Chapter 1333: Using the heart of a villain to judge the heart of a gentleman
On that day, online news was already online. CITIC Semiconductor launched an epoch-making mobile phone with panoramic and 360-degree close-ups. Media people who had experienced it were full of praise and praised this mobile phone to the sky.

But then again, is this phone really as good as imagined? I'm afraid that's not necessarily the case. After all, it is the first real smartphone, and it will still have many problems, so there is room for continuous improvement.

There are two main reasons why there are so many boasts. The first reason is that the media wants to attract the attention of the audience, so naturally the more flashy the boasts, the better.

As for the second reason, it is very realistic. There is a special term for taking advantage of others, which is called media public relations. When people write articles and reports for you, they naturally need to give you some polish. Things about literati and elegant people should not be said in such vulgar ways. .

Wall Street was shocked. BlackBerry is considered the number one product in the digital industry in the United States. When 911 happened, in the bunker under the white house, other mobile phones had no signal, but BlackBerry had signal. Their commander-in-chief had to use BlackBerry.

Because of this news, the stock price fell four points that day. Regarding such twists and turns, Jiang Hua could only say that everyone has not yet realized the horror of smartphones. If people knew that all mobile phones now would be eliminated by smartphones, , then the BlackBerry phone will probably fall below the limit for several days in a row.

Steve also urged technicians in the company to upgrade his mobile phone. He is a paranoid person. The mobile phone in his dream is not like this, and it is almost impossible.

"Steve, Steve." His assistant ran into the research room panting: "Steve, something serious has happened."

"Relax, there's nothing more important right now than having a phone in front of us."

The assistant said in a confused tone: "Perhaps you should look online. CITIC Semiconductor has just released their first mobile phone, a cross-generational product."

"CITIC Semiconductor?" Steve thought of his old friend Jiang Hua: "Jiang is a genius. What genius does he have?"

"Now is not the time for sympathy. He has made all our efforts go to waste."

The assistant casually picked up the keyboard on the table and entered the URL, then opened a web page and turned the screen to the direction Steve saw.

"Look, this is their product."

Steve glanced at it casually. He didn't care at first, but when he saw the appearance of the phone clearly, he immediately squatted down and hugged the computer screen.

"Is this a new mobile phone released by CITIC Semiconductor?"

The assistant nodded: "Yes, they named it IPhone, Internet Phone."

"Shit!" Steve yelled. "Everything was destroyed. Everything we had was destroyed. They made the first smart phone in the strict sense. They even named it what I wanted. All of Apple’s strategies are over.”

The product manager thought for a while and said: "If we can get it on the market before them, there is still a chance."

"There's no chance." Steve yelled: "The other person's mobile phone has been released, and our mobile phone is only a semi-finished product. Even if ours is not a semi-finished product, we still need to find someone to make it. Which company do you think there is in the world?" The production speed of digital products is comparable to that of CITIC. They are the largest foundry in the world. More than 60% of digital products in the entire U.S. are manufactured by them. My original plan was also to find them. ”

After Steve finished scolding, he thought for a while and asked: "This mobile phone has so many functions, and it must require a lot of patents. I don't believe they have all the profits. Go check for me how they solve the patent problem. Do you need a lot of patents?" You know, even we at Apple are still discussing patent issues with other companies." Steve's assistant thought for a while and said: "During the Jianghua era, CITIC Semiconductor was already searching for some patents that they thought were useful around the world. So far, the functions I can see are all patented or licensed.”

"Shit." Steve scolded: "Back then, I praised Jiang and said he was a genius, and he also said I was a genius. Now it seems that he is far more talented than me."

Steve took a deep breath: "I need some peace and quiet."

There is a Zen room in Apple's office specially decorated for him. When he needs to calm down and think, he will come here to meditate, but this Zen is still Xiaodongyang's.

After returning to the city, Steves took a few breaths and picked up his phone.

"Jiang, congratulations, your company has released an amazing product."

"This is nothing." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "CITIC Semiconductor has been working hard for almost ten years for this mobile phone product."

"I thought about it. I remember you predicted a long time ago that mobile phones would replace the functions of computers and become an indispensable tool in people's lives."

"Steve, you have to know that prophecies are just casual words. Those who are capable will realize this prophecy. No matter how good the prophecy is made by those who are incompetent, it is just empty talk."

Steve sighed: "You know, CITIC made all Apple's plans go to waste."

Jiang Hua pretended to be surprised: "Why do you say that? Are you also studying this kind of mobile phone?"

"Of course, it's just that we are still a semi-finished product and you have already released the product." Steve said with some frustration: "Compared with you, Apple and I are not even a little bit behind."

"Don't be so modest. Apple is a great company. Things like product development are uncertain. Number one and number two actually don't mean much."

Steve's tone was full of powerlessness: "In addition to congratulating you now, I just want to ask, if Apple launches its own mobile phone one day, will CITIC Semiconductor still OEM for us?"

The number one position is unchangeable. Steve has to plan for longer-term things and develop products. When it comes to manufacturing, CITIC Group is far ahead in the world.

"Of course." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "Of course we can OEM for you. We will not turn away orders casually. After all, so many OEM employees still need orders to support themselves."

Steve asked worriedly: "You're not going to charge us an exorbitant price, are you?"

"Don't worry, we will get whatever the market price is." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "Steve, we have an old saying, a villain's heart is used to judge a gentleman's belly. You should learn more about our culture instead of Huddle up in your little Japanese-style Zen room all day long, there is nothing good about Xiaoyang, and if you continue like this, you will become more and more out of place.
