Chapter 2307 Planning
For many people, the mornings when Feng Yiping is here are joyful, because they can gather at Feng Yiping's house to eat breakfast like a big family, just like now.
Of course, the evening is also a good time, but it is difficult for most people to gather at night.
Feng Yiping usually does not have social events now, but many of them cannot avoid it for the time being.
"This is really good," Xiang Xiaofang took two bites of bread and picked up the mobile phone on the table.
At this time, everyone has at least two mobile phones on the table, one is the original one and the other is the new iPhone.
The mobile phone that can make girls like Xiang Xiaofang who have never cared much about digital technology so fond of it is naturally the new iPhone.
From this perspective, this product that Jobs has been working on for several years and invested heavily in is undoubtedly very successful.
Whether you know it or not, whether you are a man or a woman, when you see this mobile phone, your first reaction is to take it into your pocket - mainly because other mobile phones on the market are far behind the iPhone.
Jobs's self-question and self-answer at the press conference, "If we want to put a product in our trouser pockets, what should it be?" "Yes, it is this!" Now it has been well confirmed that there are indeed a lot of people who hope to put an iPhone in their trouser pockets.
I don't know if it is because there is still no agreement with the two major operators. The first generation of iPhone is still not on the market in China. For this reason, many people in China have spent tens of thousands of yuan to buy it in Hong Kong.
However, for Feng Yiping, this is naturally not a problem.
From his personal point of view, it is not difficult to get it before it is officially launched, but in order not to cause trouble to others and some things that may happen next, he still waited until it was officially launched to get this hardware that he repeatedly told everyone that he valued very much.
Lao Ma took a bite of the bun and couldn't help picking up the iPhone.
Unlike Xiang Xiaofang and others, he now truly sees the trend that Feng Yiping said, especially with the popularization of 3G and 4G communication technologies, smart phones like iPhone will indeed profoundly change many industries.
For him, the most important thing to pay attention to is that more users will browse the two e-commerce platforms and shop through such smartphones instead of computers.
This is not a simple matter of transferring from computers to mobile phones. As Feng Yiping said, by then, it can indeed be called the era of mobile Internet.
He now has a more intuitive understanding of what Feng Yiping said in Wuli'ao at the beginning of the year.
In order to be ahead in that era, e-commerce platforms must indeed make many changes accordingly.
But it is not only that, because as it was said at the time, "the gap in the door is getting bigger and bigger, the boundaries are getting more and more blurred, and the real opponents may be outside the industry."
Therefore, if you want to be ahead at that time, in addition to consolidating your own foundation and improving user satisfaction, that is, increasing user stickiness, you must be ready to deal with challenges from all sides at any time, and you must do everything possible to win these challenges...
The pressure is so great!
However, looking at Feng Yiping, he has a lot more confidence.
He believes that many people now must be full of doubts.
Apple's consistent nature is to engage in a closed set. For example, their computers are still incompatible with other computers installed with Microsoft systems.
Therefore, many people can be sure that Apple will definitely not let other friendly companies share its operating system. Now it seems that the Symbian smartphone system that Nokia has invested heavily in developing is now ready to be thrown into the trash. Then, the problem comes.
If other mobile phone manufacturers want to follow up and produce such smartphones, what system should they use?
Rely on Microsoft?
That is obviously not possible in a short period of time.
But if only Apple produces such smartphones, such smartphones will obviously not become mainstream due to production capacity.
So when will other companies follow up and produce such phones? This must be a question that many people are considering at this time.
He believes that this will also be a headache for many mobile phone manufacturers at this time.
With Apple as a pioneer, it is not particularly difficult to straighten out the supply chain now, but the operating system is difficult.
And this operating system, haha, depends on Rubin.
Judging from Rubin’s speech at the meeting at the beginning of the year, the Android system should be developed soon.
Therefore, Lao Ma now admires Feng Yiping’s vision from the bottom of his heart.
So with him, Lao Ma really feels at ease.
"Apple's effectiveness in implementing confidentiality policies is indeed worth learning from," Feng Yiping said, holding an iPhone.
The results of Jobs' strict confidentiality were obviously very good, which at least bought them time to independently launch two generations of products.
With this time, Apple has established its dominant position in the field of smartphones in the minds of the majority of users.
It can be said that the high-end image of Apple mobile phones and the fact that Apple once captured more than 90% of the profits in the smartphone field are largely related to their independent launch of two generations of iPhones before all smartphone manufacturers.
Pan Shimin, who came once and immediately liked the breakfast atmosphere here, immediately said, "I will reorganize our confidentiality policy immediately."
The π department can currently be said to be the department under Jiaqiang that has the most concentrated projects that require confidentiality.
Jin Ling was worried about another issue at this time, "You recruit people who have resigned from Apple like this. Aren't you afraid that this will intensify the conflicts between you?"
Yes, including Joshua who was approached by Robinson, as well as other people who have resigned from Apple during this period, there are people who are recruiting them, and it is naturally Feng Yiping's handiwork.
"As long as Android is released, no matter what, we will inevitably face fierce conflicts, so even if this incident is added, it is not a big deal," Feng Yiping said, biting several mustards with a loud sound.
Fang Yingzhi felt a little confused when she listened to their words.
But that wasn't the only thing she didn't understand.
She looked at Feng Yiping and Jin Ling with some doubts. Although there was no basis for it, she always felt that the relationship between Feng Yiping and Jin Ling was somewhat different from before in the past two days.
But when she was asked to specify the differences, she couldn't tell. It was more of a feeling, and she firmly believed in this feeling.
What happened between them?
"Besides, these people leaving Apple at this time are indeed rare talents. I really don't want to miss them like this,"
These people were originally very good, and then they were trained by Jobs and participated in the research and development of the iPhone. They are indeed talents that are hard to find even with a lantern.
"If you recruit them covertly like this, you won't worry about missing them?" Jin Ling said.
Obviously, if Feng Yiping's brand name is directly displayed, it will obviously be more convincing when recruiting those people.
"Haha," Feng Yiping smiled, "Everything..."
Immediately, although they didn’t know what they were talking about specifically, everyone at the table responded, “They all have two sides,” - this is really Boss Feng’s most common mantra.
"It seems that everyone knows me very well, and there is no way I can help it. I am such an outstanding and eye-catching person,"
His narcissism caused everyone to laugh again.
Lao Ma, who was drinking milk and almost choked, wiped his mouth in embarrassment and said to himself that reporters should really be allowed to let those who worship Feng Yiping as an idol see this side of him.
But, strictly speaking, what he said was actually not an exaggeration.
But every time he said such words with such movements and expressions, Lao Ma still couldn't control himself and just wanted to laugh.
Jin Ling also smiled helplessly.
Although I am familiar with his style, I still stick to his methods and there is really nothing I can do about it.
"Specifically, what are the two sides of this matter?" she asked.
"Look," Feng Yiping put down his chopsticks, "whether in terms of ability or experience, these people who have resigned from Apple are indeed rare talents. This is their advantage."
"But for some people, such an advantage is not a disadvantage?" he said.
Jin Ling looked at the people around her. To be honest, she really couldn't understand what Feng Yiping said.
The other people looked the same as her, except Lao Ma, who looked thoughtful.
“We all know that one of Apple’s most prominent labels is its pursuit of perfection,” Feng Yiping said. “Therefore, from an investor’s perspective, if a company gathers a large group of former Apple employees, it has to I’m worried that these guys, like Apple, will polish everything to perfection before launching it into the market.”
When he said this, many people understood that this approach was at least not in line with the practices of current Internet companies.
The usual approach of Internet companies is to first release a new product, see how users respond, and then make improvements based on a wide range of real user behaviors.
"How much will this cost me? How much time will this cost me?"
"So, not all investors will be like me and welcome these former Apple people without reservation,"
This is why Feng Yiping is not too nervous.
Like all successful companies, Apple has cultivated many outstanding talents for the industries it operates in. However, after those outstanding talents leave Apple, they may not be able to find their own use.
Therefore, many people choose to start their own business after leaving Apple, which is actually a last resort.
There is no way, there are really not many companies that can fully accept their style of doing things.
"If you do this, can I make another interpretation?" Jin Ling said again, "Gathering these people together can be considered a deterrent to Apple?"
Many of these people have participated in the research and development of the iPhone and other projects. As long as the people with this team are willing, they can completely copy Apple's current products, including the iPhone.
Although there will be patents and other legal issues...as long as there is a problem, there will always be a way to circumvent it. For Apple, this is naturally not a good thing.
Feng Yiping looked surprised, "I have never considered this aspect before. This is a good angle!"
Jin Ling rolled her eyes at him, "It's weird for me to believe you!"
