Chapter 514 The iPhone is coming

"Just now, Apple released their mobile phone IPhone, which is very similar to our mobile phone..."

A few days earlier than Barron's previous life, on January 5, Apple CEO Steve Jobs released their latest mobile phone product, the IPhone, at the Macworld conference held at the Mascony Convention Center in San Francisco, USA.

Ivanta, who has been paying attention to Apple's trends, informed Barron of the news immediately.

According to her description of the scene, Jobs personally unlocked the lock screen of the IPhone with his fingers during the press conference and showed everyone the operation of the touch-screen smartphone and the built-in iOS system.

At the same time, the configuration and parameters of this phone were also announced. Apple's first iPhone has a 3.5-inch LCD screen on the front. It will be equipped with Samsung S5L8900 chip and iOS operating system, and will be equipped with a 200 Megapixel rear camera with built-in 1030mAh non-removable battery.

This mobile phone will be officially launched at the end of June this year. The first IPhone mobile phone has only one color. The upper part of its back is silver gray and made of aluminum alloy, and the lower part is black and made of plastic...

It can be said that the release of the IPhone immediately shocked the industry with its simple design, revolutionary interface and multi-touch operation.

But at this time, mobile phones are still dominated by feature phones. Although some mobile phones equipped with "smart operating systems" have also been launched, brands such as Nokia and Motorola have their own mobile phone models with smart operating systems, and The control of the touch screen is not too sensitive so far. Even the iPhone 1 faces this situation. For many people who are accustomed to using physical keyboards to send text messages and emails, it will take time to accept this new product.

And before that, the impression of Apple in most people's minds was that "it's a company that makes MP3 players."

When they entered the mobile phone industry, they were not favored by many people.

“Using the virtual keyboard to send text messages and write emails is like using a dial phone. Don’t be too surprised if someone regrets choosing an iPhone over a BlackBerry because they spend an extra hour on the road every day. type."

This was the comment reported by a well-known American technology media after Apple released the iPhone.

"Are we ready?"

"Yes, our Android system and Honor Mate 1 mobile phone are ready. After countless tests and optimizations, we need to continue to improve through user use."

After hearing Ivanta's words on the phone, Barron nodded and said:

"Then we will hold a press conference in a week."

In fact, even though he had already experienced it once in his previous life, Barron was still a little excited when he experienced this slightly different era again and knew that an epoch-making new product was about to be released.

After the two-day trip to China, Bonnie and the Earl and Countess Bute took a flight back to London.

Barron, on the other hand, went directly to Los Angeles.

On January 10, the Warriors announced the completion of the transaction. Pioneer Sports Group purchased the NBA team located in Oakland, California from the original owner Chris Cohan for US$350 million.

As we all know, Pioneer Sports Group owns the Premier League's Manchester United club and the F1 Group. Now, this sports company will add an NBA team.

DS Holdings (Cavendish Trust Fund) owns 60% of the shares of Pioneer Sports Group, so Barron, the British Duke, is the owner of Pioneer Sports Group, which means that he will become the first foreign team owner in the NBA. .

Although Barron did not attend the press conference to acquire the Warriors - it was Kebi Haber, CEO of Pioneer Sports Group, who came forward.

But after that, Barron went to the team, met with the team's coaches and players, and gave them gifts-each of them the latest Range Rover!

This generous move made it into the news reports the next day... which can be regarded as a wave of advertising for Land Rover.

Barron said that after acquiring the Warriors, no changes will be made for the time being - I'm afraid the only thing that will change is that if they win, there will be more bonuses.

This also reassured Warriors coaches and players.

And Barron also watched the game between the Warriors and the Magic. Although the Warriors lost the game with a score of 76-91, Barron still smiled throughout and encouraged the players after the game.

It can be said that this game is not just between games. Even during the game, many shots are focused on the young British Duke in the audience. His handsome, elegant and personable behavior appears on the field. When it is shown on the big screen, you will get bursts of screams.

Originally, Barron was not planning to appear here in such a high-profile manner, but what he is doing now is actually to gain a certain amount of attention for the upcoming Android operating system and Honor mobile phones.

Just like when he appeared, reporters' cameras captured Barron operating a mobile phone several times. Under careful observation, it was discovered that it was a model different from all mobile phones on the market today - the most important thing What's interesting is that the process of Barron controlling the phone is obviously achieved by touching the screen, which reminds people of Apple's new mobile phone IPhone, which was released just a week ago and attracted many people's attention.

However, after enlarging the photo, it is obvious that the phone in his hand is different from the IPhone at Apple's press conference.

This question was quickly answered.

On January 12, Android Company, owned by IC Capital, held a press conference in Los Angeles.

There were many reporters present at this press conference—not entirely because of invitations from IC Capital and Android. In fact, most of these reporters came for Barron.

It can be said that the initial reason why they came to this press conference was more of a "gossip" mentality.

Because this is a press conference that IC Capital attaches great importance to, Ivanta also sat in the audience of the press conference. Initially, Ivanta was known as being born in the TP family and having a father who is very good at hype. of.

But now, because of the impressive achievements of IC Capital managed by Ivanta, this girl with beautiful appearance and extraordinary business talent has been considered one of the most outstanding representatives of the "rich second generation" in the United States. This topical beauty also attracts special attention.

What excited the reporters was that sitting next to Ivanta was Duke Devon Hill, who had just appeared in reports frequently because of his acquisition of the NBA team Warriors. Before the press conference started, the two of them were handsome. The pretty girls would chat in low voices from time to time, and they seemed to be a perfect match.

Even though they knew that the young Duke was married and had children, there were still many reporters facing this situation, and it was inevitable that they would burst into laughter on the spot.

Of course, those shots aimed at the two of them were also consuming film.

Time passed like this, and soon, the lights in the venue dimmed. Everyone understood that this meant that the press conference was about to begin...
