Along with his news is a photo of Cook and his secretary at Binhai Airport.This news immediately attracted the attention of many media.

Binhai City is not a first-tier megacity like Donghai City, and there are not many forums and activities now.Moreover, there is no Apple R&D base or the company's office in Binhai City. At this point in time, it has to be reminiscent.

"Shock!Apple admits it? "——Squirrel Headlines.

"Apple's stock plummeted, come to ask for forgiveness? "——News Eye.

"Cook, who came quietly, what's the matter?" "- Globe

……

The news spread on the Internet, and immediately attracted crowds of crowds.Many people are talking about the purpose of Cook's visit.In the end, all the conclusions point to the Army Ant Company.

At this time, the only explanation for visiting Binhai City can only be the Marching Ant Company.

"Apple's stock fell again and again, Cook had to come, otherwise Apple's share in Greater China would be over."

"Now that Apple's share in the domestic market is running out, Huawei was attacked before, and then an army ant suddenly came out behind, and it is likely to become the next Samsung."

"The Apple tax incident has made people realize the greedy face of apples. Although they have compromised now, the broken glass will still have cracks after it is restored. Many people no longer like apples."

"Unfortunately, the release of Butterfly Eye just happened to be in front of Apple. He knew that the matter was serious."

……

A large number of netizens began to comment on this matter.Various theories pushed the news to the headlines.

Cook didn't come to China many times, but this time he came here quietly, which always makes people feel that there is big news in it.Some reporters from nearby cities drove to Binhai overnight after seeing the news.

Such good news, reported on the spot, may have unexpected gains.

"What's going on? Why is this happening?"

Cook in the hotel, after seeing the news, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

Originally, when I came to Binhai City this time, not many people knew about it.As a result, not long after getting off the plane and returning to the hotel, the news that he came to Binhai City was overwhelming.

"We were photographed by reporters at the airport," the secretary said.

"Damn it." Cook, who was always good-tempered, was also a little impatient at this moment.

The matter is still fermenting. As the CEO of a big company like Apple, it is a big news to appear anywhere. This time, sneaking to Binhai City this time naturally aroused the curiosity of many people.

What kind of secret deal is this with the army ants?Confrontation or cooperation?

With this curiosity, many people began to pay attention to this matter.Because at any time in the past, this kind of thing is unique.

Early the next morning, the gate of the office building of Marching Army Ant Company was guarded by many reporters.

They didn't know the address of Cook's hotel, but the Army Ant Company was undoubtedly the most likely place for him to appear.

"That's interesting."

As soon as Chen Mo's car arrived at the entrance of the company, he saw various reporters.

Last night, he also saw the news that Cook came to Binhai City, and with a little brain, he knew that Cook must have come to find them.Unexpectedly, there were so many reporters guarding the door of the company early in the morning.

"Apple's CEO, isn't he really going to come?" Xiao Yu, who was sitting next to Chen Mo, looked a little surprised.

"Who knows? Anyway, I don't care." Chen Mo laughed.

After Chen Mo's car appeared, it attracted the attention of many reporters.But because they couldn't see the people inside the car clearly, they could only continue to wait.

The new security regulations of the Army Ant Company stipulate that vehicles outside the company must be inspected if they want to enter the company.So they weren't worried that Cook would sneak in.

After confirming his identity, Chen Mo's car entered the company smoothly.

Not long after they entered the company, an ordinary Audi stopped not far from the side of the road.

Cook looked at the office building in front of him through the window of the car, with no expression on his face, but he was not in a good mood.

It's hard to imagine that a company that even rented out the company's headquarters actually made him feel threatened in his bones, and even came over in person.

It's just that he has a bit of a headache now, going in like this makes him feel a little bit unwilling.

At present, the size of the two companies is not at the same level. Coming here this time is simply a self-deprecation.Looking at the reporters with long guns and short cannons on the side of the road, Cook's expression became even uglier.

"Go back to the hotel." Cook said lightly.

Along the way, Cook was not in a good mood.During this period of time, the stock continued to fall. Just when he arrived in Binhai City last night, he received a call from the company. After the stock market opened, the stock price fell again by 0.9%.

For the size of their company, 0.9% is billions of dollars.

"About the chairman of Marching Ant Company, let's meet at the hotel." Once back at the hotel, Cook frowned and said after thinking about it.

Chapter 79 Shopping malls are like battlefields

"What technology will you use this time?"

In the huge space of the Science and Technology Library, Mr. Shu stood in front of Chen Mo.Now I have seen the 743rd book, which is the hard work of Chen Mo in the past two months since he took the laser sensor.

I read more than 140 books in two months. This speed is much slower than before.But he doesn't care, there are still 257 books in the end, and the first stage can be completed.

After the laser sensor came out, Chen Mo planned to acquire the technology this time.Just decided to get it today.

"The design drawing of the robot, the humanoid robot, can be achieved by the current technology. Mr. Shu, you can call out all the appearances and let me have a look." Chen Mo said.

"can."

With a wave of Mr. Shu's hand, books with the covers of various humanoid robots were densely packed, filling the huge space in the center of the Science and Technology Library.

Chen Mo's scalp is numb. There are all humanoid robots in here. There are not a few humanoid robots as big as Transformers. They are just for viewing or have any effect. Chen Mo doesn't know.

"The size is the size of a normal human being." Chen Mo said bravely.

"Yes." Elder Shu waved his hand again, and all the other robots disappeared, but then some other books on robot design appeared to make up for it.

Chen Mo doesn't care how many books there are, it's not important anymore.

He knows that even if he develops unscrupulously for a lifetime, it is impossible to get all the technological skills in it.

Chen Mo searched among the piles of books, and finally chose a robot with a relatively good-looking appearance and not so difficult to manufacture.

He is currently a trainee, and the blueprints he has obtained do not have software.But Chen Mo doesn't care, the software can be written, or Mo Nu can control it.His laboratory needs more help from an assistant.

Xiaoyu doesn't understand technology, and it's impossible for him to stay by his side every day.For the others, Chen Mo is not at ease. After all, there are too many secrets, and the existence of artificial intelligence cannot be revealed for the time being, so he decided to choose a robot assistant.

As soon as he came out of the science and technology library with the robot's design drawing, Zhao Min entered his office.

"People from Apple contacted, Cook would like to invite you to talk about cooperation."

Chen Mo fell into deep thought, and shook his head after a while: "It's not convenient for me to get out, I can't leave the company for the time being, and I want to talk about cooperation, so come over to the company and talk to me. Please let us talk to him, the order of subject and guest is different, as if we are begging them to cooperate .”

Zhao Min nodded, agreeing with Chen Mo's words.She just let me know that if Chen Mo chooses to go there, she will also remind him. Now that Chen Mo said so, it proves that he has the bottom line in his heart.

"I'm also wondering why he didn't come to talk to us. It stands to reason that they should come and want to cooperate, so they should take the initiative to visit." Zhao Min said.

"Who said they came to discuss cooperation with us? He didn't say anything about cooperation with us, did he?" Chen Mo looked at Zhao Min.

Chen Mo's words made Zhao Min suddenly realize that he had fallen into the trap of thinking inertia.

She knew that Cook's visit to Binhai City was also to cooperate with them.But just now it was just a phone call, and they didn't meet the real person, so there are still many articles to do.

"The cooperation with us was mentioned by the media. He didn't tell the public what he came to Binhai City for. The outside world said that he came to our company, and we were sure they wanted to cooperate.

But he didn't count as a visit to our company until he stepped through the door of our company.If we rush over to meet them, the article here will be too big, and we might be finished. "Chen Mo said.

If they go to see Cook, the meaning becomes different.They knew that Apple had invited them there, but outsiders and the media didn't.

At that time, the media said that they took the initiative to ask Apple for cooperation. To put it bluntly, they knelt down and licked the apple without any integrity.

Once this kind of thing happened, in the eyes of the uninformed people, it was not Cook who was discussing cooperation with them, but the Marching Ant Company saw Cook coming and took the initiative to post it.

The violence of Internet rumors, Marching Ant Company tried more than once.

He didn't know what Cook was thinking, but he had to be cautious.Shopping malls are like battlefields, and a small mistake in decision-making may lead to undoing.

"Actually, there may be another possible reason. There are too many reporters here. He came here and didn't want the media to know, so he came here quietly. It's just unfortunate that the news leaked." Chen Mo laughed.

"The company with the largest market value in the world, it is impossible for the CEO to come to see us in person. It may be because our Butterfly Eye is listed, and the smart assistant does not support IOS. Apple's stock price fell again and again, which drove him into a hurry. So Since he lowered his value, you have to know who he met when he came to China a few times ago."

Cook has been in and out of Zhongnanhai several times, and all he meets are the vice premier or the minister of industry and information technology, as well as the chairman of China Mobile.Now as long as he doesn't meet with Chen Mo, the two sides don't count as contact.

If Cook really entered Marching Ant Company under the lens of the media, it would undoubtedly be a self-deprecation.So invite Chen Mo over to talk, and take the initiative in your own hands.

In case the cooperation between the two parties fails, he will visit other cities, or go to the mobile phone store to visit. The euphemistic name is: to investigate the market.

And once this happens, Apple will take the initiative.When they failed to cooperate with the Army Ant Company, the Army Ant Company took the initiative to post a letter asking for cooperation, but was rejected by Apple in the end.

At that time, cyber violence will follow one after another, and they will be in trouble. Regardless of whether the two parties cooperate in the end, Apple will be able to retreat unscathed.

"It seems that my worries are unnecessary." Zhao Min said.

In principle, she would not agree with Chen Mo going to see Cook either.From Chen Mo saying that Cook did not announce his purpose of coming to Binhai City, she already knew that Chen Mo understood the pros and cons of it.

"Rejecting their invitation, we welcome them to visit, and it doesn't matter if they don't come. We haven't been so miserable that the other party has a call, so we have to obediently go to the point of discussing cooperation with them."

Chen Mo can't say whether he likes or dislikes the Apple brand. After all, the products are indeed better than others.

But he didn't like Jobs, the founder of Apple, very much.

This person is deified in China, but many people don't know that Jobs has never stepped into China in his life, and he still has extreme arrogance and prejudice against China.

He didn't even bother to hide his distaste for this big eastern country in public.When the Apple mobile phone first appeared, he said that he would not enter the Chinese market for the time being, but later he had to come in order to make money.

Perhaps it is because of this arrogance and prejudice that affects Apple, which makes Apple have a different attitude towards consumers in China and other consumers.

The previously exposed warranty issues used double standards. Later, for the reward issue, there was an Apple tax incident with a 30% handling fee, which squeezed domestic consumers time and time again.Apple's sales are underlined, and part of it is Apple's death.

As Jobs' successor, Cook may appear to be close to China on the surface, but Chen Mo doesn't believe it. There is no trace of arrogance in his bones. The Apple tax incident is an example.Jobs was absent, and in order to maintain Apple's performance, he had to come to China many times.

After learning about Chen Mo's thoughts, Zhao Min left Chen Mo's office area.As soon as she left, Chen Mo called out Mo Nu and asked Mo Nu to help organize the materials and design drawings needed by the robot.As for the matter of Apple, let it be, he will not take the initiative, this is his principle.

Chapter 80 The Second Rejection

The news was spreading, but there was no sign of Cook, which made the media people guarding the army ant company feel strange.Cook did not visit the Army Ant Company, nor did he appear elsewhere in Binhai City.

Inside the Army Ant Company, everything was calm.

The news doesn't seem to be what they thought it was.

Inside the Army Ant Company, reporters are not allowed to enter the interview casually. Since Cook was exposed at Binhai Airport last night, he has not shown up. They don't even know which hotel Cook is staying in.

For a while, the reporters who were guarding outside the Army Ant Company became anxious.

Cook sat on the sofa in the hotel with his eyes closed and rested, with a tired look on his face.

I just came here last night, the jet lag is not reversed, and now I am not in a good mood, and I am not in a good mood.

When the U.S. stock market closed, Apple’s stock price fell by another 1%. Now they are still being rejected by Marching Ants. It doesn’t feel good to be rejected.

Now in a dilemma, Marching Army Ant Company has clearly responded that if they want to talk about business.Go to the Army Ant Company, they won't take the initiative to come over.It is impossible for him to gain the initiative.

But if he left without talking about anything, then all his plans for coming to Binhai City this time will be scrapped.How to solve the problem is what he will do next.

Now the launch of the new Apple S2 will start soon. Its performance is similar to that of Marching Ants, but without the smart assistant, the function of Siri cannot be compared with that of Fluttershy.

In terms of battery life, it is Apple's shortcoming. Apart from the advantages of having bionic chips, he can't think of the advantages of their mobile phones.

If the press conference is held like this, I am afraid that the sales volume this time will suffer from Waterloo.

The last time the black hats were asked to steal the source code of the smart assistant at the Marching Ant Company, the result failed, and the company's computer suffered a disaster, and it has not been announced to the public.

They're investing considerable manpower, expanding siri's capabilities, and artificial intelligence research.

But it is almost impossible to make a breakthrough in a short period of time.The most important thing now is to get the smart assistant to break the situation, otherwise they will lose most of the market in Greater China, and the internationalization of marching ants in the future will be even more troublesome for them.

Not long after, Cook opened his eyes and took out his mobile phone to contact the secretary: "Contact the people from Marching Ant Company and ask them to go out and talk."

At this time, in Marching Army Ant Company, Chen Mo was sitting in the office having lunch with Xiao Yu.

Most of the time, at noon, Xiao Yu would eat with Chen Mo.Sometimes, I go out to eat.Occasionally, meals are prepared and brought to the company in a lunch box in the morning.

"I found that the dishes made by my Xiaoyu are much more delicious than those outside." Chen Mo laughed.

As soon as his words fell, a gleam of joy appeared on Xiao Yu's face.Just pretending to give him a blank look.When the two are together, when no one is around, Chen Mo will sometimes say some nasty little love words.

Xiao Yu is naturally happy to be praised by someone he likes.There is no vigorous love, at least simple and very good.

"Eat more if it tastes good, so many dishes can't block your mouth." Xiao Yu put all his strength into Chen Mo's bowl.
