Chapter 874: The Apple That Greets You with a Smiling Face After Being Slapped (12/12 Supplement)
On January 1, 2008, when the old year was sent away, it was also a festival that sent away the gloom of the past year and ushered in new hopes, but it was dominated by a game composed of a green channel, a stupid bird with a little dull eyes, and a few white clouds.
If you don't fly hard, you will fall to death, and if you try too hard, you will die.
There are no tutorials, and the strategy is also a floating cloud, and you need to keep getting up from failure.
If you play a few games, you will be grumpy and don't drop your phone, which means that you are short-tempered and irritable!
。。。 Fortunately, it is only the JAVA version, and the iPhone is really not as resistant to Nokia as it is.
On the first day of the new year, newspapers all over the United States were dominated by this clumsy eye-popping bird, well, the same is true in Europe, all the players who have played the stupid bird fly first saw the report and cursed, and then unwillingly took out their mobile phones to continue to look for abuse.
And those who haven't played are eager to try, after all, everyone plays, only they don't play, tsk, they will be outdated, and there is no common topic to talk about. Download, install, try, die, die... Angry... Swear...
On this day, Andy Smith's name was greeted countless times in every corner of the world.
Ivana looked at the various reports in the newspaper, gloating and giggling, and almost rolled on the couch, before she was abused by this game, and thought she was too stupid, and now the whole world is suffering from NUE.
"Hmm, so powerful, okay, I know, I can announce it to the public, it seems that there are really a lot of masters!"
Andy hung up the phone, looking at Ivana, who was smiling and trembling, the suspender nightdress was also a little off, and the dazzling white half-QIU was ji, and couldn't help but joke: "Someone has uploaded the results, and the current first place has scored 33 points!"
"Oh, it can't be! Ivana smiled froze, her face stunned, and she screamed in surprise.
Andy stepped forward, holding her bee waist with his left hand, and began to play with the ball with his right hand without pity, and said with a smile: "There is nothing impossible in this world, and looking at the name is still a girl, to be honest, I was shocked, to know this game... “
"Nasty. Ivana was so angry by Andy's Muji ninjutsu that she rubbed the balls, and clinged to Andy's arms tightly, and when she heard him say half of it, she asked with some curiosity: "What's wrong with this game?"
"Let's put it this way, the difficulty of this game has already changed very much, and the JAVA version of the mobile phone I made are all resistive screens, hardware defects, so that the difficulty of this game is almost doubled, theoretically no one can get 100 points, but, now it seems, I still underestimate the ability of the player's master. ”
"Huh, what a bastard!"
"Hehe, I've been sprayed since last night, and I'm very unhappy now, and the anger is a little strong! ”
Andy sat on the sofa with a smile and pointed to the carpet, Ivana glanced at her boyfriend charmingly, and sat on the carpet with a red chun...
In the morning, when Andy was tossing his girlfriend, he, the game developer, had no media to interview, but it was difficult for these media to be reluctant to do so for the sake of newspaper sales.
Not only did they find experts to analyze the game, but they also found psychologists, interviewed gamers from all walks of life, and collected all kinds of feedback, and they wanted to treat this matter as a big news at the beginning of the new year of '08.
Apple Industrial Park, San Francisco.
"Didn't you get a good rest?" Jobs, who was getting thinner, asked with concern as he looked at a tired Cook, reaching out to take a folder that Cook handed him.
"Ahem, I was by that game. Cook shook his head bitterly.
"What? You play too? A few of my children in my family were tormented by this game, and I asked them to uninstall it, but no one paid attention to me... Jobs looked at Cook with some consternation, and he was a little helpless when he thought of the children who were screaming and making trouble at home.
"I gave up after a few rounds, Ben, and I played all night without saying anything, and I was very emotional, Andy Smith developed a crazy game!" explained Cook, who is short for Ben and his Asian boyfriend, and it's no secret that Cook is GAY in Apple management.
"In fact, for people who play this game, everyone has a common characteristic, that is, everyone is very angry after playing, so it can also be called a self-NUE game, which is completely a game of pit people.
If you don't play so many fun games, you just want to play this kind of extreme game, either you have a problem with your brain, or you are self-nue. Therefore, it is better to persuade the people around you not to play this game, and if you want to play the game, you can find a healthier game to play, otherwise it will become violent after a long time. Endangering others also endangers one's own health. ”
Jobs didn't take into account Cook's feelings and directly said his thoughts, after all, his children were also playing the game, and he was a little disgusted with the design concept of this game.
"I'm afraid no one will pay attention to your point of view now, the first Andy Smith has repeatedly emphasized from the beginning of development, warning about the difficulty of this game, but at the time everyone didn't believe it, but they all looked forward to it more and more.
Second, it's free, which is something that almost no one can refuse. The third is Andy Smith's money-throwing benefits, a real American knife, at present, Liberty City has updated the game ranking, the first place has 33 points, and fifteen thousand dollars have been cashed out by a girl, this storm is already overwhelming!"
Hearing Cook's somewhat helpless explanation, Jobs' eyes flashed with Limang, and his expression was a little solemn: "I didn't expect him to use this method to fight back." ”
"Can't be underestimated,Now there are media who have begun to say that fortunately it's not the IOS version,It's said that the crazy phone doesn't have Nokia anti-fall and other news has been concocted,Now the trend has just begun,The sales of the crazy mobile phone will definitely be affected,After all, all young people are playing this game,Love crazy mobile phone may be idle,The sword goes sideways!"
Cook to be honest, he didn't want to fall out with Andy Smith, but Joe was overbearing, he had to collect tolls, a breach of contract has made Apple criticized, and now he is almost going to completely offend the partners who initially supported them, through several negotiations, he has always had a feeling that the genius young man has been guarding against Apple from crossing the river and demolishing the bridge since the beginning of the cooperation, and he saw one by one, the invisible shackles were put on Apple, and he even suspected that Andy Smith still had a back hand waiting for them.
"Is this the latest data from the Liberty City Mall?" Jobs looked at Cook with a slightly surprised pupil in his eyes.
"Yes, you've also found out that the traffic carried by their website is no longer what normal servers can do, I've been keeping people watching, when the download peaks, our people download at the same time, it's still very smooth, they can't build a super server for a free game, and I've also asked people to inquire, they haven't bought a new unit recently. ”
"There's only one possibility! His cloud computing company has made a breakthrough and progressed... Jobs's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and there was a kind of amazement and a hint of unwillingness in his tone.
"No wonder he would tie up his partner with that kind of unequal share distribution agreement, it seems that this Ye is really a powerful person. Cook suddenly remembered the share agreement of Musica Cloud Computing Company that was ridiculed by Silicon Valley newspapers some time ago, and now it seems that Andy Smith, a young man, does have a different courage and vision.
"There are a lot of geniuses in this world, and as I said, the new technology that can challenge these big companies in Silicon Valley, or even eliminate them, may have started writing code in a certain garage!" Jobs stood up, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looked at Apple's industrial park, and said in a somewhat clear voice.
"So, do we have a chance?" asked Cook with a frown.
"Cloud computing increases investment,As for the inclusion of those four games in the Apple Store, let's wait a minute.,Our crazy mobile phone is not the mainstream after all.,Can't form an oppressive xing advantage.,Andy Smith is a genius.,Seriously,This time his counterattack made us a little passive.,It seems,I need to make a phone call with him.。。。 ”
Hearing that his boss was going to call Andy in person, to be honest, it was a bit of a grievance to be slapped by the other party with a swollen face and a smiling face, and couldn't help but hurriedly say: "I'll make this call!"
"Huh. Jobs glanced back at Cook, shook his head and chuckled, then lowered his head and whispered: "Only if I make this call, he will update the IOS version of this crazy game, and even if I do, he will agree, but it will take a while to update, after all, Love Crazy 3G is about to go on the market." ”
Cook nodded a little helplessly, Andy Smith directly picked out that only the JAVA version was developed when he broadcast the development progress live, and at that time, some people speculated that there was a crack in the cooperation between Apple and Andy Smith.
When the game is on the shelves, it is completely a touch MO screen control game, Andy Smith, who has been very supportive of the IOS system from the beginning, has changed the norm, abandoned the more sensitive capacitive screen love crazy mobile phone, and chose the resistive screen mobile phone that is now considered to be unresponsive and has been discussed to be abandoned, which undoubtedly verifies this speculation.
Andy Smith This is in the face of Apple, which is in the face of the righteous and bright pumping without the spirit of the contract, crossing the river and demolishing the bridge!
This makes a lot of melon-eating mobile phone companies snicker!
Public opinion has also begun to ramp up for Apple's unkindness and violation of the spirit of the contract. Coupled with the impetus of some forces, if these unfavorable public opinions are not resolved as soon as possible, this will have a certain impact on Apple's brand value, of course, the most important thing is that Apple's crazy mobile phone is still just a baby, and it does not account for much of the share in the mobile phone market at all, and the sales of 6 million units are really not enough to see, Apple still needs friends!
