Pei Qian felt relieved seeing Jiang Yuan's confused expression.
If Jiang Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up and he came to a realization, that would be a huge problem.
As long as he maintained such a confused gaze, it was hard to say how the cell phone sales would be, but the news conference would probably be a failure.
Pei Qian did not intend to give Jiang Yuan a chance to get more 'success passwords' from him. He stood up decisively. "Alright, the content of the news conference has been decided. You can leave work happily!"
Jiang Yuan quickly said, "Er … Boss Pei, the overtime time I applied for is two hours. It's too fast. I'll stay and think about it."
Pei Qian was a little unhappy. "The overtime time is not important. What's important is how much work has been completed."
"It's not time yet, but the work has been completed. What's the point of staying here? It's May Day today. Hurry up and go back to rest! "
"The overtime pay will be the same as before. I won't pay a single cent less."
Jiang Yuan declined again. "No, Boss Pei. I still have to think about it. I promise that I'll leave immediately after two hours!"
Seeing how determined he was, Pei Qian could not chase him out directly. After all, they had agreed on two hours.
At that thought, Pei Qian compromised. "Alright, be more self-aware. Go home immediately after two hours."
He was about to leave when Jiang Yuan suddenly asked, "Boss Pei, wait a moment. I have one last question!"
"The advantages and disadvantages of the cell phone … are the advantages first or the disadvantages first?"
Pei Qian was stunned.
Good fellow, I'm about to leave, and you still haven't forgotten to trick me?
He subconsciously wanted to say 'advantages first', but he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
The E1 cell phone from before had been the advantages first, but something big had happened!
Pei Qian recalled carefully. At that time, the E1 cell phone's news conference had first mentioned the price. Then, Chang You had used a speed recital to explain the advantages of the cell phone. Finally, he had said the disadvantages of the cell phone.
In the end, the first part was too exciting. The audience had all ignored the shortcomings of the cell phone.
Therefore, he could not make the same mistake again!
Pei Qian immediately said, "The disadvantages first! What's more, don't announce the price at the beginning. Put it at the end like other news conferences! "
Jiang Yuan's mouth opened slightly. Obviously, this was not the answer he had been expecting.
If Boss Pei said 'advantages first', then he could analyze the E1 cell phone's news conference previously and gain some inspiration.
However, Boss Pei had said 'shortcomings first'. That meant that he had overturned all the experience of the previous news conferences!
Pei Qian smiled. Trying to trick me? You are still too inexperienced!
Pei Qian was in a great mood when he saw Jiang Yuan's confused expression. He left smugly.
Jiang Yuan frowned as he watched Boss Pei leave. He began to think hard about what Boss Pei had said previously.
He couldn't figure it out!
No matter how he thought about it, it didn't make sense.
After thinking hard for a while, he still had no clue. He could only start to change the powerpoint.
After making a copy of the original PowerPoint, Jiang Yuan began to edit the contents of the PowerPoint according to Boss Pei's requirements. He removed those that should be removed, merged those that should be merged, and left enough pages for expansion.
After spending ten minutes fiddling around, Jiang Yuan roughly changed the framework of the powerpoint. Nearly half of the original dozens of pages of the powerpoint had been cut.
He had previously introduced the Otto OS in a large part.
The evolution of the OS in this year had all been cut. He had also introduced the application of AEEIS's artificial intelligence technology in cell phones and the AEEIS Smart Bickering Machine. On the other hand, the shortcomings of the cell phone and the immature areas of the new technology used had to be written about.
The advantages of the cell phone were all condensed into one page, while the disadvantages were at least a dozen pages.
Jiang Yuan was depressed.
In fact, the powerpoint of the E1 cell phone's news conference was similar to this structure. However, there was a huge difference between these two cell phones.
That was because the E1 cell phone was a traditional cell phone. Its advantages were real, such as strong configurations, long battery life, very good supporting services, and so on.
Consumers would be able to feel these advantages very directly as long as they were listed.
After that, the disadvantages of the E1 cell phone were introduced. That was because the advantages were so outstanding that the disadvantages seemed harmless. Thus, the audience could accept them.
However, the G1 cell phone was completely different.
It was a cell phone that made use of many new technologies. It could be said to not be very practical, but it was very exploratory.
It was different from the E1 cell phone. The advantages of the G1 cell phone were not easy to sense, but the disadvantages were real.
For example, the full-screen technology was nothing more than a slightly bigger screen for most people. It looked much better, but their perception would not be particularly strong.
The problem brought about by the full-screen technology was that the pop-up camera would take up more space inside the cell phone. The cell phone would become bigger, the heat dissipation would become worse, the water and dust resistance would become worse, and the call quality would also decrease.
All of these would affect the customer's experience.
Thus, if the G1 cell phone were to do this again, customers would not think that these shortcomings were harmless. Instead, they would think that these shortcomings were enough to overturn all the previous advantages.
What's more, the previous news conference had placed the price segment at the beginning. If the same thing were to happen again this year, not only would it not have the same effect as last year, but it might also backfire and cause consumers to feel disgusted.
That was because last year's news conference was equivalent to a performance. It could not be done twice in a row. That would be too outdated and become a lousy job.
Thus, no matter how Jiang Yuan thought about it, he felt that something was wrong with the content of the news conference.
"What's wrong?"
"Boss Pei looks so confident. It's obvious that he has a well-thought-out plan. However, why can't I understand what Boss Pei is thinking … "
"Calm down. We can't be anxious at this time. We have to slowly analyze Boss Pei's intentions."
"…"
"Boss Pei said that the cell phone's shortcomings should be mentioned first."
"What's more, the price segment should not be placed at the front. It should be placed at the end like other cell phones."
"Does Boss Pei mean to say that it should be as mediocre as other cell phone news conferences? Impossible. Boss Pei just told me that this is a cell phone filled with innovation. The news conference should also be filled with innovation! "
"Could it be that … the key is to put the shortcomings first?"
"Repeatedly talk about the shortcomings of various new technologies. They even took up most of the space of the entire news conference. They only mentioned the advantages at the end and then came up with the price segment …"
"I understand now!"
Jiang Yuan read the PowerPoint twice after adjusting the order. Suddenly, his eyes lit up as he understood what Boss Pei meant!
"What would be the result of talking first about the defects of these new technologies, and doing so in detail and repeatedly? It would make the audience think that the development of this cell phone is very difficult. These new technologies are not very practical, and the cost is very high. Most likely, there are only technologies and no products, or only concept phones that cannot be mass-produced. "
"However, in fact, these technologies can already be mass-produced. The other cell phone manufacturers are also trying to use them. However, they are not as bold as us. They only tried to use a small portion of these technologies, but we piled them all up."
"Therefore, I should not call this news conference a cell phone news conference. I should call it a 'New Technology Exchange and Sharing Conference'!"
"That way, the audience would not think that I'm here to sell cell phones, and they would not have any expectations for this. They would only think that these are some very cutting-edge and immature technologies in the cell phone industry. Most likely, there are no prototypes."
"However, in the end, the price segment would appear on the screen. It would make them instantly realize that so many difficult technologies can already be mass-produced and sold!"
"Thus, this surprise would completely dilute the impression left by the various shortcomings of the cell phone. Customers would be much more tolerant of it because it is an exploratory concept cell phone."
"At the same time, because of this surprise, customers would not think that the price is especially expensive."
"In other words, the same product would have a completely different effect if it was introduced in a different way and from a different angle!"
"This should be the effect that Boss Pei wants to achieve!"
Jiang Yuan suddenly had an epiphany. Everything from before matched up!
He looked at his watch. Two hours had passed since Boss Pei arrived. The quota was just right.
"Perfect!"
"Get someone to change the PowerPoint after the holiday. Hurry up and prepare for the news conference. We must not disappoint Boss Pei!"
