Text Chapter 757: Apple Company Meeting
Jessie Zhou's document said that most of the problems were on the mobile phone, and the Apple mobile phone reached a peak in the fourth generation. Whether it is sales or software and hardware, it has reached a perfect level. Before Zhou Jiexi was reborn, many people liked to use the fourth generation and did not want to replace it. This is the classic charm, and it cannot replace its position in people's hearts in a short time.
Now that Apple is still in the second generation, the questions raised by Zhou Jiexi are very good, and they directly hit a lot of obvious facts. Then there is the proposal about the tablet, which was released in March, and it is precisely because of this that Apple's stock price has obviously grown a lot.
As for the sales situation in the United States, you can know that it is indeed very good after looking at the sales report. Other countries and regions are also selling more and more popular, compared to the above text. The emergence of Ipad seems to be more sci-fi and in line with people's fantasy, the kind of touch screen and experience that is much larger than that of mobile phones.
The tablet is also the iPad. This replacement of the laptop computer has been established by Apple ten years ago, just because of many problems. Due to screen, signal, battery, thickness and weight, etc., Apple’s tablet was abandoned in 2008. Later, netbooks appeared and encroached on the notebook market. This is why we have to start the tablet project from scratch. After the release of the first generation, Jessie Zhou has already known about the history.
He didn't use a tablet, and the current tablet is a bit bulky for him. He raised some problems and areas for improvement in the proposal, and suggested that a smaller tablet could actually be considered. It is lighter and easier to hold in the hand. He thinks that the later mini did a good job, but he still thinks the mini is much more comfortable when holding the iPad.
Zhou Jiexi's efforts have been affirmed by the board of directors. At least he has really learned about Apple seriously. This is why the people in the board of directors are more fond of Zhou Jiexi. Jobs was no exception. Many of Zhou Jiexi's proposals were nonsense, but there were also some refreshing proposals.
Everyone sitting in the conference room praised Zhou Jiexi, as expected, if you can make a few games with your own creativity, you can get a game company worth more than one billion U.S. dollars, and a social software company worth more than one billion U.S. dollars company. And there is no need to say much about it. Everyone knows that it is creativity, and it is his unrestrained creativity that day that can achieve such achievements.
As for game engineers, forget it. There are too many people like this in Silicon Valley. As long as they need it, they can find a group of people at any time. Compared with Zhou Jiexi who had to find a way out at this point, it is much more convenient!
"Jesse, your proposal is very good. As a director of Apple, I hope you have good ideas and can tell the company. After all, you are also a director. The better the company, the more benefits you can get!" Jobs said in It was so simple in the meeting, a bit blunt, but it was really praising him. He explained his value to everyone, Zhou Jiexi is a very valuable person, not to mention anything else, the brain he has is worth doing.
"Of course, that's why I hope everyone can solve some existing problems together. As a director of the company, I also like the company to get better and better!" Zhou Jiexi said while sitting on a chair relaxedly. Although he was dressed in formal clothes, he was still a bit frivolous. The smell of relaxation.
This is acceptable to businessmen, isn't it just a little frivolous, it can create benefits, these are small details.
"I don't quite agree with your proposal to build a large-screen mobile phone. Our mobile phone has its own insistence. The current size and screen are the best match, and our plan for the next two years has been completed. On this point There is no need to talk about it for now." Jobs said at the meeting.
"You have the final say!" Zhou Jiexi said indifferently. Giving this suggestion is already an extra. He thinks that the screen is too small for Apple, and he doesn’t like to use the four-star big screen. Other brands are not fun, and sometimes he is really entangled.
"It's better to make a mobile phone by yourself. Apple's core, a large-screen outer box, make a good one. We don't care if the cost is high or low. There are many cheaper ones, and there are not many expensive and fashionable ones." Zhou How could Jesse have no problem with Jobs.
Lao Tzu kindly suggested, you play as me!
The more Zhou Jiexi thought about it, the more he felt that this matter seemed to be a trick. He invested tens of millions to get a mobile phone and try to see if he could reach an agreement with Apple to use his iOS system. If you can’t do it, you can use Android, make it more high-end and more elegant, and we just need to be more expensive. If you don’t want to be popular, it’s fine if the niche likes it.
With an idea in mind, he didn't listen carefully to what was said in the meeting room. Everyone didn't care, it would be nice if Zhou Jiexi could come here, and he even gave a proposal, and it's just to save face by sitting with you until the end.
"A cigar?" Art Levinson, who was sitting next to him, said to him relaxedly.
Zhou Jiexi glanced at him and said, "Thank you!" He took it, took out a match and toasted it, sniffing the mellow fragrance, "The high-end products from Cuba are indeed very good."
"Of course, it is still illegal to buy this in the United States, but it feels more exciting to smoke." Art Levinson cut off the cigar, lit it and took a puff.
In the office with more than a dozen people, there are some people who smoke and smoke cigars, and the two of them are not very prominent.
"Wait, can we chat?" Art Levinson suddenly whispered.
Zhou Jiexi cast a slight glance at an old woman and a few people behind her. Just nodded "Of course!"
"But together?" Zhou Jiexi asked again.
Art Levinson said: "We need to put a little pressure on them, don't we? Hehe..."
"It seems that you are ready to pay the price!"
After more than two hours of meeting, everyone packed up and prepared to leave. Jobs on the stage made a lot of guarantees to these shareholders. Zhou Jiexi represented the interests of the shareholders. As a non-executive director, he himself didn't take it seriously.
After leaving the company, Art Levinson got into Zhou Jiexi's car, along with four other shareholders. This is mainly because his car is relatively large, and his security facilities seem to be more reassuring. Compared with his subordinates, several people found that they were still too cheap, and they needed to hire two more bodyguards.
Inside Apple Jobs' office.
Now several senior managers of the company are gathered, among them Cook is sitting on the sofa opposite Jobs, holding the cup in his hand a little irritably, "Those people got into Jessie Zhou's car, I don't know what they will talk about."
Jobs has become very thin, but he is still so sharp and wise when he is in deep thought. "They just did it for us, and there is nothing to worry about. Now some people on the board of directors are questioning your succession to my position."
