Chapter 2423: News You Don’t Want to Hear

It was rainy again in winter. On such days, Silicon Valley looked like 6pm at 9am.

Rubin rushed into the office in the rain without even an umbrella. "Wu,"

"The boss is waiting for you upstairs," Wu Qian pointed.

"Thank you," Rubin walked towards the elevator with some trepidation.

Yesterday's meeting made him very happy, because according to the boss's plan, this would be the most grand new product launch in Silicon Valley.

Not only him, but the entire Android team was also very excited.

Even Apple and Microsoft's launch conferences did not have so many heavyweight guests.

However, this early morning call made him feel a little trepidation.

His first reaction was that Feng Yiping definitely did not want to continue discussing the launch conference with him. What he wanted to discuss with him was probably not a good thing. He had a guess about what it was specifically, and it should still be related to Apple.

"Hi Rubin," Feng Yiping, who was standing by the window over there, waved to him from a distance when he saw him coming up.

"Feng,"

"Please sit down, the coffee is over there," Feng Yiping sat down next to him, "Looking at your expression, I think you probably guessed what I want to talk to you about, right?"

Sure enough!

"I think it should be related to Apple," Rubin said.

"Indeed, there were too many people yesterday, so I only gave a rough idea," seeing Rubin's look, he hurriedly said, "Don't overthink it, just like what I introduced yesterday, the overall situation is naturally good,"

Rubin nodded, "I understand,"

"It's just that, you know, Apple always has to make an appropriate response to Android,"

Rubin listened attentively.

"The rest is still uncertain at the moment. What is certain is that in addition to attacking Android, they may also point the finger at you,"

"I think you also understand what kind of person Jobs is. In the future, he will definitely criticize you or even attack you in front of the media or even at their press conferences,"

"You'd better be prepared for this,"

"At the same time, you should also be prepared for what he might say,"

"I am prepared," Rubin looked at Feng Yiping, "I won't take his attack seriously,"

"That's good," Feng Yiping patted him on the shoulder, "Don't care too much about these. After all, he is a senior, and a senior who is recognized to have a bad temper. Be more tolerant now. In the future, use your achievements to make him speechless,"

"No problem, we will definitely do it," Rubin said.

"Of course, if you are too depressed, tell me, you can go to the Cayman Islands for a few days and run on the beach you like,"

He now knows that Rubin, when he is not doing well at work, when he wants to find inspiration, or when he is depressed, he will go to the Cayman Islands and run on the beach he likes.

"Okay, that's it," Feng Yiping stood up.

So that's it? Rubin was overjoyed, "Thank you, Feng,"

"Don't be too happy too soon. If I'm not satisfied with the press conference at the end of the month, believe me, you won't have the opportunity to go to the Cayman Islands in the next year,"

"Definitely not, boss," Rubin said loudly.

Looking at Rubin running away excitedly, Feng Yiping breathed a sigh of relief. Android, this should be his last big project in the United States.

If it can be successfully born and have a good start, then in the United States, he will have less worries in the future.

His idea of ​​retiring at the age of 40 at the latest is also possible to become a reality.

But it seems that it is always like this, the last battle is particularly difficult to fight.

In the afternoon, at Mayer's home in the Four Seasons Hotel, Feng Yiping woke up from a nap and found that the people around him were gone.

He put on his pajamas and came to the living room, but didn't find anyone. Finally, he followed the smell to the kitchen.

"Hey, wake up!" Mayer, who was taking the baked cookies out of the oven, smiled.

Her good mood was due to Feng Yiping's excellent performance as always.

"So beautiful!" Feng Yiping said.

"Hehe, is that so? It can be even more beautiful!" Mayer, who was wearing silk pajamas, suddenly pulled open her pajamas and then closed them immediately.

"I'm talking about this," Feng Yiping walked over and bent down to look at the freshly baked cookies, "So beautiful! And it smells so good!"

"Really?" Mayer jumped on his back and rubbed her face on his nose, "Am I not beautiful, or am I not fragrant?"

Finally, Feng Yiping brought a plate of freshly baked cookies. Mayer, who refused to get off his back, held a bottle of wine in one hand and two glasses in the other. The two came to the window and sat down, drinking wine and looking at San Francisco shrouded in drizzle.

"With you here, I suddenly feel that this kind of weather is best for staying at home," Mayer stretched and lay down comfortably, and did not forget to pull Feng Yiping's hand into her pajamas.

"It's so comfortable!"

"You leave work a few hours early this afternoon, aren't you worried about work? Aren't you worried that the company will have a problem with you?" Feng Yiping asked.

"I have arranged all the work that should be done today, what is there to worry about?"

"As for the company's problem? How can there be a problem? Did I not do my job well, or have I not worked overtime enough?"

She opened her eyes and touched Feng Yiping's face with her hand, "But you seem to be particularly serious this time, it must be very hard,"

"It's a little troublesome this time, but it's actually okay," Feng Yiping also lay down next to her.

As a business leader, especially one like him who has new projects to arrange, how can it not be hard?

"Hey, have you thought about when you will leave Google and come to work here?"

"What? Do you want to spend more time with me?" Mayer turned over to Feng Yiping.

"Yes, I am so beautiful and smart, so of course you want to spend more time together, right?"

"Yes, I have been looking forward to this day coming soon,"

"Well, I will seriously consider it," Mayer pushed Feng Yiping's hair back and looked into his eyes, "before that, you have to hold on,"

So what's the problem? Feng Yiping immediately demonstrated with actions...

Seoul, South Korea, ushered in a gloomy and cold morning.

The atmosphere in Cui Zhicheng's office, the president of Samsung's mobile phone division, was very lively. Several employees who seemed to be of high rank were being scolded by President Cui and wanted to lower their heads to their crotches.

President Cui, who has already replied to Android and will attend the Silicon Valley press conference, is not without reason for being so angry on this cold morning.

What he heard last night almost made his lungs explode with anger.

It turned out that in 2004, Rubin took his team to Samsung in person to promote his company. However, he was proudly rejected by these smart guys in front of him.

"Who are you?" President Cui said something that was not his style to those people.

He was actually repeating these words. Among the people standing in front of him at this time, he was the one with the lowest head and a face that looked most like a monkey's butt.

At that time, facing Rubin and his team of only 8 members who flew to Seoul, after listening to Rubin introduce the features and functions of Datong Android, this is what this person said, "You and this so-called The team is planning to develop such a thing?”

President Cui said again, "Are you high on drugs?"

This is also a retelling.

At that time, the second sentence they rejected Rubin was, "You only have 6 people developing products, but you still talk about how successful your product will be. Are you high on drugs?"

It was an experience that Rubin didn't want to mention and would rather it never happened. Now it's an experience that President Cui would rather never hear about because it makes his heartache when he thinks about it, so he would rather it never happened.

He glanced at those people with some disgust, returned to his desk and sat down, "I never want to see these people again," he said to his secretary.

"Also, tell the HR department to put them on the blacklist. They should not have a place in any company in the group,"

Those few people were immediately crushed. Although it was only Samsung that made such a decision, their hope of finding a good job in South Korea can only be delusional.

But in fact, this still can't calm Cui Zhicheng's mood, that's Android!

It is already evening in New York. Today, the weather in New York is not bad. You can even see a ray of sunset on the horizon at this time, but Blackstone Schwarzman's mood is very gloomy.

He had just received the news, and Jobs had made it very clear that he would not be able to cooperate with their actions.
