Chapter 61 Global Premiere of Fruit Ninja
"But that's not all." Adebayor switched the PowerPoint presentation on the big screen again.
"The S1 runs on Transsion's self-developed Taishan OS system."
Regarding the system, Adebayo was eager to introduce Transsion's innovative spirit, but these people probably didn't even know what a system was.
Therefore, he could only gloss over it and simply announce the existence of Taishan OS to the world.
"A unique feature of this system is that it has a built-in offline map, so you can find your location even without a network connection."
Most importantly, it supports multilingual translation, currently including twelve African languages, so people no longer need to worry about language barriers when traveling...
When all these features were enabled, the African audience members couldn't sit still any longer. Many stood up, holding up their wallets and shouting, "How much! Tell me how much!"
This kind of excited atmosphere is exactly what mobile phone manufacturers want to see. Adebayo smiled and walked to the edge of the stage, looking at the countless expectant eyes below, he slowly said:
Before we officially introduce the price, let's take a look at how much our competitors' products sell for.
For example, a Samsung smartphone sells for $499, and an Apple smartphone sells for the same price, but that's just their retail price. When it gets here, the price increases to $699 or $799, or even more.
Upon seeing the figures in the PowerPoint presentation, many people's initial excitement and cheers immediately subsided; the price was too high. Disappointment appeared on many faces.
But some people nodded silently; they bought the more expensive ones…
"But today, Transsion has chosen to go all the way," Adebayo shouted from the stage. "Because Transsion will never forget who helped us through our most critical moment, and who we were born for!"
Golden numbers immediately appeared on the big screen, and the price, which was originally $799, instantly dropped to $399.
Quiet!
A deathly silence followed, then the audience's emotions erupted completely.
"399, my God!"
"Wow, that's so expensive..."
"Although it's not exactly cheap, it's a smartphone, so it's worth the price."
"I want to buy it; it's cheaper than I expected."
But at that moment, Adebayor waved his hand again: "This price is much lower than that of international counterparts, a full $100, but it's still a bit expensive."
So after repeated discussions by the board of directors, we finally allocated $10 billion to subsidize the first batch of Transsion smartphone users worldwide, with each person receiving 50 yuan.
So the final price is…
The number 399 on the big screen was instantly slashed, dropping to 349.
The cheers at the scene were completely unstoppable, with many people waving their arms wildly and some even throwing their hats into the air.
Of course, some people excitedly hugged the people around them.
In addition, everyone was wearing orange communication suits, so the entire stadium turned into...
The photographer also captured this important moment with the entire camera.
After the excited chatter subsided, Adebayo continued, "The first 1 buyers will receive an original protective case and official wired headphones for better sound quality, as well as a year of free testing service."
The large screen also displayed the testing services, including but not limited to dust removal, phone cleaning, battery charging, and a range of other services.
"In addition, every audience member who attends today will receive an additional $10 discount, bringing the final price to $339."
On the other side, in Guangzhou, China.
Shen Fei and Zhang Mingzhu also watched the broadcast of the press conference at home.
"This price... is only a little over 2000, right? Selling a smartphone so cheaply, they won't lose money, will they?" Zhang Mingzhu said, then revealed a curious expression.
"You won't lose money, you might even make a lot. These phones can't compare to the one you have." After saying that, Shen Fei gently tidied Zhang Mingzhu's hair...
Meanwhile, at the Lax National Stadium, the revelry was still going strong.
The announcement of this discounted price sparked a continuous frenzy at the event.
But Adebayo also knew that price was just a starting point; what truly retained users was the experience. So after discussing the price, he pulled out another Transsion S1.
"Everyone!" he shouted again, his voice drowning out the revelry through the venue's sound system.
"I know what you're thinking. Buying a smartphone for 349 is definitely a good deal."
But is it worth it? Besides making phone calls, taking better photos, and accessing the internet, what else can it do?
The audience gradually quieted down, and many people turned their attention to him.
What else can it do besides these functions? After all, Transsion is a very respectful mobile phone manufacturer, so perhaps there will be new surprises.
"Today, I want to show you what makes the S1 truly unique."
Adebayo turned on the screen again, revealing a brand new app: [Fruit Ninja].
The PPT slides behind them had also been changed to display the two large characters for "game".
The Africans in the audience were no strangers to games, after all, Transsion Power Max, T1, and even the cheapest T80 all had several games available.
But those were just simple button games; they were still very curious about this brand new game.
At the same time, the game screen on the mobile phone was also projected onto the large screen.
A clean interface appeared on the large screen with a blue sky and white clouds as the background. Various fruits rose from the bottom of the screen: watermelons, bananas, strawberries, oranges... and bombs.
"This game is called 'Fruit Ninja,' a global first release, currently exclusive to Transsion users," Adebayo introduced, his finger rapidly swiping across the screen.
"Swish! Swish! Swish!"
As his finger traced the path, the fruit cracked open, and thanks to the excellent skills of PopCap's programmers, the entire interface had stunning effects, with even the fruit's juice splattering out.
After successfully slicing multiple fruits, the word "COMBO" appeared on the screen, and the score skyrocketed.
A gasp of surprise rose from the audience.
Adebayo initially thought there was nothing fun about this kind of game, but as the game gradually improved, and after playing it himself, he suddenly felt...
In addition, the fruit-cutting game was developed by Shenfei, combining features of later games to create Fruit Cutting Pro Max.
In addition to the original game functions, it has added leaderboards, two-player racing, and most importantly, the function of playing with friends. Of course, it will not forget some small in-game purchase items.
"This game is specifically optimized for S1," Adebayo explained while operating the game, shifting his gaze from the big screen and stage to the phone screen, afraid of accidentally switching to the tiny bomb.
