May 3rd, Thursday …
5 PM.
It was still the largest five-star hotel in Jingzhou City, the Oasis Four Seasons Hotel.
Otto E1's news conference was also held in the banquet hall of this hotel.
The same location, similar products, but the time had been changed.
Previously, E1's news conference was held at 3 PM on Sunday. This time, G1's news conference was held at 5 PM on Thursday. What's more, it was the first working day after the May Day holiday.
Obviously, Pei Qian had specially designated this time.
Chang You had set the time for the news conference previously. Pei Qian had not asked about it. Now that he thought about it, there was a huge problem: Sunday was a holiday after all. There was too much traffic online. The news conference immediately became popular on Aili Island and attracted widespread attention.
Thus, Pei Qian had specially set the news conference for G1's cell phone at this very awkward time.
First of all, this was the first working day after the May Day holiday. It was everyone's first day at work. They were probably in low spirits. The work piled up during the holiday made most people feel overwhelmed. They should not be in the mood to pay attention to the news conference. Secondly, 5 PM was neither up nor down. If it was earlier, at 3 PM, the office workers might have just woken up from their afternoon naps. They might be able to see some news about the news conference. If it was later, after 7 PM, everyone would have gotten home from work. They could also take time to eat and watch the news conference.
It was set at 5 PM. Everyone was eager to return home and began to think about what to eat tonight. They could definitely minimize the impact of this news conference!
The audience at the news conference was still mainly made up of technology media colleagues and loyal customers in Jingzhou. They were all free tickets. Technology media from other cities would still cover the day's food and accommodation, as well as the round-trip transportation expenses.
In any case, he would not be frugal where he could spend money.
Just like the last time, Pei Qian arrived at the venue a little earlier and found a seat to sit down.
Soothing and elegant music was playing at the venue. The audience entered and took their seats. Many colleagues from the technology media could be seen holding cameras and filming. The popularity seemed to be much higher than the news conference for E1's cell phone.
Pei Qian adhered to the principle of changing places after shooting. He had sat in the corner of the venue at the previous news conference. This time, he was sitting in the middle of the venue, about the fifth row. The people sitting in front of him were reporters from various technology media, as well as video UP Masters of the technology area.
Unlike the previous E1 cell phone news conference, the big screen this time did not light up after the news conference officially began. Instead, it lit up in advance. Apart from the countdown, there were a few lines of words.
"Otto Technologies' Embrace the Future Exchange and Sharing Meeting."
The words' Otto Technologies' had the logo of Tengda Corporation and Otto Technologies behind them. The words' Embrace the Future 'were written in a special font that was the most eye-catching.
The whole picture looked simple and elegant, with a slight sense of technology.
Pei Qian did not pay much attention to it. It was just a news conference. It did not matter what the name was. Many cell phone manufacturers liked to do fancy things at press conferences and come up with some inexplicable names to highlight their pretentiousness. For example, "Multidimensional Liquid Cooling System" was nothing more than adding some graphite to heat it. It sounded nice, but it was still the same thing, with only minor differences.
In any case, the news conference was going to release G1 cell phones. No matter what the name was, it would not affect the content of the news conference.
The two people sitting in the row in front of Pei Qian should be from the same technology media company. One of them was slightly older and had been guiding the younger man in filming. It should be the more common 'old people guiding the new', bringing the company's newcomers to the news conference to take a look and practice.
The press conference hadn't officially started yet. The two of them adjusted the equipment and casually took pictures of the scene. Since they had nothing to do, they began to chat.
"I wonder what kind of performance Boss Chang will bring to everyone today? I'm really looking forward to it. "
"Indeed, the speed recital at last year's news conference really amazed me. It's the first time I've seen a cell phone news conference like that. Needless to say, the effect was outstanding."
"It's just that the timing is a little awkward. Other companies are holding news conferences on holidays and at night. Why did Otto Technologies do it at 5 PM on a working day? It won't delay dinner, right?"
"No, Boss Chang is very agile in holding news conferences. The last time, he only spoke for an hour. What's more, most of the time, he was talking about the shortcomings of the cell phone. It's probably about the same this time. It'll definitely be extremely condensed. It'll definitely be done before 7 PM. It might even be around 6 PM."
"Wait, I suddenly thought of a problem. I saw news previously that Boss Chang doesn't seem to be in charge of Otto Technologies' cell phone business. Could it be that … there's a change of person at this news conference? "
"That can't be, right? Boss Chang is indispensable for this news conference! If it were someone else, it wouldn't be that interesting! "
"That's right, Boss Chang's news conference every year is my source of joy. Please don't change him!"
Pei Qian could not help but laugh to himself as he listened to the discussion between the two people in front of him.
Are you still thinking about Boss Chang?
Your Boss Chang is gone!
Pei Qian could not help but feel proud of his wise decision. It was a good thing that he had arranged for Chang You through the first place elimination system. Otherwise, wouldn't there be a huge problem if Chang You attracted all the attention at the news conference of a new cell phone before he could even speak?
Obviously, the timing of this news conference was so awkward and the attention was so high because of Chang You.
Many people did not come for the products at this news conference, but to listen to Chang You's jokes.
Most people should have the same thoughts as these two brothers. They might have heard the news that Chang You was no longer in charge of the cell phone department, but they were still looking forward to Chang You holding this news conference.
They felt that since Chang You was still in Otto Technologies, he had most likely been promoted. He was originally only in charge of the cell phone business, but now he had handed the cell phone business to his subordinates and was in charge of a higher level of work.
Since that was the case, Chang You should attend such an important news conference personally, right?
After all, many people had already linked Otto Technologies to Chang You. Without Chang You, the effect of this news conference would definitely be greatly reduced.
One could imagine that the audience would definitely be disappointed when Jiang Yuan went on stage today. They would shout that they had been deceived. The news conference would be stable.
Soon, it was time.
This time, there was no warm-up video. However, the female voice that had been educating everyone about the precautions had become AEEIS's voice. She reminded everyone that the news conference would only last for an hour. Please mute your cell phones, try not to leave the venue, and collect your small gifts after the news conference ended.
At the same time, it was also introduced that this news conference would be live-streamed on many live-stream platforms. There was also a special live-stream on Bunny Tail Live-Stream.
The warm-up video might be gone but AEEIS's voice was a small surprise.
Once it was five o 'clock and the lights were turned off, the entire venue immediately erupted in warm applause and cheers.
"Boss Chang! Boss Chang! Boss Chang! "
"Eh …"
Many people were already jeering. The atmosphere did not look like a news conference, but more like a crosstalk theater.
Obviously, most of the audience had already decided that the protagonist of Otto Technologies' news conference was Chang You.
However, when the main speaker really went on stage, the audience was dumbfounded.
"Huh? Who is this? "
"Where's Boss Chang?"
"Don't tell me they've really changed? We want Boss Chang!"
The audience present were all well-mannered people. They would not directly shout "RNM refund", but it was obvious from everyone's expressions and demeanor that they were quite disappointed.
It was not to the extent of being deceived. After all, the publicity for the news conference had never said that the main speaker was Chang You. This was everyone's wishful thinking.
However, what was there to see at the news conference if Boss Chang was not here?
They could not hear the crosstalk anymore. The excitement of the news conference was going to be reduced to the end!
Jiang Yuan was also a little embarrassed, but he had already expected this situation in advance, so he still finished his opening remarks according to the script in an orderly manner.
"I'm sorry to disappoint everyone. It's not Boss Chang today."
"Hello, everyone. I'm the new person-in-charge of Otto Technologies, Jiang Yuan."
"First of all, I would like to thank everyone for taking the time out of your busy schedules to come to this' Embrace the Future 'exchange and sharing conference of Otto Technologies. On behalf of Boss Pei, Boss Chang, and all my colleagues in Otto Technologies, I would like to extend a warm welcome to everyone. At the same time, it has been a full year since Otto Technologies was established. On behalf of Boss Pei, Boss Chang, and all my colleagues in Otto Technologies, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to all the fans who support and love Otto Technologies!"
The crowd burst into thunderous applause again.
After all, most of the people who came this time were loyal fans of Otto Technologies. The new person-in-charge expressed his gratitude to the fans on stage. Everyone had to support him and respond.
However, the discussion between the two brothers in front of Pei Qian exposed the true thoughts of many audience members.
"It looks like this new person-in-charge is not bad, but he doesn't have the same vibe as Boss Chang!"
"Indeed, his speech seems a little conservative. He feels a little introverted and genteel. He can't really stir up the atmosphere."
"His eloquence is indeed a little lacking compared to Boss Chang."
"Let's wait and see. I guess we can forget about the jokes. I hope the content of the news conference will be interesting."
Even though the opening remarks were stable and there was nothing wrong with them, the audience immediately heard the difference in eloquence between him and Chang You the moment Jiang Yuan opened his mouth.
Chang You might be a serious technical background, but he was very down-to-earth. When he stood on stage, he gave off the feeling that a crosstalk actor gave off. He had everything under control on and off stage, and the atmosphere of the scene was natural.
What's more, his sense of humor was innate and very infectious.
However, Jiang Yuan did not have such a temperament at all. It even made people feel that he was a little timid. His words made people feel that he was not very confident. It was a little difficult to even mobilize the atmosphere of the scene normally, much less perform.
Those who were looking forward to Boss Chang's performance were naturally disappointed.
However, as the saying went, since they were already here, the main speaker was not good enough. They could only hope that the content of this news conference would be more interesting.
