CHAPTER 288: CHAPTER 289: THIS CAN WORK!

Taking advantage of this shocking opportunity, Lin Yi simultaneously announced the establishment of Celestial Core Technology, a subsidiary of Core Creation Group!

And announced Lin Jianguo as the CEO of Celestial Core Technology.

Although Lin Jianguo had always been a minor leader in his unit, he later became the head.

But compared to his son’s current group, such enterprises were mere child’s play.

Therefore, it was admittedly false to say that Lin Jianguo, who had been waiting backstage, wasn’t nervous.

Now hearing his son’s words, sweat seeped from his tightly clenched hands.

However, after so many years in the workplace, they were not for nothing; despite being nervous inside, he didn’t show a hint of it on the surface.

At least, besides Lin Yi noticing some details, no one else discovered anything.

Not to mention his specific abilities, Lao Lin indeed had some skills in speaking and dealing with people.

And given it was just a simple formality to show his face, the composure was firmly grasped throughout the press conference.

At the end, after showcasing all the features, Lin Yi took the microphone and spoke directly to the camera in front of him:

"Now that we’re reaching the end of the press conference, I will announce the installation method of this operating system and its official price!"

However, after Lin Yi’s words, many online viewers began asking puzzled questions:

’Official price? Does this Celestial Core System still charge?’

’Yeah? The Windo system I used before was free?’

Similar questions started appearing on the screen.

And naturally, there were knowledgeable people explaining below.

Win10’s official version is charged, and the price is quite expensive. People often ignore how much. The Chinese version of Win10 costs 119 US Dollars, equivalent to seven or eight hundred RMB!

Moreover, upgrading from the home version to the professional version costs 99 US Dollars, equivalent to six or seven hundred RMB.

This price can be considered quite expensive.

Even after these people explained the actual situation, netizens still weren’t willing to accept it.

However, Lin Yi didn’t even glance at these bullet comments.

He continued speaking to himself:

"Due to the considerable R&D costs of the Celestial Core System, after group research and decision, the overseas official version of the Celestial Core System is priced at 8888 RMB!"

With those words, even the reporters present were stunned.

An operating system priced at 8888 RMB, wow, they really dare to ask that much!

This price, even a fool wouldn’t buy it!

On-stage Lin Yi seemed very satisfied with everyone’s shocked expressions.

After a few breaths, he continued speaking with a smile:

"And our Huaxia official version is priced at 8.88 RMB!"

Those words left the netizens, who had been bashing Lin Yi for being heartless, dumbfounded:

’Whoa! Too rash! Who said Lin the dunce is heartless? You must be color blind because it’s blushing red here!’

’This is acceptable! Lin the dunce did good, just play it like this!’

In an instant, the comments online took a dramatic turn.

As expected, all was within Lin Yi’s plan:

"Moreover, to celebrate the establishment of Celestial Core Technology, starting now, for the next month, the Huaxia official version will be free to install!"

After saying that, without giving everyone a chance to react, he turned directly to Li Zirui at the side and said:

"Alright, Zirui, now put the installation package on Core Creation Mall!"

By the time everyone reacted, Lin Yi had already handed the microphone to Guangquan.

And the once empty center stage began to rise a row of tables and chairs from beneath.

Lin Yi and Lin Jianguo, along with Li Zirui and the people sent by Ouyang Lei, all sat on stage one by one.

At this moment, Guangquan announced that the press conference was entering the Q&A session.

Immediately, a group of reporters started frantically raising their hands to ask questions.

But it was clear, with Brother Guang here, the first question was impossible to fall into someone else’s hands.

As expected, after announcing the open Q&A, Guangquan directly raised his hand with a smile on stage.

Once again, everyone in the audience laughed.

...

Over here, Lin Yi and the core management of Celestial Core Technology started fielding questions from journalists and netizens, while across the ocean, Bill was enjoying the thrill of horse riding.

However, the phone on the couch he sat on was constantly flashing.

The screen clearly displayed a call from BOSS!

But to have better control of his ride, he had put his phone on silent mode long ago.

...

At the Microsoft Headquarters Building, inside the board meeting room, the large screen was playing the Core Creation Group’s press conference.

The biggest Boss, Gelarz, slammed his phone down on the conference table:

"That bastard Bill! Look at the mess he’s made!!"

After roaring, he gestured to the bodyguard behind him:

"Go drag him over here for me!"
