This press conference was held in the large arena in the west of the Magic City.

This arena is usually used for martial arts competitions and is the most popular place among citizens in the Magic City.

The grandstand in the arena has a total of more than 70,000 seats and an open space of more than 100,000 square meters.

Zhou Ming asked people to set up a large stage in the middle and rear of the arena, and three large PPT projection screens were placed behind the stage.

There are two large PPT projection screens on both sides of the arena.

In the open space of the arena, more than 30,000 seats are placed.

Plus more than 70,000 seats in the stands.

The entire arena can accommodate 100,000 spectators.

And in order to prepare for this press conference, Zhou Ming spent a lot of money and placed advertisements on the Magic City's city radio for more than a month. Not only did they have some brainwashing advertising slogans, but they also let experts reveal it every day. Some product details and the powerful functions of the product.

Various marketing methods have whetted the appetite of citizens.

And the tickets to attend the press conference are not expensive. Except for some of the better seats at the front, which cost money, more than 60,000 tickets are given out for free, so all 100,000 tickets are sold out.

So on the night of January 18th, how many spectators entered the venue with tickets?

About 88,000 people entered the venue...all three races including humans, orcs, and dwarves.

Zhou Ming discovered that there were approximately 30,000 orcs, occupying almost all the seats in the stands on the south side of the arena.

There are nearly 40,000 humans, occupying all the seats in the stands on the north side.

Moreover, the two sides are clearly separated. Where the orcs gather, you can't see a human being, and where the humans gather, you can't see a single orc.

The dwarves sit in the open area in the middle, with more than 5,000 people.

There are also more than 10,000 VIP seats with the best view and closest to the stage. Most of those sitting on them are senior members of the Magic Association and the middle and upper class with a higher quality of life... This upper class in the Magic City, the human race They account for the vast majority, with the orcs and dwarves accounting for less than 10%.

In fact, in the Magic City, the population of orcs and dwarves is still quite large, accounting for about 40%, and the total number exceeds 400,000.

But at the top of the pyramid, their ratio is less than 10%.

What causes this?

It has to do with the situation in the outside world.

Outside the Magic City, humans are the overlords of the land. 28 powerful human empires are directly connected to the Magic City. Hundreds of top foreign talents can be imported into the Magic City every year. The kingdoms of the orcs and dwarves are located in They are remote and have difficulty dealing with humans, so the number of talents imported by these two races every year is 0.

In this way, in the upper class, the gap between the three races has completely widened, and the human race has an absolute advantage and has become absolutely dominant.

But Zhou Ming did not discriminate against the orcs and dwarves.

Both races have their advantages.

For example, orcs are strong, hard-working, honest, and very united, loyal, brave, and loyal. The disadvantage is that their IQ is slightly low.

Dwarves are short in stature and have a very honest personality. They have a unique racial talent for utensils. The tools, parts and equipment they make are durable and of high quality. Their shortcomings are that they have a bad temper and like to drink strong alcohol...but sometimes they can be tough and soft-hearted.

Although most of Zhou Ming's 100-person technical team are humans, there is also one orc and five dwarves... They all made their contributions in the development process of the magic phone.

7pm.

The product launch conference officially begins.

Zhou Ming, who was wearing a black crew-neck shirt and blue-gray jeans, made a brief opening statement and then grandly launched the product developed by his team - the Magic Phone.

On the huge PPT projection screen, there was a product photo of a silver-black casing, a brick-shaped structure, a half-finger-long cylindrical antenna on the top of the upper right corner, a 2.5-inch capacitive screen on the upper part, and 7 rows of 28 buttons on the lower part.

and named it:

"Its name is Nokia 001. It is the first magic phone developed by our technical team..."

"It has many functions. It can be used to make calls, set up address books, send text messages, set alarm clocks, use calculators, serve as lighting flashlights, play mini-games, receive wireless broadcasts, crack nuts, and more than ten powerful functions! "

"Next, let our talented engineers show you these functions one by one!"

good!

Although Magic Smartphone is good, Zhou Ming still has not given up on Nokia.

Indeed, in his eyes, Nokia has fewer functions and is very rubbish, but for this world without mobile phones, the emergence of Nokia is completely an artifact!

What's more, Nokia phones are of good quality, have a long service life, and have many functions that are amazing to the natives of this world.

The most important thing is that Nokia's production costs are low and the process is simple, which ensures high profit margins.

If Zhou Ming didn't bring such a good product to the market, his colleagues wouldn't agree, thinking it would be a waste of resources!

So as early as two months ago, Zhou Ming established a production line. After two months of continuous operation, there are currently a large number of Nokia 001 in stock in the warehouse.

So for the next hour or so.

Regarding the various functions of the magic phone Nokia 001, more than a dozen technical supervisors took the stage one by one and demonstrated the technical principles and powerful functions of Nokia 001 one by one through various methods such as pictures, videos and on-site demonstrations in PPT. .

From the main functions of making phone calls, sending text messages, and managing address books to the later functions of setting alarm clocks, playing mini-games, listening to the radio, and calculators... the introduction of each function can arouse exclamations from the audience.

In particular, games such as "Tetris" and "Snake" demonstrated live by Babbitt, the head of the game department, attracted at least 300 spectators to come on stage to try them out. Everyone who tried them found it very interesting!

In addition, when introducing the "calculator" function, the organizer selected 30 experts from the scene who considered themselves to be "strong in arithmetic" and held a man-machine battle. A total of ten more complex addition and subtraction arithmetic questions were prepared. Who will win? If the speed exceeds the "calculator", anyone will be directly rewarded with a Nokia 001 magic phone!

As a result, after 10 rounds of human-machine battles, only one human contestant managed to win once and received a Nokia 001.

There are also flashlights, wireless broadcasts and other functions at the back, all exactly as described in the PPT, without any false propaganda!

What caused the most exclamation in the audience was the quality demonstration session of Nokia 001. When the quality department director Varok Tiezhu held a sledgehammer in his left hand and a "stone fruit" said to be the hardest in the world in his right hand, he placed it on the The rear case cover of Nokia 001 was hit with a hammer.

The Orc Stand to the south suddenly erupted into thunderous cheers!

"Varok Iron Pillar!"

"Varok Iron Pillar!"

"Varok Iron Pillar!"

It turns out that the quality department director appointed by Zhou Ming, Varok Tiezhu, is a young and strong orc. He is very talented, but at the age of 28, he has the strength of a great swordsman. He is quite popular among the orcs. In addition, he works hard and diligently. , and very motivated and smart, Zhou Ming promoted him to head of the quality department.

But he didn't expect that Varok Tiezhu would cause such a big stir as soon as he came on stage. He even made the orcs stand up collectively and chant his name together, as if they regarded him as a great hero among the orcs.

From this action alone, Zhou Ming saw the unity of the orcs.

Of course, when Varok Iron Pillar hammered it down, the stone fruit would definitely be broken, but what about the Nokia phone?

Pick it up and take a look.

In perfect condition!

Not even a trace of obvious deformation.

After using it a few more times, all functions still work normally!

Suddenly there was even more cheers below!

"Oooh~!"

"Awesome, this thing is awesome!"

"I want to buy one, I want to buy one!"

“I want to play the little games inside the most!”

"The quality of this thing called a mobile phone is so good. I want to buy one and go back to smash it!"

"This...this kid did it, he actually did it?"

In the VIP seating area, Elder Wolf, the president of the Magic Association, who was sitting in the middle of the first row, was extremely shocked at this moment!

good! Unlike other viewers who thought it was "magical", "interesting" and "fun", what he felt at this moment was shock!

So many practical and convenient functions are integrated into a palm-sized mobile phone. Ordinary people would not say that it is impossible, and they would not even imagine it!

Because that's simply impossible!

Lao Lang is one of those people who thinks it's impossible.

But that kid really made something, and more than ten functions that should be included were integrated into what he called a "mobile phone"!

In just half a year, the “impossible” was turned into a product in front of us!

At this moment, even Old Wolf himself realized that after the launch of the magic phone, the magic phone that the Magic Association has used for millions of years will be declared obsolete!

Because it’s him, if someone asks him to choose a “magic phone” or a “magic phone”, he will 100% choose the magic phone!

Because the conveniences this thing brings are too many.

He sighed in his heart: This boy has created another miracle that I could not imagine.

"Then, the question that everyone is most concerned about is, how much does this Nokia 001 Magic Phone cost?"

The press conference on the stage continued, and Zhou Ming returned to the stage to host.

Hearing the price, the scene instantly became quiet. Everyone pricked up their ears, wanting to hear the price of the mobile phone to see if it was expensive or not.

Old Wolf also pricked up his ears and muttered in his heart: Such a powerful mobile phone should not be cheap.

"Not expensive."

Zhou Ming stretched out a finger and said, "This mobile phone is not expensive. For 100 contribution points, you can buy it."

"Of course, if the contribution points are not enough, you can also use purple gold coins to buy it. For 500 purple gold coins, you can also buy this phone."

"If you don't have enough purple gold coins, you can also choose a mixed payment method. For example, you can buy this phone by spending 50 contribution points and 250 purple gold coins."

“Of course, for people with relatively poor families, whether it is 100 contribution points or 500 purple gold coins, it may not be a small amount, and our original intention of manufacturing this mobile phone is to make Nokia mobile phones affordable for everyone in the world. "

"So we have launched a promotion. Anyone who attends the conference tonight will get a 50% discount on Nokia mobile phones as long as they use their tickets to buy them in the store."

Zhou Ming held out five fingers: "Yes, you heard me right! If you buy with a ticket, you will get a 50% discount. Please keep the tickets in your hands properly!"

Wow~

There was a commotion at the scene. Some people solemnly folded the tickets in their hands and put them in the innermost pockets of their clothes.

"Where's my ticket? Where's my ticket? Can you help me find the ticket?" There are also people who have thrown away their tickets and are looking for their discarded tickets in a panic.

"So after the 50% discount, the Nokia Magic Phone is priced at only 50 contribution points or 250 purple gold coins. Do you still think it is expensive?" Zhou Mingba asked in a loud voice.

"Not expensive!" Many voices replied together.

"Not only is it not expensive, I doubt you can make a penny!" Old Wolf shook his head, such a good magic phone, this guy is selling it for a bargain price?

“Can everyone afford it?”

"affordable!!"

"Okay!" Zhou Ming nodded and said, "Then let's start releasing our second magic phone, which is also the first high-end magic smartphone - Love Crazy 1."

What?

The audience was stunned.

And a magic phone?
