141: Chapter 141 Weibo Feud

Guangzhou, Shen Fei's home.

Zhang Mingzhu was scrolling through Weibo, laughing from time to time.

Shen Fei came out of the bathroom, saw her laughing, and asked: "What are you looking at? Did a new TV series come out recently?"

Shen Fei subconsciously assumed she had seen some interesting TV show.

Zhang Mingzhu shook her head and handed the phone over.

"It's not a TV series, you're famous again. Some people in the comments are calling you 'Shen Semiconductor', and there are quite a few of them!"

Shen Fei took it, glanced at it, and saw a hot comment in his section: "Mr. Shen, if you really make the chip, I'll call you Shen Semiconductor from now on."

The like count was stuck right at 2500...

He smiled and returned the phone to Zhang Mingzhu: "These people are much better at naming things than those old fogies; the name 'Shen Semiconductor' actually sounds better than 'Shen Half-City'."

Zhang Mingzhu glared at him: "You really aren't humble at all."

Shen Fei sat down next to her and gently pulled her into his arms: "It's not that I'm not humble, it's that I don't have time to be humble."

"After all, we didn't make any wild claims; those are laboratory things, and they will be mass-produced soon. This time they can still be skeptical or surprised, but in the future, they won't even have time to be surprised."

"That's true." Zhang Mingzhu lay in his arms, her eyes becoming hazy, and then...

As Shen Fei lowered his head slightly,

"Wait, hold on..."

Shen Fei didn't pay her any mind and lowered his head to kiss her anyway.

Half a minute later, Shen Fei looked up at her with a grin: "What's wrong, my lady?"

"I see people on the internet starting to stir up public opinion against you, saying that your Taishan is also Android and no different from MIUI... If this continues, the reputation will be dragged down."

"My lady is so smart." After saying that, Shen Fei rubbed her hair.

"Don't treat me like a child, I'm not that stupid."

Zhang Mingzhu snorted coldly after saying that, looking even cuter.

"Got it. Don't worry, I've been prepared for a long time. It would be giving Lei Jun too much face for me to personally step in and bicker with him. There are people to do this; right now we should..."

Zhang Mingzhu nodded thoughtfully, closed her eyes, and looked even more hazy. Shen Fei didn't care about anything else and carried her straight to the bedroom...

Striving to "graduate" with double certificates...

March 27, 2010, the number of users on Sina Weibo just exceeded 50 million, becoming one of the largest social platforms in China.

The first thing countless people did when they opened their eyes every day was to scroll through Weibo.

And today, a great battle was unfolding on Weibo.

The fuse was a post by a Mi Fans named Mi Rabbit 007:

"No matter how well the honor play sells, it's still a MediaTek chip, and it won't make it to the big stage in the end.

The Mi 1 Phone has a Qualcomm single-core, a main frequency of 1.25 GHz, and even 1GB of RAM. It's the real flagship. The price is only 1998. Who is more worth it, who is more conscientious?"

The attached image was a comparison of the parameters of the two models. Not long after this Weibo post was sent out, the comment section undoubtedly started arguing.

"What's wrong with MediaTek? I'm using it and it's fine, and it doesn't overheat."

"Qualcomm is indeed stronger than MediaTek, but what about the first-generation Xiaomi? It hasn't even shipped yet? If you have the ability, bring the goods to sell!"

[Lei Jun: Someone stole my lines again! I want revenge.]

"A PPT phone has the nerve to boast."

"The honor play has been on sale for half a year, while the first-generation Xiaomi is still on pre-sale. It's clear who is more reliable."

The Mi Fans were naturally unconvinced. After all, Dami Company delayed the launch to buy better hardware and create a real flagship phone, rather than just compromising. This was all for their own good.

Never settling is the foundation of Xiaomi.

Thus, the "Xiaomi Army" officially began to counterattack.

Because of this incident, the two largest hooligan groups on the internet in later generations were officially established...

"Pre-sale is because supply exceeds demand, get it?"

"Exactly, the whole mobile phone market isn't like some company that only uses junk parts..."

"Anyone who knows a little bit about digital products will buy Xiaomi. As for the Honor, nobody wants it even if you throw it in the trash can."

"When the first-generation Xiaomi ships, you'll know what a real flagship is, and what real cruelty is."

Under Mi Rabbit 007's post, the fans of the two sides officially went to war...

Two hours later, the tempers grew hotter, and the flames of war escalated further, spreading to other Weibo posts.

Some Mi Fans ran to the official Honor Weibo account to spam: "Buying MediaTek for 2999, it really lives up to being the pride of domestic goods, just knowing how to rip people off."

"Big Mouth Yu, you sell something worth a few dozen yuan for 3000, doesn't your conscience hurt?"

"The Mi 1 Phone is the real flagship, the Mate s is purely a clown. Enjoy the final launch! When the Xiaomi comes out, no one will touch your garbage."

Seeing these hooligans break into their official account, the Huawei Fans were completely enraged and began to fight back.

"The honor play has sold over 9.8 million units, what about your Xiaomi? You only know how to brag, if you have the ability, bring the goods to sell."

"The choice of over 9 million users is still not as good as your 50,000 pre-order users."

"You guys know digital products best, why hasn't the sales volume gone up?"

Lei Jun's marketing is indeed brainwashing.

The first-generation Xiaomi relied on a single launch event, without any product, to get over 50,000 people to pay a 500 yuan deposit.

The number of free reservations even exceeded 1.5 million. He is indeed capable.

This is also the point Shen Fei admires most.

It's just a pity that the philosophy is a bit different...

Maybe Lei Jun could really become a top product manager under Transsion.

...

Big Mouth Yu didn't notice it at first.

He was looking at test reports when he scrolled through these Weibo posts. He flipped through them casually, thinking: Kids fighting, let them be.

After all, heating up the popularity is good for both Transsion and Huawei.

The honor play was already at the end of its life cycle; maybe it could even use this online flame war to enter a second spring.

But the next day, the flames of war burned brighter and brighter.

The two topics "Mi Fans" and "Huawei Fans" both hit the trending list.

Someone launched a poll under the official Weibo of honor play: honor play 1 (current price 1849) and Xiaomi first generation (1998), which one do you choose.

By the afternoon of that day, the number of voters exceeded 200,000.

The honor play was leading with an excellent score of 82%...

The Mi Fans, however, expressed doubts about this result? After all, they had forwarded it to multiple group chats, calling on the vast number of Mi Fans to vote, and yet it only accounted for 18%.

Dark curtain!

It must be a dark curtain!

"Damn, these sons of bitches, after fixing the sales, they fix the voting... Is there not a single honest person in that company?"

"Heaven-defying company... This is the so-called technology company, I don't know how much subsidy they cheated, suggest a strict investigation."

Many Huawei Fans looked at the results they had voted for one by one, only to be questioned by them.

A classic case of blaming the road when you can't walk.

They started to fight back again...

"Hahaha, for those who say it's faked, go check how many units the honor play and Mate series have sold in total first. Even if 1/10 are willing to play with you, there should be 1 million votes... 200,000, is it even worth rigging the votes?"

The arguing on the internet also made Big Mouth Yu completely unable to hold back. He picked up his phone and began to fight back...
