Silicon Valley, California, USA. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Apple Headquarters.
Apple's CEO's office is full of modern elements.
Several of Apple's top executives are chatting.
Apple CEO Scott. Fox leaned back on his desk, propped up the desk with his left hand and a cup of coffee in his right hand, he took a sip of coffee and said, "The Chan Royal Family Asset Management Committee acquired Nokia's mobile phone business from Microsoft just an hour ago, what did we do about it?" ”
When it comes to Nokia mobile phones, everyone is full of feelings, once the king of mobile phones, since 1996, Nokia's global mobile phone sales have occupied the first market share for 14 consecutive years, in the face of the rise of new operating systems of smart phones, Nokia's position as the world's first mobile phone sales in the second quarter of 2011 was surpassed by Apple and Samsung.
The ending of Nokia mobile phones is embarrassing.
On September 3, 2013, Microsoft announced that it would acquire Nokia's Devices & Services division (Nokia's mobile phone business) for approximately 5.44 billion euros and license the relevant patents and brands.
On April 25, 2014, Nokia announced the completion of the mobile phone business transaction with Microsoft Corporation, officially exiting the mobile phone market.
Microsoft, the software giant, can't bring Nokia's mobile phone business back to life.
According to Microsoft's financial report released in 2015, Microsoft's mobile device division wrote down $7.6 billion in the fourth quarter of last year, which is almost equivalent to the total number of Nokia's mobile phone business and mobile patents.
Just now, the news caused a shock in the global mobile phone industry, the Chen royal family asset management committee bought Nokia's mobile phone business from Microsoft for $22.7 billion, as well as a large patent portfolio, as well as the mobile phone operating system Windows 12.
What did Chen Yan want to do.
This is the question of all mobile phone manufacturers in the world, you know, the smartphone industry is like a sea of blood, Huawei, three \ 1 star, Apple occupies half of the mobile phone industry, and the mobile phone operating system has IOS and Android.
Chen Yan's acquisition of Microsoft's Nokia mobile phone business, if you want to reach Huawei, three \ 1 star, Apple's status in the global mobile phone industry, I am afraid it is very difficult, but just want to reach the status of second-tier mobile phone manufacturers, for example, LG, Lenovo, it makes no sense to spend $22.7 billion on mobile phones.
Moreover, with Windows 12, which is not famous, it is possible to start a new camp in addition to IOS and Android and become a third camp.
However, Apple does not think so, and Apple has already felt the cold winter in advance.
Nokia mobile phone is in the hands of Nokia, and the hundred-legged worm has stiffened.
Microsoft's acquisition of Nokia's mobile phone business has proved that it has not succeeded in bringing Nokia mobile phones back to life in the hands of Microsoft.
However, the Nokia mobile phone is in the hands of Chen Yan, so Apple, Samsung and Huawei should be extremely vigilant and pay attention to it.
Although Apple ranks first in market capitalization, Huawei's market value is also more than 100 billion US dollars, Samsung is known as the Samsung empire in South Korea, referring to the Chen Royal Family Asset Management Committee, Apple, Samsung, and Huawei are all going to make a fuss, some media say that Chen Yan controls two empires, one is Chen Guo, the other is the Chen Royal Family Asset Management Committee, business empire, Forbes magazine counts the assets controlled by the Chen Royal Family Asset Management Committee, in trillions of dollars.
That is, Chen Yan decided to get involved in the mobile phone industry, if Chen Yan is determined to push Nokia mobile phones to the top, then Samsung, Huawei, and Apple must be prepared enough.
Apple's Senior Vice President, Kevin. Tim said, "There is no countermeasure, because Chen Yan has just acquired Nokia's mobile phone business, integrated Nokia's mobile phone resources, business, patents, and reached cooperation with mobile phone parts manufacturers and foundries, and then, it will take at least one and a half years to launch the first mobile phone, what we need to do tomorrow is to stabilize Apple's stock price, and the last thing to do is to make our mobile phone products better." ”
Scott nodded.
At this time, another senior vice president of Apple, John . "One thing we also need to pay attention to is that Chen Yan has also acquired Microsoft's Windows 12, and it will certainly not be as open as Android, there is no doubt about it."
Because, Android has made the open platform to the extreme, and most of the world's mobile phone manufacturers use the Android system.
No matter how good Windows 12 is, it can't shake the absolute dominance of Android.
Therefore, Windows 12 may be like our IOS, made into a closed mobile phone operating system, Apple and IOS, Nokia and Windows 12, high-end mobile phones to high-end mobile phones, in the mobile phone sales market, forming a comprehensive competition, eroding Apple's mobile phone sales share in the world. ”
Everyone is aware of this.
Scott curled his chin in an arc.
