The end of technology.

But at this moment, Lu Xiaoya just wanted to beat up that inexplicable guy.

"Still laughing... are you still laughing?"

"Well, Xiaoya, I seem to have recorded the video of you dancing that day. If I also post it on station B, I might earn a lot of coins. Then I will treat you to dinner, okay?"

"Huang Siqi, how dare you!"

"Don't let the fat water flow into the fields of outsiders. I was not the only one who recorded you when you danced that day. When some classmates see this, they will definitely think of you. Maybe they will pass it on..."

Before Siqi finished speaking, Lu Xiaoya quickly searched for the word "Sister Xiaoya" on the B station search, and sure enough, she saw that there was already a video called "Sister Xiaoya you want". A picture of her dancing at the military training party.

It was a semi-impromptu national style dance. Although he was wearing military training clothes and the dubbing was blue and white porcelain played directly by his classmates on his mobile phone, the youthful and graceful figure and the dancing posture full of aura could not be concealed by these external environments.

Especially in the middle of the dance, there is a movement of turning the body sideways and lowering the head quickly before raising the head. The hat worn during the general training is thrown off, and the long hair is lifted up in an instant, creating a more enchanting beauty out of thin air...

The only good thing is that it was a party at night, and their class was assigned to a corner of the square, and the lights were not bright.In addition, the camera of the mobile phone may not be very good, you can only see the figure dancing with the singing, and the face is still quite blurry...

Lu Xiaoya also noticed that the upload time was only 15 minutes, the number of views had reached more than 1200, and there were more than 30 bullet screens, and the whole person suddenly became even worse.

"Ah... tell me quickly, who is that Luo Lixin?! I'm going to the boys' dormitory to tear him up right now!"

Yes, they were all freshmen after all, and they hadn't taken a few classes together. The name Luo Lixin was only familiar to her, and she knew that she was her classmate, but she couldn't match the specific person with the name.

"Hey, Xiaoya, don't make trouble, aren't you going to send it to your door?"

"That's right, if you really go to the boys' dormitory to find someone, it's not certain who will tear it up."

"Actually, you can't just blame our classmates. If I want to say this, I have to blame the god in the school's mathematics department. Youwei Group has already said that their little art is helped by some great god. Or, you Let’s tear up that great master in the mathematics department first.”

"That's right, that's right, let the great god compensate each of us in the dormitory with one M10pro, and it will be your mental damage fee."

"Haha, don't be angry, my sisters will treat you to dinner tonight! Then let's seriously discuss how we can talk to the Great God about compensation!"

The three sisters in the dormitory held Lu Xiaoya who was about to go berserk...

Although they haven't been in contact for a long time, all three of them know that although Lu Xiaoya looks petite and beautiful, but she looks pretty, probably because she really dared to go to the boys' dormitory to beat someone up...

There is no other reason. Everyone still remembers what Xiaoya's father, a tall and burly man, said to his daughter reluctantly before leaving: "Xiaoya, if you are bullied by a boy at school, Call Dad and tell Dad, Dad is here to help you vent your anger!"

During this period of contact, I learned that Xiaoya's father still practiced free combat, won the national championship championship, and now works as a coach in the Provincial Sports Institute.

Come to think of it, in this family, beating people might be a family tradition.

"You guys are enough, what does this have to do with Ning Zi?"

"Why doesn't it matter? If he hadn't created this little art for Youwei, that Luo Lixin would naturally not have thought of this way to confess his love to you, and this matter would not have happened, so Ning Zi is all to blame!"

"That's right, it's all Ning Zi's fault!"

"And that Xiaoyi's voice sounded unserious. It means that the Great God may not be serious either. Hey...really, Xiaoya, you may consider seducing the Great God, if you succeed..."

"Huang Siqi, how dare you say, die..."

The four girls suddenly made a fuss.

Well, at least most of the depression that was inexplicably exposed on the Internet disappeared.

……

Of course, Ning Zi didn't know that he had become an unserious master in the mouths of several girls of the same class.If you know, you will probably only feel wronged.After all, he has not participated in the various debugging of these voice assistants, nor has he suggested which voice actors should be invited to dub Xiaoyi.

For specific technologies, these are minutiae.Of course, it is impossible for him to explain this to a layman.

He still has a lot to deal with.For example, the general manager of Apple Greater China in front of him.

Ning Zi was willing to talk to Ge Linyue, so he had a plan.

It really doesn't mean that Apple has money, as Ning Zi said to Ge Linyue, money is something that many companies have.But technology has a very obvious feature. If you don’t spend money, you will definitely not get it; but if you invest a lot of money, you may not be successful, and even if you succeed, the effect may not be as expected.

But a large international company like Apple has a good point and has a lot of cards.I can always think of various ways to buy some advanced instruments and equipment that are very difficult for China to import.Most importantly, the most advanced instruments and equipment can be specially ordered.

China is a big industrial country.

But this is big, mainly because it has a complete range of categories and a complete industrial chain.There is still a considerable gap between laboratory instruments in the most sophisticated fields.Although more than 20 years have passed since the Wassenaar Agreement, it is still in effect.

So if you can reach a cooperation with Apple, it is still good.According to the calculation just in March, at least three to five years of time can be saved.

But negotiating things like this, don't be in a hurry.

It just so happens that this is in line with Ning Zi's temperament.

He is really in no hurry.

It just so happened that Ge Linyue was really in a hurry.

"Ning Zi, five years is really too long. If we just donate a chip research and development center to the University, but don't ask for a reserve price for the results of the future chip research and development center, can this time be brought forward? For example, help our Siri in the near future. upgrade?"

Ning Zi glanced at Ge Linyue and asked, "Are you sure?"

Ge Linyue replied: "It's just one of the cooperation plans. You must at least tell me what you think, so that I can make a choice."

Ning Zi quietly touched the cat's head, and after thinking for a while, he said: "That's not impossible, you first build the R&D center according to the cooperation content mentioned before. In addition, I will draw up a list of required equipment for you , the functions of some of the instruments need to be specially customized, and when these instruments are in place, I can help you upgrade Siri."

"That will be at least a year later." Ge Linyue said holding back her anger.

"Well, if you hurry up, maybe ten months will be enough." Ning Zi replied.

"Do you think we will break the contract after signing it?"

"I'm just a student. Apple is a world-class company. I don't have any countermeasures. Naturally, it's better to be safe."

"Because we are a world-class company, we will pay more attention to reputation."

"Oh!" Ning Zi glanced at the time on the computer and said, "There are still 15 minutes."

Ge Linyue was taken aback, and said in surprise, "What 15 minutes?"

Ning Zi glanced at Chen Yonggang and said, "Didn't Principal Chen tell you? I only have time to meet guests for school matters, and after two o'clock I need to do my research."

Chen Yonggang immediately replied sonorously: "I must have said this."

Ge Linyue's eyebrows frowned even deeper, and she asked, "It means that if I can't make a decision in 15 minutes, the cooperation between the two parties will not be discussed this time?"

Ning Zi shrugged and said, "You can wait until this time tomorrow."

"I..." Ge Linyue took a deep breath, suppressed the urge to explode, and said, "I need to make a call."

"Oh, there is a conference room at the corner of the building, I'll take you there." Chen Yonggang nodded and said proactively.

"Thank you."

……

America, Apple headquarters.

It was already late at night, and the rest time on weekdays had already passed, but Tim Cook still stayed in the study, processing one file after another.

Many people misunderstand Tim Cook's ability, thinking that after the Apple CEO took over Apple, this once great company has gradually lost its original aura.

But it is clear that these people's evaluations are biased.

In fact, shareholders within Apple are extremely positive about Tim Cook's work.

Even though Jobs was once a genius, for Apple's shareholders, they even prefer the new CEO who doesn't like performance on weekdays but makes Apple continue to create greater glories amid scolding.

Yes, most of Tim Cook's critics ignore his strong management ability and magician-like resource allocation ability.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, even a paranoid person like Jobs has a lot of trust in Tim Cook. Such a character is definitely not too simple.

At this time, what Tim Cook is doing is to re-deploy Apple's global resources and supply chain to pave the way for the next Iphone 8 series sales.

The sudden outbreak of Youwei Group's M10 series products is a black swan event for Apple.At this time, playing a time difference is undoubtedly the most favorable choice.Users' smartphone updates have their own inherent frequency.Generally speaking, customers who purchased a flagship model of a certain brand in that year will not consider flagship mobile phones of other brands for at least one year.

Fortunately, Apple's 8-series mobile phone products are released one month earlier than the promising M10 series, and 60.00% of the annual shipment plan has been completed.

The release of the M10 will definitely affect Apple's sales in the high-end market, so it is entirely possible to release part of the production capacity to other markets around the world.

It was Green Moon's suggestion, but Tim Cook was only going to listen to half of it.

He intends to formulate more flexible sales policies for Europe and North America first.

Youwei Group has obtained CE ROHS certification in Europe and FCC certification in the United States, but the good news is that Youwei Group has upgraded the smartphone assistant, which also means that this upgrade may need to be reviewed separately.

This time difference allows Apple to preemptively occupy most of the market to ensure the sales of Apple's 8 series products and to ensure that Apple's annual financial report is as good as ever.

November is about to enter, and Thanksgiving is approaching. If we can seize this wave of Thanksgiving activities, so that the Apple 8 series can have enough stock, and then sell a wave of sales peaks, this year's task will be almost done.

That's what Tim Cook is doing right now.By deploying global resources, we will ensure the supply of key global markets in the future.

Until the phone rang suddenly.

Tim Cook has just been relieved from a pile of paperwork that needs to be re-signed.

Great, it was the call he was waiting for.

"Hello, Ge, tell me, there is good news, right?"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Cook, but maybe the news isn't that exciting. Here's the thing..."

Tim Cook listened quietly to the report on the other side with a calm expression.

Until the opposite side reports.

"Okay, I probably understand. Your task today is to get the list of equipment and instruments he needs first, and then forward them to my mailbox. As the kid said, there is no need to worry about this matter. Everything Everything will be fine, right?"

"Of course, Mr. Cook."

"But you can stay in Huaxia Capital for a few days."

"Okay, that's what I intend too."

"Well, that's good. Goodbye."

"goodbye!"

After hanging up the phone, Tim Cook stretched himself, it was time to rest.

……

"A list of equipment and instruments?"

"Of course, we need to evaluate whether this cooperation is worthwhile." After talking with Tim Cook, Green Moon was obviously much tougher.

"Okay, I'll send you an email." Ning Zi nodded.

"This evaluation may take some time." Green Yue said casually.

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry."

"Maybe we're not in a hurry."

"That's pretty good. Oh, by the way, Samsung Electronics will hold a future technology forum in Beijing on the 28th of this month. There will be a keynote speech by an AI expert. I was invited to attend. It is said that many companies in the industry have received the invitation. You Apple Will you send people to participate then?"

Ge Linyue was taken aback for a moment, then shook her head and said, "I don't know yet."

"Oh, that's a pity. We could have been together. I prefer occasions where there are many acquaintances. Goodbye."

"Goodbye."

The time card was just right, exactly two o'clock.

Ning Zi is actually very busy today. He intends to hurry up and go to Qiangdun Company to shoot targets at night after finishing what needs to be done. He has already agreed with Zhang Haifeng in advance and cannot miss the appointment.

……

In Shencheng, in the restaurant of Youwei Group headquarters.

Ge Dongshu, who has rushed back after the press conference, is fulfilling his previous promise, inviting all the voice assistant R&D engineers who have been suffering for a month to have a meal.

The specification of the meal was high.

But certainly worth it.

After all, the sales data in the background has already explained everything.

You must know that for the M10 this time, Youwei Group is really determined to turn unsuccessful into benevolence, with a global stock of 4000 million units.

Compared with the starting price of M104499, this stocking scale is enough to show confidence.Among them, there are as many as 500 million units in stock for domestic use, and they are all sold out now, and even the orders have covered the production capacity for the entire November.

The headquarters has just made a decision to temporarily redistribute the stock from other parts of Asia back to China.

In any case, the M10 hit the high end is considered a success.But the sales are so hot, the intelligent voice assistant is naturally indispensable.

"Everyone, let me offer you a toast first. After dinner today, everyone will go back and have a good rest. However, there is still a tough battle to be fought. The overseas press conference in half a month will be up to everyone."

When Ge Dongshu began to toast next to the table, all the technicians raised their glasses with dignity.

"Mr. Ge, don't worry, we will never lose the chain."
