Chapter 547: Planning for the Bird's Nest Exhibition, the Three Major Mobile Phone Giants Reunited in the Capital

October 23, Frost Descent.

Frost Descent is the eighteenth solar term in the twenty-four solar terms. It is the last solar term in autumn on October 23 or October 24 of the Gregorian calendar every year. Its arrival also means that the winter period is about to begin.

Imperial Capital, Bird's Nest Stadium.

After half a month of day and night shifts by workers, the Bird's Nest Stadium is now full of Longxing Group's "elements".

For example, at the ticket office, in addition to Chen Xing's three-dimensional license plate for group photos, the words "far ahead" are also posted on the outer wall of the ticket office.

Not only that, "far ahead" can be seen everywhere at several entrances to the Bird's Nest and the viewing seats in the internal venues.

The first feeling when entering the Bird's Nest is the endless "far ahead", as if there is a voice shouting:

"Far ahead!"

"Far ahead!"

"Far ahead of peers!"

"Far ahead, we are always ahead!"

The layout guide of the Bird's Nest is none other than Chen Xing himself.

Because the previous products were too "far ahead", these four words have been engraved in the DNA of every fan. As long as they are mentioned, they will definitely think of Longxing Group and Chen Xing.

"Longxing Annual Technology Exhibition" is a major press conference that Chen Xing has been preparing for nearly a year. He must control every detail.

In the previous Longxing Annual Meeting, he chose the venue of the Shanshui Base, a one-to-one replica of the "fake Bird's Nest".

But this time, he chose the real Bird's Nest!

Why did he come all the way to the capital to choose the Bird's Nest Stadium?

It's very simple.

The Bird's Nest represents the culture of Longguo going abroad.

Before the 2008 Imperial Capital Olympics, the world's awareness of Longguo was extremely low.

How low is it?

Let's put it this way. Even today, Longguo has achieved the point of maintaining the third place and striving for the first place in the military, economy, and technology fields, but there are still many foreigners who think that Longguo is still wearing braids and living a life of hunger and hunger.

It is conceivable how ignorant the world was about Longguo before the 2008 Imperial Capital Olympics.

It was also the Olympic Games that gradually made Longguo famous in the international community, and more and more foreigners came to travel and consume.

At first, many people did not understand why the country spent 40 billion US dollars to bid for the Olympic Games. Now looking back, the country's strategic vision is not something that ordinary people can understand.

Because this 40 billion not only made the country famous and promoted culture, but also brought a steady stream of foreign tourists and increased international trade orders. It was also after 2008 that Longguo's economy began to soar.

It is no exaggeration to say that this is a successful investment case that can be recorded in the history of Longguo in the past decade.

Let's not talk about the distant, just talk about the near.

Chen Xing spent 100 million Longguo yuan on the venue fee for renting the Bird's Nest for a month, which is equivalent to 3 million yuan a day.

This is just the venue fee, and there are also miscellaneous fees such as venue layout fees, material fees, worker fees, and personnel training. Roughly estimated, Chen Xing has spent nearly 130 million yuan for this press conference.

The continuous profit has long made the Bird's Nest Stadium earn back its investment.

It is worth mentioning that when Wang Fang learned that Chen Xing planned to rent the Bird's Nest to hold a press conference, she immediately contacted the general manager of the Bird's Nest Stadium and asked them to waive Chen Xing's rental fee for the venue, and to provide necessary support and assistance for the press conference within their capabilities to ensure a smooth curtain call.

If it were an ordinary person, they might have agreed directly, after all, just showing their face could save almost a small goal.

But Chen Xing is the CEO of the Trillion Group after all. Compared with a small goal, he cares more about the debt of favor, which cannot be measured by money, and must be cautious when owing.

Before the renovation of the Bird's Nest was completed, it attracted a group of anchors. They stood outside the Bird's Nest and introduced the details of the venue of the "Longxing Annual Technology Exhibition". Now that it has been completed, there are no less than a hundred anchors who have come to broadcast the details, covering all platforms.

Lin Xiaolong, the head of the B station digital product track live broadcast, arrived in the imperial capital early. After hearing that the Bird's Nest was open to the public, he immediately took a taxi to the Bird's Nest and opened the live broadcast room.

"Brothers, we have arrived at the Bird's Nest. Now we can see that there are elements of Longxing Group in such a large area outside the Bird's Nest, such as the "Yayao Yingxian" that can be seen everywhere, and the life-size stand of Mr. Chen next to me. We can take a group photo and check in."

Lin Xiaolong turned around and showed the general situation to the audience in the live broadcast room.

"Fuck, there is such a big "Yayao Yingxian" over there, and there is also a life-size stand of Mr. Chen, and there are also promotional posters over there. It feels like the Bird's Nest has already taken the shape of Longxing Group!"

"I also want to go to the capital, but unfortunately I didn't get a ticket for the press conference."

"Eighty thousand tickets were gone in the blink of an eye. If you don't know, you might think it's a celebrity concert. Tickets for this press conference are too hard to get."

"With so many "Yayao Yingxian", I don't know what big moves Mr. Chen has made. Will the flying car be unveiled?"

Looking at the barrage content floating by, Lin Xiaolong glanced at the Bird's Nest ticket office and said, "Since you are here, buy a ticket and go in to take a look. There may be many details inside that can be dug deeper."

He did it as he said.

He immediately came to the Bird's Nest ticket office.

As soon as he approached, before he could speak, the sharp-eyed staff immediately looked up and asked, "Handsome guy, do you want to buy a ticket?"

"How much?"

"50 yuan, the ticket expires today, it is not a ticket for the Longxing Group press conference, please be aware of this in advance."

"Then take one."

Lin Xiaolong took out his non-live broadcast mobile phone, scanned the payment QR code on the table, and then paid 50 yuan.

[Alipay arrived, 50 yuan. ]

After hearing the announcement of the arrival of the account, the staff immediately handed over a ticket and reminded: "There are a large number of surveillance cameras installed inside the Bird's Nest. Please pay attention to your personal behavior to avoid unnecessary disputes."

"OK."

Lin Xiaolong took the ticket and followed the instructions to the ticket gate of the Bird's Nest.

He was not in a hurry to check the tickets, but introduced to the audience in his live broadcast room: "This is one of the entrances to the Bird's Nest. We looked up. Just now we saw a small one hanging far ahead of the outer body in the distance. Now the big one is You can’t believe it, and along the way, it’s as if Mr. Chen is shouting in my ears that I’m ahead.”

"Hahaha, far ahead!"

"Being far ahead is really too brainwashing. Especially the words "way ahead" can be seen everywhere in the Bird's Nest. It's like Mr. Chen is shouting in my ears."

"Go in and take a look at Brother Long."

Lin Xiaolong didn't stop yet. After answering a few questions from the audience in the live broadcast room, he handed the tickets to the staff.

The staff member took the ticket and scanned the barcode of the ticket with the code scanning machine in his hand. When he heard a beep, he handed the ticket back and reminded: "There are a lot of surveillance inside the Bird's Nest. Please pay attention to your personal behavior to avoid causing any discomfort." necessary disputes.”

"OK."

Lin Xiaolong didn't care.

When he actually walked into the Bird's Nest, he hadn't walked for half a minute when he suddenly froze on the spot, because the golden hall was also full of elements of Longxing Group, or its development process.

For example, in 2014, Chen Xing released photos of the Longxing X1 press conference, as well as photos of the Cancan X1 press conference, Geek X1 press conference photos, Tianyu X1 press conference photos...

In addition to the process photos that can be seen everywhere, the Golden Hall also has many exhibitions, such as the world's first 120W star flash fast charge.

The world’s first general-purpose open space baseband chip.

The world's first foldable screen mobile phone.

The world's first conceptual model of a chip factory.

Each technological product on display has its own area and is protected by tempered glass. The embedded screen behind them also describes their detailed research and development experience, difficulties encountered and impact on the world.

For example, the introduction of 120W Star Flash fast charging requires solving the problems of metal contacts, power regulation chips, and current and voltage.

To solve the problem of metal contacts, industry standards must be overturned.

Because the traditional mini-B interface only has 5 metal contacts, while the more advanced type-C interface has 24.

For example, if you want to refuel a 100-ton vehicle, is it faster to refuel with one refueling port, or with two refueling ports at the same time?

You don't need to think about it to know that if you refuel with two refueling ports, it will definitely be faster than one.

But overturning past industry standards requires great courage.

This is similar to when you were in school. The teacher may have made a mistake on a certain question. Even if you know that he is wrong, you still need to be mentally prepared and have the courage to stand up and correct it.

Because you are not sure whether the correction will offend the teacher. After all, the teacher is the authority in the classroom. If you directly say that he is wrong, a small number of teachers who are more face-conscious will probably be unhappy.

"Every exhibit here has its research and development history and story written on it. I have to say that the ticket is worth buying."

Lin Xiaolong sighed.

He had just seen the research and development process, difficulties encountered and future impact of Kaitian baseband chips. For the first time, he intuitively felt in an all-round way how difficult it was for Longxing Group to make this journey.

Not only him, tens of thousands of viewers in the live broadcast room were talking about it.

"It turns out that the rumors were true. Gaotong not only engaged in global monopoly and increased prices at will, but also cooperated with Pineapple Company internally and externally to try to kill our other local mobile phone companies."

"Kaitian baseband chip is really a desperate move. At that time, Longxing Group's book capital was already less than 500,000 yuan!"

"Five hundred thousand, this is not broken?"

"The cost of chip tape-out is too high, plus the foundry fee. It's a miracle that Longxing Group survived!"

"I feel like Mr. Chen can write a book about his experiences. I will definitely collect it."

No one expected that the technological products displayed in the Golden Hall of the Bird's Nest would actually come with stories behind them.

As Lin Xiaolong's news spread on the Internet, more and more tourists who had arrived in the Imperial Capital, were still lying down in hotels, or going to the Forbidden City or the Great Wall to check in, came to the Bird's Nest to check in.

They are all spectators who have already grabbed tickets and are preparing to attend the science and technology exhibition.

Lin Xiaolong watched the stories behind them one by one, because ordinary people simply couldn't understand many things.

For example, the blockade and suppression of semiconductor chips. Who would have thought that three years ago, the advanced technologies of photolithography machines, semiconductor chip raw materials, and EDA chip design software were all firmly controlled by foreign countries?

Behind every chip represents a breakthrough in one or even several technologies.

…

And at the same time.

other side.

Rebus's imperial villa.

After learning that Chen Xing was going to hold a press conference, he hurried back to Long Kingdom and took Chen Xing to his home.

After the two briefly reminisced about old times, Rebus looked at the housekeeper at home and said, "Uncle Liu, take out the specialties of the Imperial Capital that I bought specially for Brother Chen and let him have a taste."

"OK."

Uncle Liu quickly went to make arrangements.

Chen Xing heard the conversation between the two and asked curiously: "What kind of specialty is it?"

"You'll find out later."

Rebus gave it a try.

After a while.

Uncle Liu picked up a bowl of bean juice, burnt rings, and authentic roast duck and placed them on the table in front of the two of them.

"Please use it slowly."

After Uncle Liu finished speaking, he stood aside.

Chen Xing looked at the bowl of soup on the table, swallowed his saliva and said, "Isn't this the legendary story where the business only relies on soybean juice from outsiders?"

Although he came to the Imperial Capital during this period, he spent most of his time preparing for the "Longxing Annual Science and Technology Exhibition" and did not hang out.

Although he has not experienced life in the imperial capital, he has heard of the famous bean juice.

After all, it is already very noisy on the Dragon Kingdom Internet, and there are signs of discerning who is more delicious, salty rice dumplings or sweet rice dumplings.

People who are not used to drinking it think it is like drinking water overnight, but people who like drinking it think it is a must-have drink to cool down and relieve the heat.

"That's right. This is specially prepared for you. When you come to our imperial capital, of course you have to experience the refreshing feeling brought by the bean juice."

Rebus smiled.

"Don't force yourself if you can't drink."

Ren Guofei, who was sitting aside, tried to persuade him.

Since the press conference was approaching, he didn't want to miss it, so he came to the Imperial Capital early to meet Chen Xing and Rebus.

"Then let me try?"

Chen Xing also wants to experience it.

For urban tourism, no matter what you like or don't like, you should maintain basic respect.

And traveling is not just about checking in at a place, it is actually about experiencing the local culture and enriching your life.

For example, if you are from the south and go to the north, you can try sweet rice dumplings and salty tofu, taste them to see if they taste good, and think about why they like to eat them.

In the same way, if you are from the north and go to the south, you can also eat salty rice dumplings, sweet tofu, or other things that are very different from the northern culture to experience the local culture.

It may seem uncomfortable, but it actually represents the history and culture of a certain place.

"Try it."

Rebus took out his phone in anticipation, wanting to record the scene of Chen Xing vomiting.

Of the ten southerners, not to mention nine, seven or eight were not used to Douzhi, so he just wanted to tease Chen Xing and capture that moment to post on WeChat Moments.

Chen Xing picked up the bowl, took a sip, and then put it down calmly.

"good."

he commented.

"Is it okay?" Rebus was stunned, and then asked: "How does it taste? Whether it tastes good or not, this is very important to me."

"Do you really want to say it?"

"You said, it's better to add some adjectives."

"Just what to say..."

Chen Xing thought about it carefully, then looked at Rebus and said, "This tastes a bit like licking the creaky nest of a 60-year-old man in 40-degree weather. It doesn't taste very good."
