Hugo barra
On may 18, 2015, at the google i/o congress in the united states, mi announced that she was working closely with google to launch a new version of the millet box in the united states — a new 4k roof box supported by android tv. This millet box is based on the android tv6. 0 system, while supporting the flow of video from 4k and hdr and providing easy access to big entertainment resources for users with the support of google play. After the meeting, vice president hugo barra received an interview from emily chang, a prominent television anchor in bloomberg, and personally demonstrated the millet box。
Here is the text of the dialogue:
Emily chang: mi has just released a top box called mi box on the united states market. You've got mi tv. So, hugo, what do you think of mi box
Hugo barra: the rice box has finally come to the united states market. As you can see today, it's a streaming medium, and many people call it an ott or a roof box. In fact, we've been making television equipment in china for a long time. We did millet tv, and now the biggest tv screen is 70 inches, but we also make boxes. It is a very popular product, which can be easily accessed from the internet. The world has moved from regular television to internet television, so the millet box is more important than the cable roof box。
Emily: why in america would i buy a rice box instead of google or amazon top box or apple tv
Hugo: we put together something, including hardware and software. We use chips on our phones, so very quickly, especially when we play games. We also introduced a very unique video feature -- a four-kilogram of 60 frames per second -- which we call hdr, a new video format, and netflix and vudu are introducing similar new content。
The rice box is a very good product, and it carries android tv, which is very important. Because android tv is actually an expression of google innovation, google play, youtube and so on. These integration efforts were excellent。
Emily: when will the rice box be available? What's the price
Hugo: almost all but price, ha ha. It is a good opportunity for us to announce this product today at google i/o. We are working with google to publish this product, which will be officially released in the coming months, and it will certainly be available for sale and very good prices this year。
