The student who asked the question said thoughtfully, "I think I understand now, Professor Chen Mo. You're saying that the performance of a handheld console can surpass that of a mobile phone, and can even run some high capacity open world games. But is that even possible? "
Chen Mo laughed, "With the current level of technology, there's no problem at all. The only reason why no one has done it is because everyone has made a mistake."
Chen Mo continued speaking, but the lecturers and professors at the back also had a look of doubt on their faces.
Although what Chen Mo said made sense, it was completely against the common sense of the gaming industry. The lecturers didn't dare to interrupt Chen Mo, nor did they dare to question him. This was because what Chen Mo said was a matter of opinion, and there was no definite answer.
Chen Mo said that there was still room for handheld consoles in this world. To prove this point, there had to be a handheld console that could take the world by storm, or at least take the country by storm.
But there wasn't any at the moment.
Of course, Chen Mo could say that it was because the manufacturers of handheld consoles in this world were trash, and they couldn't make the handheld that he envisioned.
Chen Mo didn't dwell too much on this point, and continued speaking according to his plan. However, this question was deeply rooted in many people's minds.
…
Chen Mo's first lecture went very smoothly. This was because he was eloquent to begin with, and his knowledge of gaming was much higher than the average scholar. Many students felt that they had benefited a lot from his lecture.
However, as the relevant videos were posted on the official websites, voices of doubt began to appear.
Most of the doubts were focused on one point. Chen Mo said that there was still room for handheld consoles in this era. Was this nonsense?
"Aren't handheld consoles an antique that has long been eliminated? Now that smartphones are so developed, what games can't be played? Why would people go out of their way to buy handheld consoles? "
"Yeah, I also think that Chen Mo is taking it for granted. Maybe it's because he has some interest in handheld consoles that he thinks other people like to play them?"
"This is a university classroom. Isn't Chen Mo misleading the students? Although it's fine to talk about untested theories, it's obviously a fallacy, and it's obviously irresponsible to talk about it. "
"I also think that this is Chen Mo's first lecture, and he doesn't know his limits. He's talking too much."
Many people were using this as an excuse to force Chen Mo to apologize and admit that he had misled the students and made the wrong remarks.
Chen Mo's relationship with people in the gaming industry was alright, but his relationship with the distributors could only be described as fire and water. One could imagine that there would definitely be a lot of bad guys jumping out when something like this happened.
These people had an ulterior motive. If Chen Mo apologized and said that he was wrong, it would obviously show that Chen Mo wasn't professional enough. It was also a blow to his reputation.
In the designers' chat group, this matter had also caused a lot of heated discussions.
"What's going on? Is Boss Chen Mo here? "
"What happened?"
"I think Sir Chen Mo made a common mistake in his lecture at World University. In the end, a bunch of haters got hold of it and used it as a pretext to make a fuss. Now, it's causing quite a stir on the internet. "
"How could that be? How could Chen Mo make such a common mistake? "
"What kind of common sense mistake is it?"
"I think Boss Chen Mo said that there's still room for survival in this era."
"… That doesn't seem very appropriate, but it shouldn't be a big problem. Why are there so many people holding onto it? Maybe it was just a slip of the tongue. "
"Someone must be trying to stir up trouble!"
As they were chatting, Chen Mo replied, "Why do you all think that it's wrong?"
Everyone was a little confused.
Although everyone was surprised that Chen Mo was exposed, why did it seem like Chen Mo didn't think that he was wrong?
Zhang Xiaokong typed, "Currently, the mainstream view in the industry is that the handheld is a product that should be eliminated!"
Chen Mo retorted, "Is the mainstream view necessarily correct?"
Everyone was dumbfounded. What's going on? Is Chen Mo still so confident? The one in the wrong isn't me, but the world?
Zhang Xiaokong, "Chen Mo, you can't say that. The main thing is that you can't prove what you said, aren't you just causing trouble for yourself? "
Chen Mo typed, "I can prove it!"
"Huh?" Zhang Xiaokong was shocked, "You can prove it? How are you going to prove it? Can you make a handheld that will sell well? "
Chen Mo replied, "Yeah, I'm planning to make a handheld that will sell well."
Everyone was speechless.
The group instantly fell silent, and no one knew how to respond.
It was no wonder, Chen Mo's statement was a little too shocking!
Why would a video game designer like you want to make your own handheld? You can make something that so many other hardware designers haven't been able to make?
Moreover, not many people make handheld consoles!
However, since everyone in the group was Chen Mo's friends, they didn't ask any further after knowing that Chen Mo had a plan.
As for whether or not it could be done, they would only know after Chen Mo made his own handheld …
…
Even after Chen Mo returned to the Imperial Capital, there were still many people discussing this topic online. Obviously, it wouldn't stop anytime soon.
Some of these people were fake reviewers, adding fuel to the fire, while others really didn't believe in Chen Mo's statement.
Chen Mo laughed. Since you guys are helping me gain popularity, I might as well freeload on it.
Chen Mo posted on Weibo, "Seems like a lot of people don't think I can make a handheld? Don't worry, you'll all agree with me after I make it. "
Isn't it just making a handheld? I can do it.
The technology of the parallel world was more advanced than Chen Mo's previous world, so making a handheld wasn't difficult at all. However, because of the concept, many people felt that a handheld wouldn't be needed if they had a phone, so no one really researched it.
If Chen Mo wanted to make a handheld, he didn't actually need to design it himself. All he needed to do was to come up with the concept of the handheld and find a reliable manufacturer to manufacture it for him.
Just like in Chen Mo's previous world, many mobile phone manufacturers were also OEM manufacturers. Take Xiaomi for example. She made mobile phones, computers, electric lights, and even plug boards. Making so many things was actually just for the design, then finding a manufacturer to manufacture it and selling it online.
Similarly, Chen Mo didn't need to make the handheld himself, all he needed to do was leave the design to the professionals.
But even so, it was still very shocking!
Many of the netizens were shocked. Chen Mo's temper … was really something!
"What the, he's really making a handheld just to prove his point? Chen Mo is so f * cking awesome … "
"I respect you for being a man. When the grass on your grave grows, I'll go back and burn some incense for you …"
"Chen Mo … won't admit his mistake? Is he getting too full of himself? "
"I think Chen Mo is so confident that he can make a handheld!"
"The key isn't making it, it's getting people to buy it!"
"Awesome, it doesn't matter if Chen Mo succeeds or not, just his' I'll do it 'attitude is worth learning from!"
Some people were shocked, some were pessimistic, but in general, after Chen Mo announced that he was going to make a handheld, no one went after him anymore, as there was no point in arguing.
Who was right and who was wrong would only be known when the handheld was made!
… …
By the time Chen Mo returned to the experience store, the news had already spread like wildfire.
Qian Kun said in shock, "Manager, it's only been two days since we last met, how did you make such big news? Are you really going to make a handheld? "
Chen Mo nodded, "Why?"
Qian Kun asked, "What about us? Are we going to make a handheld too?"
