Chapter 83: No Force
Looking at the contrast in the video with the beauty filter turned off, although these models had good skin and looked great with microblading and makeup, it still caused exclamations from netizens.
The barrage of comments filled the screen.
At the same time, many people also reported this.
I knew it, how could there be such a beautiful person yet remain unknown? Turns out it’s because of the beauty filter!
Now there are refined PS pictures, and there have also been spoof comparison pictures, so they know how powerful .
I just didn't expect that it could be synced to the video and there wouldn't be any flaws.
Models have to make a living too, and they know that making this choice may lead to the ruin of their idol, but it is difficult to hide their true appearance forever. Once Hanwei and Xiaomai’s cell phones come out, people know the reason!
In this case, why not maximize the value?
Besides, their foundation is pretty good, so the collapse won't be too exaggerated.
Anyway, all future videos will still be beautified, so this time it’s purely for advertising.
"I now truly believe that Master Yi is a computer science major!"
"He really didn't lie..."
"Good man, are you so dirty? Give me back my goddess!"
"He gave you a bunch of goddesses. Didn't you see that Hanwei and Xiaomai's new phones will have this program installed. They will be everywhere in the future."
"Actually, it doesn't seem to make any difference to us. We usually just watch it online anyway, so who cares what the other person looks like..."
Compared to the comments of some players and ordinary netizens, the most sensational ones are still on Weibo and Donghu.
Because the proportion of women here is relatively higher.
Women of all classes who are willing to spend a lot of money on makeup are exploding.
The difference between before and after is so huge? And there is no trace of technology at all? What kind of magic is this!
Look at the details, even the faint traces of blood vessels on the face are still preserved. It really can't be more real. I didn't expect it at all!
I want this!
It has to be said that Hanwei and Xiaomai have thought a lot about maximizing profits. They are preparing to launch new models at hand. Almost no accessories have been replaced, and the production line has not changed. It just adds this small program to turn it into a + version.
In fact, it’s not that they don’t want to upgrade the system of the old version, but when Wang Yi signed the contract with them, he emphasized that the software is charged according to usage. If the old version of the mobile phone is upgraded, this fee will be required to be paid extra.
In this situation, after they discussed it and communicated with each other, they decided to save some costs first. Anyway, as long as Wang Yi always sticks to this contract model, other manufacturers will definitely take similar actions.
Because once you choose to upgrade the old system, all mobile phones will follow suit. This is just a waste of internal friction, and everyone actually has this tacit understanding.
Don’t be fooled by the fact that many competing companies are fighting each other to the point of bloodshed. However, when they want to raise prices uniformly, for example, they will collude with each other and communicate with each other.
When it comes to business, they only pursue profits.
Especially for those overseas competitors, with so many products distributed around the world, the losses from this upgrade will be huge!
Although it has not yet been officially put on sale, the sensation it caused has directly suppressed the related preheating of Wang Yi's "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds".
After all, one is just the gaming circle, and the other can be said to have blown up half the world.
Weibo and Donghu were completely shut down.
People are asking everywhere how to get these two new models first.
A large number of scalpers also heard the news and were ready to take action.
Such a huge impact naturally made other manufacturers sense the crisis.
A large number of orders that had already been placed were canceled, and the sudden impact made them feel a little flustered.
What?
Isn't that a post-production program? It's actually a beauty filter?
Are you kidding me? This is so unfair!
They all sell mobile phones, and they are already concerned about the camera pixels. Now there is this killer feature. Of course, they all know the impact.
must!
For a while, Wang Yi’s company’s hotline was almost blown up.
The atmosphere group members who had been idle for a long time now became temporary operators.
Anyway, the contract and price are fixed, there is nothing to discuss. They only need to relay the contents of the contract and complete some mechanical work.
With such a price, and for just a software, it naturally makes many companies feel like they are starting to see the same feeling.
However, looking at the returned orders and the popularity online, several domestic manufacturers discussed it and finally agreed.
At least if they admit it, they will just earn less. If they don’t admit it, they will have no way to survive!
But this is unacceptable to international giant brands such as Four Star and Fruit.
They were not willing to accept 0.1%, let alone Wang Yi directly offered 0.2%!
This is no longer a question of money; the key is that it is too insulting.
A world-class company like theirs can't afford to lose this person.
Today, domestic mobile phone brands are under great pressure to compete with four-star and fruit machines in terms of competitiveness. Although there are many flowers blooming, some are still overwhelmed.
Then, a voice gradually emerged on the Internet.
"It's just a piece of software. Isn't it too ugly to eat it? "
"That's right, we just need to open an APP, why do we need to buy new phones? Do you think money comes from the wind?"
"I learned about the price quote from an insider. It is said that the licensing fee is more than 100 million per year!"
"No way? A manufacturer? One hundred million a year?"
“No wonder Minecraft didn’t sell for $400 million.”
"Love is like cutting leeks on our bodies..."
These voices are all from the perspective of consumers, and there is naturally nothing wrong with them. However, under deliberate guidance and amplification, they are directed at the "World Culture Entertainment Games" company.
This company, which was founded only two months ago, has been making a lot of big moves. While it is making a lot of money from games, it is also making big cuts in software.
When making money and grabbing other people's territory, there will be conflicts when there are disputes over interests. This is inevitable.
Of course, Wang Yi now has a lot of fans, and many people will also defend him, so the debate has become even more heated.
Great mathematicians have come up with amazing programs, but they are numb to it.
"Minecraft" and the upcoming "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" are already quite awesome. Isn't it normal that a beauty app is now making waves in the mobile phone industry?
"Check if the tax has been paid?"
“You’ve made so much money, have you donated it to the children in the poor mountainous areas?”
"One hundred million per year for one factory is too much."
"I got the news, it seems to be 0.1% of sales."
"This is too expensive, why?"
"And after this thing comes out, it will definitely be filled with chaos and lose its authenticity!"
"Seeking truth on the Internet? Are you doing something wrong?"
“…”
Wang Yi could tell that this was probably done by the big foreign company that got a piece of the pie.
In fact, while these large foreign companies will pay attention to the domestic market, they can also exert pressure in the opposite direction.
Because many of them are already manufactured in China, this is a deep entanglement between the two parties.
Therefore, even when there were trade confrontations, there was no talk of attacking fruit companies or anything like that. This would hurt both sides and would cause other investors to have concerns, and this might even be the opponent was expecting!
Therefore, in some aspects, they can be more confident.
This time, they absolutely don't want to give in.
A major company in the world was taxed for a beauty software? This kind of embarrassing thing will be reflected in the stock market, and the loss will be more serious than the tax itself.
However, the voices on the Internet were forcibly suppressed by the latest update released by Wang Yi on Weibo.
"As far as I know, Qualcomm currently charges 4%-5% of the communication patent fee for all mobile phones. Why? Qualcomm can charge me but I can't? Of course, mobile phones must use Qualcomm's patents, so there is no way but to pay. And I didn't force you to use my software, so you can use it if you want, and don't get out of here!"
My goodness, as soon as such explosive and provocative words came out, the whole place went crazy.
It can be said that even business competitors rarely use such a fierce tone at will.
But after Master Yi posted, many people felt that it was natural. This guy is a great mathematician who would say on the Internet that he helps catch ghosts...
What Wang Yi said is also worth pondering.
Even if Qualcomm has no business relationship with other countries, it can still forcibly collect taxes by relying on the patents it developed during the 3G and 4G eras, and even fruits have to bow their heads.
Wang Yi has now made it clear that you can choose not to cooperate. After all, you can survive without beauty filters.
As soon as these words came out, the voices that said Wang Yi was black-hearted were speechless.
There is an even more ruthless one ahead. This is not a forced sale. It is a matter of mutual consent. What can you say?
Master Yi is right, you can choose not to cooperate, not to force...
