Chapter 207: Changing the World (Part II)

hero!

The latest issue of Time magazine directly used a milky white iPhone as the cover, marked with a bold word: hero!

Thirty years ago, the 'Apple One' was born in the garage and brought mankind into the personal computer age, so Jobs was praised by the world. Thirty years later, the iPhone was born, and Li Jiaming was also hailed as a hero who changed the world by Time Magazine!

"Good, the iPhone has changed the way people get information, and it's an epoch-making product. ”

"Yes, the era of the personal computer is not over, but the era of the iPhone is coming, and the era of the iPhone will be beyond Steve?."

"No, it's not an exaggeration at all, Steve's historical role is to usher in the era of personal computers, and he is the founder of the economic ecosystem theory, and he has been building an ecosystem with excellent as the core from the beginning.

For example, the software published on the official website of HH company, although it is free software, can be implanted with advertising plug-ins, and give customers the choice of whether to join VIP. In this way, maybe the profit that HH can make on the iPhone may not be more than what it can make on those software.

From this point of view, the iPhone is just a carrier, and excellent is the core of the whole ecosystem. ”

As if to confirm the judgment of the commentators, 5 million iPhones were sold out in two weeks, and under the fermentation of word of mouth, there were long queues in the business halls of the four major communication companies, the counters of Best Sales, and the HH stores in major cities.

Fortunately, with the development of the modern aviation industry, hundreds of thousands of iPhones are like flowing water, and the US dollars flow into the finance department of HH company.

5,000,000 units!

7.6 million units!

10.4 million units!

By the time Mr. Lee was concentrating on cooking in his old apartment in Cambridge, global iPhone sales had exceeded 20 million units, with sales reaching a staggering $10.158 billion.

Miracles!

Within a month and a half, iPhone sales exceeded 20 million units, and there was no decline, but as the god who created this miracle, he was able to cook in his old apartment. Not to mention that the American students who chased him in the supermarket and asked for a group photo couldn't understand it, and even Liu Shasha, who had hometown dishes to eat every day, couldn't understand it. Not to mention the flamboyant Americans, even those business owners in China, who have achieved such achievements, are not allowed to become news announcers and show their faces on TV every day?

Thanks to the developed Internet, the god-like man has become a family cook, buying vegetables and cooking every day, and it has spread around the world through Daniel Zhang's Facebook and has become a big news. Even Liu Shasha, who was waited by Li Jiaming for the thesis defense, is also known as the luckiest woman in the world. Of course, this is just the nonsense of the Chinese-language media, who believe in the nobility of a wife and husband, and the American media, who advocate personal struggle, call her the 'daughter of a harvard?' who conquers God.

The word conquest is good, Liu Shasha, who had just completed the thesis defense, was happy, rolled the thesis manuscript in her hand into a tube and put it on her boyfriend's mouth, and joked in the authentic old family dialect: "Dear Mr. Li, tell me, how can you be so calm?"

"Ahem, cough, cough"

Coughing a few times, Li Jiaming said very seriously like an announcer on the news network: "There are three unfilial pieties, and no descendants are great, compared with the great cause of inheriting the ancestry, this small achievement is not worth mentioning." ”

Liu Shasha tapped him lightly with the manuscript in her hand and said, "Hooligans!"

"People and groups, I'm a hooligan, what about you?"

"This girl comes out of the mud without staining!"

I just wanted to laugh a few words, but when I saw a Ford car with the window ajar not far away, Li Jiaming reached out and grabbed his girlfriend's shoulders and turned around and went to the parking lot.

"Another reporter?"

"Alas, it's hard to give up on being beautiful."

Liu Shasha, who was smiling like a flower, stretched out her hand to pinch the ugly face and said, "Cowhide!"

"I'm talking about you, it must be a domestic paparazzi, and I'm not a star, a serious reporter would take a secret photo like that?"

Liu Shasha, who had never seen the paparazzi, looked back and happened to see a middle-aged white man in a suit and leather shoes getting out of the car, and quickly turned his head back and jokingly said: "Cut, do you really think you are a fairy? Make a bet, whoever loses will wash the dishes and chopsticks!"

"Originally, I stir-fryed, you wash the dishes and chopsticks!"

The slender hand put on Li Jiaming's waist, "Bet or not?"

Between washing the dishes and the severe pain, Li Jiaming said without hesitation: "Bet!"

"You wash the dishes!"

Li Jiaming, who knew that he was going to lose, hurriedly turned around, and it turned out to be Bruce, the CEO of Qualcomm. To say that this guy is also a person, after Qualcomm was forcibly acquired by Intel, he quickly persuaded Intel's senior management to launch a series of measures to stabilize people's hearts and minds, and entered the field of telecom operations strongly.

But why did he come to himself? The chip purchased by Hanhua is Qualcomm's, otherwise it would be impossible to switch between 2G and 3G networks, even if he wants to strengthen cooperation, he should go to Kyle?

"Ming, long time no see!"

"Long time no see".

The two shook hands, and Bruce looked at the girl next to him and discussed, "Ming, is it convenient to chat?"

Seeing this, Liu Shasha prepared to go home first, but Li Jiaming didn't let go of the hand holding her shoulder, and replied: "She is my wife, if you don't mind, let's talk while walking."

"Jiaming?"

"If you listen to it from the side, if you want to start a business, you need to learn more negotiation skills. ”

"Oh".

"OK", Bruce shrugged his shoulders and walked next to the two, talking as he went.

In the past two years, relying on Intel's strong financial resources, Qualcomm has entered the field of telecom operations strongly, and has cooperated with Yang Zhiyuan to launch a new generation of technical standards. Now that the iPhone is born, it has further amplified the gap between the two standards, and it is bound to usher in the spring of the 3G standard.

However, it is the general trend that 3G can replace 2G, but it will not necessarily let Intel and Qualcomm get the biggest piece of the cake.

The IQ of people in love has dropped sharply, and Li Jiaming has unfortunately become one of them, and he didn't hear the other party's intention after listening to it for a long time, and Liu Shasha next to him thought he was waiting for the price to sell, and he was silent. But Bruce thought that he had no intention of cooperating, and was affected by the previous acquisition of Qualcomm, so he had to try to offer a sky-high price first.

"Ming, we want to buy a 10% stake in HH for $3 billion, do you think that's what you want?"

10% of the shares were actually acquired for $3 billion, Liu Shasha next to her was startled, and Li Jiaming quickly came back to his senses. What kind of acquisition is this? It is clearly to stuff money to themselves to ensure that FT and Intel can compete fairly, FT's chips do have a performance gap with Intel's, but the gap is rapidly narrowing.

Hehe, the excellent system is in the hands of Hanhua, and Hanhua is determined by himself, no wonder they will ask for it.

"No, we're in talks with several foundations, and they value HH at $100 billion. ”

What? Liu Shasha felt empty, wasn't that Jia Ming's family assets of at least $50 billion?

But Bruce next to him bargained: "How about our share swap?"

What are you kidding?hh is a hen that is laying golden eggs, Qualcomm's future is uncertain, Li Jiaming said cleanly: "No, I will sell the shares of FT company at the right time." ”

If he buys the shares in the hands of this bastard, he will lose his interest in the FT company, which is not unacceptable. Bruce weighed for a moment and discussed, "Ming, how much do you think FT is worth?"

It's hard to say, after the iPhone is released in China, the simplified version of the overall solution will be handed over to those partners, and FT's chips can fully meet their needs. At that time, I wonder if Intel will be so happy?
