Rebuild 2005

Chapter 254 [252] The first generation of iPhone
"Of course I have considered it, but I probably won't go back in a short time. The salary here is higher."

Wang Qinggen has just become the company's chief engineer this year, and it can be said that he is proud of himself, so it is naturally impossible to consider returning to China now.

Wei Qingfan was not surprised by this, and said with a smile: "Indeed, the development of our country is still a little bit behind, and it is really not so easy to find jobs with an annual salary of more than one million. We have to wait for the large companies to get more."

Wang Qinggen glanced at him, fell silent for a while, then turned his head to look at Liu Zhiyuan, Shen Rong and others who were still discussing the impact of the subprime mortgage crisis, and said in a low voice: "The difference is too much."

"You can always catch up, just develop slowly."

Wei Qingfan said with a smile, "When the local Internet companies rise, there must be a few leading high-tech companies...they will all be there."

Wang Qinggen turned his head to look at him, but didn't speak.

Wei Qingfan didn't say anything else, seeing Li Miaoyu watching with sparkling eyes, not eating, he smiled and shook his hand in front of her.

Li Miaoyu rolled his eyes at him, saw that Wang Qinggen was drinking with Liu Zhiyuan and the others, moved to his side, and asked softly, "Why do you care about him so much?"

Wei Qingfan also lowered his voice, leaned into his ear and said, "I want him to work for me."

"Oh oh."

Li Miaoyu opened her eyes slightly, with a look of surprise and anticipation, and nodded slightly vigorously.

Li Shuqing just put down his wine glass, seeing the two people biting their ears, he felt a little uncomfortable, but he didn't say anything.

He is not blind either. After getting along these days, how can he not see what is going on?
It's just that if the daughter doesn't confess, he pretends not to know, so that the two of them can still be a little scrupulous, but if they tell, they may become more upright.

"Thoughts on PayPal?"

After the show ended, Liu Zhiyuan drove him back to the hotel, and while waiting for the elevator, Zhao Yaquan asked with a smile.

"No."

Wei Qingfan smiled and said, "I just think this Uncle Wang is very good...Auntie, Uncle, do you know many IT people here?"

Li Shuqing and Zhao Yaquan looked at each other and shook their heads. Li Shuqing said, "Big companies in the IT industry are basically located in Silicon Valley. Although most of them have branches here, most of them are financial companies."

Zhao Yaquan said again: "But they must know each other...why, do you want to recruit wise men?"

"No, I'll just ask."

Wei Qingfan smiled, "Let's understand first."

Zhao Yaquan said: "If there are people in this area, I will help you pay attention."

"Thank you, Auntie."

They played in New York for three days, and then set off to leave, just to play.

The itinerary was planned by Li Shuqing and Zhao Yaquan before they came here, mainly on the east coast.

Their next stop came to Washington. On the third day here, Wei Qingfan finally bought an iPhone through a friend of Wang Hai.

Li Shuqing and Zhao Yaquan were not interested, Li Miaoyu thought it was too ugly and didn't buy it, but he was still very interested in the various functions he mentioned, so after arriving at the place, he happily went back to the room with him and looked at the phone.

Wei Qingfan closed the door, Li Miaoyu had already put away the bag, took out the mobile phone box from the bag, and was about to unpack it.

Wei Qingfan couldn't care less about looking at his phone, so he threw his backpack on the bed, and wrapped her in his arms.

Li Miao said "Yeah" in a low voice, stretched out her hand and pushed him, but she didn't push him away, so she obediently let him hug her.

After getting along for days, Wei Qingfan couldn't be honest all the time, and he also sneaked into the room to steal fragrance, but he didn't dare to overdo it, and his father-in-law and mother-in-law were obviously on guard against him.

It was the same this time, he hugged her and kissed her twice, then let her go, and then looked at the phone together.

"Such a big one?"

Putting the mobile phone box on the table, Wei Qingfan couldn't help being amazed, the original iPhone box with only a 3.5-inch screen was actually bigger than the later 6.7-inch Pro Max box, can you believe it?

The front of the box is printed with an image of the front of the iPhone, which is very thick, but in an era when major manufacturers don’t care about mobile phone packaging, this box, which has formed an Apple-style simple packaging style, still gives people a unique sense of refinement.

It also adopts the Tiandi box imitated by all mobile phone manufacturers in the future, that is, the entire main box is wrapped with a cover. In the process of opening, it even has the unique damping feeling of the packaging of Apple products in later generations.
——Due to friction and internal low pressure, this kind of Tiandi box packaging will naturally form a damping feeling during the opening process. However, in terms of experience, Apple products are still unique.

It is rumored that Apple's standard for the damping of the packaging box is to slide down 1.5 centimeters per second to ensure a sense of ceremony similar to the opening of the curtain.

This is how the sense of high-end is piled up bit by bit with details.

But this is the first generation product after all, and the details in all aspects are far from as exquisite as those piled up with money in later generations, but it is enough in this era.

Opening the box, the first thing that catches the eye is the familiar iPhone-style front, a rectangular screen, a round button, a plastic backing board with a hole in the middle, and a manual cardboard below, and the bottom layer is placed Charger, data cable, earphones and charging base.

Three of these four items have disappeared from later iPhone boxes.

Wei Qingfan was looking at these trivial things, Li Miaoyu had already taken the phone over, looked it over and over, and muttered, "It doesn't seem so ugly..."

The front panel is black, the upper part of the metal material on the back is silver-gray, and the Apple logo is printed with a missing corner, and the lower part is made of black plastic material. It is indeed much rougher than the later iPhones, but it is not too rough. ugly.

After all, Li Miaoyu is used to the delicacy of high-end mobile phones, and the first-generation iPhone is obviously far from reaching the high-end texture of the later iPhones, so it is no wonder that they are disgusted.

"How do you open it?"

Li Miaoyu groped for a while, found the power button, pressed it to turn on the phone, and handed it to Wei Qingfan.

Now there is no need to be forced to log in to the Apple account, Wei Qingfan simply operated and successfully entered, Li Miaoyu immediately exclaimed: "Wow, it's so big?"

The 3.5-inch screen is undoubtedly a super-large screen at this time, and the visual experience brought by the large screen is undoubtedly crushing for the small screen. Li Miaoyu feels very novel.

"I'll show you another function."

Wei Qingfan started to tremble, picked up his phone and took a picture of her, and then showed her.

"It's nothing. It doesn't feel as good as taking pictures with the Nokia we both use now."

It can be said that Li Miaoyu knew him very well, and he could tell the length and depth at a glance. Seeing him like this, he knew that he wanted to show off, so it was even more strange that this photo was really not a good one.

Wei Qingfan smiled at her, then pinched the photo with two fingers to enlarge the photo.

"Wow!"

This routine operation in later generations still has a sense of novelty that is almost magical. Li Miaoyu finally exclaimed again, feeling a little excited.

----

"Would you like to go take a look?"

Back in time a little, next door, Li Shuqing couldn't help asking Zhao Yaquan.

The so-called men know men better. Seeing that his daughter was tricked into the room by Wei Qingfan's mobile phone, and she was also deceived by Wei Qingfan's own mobile phone, Li Shuqing pretended that nothing happened, but in his heart he was a little uneasy. .

Zhao Yaquan said angrily and amusedly: "You think it's all you? You're quite old and the sun is shining, what can you do?"

"This kid doesn't look like a serious person, and Miao Miao is so easy to deceive..."

Li Shuqing was still uneasy, fidgeting, and after a while, he said, "Why don't you go over and have a look? Knock on the door?"

"What door am I knocking on?"

Zhao Yaquan became more and more angry, "If you are worried, go and have a look."

"It's not suitable for me to go..."

"Is it right for me to go?"

"..."

Li Shuqing was silenced for a while, and then the more he thought about it, the more worried he became. He was always afraid that his Shuilingling cabbage, which he had raised for 17 years, would be raped.

"Forget it, I'll go and have a look... just ask them what they want to eat..."

"go Go."

Zhao Yaquan was angry and funny, he rested by himself and ignored him.

Li Shuqing went out of the room and saw that there was no one in the corridor, so he felt relieved, and went to the door of Wei Qingfan's room lightly, and carefully listened to the movement through the door.

Then I vaguely heard an exclamation, "Wow, so big?"

Li Shuqing's face turned green all of a sudden.

He raised his hand, wanted to knock on the door, put it down again, wanted to turn around and leave, but worried that he had misunderstood, so he waited and waited, but he didn't hear the sound again.

Then the face became greener and began to turn black.

At this time, I finally heard and heard the girl's exclamation.

He was about to turn around and go back when he heard voices from behind intermittently.

"how did you do that?"

"Try it..."

"Wow, it's amazing!"

This sounded serious, and the daughter seemed to be playing with some kind of toy, looking very happy, which made him a little suspicious.

Are mobile phones so fun?

"Then I'll buy one later...I'll ask my parents to see if they want..."

"Ok."

Li Shuqing was listening, when he saw the clear voice of the two people, he was startled, hurriedly walked back for a while, then turned around and came over here, pretending to have just come here.

He came to the door again, and just as the door opened, Wei Qingfan and Li Miaoyu walked out holding hands.

The three of them met each other and were all taken aback. Li Miaoyu quickly let go of his hands, and Wei Qingfan also quickly let go.

Li Shuqing didn't expect the two of them to be so fast. Seeing that his daughter's clothes were in order, he was completely relieved, and he just ignored the little gesture of holding hands, and said with a smile, "It's just that I was looking for you... Are you hungry? I want tonight what to eat?"

"It's all fine."

Li Miaoyu didn't notice Dad's abnormality, and happily shook the phone to show Dad, "I want to buy this phone too, it's fun~~"

Li Shuqing was a little surprised why she suddenly became interested in mobile phones again, but he didn't care about it, and said with a smile: "Then buy it, and call later to ask if you can still buy it."

"Uh-huh!"

Li Miaoyu nodded vigorously, then asked Wei Qingfan: "Is there only one color? I don't want such a color..."

"Uh...you can wait for a few years, when the technology is based on changing the shell..."

"What do you mean?"

"Just this one color."

"hate~"
