Chapter 57: The New Era Arrives (Ch 826345060)

In the science and technology park of Xingcheng, Hubei Province, Huateng Microelectronics and Huateng Semiconductor are like two shining twin stars, complementing each other.
With sufficient talent reserves and strong financial support, the two companies have officially entered the fast lane of rapid development and demonstrated remarkable potential.
Huateng Microelectronics is making all-out efforts to develop Lv6 level OLED screen panel technology.
Once this technological breakthrough is achieved, the company will become one of the world’s top companies in the display field.
At present, Huateng Microelectronics’ R&D team has overcome a number of key technical challenges, including high-resolution display, low-power design and flexible screen technology.
At the same time, Huateng Semiconductor is also actively striving for Lv5 level integrated semiconductor circuit design technology.
The improvement of this technology will make it more competitive in the field of chip design.
It is expected that by next year, Huateng Microelectronics and Huateng Semiconductor will truly have the technological capabilities to compete with the world’s top companies.
At the end of May, Chen Tong once again received an invitation to the rice company’s new product launch conference.
Compared with a few years ago, Huateng Microelectronics’ position in the industry has undergone tremendous changes.
Two years ago, the newly established Huateng Microelectronics was a screen panel manufacturer that no one was interested in, and even the screens it produced were rejected by customers.
However, just one year later, Chen Tong, chairman of Huateng Microelectronics, was invited to attend the new product launch conference of Dami Company.
What is even more striking is that his seat was moved from the edge of the first row last time to the middle right of the first row.
This change in detail is undoubtedly the best proof of the improved status of Huateng Microelectronics.
“At any time, strength is the basis for speaking.” Chen Tong sighed in his heart.
Only when you truly possess strength can you win the respect of others.
The protagonist of this conference is none other than the well-known “nail house god phone” in the future mobile phone circle – Xiaomi Mi 6.
This machine has become a classic in the hearts of countless consumers with its excellent performance and durability.
“Buy new, not old, unless it’s rice 6!”
“One machine can be passed down through three generations, even if the person is gone, the machine still exists!”
“Humanity has developed less than 1% of the Mi 6!”
A series of popular online memes have made the Xiaomi Mi 6 one of the mobile phones with the highest value retention rate.
Even when other models have seen their prices drop over time, the second-hand price of Mi 6 remains strong, and can even be sold for the price of Mi 8 or 9.
As a little butterfly that can flap its wings and change the world, Chen Tong’s existence has already had a subtle impact on history.
Since Huateng Microelectronics proposed the full-screen concept in advance and made innovations in components, the appearance of the Xiaomi Mi 6 is very different from what Chen Tong remembers.
Although the design of the back cover of the phone is still classic, the front has been replaced with a sliding full screen.
This change made Chen Tong smile: “The Mi 6 with a sliding full screen? Why not just call it the Mi MIX 3 Youth Edition!”
He remembered that the only sliding screen mobile phone produced by Xiaomi was the MIX3 released in the second half of 2018.
Now, this design has been applied to the Mi 6 in advance, becoming a highlight of this amazing phone.
Although the appearance has changed, the core configuration of Xiaomi Mi 6 still continues the classic – equipped with the first-generation powerful U Fire Dragon 835.
However, when Lei Jun introduced the processor on the stage, Chen Tong made a new discovery.
[This is a Lv6 level mobile processor chip! ]
Chen Tong was shocked.
Two years ago, the Fire Dragon 820 he saw was only at Lv5, but after the iteration of Fire Dragon 821, Fire Dragon 835 has been upgraded to Lv6.
This change made him sigh: “The world’s top technology companies are really not vegetarians! If you are not careful, the technology level will rise to a new level.”
This also made him realize that Huateng Microelectronics and Huateng Semiconductor must continue to increase their investment in technology research and development and innovation in order to maintain their competitiveness.
“The sliding full screen adopted by our company this time comes from Huateng Microelectronics, and we also specially equipped it with a brand new display chip H1!”
During his presentation, Lei Jun specifically mentioned Huateng Microelectronics and focused on the display chip H1.
This is the first time that the display chip designed by Huateng has been shown to the public.
Under Lei Jun’s introduction, the advantages of the display chip H1 were displayed one by one on the big screen:
More extreme color display management
More precise brightness adjustment
Under current regulation, screen brightness power consumption is reduced by 10%
What is even more impressive is that Lei Jun also used his specialty – Lei Jun’s comparison method.
Through a series of comparisons, he came to a conclusion: Huateng screen is slightly behind Pusha screen, but Huateng screen plus display chip H1 is slightly stronger than Pusha screen.
Looking at the cheering Mi fans in the audience, Chen Tong was completely dumbfounded: “No, this is also possible? How come I didn’t know that Huateng’s screen and chip are so powerful!”
He couldn’t help but sigh that publicity could be played this way. But after thinking about it carefully, he felt relieved.
After all, some things are subjective and some things are objective, and the quality of objective things often varies from person to person.
When two things are very similar, the so-called comparison becomes somewhat subjective.
“Since the effect of the Huateng screen plus the display chip is similar to that of the Pusha screen, this comparison is an objective concept.” Chen Tong thought to himself.
At this press conference, what excited Chen Tong the most was not the launch of Xiaomi Mi 6, but the completion of full-screen software adaptation.
This breakthrough means that full-screen technology has finally moved from the hardware level to full support of the software ecosystem, marking that the smartphone industry is about to usher in a new era.
At the end of the press conference, Lei Jun announced a piece of news that excited all technology enthusiasts: Google will officially release the latest Android 8.0 version after the press conference.
This version not only supports changing the phone display ratio from 16:9 to 18:9 in the underlying architecture, but also successfully writes full-screen gesture interaction into the system.
“The era of full-screen is coming! You are all witnesses of the new era! We will release a development version based on Android 8.0 in June…” As soon as Lei Jun finished speaking, the whole audience boiled over.
The full-screen adaptation at the bottom layer of Android indicates that full-screen technology will become the mainstream trend of future smartphones.
This news not only excited the technology enthusiasts at the scene, but also sparked heated discussions on the Internet.
“I didn’t expect that Google would support full screen in the new version of Android. It looks like full screen will soon become mainstream!”
“Apple used to lead the industry in innovation, but I didn’t expect Android to be in the lead this time. Times have really changed!”
“My Lord, times have changed!”
Netizens are full of expectations for the popularization of full-screen phones.
After all, full-screen mobile phones are far superior to traditional screens in terms of visual perception and operating experience.
In this discussion about full-screen displays, the name of Huateng Microelectronics has been mentioned frequently.
As a pioneer in promoting the development and popularization of full-screen displays at the hardware and conceptual levels, Huateng Microelectronics has become an indispensable presence in this technological wave.
“If we talk about the emergence and development of full-screen displays in the future, Huateng Microelectronics will definitely be an issue that cannot be ignored,” a technology blogger wrote on social media.
Chen Tong looked at the praises for Huateng Microelectronics on the Internet and felt proud, but also realized that the responsibility on his shoulders was heavier.
He knows that the arrival of the full-screen era is just the beginning and competition will be even more intense in the future.
