Downstairs of Future Building, reporters from major newspapers and media outlets surrounded the building. The security personnel gestured to each other, pulled up the orange cordon, and guided these excited people to the right position to prevent accidents such as pushing and stampeding.
Future Technology was hosting a product conference, and Jiang Chen would be there to host it.
Outside the venue, there were heavily armed Celestial Trade soldiers, helicopters hovering in the air, snipers deployed on the buildings in the distance, and the "hive" of Hummingbird drones lurking in the shadows. In terms of security level, the specifications of this conference were definitely higher than the president's speech.
This conference had been planned since the beginning of the year.
From the first announcement of its entry into mobile device manufacturing to the graphene technology breakthrough and the acquisition of Nippon electronics companies, Future Technology had been preparing for this day for a long time. And for the arrival of this day, both the media and the public were full of expectations.
Future Technology, which had been committed to the forefront of technology, what kind of shocking product would it bring out? As early as three days before the conference, major social media platforms and forums had already begun to discuss.
Future Technology also fanned the flames by hanging a black phone silhouette on the official website with three deliberately mystifying greetings and a countdown to the start of the conference. The official website would cooperate with Xin Radio and Television to broadcast the conference live on the official website and the television station, and 100 lucky viewers would be selected for free.
For the arrival of this day, Future Technology had prepared enough gimmicks!
Before the live broadcast even started, the black screen was already filled with layers of comments.
"Hurry up and announce it! Fu * k, I've been waiting for a week! "
"You've only been waiting for a week, I've been waiting since the year before last."
"Dumbass, the year before last, what do you know! Future Technology first announced its plan to enter mobile devices at the beginning of last year. There should be a limit to pretending to know! "
"When will the lucky draw be opened? Is it fine to just hang it here? "
"…"
In the backstage of the conference, Jiang Chen leaned back in his chair, crossed his legs, and looked at the official website of Future Technology through the holographic screen on his watch. He couldn't help but smile. Before the live broadcast began, the number of online viewers had jumped to 11 million, and it continued to refresh.
At the same time, Future Technology's official website had been attacked by more than one hundred thousand hackers since the morning. However, with the combination of artificial intelligence firewalls and quantum computing, hackers that could break through Future Group's defenses hadn't been born yet.
"This Ning Huajian really has some skills. Even I, the nominal chief designer, am looking forward to it."
Xia Shiyu stood next to the curtain with her arms crossed. Seeing that Jiang Chen was not nervous at all, she coughed.
"Are you all ready?"
"Don't worry, it's not the first time." Jiang Chen smiled, turned off the holographic screen on the watch, stood up, and looked at Xia Shiyu. "How long until it starts?"
"Thirty-five minutes."
"Looks like there's still some time. I'll go to the bathroom first."
He waved his hand and walked in the direction of the bathroom.
…
Thirty minutes before the start of the press conference, the reporters and special guests were allowed to enter the venue. The venue of thousands of square meters suddenly became crowded with the continuous influx of people. It had been rehearsed countless times, and the staff skillfully maintained the order of the scene.
The venue was bustling with noise. Before the conference started, the reporters were either checking the speeches or whispering to their peers for information. Judging from the enthusiasm of the venue, people who didn't know better would think it was a concert hosted by a rock star.
Suddenly, the lights on the stands lit up, and the entire venue instantly became silent. The reporters with cameras all pointed their lenses toward the stage, and the slowly opened curtain captured everyone's heartbeat.
The lights converged on the center of the stage, and Jiang Chen walked out from behind the curtain. Under the thunderous applause and cheers, he stood in front of the stage.
The giant screen behind him flashed the logo of Future Technology. With his first opening remarks, countless light particles spread out on the screen and intertwined into twelve languages.
Real-time translation!
One of the black technologies of Future Technology!
"Thank you, reporters and special guests, and the audience watching the live broadcast online and on TV. Thank you for your continued support and expectations for Future Technology. Please believe me, I will not disappoint your expectations. "Jiang Chen said his opening remarks with a smile.
Xia Shiyu, who stood backstage, held her breath.
In just two minutes, the number of online viewers on the official website had exceeded 100 million!
Looking at the pairs of widened eyes in the audience and the expectation in their pupils, Jiang Chen deliberately paused for two seconds, then smiled and extended his hand. "Future."
When Jiang Chen read out the word, the reporters were obviously taken aback and didn't understand what he meant. It wasn't until the beam of light gathered in Jiang Chen's hand that they saw the … piece of paper in his hand?
Yes, it was like a piece of paper.
When the phone named "future" appeared on the big screen behind Jiang Chen, as well as its thickness, length, width, pixels, CPU, and other parameters, everyone's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
0.1mm！
It was almost only the thickness of an A4 paper!
Is this really a phone?!
Almost everyone had the same thought in their minds.
This was not scientific!
But then, Jiang Chen used practical actions to prove to them what real science was.
"From the display to the shell, the structure of the Future phone is completely made of graphene material, so it is very, very thin, very, very light, very soft, and almost transparent."
Then, Jiang Chen let go of his hand.
Under everyone's gaze, the paper-thin phone floated from his hand to the ground, and the reporters closer to the stands stretched their necks. He was sure that he didn't even hear the sound of the phone falling to the ground, and he didn't see where the phone fell!
Then the question was.
Since it was transparent, what if the phone accidentally fell?
This question popped up in most people's minds at the same time after witnessing this scene. On the official website, the live broadcast screen was almost flooded with similar questions.
However, the audience didn't keep this question on their minds for long, and Jiang Chen quickly answered this question.
"I know what you are worried about, such as whether this phone falling to the ground means you will lose it forever. Next, I will tell you that your worries are completely superfluous. "
Jiang Chen bent down, picked up the "piece of paper" from the ground, and shook it to the audience.
"When the phone enters standby mode, the fluorescent material built-in in the graphene material will outline the phone screen with lines and display the time in the center of the screen. Of course, if you don't like it to display the time at any time, you can also disable this function in the settings. "
Raising the Future phone, Jiang Chen folded it in half into an arc amidst the incredulous exclamations of the people, and showed its powerful shaping function to the people.
"The graphene material is very soft. You can bend it into a circle and wear it on your wrist like a watch. You can also fold it into a wallet, roll it up and stuff it into a cigarette box, or even fold it into a paper airplane and throw it into your neighbor's house … Of course, I don't recommend you do this."
Friendly laughter came from the audience.
At this point, everyone thought that the functions of the first graphene phone had been introduced. Some reporters had already begun to organize their notes, and at the same time, they were thinking about what questions to ask later. Based on the arbitrary folding function alone, this phone was already worthy of the title "Future", worthy of the expectations of countless people for nearly a year.
However, when everyone thought so, Jiang Chen smiled and opened his mouth again.
"However, these functions are not the focus of my introduction today."
Jiang Chen smiled mysteriously and shook the Future phone on his wrist that was rolled into the shape of a watch.
That look was like a magician.
"Next, let's witness a miracle together!"
