81: Chapter 81: The Xiaomi Mi 6 was unveiled, and the world was astonished!
Then came various mobile phones from other countries.
Bai Jingqing hadn't even heard the names of most of them.
These phone manufacturers showcased their products one after another.
It wasn't until the very end that it was Bai Jingqing's turn to present.
When the conference called out Bai Jingqing's name,
Liu Guanfeng, who was beside him, was clearly taken aback.
He stared wide-eyed at Bai Jingqing,
as if he were seeing him for the first time.
"You... you actually brought a mobile phone as your entry?!"
Before this,
he had always thought Bai Jingqing might just be here for fun,
since Bai Jingqing hadn't brought out any exhibits.
He assumed Bai Jingqing might be from some small domestic company here to gain experience,
or perhaps a domestic communications reporter responsible for reporting on the conference.
The reason Bai Jingqing hadn't brought out his exhibit yet
was that he wanted to wait until now,
to wait until he stood on the stage,
to give the world a little 'Xiaomi Shock'!
At the moment his name was called,
Liu Guanfeng was indeed startled.
It turned out Bai Jingqing was actually here to compete,
and he had even brought a mobile phone!
One had to know how difficult it was for a mobile phone entry to win an award.
Most small companies brought accessories or other technologies,
which were the things to be displayed on the third day.
And among the manufacturers who could bring a smartphone entry,
which one was a pushover?
After all, they had to compete with international giants like Apple and Samsung.
But he never expected
that Bai Jingqing would bring a smartphone as his entry.
Hearing the conference invite Bai Jingqing up to report,
Xue Haixin was also extremely disdainful.
Just from watching today,
he felt that the current scene was already a clash of titans.
Setting aside the iPhone's world-strongest A9 processor,
as well as the innovations of 3D Touch technology and Live Photos,
and setting aside the world-stunning strongest flexible screen from South Korea,
along with the epoch-making Galaxy Note Round,
he felt that Bai Jingqing might not even be able to beat
his own company's new phone and entry, the ideal a9.
Did this kid really think he could rely on his xiaomi 5 to go up and bring back an award?
Going up now would just be an embarrassment.
Although the xiaomi 5 had once beaten the A8 Pro so badly it couldn't lift its head,
and Xue Haixin admitted the xiaomi 5's cost-performance ratio was indeed good,
this was a competition.
They didn't look at cost-performance,
they looked at technology!
So he felt that xiaomi phones were still far from being competitive on a global scale.
Choi Jong-eun had already learned through Xue Haixin that Bai Jingqing was a mobile phone manufacturer from Dragon Country,
so when he heard that he had also brought a mobile phone entry,
he wasn't very surprised,
he just watched everything coldly.
"Hmph!
Despicable Dragon Country people,
they only know how to plagiarize.
The phone you're bringing out now
is probably just a copy of our Samsung phone's design.
I'll see what kind of garbage you can produce today!"
Of course, most people had never heard of Bai Jingqing,
so not many people paid attention;
everyone was busy with their own things.
Bai Jingqing slowly walked onto the podium,
the large screen behind him showing the PPT he had prepared long ago.
On the podium's lectern,
there was also a magnifying lens used for display;
as long as he placed the phone under that lens,
the image of the phone would appear on the large screen behind the stage.
Bai Jingqing very calmly and nonchalantly pulled a phone out of his pants pocket,
then casually tossed it under the magnifying lens on the lectern.
"Ladies and gentlemen,
I am the representative of Huayao Communications, a mobile phone manufacturer from Dragon Country.
The work I have brought for you today is our Huayao Communications' latest phone—the xiaomi 6.
Everyone, please look!"
At first, no one cared.
Even the few who did care about Bai Jingqing,
such as Xue Haixin or Choi Jong-eun,
only wanted to see Bai Jingqing make a fool of himself.
However, when Bai Jingqing's phone was placed under the magnifying lens,
and when the silhouette of the xiaomi 6 appeared on the large screen behind the stage,
everyone who was looking at Bai Jingqing held their breath.
"This xiaomi 6 uses a Dual Curved Screen design.
You shouldn't be strangers to this;
Samsung from South Korea just brought a Curved screen as well.
However, theirs is a Single-curved screen,
while mine is a Dual Curved Screen."
Hearing Bai Jingqing say this,
those who had been indifferent to his presentation finally turned their gaze toward him.
Yet, with just the first glance,
everyone was shocked,
letting out gasps of surprise.
Choi Jong-eun's pupils dilated even more,
as if he had seen something completely unbelievable.
After a long while, he slammed the table in anger: "Shibal!
This is impossible!
What is going on?!
Even our Samsung Group hasn't made a Dual Curved Screen yet!
How could he have one?!
It is well known that our Samsung screens are the best in the world!
Our Samsung screen technology is even more impressive than Apple's!
Even Apple uses screens supplied by us!
But how could such a tiny Dragon Country phone manufacturer
have such a powerful flexible Curved screen?!
By what right?!
And isn't this design stolen from us?
Samsung was clearly the first to propose the Curved screen design and even produce the Single-curved screen design.
Dragon Country people are truly shameless!
Screens require an accumulation of technical heritage.
What heritage could a tiny Dragon Country manufacturer have?!
Now it seems he is nothing but a thief!"
Choi Jong-eun was furious,
even wanting to go on stage and point at Bai Jingqing's nose and curse him,
to let the whole world know he was a thief!
Xue Haixin looked at the phone on the large screen,
having forgotten how to speak.
At this moment, his heart was like a stormy sea,
with surging waves
that made his head buzz.
It took a long while for him to snap out of it.
"Is this a fucking phone?
No, how was this made?
South Korea has a very deep heritage in screen manufacturing,
yet they've researched for so long
and only managed to create a single-sided Curved screen.
Don't they know the benefits of symmetrical design?
Don't they know that dual-sided Curved screens are visually superior?
But since they haven't made it,
it must be limited by technology.
So how did that kid from the Bai family produce this Dual Curved Screen?
How is this possible?
Could it be that Huayao Technology's manufacturing level is even more impressive than Samsung's?
Impossible! Impossible!
This certainly cannot be real!"
Meanwhile, the Apple representatives attending the conference remained very calm.
Apple was always like this,
looking down on every other manufacturer.
No matter how impressive their work was,
they would always say: 'We are not products on the same track.
We have our own closed system
and our own design language.'
