Chapter 4067: The Dark Jobs
Lin Feng couldn't understand why Jobs told him this.
"You must be wondering why I'm telling you this, because my company alone can't fool Samsung! It can't be fooled! I need your help!" Jobs spread his hands.
Lin Feng knew that he had guessed correctly what Jobs was going to do. He should be preparing to license the ‘Android system’ to Samsung, but he will not completely sell the ‘Android system’ to Samsung. In this way, no matter how Samsung develops, as long as it does not develop its own system, then one day, when 'Apple' stops upgrading 'Android', then Samsung will be completely doomed and will be like a rootless tree without any source of water.
After all, smartphones are also competing for systems. If your system is not powerful, then it will be useless no matter how awesome your hardware is. And if ‘Samsung’ relies on ‘Android’ to develop and ‘Apple’ strangles it to death, then ‘Samsung’ will be completely dumbfounded. All previous efforts will be in vain.
This move is indeed very vicious, and can be said to be the move that will cut off one's descendants. But why do you say that without yourself, you can't deceive Samsung? How do you say this?
"If my company controls 'Android' and only sells the right to use it, Samsung will definitely not agree. Because the copyright is in our hands, it will be controlled by others. It is impossible for Samsung to agree." Jobs said, "So, I hope there will be A third party develops 'Android' and then sells the rights to use it."
Lin Feng was stunned for a moment, and then he looked unhappy, "Jobs, you won't let me act as this third-party company. By then, I will be the one to bear the bad reputation. Do you think I will be so stupid?" "
Isn't it? If we really stop updating the 'Android system' then, we will find out that we are a third party. While I admire myself for being far-sighted and playing the Korean stick once. I'm afraid there are more shameless remarks criticizing myself. This way, I will become a villain again.
Lin Feng doesn't care if he is a bad person. Anyway, the relationship between myself and Korean Bangzi has long been bad. It doesn’t matter to me whether or not South Korea’s Samsung Bangzi is being cheated on. But why should I let myself take the blame for Apple?
Why!
When Jobs uttered seven words, Lin Feng completely lost his temper.
"Fifty percent!" Jobs said calmly.
Lin Feng immediately lost his temper. This 50% share is a huge piece of the market cake. This is enough to convince myself to bear this bad reputation. But this doesn’t feel good. It feels like this was all planned by Jobs from beginning to end. And this is calculated. Maybe it started when Jobs personally lent himself $10 billion. Because now Lin Feng always feels that he owes Steve Jobs a favor. Of course, in reality, I do owe Steve Jobs a favor.
Therefore, it is natural for Lin Feng to take the blame when it is profitable and not on the same page as the Korean stick.
"Mr. Lin, we have arranged everything. 'Android' has also been self-bought by its R&D founder Andy Robin, but we still have the right to redeem it. In other words, if anyone else wants When buying Android, we, Apple, have the right of first refusal." Jobs smiled, "That's why Samsung's Lee Jianxi came to negotiate with us. But the answer is naturally no. It is impossible to obtain the right to use 'Android', but of course, it can have the right to use 'Android' first."
Lin Feng's lips twitched. Isn't Steve Jobs a technology geek? When did he become so sinister? The front foot is calculated against Samsung, and the back foot is calculated against oneself. He quietly made a fortune behind his back. This is a bit too sinister. When did he become so evil?
Look at the smile on Steve Jobs's face. Lin Feng felt a chill. Feeling sick for Samsung.
"Jobs, I have a question, why did you insist on choosing Samsung? In fact, there are many companies to choose from, why Samsung?" Lin Feng said with a frown.
Even if you want to spur the arrival of the smart era in advance and overthrow Nokia, you can still choose Motorola, which ranks second, or Sony Ericsson, which ranks fourth. Why choose Samsung?
"It's very simple. Samsung has the greatest ambition, and they have strong execution capabilities. Of course, the most important thing is that you have a grudge against the Koreans, right? And Motorola, to be honest, is too old and they can't keep up with the times. As for Sony Ericsson, I'm not optimistic about this combination." Jobs shook his head.
Of course, there is another thing that Jobs did not mention. Japan is currently the second largest economy in the world, and Apple can sell well in it. As for Lin Feng's relationship with Japan, Lin Feng could not even sell a single machine in Japan. But if Sony Ericsson is involved in this matter, and if Apple is the culprit behind the scenes, the Japanese will probably not buy anymore, or even buy Apple products. This is a loss that Steve Jobs cannot bear. rise.
As for South Korea, to be honest, South Korea has always produced and sold its own products and developed national brands. Apple has not been selling well in South Korea, so losing a market does not matter. Jobs didn't care either.
Lin Feng nodded.
"Then there is another requirement, that is, I must have the right to make decisions. It's impossible, I am kept in the dark about what Android has done!" Lin Feng demanded the right. You must not let yourself be kept in the dark about this, and end up being tricked by Apple.
"Haha, don't worry. This 'Android' will be led by Andy Robin, and you will send technicians to develop it. Otherwise, 'Android' cannot be developed. So, all of this is up to you." Jobs shrugged, "On the contrary, we are completely out of the matter and will never participate in any decision, but we have absolute control."
Lin Feng curled his lips. Now, he has no doubts.
"Deal!" Lin Feng nodded.
"Haha, I hope we have a happy cooperation!" Jobs smiled brightly. Little did he know that in this, he still plotted against Lin Feng, because he wanted to use Lin Feng's technicians to develop 'Android', to test the level of Lin Feng's technicians, and to find out the weaknesses of 'Pangu'.
In Jobs' mind, 'Pangu' is a mobile phone system that is very likely to be comparable to ''. He must know himself and the enemy. And this is an opportunity to fully understand 'Pangu'.
"Then the first launch on April 28 and this bet will continue!" Lin Feng asked.
"Of course, our common goal is the entire mobile phone market. We want to control this market, and then we will compete with each other! In other words, we fight our own battles, and if there is an external enemy, we will unite to deal with it." Jobs said.
Lin Feng nodded. This kind of alliance is the most suitable state for both parties at present. As for why Jobs is so black-bellied, Lin Feng doesn't know. In memory, Jobs in that world should be a technology expert who is very obsessed with innovation. He has developed one product after another that changes the world. But he has never been so black-bellied in business methods. Of course, the self in that world is just a small shrimp working in a factory, and he is not qualified to intersect with such a person. I don't know whether the other party is black-bellied or not. Maybe it's hard to say. After all, in business, people who can make a company's market value the world's top can't be simple.
Then, under the personal escort of Jobs, Lin Feng and his party left the headquarters of Apple. Ellison didn't ask what Lin Feng and Jobs talked about privately. This is related to the confidentiality of both companies. No matter how good his relationship with Lin Feng is, he will not ask too much. As for Lin Chiling and the others, although they are Lin Feng's secretaries. But this does not mean that the secretary must know everything about the boss. They will not ask too much about things that are too confidential.
Afterwards, Lin Feng and his party left the United States and set off for Shanghai. Of course, the higher-ups asked Lin Feng to go to the imperial capital to explain, but before that, he had to go back to Shanghai. On the way back to Shanghai, Apple announced that Andy Robin spent $20,000 to redeem the "Android system" that had been hidden by Apple until now after receiving sponsorship from venture capitalists, and would develop the "Android system" on its own, and launch a smartphone system that is different from "Pangu" and "" for the upcoming era of mobile phone intelligence.
At the same time, Samsung Mobile invested $50,000 to obtain 2% of "Android" shares and sponsored Andy Robin's research and development. Samsung will launch the first Samsung smartphone based on the "Android system" in July this year.
Hearing this news, Lin Feng admired Jobs's black belly even more. If this goes on, Samsung really doesn't know how it died. Giving it this 2% stake, it seems that Samsung has a certain degree of control and can have a certain influence on the "Android system", and will no longer be excluded from this intelligent era due to the lack of intelligent systems. But in fact, if it really gets dark, Samsung will be finished.
Lin Feng shook his head. This Jobs is really amazing. I have to pay more attention to this sales war. If I really lose, it will really affect the company's stock price. And I lost last time, I must win this time.
On the other side, the "Apple" headquarters.
Jobs looked thoughtful. This game has been set, and it depends on the final result. With the advent of the era of mobile phone intelligence, under the trend of interests, technology will surpass the development of Moore's Law. At present, the scientific research capabilities of "Apple" are slightly lagging behind. He hopes to accelerate the research and development capabilities of "Apple" under the stimulation of the market.
Because he has no time! Jobs touched his upper abdomen, which was aching slightly, and looked worried. "Apple" is not strong enough now, especially when facing Lin Feng, the opponent, it is still a little weak. He needs to make Apple stronger!
