“Hello, everyone. I’m the person-in-charge of Otto Technologies, Jiang Yuan.”

“Thank you all for taking the time out of your busy schedules to come to Otto Technologies’ news conference for the new product. I warmly welcome everyone on behalf of Boss Pei, Vice-President Chang, and everyone in Otto Technologies!”

“It has been two years since Otto Technologies was established. I want to thank all the fans who support Otto Technologies on behalf of all the employees of Otto Technologies.”

Jiang Yuan introduced them steadily as usual.

His stage style was different from Chang You’s. Chang You had a performance effect the moment he went on stage. It always made people laugh, as if they were in a crosstalk show.

Many people expressed that they could not help but want to laugh when they saw Vice-President Chang’s face.

However, Jiang Yuan’s stage style looked very literary. He was a little like an introverted good student.

However, Jiang Yuan was the person-in-charge after all. He had held many news conferences. He was a familiar face to everyone. The audience knew that Vice-President Chang would definitely be the last to appear for the new product. Thus, they warmly supported Jiang Yuan.

Many people could not help but sigh. They did not expect Otto Technologies to be two weeks old.

Otto Technologies was considered a department that had been established relatively late in the entire Tengda Corporation. However, in just two short years, Otto Technologies had really slaughtered a path in the red sea market of cell phones. It had established its own brand and released a few explosive standalone products. Such an achievement was indeed worthy of being proud.

Jiang Yuan continued, “Before I announce the new cell phone product this time, I want to apologize to everyone.”

“First, the price of this new cell phone is very not beautiful. The price might be unacceptable to many fans seated here.”

“Second, this cell phone has not used any new technology from Otto Technologies in terms of hardware.”

The cell phone’s pricing appeared on the big screen as Jiang Yuan spoke.

The ordinary version 22,499 yuan, the high-end version 23,499 yuan!

Everyone was shocked.

It was too expensive!

One had to know that Shenhua Corporation had just finished their news conference last weekend. The ordinary foldable screen at the news conference was only priced at 17,999 yuan!

In the end, the price of Otto Technologies’ cell phone increased by 4,500 yuan. Was that alright?

The key was that Jiang Yuan also said that this cell phone did not use any new technology in hardware!

The price had increased so much without the new technology! Was this going to happen?

Many people were stunned. They did not know what Jiang Yuan was up to.

However, everyone knew very well that Jiang Yuan had always been a very honest person. He spoke straightforwardly and did not do those fancy things.

This meant that there must be a reason why the price was so high.

This was not the most expensive cell phone that had been sold so far. Some smaller brands had turned their cell phones into luxury cell phones and sold them at more expensive prices than this.

However, this should be the highest price in the mass-produced mainstream model. Even the top flagship model of POUIO cell phone was not sold at this price.

Jiang Yuan continued, “This is our Otto X1 cell phone. Many people might think that this photo looks familiar. That’s right. This is Shenhua Corporation’s latest foldable cell phone. These two cell phones are actually the same. They are completely the same.”

The photo of Otto X1’s cell phone appeared on the big screen. Everyone was shocked to find that that was true. The only difference was that the logo of Shenhua Corporation on the cell phone had been changed to the logo of Otto Technologies. Apart from that, it was exactly the same.

People immediately began discussing the game.

“Ah! It’s the same cell phone. Wouldn’t it be unnecessary for you to hold this news conference? Wouldn’t it be done if you held it together with Shenhua Corporation’s news conference?”

“That’s boring! In the past, cell phones were designed on their own. Why did they copy Shenhua Corporation’s design this time? They can’t be considered cell phone manufacturers in the future. They can only be considered a sales channel.”

“I think that this is quite good. On the contrary, I feel relieved. At Otto Technologies’ current level, it would definitely not be able to create a foldable cell phone that is so mature. If it is not done well, would there be a need to release a new model? I think it is responsible to customers to be able to obtain Shenhua Corporation’s authorization to use such a mature design plan.”

“Why is it so expensive if they are of the same model?”

“Perhaps he added Tengda Corporation’s benefits content? If he’s an old user of Otto Technologies, he should be able to save some money.”

“However, it’s still five hundred yuan more expensive after removing the four thousand yuan.”

Jiang Yuan told everyone frankly that this cell phone was Shenhua Corporation’s foldable screen. It was completely identical. Some people were very disappointed. After all, they had already understood the various parameters of this cell phone at Shenhua Corporation’s cell phone news conference last week. However, some people felt relieved. At the very least, Otto Technologies was using Shenhua Corporation’s mature design plan. They did not have to worry about releasing a half-finished product.

However, most people’s interest was greatly reduced. Since they knew that it was the same as Shenhua Corporation’s foldable screen, why not buy Shenhua Corporation’s cell phone?

At the moment, Shenhua Corporation’s foldable screen had been officially sold in the past two days, and Otto Technologies’ cell phone was probably from the same period. Since both cell phones were exactly the same, why didn’t everyone buy Shenhua Corporation’s cell phones? What unique competitiveness did Otto Technologies’ cell phone have?

Otto X1 would probably only become a special machine for Tengda’s fans. It would not be attractive to non-Tengda fans.

Jiang Yuan was not affected. The news conference continued.

“I won’t introduce the parameters of this cell phone. Those who want to understand more can watch Shenhua’s news conference again.”

“Next, I’ll introduce Otto Technologies’ modifications to this cell phone. They are the custom-made appearance and custom-made system themes.”

Everyone was disappointed.

To put it nicely, the custom-made appearance was nothing more than changing the skin. What’s more, from Jiang Yuan’s words, it seemed like the cell phone this time was not even customized. It was just a cell phone shell.

As for the custom-made system theme, it was even more ridiculous. It was just to change the UI.

Was this little change worth mentioning at a news conference?

Jiang Yuan continued to introduce the uniqueness of this cell phone shell. It was indeed distinct from the two cell phone shells that Shenhua Corporation had recommended.

Shenhua Corporation had mainly prepared an ordinary mobile phone shell for some high-end businessmen. It was a simple skin version. The mobile phone shell that they had bought with more money was a leather protection package.

On the other hand, Otto Technologies was a Cyberpunk-style cell phone shell. It was designed with a hollow design and had two rings. It was specially provided for mobile gamers.

In addition, the custom-made Cyberpunk system also carried AEEIS smart voice assistant, making the entire cell phone look high-tech both inside and outside.

The atmosphere finally recovered a little after hearing Jiang Yuan’s introduction.

Some viewers were indeed interested in this cell phone.

The main reason was that Shenhua Corporation’s cell phone was a little too commercial for some rich young people. It did not highlight the personalities of young people. The cell phone shell and system customized by Otto Technologies were very suitable for young people.

Even so, the atmosphere at the venue was not particularly enthusiastic. After all, it was just a cell phone shell and a custom-made theme. The attractiveness of everyone was far from enough.

The cell phone’s casing might be novel, but 500 yuan was too expensive! What’s more, everything on the PowerPoint had been beautified. How did the cell phone’s casing feel? Was it useful? He would only know if he touched the real thing.

Jiang Yuan introduced this new cell phone step by step and left the stage to let the news conference enter the next segment.

The audience had been in a depressing atmosphere. However, when they saw Chang You on stage, they immediately burst into warm applause and cheers.

“The protagonist is finally on stage. Boss Chang is here!”

“That’s awesome! Vice-President Chang, what kind of burden and surprise did you bring us this time?”

“Eh…”

Chang You introduced himself to everyone and chatted with the audience while feeling their enthusiasm.

Thinking back to the last news conference, he had held it during the Suffering Travels. At that time, he was on the deserted island and had no one to rely on. Only the audience in the live-stream gave him a hint of warmth.

Now, they were finally back on the familiar stage of the news conference. They felt very emotional and passionate. “First, let us watch the price of this new product.”

A few huge numbers appeared on the big screen just as Chang You finished speaking: 4,999 yuan.

Beside this price number was a rough black silhouette. One could vaguely see the octopus shape of the router.

Chang You explained, “Some ardent viewers should have been able to tell what the new product that we are going to release this time through this design. That’s right, he is the first special smart road machine that Tengda is going to release.”

There was a short silence. Many people looked confused.

A router?

It was just a router?

From the silhouette on the big screen, this was indeed a router. However, it seemed to be slightly bigger than other routers in terms of size.

Of course, the photo could not be done accurately because there was no specific size. Many people thought that it was just magnified.

The main reason was that the price of this router was a little ridiculous.

How could it reach 4,999 yuan?

At the moment, the more mainstream router in the market was basically under 500 yuan. A router that cost about 500 yuan was already a very good one.

On the other hand, some professional E-Sports routers could be sold for more than 1,000 yuan. However, these were all very different examples. What’s more, the market was very niche.

What kind of black technology did Tengda use to sell the router? It could actually sell for 4,999 yuan. If there really was such a black technology, the manufacturers of the other router should have followed it up a long time ago. How could they let Tengda release it?

As for the ‘game use only’ words that Chang You mentioned, many people felt that it was just a concept.

That was because other router manufacturers had also released some so-called game-specific router. However, they had only divided it into special frequencies for the game to use or installed some accelerator software inside. It was not fundamentally different from ordinary household routers.

If there really was a black technology that could greatly improve the game experience, the other veteran router manufacturers would definitely use it. It was impossible for Tengda’s first to release it.

Everyone looked confused. They were looking forward to how Chang You would introduce this product.

Chang You smiled. “First, let us watch a promotional video.”
