Chapter 2421 Done

Looking at Jobs who was roaring again, what Feng Yiping wanted to know most at this moment was who happened to call him at this time.

He intuitively felt that there must be a force behind such a coincidence.

Fortunately, this problem is not difficult to deal with.

He shook his head helplessly, "Steve, why do I feel that there is no trust between us at all?"

"Why can't I recruit those who have worked at Apple, especially those who participated in the development of the iPhone?"

"After your polishing, they are undoubtedly very good designers and outstanding employees. If possible, why can't I let them work for me?"

"When you heard this news, did you think that I wanted them to design a smartphone similar to the iPhone for me?"

"Or, the people who report to you think I can develop smartphones?"

"Can't you make your own judgment?"

"Do you think I am a person who lacks projects, or do you think I will copy Apple's design?"

"Look at my business forms in the United States. Let alone plagiarism, have I followed suit?"

He sighed, "The world is so big and there are so many needs. Not everyone is as important to the smartphone market as you are."

After listening to Feng Yiping's words, Jobs, who was still aggressive just now, quickly calmed down.

Yes, in his eyes, Feng Yiping is also a proud guy who really disdains to follow suit and copy.

He believed that given the business environment in the United States, Feng Yiping would not be so shortsighted as to think that he could master the relevant technologies of the iPhone by gathering a group of his former employees.

Because that would be useless. With such a large investment in iPhone R&D, they naturally have the best patented design.

However, it is impossible for him to admit his mistakes.

After another silence, he asked, "What do you want them to do?"

"It will definitely not be a mobile phone," Feng Yiping said a little unhappily.

After a while, he heard no movement from Jobs, so he added, "We currently have many product R&D plans, and the more employees like those who have worked at Apple, the better."

Jobs looked out the window and nodded.

He knew Feng Yiping's Magic Workshop, so he did have a demand for high-level designers.

And for those employees who left Apple, joining Feng Yiping's company is also a good choice.

He also admitted that although the products of the Magic Workshop cannot be compared with the products he led the development of, they still have their own unique features.

The problem with Magic Workshop is that the scope of research and development is too divergent. If it can be as focused as Apple, focusing on a limited number of directions, it is possible to polish out some very classic products.

Neither of them mentioned any issues such as non-compete agreements. In the United States, copying other people's designs is not only not allowed by law, but also despised by everyone. However, not to mention recruiting those employees who have already left, even poaching is commonplace.

Not to mention those ordinary employees, even core executives can be poached.

As long as it is determined that it is the talent that you urgently need, non-compete agreements are not a problem. Either spend money or go to court. Every year, there are countless lawsuits between major companies because of poaching.

"We will comprehensively consider the adverse effects that may be caused by removing your apps, but at least, we will target and criticize Android and Rubin," Jobs stood up, "That's it,"

This time, no phone call came.

"The kitchen is ready, and Laurene is also in Huang's office. Aren't you going to have lunch here?"

Jobs was a little unhappy when he heard this, and felt that he had been taken advantage of in advance.

"Don't think too much. I originally prepared this as the last lunch between two people who are about to break up and become enemies. You can go, but let Laurene stay," Feng Yiping picked up his phone and walked outside, "I'll make a call,"

Watching him walk out, Jobs took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes.

He couldn't tell now whether he was so angry because of the impact that Android might bring to the iPhone, or because he felt betrayed.

But it doesn't really matter now. After the fierce debate just now, his mood has been much better.

Android? Come on!

He knew very well that his Apple was not that fragile. At least, a product developed by a former employee wanted to bring a big impact to Apple? Is it possible?

Outside the window, a voice came in, "...the direction needs to be adjusted. We have to deal with some people on Wall Street,"

"Fund management companies are the main force," Jobs interrupted.

Feng Yiping waved his hand with his back to him and said to the phone, "Did you hear that?"

Then the voice on the other end was intermittent, "...contact...get it done...Capitol Hill...White House Economic Advisory Committee..."

Obviously, he was preparing for a possible attack.

Jobs especially noticed that Feng Yiping used the word "get it done", and he immediately felt that Johnson and his team's optimism was very blind.

Based on his understanding of Feng Yiping, if Johnson and his team thought that Feng Yiping had so many investments in the United States but did not have a strong network of connections in the political world, and even the California senator might not support him, then they really should get to know Feng Yiping again.

Let’s say that 5 years ago, at the celebration after Amanda was born, he introduced the African-American Illinois state legislator to everyone. He was still unknown at the time, but he soon became a senator.

And now, he is likely to become the first African-American president in American history.

Feng Yiping introduced him at the time, but he only talked to him for a few words at a meeting of NAVTEQ, and felt that he would have a future.

Who has such vision?

So, how could he not have supporters in DC.

Feng Yiping pushed the door and walked in, "...confirm my meeting with Paulson as soon as possible,"

He frowned at the broken teacup on the ground, waved to the door, and a waiter came in immediately.

"Mr. Feng,"

Feng Yiping pointed over there and asked Jobs, "By the way, haven't you called Laurene and the others yet?"

Jobs took out his phone, he really forgot, Feng Yiping waved his hand, "Let me do it,"

"Jingping, we are ready here, tell the kitchen to serve the food, um, he is here," he heard the happy laughter over there.

Are they still worried that they and Jobs can't even solve such a problem?

After the waiter who had finished cleaning went out for a while, Jobs asked, "Why, you don't plan to ask all your allies for help?"

This is really a person who will die if he doesn't say something weird.

"This matter has nothing to do with Android. Besides, I can handle it," Feng Yiping picked up another bottle of mineral water.

The cold water flowed down his throat, and his originally irritable mood gradually calmed down.

He once again reviewed his arrangements in his mind to check if there were any omissions.

"Are you sure you can handle it?" Jobs asked.

"Sure," Feng Yiping replied absent-mindedly.

Jobs was thinking that after such a quarrel, Feng Yiping seemed to no longer respect him as before. Feng Yiping suddenly chuckled, "Haha, Steve, do you know?"

"The most fatal point that those termites on Wall Street think is me, in fact, there is a very easy solution,"

"Tell me,"

"Those people on Wall Street should be able to find out, and of course, the government should also be able to find out, that all my companies in the United States are invested by an investment company registered in the Virgin Islands,"

"I assume that they will eventually be able to control the owner of that company is me,"

Facing Jobs who was standing on his side at this time, he did not hide this fact.

"Then, solving this problem is actually very simple, I just need to change the owner of the company,"

"Change one?" Jobs originally thought it was funny.

That's not a question of changing people, that actually means handing over all the companies in hand to others, but soon, he understood what Feng Yiping meant, "You mean, Huang?"

"Yes, Huang, she is now an American citizen," Feng Yiping said.

Of course, this can only be a measure taken when it is absolutely necessary.

At the same time, there will naturally be other corresponding arrangements, such as changing the owner of Leading Capital, which is now the main body of his US business investment, to Huang Jingping, and then registering one or more parent companies above Leading Capital...

I believe that the company's large group of experts can come up with the best plan that will make the CIA feel headache when they want to investigate.

Jobs couldn't help laughing, "I want to see the expressions on those guys' faces at that time,"

Feng Yiping also laughed a few times, want to use this to deal with me? Cut!

"What about you, Steve, do you have any trouble?" He suddenly asked, "Have they threatened you because of your personal relationship with me and our fund?"

Jobs was not surprised at all at this time. He had guessed the previous things. What was there to be surprised about?

"For me, that's not a problem," he said.

No matter when, the senior's shelf still needs to be put on. You can solve such a problem, so why can't I deal with such a small trouble?

"Hi, both of you," Huang Jingping and Laurenna walked in arm in arm with a smile, their eyes kept looking at their faces and bodies, and around the room, looking very gossipy.

Feng Yiping and Jobs both stood up, "Please sit down,"

"The food will be served soon," Huang Jingping said, "I heard that you broke a cup just now?"

"My hand just slipped," Feng Yiping said with a smile.

He knew that Huang Jingping could not hide this matter.

"Then, have you handled it?" Laurena asked.

"Of course, it was nothing to begin with," Feng Yiping said.

"But why do I feel that you two didn't handle it well? Look, you don't even look at each other now," Laurena said.

"What's so good about it!" Feng Yiping and Jobs said almost at the same time.

Laurena and Huang Jingping looked at each other and shook their heads. Tsk, men!

What's the difference between the two of them and those quarreling children?
