Chapter 97

In the subsequent journey, Zuckerberg has been trying to figure out what Ahn Junhyuk's "opportunity" is, but Ahn Junhyuk has been immersed in the idea most of the time, and the effort has been fruitless for a while, Zuckerberg, who has not rested well, finally couldn't resist the exhaustion, and curled up in his seat alone and fell asleep.

The plane sailed at an altitude of 40,000 feet, and the clouds lay quietly below, like a long black field, sometimes uplifted in some places, and huge shadows stood at the end of the view, like mountains. Above, the thin clouds and mist were like light veils, the semi-circular moon sowed brilliance, and the bright moonlight shone on the eternal tranquility of the high sky, and no other sound could be heard except the faint roar of the planes.

The cabin gradually quieted down, most of the people fell asleep, the lights went out, the large screen at the front of the cabin showing movies faintly illuminated a faint light source, and occasionally a gentle cough sounded in the dark, indicating that there were still people asleep, and in the corner of the back of the cabin, Ahn Junhyuk, who was specially changed to this side, turned the light to the extent that he could see things and not disturb others, and still buried himself in writing.

The stewardess who had asked him for an autograph before had come out to see it a few times, and in the darkness, the only dim lamp lit up, and the young man who was writing hard under the lamp, and occasionally touching the contemplation, left a silhouette in her eyes.

What is he doing?

She thought, but there was no answer. A serious man is undoubtedly the most attractive, she likes to watch Korean dramas and Korean movies, so she knows Ahn Joon-hyuk, but she used to be just an ordinary idol until this quiet night. She watched him rustle and shake the tip of his pen under the lamp from afar, and watched his shadow dragged to the ground by the dim halo, and her heart was quietly sore.

Before the last shift change, she came out to inspect again, and when she walked to Ahn Junhyuk's side, she squatted down and whispered, "Mr. An, aren't you resting yet?"

Ahn Jun-hyuk, who didn't know what he was thinking, suddenly woke up, glanced at her, and nodded slightly: "Oh." Xie Lu Xie cares. But there is still something to be done. ”

Hearing his words, she glanced at the notebook that had been filled with fonts, many of which she didn't know in Korean, but there was also some English. Social, mobile, global market ...... and so on. I don't understand it though. But he also knew that the road must not be simple, so a certain emotion that seemed to be joy and sadness quietly clutched his chest.

I would have liked to say a few more words. After all, there may not be such a chance next time, but suddenly, a thousand words were blocked in the throat because of this, and finally came out, and it was also a secret sigh: "Then, you pay more attention to your body, don't work too late." ”

"Thank you, I will. ”

She turned to leave, and as she reached the hatch, she looked back again.

In the darkness, the light was still bright, the light was confined to that area, and it could not shine here, there were more than ten rows of seats between her and him, the quiet air was faintly wafting, and the rustle of the tip of the pen on the paper was faintly audible.

It's so close!

But some people are obviously very close to you, so close that you can reach them, but it is not until you get close to them that you realize that for those people, the end of the world is just a stone's throw away......

……

……

In January, San Francisco and the area around San Francisco Bay are still dominated by the Mediterranean climate, and the cold of winter is not visible here, and the plants all over the city and the wilderness are still green and swaying, and the temperature of about 10 degrees Celsius makes it possible to see spring and summer in this season.

San Francisco has a watery winter, and when Ahn Jun-hyuk and Zuckerberg got off the plane, a light rain also fell from the sky, blowing from the bay, and the slightly salty wind swept the city with rain.

Sean Parker, who received the call in advance, came to pick up the airport, and when they met, he smiled and asked, "Mark, didn't you just go to Japan?

Zuckerberg rolled his eyes, "You think I want to come back!"

"Uh......" Sean Parker was stunned, and then looked at Ahn Junhyuk, in his puzzled eyes, Ahn Junhyuk, who had stayed up all night, didn't explain much, just asked: "Sean, is my hotel arranged?"

"Oh, it's been arranged, it's still the Four Seasons Hotel you stayed at last time. ”

"Take me, I need to rest for the night, you can help me inform me that I'm going to have a management meeting tomorrow morning, and all the middle and senior management are going to be there, and you can ask Apple to invite Mr. Steve Jobs to sit in on our meeting. ”

After that, Ahn Junhyuk, whose eyes were already bloodshot and looked extremely sleepy, got into the car and began to close his eyes, leaving Sean Parker outside the car stunned.

He glanced at Zuckerberg, who looked like he couldn't lift his mind at all, and asked quietly, "Hey, what's wrong with Ann?"

"Don't ask me where I know. Zuckerberg waved his hand frustratedly.

"You ......" Sean spread his hands helplessly, "Okay, okay, but Ann's decision was too hasty, and it's okay to hold a management meeting, but why should you invite someone from Apple to attend? and Steve Jobs, I don't think that old man will take care of us!"

Zuckerberg really didn't know what Ahn Junhyuk wanted to do, he only knew that Ahn Junhyuk had been busy on the plane for 7 or 8 hours, and he had been planning what to dodge until he woke up, and he dozed off for a while, and he didn't have time to ask.

However, since taking over as CEO, Ahn Junhyuk has always been extremely supportive of him, and he also trusts Ahn Junhyuk, so he did not hesitate much, but just ordered: "Do what Ahn says! Steve Jobs can come if he wants, and forget it if he doesn't." ”

“…… Okay!" Sean has always respected Zuckerberg's will, and since Zuckerberg also supports it, he has nothing more to say.

When Sean Parker got in the car and beckoned the driver to leave for Palo Alto, ready to drop Ahn Joon-hyuk off at the Four Seasons Hotel, it was twilight, and in Cupertino under the yellowing sky, Lee Jae-yong came to visit Jobs' office as usual to fulfill his duty of building a personal relationship with the head of Apple.

After he went back yesterday, he conveyed the meaning of Jobs to his father Lee Kun-hee, who was far away in South Korea, and it was late at night. Participated in a conference call with Samsung Group.

At the meeting, the agents who asked to tear up the agreement were still dissatisfied with Jobs's attitude, but the persecution offensive was finally eased, in any case, Samsung is still the Li family's consortium, and Lee Kunxi, who has led Samsung to its current scale, is gaining prestige. Otherwise. It is not in anyone's interest to make the internal struggle public.

After the meeting, he also mentioned to his father who caused Jobs to revise the date of the new product launch conference, and when he heard Ahn Jun-hyuk's name, Lee Jae-yong clearly noticed his father, who had always been moody. There was a moment of astonishment.

Of course. He didn't mean anything else when he mentioned Ahn Joon-hyuk. The main reason was to report to my father that Google also had a mobile device operating system, and my father didn't say anything, just after a while. He was instructed: "Keep up with Steve Jobs, and don't worry about anything else." ”

This is also his job, but on this day, he can't help but think, what will his father choose?

Father thinks that Apple's iPhone will help the consortium's electronic business seize the opportunity of mobile high-speed network, but how to seize it, in fact, there is no clue, Apple's own system called iPhone.OS, whether Jobs or Apple's board of directors, will not allow others to use it at all, Jobs wants to build the Apple brand, the board of directors wants the profits brought by the fully closed and exclusive operation, not the market share of the iPhone.OS operating system, it is different from Microsoft's purpose after all.

If it is simply attached to Apple, the future of Samsung Electronics may be reduced to a company with strong assets but a worthless brand, which is contrary to Samsung's strategy of getting rid of the low brand image and establishing a mid-to-high-end business.

"If it's me...... What should I do?"

When he was very young, his father taught him to empathize like this, and his father said that a decision-maker should not only focus on the high, but also learn to consider the problem from the perspective of others.

While thinking, he quietly showed a respectful posture, listening to Steve Jobs in front of him, who was holding the touch components removed from the test machine and demonstrating to him the design concept of some of the iPhone's functions.

As mentioned earlier, Samsung needs Apple, and Apple also needs Samsung, he took the initiative to be a student of Steve Jobs, and Steve Jobs also fulfilled the duties of a teacher, Lee Jae-yong came to Cupertino these days, Jobs never hid it from him when he was conducting research, and even explained to him in detail which part is used where, what function will be formed with other components, what difficulties these functions encountered in development, and what solutions were finally applied.

Theoretically speaking, if you remove the faint dissociation caused by their different identities and backgrounds, the two can probably be called the best students and the best teachers.

The explanation lasted for more than two hours, and when it was dark, Steve Jobs put down the parts in his hand, took out a handkerchief and wiped his hands, and smiled at Lee Jae-yong, who bowed respectfully and was about to leave: "Tonight, come to my house for a meal, it's a very common family gathering, it's all about having fun with your own family." ”

This is not the first time such an invitation, Li Zaiyong responded: "Excellent, Xie Lu Xie teacher!"

"Haha......ha Class relations as tight as Japan......" Jobs laughed at the mention of the Japanese, and he remembered his defeat to Japan's Sony.

Defeating Sony is one of the few most rewarding things in his life, and in the era when he grew up, the whole United States was full of Japanese products, the best TV was Toshiba, the best consumer electronics were Sony, Sanyo, and the best household appliances were Panasonic...... And now, they are declining one by one, and one of the giant enterprises that he once needed to look up to is still defeated by him.

This kind of pride in life, even after many years, will not fade in the slightest.

Lee Jae-yong diligently helped him bring a coat, Jobs put it on, and was about to continue to say something, when the office door suddenly knocked on, Jobs looked at the blackened sky outside the window, and frowned: "What's the matter?"

The door opened, and Phil Schiller walked in.

The product sales executive was a confidant of Steve Jobs, who was kicked out by Apple's board of directors and left with him, and when Apple needed Jobs, Jobs returned and Phil Schiller followed.

Steve Jobs may have many shortcomings, but in the face of such a loyal person, he will still show a different attitude, seeing that it is him, the faint dissatisfaction between the old man's eyebrows immediately disappeared, and said with a smile: "Phil, dear, now that you have left work, are you ready to ask me, an old man, to accompany you to work overtime?"

Phil spread his hands: "Why can't you do it? Anyway, you can pay yourself overtime casually!"

"Ha Luha, overtime pay can't make up for my family's disappointment, I promise them to go back early......"

"It doesn't take much of your time, Steve, it's just an invitation, I think you'll be interested. ”

"Oh?" Phil Schiller has a steady personality, he will definitely not come in person with an ordinary invitation, Jobs showed a slightly curious look, "Okay Phil, tell me, are you going to ask me out, or are you someone else's lobbyist?"

Phil Schiller glanced at Lee Jae-yong, who had been standing aside, paused, and said, "Facebook Director Sean Parker has just contacted me and would like to invite you to attend Facebook's management meeting tomorrow. ”

As soon as the words fell, Jobs, who was carelessly dressed, froze for a moment, and then turned his head in surprise: "Sean Parker......? Phil, the former president of Facebook, who was dismissed from his post on suspicion of drug possession, is not funny at all. ”

As he spoke, he unabashedly showed disgust and disdain in his expression.

Phil Schiller has long been accustomed to his meanness and undisguised attitude, shrugging: "Sean Parker is not qualified to hold a management meeting, the chairman is Facebook CEO, South Korea Ann." ”

Ahn Joon-hyuk?

Lee Jae-yong, who had been waiting with his head down and didn't know what he was thinking, raised his head in surprise.

Beside him, Jobs was also slightly stunned, but he recovered in an instant, smiled, and said to Lee Jae-yong: "It turned out to be your compatriot, well, we talked about him yesterday, and he invited me to audit Facebook's management meeting today...... Hehe, what does this little guy want to do?"

"Uh, I'm sorry, teacher, I don't know him......" Lee Jae-yong came to his senses and said quickly.

Jobs didn't say anything more, he did have an interest in some of Ahn Junhyuk's speeches, but that interest was not enough for him to waste dozens of minutes or even an hour or two, and he was about to casually refuse, but as soon as his hand was raised, he put it down again.

In Phil Schiller's waiting gaze, Jobs thought for a while, and finally replied: "Phil, reply over there, I will spare ten minutes to see what he wants to do through the video, hopefully, he will not let me down!" (To be continued......)
