Rebirth 1999: Opening the Age of Black Technology - Chapter 749
Remember [] for a second, update fast, no pop-ups!
Chen Xiao made a call to Jobs’ personal mobile phone.
The time is right now in the United States at night, and Jobs is sitting on the futon meditating, meditating.
Jobs was Buddhist.
Especially after he went to the intensive care center in Changzezhou to recuperate, he read a lot of Buddhist scriptures of the Xia Kingdom.
It was only then that he discovered that the Buddhist scriptures of the Xia Kingdom were the authentic Buddhist scriptures, which were completely different from the Buddhist scriptures that had been filtered and improved by the East.
The Central Plains Buddhism of the Xia State pays attention to the common return of all good things, which is more of a kind of spiritual and moral cultivation, while the Eastern focus is to chant Buddha.
Jobs has been learning Chinese since Xia Guo, and next to him is a Chinese and English version of the “Six Patriarchs Altar Sutra”.
Jobs saw Chen Xiao’s call, stopped meditating, and stood up to answer the phone.
Chen Xiao said with a smile on the phone, “How is your health, sir?”
Jobs stood up and took a sip of warm water, which was a habit developed in Xia Guo.
“I’m fine, I’m used to eating rough tea and rice in Changzezhou. Now that I come back to eat steak and pasta every day, I always feel a little uncomfortable.”
Jobs needed to condition his body before and after surgery.
Therefore, strictly follow the diet plan formulated by the intensive care center.
One of the most common diet packages is a variety of rice porridge and some small stir-fried vegetables.
This is a regular recipe for convalescents in Xia Guo.
In the medical industry in the United States, there is no such stress.
Chen Xiao said, “Since you miss Changzezhou’s food so much, are you interested in living in Xia for a while?”
Jobs suddenly had a hunch that Chen Xiao’s call this time must not only be concerned about his own body.
Jobs was very moved.
On the one hand, it has been several months since he completed the operation, and the smaller review can be done in the United States, but the drug supply of the symbiotic colony and the review of the colony density can only be done in Changtian Technology, so he must Go to Xiaguo.
Chen Xiao’s words were obviously something in his words, and it was probably inconvenient to say clearly on the phone.
Jobs readily agreed: “In three days, I’ll come to you with the best coffee in California.”
three days later.
Jobs flew to Nagasawa Island.
Since stepping down from the position of CEO of Apple, Jobs has been staying at home and rarely going out.
Therefore, this trip to Xia Guo did not make more people pay attention to it.
Even when Jobs left, no one at Apple knows.
After a 10+ hour trip.
Jobs arrived in Nagasawa.
This time, he not only brought Chen Xiao local specialty coffee from California, but also brought Chen Xiao a coffee machine.
The first thing I did when I arrived at Nagasawa Island was to go to the intensive care center to check on my body and supplement the visceral colonies with nutrient solution.
The next day Jobs and Chen Xiao met again in Changzezhou.
Jobs personally used a coffee machine to grind a cup of black coffee for Chen Xian.
“I know you like drinking tea. In fact, coffee and tea have the same function, which is to control caffeine for the human body.”
“This stuff produces dopamine and makes people happy!”
Jobs handed the ground black coffee to Chen Xiao and said, “Try it.”
Chen Xiao slowly tasted the black coffee without any sugar and milk.
For Chen Xiao, there is no taste that can appeal to his taste buds except bitterness.
This may be the difference between Eastern and Western cultures.
Chen Xiao and Jobs are also welcome.
He put the coffee on the table and said, “Maybe the little sister in my office likes it better. I personally don’t feel that way.”
Jobs didn’t care either.
In the process of communicating with Chen Xiao in the past few months, both of them are relatively frank and sincere.
It’s more like an old friend that I haven’t seen for a long time, what to say, rather than those old foxes and woeful snakes in the business field.
Jobs laughed when he saw Chen Xiao’s embarrassed look.
He joked: “I don’t know if the bacteria in my body are used to the taste of Xiaguo country. This time I came back and breathed the air of Changze Island, and I felt refreshed and very comfortable.”
The place where the two had coffee was Chen Xiao’s villa on Tianyue Island.
Outside the villa area is a large garden, and further ahead is the beach.
Suhang Bay in September is affected by tides, and the waves fluctuate greatly.
The two could hear the sound of the waves hitting the beach, which greatly relaxed Jobs’ mood and spirit at this moment.
Suddenly there was an idea in his mind.
If you settle down in this place for a long time and meditate with peace of mind, you may have a different understanding of life.
After the two chatted.
Speaking of business.
Jobs informed Chen Xiao about Cook’s visit to him.
Although Jobs left because of his long time at Apple, many of Apple’s team members are his old friends.
So he is very familiar with Apple’s style of doing things.
Jobs said: “Apple is able to achieve today’s success, it is because of Apple’s decisive style.”
“Thinking of a good idea, as long as the technical team feels that it can be implemented, the idea can be developed within half an hour.”
Chen Xiao nodded, fully agreeing with this truth.
For the entire mobile phone industry, Apple is a disruptor and a changer.
The most fundamental reason is that Apple’s execution ability is very strong, and it dares to innovate and change.
Jobs took a sip of coffee and said, “So I think Apple should stop production of the iPhone 5 immediately and make 4G phones immediately.”
Jobs said: “The cooperation between Changtian Technology and Nokia to simultaneously promote the construction of 4G networks in Asia and Europe has indeed made many mobile phone manufacturers around the world unable to respond for a while.”
“It also made consumers have a great interest in 4G mobile phones.”
“Such a measure is really unexpected and will bring iPhone 5 sales to a standstill.”
Jobs looked at Chen Xiao and said, “But consumers’ expectations and waiting period are time-limited. If Changtian Technology or Nokia does not launch a 4G mobile phone within this waiting period, or the performance of the 4G mobile phone is not satisfactory. .Then the mobile phone market will also be retaken by brands such as Apple and Samsung.”
When Jobs said this, he looked at Chen Xiao very seriously.
Jobs is no longer part of Apple.
He speaks more directly now.
Chen Xiao looked at Jobs with some playfulness.
Although Comrade Lao Qiao has no longer worked in the mobile phone industry, judging from what he just expressed, his attention and mental state have never left the mobile phone industry.
He has been following the development of the global mobile phone industry at home.
There is even some anger towards Apple, and its unfortunate mood.
Jobs has been waiting for Chen Xiao’s answer.
He wants to know when Changtian Technology or Nokia will launch their own 4G mobile phones?
4g mobile phone technology, the most important thing is 4g chip.
At present, companies such as Samsung and Qualcomm have the strength to carry 4g basebands on their chips.
As long as the network is rolled out, as soon as next year, these brands are likely to launch 4G mobile phones on a large scale.
Chen Xiao said, “I’m not in a hurry.”
“Now that we have acquired Nokia, we are simultaneously advancing the construction of 4g networks in Asia and Europe.”
“Then it must be impossible to hand over the 4G market created by Changtian Technology to others.”
When Jobs heard Chen Xiao’s words, he felt a little uncomfortable.
“What is Changtian Technology’s plan?”
Chen Xiao said: “Mr.’s inference is very correct. I will always think that Apple will immediately cut off the production of iPhone 5, and even make iPhone 5 one of the shortest-lived mobile phones in Apple’s history.”
“After cutting off the production of iPhone 5, Apple will immediately start the research and development, production and sales of its own 4G mobile phones.”
“And my guess is that the next-generation iPhone will definitely not be the iPhone 6, but may be a patched model of the iPhone 5 with a tail.”
“The cheap iphone5 patch is very likely to reassemble the unused hardware of the iphone5 and add a gimmick, or to change some appearances, or to make some small improvements in the chip, equipped with a chip that can use 4g network , sell it at a lower price.”
“And the more expensive iphone5 patch is likely to be Apple’s real 4G mobile phone,”
“Just because Apple wants to test the water, and the development and production time is too rushed, it is not enough for Apple to make major design adjustments to the iPhone, so he dare not call the iPhone 5 with the tail as the iPhone 6.”
After saying this, Chen Xiao kept smiling and took a sip of tea.
When Jobs heard Chen Xiao’s words, he was incomparably shocked and stunned.
He suddenly felt.
If Apple and Changtian Technology are rivals rather than partners, it really means that their life is too long.
Because Chen Xiao has a very thorough understanding of Apple’s layout for the next year, exactly the same as Jobs’ thinking.
With so much hardware already ordered for the iPhone 5, Apple has paid a lot of the cost.
If these hardwares are just wasted in vain, it is definitely not in the interests of capitalists.
So we will definitely use these hardware and add a 4g chip to make a new mobile phone.
And time is very tight, Apple has no time to design a new mobile phone, in a short period of time, Apple will definitely contact Samsung, find ways to make the configuration and appearance of the phone further, and launch a patched version of the iPhone 5.
Why not call it iphone6?
Because the mobile phone, whether it is a performance improvement or a change in appearance, is not enough to support it to become a new generation of iPhone mobile phones.
It can only be an enhancement patch for iphone5.
Jobs nodded with admiration and said: “Cook chose to give up the cooperation with Changtian Technology, which is Apple’s biggest loss.”
It was only at this time that Chen Xiao answered the question that Jobs had just raised.
“Changtian Technology does want to develop and sell its own smartphone.”
“Otherwise, companies such as apple and htc will not buy our hardware, and our opinions will only be digested by ourselves.”
Jobs laughed when he heard this.
This kind of feeling is like the landlord’s family raised a big fat pig, because it is too fat and can’t sell it, and it is ready to slaughter and eat it.
“The time for the release of the mobile phone has actually been set. When will Apple release the next-generation mobile phone that supports the 4G standard, when will Changtian Technology release our own mobile phone.”
When Jobs heard this, he was simply convinced.
He heard that Chen Xiao’s words had two meanings.
One is that Changtian Technology really wants to make its own mobile phone.
Another is that Changtian Technology is confident enough in its own mobile phone that it can definitely beat Apple.
Chen Xiao chose to release the mobile phone after the release of the new generation of the iPhone. The purpose of doing so was to compete with Apple at the same time, and he had enough confidence that his mobile phone performance and sales would definitely surpass Apple.
Jobs suddenly sweated profusely.
What kind of mobile phone will Changtian Technology develop?
Actually let Chen Xiao have such a determined attitude to compete with Apple.
The reason why Apple can be successful.
Not just because of the ultra-fast chip or the excellent design, but because of the excellent closed system.
Are there any of these Changtian technologies?
Changtian Technology seems to have none.
Just when Jobs was a little dazed.
Chen Xiao said to Jobs, “Since Apple doesn’t have a long memory after dying once, I will let her die twice.”
“Mr. Jobs, Bird Technology, a subsidiary of Changtian Technology, used to make mobile phones~www.mtlnovel.com~, but after the company released several feature phones, it fell into dormancy.”
“Now Changtian Technology is beneficial to let Bird and Nokia merge, restructure and change their name, and establish Changtian Technology’s own Hanhai mobile phone brand.”
“I wonder if Mr. intends to be the CEO of Hanhai Technology?”
Chen Xiao said to Jobs with a smile: “Mr. is already rich enough, so we give him the same treatment as Apple, and give him 1% of the shares of Yuedong Internet.”
“Of course, in return, the future cultivation of the symbiotic colony in Mr.’s body, as well as the health care of the body, will be fully responsible for the Changtian Technology Intensive Treatment Center.”
Jobs was a little excited, and a little nervous.
He knew that this time Chen Xiao asked himself to come to Changzezhou, and there must be something important to talk about.
But I didn’t expect that Chen Xiao would actually invite himself to be the CEO of the newly established mobile phone brand.
Jobs even wondered if Chen Xiao hoped that he could play some role in the design of the iPhone 4s and develop chips and operating systems for Changtian Technology’s smartphones.
Just when Jobs wanted to express that he did not understand technology and that the entire team was at Apple, Chen Xiao took out a box directly from the drawer.
He pushed the box in front of Steve Jobs, “This is the smartphone that Changtian Technology developed last year and completed and mass-produced this year.”
“We named it Hanhai 1, and it is ivast-1 in English. Don’t reject me, sir, look at the phone before making a decision.”
Jobs was excited.
Changtian Technology actually developed its own mobile phone last year, but it has been until now!
Did last year’s R&D fall behind this year?
Is it a 4g mobile phone last year?
Jobs took the phone.
