Chapter 441 What is UI?
Chen Yu gave a simple example of the technique of scarcity marketing, and Liang suddenly understood, his eyes lighting up.
"Don't get too cocky. This kind of business model is just asking for trouble, which is why I made sure Mi's efforts had absolutely nothing to do with Yun Technology," Chen Yu said, pouting as he saw Liang's excited expression.
Liang, who was "understanding," naturally knew that such a thing would definitely arouse the resentment of consumers, especially in the later stages, and might even be boycotted by the whole nation, ultimately resulting in a bad reputation.
Understanding this, Liang became even more determined to sever ties with Mi.
"Alright, let me see how well this phone works!" Chen Yu said with a light smile.
Open your phone and start operating.
Chen Yu first found the system kernel, which was Android version 2.3.6, the most classic version, which can be considered the origin of Android.
The interface design is truly exceptionally ugly.
Completely pristine.
Chen Yu was speechless. "Your system is way too primitive. Can't you put some effort into adapting it to the phones you designed? Fine, consider this a bonus from me! I'll redesign the UI."
"Now let me take a look at the internal structure. Although ordinary consumers can't see how it works, many review organizations are quite impressed with its internal design. A phone's internal design isn't necessarily better the more sophisticated it is; on the contrary, I think the simpler the better. You've probably heard the saying, 'The greatest truths are the simplest.' If you can simplify the design of numerous functions, then you're amazing, you're a master. It's easy to go from simple to complex, but difficult to go from complex to simple." As Chen Yu spoke, he moved to the side, found a universal screwdriver, and began disassembling the phone.
Upon seeing this, all the scientists and researchers were dumbfounded. This boss is truly amazing. Other bosses just look at the exterior, but this boss understands technology and is different; he goes straight to the internal structure.
I estimate that this is probably the only one of its kind in the world.
However, they were not dissatisfied; on the contrary, they were very excited because they could see Chen Yu's abilities. Chen Yu had always been rumored to be very powerful, but how strong he really was was little known.
"I'd give the disassembly difficulty three stars. It's not too difficult! But it would be even better if it were simpler, as that would make after-sales maintenance easier and reduce repair costs."
However, to prevent ordinary users from disassembling the phone themselves, simple Phillips head screws are obviously not enough. Hex screws should be used instead, which can effectively prevent ordinary users from disassembling the phone at will.
This avoids the problem of damaging the phone, but I believe it's useless for those with strong hands-on skills. Taobao definitely won't release professional disassembly tools within a month." Chen Yu's hands moved very quickly as he spoke.
In just three minutes, Chen Yu had completely disassembled all the parts, arranging each one neatly.
"Now I'll look at your designs. Of course, if you think there are any problems with mine, you can point them out so we can all improve together!" Chen Yu said with a light smile.
Then he began to disassemble the phone in his hand, which had already been taken apart and was full of parts.
Chen Yu possessed many stunning designs and concepts for mobile phones from later generations, so he held great disdain for those scientists, designers, and researchers regarding this design, which was equivalent to the Stone Age.
"Wait, Your Highness, pause for a moment, let us take notes!" They were completely impressed. This guy was an absolute genius. They had spent so much time designing and developing this phone, investing a lot of manpower and resources, and he disassembled it in a minute, pointing out some of its drawbacks and problems.
"No problem!" Chen Yu nodded gently.
Chen Yu has done a good job in developing his employees!
After a nearly hour-long explanation, Chen Yu finally finished explaining the design of the phone.
More often, they offer suggestions and point out some unreasonable designs on the facade.
"Okay, that's all I have for the phone design. Give me one night and I'll design the system UI!"
"Mr. Chen, what does 'ui' mean?" a young man asked.
"You didn't know?!" Chen Yu was taken aback and asked in surprise.
Everyone shook their heads!
Chen Yu suddenly realized that smartphones had just been invented and many people were unfamiliar with the concept of UI.
"UI is short for User Interface. It generally refers to the user's operating interface. UI design mainly refers to the style and aesthetics of the interface. However, in terms of usability, the overall design of the software's human-computer interaction, operating logic, and interface aesthetics is another equally important aspect. A good UI not only makes the software more personalized and tasteful, but also makes the software operation comfortable, simple, and free, fully reflecting the software's positioning and characteristics," Chen Yu explained.
The technicians nodded repeatedly in agreement.
At the same time, they grasped a new term, and Chen Yu even defined a new thing. Liang also understood that this UI was very important for future development; it was a powerful tool for the development of Android.
"However, UI is not just about looking good. Its most fundamental aspect is interaction. Aesthetics are just to make it easier for people to accept, learn, and use, and to make them more willing to engage with it."
But its biggest purpose is only one thing: interaction. One of the important functions of a smartphone is interaction. Without interaction, what is the point of having a smartphone? "Okay, give me a quiet space, I'll work on the system!" Chen Yu said softly.
"Here?!" Liang was stunned. To finish it in one night? That's unbelievable!
"Yes, I have a thorough understanding of the UI design, and I also handled the detailed design of this Android content, so it's quick to get started. Of course, I also need to make sure my computer is fast!" Chen Yu said softly.
“No problem, I have a high-performance computer here!” said an elderly man in his sixties.
"Alright, I'll use it. You guys pack up your phones!" Chen Yu said with a light smile.
Led by the staff, Chen Yu arrived at the machine and immediately recognized it as the $100 million microserver from Zhanlong Technology!
"Um, Your Highness, can we watch you work on it while we're here?" the guy who had just asked him what ui was said to Chen Yu.
"Seeing is fine, but I don't have time to explain it to you, nor do I have time to answer your questions. And you absolutely cannot interrupt my train of thought. If you can do that, I have nothing to say!"
