Chapter 655 Fantasy Netbook and Wii
Chapter 655: "Dream" Netbook and Wii
In the past two years, Yang Xing took advantage of the rebirth and took advantage of the Internet crash in 2000 and the "9/11" terrorist attack to make a fortune from the stock markets of the Nasdaq and New York. He also used this fortune to acquire several large enterprises that were on the verge of bankruptcy during several international economic crises. Now, after the integration, the group's business is booming and has a great form.
Although this World Conference met **, the number of visitors it attracted was still unaffected. Yang Xing's practice of unveiling a new means of transportation at the annual opening ceremony once again lived up to expectations. This time he drove a rotor plane and landed directly in the center of the venue, which made the audience who bet on speculation about his appearance.
Yang Xing came on stage to introduce that this type of rotorcraft is not a helicopter. Although they look similar and have a large rotor on their heads, rotorcraft and helicopter are completely two different types of aircraft. The rotorcraft was born in 1925 and is not later than the helicopters. However, because it is slower than the booming propeller aircraft and helicopters at that time, it has always been ignored, but its safety is far beyond these two aircraft.
A rotor is actually a vehicle between a helicopter and an aircraft. In addition to the rotor, it also has a pair of vertically placed propellers to provide forward power, and generally it is equipped with a smaller wing to provide part of the lift during flight. The biggest difference between a rotor and a helicopter is that the rotor of the rotor is not connected to the engine transmission system. The engine does not use the drive rotor to provide lift for the aircraft, but during the rotor flight, the airflow blows the rotor to rotate to generate lift.
The landing and running distance of the rotorcraft is much shorter than the takeoff distance, and even if it is well operated, it can land on the spot without sliding. It can land in just a place larger than the diameter of the rotor. It doesn’t matter if it is uneven, and it can even land on the tent or deck of a tourist boat. The American rotorcraft flight training manual says: "The stability of the rotorcraft is the highest among all aircraft." Because most modern rotorcraft uses civilian vehicle engines, they also lack the complex transmission system of helicopters, which is much lower than that of ordinary civilian aircraft and helicopters in terms of noise and price.
The target of the sales of such aircraft that are easy to drive, safe and high-quality aircraft produced by Xingchen Manufacturing is the richest people of the emerging middle class in China. Domestic flight is strictly controlled, and the threshold for purchasing private aircraft is too high. As a new sports and entertainment method, the rotorcraft takeoff altitude is low, the speed is not fast, and the safety is high. There is no need to register routes with civil aviation. The cost is only equivalent to a car worth hundreds of thousands of yuan. Takeoff and landing does not occupy much space. It is a suitable tool to satisfy many people's flight dreams.
Of course, the rotorcraft is just an opening gimmick. The most star-like person at the conference is still Nebula Electronics. After self-development and acquisition of the technology of many world-class electronic companies, it has now become the strength to challenge international electronic giants in high-tech fields such as it, mobile communications, digital home appliances and chips.
Especially in the mobile communications industry, its smartphone market share accounts for 34 of global sales, and its open source smartphone systems such as Star, Nokia, Motorola's Symbian system or Microsoft's ppc cannot raise its head. At this World Conference, it also launched a high-end custom smartphone starburst (Star Burst), jointly launched with Starbourne Fashion, with a price of nearly 10,000 US dollars per unit, and orders are still being competed for.
However, the limelight of the star smartphones in the past was snatched away by superstar computers at this year's World Conference. They followed the launch of netbooks that used their own "Tai Chi" CPUs last year, and then hit the iron while it was hot this year and launched the world's first "Yin and Yang" with dual-core CPUs. Although Intel ridiculed it as a glue to glue the two CPUs together. However, this method greatly narrowed the performance gap with Intel and Amd's CPUs. After all, a CPU cannot compare to you. The two "Yin and Yang" combined can at least achieve the same result as Intel's latest Pentium 4 chip 80.
What's more, the dual-core "yin and yang" CPU still maintains the greatest advantage of Nebula CPU's low power consumption, and is an excellent partner for laptops. You should know that due to the heat dissipation and volume, the laptop CPU must be made separately at this time. The same model of CPU has a desktop computer performance that is significantly higher than that of laptops. Therefore, laptops can only be used for simple office and business purposes for a long time, and power consumption is also a big problem. The battery life of laptops is generally only more than 2 hours, and the price is much higher than that of desktop computers.
Due to the limitations of CPU, the design of notebooks must have originality in wiring and heat dissipation. Previously, the notebook design field was completely monopolized by international large computer companies, while Japanese computers often dominated the thin and short notebook computer market with their extraordinary industrial design capabilities. However, the emergence of netbooks undoubtedly disrupted the entire market layout.
Although the "Tai Chi" CPU has a certain performance gap compared to Intel and Amd products, it is more than enough to meet the general Internet and office needs. In addition, the Tai Chi CPU has the advantages of low power consumption and low price, Nebula Electronics also actively announced the design of public netbooks. Many experienced laptop foundries in China found that they only need to simply design the appearance and paste the company logo to launch their own brand laptops. This is the same as Nebula Electronics' strategy of using the "Spring" motherboard to control the low-priced mobile phone market, but it is undoubtedly a huge temptation for manufacturers who are eager to upgrade their brand and climb to the high end of the industrial chain.
Therefore, more than a dozen brands of netbooks were launched at this World Conference. Many domestic computer companies were ready to challenge old companies such as ibm or HP. The launch of "Yinyang" CPUs even made the market even more popular. Of course, the most eye-catching thing was the new generation of netbooks that Yang Xing personally displayed. He opened a large envelope and took out the 11-inch IPS HD screen from it. It was less than 3 cm thick and less than 2 kilograms of pure white appearance, and was amazed by the audience off the audience.
Due to the greatly reduced weight and thickness, the "Fantasy" netbook is thinner than all laptops at this time. It can be opened and closed with almost one hand. Its performance does not shrink at all, has low heat generation, and has a battery life of up to 5 hours. Its operating performance is no less than that of the low-frequency version of Intel Pentium chip. The biggest selling point is the IPS LCD screen using Corning's high-transparent glass, with a resolution of 1280x720. In 2002, it was like a high-tech product from aliens.
Of course, this is Yang Xing's Air laptop creativity that Apple made in his past life, but the "Yin Yang" CPU is very compatible with "Star Wars Linux" and Microsoft WinXP systems, which is better than Apple's self-admiration and self-created system. And the "Fantasy" netbook also retains the advantage of affordable netbook prices. Such a dazzling product is estimated to be only 20,000 yuan. Compared with the competitor's high-end laptop with a large industrial design, which is very fatal to consumers.
Industry insiders even saw the huge leap in Nebula's design and manufacturing strength from "Fantasy" netbooks. The production and processing level of "Fantasy" netbooks is not inferior to computer manufacturers such as Japan's Sony and the United States. It eliminates the old impression that Chinese manufacturers can only produce cheap supermarket goods. From the World Congress to the end, "Fantasy" netbooks received more than one million orders in just a few days, which made superstar computers very troubled to arrange production to meet demand.
"Fantasy" netbooks have attracted wide attention, and naturally they have become very interested in the advantages of "Yin and Yang" CPUs, such as low power consumption and low price. After watching the representatives of Intel's conference, Yang Xing used the "Fantasy" netbooks to use wifi to surf the Internet, and used Spark Browser and search engine to complete the commonly used online office and social chat applications in daily life, and wirelessly transmitted them to the large projection screen, his face was very bad.
It was then reported that Intel will soon launch a "Qinchi" CPU with Internet access functions and power consumption voltage that meet the needs of laptops. The industry leader also felt the huge pressure of "yin and yang" CPUs.
In addition to the "dream" netbook, the huge technological progress of Nebula Electronics is also reflected in another most eye-catching star product of the conference. That is, the world's first somatosensory game console jointly launched by Nebula Electronics and Nintendo Japan, which is a rare change in the name of Yang Xing's creative products since his rebirth. However, compared with the work of the same name in his previous life, the internal configuration of this home game console has changed greatly.
The appearance of the pure white host of wii looks similar to the "dream" netbook, and the internal hardware provided by Nebula Electronics is much higher than that of previous lives. After acquiring 3dfx, Nebula Electronics basically mastered the production technology of key components such as CPU, memory and graphics cards. The hardware level of wii naturally cannot repeat the mistakes that were lower than competitors Sony PPS2 and Microsoft Xbox game consoles in previous lives, and was criticized. During the live demonstration, the audience praised the 3D picture of wii's game.
For Wii, the picture and game performance are second-most important. The most important thing is the novel somatosensory operation mode. One of the two cuboid control rods control the direction, and the other somatosensory operator uses Bluetooth to make players not need traditional game controllers at all. They just need to stand in front of the TV screen and wave the control rods. They can turn into tennis rackets or fishing rods from the air, or even left shield and right sword to fight monsters on the TV.
This sense of liveness and realistic operation completely subverts the concept of previous game consoles. During the World Congress, there were long queues of people and dragons in the Wii trial area every day, many of which were elderly people and women, who were previously regarded as non-game people. You can imagine how popular this product will be after it was launched.
