Rebirth 1999: Opening the Age of Black Technology

This condition of Chen Xiao made Jobs very embarrassed.

Among the pn mobile phones, Jobs valued the most. It is also believed that the most potential development is actually the application market.

If s is the soul of Apple's mobile phone, then Jobs' newly named ppsr is the most powerful ecological network of Apple's mobile phone.

Except for the apps that come with the iPhone, all apps can only be downloaded through pnsr.

This is the benefit of a closed system to cell phone operators.

Because all applications can only be downloaded through pnsr, Apple can master all the applications in the application market, and has exclusive management and monopoly rights.

This is similar to a boss monopolizing all the most prosperous commercial districts in the city. If you want to do business, eat and shop, you can only go to these commercial districts.

The boss can not only collect rent in the commercial street, but also collect protection fees.

Jobs actually has a clear plan for the application ecological chain of his mobile phone.

If the merchant of the application wants to make money, he will definitely try to add paid content or advertise.

Apple is not involved in these things, but as long as your app maker makes money, you must share some of the money to Apple.

If you don't split the money, sorry, Apple will kick you out of the mall, so users can't use your app.

That was Jobs' ambition.

However, at present, the base of Apple users is still relatively small, and there are not many applications in the App Store.

So all of this was just a design in Jobs' mind, and he didn't put it into practice right away.

However, Jobs has confidence in Apple's mobile phone. He firmly believes that pn will become the greatest mobile phone in the world, and has become the mobile phone with the largest number of users in the world.

At that time, it was too simple to make money through the app store.

In the eyes of Jobs, leeks are not only ordinary consumers but also most application developers.

What Jobs didn't expect was the question he had thought about and considered, and the pre-determined result was also predicted by Chen Xiao of Changtian Technology.

Chen Xiao predicted Jobs' prediction.

This feeling upset Jobs.

Because Steve Jobs always thought he was the smartest person in the world.

How could someone from the Xia country have such an opinion.

Jobs was very surprised at first, then he smiled relievedly and adjusted his mentality.

Just kidding, after all, he is an international bigwig, and he has never seen any scenes.

Jobs believes that the contract that Apple has issued to Changtian Technology this time is very large and has a considerable variety, which can definitely satisfy Changtian's taste.

Therefore, he believes that what Chen Xiao just said to join Changtian Technology's application mall in pn is just an act of extortion, a tactical blackmail, and not the ultimate goal of Changtian Technology.

Jobs said to Chen Xiao very relaxedly: "Mr. Chen, you should know that our pn mobile phone already has a unique application store, which is ppsr developed by ourselves."

"Whether it's the app store or other apps on Apple's mobile phones, what we pursue is uniqueness, not homogeneity."

Jobs still took a step back and said: "If there are some applications in Changtian Technology, I hope they can put them in our ecological chain. I personally support 100 of our application stores, and we can give the green light to Changtian Technology."

"But I think adding another app store on top of our ppsr will increase the burden on mobile phones and make some app resources not fully expressed."

Chen Xiao, you nodded too, feeling that Jobs was right.

Jobs thought that his words had convinced Chen Xiao, so he immediately said: "If Mr. Chen has no opinion, we will sign the relevant contract. Do you think this is okay?"

Who knew that Chen Xiao changed the subject and said: "Since Mr. has some different views on the cooperation opinions I just put forward, then we can put forward the second cooperation opinion here."

There is also the second kind of cooperation opinion. The smile that Jobs originally hung on his face condensed and became extremely embarrassing.

Chen Xiao said: "I personally agree with some of the views of Mr. just now. The applications on the mobile phone, especially the applications that come with the mobile phone, cannot be homogenized. This will affect some decisions of users and affect the experience of mobile phones."

"Since Apple is a closed system and all applications are downloaded from ppsr, then there will be another application store, which may cause application diversion and inconvenience to consumers."

"Especially when we don't have enough storage space at the moment, it will also take up some storage."

"So Changtian Technology decided to see if it can cooperate with your company. We hope that Apple can use ppsr as a professional and independent operating company and can be independent. At the same time, Changtian Technology hopes to hold more than 20 shares in it."

"Of course, the price is definitely easy to say. If Mr. willing, we can even make the latest concession on the price of the hardware."

After Chen Xiao said this, he looked at Jobs with a smile on his face.

He must have a plan in his heart.

Since Changtian Technology wants to go out and prepare for the Hanhai mobile phone release in the future, every step and strategy that Changning Technology has taken so far is like a wedge that must be firmly nailed into the system of Western technology. .

The purpose of this is to create a dynamic balance between Western technology and Changtian Technology, "you have me, I can do without you", so that in the future, when Hanhai Mobile dominates the entire mobile phone market, Westerners will feel afraid and dare not follow suit. to take any checks and balances.

When Chen Xiao made such a cooperation proposal, Jobs' team became restless and angry.

"What kind of agreement is this? It's completely vexatious."

"Let ppsr be independent and become a company, and Changtian Technology will account for more than 20%. What kind of sub-agreement is this?"

"Uncle Changtian Technology didn't have this item when he signed the cooperation agreement."

The Apple team is very excited.

There were even team members who communicated with Jobs in particularly fast-talking local slang, as well as French.

Chen Xiao's English is very good, but when the other party adds French and local slang to communicate, Chen Xiao still doesn't understand much.

But judging from the other party's expression, you don't need to listen to what they said to know what the other party meant. After all, it was to let Jobs immediately terminate the negotiation agreement with Changtian Technology.

After all, this requirement of Changtian Technology is too much.

Although there are not many applications of ppsr at present, the profit is not a lot.

But Jobs believed that in the future, this application market and the application system designed by Jobs himself would definitely bring huge profits to Apple.

Jobs was right in his predictions.

After more than a decade in the future, the total sales of Apple's App Store have reached hundreds of billions of meters.

Apple also pays developers hundreds of billions of meters.

Apple generally charges developers a commission of around 30, which is a very scary number.

You must know that this kind of commission is available every year, that is, relying on Apple's App Store, Apple will have tens of billions of pure profits.

How many companies in the world can make an annual profit of 40 billion meters?

This is only the profit of the App Store, without considering the profit of the Apple mobile phone itself and the profit of other derivative markets.

Such a big piece of fat, Jobs is absolutely impossible to let go.

Negotiation is about relaxation. You must be tough when you need to be tough, and you must compromise when you need to compromise, otherwise the opportunity will be fleeting.

Changtian Technology had already made an idea of ​​​​the application store, and Jobs felt that he had to refuse strongly.

Jobs said to Chen Xiao: "Chen is always embarrassed, ppsr is fundamentally related to Apple, and we will not compromise on this."

"Although we are very willing to cooperate with Changtian Technology and are very happy to purchase the relevant opinions of Changtian Technology, we have no way to make compromises in this regard."

This is the difference between Westerners negotiating and Xia people.

Xia Guoren politely refused the relevant request, and would first say a lot of nice things, and then use a but turning point.

But Westerners are different, not willing is not willing.

Jobs was indeed angry, but he was still arrogant.

In the entire East Asian country, no technology company dared to talk to itself like this, so Jobs was ready to get up and leave here.

Chen Xiao, however, has always kept his composure. He did not hurriedly dissuade Jobs, but gave his subordinates a wink.

The subordinate immediately took out a mobile phone box and handed it to Chen Xiao.

Chen Xiao said to Jobs with a smile: "Sir, negotiation is a matter of your own accord. If the conditions offered by both parties are not in the interests of the other party, the negotiation can be terminated at any time."

"Since the conditions I put forward are unacceptable to your company, it proves that we still have differences."

Chen Xiao handed the mobile phone box in his hand to Jobs and said, "When Mr. Zhou came to negotiate with our Wang Xiang, it was also because of some detailed issues that no final cooperation was reached."

"However, we still did our best to give some gifts as landlords."

"Today, we are still following the usual practice of Changtian Technology, which is to express the hospitality of the people of Xiaguo and give you a gift."

Jobs stood there for a while, but still caught the box that Chen Xiao handed over.

Jobs did not make the same mistake as Zhou Ming. He opened the phone box in front of everyone.

The box of the mobile phone is pure white without any logo, but the mobile phone inside the box is very familiar to Jobs.

This phone is the pn3s that is currently selling very well in the world.

What the **** is Chen Xiao doing? What does it mean to send back the pn3s produced by Apple to Jobs?

But when Jobs just got the phone in his hand, he felt that it was significantly different from the pn3s produced by Apple.

In terms of weight, the phone handed by Chen Xiao feels much lighter than the one produced by Apple itself.

At first glance, there is no change in appearance, but a closer look has changed a lot.

For example, the size of the camera is different. The camera of this phone is larger, including the module below the camera.

This proves that the sensor inside may be larger, and the imaging effect will be better.

Jobs suddenly had a very ominous feeling.

Is it possible that Changtian Technology has made a major transformation of the pn mobile phone and installed some hardware of Changtian Technology.

Jobs hurriedly clicked the switch.

Because of the design and production of the pn3s, Jobs was all too familiar with the pn3s phone, including the details of its appearance and the time it took to turn it on, as well as every application that comes with the phone.

But when Jobs clicked to turn on the phone, Chen Xiao sent the phone, and he found that the startup time of the phone was significantly faster than the pn3s produced by Apple, at least three seconds faster.

But don't underestimate these three seconds, the level of hardware technology behind these three seconds is completely different.

Then Jobs began to check the relevant situation of the mobile phone.

He guessed right, Changtian Technology replaced most of the hardware of this phone with Changtian Technology's own hardware.

The phone is powered by a 2400mAh battery, a 12MP Seagull camera, and 512MB of carbon storage and 64 MB of storage.

The smooth operation of the mobile phone and the fast response made Jobs stunned. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

Jobs took a photo with his mobile phone at random. The clarity of the photo is not comparable to the pn3s mobile phone currently on the market.

Jobs was shocked.

Influence 300

How terrible is Changtian Technology?

It's so scary that he has designed and produced the Apple mobile phone after Changtian Technology's hardware, and handed the sample to you for you to judge.

Jobs knew very well that if this phone were to go on sale, its performance would far exceed the pn4 phone that Apple is designing now.

Even in the next few years time is far ahead.

In front of this mobile phone, Nokia, Samsung Motorola and other mobile phone brands that are now hot on the market are garbage.

Although Apple is innovative and has a certain number of users in the market, it is still catching up.

Jobs intends to use 35 years to complete the pursuit of the global mobile phone market and become the most advanced and most popular mobile phone brand among consumers.

But if it is hardware with Changtian Technology, then this time may be shortened to 1 year or even half a year.

Chen Xiao looked at Jobs very seriously and said, "Sir, you can consider our cooperation. If Changtian Technology can take 50% of the shares of Apple App Market, we can guarantee that Changtian Technology will provide Apple with hardware in the next three years. , which is more advanced than the hardware provided to other tech companies.”

"If we have 30 shares, we can guarantee Apple's hardware lead for two years, and if we have 20 shares, then the time period is one year."

"Of course, if Mr. is still unwilling to cooperate, I believe that there are many mobile phone technology companies in the world who are willing to cooperate with us."

Jobs looked at Chen Xiao's smile and was horrified.
