Chapter Eighty-Seven: Borrowing a CEO
"13:56am: Macworld is ready to enter, in line ......"
"14:01am: A lot of people, looking back, it seems that the line is out of sight, at least 3 or 4,000 people, it's terrible. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"14:06am: Wow, I saw Ahn Woo-hee! He just got out of the car, with Kim Jung-wook, the CEO of AWM Network, and Zuckerberg from Facebook, but unfortunately we couldn't get by, they were on the VIP line...... Damn!"
On the other side of the world, in South Korea, where it has just entered the middle of the night, many people are sitting in front of their computers, refreshing over and over again the simple "Macworld text live room" in the special page specially opened by the portal Angeland.
Apple's fans are all over the world, and before the one-month postponement of Macworld, Apple announced that the new product will be released as scheduled at the conference, and even used words such as "crazy" and "unbelievable" in the promotion, emphasizing the importance of the new product at the conference.
It's been almost 3 years since the last time a similar word was used, and although every time Apple advertises a new product, it's almost the same sentence, but this year's Macworld still makes Apple fans notice something unusual, for example, after Jobs released the launch date and location of Macworld from Apple's official website, it was designated as the conference venue, and the on-site layout of the Apple Store in San Francisco has been in secret, and no outsiders are allowed to approach it except for workers who have signed an agreement。
According to media reports, even the employees of the Apple Store did not know what the workers were doing.
Such a solemn event obviously aroused the curiosity of Apple fans, and the South Korean side, the reason for the grand report is because in the guest list of this Macworld announced by Apple, An Yuxi was alongside Yahoo Yang Zhiyuan, Google Eric, ATT Edward and other Internet, electronics industry, telecommunications industry bigwigs, his title in the guest list is Facebook CEO, Skymap design director.
This kind of news simply makes the Korean entertainment industry almost crazy, countless fans who simply like An Yuxi, or both, fanatically chase any news about Macworld, the Internet industry, the consumer electronics industry is also extremely concerned about this conference, with attention there are customers, major portals have arranged reporters to rush to San Francisco in advance, in order to be able to ensure that they can enter the venue, many people even began to line up the day before.
Among those people are also representatives of Ahn Yuxi's fan station in the United States.
Although she is the most authoritative administrator of Angel Island, she is still a high school student, and Jin Yamei, who has been busy tutoring recently, has no way to go to the United States, so she can only keep refreshing the "text live room" like everyone else, watching the frontline deliver live news, fortunately, someone still uploaded pictures.
But there is still a place to watch the live broadcast.,A company installed live broadcast equipment in the castle.,Ten girls are watching the live broadcast at this time.,When Jessica, who understands English, introduced An Yuxi's identity,Everyone opened their mouths wide.,A look of incredulity.。
"CEO? Oppa is the CEO who has to die?"
"How much else is Oppa hiding from us!" the girls asked.
Of course, while they were surprised, the live broadcast continued.
"As you can see, this Macworld is very lively, the crowd in line can no longer even see the tail of the camera, preliminary statistics, there are at least 3,000 people at the scene...... In the distance, Facebook CEO Ahn Woo-seok, as well as Facebook founder Zuckerberg and AWM Network CEO Kim Jung-wook, have arrived, Facebook is currently the second largest social networking site in the United States, and the latest news shows that the site has 30 million users, second only to Myspace. CEO Justin Ahn led the partnership between Facebook and Apple last month, and the mapping product Skymap developed by the two parties is the most popular 'crowdsourced map' on the Internet...... Ah, audience friends, please look at the VIP line, Yahoo CEO Yang Zhiyuan, Intel CEO Paul Otellan also arrived, followed by the Jobs family, they are greeting, chatting...... God, if you add Eric Schmidt, the CEO of Google, who seems to be late, then that small place will stand with the most luxurious lineup in the global electronics industry!"
"Are they all ready to support Apple's 'crazy' and 'incredible' new products?
The front-line reporter is obviously also an Apple fan, and in an excited mood, he threw up the words of praise one by one, but the audience in front of the TV was not disgusted, they looked at the camera lens, the endless queue, and the focus on the close-up, several people in the Internet industry, electronics, and telecommunications industry standing in the VIP line, and their hearts were also a little agitated for a while.
In the past few years, although Macworld has been held every year, such a heavyweight guest lineup seems to have been lost for a long time, so long that it seems to have been thrown into the corner of memory. But when I picked it up at this time, people found that they had not forgotten the shock of that year.
For example, Macintosh, for example, iPod!
Could it be that the new Apple product that Steve Jobs is about to launch will be as groundbreaking as the Macintosh and the iPod? Could it be that today we will once again see the birth of a new history?
Time is moving forward without stopping, and the crowd on the TV screen is also moving forward in this kind of anticipation.
At about 14:30, the Apple Store began to close, and half an hour later, Apple, which was finally busy with all the preparations, arranged for the staff to remove the isolation zone, and the entire huge exhibition hall suddenly became chaotic, and countless people kept crowding the elevator in order to get a good position.
Many people have even stepped over the VIP line, and if it weren't for the support of people arranged in advance by Apple Store, An Yuxi, Yang Zhiyuan, Ou Dening and others would probably be crowded.
Finally squeezing into the elevator, listening to the noise that was still going on over there, Zuckerberg patted his chest and felt palpitations, "These people are crazy." However, the envy on his face was even stronger, "Ann, do you think our developer conference this summer will have such a grand occasion?"
Hearing his inquiry, An Yuxi shrugged: "Of course it can't be." ”
"Hey, can't you say something nice to comfort me?" Zuckerberg exclaimed dissatisfied.
"The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, but I'm sure in a few years' time, Facebook will be in the same situation. Patting him on the shoulder, An Yuxi smiled, and then at the moment when he showed a longing expression, he poured cold water again: "So, in the past few years that have not been reached, you still don't want to be delusional." ”
“…… Fakyu!"
"Thank you for your favor, but I like women. Fighting back, without waiting for Zuckerberg to protest again, An Yuxi, who had already arrived at the venue, smiled and walked briskly to Steven Jobs, who greeted him.
"Hey, Ann, you didn't have any trouble down there, did you? Although we have prepared enough, the enthusiasm of the users has exceeded expectations, and lo and behold, what a suitable stage for you...... Hahahaha, okay, don't look at me so helplessly, come, I'll introduce you to me, this is my wife......"
Depressed watching An Yuxi being dragged away by Jobs, Zuckerberg, who had nowhere to vent, had no choice but to look at Kim Jung-wook complainingly: "Hey, man, was that guy so hateful when he was in South Korea?"
Kim Jung-wook was expressionless.
An Yuxi was taken away by Jobs, and came back after about ten minutes, when the entire huge venue, the people who poured in had already found their own positions, staggered and sat down, the bright lights of the venue were still on, and the whole space was reverberating with people's voices.
