Chapter 199: Apple

In the separate bedroom provided by Yale University, Link held a newspaper in his hand and looked at it silently.

Everything that happened during the day today seemed so boring to him.

Originally, I was going to give a speech on stage and enjoy the baptism of those 'top students'. However, since George W. Bush is here, others will naturally not steal the limelight from him. Therefore, the speech or something is just gone.

However, being able to meet the 'Joe Gang Leader' allowed him to accomplish a purpose for this purpose.

The future Apple will definitely be the hegemon in the electronics industry. The information in Link's head shows that Apple will become the world's largest company by market capitalization in 2012, which is simply terrifying.

"It's even more profitable than Microsoft? That's what I like, hehe. ”

In fact, Link had already made friends with Steve before he came. Jobs' mind. However, after some contact, this 'master of art in the field of electronics' is really a little unusual.

"Old fox, definitely old fox. There was an intriguing feeling between his words and deeds, what was the purpose of him inviting me to give a public lecture at Apple? ”

Link clearly knows that the businessman in this world, whether he is an evil capitalist, a philanthropic tycoon, or a newly-passed Steve. Jobs, these guys have their way to success. Everything you do is definitely well thought out.

"Being sold and counting money for others is definitely not my style."

But no matter how slippery Link is. It's still not as good as an old fox who has been crawling around for decades. After thinking about it for a long time, Link still couldn't understand that Steve. What was the purpose of Jobs?

Is it really just an invitation to give me a public lecture?

For this issue. Link was a little confused.

"But...... It doesn't seem to hurt me. Forget it, don't think about it, after getting to Apple, everything will be understood. Can he kidnap me? ”

Link shook his head and threw the strange thought away.

It's no wonder that Link doesn't trust Steve. Jobs, because the two of them had only met for the first time, even though Link was very familiar with him. Even his birth date and death date are very clear.

However, that's just media coverage.

Just look at Link himself, isn't he also praised by the media? But it is also not seen that Link is a true saint.

in this world. Where are there any saints?

After thinking for a while, Link felt bored. His eyes once again turned to the newspaper in his hand, and he directly skipped reports such as current political hotspots and sports events, and went directly to the entertainment section.

The headline immediately caught Link's attention: "J.K. Rowling's new book is coming out in the United States?" ”

Link frowned. He hadn't paid attention to J.K. Rowling in a while. Now he was a little surprised to see that the fourth part of her new book "Harry Potter" "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" was going to be released in North America.

Scanning the report slightly, the text reads: "Fantasy Queen J.K. Rowling's latest masterpiece, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, the fourth installment in the Gift Potter series, sold 8.4 million copies when it first appeared in the UK. J.K. Rowling will be in the U.S. to make a promotional tour for the launch of the book in North America......"

"Damn, what about the good one? Even without saying hello, it's already on the market? ”

Link pouted not without narcissism, he certainly remembered when he first started writing "The Twilight Saga". J.K. Rowling has also publicly stated that Link's new book will compete in the publishing market.

"Damn, I've done enough of the hype in the early stage. And then you want to pat your ass and throw me aside? Do you think Lao Tzu is easy to bully? Depend on! ”

Link grumbled as he rolled over to the computer. He first logged on to the CAA Media Group's internal website, entered the password, and downloaded the manuscript of "Twilight".

I flipped through it, took a few minutes to find a feeling, and then it was out of control.

He had been working on the manuscript of "Twilight - Twilight" for many days in a row, and now he was writing it with ease.

Especially after seeing that report, Link's competitive spirit skyrocketed again.

"My brother is hyping others, how can he ever be hyped up? This is absolutely unbearable. ”

A crackling sound began to echo through the room. "Twilight: Twilight" has already been written once, and this time it has been revised, so that he hardly needs any ideas, as long as the story is presented in the form of words.

It was another full night, and it wasn't until the last word was typed that Link breathed a sigh of relief.

I looked up the window and saw that it was already dawn. And "Twilight - Twilight" has also been written to the nineteenth chapter.

The full text of the first part of "Twilight" in "Twilight" has a total of twenty-five chapters and about 300,000 words, which is already a long novel.

Link is very familiar with this story and is very optimistic.

If there is only one work that can compete with "Harry Potter", it is only this "Twilight Zone".

"J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is ready to hit the market in early November, and I have every time to give her a fight."

It's early October, and the fourth episode of "Prison Break" will start tomorrow night, and he has less than a month to go.

However, with his current four times, it is estimated that the six chapters will be completed in less than a week.

The issue of publishing is even less of a problem, as CAA Media Group has already announced the 'All Entertainment Plan', and the publishing sector has been testing the waters for a long time.

The Walking Dead comic series, published earlier this year, is a good place to start.

"Aim to proofread and finalize the manuscript within a week, and then go all out to print, should I be at the buyer's printing company? And the question of propaganda, propaganda? Well, when I didn't say it. ”

Looking at the manuscript of the nineteenth chapter he had written, Link stood up with a smile on his face, moved his muscles slightly, and then fell straight into bed and fell asleep.

The easy thing of staying up late has long been accustomed to him.

At about eleven o'clock in the afternoon, Link got up and went to the student cafeteria of Yale University to eat, and chatted happily with many students.

When he learned that many of them were big fans of Prison Break, Link was even happier.

As soon as I got back to the dorm building, I saw Steve. Jobs was hesitating in front of the door, followed by a guy who looked like a bodyguard.

When he saw Link coming up the stairs, Steve. Jobs laughed at this time: "Mr. Link, so you just came back?" I thought you were still sleeping. ”

Link smiled a little awkwardly, it seemed that the other party had been waiting in front of the door for a while. However, this also made Link even more puzzled, what was the reason for this famous 'Joe Gang Leader' to come to him?

"Mr. Link, the tickets are ready, can we leave now?"

Sure enough, Steve. Jobs is indeed a little anxious and has already begun to urge.

"Oh, of course, I'm fine right now anyway. The fourth episode of "Prison Break" has also been filmed, and I still have plenty of time. ”

Link shrugged his shoulders, looking very relaxed, but in his heart he was looking forward to Apple's trip even more. He was expecting something to surprise him.

Anyway, Link didn't have anything to pack, so he hired a substitute driver to drive his car back, and then followed Steve. Jobs boarded a flight to Los Angeles.

Apple's headquarters are located in Cupertino, California, close to San Francisco and Los Angeles.

When the plane landed at Los Angeles International Airport, it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon, and Apple's car had been waiting for a long time.

Without any stops, Link followed Steve. Jobs got into the car and headed straight for the city of Cupertino.

In the spacious Lincoln sedan, Link and Steve. Jobs sat opposite each other. From the moment he got in the car, the other party kept calling, and Link didn't eavesdrop, picking up a glass of red wine and drinking it silently.

Casually looking at the space in the car, two of the latest Apple MacBook laptops are placed in front of the seats and are turned on, and the background is the logo of Apple, an apple that has been bitten.

"Is this the apple that God has bitten into the legend? Grandma's, it turns out that God is also a foodie. ”

Link casually tried the laptop, and sure enough, it felt that the performance was very good. Although there are still many gaps with the desktops used by CAA Media Group, it is easy to carry.

"It's a good thing, I should get one."

As soon as Link had the idea come to his mind, he listened to Steve next to him. Jobs laughed: "Is Mr. Link interested in computers too?" ”

Link glanced at him, then shook his head, "I'm not interested in computers, but I'm very interested in using computers and using them." ”

Steve. Jobs's eyes lit up, and he smiled: "Mr. Link can always say something profound, no wonder Fahrenheit Media has an unrivaled position in the Internet field." ”

Link thought he was just casually looking for a topic, but when he heard that Steve. When Jobs mentioned the 'Internet', Link seemed to have caught something, and gradually understood the other party's intention to come to him.

Soon, Apple's headquarters, which created legendary electronic products, arrived, and an office building with a very simple design came into view.

There is a conspicuous name plate standing at the gate, and the logo of an apple that has been bitten is very clear, and next to it is written: Apple Computer Co., Ltd.

When Link saw this, he suddenly said, "This name is not good, it has to be changed." (To be continued......)
