Intelligent Industrial Empire - Chapter 1457
In the face of the emergence of a new generation of smart phones controlled by Yunshi holdings, the world’s major mobile phone manufacturers immediately howled.
All their companies are still developing towards color screen mobile phones, but the Chinese have given up the design and R & D of key mobile phones and put them on the touch-screen keyless mobile phones. If the high-end machines launched at the beginning left them a way to survive, but the $300 machines now let them find that they have no market share at all.
Everyone knows that old-fashioned mobile phones will not be eliminated in a short time.
However, with the launch of the new generation of mobile phones of Yunshi holdings, their old mobile phones must have a price reduction rate that exceeds their imagination.
They have a year, and a year later, Yunshi holdings will certainly launch new models.
They don’t know where the performance is going.
They don’t understand why Chinese companies can make such products. China’s technical strength has always been very poor!
But who can know that Yunfei started making this style of mobile phone many years ago? Chips are the same. High performance small microprocessor technology is not much more complex than computer processors. Yunshi Holdings has an electronic factory specializing in producing various computer chips for their company.
They just want to know the latest news.
It was a company whose restructuring of Chinese military industrial units finally fell into the hands of Yunfei.
According to the historical development trend, Apple should have risen rapidly after jobs’ return. However, cloud holdings seems to know their ideas. Whenever they have worked hard to make a new generation of products, before they have succeeded, this Chinese company has made products with similar performance and external control, Even applied for a patent earlier than them. For such a thing, all managers and shareholders of apple are very helpless.
After many investigations in the company, there are no commercial spies at all, even after all the Yellow employees in the company are dismissed.
It’s the same now.
Jobs worked hard, and Apple also worked hard to prepare a touch-screen mobile phone. As a result, when the research was about to be completed, the wheat mobile phone under cloud holdings actually launched their design scheme.
This is a brand-new shape design structure and operation structure. When asked by the patent office, the other party indeed registered the patented technology!
They were suddenly stupid.
Apple has been losing money for years. The computer has always been competing with Xingmeng computer and is ready to launch the X-box of the game console. As a result, Jiuxin era launched the handheld game console and is ready to launch the music player based on network download. As a result, the company immediately launched MP3.
This is the rhythm of killing them.
But they have no way.
So far, Apple’s market value has been less than $3 billion because of successive years of losses. If the news that the new project fails again is released, apple faces bankruptcy.
As a result, a group of Apple’s major shareholders and senior management were called together to discuss how to deal with the current difficulties of the company.
“We all know the company’s situation. Now is the time for our company to survive. No matter our all-in-one machine, our game console and mobile music player, they can’t be listed because their patents are registered by the Chinese people. Now, another project of ours has been launched by the Chinese first. Similarly, their patents have been registered. Now, there are three ways in front of us. First, cooperate with the Chinese people and buy patent licenses from them. In this way, the products we have developed in recent years can be introduced to the market and obtain part of the market share; Second, learn from the Chinese, directly ignore their patents and forcibly promote our products to the market. In this way, we will face lawsuits. At present, the Chinese international lawyer team is very idle; Third, continue to invest in developing new products and technologies. If the Chinese take another step ahead of us, our company will go bankrupt… “Jobs’s eyes are full of blood.
In the past few years back to apple, he hardly had a good sleep. Since 1997, when the Chinese took the lead in launching the star dream all-in-one machine before them, they began to lag behind step by step. Every design has racked his brains and painstaking efforts.
However, all these efforts were in vain. The only thing is that when the Chinese didn’t care much about the world market at the beginning, they occupied a large market share in the traditional markets such as the United States and Europe.
But finally, with the Chinese people’s increasing pace of expansion in the world, their company’s market share is shrinking. Several epoch-making new products have been patented by the Chinese people for two to three months. Even when they just put forward this design, they have been introduced to the market.
In this way, the phenomenon that their company has just turned losses into profits is gone forever.
The market value of tens of billions of dollars began to shrink.
If the Chinese use core components such as imported processors, they will have means to make the Chinese speechless. But the Chinese do not import any parts abroad at all. It seems that they have obtained the most advanced foreign technology and equipment, or obtained technology from aliens. Everything is produced by themselves.
It is impossible to bring down Chinese companies except from within them.
Now, China’s top management is increasing the protection of the company, and many red families who have ideas to start their company are suppressed when they just come up with ideas. The humiliation of female staff in Yunfei office, which was vigorously fried last year, was easily calmed down in the end.
This instead gave their company an advertisement worth tens of billions of dollars.
That’s what the world is reporting!
Now, jobs has no way to deal with the current dilemma of the company. The whole company relies on its old business – computer production to maintain its operation. Even orders from the U.S. government and military can’t stop their losses.
The U.S. government’s economy has been very poor since the 9.11 incident, and there is no sign of recovery at all. In the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, the U.S. military is in trouble and consumes a lot. The government has no excess funds to carry out economic stimulus plans at home.
After the 99 years of the Internet bubble burst, the US economy has not recovered, and has begun to encounter nuclear attacks on the mainland.
Apple can’t expect the government to rescue them now. Even loans have become a very unrealistic thing.
“Buy patented technology from the Chinese? It’s impossible. Not to mention how high the Chinese will shout out, where does our company get funds? ” Wozniak shook his head.
It’s impossible.
“Indeed, the current situation of the company makes it impossible for us to continue to inject capital into the company. According to the current situation, it is possible for the Chinese to ask for $10 billion… “Said a major shareholder of the company.
Who will inject capital into the company under the current situation?
“We just want to ask why our company is later than the Chinese every time, and they seem to come specifically for us. Mr. jobs, can you give us shareholders an explanation for this? ” A shareholder had an attack on the emaciated jobs.
When Apple was in trouble, they wanted jobs to come back and earn more money for them and buy next at a much higher price than the market price.
But now it seems that this is a huge failure.
“I can’t explain this. Why do Chinese people predict the development of our products? I said last time. I don’t know. Because even I don’t know what our company’s next research project and products are. ” Jobs said with a gloomy face.
These guys are like this.
If the company loses money, it always hopes to find someone to take responsibility, so that they can pass on the company’s debts and withdraw their capital.
However, now the company has suffered serious losses, and none of them can withdraw their capital.
“Or are you inspired by the Chinese people?” This was questioned.
This kind of thing can only be explained clearly in this way.
This is something that many shareholders have been doubting.
In five years, their confidence in jobs has been completely consumed.
“You talk like hell! Don’t go too far. It was because of you that he left the company. It was also because of you that he came back. I founded this company with him. At present, no one has thought of such a dilemma. Who knows if the Chinese have used any black magic? ” Wozniak heard that these bastards were getting too much. Jobs’s face turned purple because of anger. If it goes on like this, something must happen.
Immediately stood up.
“I invite you here today to discuss ways to solve things, not to blame who is responsible here. You are all people who like to plant spies everywhere. You want to send people to Chinese enterprises, or those people who buy off. What news did they send back to you? ” These things could not have been said in the open.
“Last time Jobs said that this technology is still very immature and needs to invest a lot of R & D funds. You want profits, but you are unwilling to invest. The whole project has invested a total of $60 million from the beginning to the present. If it is not for the drag of research funds, there is no result up to now?” Usually, Wozniak seldom speaks, but the attitude of these shareholders is really disgusting.
His words left everyone speechless.
For a big company like them, a brand-new and epoch-making project with an investment of only $60 million feels shabby.
But these are money, not paper.
Who doesn’t have pain when you pay outside?
“None of the three proposals put forward by Mr. President is possible. First, we can’t afford the cost of patent licensing. It can be seen from the technology purchased by Intel and AMD from them. Second, once our products are listed, the other party will definitely be lawsuits against us. Once this happens, we have been accused of Chinese mainland’s disrespect for intellectual property. It will become a joke. Chinese people will be more wilfully tortious. Meanwhile, our company will also face bankruptcy crisis. The third is basically impossible unless the government is willing to continue lending to us… “A woman in her forties stood up.
“What do you think, Olivia?” Wozniak sighed when he saw the vice president of the company speak and looked confident that he could solve their immediate difficulties.
When the company is in a dilemma, shareholders just want to recover their losses and obtain greater benefits from others, rather than how to solve the difficulties.
If the company didn’t have money now, everyone would withdraw their capital.
This is the sadness of companies like them.
“By replacing the patented technology of Yunshi holdings with equity, our company has what they want. At present, they are building world channels, and there is no shortage of our channels. At the same time, they can’t compare our production capacity and our brand value…” Olivia said the plan without any hesitation.
This is the conclusion she came to after thinking for a long time and consulting many people.
This is the only way to save the company.
The Chinese will never give up on such things.
Once this cooperation is really reached, the Chinese will easily access the markets in North America and Europe
“No! How can we hand over the company’s shares to the Chinese… “Upon hearing such a plan, many major shareholders immediately became boiling.
Such a thing is impossible.
“This is our only choice at present. We don’t have to spend money to save the company. At the same time, we can also get their technology from the Chinese… Otherwise, the only way out for our company is to apply for bankruptcy…” Olivia said with a sneer.
She is not a shareholder of the company, but she is seriously considering the future of the company.
These people who really own the company seem to have no feelings for the company at all.
Except the three shareholders who founded the company.
“According to your speculation, how many shares do the Chinese need to agree to this? They won’t let us take advantage of it, and they’ll definitely open their mouths when they get a chance. ” Wozniak frowned.
“At least 30% of the total share capital, or even 40% of them!” Everyone in the whole company was silent.
They can’t accept such a result.
