Chapter 1174 Good News, Bad News
For the first time, people know that mobile phones can still be played like this.
Amid amid a kind laugh, Ji Zhengzhen ended the demonstration of the conversation with Loli.
"Of course, I also know that some users may not like the style of this Q-version girl. It doesn't matter. When developing loli, we cooperated with Leku Games. In this software, eight or nine personal design styles are set, so that users can choose from girls in the Republic of China, pure angels, sexy cute girls, assistants of the royal sisters, cold black long straight, sunny boys, cold handsome guys and other different voice assistant styles. For this purpose, different voice actors from various languages were specially invited to record the sound material and store it in the data center of Lo International. Through the server of the data center, Xiang Bu
Users from different languages in the same country provide services, so that users from different languages in different countries can truly experience the new service of lophone3." Ji Zhengzhen demonstrated it to everyone below through his mobile phone. In his operation, Loli turned from a q-version girl to a holy angel, and then turned into a youthful and beautiful girl. Sometimes it is a ol-Evil sister full of mature and seductive style, and sometimes a tall and mighty tough male god. Every time he shows his side, he has a unique corresponding voice to match it. These alone have to be amazed.
Well, let’s not talk about the performance of the lophone3. Just for this voice assistant, it seems that it gives people a reason to have to buy it.
"As we all know, Emp, which is the same parent company as us, just announced the smart car plan a few years ago. In fact, this is one of the links of our parent company's smart Internet ecosystem. In the definition of our company, loli is not simply a voice assistant. To put it more appropriately, it should be a primary artificial intelligence, the main body of the "big intelligence" in our parent company, including smart cars and other projects, practicing the huge concept of the smart Internet ecosystem..." Ji Zhengzhen once again gave everyone a lot of information, which felt like he was not shocking.
Hearing Ji Zhengzhen's words, the people below couldn't help but exclaim again.
Artificial intelligence is no longer a new word. As early as a long time ago, scientists were constantly pursuing it. Whether it was on May 11, 2019, when ibm computer defeated Gary Kasparov, the world's number one player in the normal time limit competition for the first time, or in various Hollywood movies or science fiction novels in recent years, artificial intelligence has left a strong impression on people. Many bigwigs in the technology industry have even clearly opposed artificial intelligence, but have not stopped human exploration of artificial intelligence.
Now, another living example appears before everyone.
Although, now it seems that this voice assistant can only perform some department-level human-computer dialogue, just be able to handle some simple matters, and is more like a small secretary who is carrying it with him, and must have various limitations in the networking state, but it is undeniable that this is the first step for artificial intelligence to appear in the civil field.
For the first time, everyone below realized that their lives were so close to artificial intelligence.
The plot that originally exists in science fiction movies is appearing step by step in my life.
"Since 2007, our parent company has set up a relevant department specifically for the development of artificial intelligence. For this reason, Wu Daxian, associate professor of the Department of Computer Science and Electronic Engineering at Stanford University and director of the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, is one of the most authoritative scholars in the field of artificial intelligence and machine learning in the world, and was specially hired as the general leader of the project with high salaries. Under his leadership, our artificial intelligence project has made considerable progress and breakthroughs, and loli is one of its products." Ji Zhengzhen simply described it to everyone.
Although it was just an understatement, everyone still keenly grasped the key points, especially American journalists. Domestic journalists did not know who Wu Daxian was, so they didn't feel surprised. And those American journalists were so well-known for this name.
Unexpectedly, he is actually the general manager of Lo International's artificial intelligence project, so it seems that it is not so difficult to accept the results that appear. Foreign media reporters have a clear understanding of Lo International's strength from the side.
"Okay, the last point next is the price and the start-up time!" Ji Zhengzhen briefly introduced some other upgrades to lophone3 and compared them with lophone2s, so that everyone present had a more intuitive comparison of the "new" aspects of lophone3.
As for the same sentence, in addition to being more beautiful than the lophone2s, a larger screen, thinner thickness and full of metal texture, a voice assistant alone is worthy of consumers' wallets.
After so much preparation, it is finally the last moment.
After hearing what he said, the people below couldn't help but hold their breath at this moment, but were not too nervous.
In fact, although news of the price increase of the lophone is coming every year, over the years, every generation of lophone flagship phones will remain the same as the previous generation, but the previous generations of phones will reduce the price accordingly.
"Today, in terms of price, I have brought you two news, one is good news and two are bad news." Ji Zhengzhen's sudden words made everyone stunned for a moment. No one expected that it was at this critical moment, Ji Zhengzhen was still cheering everyone's appetite. After he said this, everyone couldn't help but feel a little uneasy again.
It won't be that the price really needs to be increased.
"Okay, I won't keep it aside. The good news is that starting this year, the capacity of the lophone series will be expanded, with the normal version 16g, the upgraded version 32g, the luxury version 64g and the supreme version 128g!"
"Ah?" At this point, a burst of exclamations came from the venue, and everyone's eyes were filled with surprise.
But what followed was worry.
It is certainly a good thing to increase capacity, but you should know that Letong is not a charity, and the cost of rising capacity will eventually be passed on to consumers. In this way, the rumors of price increases this year have been confirmed from the side.
Sure enough, Ji Zhengzhen's news confirmed this point next. Starting from lophone3, the price of each product increased by 200 yuan.
When everyone heard this, although they felt a little disappointed, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in their subconscious mind.
Fortunately, it was only 200 yuan. Although the price increase was regrettable, it was not unacceptable. After all, the actual capacity that can be used was indeed large, not so.
But what is the second bad news?
When everyone thought about this, they saw Ji Zhengzhen rarely put on a serious look: "From October 1, Letong Mall will officially remove all products of lophone and lophone2. The first generation of lophone and lophone2 will be officially discontinued and withdrawn from the stage of sales. From then on, in addition to renovating the phone, everyone can only see them in the museum of Letong Company. For friends who like these two products, they can use the last half month opportunity to purchase."
When Ji Zhengzhen heard this, the media below was in an uproar.
It is definitely quite exciting news that Lophone has reached its current status and the lophone, the hero of its giant in the smartphone field, will be discontinued.
For a long time, with several price cuts, the first generation of lophones has become a product that ordinary people can get. Although this is a work by Letong Company four years ago, it is still a very easy-to-use mobile phone for many ordinary people. But now, is it finally going to withdraw from the stage?
But thinking about it, this is also a painful and inevitable choice for Letong.
At present, the first generation of lophones has reached the price of 2399. According to Letong's practice, whenever the new generation of lophones is launched, the previous generation of products will reduce the price accordingly. If the price is reduced, the first generation of lophones will fall below 2,000 yuan.
This is obviously unacceptable for Letong, which has always shaped the image of the high-end and boutique lophone series. If you continue to sell, the profits you obtain are obviously disproportionately from the impact on the brand image caused by selling low-end products. It is equivalent to losing watermelons to pick up sesame seeds. Therefore, in order to maintain the image and positioning of lophone high-end products, the suspension of the previous products is also an inevitable choice. This is also a manifestation of mature companies being responsible for their own product reputation and high-end consumer experience. Therefore, in the remaining half month, lophone and lophone2 will emit their last glory and burn out their last value for Letong's sales.
After thinking through this, the resistance to the news disappeared a lot, but the atmosphere in the venue was still a little heavy at this time.
However, Ji Zhengzhen did not leave much time for everyone to remember, and directly announced the date of its launch.
Just like the tradition, the pre-sale stage will start from the early morning of September 16, and will be launched globally from October 1st.
There are still ten starting countries, namely China, America, Canada, England, France, Germany, Japan, Australia, the United Arab Emirates, and Saudi Arabia.
Listening to Ji Zhengzhen's announcement of the policy little by little, everyone calmed down and focused again on the press conference.
After all, people have to look forward, not to mention that the surprises brought by lophone3 are enough.
When Ji Zhengzhen said this, everyone couldn't help but make preparations secretly, because according to the convention, the next time was the free time to enjoy the plane. They all held up a lot of energy in their hearts and wanted to be the first to touch the lophone3.
Unfortunately, Ji Zhengzhen did not give them such an opportunity, and looked at everyone with a chuckle: "The relevant situation of lophone3 will be a little higher, and next is the third product released today..."
Hearing his words, everyone couldn't help but be stunned again, "Anything else?"
