Chapter 2418 Sudden Rise
Feng Yiping is certainly not stupid. In the past two days, he has thought carefully about the conversations he had with Jobs and his wife before he brought Jobs into the fund and before it officially started operations.
Because they had an obvious purpose, some of his original words, now that I think about it, are somewhat deliberate.
He didn't know whether Jobs and the others had discovered this, but before formally communicating with Jobs or quarreling, it would be a good idea to clearly state his attitude, "I have no intention of taking your investment as a hostage."
Isn't it possible that you might suspect that I am using this to suppress you? Well, I will voluntarily give up this possibility.
Such an attitude is open and aboveboard enough, and it will be a very good means of compensation.
After Laurenna left, he slowly enjoyed the pot of tea alone. By coincidence, as soon as he poured the last cup, he heard the door being pushed open heavily. He looked over and saw that Jobs, who had his head lowered, had just put down the cup. hand, followed by a little girl with a frightened expression.
She glanced at Jobs and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Feng..."
"It's okay, thank you,"
He understood very well that it was not her fault at all that someone broke in without notifying her or knocking on the door.
She can't stop Steve Jobs now.
He completely ignored Jobs's glare on his face, walked straight past him, sent the silent waiter out the door, and then closed the door, completely separating her from the storm that was about to break out in the room.
He could clearly feel that the person behind him was as cold as a glacier that existed in the Precambrian period, but it also contained huge energy, at least the energy of Hurricane Katrina two years ago.
It is also as sharp as those legendary immortal weapons, making people feel uncomfortable even when they are still far away.
"No matter what, she is still a girl, and she is still a girl who may like apples very much," Feng Yiping turned around and said slowly.
"This is another one of your tricks, isn't it?" Jobs put his hands on his hips and looked at Feng Yiping coldly, his voice bone-chilling.
"Propose that we withdraw our investment to show that you had no other intentions at all?"
It looked like Laurenna had told him about it.
Lorena, you look really nervous.
He also knew that if he could give up, neither Jobs nor Lorena would give up.
It seems that as long as you persist for a few more months, or at most a year, you can make two billion, three billion, or more billions of dollars in revenue, let it go?
Are you kidding me?
"We don't even need to say hello when we meet, right? Are you going to stand like this, or sit down?" Feng Yiping sat down and picked up the teacup, "Sorry, this is the last cup,"
Jobs ignored his words and banged his fist on the table excitedly, "Your proposal just shows that your original motives were impure, doesn't it?"
Feng Yiping looked at his fist for a long time, and then said, "This table matches this caisson and is a special custom-made one."
At this time, the focus of your concern is still this table? Such a nonchalant attitude completely angered Jobs, "You planned all of this from the beginning, right?"
"You had planned this, right?"
He bent down and knocked on the table a few more times, then walked up and down in front of Feng Yiping with his hands on his hips, the stubble on his chin standing up one by one.
It looked like the scene in that movie where King Kong angrily beats his chest.
"I think I was wrong, I really was wrong," Feng Yiping stood up, "I should have approached Bill Gates at the beginning,"
"I think he would welcome such a 'premeditation' from me with both hands."
Jobs was stunned for a moment, and then exploded again. He and Bill Gates had a close relationship, and any time he mentioned that he was not as good as Bill Gates, it would invariably arouse his anger, " This is betrayal!" The table was knocked loudly by him again, "This is premeditated betrayal!"
"I betrayed! I had a premeditated plan! From the very beginning, my acceptance of your proposal to serve as a special adviser was the beginning of my premeditation and the beginning of my betrayal,"
Feng Yiping stood up, also with his hands on his waist, and faced Jobs, "Proposing that Apple start iTunes is premeditated and betrayal."
"Advising Macintosh is premeditated and betrayal,"
"For the iPod..."
"For iPhone..."
"... Inviting you to join this fund is premeditated and for betrayal!"
"Even all the contacts I have with you are all premeditated and for the purpose of betrayal,"
He picked up the teacup and smashed it to the ground with a clang.
Seeing the usually gentle Feng Yiping suddenly getting angry, seeing him using rare swear words, seeing him throwing the glass in frustration, seeing him stuttering for a while, Jobs was stunned.
His eyes were slightly moved, but immediately returned to their cold expression.
"It's just," Feng Yiping looked directly at him, "Who do you think you are?"
"Do you think you deserve this?"
Jobs was suddenly suffocated, and his momentum suddenly dropped a bit.
Yes, who in this world is worth this young man in front of me, spending so much effort?
"You don't think you are God and I am Judas?"
Suddenly, Jobs' chest rose and fell sharply. He looked at Feng Yiping, panting heavily. He realized that he really needed to improve his ability to curse.
He pointed at Feng Yiping, "You... As my special consultant, as a part-time senior Apple executive, shouldn't you have the most basic professional ethics? Shouldn't you be loyal?"
He wanted to say that he always regarded Feng Yiping as a rare friend in his heart, so loyalty to friends, isn't that a basic requirement?
But at this time, of course he wouldn't mention friends or anything, that made him feel weak.
"Why do you ask others to be loyal to you? Have you done it yourself?" Feng Yiping asked back immediately. He seized the opportunity of Jobs's restraint and quickly took the initiative.
"If we talk about betrayal, aren't you more thorough?"
"You are fully aware of my intentions and arrangements in content and online video,"
"Don't say you don't know. After I acquired Netflix and launched YouTube, who wouldn't know?"
"You know better than anyone how many years I have been planning for the content industry in advance?"
"But what about you? How did you do it?"
"Apple has also entered the field of online video, and it is still based on the iTunes platform that you and I created together,"
"Isn't this betrayal?" He also slammed his fist on the table heavily.
Jobs, who was originally accumulating momentum and strength, was stunned again. What Feng Yiping said really made him speechless.
In any case, Feng Yiping's Android has not yet been launched, that is, at least he has not betrayed Apple and him.
And he did introduce video content on the iTunes platform, and it looks very good now.
Disney, which joined first, has successfully sold a large number of their movies and TV series through iTunes.
After hearing what Feng Yiping said, thinking about Feng Yiping's original suggestion, and Feng Yiping's handling of the group of musicians who came to him aggressively... He also felt that it really seemed like a betrayal.
However, he immediately became tough again, "That was a normal business decision, that was my responsibility, and I didn't need to ask for your consent,"
Feng Yiping spoke almost at the same time as him, because Jobs was also talking, so he sped up his speech, "But did I say anything? Did I say it? I didn't say a word to you, did I?"
"But do you say I'm angry? Of course I'm angry, but so what, I won't blame you at all, I won't say you are a premeditated betrayal,"
"Yes," you are right, "I think so too, because we are in the business world, and in the business world, how can we avoid competition?"
"So, let's talk about Android, which I haven't released yet, why did I acquire Android?"
"I have explained this to more than one person, I just think that handheld computers have developed to so many generations, and according to Moore's Law, there may be similar products that are smaller and more powerful in the future,"
"It's not that I haven't thought about it, if the products on the market are difficult to buy, Satisfied, my company can consider developing one, but I didn't expect that you had already started developing the iPhone at that time,"
"You don't think that I acquired Android because I knew your R&D plan,"
"I admit that after the release of the iPhone, I knew where the largest market for Android was, and your iPhone also made me give up the idea of developing similar products myself,"
"I was actually very grateful that you made Android useful so quickly, so I also felt that acquiring Android was a very good decision at the time, because I always regarded you as my best friend,"
"I believe that for Apple, which hopes to make great achievements in the field of smartphones, such a product in my hands will be more beneficial to Apple than in the hands of other companies, such as Samsung or Motorola,"
"Beneficial to Apple? Friends? Haha," Jobs laughed with his head raised, his laughter full of anger.
"Soon after the iPhone was launched, you spent so much time, almost running around the world, uniting so many companies related to the mobile phone industry, and uniting almost all of our competitors in the mobile phone field to create an open mobile phone alliance,"
"Who are you targeting?" He slapped the table again.
"Is this good for Apple? Is this a friend? Huh?"
He said several obscene words in succession, "It should be when I kindly informed you and thought about putting Facebook on the iPhone, letting you know in advance that Apple had such a plan, that you had this idea and accelerated your pace, right?"
He roared, "Isn't this betrayal? Isn't this a premeditated betrayal?"
As he roared, a few birds beside the small lake not far from the window flew up in panic, cawing...
