. His meaning was obviously to beat competitors.
Then he started to complain about the systems on the market, saying they were too low-level and couldn't do the job. Then he talked about the major breakthroughs of his own system and how it was different from other systems.
Contact book synchronization, optional voicemail, etc. In short, the implication is that it can beat competitors.
Chen Xi was laughing so hard in front of the computer. His mother, who was not far away, was also on the phone. She covered her mouth and giggled secretly. She looked at Chen Xi from time to time, and no one knew what she was talking about.
The current Apple mobile phone has just been launched, and third-party application developers are not yet able to develop applications for the iPhone.
Now it can only make users feel slightly more novel than the mobile phones on the market, but it still has some software for daily life.
"Son, get ready to go."
"oh oh."
His mother's call made Chen Xi reluctantly close the computer, completely extinguish the cigarette in his hand, and then walk over with dragging steps.
"What are you doing? Are you going to meet the leader?" Looking at his mother tidying up his clothes, he rolled his eyes. Is it necessary to be so particular?
"Wouldn't it be embarrassing for us if our son was so sloppy when meeting old friends?" Mom puffed out her cheeks, pretending to be angry.
"I thought he was some important person!" Chen Xi's mouth twitched, and he followed his mother out of the room.
The climate in Huajing is very different from that in Xinlu. The rainfall is relatively less and the temperature is more than ten degrees lower than that in Xinlu, already reaching minus ten degrees Celsius.
In addition, snow was falling outside, covering the entire city in white, adding a touch of winter chill.
"Son, your scarf is nice! It looks like it's hand-knitted, and I didn't notice it before. Tell me, which girl gave it to you?" Sitting in the car, Chen's mother touched the dark blue scarf around Chen Xi's neck, then narrowed her eyes.
"Wow, you're wearing a bracelet and a watch. You have good taste. This style looks good." Before Chen Xi could say anything, his mother started to make a fuss again.
She has been back home for so long, but she has only just discovered these things.
You say she is usually careless, but sometimes she becomes like Sherlock Holmes. Women are really strange creatures.
"Tell me the truth, this watch doesn't look cheap. I thought you didn't have enough living expenses, so I was planning to give you a raise. I think you'd better forget it."
"No, Mom."
"Haha!" Chen's mother giggled. She liked teasing her son.
The dining place was not far away and we arrived at our destination quickly.
"Why are you so late? There are still five minutes before the agreed time." Father Chen frowned and looked at the two of them at the door of the hall.
"You're not late, why are you in such a hurry?" Chen's mother pouted, looking unhappy.
"Hurry up and go in, they should be here by now." Father Chen glanced at Chen Xi and told him to follow. Mother Chen walked at the end and stretched out her little fist towards Father Chen's back.
This hotel, whether it is the exterior of the building or the interior decoration, exudes an atmosphere of nobility and elegance.
Chen Xi followed his father's footsteps and slowly walked up the stairs to the hotel.
The door of a private room was gently pushed open.
Inside the box, there was a man and two women sitting.
A middle-aged man, wearing a well-tailored suit that highlights his mature charm, like an old handsome man who has experienced years of maturity.
The beautiful middle-aged woman exudes an intellectual beauty, and her demeanor reveals elegance and composure.
What surprised Chen Xi was the young girl.
She turned out to be an old acquaintance - Shen Xinyi.
Shen Xinyi is a little different today than usual. She is wearing a black thermal underwear, and the tight design outlines her figure perfectly.
Her long black hair cascaded over her shoulders, adding a touch of charm and style to her.
"Old Chen is here!"
"hehe."
The man stood up immediately when he saw Chen's father, and the two shook hands.
Mother Chen hugged the beautiful middle-aged woman and whispered a few words in each other's ears.
Shen Xinyi looked at Chen Xi in shock, and Chen Xi felt the same.
It was obvious that neither knew the other was coming here.
"Chen Xi, right? Sure enough, you inherited your mother's looks, hahaha."
The man smiled at Chen Xi and patted him on the shoulder.
"Hello, uncle." Chen Xi responded politely.
Several people took their seats one after another.
"This is my daughter. She also studies in Mo Village and goes to the same university as you." As soon as they sat down, Father Shen began to introduce them.
"Haha, Xinyi's behavior is still very decent, unlike this brat in my family. He doesn't know how to sit or stand properly." Father Chen looked at Shen Xinyi and praised her with satisfaction.
"I think your son is a very talented person. Please stop talking about his bad things outside. I have never seen you praise him."
"If he does a good job, I will naturally praise him. Hey! I also want to have a daughter."
Father Chen waved his hand, turned around and saw Mother Chen staring at him, and quickly ended the topic. Father Chen had always wanted a daughter, because the Chen family had only sons for several generations, and there had never been a daughter.
However, Chen Xi did not want brothers and sisters, and his mother doted on him, so there was no further development on this matter.
The parents on both sides of the table were chatting, only Chen Xi and Shen Xinyi felt a little awkward. The two could only lower their heads and drink their drinks, answering the questions of the elders absent-mindedly.
"Both young people are so quiet, haha." Seeing that neither of them talked much, Father Chen deliberately nodded.
"We are all classmates, don't we know each other? Xinyi even praised you in front of us before!" Father Shen looked at Chen Xi with a smile.
Chen Xi was startled and immediately thought of something. Then the look in his eyes when he looked at Shen Xinyi changed.
"Chen Xi is very outstanding and has good grades in school." Shen Xinyi generously echoed her father's words and then smiled at Chen Xi.
However, Chen Xi was not at peace. He felt that Shen Xinyi had told his father about his entrepreneurship in Xi Village.
Now Shen Xinyi has been labeled as the suspected traitor by him.
