Chapter 2350 Timing Is Important

"In addition to its own shortcomings in functionality, it has a lot to do with the fact that it also produces mobile phones and is the leader in the mobile phone market,"

"Other mobile phone manufacturers know that if everyone installs the Symbian system, in the end, the mobile phone market may be dominated by Nokia," Feng Yiping looked at the table below and decided not to ask heuristic questions.

"It's very simple. If Microsoft was producing computers from the beginning, how many computer manufacturers do you think would use Microsoft systems as standard equipment?"

Rubin's eyes were a little dim. It turned out that Feng had already thought about the idea that he had been happy with all night, and it was very unreliable.

“I understand,” he said. “If we announce our own production of mobile phones at this time, it will definitely affect the number of installed Android systems.”

"Yes, it's still a question of who is more cost-effective. Maybe you don't understand it yet, but you should remember two points. Although the Android system is open source and free, the Android application market and related advertisements will not be the best choice in the future. As the number of users increases, it will bring us high revenue,"

"As for the Android system, we have at least done the most difficult work, right? The costs that should be paid have been paid. Now we are just waiting for mobile phone manufacturers to adopt our system and bring us output... "

"I understand, Feng," Rubin said immediately, "We can't create obstacles for Android, which seems to be sure to bring us stable income, so that all our previous investment will be in vain."

"Well," Feng Yiping stood up, "Maybe you don't fully understand what I mean,"

"Oh, you say," Rubin scratched his head, "I'm really not very good at business...hehe,"

"I know nothing about technology," Feng Yiping smiled, "Actually, you are right. The hardware market is indeed a very huge market. I can also tell you clearly that we will definitely make a difference in this area. , and we are already making relevant preparations,"

Rubin's eyes lit up, "Really?"

"Of course it's true, but mobile phones are not our priority," Feng Yiping raised his hand to stop Rubin who was about to speak. "Do you know why Steve Jobs always wears the same clothes?"

Why did this jump happen all of a sudden from not making a mobile phone to being tugged on Steve Jobs’ clothes?

Rubin subconsciously asked, "Why?"

As a Silicon Valley native, Steve Jobs naturally paid attention.

Since returning to Apple in 1998, at least his public attire has been very fixed. He wears a black turtleneck and blue jeans. The only thing that changes is the color of the sneakers on his feet.

Various parties have already interpreted this. The mainstream view is that he respects minimalism and does not want to waste time and energy on trivial matters such as wearing clothes.

But listening to the boss's words, it seems that there is something else hidden?

"After Steve Jobs returned to Apple, he felt that employees should have unified uniforms, so he collaborated with Issey Miyake to design such a set of clothes. However, after the clothes were distributed, others did not like them very much, or were very opposed to them,"

After finishing the salad and two slices of bread, the eldest lady of the Donald family, who poured herself coffee, couldn't help but stop when she heard Feng Yiping say this.

"It is said that there are more than 800 sets of clothes in that batch, and Jobs really liked it, so he has been looking like this for so many years,"

"I estimate that he will still look like this for many years to come,"

"Pfft," the eldest daughter of the Donald family couldn't help but laugh out loud. Saying this, it turns out that such a tough Steve Jobs sometimes felt helpless like this?

Seeing the looks of the two gentlemen over there, she quickly said, "I'm sorry, just talk."

Rubin glanced at the eldest daughter of the Donald family, and then looked at Feng Yiping, "So, what does the matter of Steve Jobs' clothes have to do with us not making mobile phones now?"

"So do you think if Steve Jobs now customized the same clothes for employees, would everyone accept it?" Feng Yiping asked.

"I think a lot of people are going to like it," Rubin said.

When Jobs's outfit became one of his symbols and Apple gained more and more people's love, many people, including some entrepreneurs, around the world, imitated Jobs's outfits. .

Or to put it another way, pay homage to Steve Jobs.

Many Apple employees would be happy to wear the same clothes as Steve Jobs.

"That's what I want to say, timing is very important," Feng Yiping sat down.

"Look, if Steve Jobs had not recommended such work clothes to employees first, but recommended such work clothes to employees now, the results would have been completely different, right?"

"I understand," Rubin said, "Our main task now is to prepare the Open Handset Alliance and fully promote our Android system."

"Yes," Feng Yiping nodded, "You should also think carefully about some of the issues mentioned before, but now put all these issues aside and find a place to relax for ten days."

"But the work after coming back is very heavy. Our Android will definitely have areas that need to be improved. I hope that everyone can compare the functions of our Android with the functions of iPhone\OS one by one. At least, we must be able to keep pace with it. ,"

"No problem..." Rubin stood up.

"But don't bring your iPhone when you go on vacation this time," Feng Yiping put his hand on his shoulder, "Just don't think about work at all,"

If they bring their iPhones, they will definitely swipe around and compare the differences and advantages and disadvantages of the two systems, which is actually still working.

"You have led everyone to develop Android, and leave the next thing to me," Feng Yiping sent him to the elevator, "Do you want to go to China? There are many Jiasheng hotels in many tourist destinations in China,"

"Or, Hawaii? In Hawaii, we also have a high-end resort with first-class scenery and first-class supporting facilities..."

"If you are interested, contact my assistant, they will arrange it for you,"

"Then, you go downstairs and let them introduce you, okay, have a good vacation and have fun!"

The eldest lady of the Donald family, who looked much more energetic, stood against the wall, "You are so meticulous to all the executives?"

"Please," Feng Yiping walked side by side with her towards the office, "mainly because they have been very hard for a long time in the past,"

"I have been very hard recently," the eldest lady of the Donald family said immediately.

"Well, first Milan, then Paris, watching one show after another is really hard,"

"Yes," the eldest daughter of the Donald family echoed, and then felt that this was wrong, "You are being sarcastic, right?"

Feng Yiping gave her a look that said you know.

"Okay, I admit that being able to participate in Milan and Paris Fashion Week, as well as the previous Victoria's Secret Show, will indeed make many people envious, but you know, those things that are attractive to us, once they become work, will always make people feel hard, right?" She sat down opposite Feng Yiping.

"That makes sense," Feng Yiping nodded.

The 2008 Spring and Summer Milan Fashion Week has been held for a few days. Next, at the beginning of next month, the 2008 Spring and Summer Paris Fashion Week will be held again, plus the Victoria's Secret Show held at the Kodak Theater in Hollywood this year. These three events, especially the first two, are events that many celebrities in the world want to go to. As a senior executive of the fashion department, the eldest daughter of the Donald family goes every time, but every time she has a mission, which does not sound easy.

"But can those celebrities who dress up to attend those events relax? How much effort do they have to put into their looks?"

The eldest daughter of the Donald family felt speechless and a little aggrieved. She was so caring to that guy with not much hair just now, but why didn't I feel any warmth when it came to me?

"Okay, let me take a look at the information you brought back first," Feng Yiping pressed the remote control, and suddenly, the big screen was full of long legs again.

The phone rang, "Yiping, Mr. Musk is online,"

"Okay, pick it up," Feng Yiping picked up the phone, but his eyes were fixed on the big screen.

Musk talked for a long time over there, and seeing that Feng Yiping didn't respond at all, "Feng, you didn't hear what I said at all, right,"

"Yes, not at all," Feng Yiping said smoothly.
