Chapter 280 Chapter 279
"Boss, the third-generation iPhone is released, and the price is much higher."
"Well, have you changed the system?"
"Not much has changed."
"That means it has no characteristics? Since it has no characteristics, it is just average."
"Yeah, it's a bit too high to be too low. At this price, I might as well pay a little money to buy a Lisa."
William White could only shake his head and smile wryly. You know, in the original time and space, the three generations of Lisa and Apple rushed to the street together. It was already miserable and couldn't be more miserable.
Unexpectedly, with the help of William White, this guy would still go his own way, and he didn't know what was so special about this road to death, so why did he insist on it so much.
"Felson, I'm William White. In this way, you can empty out your Apple stock, and use the funds to buy Intel."
"Okay, boss, I'll deal with it right away."
William White has actually been reducing his holdings of Apple's stock, but this time, he simply cleared his position. From the looks of it, Master Qiao still had to be planted once, otherwise he wouldn't explode.
It’s actually quite funny to say that Apple’s most profitable product is actually the second generation of Apple. After so many changes, it’s actually not as popular as the second generation.
You know, Master Qiao planned to remove the second-generation machine from the shelves, and the result is self-evident, not to mention those institutions, even the company can't get it right.
"Markula, this second-generation machine, seriously affects our follow-up products. If the sale cannot be stopped, the third-generation machine and the Lisa project will be affected."
"Old Joe, don't be like this. You need to control your emotions. This resolution is also a helpless move. Shareholders need this sales performance. We cannot guarantee that the third-generation machine will replace the second-generation machine."
"Damn it, I shouldn't have listened to William White in the first place. That little change was unnecessary."
Seeing God Joe who started to bite people indiscriminately, Markkula was also very speechless. It was too much to say that William White's idea back then was worth a thousand dollars, but it was undeniable that it was worth a million dollars. It's fine if you're not grateful, but you still complain.
Markkula knew that White Systems had parted ways with them since they rejected the open system proposal. The current state is already due to the restraint of both parties.
Markkula also has to admit that IBM does have the possibility of surpassing them in an all-round way. In fact, without the Apple II, they would have dropped to third.
Now it's not an IBM, a group of guys under the banner of compatible machines are constantly attacking the city. If you discontinue your most popular product at this time, pigs will probably laugh.
I really don't understand, since the guy next to me became a billionaire, how could he become so indifferent?
Isn't your family just a down and out scholar? Why are you pretending to be Wenqing? You go to see William White, he is still the same as a few years ago, he is still a businessman who cares about every penny.
From this moment on, Apple has entered into an eventful season. However, Master Qiao is Apple's business card, one of their signs.
In other words, Master Qiao is really capable. After visiting Xerox, the graphics processing system has been spinning in his mind. In his opinion, these current computers are all rubbish, as long as he develops a graphics processing system, he will definitely sweep the world.
It has to be said that a great master is a great master, and his sensitivity to new technologies can be called terrifying. Xerox's graphics processing system has been working for many years, and no one cares too much.
This is what William White can't understand. Bell Labs and Xerox Labs are not isolated cases. Many things they research are awesome, but it's a pity that the inventors didn't get much benefit.
Even now, they are still like this, William White doesn't understand, why can't you go out and have a look? Needless to say, those adapter cards of William White are also making a lot of money, why can't you think about it.
Well, I can only say that William White is too superficial. The people who invented the mouse and the Internet all gave up these patents, just like Karl Benz gave up the automobile patents. What they thought was how to benefit all mankind.
Obviously, William White doesn't care whether all mankind is happy or not, what he considers is how to maximize the benefits. As for those great people, to be honest, William White is very admired. As for whether to study or not, that's all there is to it.
Holding this disobedient mouse in his hand, William White couldn't help but feel pain. The sensitivity of this thing is too ridiculous, how can it be unresponsive?
Looking at the latest Lisa computer on the table, the feeling of powerlessness surged immediately. Are you really targeting minicomputers?
As a representative of the counterculture, God Joe's mission is to tear up the monopoly of Big Blue, and the rules that IBM follows will be broken when he comes to him.
Yes, IBM deliberately delayed the PC with 32-bit processors.
As for the reasons, there are actually many reasons, such as the price, such as the actual needs of users, but when it comes to Master Qiao, the blue giant becomes very evil.
In fact, a 6700 is enough for a Lisa computer, and the price will not be too expensive, at least, it will not cost $10,000.
Looking at the nearly $10,000 computer on the table, William White completely gave up on Apple. It is estimated that it is still the same as in the previous life. The bitten apple will eventually become a poisonous apple. I believe that within a few years, he can easily buy this company.
Well, let Master Qiao come over to work at that time. If this guy is disobedient, buddies will deduct his salary.
William White didn't hold many stocks, and the market's reaction was very flat, without any big ups and downs. Of course, Master Qiao hated this bastard.
This paranoid guy only has simple right and wrong in his mind. William White's behavior, in his opinion, is the same as a traitor, and it is completely deliberate not to give him face.
Although William White hadn't thought about it that way, the arrogant Master Joe couldn't bear it. Ever since, the relationship between the two began to take a turn for the worse.
"Tom, don't worry about Old Joe. This is just a business. You can just announce it to the public. Due to the excessive consumption of the database, the company was forced to slow down the research and development progress. Don't worry about other doubts."
"Okay, boss, there's a Macintosh behind them, what about that?"
"Well, let's see what they mean. If you need help, we can support it. If you don't, then feel free."
William White knew that the Macintosh was an epoch-making product, but it was a pity that this thing was only a semi-finished product.
Whenever human beings in future generations use computers, they should actually thank God Qiao. Macintosh can be regarded as the grandfather of personal PCs. As for those 286s, there is really nothing to say.
But, can't you post it later?
This congenitally deficient guy is really a flash in the pan. In the end, the Lisa computer could only be changed.
The world's first real graphics operating system, such a milestone computer, has become useless garbage.
