"Peter, I don't know why you think that. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoI chose not to develop an app for IOS, and it has nothing to do with the reason you said - how could you have such a misunderstanding?"

Li Ying's words were said lightly, as if the purest comrade-like misunderstanding between her and Peter Til was there.

Peter Tilt was stunned.

He thought that Li Ying would quibble, and would find all kinds of excuses to whitewash her hidden loyalty to Gu Cheng, but he just didn't think that Li Ying would directly deny and clear it head-on.

Although Peter Tiel could not understand this loyalty. Because in his opinion, Li Ying should be a grasshopper on a rope with him: in so many businesses in the YY department, both of them only hold shares of YY.com, and have nothing to do with YY Electronics or even YY's Asian business;

There's no way, who lets the road to a woman's heart have to go through **.

After recovering his taste, Peter Till asked with a grin: "Then you tell me, what is the reason why you have been refusing to develop the IOS version of YY Network, YY International Edition and YY Cloud Music Client?"

Li Ying also had enough of the tone, and didn't want to catch cat and mouse anymore, so she said solemnly:

"IT'S BECAUSE I DON'T THINK YY SHOULD BE SUBJECT TO ANY CONTENT CENSORSHIP OTHER THAN THE GOVERNMENT OF THE COUNTRY WHERE IT OPERATES - I HAVE READ THE ENTRY RULES OF THE APP-STORE, AND ALL APPS LAUNCHED ON THE APP-STORE MUST BE REVIEWED BY APPLE.

And this audit isn't just for major security issues that could lead to system crashes. We will not accept any non-government supervision type of fingering, it's as simple as that. ”

Peter Till didn't react at once, and it seemed that it would take a few seconds to digest Li Ying's words just now.

He didn't expect it to be the reason for this, because it was a very trivial matter, and he hadn't even noticed these trivial terms before.

Taking advantage of Peter Thiel's stunned moment, Li Ying quickly added: "When we launched YY network on PC computers, including YY international version and cloud music, did Microsoft review our products?"

No, Microsoft will want us to spend $1,500 per driver for WHQL's driver digital certification when YY's electronic hardware products are plugged into Windows computers.

And even if it is not WHQL digital driver certification, on the WIN-XP system and VISTA/WIN7 32-bit system, Microsoft will only remind users that 'the security of the driver is unknown, whether to continue to install', rather than completely blocking.

How old is Apple? Microsoft doesn't dare to review the software that users run on Windows, so why should Apple review us? Since we want to review it, we won't log in. ”

Li Ying's words were so loud that people listened to the illusion of arrogance.

What are the core values and spirit of the Internet?

It's freedom.

The Internet is made for freedom.

What is the greatest freedom for a user, that is, as long as he does not endanger the safety of others, he has absolute free will to choose the software he wants to use.

The essence of freedom is free will, the carrier of free will, which is generally considered to have two major modes of expression in the Western free world: the electorate, and the consumer.

Therefore, every voter should know who he wants to vote for, his will should be free, and his expression of his will should not be restricted or threatened. What each consumer wants to buy and consume is completely determined by himself, which is what he deserves for his money, and it is the performance that the customer is God.

What's more, on a freer Internet?

Come to think of it, many people often "don't pay protection fees" because of a "361 security guard" (to be precise, they don't pay 361 to certify software security, and the principle is actually similar to Microsoft's WHQL certification fee).

Then 361 Security Guard gives an orange window that says "The security of the software you want to install is unknown, whether to proceed with the installation". There are so many consumers who scold 361 (or scold Tengyun Computer Butler):

"Paralyzed, I killed Lao Tzu's game modifier/crack/sinicization package/MOD/DIY mini-game by mistake!"

"Uninstall 361 and you have to crack it! If you want to crack it, you still need 361, and you can do it yourself. ”

However, Microsoft and 361 are not yet mandatory to exclude consumers from using unaudited/certified software.

WHEN IT COMES TO APPLE, IT IS DIRECTLY CHANGED TO "IT CANNOT BE USED ON IPHONE WITHOUT APPLE'S REVIEW", AND IT IS DIRECTLY BANNED OUTRIGHT.

Banning suppliers, that's a business partnership, and as long as both parties accept it, there's nothing to say. Apple can also say "it was the other party who agreed".

BUT THERE IS NO LEGAL BASIS FOR RESTRICTING CONSUMER FREEDOM - WHEN APPLE SELLS IPHONES, IT DOES NOT SIGN A CONTRACT WITH CONSUMERS LIKE PRE-INSTALLED SOFTWARE ON COMPUTERS, AND "IF YOU CLICK TO CONTINUE INSTALLING, IT MEANS THAT YOU ACCEPT THE FOLLOWING OVERLORD CLAUSE".

What's more, if Apple doesn't let unapproved content be released just to "protect copyright", that's fine. The problem is that he is just carrying all kinds of private goods under the guise of protecting copyright and preventing piracy, so he can't bear it.

……

Li Ying did not explain this big truth in detail.

Everyone is an understanding person, and a few words of justification can be seen.

Peter Thiel was dumbfounded when he saw Li Ying take out the big hat of "consumer free will", which is the foundation of the Western free world.

That kind of politically incorrect to the point of exploding, even if it is for the sake of equity interests, he can't say it.

Moreover, the positioning of YY.com, and the reason why it was split from Renren in the first place, wasn't it in the name of "allowing users in the Western world to speak freely" that the FLAG was erected?

SIMILAR TO FACEBOOK'S FLAG IN ANOTHER TIME AND SPACE, FACEBOOK HAS ALWAYS BOASTED THAT IT DOES NOT ACCEPT CONTENT REGULATION, AND ACTS AS A FIG LEAF FOR ITS INABILITY TO ENTER THE CHINESE MARKET.

If Peter Thiel compromised on this, he wouldn't be able to say anything. (Although Zuckerberg in another time and space ignored this problem very critically, other bigwigs also ignored it, and BAT has developed an IOS version, so this can only be said that everyone didn't expect it, and they didn't want to make a bird)

If Li Ying hadn't mentioned this, he would still be able to get through. Li Ying mentioned it, then there was no way.

Jobs hadn't spoken again since he was rejected by Li Ying before, and had been waiting for Peter Thiel to help put pressure. HE ALSO HOPES THAT THROUGH THIS KIND OF NEGOTIATION TECHNIQUE, LI YING WILL HAVE THE ILLUSION THAT "IF YOU TRADE WITH GU CHENG PY AGAIN, EVEN YY.COM WILL RESIST PUBLISHING THE APP ON THE APP-STORE, AND EVEN YOUR SHAREHOLDERS WILL UNITE AGAINST YOU".

That expectation was dashed, and Jobs had to return to the game himself.

This time, he changed his tone to sing red-faced:

"Miss Li, I think there is a big misunderstanding here. Our audits are only done to ensure system security, such as software leaks, defragmentation anomalies, and the user's phone becoming more and more stuck – for the good of consumers, who are willing to accept this protection.

AND SO FAR, WE HAVEN'T HEARD OF A SINGLE INCIDENT WHERE CONSUMERS WANT TO USE A CERTAIN MOBILE APP ON THEIR IPHONE BUT CAN'T USE IT BECAUSE OF THE APP-STORE'S MODERATION SYSTEM. Even if the software developer is reluctant to develop an IOS version, we will try to recommend products with similar functions to consumers to ensure that consumers are satisfied as much as possible - this is a father's recommendation. ”

Paternal recommendation, the most hypocritical mantra of Jobs' life.

He has always used this phrase to hide his arrogance, as well as Apple's arrogance when it encountered the product "XX Gate" incident.

For example, the "Apple antenna door" incident that broke out in the next 10 years, IPHONE4/4S because of the flaws in the design of the new generation of metal middle frame antennas, resulting in a large reduction in the antenna signal when the user holds the mobile phone and can hardly be received.

(Popular science radio common sense: the antenna must not form a closed loop in order to send and receive radio, if it is closed or short-circuited, it is not "wireless" electricity.) IPHONE4 the problem at that time was that the metal middle frame antenna itself was not designed to be closed, and there was a gap, but when the user's hand held this part tightly, the hand would also conduct electricity, so the antenna was closed. ）

At that time, Apple's tough attitude was: refuse to apologize! Please hold your phone in the correct posture!

Among Jobs's three views, he loves consumers the most. If the consumer feels uncomfortable, it is because the consumer is too innocent to understand his "fatherly good intentions".

Of course, under normal circumstances, Steve Jobs would not have said such blatant defiance of free will as a "paternal recommendation" at a press conference or in public.

He only speaks at Apple's internal meetings, usually when he needs to be autocratic.

At this moment, in this situation, he said this sentence to Li Ying, which was obviously a threat of both soft and hard: "I will give consumers a fatherly recommendation, if YY.com or Renren or YY is shameless, then we don't mind processing APP technologies such as FaceChat or QQ or Twitter to the top of the APP-STORE download list." ”

If you don't play, Apple will let "similar products" play.

It turns out that Mr. Jobs called rape free will paternal good intentions. It was an eye-opener for me today. Just when Jobs was expecting Li Ying to be threatened to give in, she said something like this,

"Of course, the user has the right to 'not care what you provide him' - if the user has to care, it is not a 'right', but an obligation, and the right can be voluntarily waived.

However, you actually think that consumers should not have the right to make absolute independent choices by saying that some people have voluntarily given up their rights, and this is not a mentally weak remark that does not even possess basic legal knowledge?"

Does the fact that some people give up their rights and some people don't care about them means that such rights are universally dispensable?

What absurd logic this is.

The arrogance in Jobs's bones was thoroughly enraged.

He has always felt that although Li Ying has some skills and some achievements, after all, it is because of people.

Although Gu Cheng has completely withdrawn from the management of YY.com, he is at ease a shareholder, and all the shareholders of Peter Thiel are combined, and the equity is no smaller than Gu Cheng.

But in Jobs's heart, he always believed that the biggest credit for the success of YY was Gu Cheng's. Li Ying is just an excellent manager, operator and mediator.

Today, if it weren't for the advance arrangement and the fact that Peter Thiel was on his side, he thought that he was sure that he would have done his best to bring Li Ying to his knees, and he would not have personally come to participate in this kind of negotiation.

Even if the market value of YY is now as much as two or three billion US dollars.

According to the convention, this kind of business is usually handled by Jobs's people, and at most Tim Cook is sent.

Unexpectedly, the persuasion that he thought he was absolutely sure of met a guy who was even more arrogant and admitted death than him, and he came back.
