Chapter 528: Knocking Open the Door to the Smartphone Era

Clap, clap, clap!

Clearly, this rousing speech won thunderous, tsunami-like applause.

The first thought in everyone's mind was that someone who achieves fame at a young age truly has some real skills.

Their sixth sense told them that Shen Yan's words were bound to come true very soon.

Just after sitting back down in the audience, Chen Jun's hard-to-calm state of mind was suddenly lifted high again by an invisible hand, his heart surging with excitement.

Well said!

He was very much looking forward to the arrival of that day.

Regardless of how Xiaogu develops, at the very least, his efforts are a contribution to society.

Yin Yezi glanced sideways at her side, her gaze locked firmly onto the podium, and sighed softly at Chen Shanni, who was practically wearing her infatuation on her face.

This girl is beyond saving!

On stage, Shen Yan pressed his hands downward, and the applause stopped abruptly; this ability to control the room made many people secretly click their tongues in wonder as Shen Yan continued, "Everyone's time is precious, so I won't waste words.

The popularization of smartphones has made many impossibilities possible; I have come on stage today mainly to recommend four very practical pieces of software to everyone, especially the last one, which will shatter your perception of life.

You might as well look forward to it!"

Chen Jun nudged his daughter with his shoulder and asked nonchalantly, "Shanni, didn't you go to Shen Yan's company to learn a few days ago? Do you know which software it is?"

"It should be Easy Pay; Shen Yan has been listening to the person in charge report on work quite often lately." Chen Shanni felt this wasn't a secret and there was nothing she couldn't say.

"Oh?" Chen Jun rubbed his chin, a glint flashing in his eyes.

Easy Pay?

I can't see the potential value at all!

Under the expectant gazes of the audience, the answer was soon revealed.

Shen Yan pressed the laser pointer, the image on the big screen flashed, and the first piece of software leaped onto it—it was "iQIYI." He said unhurriedly, "There must be many friends here who love binge-watching dramas; you should have heard of this name. This website was launched in April of this year, and its function is very simple: watching dramas.

At ten o'clock tomorrow morning, iQIYI will officially release its app version, which means the door to the era of mobile viewing will officially open today. From now on, everyone can keep TV shows and movies in their pockets and watch them anytime, anywhere."

The next moment, the big screen began to play an actual scene of watching a drama on a mobile phone.

The clarity and fluidity were both very good.

"Wow!"

The eyes of the audience lit up, and gasps of surprise rose one after another; it was actually possible to do this—they had learned something new.

Immediately following, the second piece of software appeared, with an icon labeled "Kuaida Delivery."

Shen Yan continued to explain, "I probably don't need to introduce this app. In the future, everyone won't need a computer to order takeout; just place an order at your fingertips, and the rider will deliver the meal to the customer as quickly as possible. Plus, we've added many practical features."

Looking at the simple and fast ordering process on the big screen, the audience felt as if they were in another lifetime. Just a moment ago, technology was still crawling along like an old ox; how did it become so unfamiliar in the blink of an eye?

And those who had never ordered takeout before now had an urge to give it a try.

It's really too convenient!

The third app—Lianxin.

"This app is appearing before the public for the first time; you can think of it as another version of QQ."

Sweeping his gaze over the curious audience below, Shen Yan paused in his tone and continued, "Why do I say that? As a long-time QQ user, I haven't seen any groundbreaking updates to QQ's functionality in a long time. To be honest, I'm quite disappointed by this kind of complacency.

That's why I set out to develop Lianxin; everyone can compare the two pieces of software."

The big screen flickered.

It began to play a video introducing the features of Lianxin.

"Damn! This main page is so pretty, it's clear at a glance."

"Right, right, it looks much more comfortable on the eyes."

"Traditional QQ can't compare at all; my husband is really awesome this time."

"There's no input box on the chat interface; what does 【Hold to Talk】 mean?"

Listening to the buzzing discussion behind him like flies flapping their wings, Chen Jun's mouth curled up slightly; it seemed the audience's acceptance of Lianxin was quite high.

"Next, I will mainly introduce a new type of chat method that replaces typing: voice intercom. I will demonstrate it with President Chen."

Shen Yan turned a deaf ear to these discussions, gave a faint smile, and continued to press the laser pointer.

It was still a video playing.

In the footage, Shen Yan pressed the 【Hold to Talk】 button with his thumb and then spoke: "President Chen, ever since I saw your daughter, I've found her stunning. Would I have the honor of getting to know her?"

In their seats.

Even though they knew it was a joke, Chen Shanni and Yin Yezi still couldn't help but blush.

And they looked at Chen Jun with feigned annoyance.

Chen Jun rubbed his nose awkwardly; he couldn't be blamed for this, it was all Shen Yan's bad idea.

But in the video, Chen Jun was cursing: "Say that again, you bastard?"

Shen Yan replied: "Why don't you listen to it again, you bastard."

Hahaha!

The scene of the two of them cursing at each other instantly made the whole audience burst into laughter.

These two presidents really know how to have fun; I am not their equal!

Seriously, coming to this product launch feels like watching a crosstalk show.

At the same time, everyone also understood how to use the "voice intercom" function.

I have to say, it's quite time-saving and effortless, and it's full of fun.

At this moment, Yuan Nanpeng couldn't help but ask Chen Jun: "Looking at this setup, are you planning to enter the instant messaging industry and challenge Tencent? That's a tough nut to crack."

"Let's give it a try!" Chen Jun shrugged.

"It seems this business partner of yours has given you a great deal of confidence?"

Yuan Nanpeng took a deep look at him; Chen Jun did not deny it, only saying he felt it was worth a shot, and Yuan Nanpeng tentatively asked if he would mind him entering the fray.

"I have no objections. With Brother Peng joining, I'm even more confident now, but I still have to discuss it with Shen Yan." Chen Jun did not make any rash promises.

After all, among the shareholders of Lianxin Company, Shen Yan was the one with the real majority stake.

How could Yuan Nanpeng not understand the ins and outs of this, so he agreed with a chuckle.

Back to the main topic.

Seeing the enthusiastic response from the audience, a satisfied smile quietly hung on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, and he then asked the audience loudly: "I'll just ask you, is Lianxin easy to use?"

"It's easy to use!" the audience shouted in unison.

"As long as it's easy to use. Actually, in my vision, these features are just the tip of the iceberg for Lianxin. You might as well look forward to the subsequent version updates of Lianxin."

After leaving them in suspense, Shen Yan finally revealed the true face of the fourth app.

————Easy Pay

Before getting to the main point, Shen Yan glanced at Chen Shanni directly below; their eyes met, and inexplicably, they both understood the meaning in each other's eyes.

The corners of their lips lifted in tacit understanding.

"There should be quite a few people here who have heard this name. To put it simply, it is a third-party payment channel similar to online banking.

In April of this year, when Easy Pay went online, many people said it was a scam site, that if the boss ran away with the money, everyone would lose everything, and so on. There was all sorts of slander; it's tearful just to talk about it.

I was extremely depressed at the time, but I couldn't produce evidence to slap the netizens in the face, so I could only rely on honest operations and persist step by step until now.

Finally, two months ago, Easy Pay obtained the first domestic payment license issued by the Central Bank. I hope you media reporters will help promote it later; Easy Pay is no longer an illegitimate startup, but a formal payment channel permitted by the Central Bank."
