Vol 6 Chapter 248: Persuade

Palo Alto, Waverly Street, Jobs parked his car on the leafy street, took out his cell phone, and walked toward home with a calm face.

Seeing that there was no signal from the iPhone, he cursed in a low voice, and the apples on the branches of the apple trees beside the house shook slightly.

"Steve," Laurenna greeted the door, watching Jobs irritably holding the phone to find a signal, knowing that he was not in a good mood.

At the door of the inventor of the dignified iphone, there is often no mobile phone signal. This is the easiest point to vent.

Sure enough, Steve Jobs began to complain, "Can you imagine it, in a place like us, there are so many people who are ignorant to the extreme distrust and fear of mobile base stations,"

"Yes, no one in the world can imagine," Laurenna echoed him.

There was a signal on the phone at this time, but Jobs didn't mean to make a call, he just wanted to curse a few words for that reason.

"This situation appeared after the iPhone was launched, so this is also a good thing, doesn't it, it shows that the popularity of the iPhone is getting higher and higher, right," Laurena tried to pick Jobs likes. .

Because some users in the town believe that mobile base stations may cause health risks, Palo Alto’s mobile base stations are not many. With the launch of iPhones, the number of mobile phones connected to the network is getting higher and higher. In some peak periods, at their doorsteps, it is indeed There will be situations where no signal is found.

Jobs's face finally eased a little, and he kissed Laurenna on the cheek with a touch of water, and hurriedly walked into his office at home.

…………

In the evening, when the children fell asleep, Laurenna came to Jobs' office, "Steve, Feng, haven't come back yet?"

When Jobs heard this, he was angry. Today, he asked someone to call again. In the end, he could only call Feng Yiping’s office. The answer there was, “Feng currently has an important schedule in India.”

Have an important itinerary in India? What are the important itineraries in a country where few people can afford Apple computers or iPhones?

What's more, don’t think we don’t know. It’s the Diwali festival in India. Whether it’s companies or government agencies, it’s already on holiday. What important itinerary is there?

In addition, whether it is Bangalore or Chennai, the heads of those high-tech companies have never heard of Feng Yiping arriving there. So, important itinerary?

"No, he was delaying time on purpose," Jobs said.

"Steve, I think your reaction was too intense," Laurenna said.

Jobs really didn't like to hear these words, "Intense? Do you know how much impact his Android system will have on us?"

Bringing such a large group of outstanding talents, working hard for so many years and overcoming so many hardships, finally led Apple, and in another field, it has achieved a rare strategic advantage and won a precious window of time. However, when Android was born, whether it was a strategic advantage or a time window, not to mention vanishing, at least, it had to be greatly reduced.

what does this mean?

This means that Apple will soon have rivals, and according to his arrangements, Apple will usher in not one or two rivals, but competition from all other well-known mobile phone companies except Nokia and BlackBerry.

According to everyone’s speculation, with the help of Android, those already strong mobile phone companies will be only a few months later than their 3g version of the iPhone, which is more mature in all aspects, by the second half of next year at the latest. That's it.

With the addition of iPhone pearls and jade in front, I believe that their product strength in launching products is bound to be considerable.

Jobs believes that without the help of Android, in 2009, in the smartphone market, in addition to iPhones, there will only be some so-called "smart phones" equipped with Symbian systems.

However, it is not Steve Jobs's arrogant, Symbian-equipped smartphone. What impact can it have on his iPhone?

It is Android, so that its own unique business will become numerous participants.

It is Android, and the iphone developed by myself with painstaking efforts will usher in many powerful competitors.

It's Android, which may make the huge gains they expected become nothing...

With Jobs' temperament, how can he not get angry?

"But Steve, he is Feng, think about it, in the past few years, how many valuable suggestions has Feng made for you and Apple?" Laurenna persuaded.

Feng Yiping was one of the few people she heard from Jobs who affirmed and praised more than criticized.

It is precisely because of the value that Feng Yiping brings to Apple that their family maintains good interaction with Feng Yiping's family, and they will stay with Feng Yiping in the hospital on the night Amanda was born and wait with him. With.

Besides, after being in contact with Feng Yiping, Laurenna really fell in love with Feng Yiping. The young man from China has their unique humility and gentleness, so it is very comfortable to deal with him, not at all. Others who have been invited by Jobs to be a guest at home.

Those guests with too strong personality often don't like the hostess.

Hearing this, Jobs stood up excitedly, and walked around in this home office with a simple furnishings of only a table and a chair, "It is precisely because he did such a thing, not other people, this It makes me more difficult to accept,"

"You know, over the years, many people at Apple and I have regarded him as our own. Even the iPhone is one of the first people to know the progress of the development."

Jobs did not go on.

Because the next words will make him appear weak.

Feng Yiping felt a little discouraged and powerless because of Jobs's reaction. Similarly, because of Feng Yiping, Jobs was even more angry at being betrayed by people close to him.

It's as if someone who you regard as a confidant stabbed a knife in the chest, the damage and blow that it brings is double, even, multiple.

"Steve," Laurenna took Jobs, let him sit down, and let him drink a few sips of water, "You know, I never interfered with your work, this time, the same is true."

"I just want you to think about how he has treated us from knowing Feng to now,"

"He respects us, he unreservedly treats us as his true friends, just say that the fund this time..."

"Don't tell me," Jobs interrupted her, "premeditated, everything he does is premeditated,"

Thinking of this, Jobs felt even more angry.

Recalling what Feng Yiping did, and then looking at his Android, he has done so much preparation around Android, and he feels like a fool.

This is especially unacceptable to him.

In this world, no one can do this to him. The former Bill Gates couldn't do it, and the current Feng Yiping can't do the same.

"Steve, you mean, everything Feng did before was to prevent him from attacking you and Apple when he launched Android?" Laurena still said calmly.

"You mean, before he met you for the first time, before you and Apple decided to develop an iPhone, he knew what you would do next?"

"This possibility really exists, so why doesn't he develop products similar to the iphone? In a few years, he will adopt the acquisition of Android?"

However, Jobs did not listen to any advice at this time. "At least since the acquisition of Android, he was premeditated."

"From all his recent actions, he is even more premeditated~www.wuxiaspot.com~ He is deliberately targeting me and Apple,"

"He will see the consequences of challenging us right away. All his businesses in the United States will be targeted by us..."

"Steve," Laurena grabbed Jobs again, "Even so, have you ever thought of a possibility, also as the founder and person in charge of a company, Feng often has to make some facts I don’t agree with it very much, but are decisions that are beneficial to the company?"

Laurena's words silenced Jobs for a while.

Frankly speaking, although he and Bill Gates look down on each other, to some extent, they are somewhat sympathetic to each other, but because of the relationship between the two companies, they finally had to move away.

"...I don't have any other requirements. I was thinking, can you stop targeting Feng and change someone else, for example, the one who developed Android, Rubin, right?"

Jobs became angry again, "I hate hearing this person's name,"

"That's a hateful guy who imitates me from hairstyle to eyes..."
