Tim Cook, a dignified Apple vice president, would do such a humiliating thing in order to comfort his overtime colleagues, this kind of company atmosphere is really enviable......

While Wu Wei and Xu Zhen were both sighing and feeling excited to see Jobs, the reality was that they were extremely disappointed, and they were taken to a cubicle in a large open office in the corner of the building, and the only person in charge of discussing investment with them was an investment manager wearing a red T-shirt and thinning hair......

"Welcome, Mr. Li of Luen Mei Company, right? I'm an investment advisor to Apple, Eddie Bonn. The fat investment manager, who was eating a hamburger, wiped his hands and shook hands with Xu Zhen.

"No...... No...... This is our boss......" Xu Zhen explained in his broken English.

"Oh...... I'm sorry, but I really didn't expect the chairman of Luen Mei to be so young. Eddie shook hands with Li Xiaole awkwardly and looked at him, and was surprised that this Asian kid who looked like a high school student turned out to be the boss of Luen Mei.

After a brief greeting, Eddie asked Li Xiaole and the three of them to sit in a metal office chair, and then took out a stack of documents from the filing cabinet himself, looked at them carefully, and said slowly:

"Hmm...... Your company is here to apply for jishu support, you are very discerning, we Apple company has dabbled in technology and movies 3D jishu, we need to follow the procedure to review whether your company's performance and concept are consistent with our company's image...... You will need to fill out some forms and submit some legal documents, and we will be able to get back to you after 90 business days. ”

Wu Wei and Xu Zhen were suddenly depressed when they heard this, it turned out that what Li Xiaole said had already made an appointment, but they only made a preliminary application to Apple...... There was no agreement at all, and the three of them came all the way to fill out the looks?

"I think you're mistaken, Mr. Add." Li Xiaole shook his head calmly and said: "We are not here to apply for unilateral jishu support, but to apply for cooperation with Apple formula jishu, I think the two of us have common pursuits in many fields, and we can learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses......"

As soon as Li Xiaole said this, not only was Eddie's face stunned, but even Wu Wei and Xu Zhen couldn't wait to find a hole to drill into...... Our boss is usually quite normal, but today this is really blowing to the sky...... It was said that our company and Apple can learn from each other's strengths......

Although Black Pearl's jishu R&D capabilities are not bad, compared to Apple, it is the difference between elementary school students and postdoctoral fellows, even in the field of 3D films, which they are most proud of, but they are all led by Jobs after acquiring Pixar Animation......

Li Xiaole, the chairman of Luen Mei Company, is okay to fool others, who was once the former chairman and CEO of Pixar Animation, who was once a big name in the industry...... It's a bit too much of a joke.

"That's Mr. Li, you may have misunderstood." Eddie also put away his gentle smile at this time, and his expression became a lot more serious:

"I think you must know that our CEO Steve Jobs developed the jishu R&D department on 3D production, but this department is not yet a profitable department, and it is not jointly developed with other companies......"

Eddie originally thought that Lianmei Company wanted to talk about Jishu support, that is, to spend money to ask Apple's Jishu personnel to help Lianmei solve the Jishu problem in the post-production of the film, so he received them as customers, but he didn't expect Li Xiaole to plan to empty the white wolf, which is really a bit insulting to his IQ.

You must know that Apple Formula, as a cutting-edge technology development company, every year countless young entrepreneurs come with their own research and development of innovative products, hoping that Apple will help them develop projects, but no one has ever dared to say that it is: "learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses with Apple...... I am afraid that the only ones who are qualified to negotiate cooperation with Apple are giant groups at the level of Microsoft, Intel, and Samsung.

A mere Chinese kid who doesn't know where he came from is so ashamed, which really makes Eddie feel a little inexplicably angry.

"No, I'm not talking about the cooperation in the movie jishu, I'm talking about the development of mobile phones." Li Xiaole looked at Eddie calmly, and then took out the mold Xu Zhen and them made before from his bag.

"Cell phone?" Eddie's eyebrows jumped obviously, he didn't think Li Xiaole's topic was very special, but their Apple company was working on a secret research and development project, which was about mobile phones, for this reason, Eddie couldn't refuse Li Xiaole in one go.

Eddie reached out and took the mold, fiddling with it curiously, and after looking at it for a long time, he also found the existence of a keyboard, and saw their Apple logo on the back, and felt very strange in his heart, frowning and asking:

"Why is there no numeric keypad...... Do you want to use a remote control, or a stylus?" Steve Jobs led the mobile phone development department, and everything was kept secret from the outside world, and he, the investment manager, didn't know much about it.

"No, it's a touch screen, and you can operate it with your fingers." Li Xiaole explained.

"Touchscreen? This kind of jishu is very inconvenient in control, it requires the pressure of fingers, and the loss of the mobile phone is also very large, and the function is not as good as the physical keyboard, and the customer experience is much worse......" Eddie frowned and said a little disapprovingly.

"Of course, you also need supporting software to solve some problems, here is the conceptual design of the software, you can take a look at it first." Li Xiaole took out a stack of design drawings from his bag, these are the information of the IOS system that Xu Zhen wrote down from his memory when making the mold, he bought an iphone4s in his previous life, and he also couldn't put it down for a while, during the time of Jobs's death, he was also fooled by the media to watch Jobs' various press conferences on the Internet, trying to understand where Jobs and the iphone are awesome, so he has a good understanding of this mobile phone.

Eddie took the drawing, frowned and looked at it for a long time, he was not a jishu person, he really didn't understand this kind of thing, looked up and saw that Li Xiaole was staring at him without giving him a chance to dodge, and he could only sigh and say:

"Please wait a minute, I'll show these things to my colleagues in the R&D department, and then I'll come back and give you an answer."

Seeing Eddie carrying the folder under his armpit and leaving the office hall with an unhappy expression, Wu Wei also looked at Li Xiaole with a puzzled face and asked, "Boss, do you usually like to do software design for mobile phones?" ”

"Well, just do it......" Li Xiaole said casually.

Wu Wei was speechless for a while, although his boss is very good at 3D design, but what does this have to do with mobile phone software......? These are two realms entirely...... You can make a software by doing it casually, and this boss is too idle.

At this time, Jonathan Yves, Apple's chief designer of mobile phones, was touching his forehead in the R&D room for an electronic instrument, anxiously adjusting various jishu problems that were developing a new mobile phone, and at this time he received a call from Eddie, which made him very angry, and he couldn't help but complain to himself:

"Damn, there is more than a year left, this project is about to come out, there are still hundreds of jishu problems waiting for me to deal with, these idiots from the investment department are still bothering us, this day is simply not happening."

Jonathan walked out of the R&D room while scolding, and saw the chubby Eddie panting over to this side, placing a stack of papers on his desk.

"What is this?" Jonathan asked impatiently, buttoning his scalp.

"A strange guy came, saying that he was going to cooperate with our jishu department, this is the mobile phone mold he made and the supporting software materials, I think it may be useful to the R&D department, so I took it." Eddie also looked a little helpless.

"Add, don't you know that the phones that Steve made us make are completely different from the ones on the market? We don't need other mobile phones to cooperate......" Jonathan took the papers irritably, threw them in the trash without even looking at them.

"Alright, I'll just send him away......" Eddie pouted, which was also a matter of course, and turned back depressedly.

"Add~ Don't forget to bring this back." Jonathan frowned and picked up the mold on the table and handed it over, and Eddie was turning over to take it, only to see Jonathan take his hand back.

"Wait." Jonathan felt the unusual touch of the mobile phone, and was a little surprised, and flipped the mold over to see that he was stunned, just now the mobile phone was placed on the back, he only saw the back, and now he saw the screen with only one "home" button and no numeric keypad, and immediately his eyes were straight.

"What's wrong, Jonathan?" Add asked, for some reason.

"This phone, this phone, is very similar to the project we are developing......" Jonathan turned around and opened his mouth wide, directly stepped forward two steps forward and grabbed Eddie's arm and asked, "What else did that person say, did he say what did he use to operate this phone?" ”

"He's ridiculous, he said it's a touch screen, operate it directly with his fingers, this guy is a layman at all, he's a film company, where will he make a mobile phone......" Eddie didn't react a little, and directly said what he thought in his heart.

Jonathan's face changed on the spot, and he began to fantasize about various possibilities in his mind, and immediately thought of the worst ending, and exclaimed lightly: "My God~~ This guy must have stolen our R&D data to blackmail us...... No, I'm going to see him. ”

Jonathan's heart is beating at the moment, if the project they have been developing for many years is leaked, the loss will not only be hundreds of millions of dollars in R&D funds, but more importantly, it will hit Apple's future development strategy, the consequences are so serious that he can't think about it.

"Eddie~ You go to the security department, wait for me to stabilize them, you quickly bring someone to control them." Jonathan hurried halfway before he remembered to turn around and tell Eddie, and then rushed to the office hall of the investment department in a hurry......
