Chapter 2971 Meeting (Part 2)

The air was filled with some obvious sentimental atmosphere.

At this time, Jobs had understood what Feng Yiping meant. The reason why I promised you that I would not get involved in the production of smartphones was because I believed that with you, Apple's smartphones would always have a good development, and each new product would be a great improvement over the previous generation.

The problem is that I am not sure whether Apple can maintain this situation without you.

So, I cannot rule out getting involved in the production of smartphones in the future.

He sighed softly.

Feng Yiping's change on this issue was not only not a betrayal, but a great recognition of him.

But he quickly adjusted himself. Now was not the time to have such emotions.

"Feng, this is exactly what I am worried about. Our processor now uses the ARM architecture. If our memory also depends on your supply, and you also produce smartphones yourself..."

Feng Yiping interrupted him, "Samsung has been producing mobile phones, but you also rely on the memory chips they provide. Why..."

Jobs also interrupted him, "Samsung doesn't have you,"

Feng Yiping was silent for a while.

This also represents Jobs' great recognition of him.

Although he did not agree with all of Jobs' actions, the two of them used each other, targeted each other, and calculated each other...

But at the same time, they were really friends who appreciated each other regardless of age.

Looking at the state of Jobs in front of him, it was impossible not to feel sad.

He looked out the window again, "Steve, you can be completely assured of my character. Even if I also produce smartphones in the future, I will never take the opportunity to embarrass Apple in terms of supply,"

But he understood that the current problem was not mainly about Jobs, but about his successor.

"I believe Cook will soon understand this,"

The implication was that he would maintain a good relationship with Cook.

"At the same time, I promise you that after all our factories are put into production, I will definitely reflect the importance of Apple in the settlement price,"

At that time, because of the increase in scale, the cost will be relatively reduced, and there will be some room for price reduction - more importantly, by that time, the storage market must have entered a recession and a stage of losing money, and price reduction is a common phenomenon.

Jobs was still satisfied with Feng Yiping's statement.

Past interactions made him believe in Feng Yiping's character, and Feng Yiping's statement today was also very serious.

Jobs knew that this was because Feng Yiping probably knew that this should be the last time they would discuss these issues...so he hoped to solve more problems today.

"I will promote our cooperation in storage," he said.

Then, he asked in a somewhat unnatural whisper, "What do you think of Apple's future development?"

The reason why he behaved like this was because this question made him seem a little unconfident, unconfident in his own arrangements, and unconfident in Apple's future development.

"If there is a chance, I will continue to absorb Apple's stock," Feng Yiping said.

Jobs felt much more relaxed, which fully demonstrated that Feng Yiping was still optimistic about Apple's future development.

"Apple is a company with your strong imprint. Many of your outstanding abilities are deeply rooted in its genes. Such a company will not develop badly in the future."

"You know, I know Apple very well. I think that Apple is first-class in both technical and design team capabilities."

"I am also very familiar with Apple's management team. Like you, I think Cook will be a very outstanding professional manager."

He looked at Jobs, "This is not a polite remark or a compliment."

Jobs nodded, which shows that Feng Yiping agreed with his arrangement.

Although he did not need Feng Yiping's approval, at such a special moment, Feng Yiping's words still made him feel at ease.

"So Feng, what aspects do you think I should pay attention to or adjust?"

Back then, after Feng Yiping was hired as a special assistant, they had discussed similar issues, but when Feng Yiping gradually grew in Silicon Valley, the proud Jobs would certainly not discuss these issues with Feng Yiping.

So this was many years later, he once again openly asked Feng Yiping for his opinion on these issues.

At this moment, as long as it is beneficial to the development of Apple, he doesn't care about personal feelings at all.

Of course, as proud and tough as he is, even at this time, he will only ask questions in front of people like Feng Yiping who have a special relationship with him. If it were someone else, such as Bill Gates, he would definitely keep silent.

"Steve, you should know that I said a long time ago that I would retire at the age of 30, or at the latest at 35," Feng Yiping said.

"Now it seems that 30 is obviously impossible. After all, I am already 31," Feng Yiping wanted to laugh at this time, but he couldn't laugh.

"But at the age of 35, I will definitely retire, really,"

"I can see clearly that no matter who it is, no matter what kind of business he founded, sooner or later there will be a day to let go,"

"I still believe that your arrangements will be very thoughtful and meticulous, but no matter how thoughtful and meticulous, there will definitely be omissions. However, I think there is more than one way to keep a company growing at a high speed,"

"I believe that the future leaders of our company will find another way,"

It was really difficult to say these words, because he was reluctant to touch that issue.

"Feng, you don't have to be so careful to avoid it," Jobs laughed, "I know my body well."

However, he did not say anything about his physical condition.

Because this is currently highly confidential from Apple and is not allowed to be released to the outside world.

"Haha," he forced a smile again, "I originally thought..."

Why? Will it be more optimistic?

Feng Yiping believes that few people can be truly optimistic when they know their physical condition.

The atmosphere gradually became heavy again.

"During this period, I thought about a lot of things..."

Feng Yiping was listening carefully, but found that Jobs only said the beginning again.

Yes, a person who has been tough and proud all his life will not open his heart casually even at the end.

Feng Yiping had no choice but to find a way to lighten the atmosphere, "We took Amanda and the others out to sea in the morning. You haven't seen her for a while, right?"

A smile appeared on Jobs' face, "I saw, there are pictures of you today at Laurenna's place,"

"I can see that you have trained me well,"

Oh, it seems that Huang Jingping has maintained this relationship very well, or in other words, she is not good at showing off her baby on social networks, but she still can't help but show off her baby in her circle of friends.

"Then you are wrong. She is much more naughty now than before..."

Irving walked in, "Jobs, Feng, Page and Brin are almost here,"

"Oh, I'll pick him up," Feng Yiping stood up, "notify the cockpit to set sail on time,"

"Yes boss,"

Jobs said at this time, "Feng, wait a minute,"

Under Feng Yiping's gaze, he pondered for a while and finally asked the question, "What else do you think I can do for Laurenna?"

This is another topic that makes people feel uncomfortable.

After talking about the company and talking about family, it really looks more and more like... Sigh!

Feng Yiping gestured to Irving, sat down again, and said solemnly once again, "I can guarantee that as long as Laurenna is willing, the United Foundation will maintain the current share structure and will not change."

This promise made by Feng Yiping made Jobs very relieved.

In this way, not to mention other assets, his investment and equity in the United Fund will ensure that Laurenna and the children's living standards will not be lowered in the future.

The income of the United Fund made people familiar with this fund very jealous. Jobs knew that there were too many people who wanted to join the United Fund.

Including himself, he has received some questions. For example, another old friend of his, Ellison of Oracle, asked him this question several times.

"In addition, I have some other ideas that I am preparing to discuss tonight,"

Irving had already led Page and Brin in at this time, and they were calling from afar, "Steve..."
