Chapter 1171: Unintentional Move
"Welcome, welcome......"
"Long admired the ...... of the Daimyo"
They looked at each other and smiled, and then the two sides shook hands. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The meeting with Steve was a little different from what I expected.
Driven by the company he founded, he also experienced the glory and glory of the second venture, and experienced the intricate and almost unsolvable financial difficulties that he needed to face after his return.
The original Steve speaks a little faster, energetic, confident and full of fighting spirit.
But even if he tried his best to show moderation, the title of 'tyrant' was obviously difficult to take off, and it was quite consistent with the image of the powerful aura that appeared in the spotlight in his memory......
Walking into Apple's internal showroom, Fu Zhengyi saw mostly minimalist designs with a strong personal style of Steve, and many of the conceptual products full of imagination were quite stunning and eye-catching.
Seeing him lingering on the gizmos in the display case, Steve said with a smile. "Thank you for helping Apple in the most difficult time, but everything you see in this room is confidential, some of which will be officially released, but some of which will be eliminated and will never appear in public......"
"Okay, then I'll say a few things first, you think I'll be like Bill, stealing your brainchild......"
Steve was stunned, and saw that although his expression was serious, there was a thick smile in his eyes, and he immediately understood what he was referring to, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. "OK!OK!I take back my previous words, please don't mind my sensitive ......"
"It's not that you're sensitive, but I sincerely want to express my admiration for Apple's innovative ability and admiration for your own talent......"
Steve froze. "You mean really?"
"It's true! I believe that Apple will grow into a 'great' company under your leadership......
Whether it was a joke or a joke, Steve was immune to such compliments, but he was still a little excited when he said it from the young man in front of him, who had become the second richest man in the world.
Is there an easier way to measure a person's success than to run for president in the United States than to distinguish between the amount of wealth?
Steve, who dropped out of school at the age of nineteen for financial reasons, founded the company with a friend two years later, which made him a real billionaire and super rich man at the age of twenty-five......
The young man's ambition has given Steve too much vision and the ability to adjust his emotions beyond his peers, but in the face of the smiling young man in front of him, he really has a lot of emotion, and it also makes him unconsciously clean up his arrogance and be a little more surprised, so in the end he found that this must be a young man who has entered the company for the first time, and he is not only surprised by some of the conceptual products developed and designed by the company, but seems to have a mood similar to 'remembrance', strolling in his intentions. He was proud of the products that would be further developed and improved in the future, as if he had known that he would see them here!
It's so weird!
It's really weird!
Since the return, almost all the conceptual products in this showroom have been replaced, some may be further developed, but some have been determined to be abandoned, and there will never be the possibility of further changes, but how can JusticeF, a rich man who has made a lot of money in the financial industry and the Internet industry, be so familiar with Apple's product line?
Curious, Steve decided to bring him into his office, and was stunned when he saw the iPod he was currently working on, and iTunes, a program he had developed specifically for this purpose, that could manage digital media playback from PC and Mac.
Being able to see the prototype of the original iPod that will be on the market next year, Fu Zhengyi felt that this trip to Apple was already worth it, so he really didn't notice the strangeness of Steve's expression, he was holding the iPod in one hand to operate, immersed in the deep memories of this product, and waited until the headphones were taken off without regret. "Steve, although it would be a bit too much to say this, but the problem is that the design of this product is similar to the style of the eighth generation or the ninth generation MP3 player of [Yuyao Technology], and I suspect that if Apple can't make this product go on the market in the next quarter, when the MP3 player of [Yuyao Technology] is put on the market first, then even if [Yuyao Technology] does not take the initiative to pursue it, consumers will think that Apple is suspected of design infringement ......"
Steve was stunned, and then he was furious. "What? What did you say? Do you know what you're talking about?"
If Apple gives up the research and development of this product because of this, then it will be difficult to escape the blame, if it causes Steve's design concept to be shaken and self-doubted, and finally those amazing electronic products can not be launched, then not only can Apple no longer be called 'great', but its own equity in Apple will not become a pile of waste paper?
Thinking of this, Fu Zhengyi couldn't help sighing, and asked Ran Ying to call up the relevant design patent information for Steve to see, and saw that he was very shocked, but he was a little helpless. "I'm sorry, but these patents were applied for one or two years ago by the Design Center in Brussels, and are protected by design patents in more than 70 countries and regions around the world......"
"But、But I can guarantee that this design is absolutely not plagiarized from any of the company's products! After two months of discussion on the appearance of the finalized design, every member of the design team is an honest and veteran employee who has been in the company for more than ten years, I—I can't believe that such a thing will happen! I, I ......"
Steve's incoherent words made Fu Zhengyi more and more helpless, when he was engaged in these exterior designs, he was only targeting international electronics giants such as Motorola, Samsung, Sony and Nokia, where would he have thought that an unintentional move at that time would make Apple's designs become resources in the patent library?
