Chapter 17 Custom Thinking
Joss did not continue to keep them guessing.
"In terms of hardware, we can create a product matrix and launch a custom service."
These two new words had already appeared, and everyone was confused again.
Product matrix?
Custom service?
What exactly was Lord Joss talking about?
"Product matrix, as the name implies, is the many elements that make up a phone. For example, the phone we are promoting now is a black square with secret patterns engraved on it, which is relatively simple.
"Some people would naturally not like this look.
"Therefore, we can change the appearance of the phone, or even strengthen the functions of one of its components.
"Secondly..."
Joss explained slowly.
Half an hour later, everyone came to a sudden realization and once again lamented that their lives had been wasted.
"As for the software, it is to create new ones, develop new software, and add new functions to the phone."
Everyone understood this point.
When the phone was manufactured, they discovered that there were many empty etched chips with secret engravings in the phone. As long as they branded some secret magic engravings on them, they would be able to engrave some spells.
Such as shields, fireballs...
Yes, a magic cell phone could not only be used to communicate with others, it could even be used as a treasure for mages to fight.
After establishing these two directions of development, the crowd dispersed in confusion.
However, this was a matter of whether the twins could turn the tables, no matter how cautious they were.
Joss clearly understood this.
He shouted out another person, "Fran, have you done the investigation I asked you to do?"
Everyone looked at a tall and thin man in unison.
Fran had always been quiet, and there was little sense of presence in the Twin Towers. If Joss had not suddenly spoken, they would have subconsciously forgotten about this person.
Even so, Fran held an important position.
He was the information coordinator of the Twin Towers.
It did not only include the registration of the mages of the Twin Towers, but also the number of people who lived, circulated, and died every year. It also included the entry and exit data of various resources.
This time, it was also Joss' order to investigate who had bought the phones.
This was very important.
"Sir, according to the investigation, there are two main types of people who buy magic phones. One is the usually wealthier mages. They have enough money, so even if they buy a phone, it won't affect their practice of magic."
Fran reported unhurriedly.
"The other type is the adventurers who buy two or three phones in a group. After all, for them, it's necessary to have communication in all kinds of dangerous areas."
After listening to the report, Joss nodded.
He looked at the others and asked with a smile, "Do you see any clues?"
Clues?
Was there anything wrong with this?
Everyone kept pondering. Joss definitely would not say such things for no reason. Then there must be important information hidden in this.
This time, Joss did not say it in advance.
He was waiting.
After all, with the emergence of all kinds of inventions, he could not be like a nanny when every invention appeared and handle everything on his own.
The mages of the Twin Towers should learn to think on their own.
To think was a very good thing, and the information hidden in it was so obvious. After a moment, someone said, "Sir, are you trying to tell us that among the people who bought the phones, the ordinary mages and some big families of mages are the minority?"
Everyone was full of eagerness.
"That's right!"
Joss affirmed, "In the Hopeland Continent, the people who control the most wealth are the nobles. They have powerful families behind them, and they have enough power. The other two are the huge number of ordinary mages. They have a huge number, and the price of the phone is not expensive, but they rarely buy it."
"No, sir."
A mage stood up and said respectfully, "Those ordinary mages don't want to buy phones. I think it's because the existing phone is redundant for them."
"You're not bad!"
Joss was a little surprised and praised sincerely, "What's your name?"
"Bisoth, I joined this year."
"Congratulations, Bisoth, you've found a blind spot. Just as you said, ordinary people can buy it, but they will use every copper coin carefully. The current magic phone has various modules, but we set up many of the modules in advance.
"But for ordinary mages, they only care about the function of communication."
Everyone understood and quickly deduced the reason why the magic families did not buy them.
If these nobles used the same phones as ordinary people, how could they show their nobility?
This was something they could never accept!
"Sir, could this be the so-called product matrix, custom-made?"
Someone exclaimed.
Everyone immediately came back to their senses, their hearts in shock.
It turned out that Joss had already told them the answer. Ironically, after listening to Fran's report, they actually did not think of this.
Seeing that everyone had figured it out, Joss did not bother to waste his time.
However, in some aspects, he still gave some unconstrained ideas.
For example...
the appearance of a magic phone did not have to be made into a square. It could be made into a communication ring or a communication bracelet. This was not difficult for sorcerers.
There was no need to specially open up a new production line for this.
This was because this was private customization that could be enjoyed.
As for those ordinary people who were meticulous, it was to cut out unnecessary modules. As long as the basic functions of the cell phone were guaranteed, along with the price reduction, these people would be taken in.
These two strategies were perfect and no one objected.
This time, Gray seemed to have finally understood and said the few advertising slogans that made joss satisfied.
[Twin magic phone. The first phone for young people!]
Time slowly disappeared.
The people in the meeting room who were happily discussing did not care at all and expressed their opinions one after another.
Seeing that the discussion was almost over and the rest of the matters could be handed over to Charles, Gray, and the others to handle, Joss had the thought of leaving, he said, "Charles, you guys handle the rest. I need to practice for some time and also plan the magic phone software."
The most important part of the magic phone software was the magic runes from the system.
This matter could only be handled by Joss.
Moreover, with the release of the phones, the magic invention system earned a large sum of invention points. Joss could not wait any longer.
Thus, after saying that, Joss teleported back to his residence.
Vera cried out in surprise when she saw Joss. However, he went straight into his training room and closed the door, leaving Vera, whose face was full of complaints, looking at the messy hall and muttering.
