As we all know, from 1985 to 1997, because Jobs left Apple, Apple once faced a collapse, which was Apple's recession period.

After the birth of Microsoft's Windows 95, until now, Apple's computer market has been low.

After Steve Jobs returned to Apple in 1997, the situation improved, but in 2001, after the bursting of the Internet bubble, the Grim Reaper's global Internet paralysis disaster, the 2002 financial crisis, the atypical flu, and until the end of this year, the bankruptcy turmoil brought about by the financial crisis, the global economic depression is still very severe and intuitive.

What's more, Jobs has hung up, and Cook, who was originally only appointed in 2011, has taken over the position of chief operating officer as vice president of Apple.

And the chairman of Apple's board of directors is led by former CEO Jill Jill.

Jill made a great contribution to Apple, and in fact the credit was no worse than Jobs, but Jobs ousted Jill from power, so after Jobs hung up, Jill became the chairman of the board of directors as a matter of course and reorganized Apple's board of directors.

When Jill took office in 1996, Apple's bank deposits could only last three months, but in 1997 Jill was ousted by Steve Jobs, leaving Apple with $3 billion.

In 1998, Jobs announced that Apple was profitable again, but it was not actually Jill's credit.

It's just that the media have forgotten about him, and Jobs also has a bad evaluation of Jill.

Steve Jobs was good at playing with power, and in short, he had a great obsession with Apple. As the founder of Apple. I've always wanted to hold the apple that I created zào. Hold on tightly.

If it weren't for the fact that in 1985, Steve Jobs really couldn't take back Apple, he was discouraged, sold a large amount of Apple's shares, and left only one share to collect Apple's annual report, then he was definitely the first person in Apple.

It's just that Apple's valuable things are not factories, production lines, and stocks, but intangible assets such as engineers and patents.

back then. Jobs also left Apple because of a conflict with John Scully, and the conflict between Jill and Jobs, that is, because Jobs always wanted to return, and Jill was preventing it, because he had a conflict with the members of the board of directors.

Well, now that all the grievances are gone because of the death of Jobs.

Jill is the chairman of the board, Cook is the chief operating officer, and Scully has returned to Apple as a board member.

These three people. In addition, there are three directors: Arter Levinson, chairman of Gentech Corporation, Albert Gore, former vice president of Magnesium Group, and Jonathan Yve, senior vice president of Apple's design department.

These six people are currently members of Apple's board of directors and maintain Apple.

To say that among these six people. The most crucial figure for Apple is, of course, Jonathan Yves.

He is Apple's industrial designer, senior vice president, knight of the British Empire, and was involved in the design of many Apple products such as iPod, iMac, iPhone, iPad in his previous life, except for Jobs, he is the most influential person on Apple products.

Of course, this is all in a previous life, Apple's important team of designers - slightly.

plus the Nokia designer team hired by Li Feiteng - Jeben.

For Xiaolong mobile phones, in the future, the design of Youluo, Jeben and Li Feiteng will inevitably make the shape patents of Apple's various products.

The shape of magnesium electronic products is also patented, as for mobile phone patents.

In the past two years, Li Feiteng has purchased patents for the production of chips from Nokia, Motorola, Sony, Samsung, Leica, ADM, etc., just to develop better mobile phones.

But that's not enough.

The time is too short, and now Feiteng Electronics Group only has more than 300 product patent applications every year.

Apple has more than 600 patents every year, while Microsoft has more than 2,200 last year, not to mention giants such as Sony, Samsung, and Nokia.

When the company has developed to a certain level, the superficial account book and short-term profitability are no longer so important to Li Feiteng.

Obviously, he's doing a good job in terms of books and earnings, and for Apple, the company hasn't really recovered its profitability yet.

However, the patent projects obtained by people every year, and the many technologies they have mastered, as long as they really develop a good product, they will be able to rise again.

As for Li Feiteng, there is still a great lack of patents in electronics.

Of course, electrons are electronic, and the Internet is the Internet.

Although Google has been established for a short time, it has entered the top ten in the world in terms of core patents, and obtains about 1,500 patents every year, of course, mainly Internet patents.

Since Huaxia joined the WTO, patents have become the biggest difference between giants and nouveau riche.

No matter how difficult it is to acquire Apple in the future, Li Feiteng's purpose is to go for the word "patent".

When I bought Apple, I wanted to get the right to control and use Apple's patents.

Get Apple these numerous engineers.

Digging people is one thing, but the vicious digging of people has brought great internal injuries to Feiteng Electronics Group.

What's more, some people can't be invited if they don't pay a high price.

Ma Yun's Alibaba, there was not an eighteen Arhats at the beginning, and some of them had a salary of more than 100,000 US dollars for many years, but they followed Ma Yun to fight the world, gave up high salaries, and only got a few hundred yuan a month.

In fact, the people around Ma Yun at the beginning have now entered the board of directors of Alibaba and have become one of the many partners.

Of course, Li Feiteng's investment in Alibaba back then also liberated Alibaba's eighteen Arhats in advance, and many of these elite talents were also tapped by him to Taobao Group!

It must be stated here that Huaxia's e-commerce has been divided into three major companies: Taobao Group, Alibaba Group, and Google Mall.

Although Li Feiteng is an important partner and founder of the four major companies, he does not personally own the right to operate.

Private enterprises, listed companies, and multinational business organizations have developed to different stages. Li Feiteng's position and concept in the enterprise. It's very different.

Maybe three years ago. He can say that he is the boss of Alibaba Group, because he is a major shareholder.

However, when a company's assets reach more than one billion, billions, and become a multinational business organization, there is no concept of boss or not.

It can only be said that Li Feiteng is a shareholder and investor.

So. In a real sense, Li Feiteng is the founder of Google, the chairman of Google, and the largest shareholder of Google.

As for many other companies, he may also hold the position of chairman, but if he does not really fulfill his responsibilities and obligations, he is actually a shareholder and a venture capitalist.

At a certain stage, the shares are either sold at a high price in exchange for a profit. Either continue to hold or merge into the Google consortium.

In a word. The person who is really in charge of a company, the president who has the right to run it, and the person who leads the board of directors, is the most important person to the company.

Taobao Group is Liu Dongqiang, Alibaba is Ma Yun, and Google Mall is Li Feiteng.

No matter how much Li Feiteng controls now, in fact, with the efforts of Liu Dongqiang and Ma Yun, they will eventually achieve great success.

It's just that he is a person who ultimately shares the fruits, and if Ma Yun can make $20 billion, then he will have to hand over $6 billion to Li Feiteng, which is the price he must pay for equity.

Li Feiteng only needs to control one degree, one degree that everyone is satisfied with, otherwise Ma Yun and Liu Dongqiang will not be happy, and if they leave the company and choose to stand on their own, it will be very troublesome.

Therefore, it is impossible for even the reborn to earn all the money.

……

In a hotel in San Francisco.

Li Feiteng and Ying Tiancheng have already disembarked and settled here with jet lag.

The two lived in a presidential suite.

It's certainly not about saving money, it's about having a particularly good relationship.

Yingtiancheng is a veteran from Feiteng Computer Technology Company, and has successively served as a generation of president positions in Qingmu, Longteng, and Feiteng Technology.

Now he is the chairman of the board of directors of the listed company "Feiteng Technology Group" and one of the twelve directors of Google.

Yingtiancheng's annual salary is already 2 million US dollars, and as for the value brought by equity stocks, it has resolutely reached 1.3 billion RMB.

It can be said that following Li Feiteng to fight the world is already a successful person.

Compared with other veterans, Li Feiteng values Ying Tiancheng more.

Ying Tiancheng does not have the strength and capital to succeed in entrepreneurship, but he has loyalty and loyalty to Li Feiteng.

Brother, after so many years, there are very few veterans who can stay around Li Feiteng.

Either they lack the ability, quit their jobs and leave, sell their shares, become multimillionaires, and enjoy life.

Either they are still in important positions in the company and are still paying.

And there are really very few people who are directly promoted, enter the board of directors, and begin to be responsible for investment and spending money for Li Feiteng.

Ying Tiancheng is the person responsible for spending money on Li Feiteng.

It seems that the work is very simple and easy, you only need to follow Li Feiteng's orders and run errands with money to do something.

But it seems simple, but it's not that easy.

In fact, you need communication skills, solid character, professional skills, management skills, investment skills, and so on.

Ying Tiancheng's age is also approaching 40 years old, and his stable and reliable loyal character, as well as his comprehensive outstanding ability, must be the factor for Li Feiteng to use him.

As for the others, it's really hard to say anything.

Li Feiteng's company definitely has a lot of talents, and the team around him is also very large.

However, intimately, in fact, there are only two teams, Ru Lynch and Ying Tiancheng.

From a business point of view, family, friendship, and love are all unstable elements, and the combination of interests seems to be more solid.

Therefore, Li Feiteng only retains a little bit of instability, mostly based on interests, and hopes for the public.

After all, there are too many people behind him. (To be continued......)
