Chapter 1394 Stirring up the Storm

"Let's go, Steve, find a place to chat. Now that you have seen the latest CPU, just let your subordinates do the other things."

Jobs nodded. Although he wanted to know more, there was no doubt that certain communication with William White was more important.

Apple, like Legend, doesn't seem to be boasting very well, but insiders know that these two companies are standard non-mainstream companies. In terms of CPU architecture, everyone is playing with X86, which is considered an IBM PC. However, the powerPC, also produced by IBM, is in an extremely embarrassing situation.

William White didn't believe that IBM would be so stupid. It would give away good things to others, but keep a scam in its own hands.

"William, it seems that this business has failed. PowerPC has such great potential, so why did it take advantage of you?"

Seeing that this guy didn't smoke a cigar, William White didn't smoke either. It's not that much respect, at least it's not looking down.

"Don't be stupid, Steve, if this thing is in the hands of IBM, the guarantee will be ruined. I am also true about the entire industry chain, but look at it, it's just a specific user group.

And what about IBM? "

Although he didn't want to admit it, the fact was right in front of him, and it was hard for Jobs to say anything. The reason why X86 is developing rapidly is closely related to its open nature. If, if the price were more favorable, the ARM that caused Intel a headache later would not appear.

"Let's put it this way, Steve, my forte is graphics processing. So, in that niche, I have to be exclusive."

"You think too much. If nothing else, the processor and graphics processor are in your hands. Who will put all the chips in your hands."

"Soon no longer, White Systems will no longer be producing regular GPUs, we will be stripping out all manufacturing except for professional graphics processing cards.

As for the CPU, this approach is not ruled out in the future. Huh, I still don’t believe it. "

Jobs was shocked, even though the solution sounded crude. But, this is the real killer weapon.

No developer is willing to develop powerPC applications. On the one hand, the development tools are too expensive, and on the other hand, the user group is too small. For the same effort, X86 is much better.

But now, if White System was just a patent company, the situation would be completely different.

"Are you kidding? I just saw that the factory in Lion City is still expanding."

"Well, didn't I tell you that these are two companies. As long as the price is reasonable, what if I help Gordon Moore produce CPUs?

Um, well, maybe you need to ask the woman I have. Steve, this company is not controlled remotely by me in the name of a woman. In fact, I legally have no management rights. "

William White's statement did not surprise Jobs. In fact, some people have already made sarcastic remarks about his approach. You are an idiot with a lot of money. If one of them fails, it will be a loss of both people and money.

Well, these people are obviously a little shallow. William White didn't care about these wealth at all, or in other words, this was what he used to compensate others.

Jobs expressed his understanding of William White's explanation. Although I won’t make an immediate decision, there is no doubt that if this CPU can be developed in a patent-licensed manner, it will indeed have a chance to compete with Intel. As for that graphics processor, if William White hadn't been bullshitting, his opponents would have been miserable.

The method is not very clever, but it is insidious enough. In this way, the number of very large companies willing to cooperate with him will definitely increase to a great extent.

Everyone wants to develop the entire industry chain, but it is too difficult to implement it in practice. Texas Instruments has its own CPU and architecture, as do Motorola and IBM. It should be said that it may not be much worse than X86, but it is basically at a comparable level.

But without exception, these guys failed in the end. After all, these are the same as Wang An's computers back then. He likes to hold everything in his hands. It looks good and there won't be any constraints, but don't you have no helpers?

Looking around, I see enemies everywhere. If this is not possible, it would be totally unreasonable.

Due to the uneven distribution of spoils in the Iron Triangle of Intel, Microsoft, and IBM, it has become inevitable to have cracks.

It just so happened that William White seized this fleeting opportunity and planned to cut a piece of this big cake. The greatest irony is that these things were not part of William White's plans. As a time traveler, of course he doesn't want the world to change too much, so he can't use many things that are clearly foresighted.

It's a pity that he underestimated the greed of some people. And this world has long since become unrecognizable. Now that that was the case, he no longer had any scruples.

Damn it, if you don't take some measures, you will really embarrass the time travel seniors.

As for threats?

This doesn't exist. Look at Steve Jobs and Bill Gates. None of them look like the Great Magister.

"Steve, after this gaming computer is put on the shelves, the next thing to be developed is a graphics workstation, if you have any ideas.

I think it has to be faster. "

"Tsk" Jobs started to have a headache. It was obvious that their current focus was not on this at all. Moreover, they actually have a tacit understanding with Microsoft.

Breaking a verbal agreement was not a burden to Jobs at all. However, he is also powerless right now.

"I said, do you need to launch a surprise attack?

At the very least, there should be a CPU launch conference. I don’t believe you can mass-produce it so quickly. "

"Sorry, the computer you just saw was produced by Baodao. As for the CPU, it was mass-produced a week ago. We were a little slack during last year's Thanksgiving and Christmas seasons. But now, I have strengthened the logistics system.

Man, you don’t really think that I made such a big scene just to sell some Coke and mineral water, do you? "

Jobs was stunned. Okay, he understood everything now. Amazon sells books, but selling books is not the focus. This kind of shopping experience with a low starting point is just to attract users.

In the same way, someone who moved supermarkets to the Internet actually had the same idea. Only by accumulating a sufficient number of users can the potential be unleashed when needed.

Jobs finally couldn't sit still anymore. One thing that was foreseeable was that the emergence of this legendary computer was bound to disrupt the current PC landscape.

Game console?

He has long since abandoned his previous contempt. The game console is true, but aren't the people who have the highest demands on computers the game enthusiasts?

But, instead of making console games, you come to the PC market to make waves. This is really annoying.
