Chapter 1393 Remote Livestream Launch Event

Wednesday, January 9th, afternoon.

Oto Technologies New Product Launch.

The location was the same as always: the banquet hall of the Oasis Seasons Hotel.

Many tech media reporters and Tenda fans had already arrived, filling every seat. Some without tickets even stood by the entrance to watch.

The launch hadn't officially started yet, so the audience inside were all buzzing with anticipation, full of expectations for the new product Oto Technologies was about to release.

"Ah, it's time for the semi-annual special of President Chang's one-man show again. I wonder what kind of surprise President Chang will give us this time?"

"I gave the last smart fitness drying rack a score of 99 out of 100. I deducted one point to prevent President Chang from becoming arrogant!"

"Indeed, I feel that the level of absurdity of the smart fitness drying rack should already be at its peak. It will be difficult to have such an epoch-making product again. It's enough if this time we don't regress."

"Speaking of the last smart fitness drying rack, I watched the entire launch event and thought it was all a joke, but I didn't expect it to actually sell like crazy and even be out of stock for a while. It's outrageous!"

"I hope the thing released this time takes up less space. I'm really envious of that smart fitness drying rack, but there's really no space to put it at home."

"Well... I think your expectations are likely to be disappointed. From my observation, Oto Technologies' new products are always unexpected. If you already have the expectation of 'hoping this thing is smaller,' then in the end, it will definitely be contrary to your wishes."

"It's also possible that you expect Oto Technologies to make a joke, but President Chang just doesn't do it this time, right?"

Those viewers who weren't chatting were a little bored because the content on the big screen was the same as before, still "Oto Technologies Smart New Product" and keywords such as "Smart Life," "Healthy Life," "Convenient Life," and "Efficient Life."

It didn't reveal any information about the new product at all.

But this also made the entire launch event seem more mysterious and more anticipated.

"Please take your seats as soon as possible and keep quiet. The launch will begin shortly. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation."

Aeeis' electronic voice came from the speakers, the lights in the venue gradually dimmed, and the audience in the venue all quieted down.

"Hello everyone, I am Chang You."

"Welcome everyone to the launch of Oto Technologies' smart new product in your busy schedules. On behalf of all my colleagues at Oto Technologies, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks for your arrival!"

Hearing Chang You's familiar voice, the audience immediately burst into warm applause and cheers.

"President Chang! I've missed you so much since we last met half a year ago!"

"President Chang, what kind of surprise are you going to give us today? Bring it on, I can handle it!"

"Quickly announce the price, and I'll place an order after you announce it!"

"Huh, where's President Chang?"

After the applause and cheers, the audience in the venue realized that something was wrong.

Why could they only hear his voice but not see him?

Chang You did greet the audience, but the stage was empty, and his figure wasn't seen anywhere in the audience.

Most of the audience fell silent, and only a few people thought of something and smiled dumbfounded.

Then, a scene appeared on the big screen. On a deserted island, the sea breeze was blowing, there were a few coconut trees nearby, and you could also see the beach and the occasionally rising and falling tides.

Against this background, Chang You, wearing clothes for hardship travel training, was facing the camera to greet everyone.

Compared to last time, Chang You's spirit was much better, but he was obviously darker and thinner.

The audience hesitated for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha, what the hell! Where are you, President Chang?"

"I knew it! I watched Teacher Qiao's livestream before, and President Chang was in it!"

"This is just switching from the indoor training ground to the outdoor training ground. It's a deserted island."

"Good guy, President Chang has to work overtime to tell us jokes while suffering. It's too difficult! I strongly suggest giving President Chang an extra month of paid vacation to play on the island for another month!"

"It's okay to hold an online launch event directly at the launch venue. This time, you started playing tricks before you even announced the product?"

"It can't be said to be playing tricks. I believe President Chang wants to be there in person more than any of us."

"Is that wanting to be there in person? As long as he can stop suffering on this island, President Chang would be willing to go anywhere!"

"President Chang is too hardworking. If you're suffering, just suffer properly. It doesn't matter if Jiang Yuan hosts the launch event once in a while."

"That won't work. We listen to President Chang's one-man show. A launch event without President Chang is incomplete!"

"Jiang Yuan? Do you think Jiang Yuan isn't on that island too?"

"Hahaha, that's right, they went together!"

Seeing Chang You's condition, the audience couldn't hold back and felt a strong atmosphere of joy.

If other companies encountered this situation, they would either replace the person at the launch event or arrange for Chang You to fly back early.

But Tenda wasn't like that. They directly did it as a connected video, transported the livestream equipment to the island, and then let Chang You remotely host the launch event.

Anyway, this project had been developed to a considerable extent before Chang You went to suffer, and Chang You knew the project very well. Moreover, the content of the PPT for this launch event had already been prepared, and Chang You only needed to prepare to speak, and he could justifiably escape suffering for an afternoon. There was no reason to refuse at all.

Chang You said helplessly: "To be honest, I didn't expect to meet you all in this situation. This matter has to start with the hardship trip..."

After briefly telling his experience on the hardship trip, laughter and applause erupted again in the venue.

But Chang You didn't say too much, after all, the entire launch event was limited to one hour, and he had to control the time and race against the clock.

Soon, Chang You's video was cut into a small window and placed in the corner of the big screen, and the main part of the big screen showed the relevant content of the launch event.

"Okay, let's directly enter the price part of the new product launch!"

"Entry package 5800, advanced package 6800, deluxe package 9999!"

As Chang You explained, the prices of three different packages appeared on the screen.

Seeing this familiar "missing two hours" segment, the audience laughed again. (referring to the fact that the price is revealed first, before the features)

"That's right, that's right, we should directly announce the price. After this segment, we can watch the jokes without any burdens!"

"This time the price is more expensive. The last smart fitness drying rack only sold for 4999, and this time the price has increased again? The entry-level version costs 5800? The deluxe version directly costs ten thousand!"

"So what kind of new product will this be this time?"

"I really want to skip the formalities and directly say 'never mind,' but let's guess what it is first! If it's something like an 85-inch or larger high-end TV that sells for this price, then it's still acceptable."

Chang You didn't stay in this segment for too long and continued to enter the "guess the object from the picture" section.

The specific dimensions of the product appeared on the big screen: 130cm * 130cm * 115cm, covering an area of 1.69 square meters.

There was also an explanation in parentheses: The dimensions of different packages vary.

The width of 130cm is mainly considering the width of the ultrawide monitor or three-screen display in the whole set of equipment. If different solutions are adopted, there will be differences, which may be longer or shorter.

Seeing this size, everyone was even more confused.

"It's much smaller than the smart fitness drying rack, but this size still doesn't look like a serious product."

"Why do the dimensions of different packages fluctuate?"

"It seems that this package is pieced together from many products. Depending on the size of different products, the size of the package will also change..."

Then, the small window where Chang You was located disappeared, and a video began to play on the screen.

But what was puzzling was that this video didn't look like a promotional video.

Because promotional videos must have particularly detailed pictures and very good scenery, and they are all full of handsome men and beautiful women.

But the clarity of this video was very poor. It seemed to be a scene inside a car, and the person who entered the picture was also an ordinary person who was not very good-looking. It looked like a rough picture taken by a car camera.

An electronic voice sounded: "Identity verification successful, please start, and complete the exam according to the voice prompts."

"Seat belt not fastened, exam over, score failed."

The big brother in the video looked left and right, his face full of confusion.

He also specifically checked the seat belt next to him. No problem, wasn't it fastened?

So he turned his head to the right and stretched out the window, seemingly wanting to seek help from the exam staff.

At this moment, the voice of the exam staff came from outside the car: "Examinee No. 54, what are you doing sitting in the passenger seat?"

Seeing this scene, laughter immediately erupted in the venue.

"Hahahahaha!"

"Laughing to death, the fastest way to fail the exam!"

"I felt something was wrong. At first, I thought it was a mirror image, but he was actually sitting in the passenger seat! The seat belt was indeed fastened, but there was no one in the driver's seat!"

"Hahaha, still asking what he's doing sitting in the passenger seat? Of course he's sitting in the passenger seat if he doesn't have a driver's license yet!"

"Don't be silly, this must be a new exam item, examining the passenger seat license!"

Then, more driving test confusing behavior awards began to appear in the video.

For example, when reversing into the parking space, it was off by a hundred and eight thousand miles, and the coach stood outside looking as if he had no love in his life;

When reversing into the parking space, the edge of the space was filled with mobile phones. As a result, when a coach car reversed into the space, it directly crushed them. The other students hurried over to rescue the mobile phones from under the wheels, but they failed;

Someone in the waiting hall closed his eyes, holding a stainless steel basin as a steering wheel with both hands, and alternately stepped on the pedals with his left and right feet, seemingly recalling his driving skills out of thin air;

In addition, there were also people who crashed the outer wall of the driving school, drove the car into the ditch, and chased the driving school coach up a tree while reversing into the parking space. The driving school coach had a look of despair on his face as eight out of ten students failed...

In short, all kinds of bizarre recordings of learning to drive and taking driving tests were available.

And this wasn't a specially filmed promotional video, it was all real recordings found online!
