Unparalleled True Technology

Chapter Eighty-Five They Are Right

At 10 a.m. on September 8, 2009, Apple's first product launch event officially began in the Harvard University auditorium.

At the same time, the images inside the auditorium were broadcast in real time to multiple public areas outside the auditorium. At this time, the number of students in the public areas exceeded 2,000.

And Facebook, which has 1 billion users, also pushed advertisements to all users immediately. The title of this advertisement is: A company that claims to have reinvented the mobile phone? The content of the ad is Apple's press conference.

In the auditorium, Peter made a simple opening speech as the host, and then Wen Ming walked out of the backstage amid applause.

The applause from the reporters and IT practitioners was all polite. Of course, there was also the reason why Wen Ming paid for their board, lodging and transportation expenses.

The applause from nearly 2,000 other students was very sincere, because Wen Ming's success made them all admire and envy, even those who were jealous would not be stingy with their applause .

"Thank you for coming..."

After the simple opening remarks, Wen Ming got to the point.

"In many people's minds, Apple is a game company, or a mobile game company."

Wen Ming's words, the person who touched the deepest was Downers from Microsoft. His WP system has been developed to the final stage of internal testing, which is almost complete. Therefore, he had time to watch Wen Ming's press conference.

"You are a genius and an idiot, and you actually sold Instagram."

Donalds commented on Wen Ming in this way, because in his opinion, Wen Ming has enough cash flow to take the ins product to a higher level. At that time, it will not be a mere $1 billion valuation. Of course, there is also the possibility of failure, but Wen Ming is only 19 years old at this time. If a 19-year-old young man is afraid of failure, what can he achieve?

"Danas, is this the person you saved?"

Watching the live broadcast with Downers was also the real person in charge of Microsoft's WP project. Because they heard that Apple's mobile phone is equipped with a brand-new mobile phone system, they decided to watch this conference.

The enemy can be underestimated, but the enemy must not be ignored.

"Yes, he is the one I saved."

Thinking of this, Downers suddenly laughed. Although he thought Wen Ming's decision to sell Instagram and invest in the mobile phone industry was idiotic, he had to admit that the man he rescued from the sea was really a genius.

In the auditorium of Harvard University, Wen Ming stood on the podium and talked freely.

"In fact, our slogan at Apple is: Born to Change the World! Of course, this sentence is actually an empty phrase I used to trick my bedmates into helping me start the company."

There was a chuckle at the scene, and most of the students in several nearby universities were familiar with the story of Wen Ming and his roommate.

"Nobody can change the world, not even the President of the United States."

Wen Ming looked at the 3,000 spectators with a smile on his face and said, "But apart from this world, we can change a lot."

On the stage background projection screen, the entry interface of Plants vs. Zombies appeared.

"For example, developing a game can change the attitude of many good students to study hard and make them waste their studies because of the game."

Laughter sounded again. The game of Plants vs. Zombies can be said to be popular all over the world. Among the students present, many of them missed the exam because they wanted to pass the game.

On the background curtain, the login interface of ins appeared again, and it quickly turned into tens of thousands of photos, with the world map as the background, constantly flashing and flowing.

"For example, develop a social software to change the behavior habits of many people, so that prayer before eating can be changed into taking a few photos and sharing them with others."

Facebook's push has been sent to more than 500 million users. The reason why it has not been promoted to all users is because this press conference is released in English, and only users who use the English interface client can receive the push.

Among these users, more than 30 million people clicked in because of the exaggerated title.

When they saw Wen Ming, they were still very unfamiliar, and they were not very familiar with Apple, but when Plants vs. Developed by Apple.

Just like some singers are not popular, even if Apple's Plants vs. Zombies, Instagram, and Talking Tom have become popular all over the world, not many people can remember the names of the companies that developed these programs.

"My good friend James asked me a question: Why are all these programs you develop are a waste of people's time?"

Wen Ming spread his hands towards the auditorium and said, "Do you think I wasted your time?"

There were many responses at the scene. After listening for a while, Wen Ming smiled and said: "It seems that a lot of people's time is indeed wasted. So, can you tell me, are you happy when using these programs?"

The response this time is relatively overall, because the software released by Apple is all entertainment software. Since it can be popular, it naturally brings a good mood to users.

And the online viewers who watched the live broadcast of the press conference all nodded in unison. Wen Ming's prelude had already attracted them in.

"Since everyone is happy, then we should keep going."

Wen Ming put away his smile and said: "But in the process of walking, we found a problem."

The promotional animation of "Candy Crush Saga" appeared on the background projection. After the development of this game was completed, it was not officially released, because Wen Ming needed it to increase the sales of iPhones.

"This is a elimination game developed by us. The rules are very simple, and it is not much different from elimination games."

Wen Ming introduced: "However, we have designed more elements for it to make it more playable."

"So, here comes the problem."

Wen Ming said seriously: "I found that most of the mobile phone products on the market can't run this game very well."

Some parameter requirements of the game "Candy Crush Saga" appeared on the screen. For many people, these parameters were a bit unfamiliar, but the vast majority of people at the scene could understand that they were either IT professionals or students from prestigious schools.

"Smartphones have been around for many years, but it's been two years since they really became popular."

Wen Ming said: "But the smartphones on the market are not made for games. This makes me, a developer who focuses on wasting everyone's time, feel very confused."

In fact, Wen Ming's original lines were based on the smartphones on the market, which couldn't keep up with the development of mobile games. As a result, both Sith and Peter denied it. When you have not really succeeded, offending other mobile phone manufacturers, and all of them, is not self-confidence but an idiot.

Wen Ming's joke made him laugh again, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "So, I thought, why can't I make a mobile phone so that it can be a game developed by me?"

This sentence made many people lose interest in an instant, because it sounded like Wen Ming had developed a game console that could make phone calls.

Just when many viewers on the Internet were about to turn off the live broadcast, Wen Ming said innocently: "I didn't expect that when the mobile phone I developed was manufactured, everyone who saw it said to me: You reinvented phone!"

"At first, I was blushing because of shyness, but when I started to try this phone, I found that..."

"They were right!"
