Chapter 305: Domineering Apple
At the Hilton Hotel, inside the gauze tent, there were four people cooking at this time, and there was a lot of food on the table at this time, but only one person was eating. Moreover, the food on the table was rapidly decreasing at a number of degrees visible to the naked eye, and the faces of the Jobs couple changed from a little dark to surprised and abrupt!
Nikki was actually a little embarrassed at first, especially seeing Helen's slightly darkened face. She knew what Helen was thinking, and she, a highly educated person, would certainly not do such a humiliating thing. But she didn't want to explain it for a while, in fact, in her heart, she couldn't help but want to see the surprised appearance of the two, it must be very funny!
Sure enough, as expected, she knew that Jessie Chou didn't like to be disturbed when she was eating, and if she ate slowly, it would be okay, she could chat while eating. But if he eats fast, then it is better not to disturb him, and his temper will not be too good at this time.
Seeing the surprised look of the two this time, the little darkness in Nikki's heart got a very satisfying release. "I'm sorry, Jesse eats a little too much, I hope you don't get weird. And when he eats quickly, he doesn't like to get through. She said to the two of them after helping Jesse Chou hand over a fried steak.
"We're a little, uh, surprised!" Helen paused again as she spoke.
Jobs was the same, but it only surprised him, he hadn't seen anyone in his life. But it's the first time I've seen someone who is so rich, so able to eat, and has his stature.
Jessie Chou, who was eating, had actually seen the appearance of a few people for a long time, 'Hehe...... Sure enough, people's quirks are a weapon that can be forced! Think about how clever I was when I first thought of eating quickly, I didn't like to be disturbed! ’
Seeing that the heat was almost over, and he had eaten a lot of the food he brought over, Jessie Chou picked up the tablecloth and wiped his mouth. "It's really rude, I'm full, you guys eat more, the food served today is very good, and the taste is really good!"
Helen swallowed as she disguised herself, "I think we've already felt the charm of the delicious food you're talking about." However, still want to xiexie your compliments! ”
Seeing that Jesse Chou still had some doubts when he heard Helen's words, Jobs said lightly: "Helen participated in the decision of today's food, especially the pasta you like, which Helen provided in an Italian restaurant she liked." ”
"Oh" Jesse nodded: "Xiexie, great food!" ”
Helen smiled happily when she heard this, and she couldn't help but have a lot more affection for Jesse Chou. Years later, she could recall the first time she saw the legend, his quick eating, and his words of praise. She couldn't help but sigh that sometimes fate is so strange.
After a few chats about food, they turned to the main topic this time. Jobs said to Jesse Chou seriously: "Jesse, I have seen your investment ratio, I have to say that I am still very happy to have someone who trusts Apple so much, but I can ask, what makes you have such confidence in Apple?" ”
Jesse Chou actually wanted to say at this time, 'Do you think someone will tell you, I came back in time, and I also know that when Apple was at its peak, the stock price had risen to more than $700, what kind of concept is this Nima, when my brother bought it, it was only $14, even if I bought it later, and raised the average price to $16.00." ’
But compared to the mountain-like $700 or so, the price of buying that would be nothing at all. To that extent, this has to be several times the profit, I have invested so much money, when the time comes to sell the stock, it is called a refreshing. ’
Jessie Chou tidied up, looked at him opposite him with those black eyes, and said seriously and seriously: "It's you, Steve. Jobs. ”
"Me?" Jobs felt a little surprised, and on that calm face, he couldn't help but be a little surprised at this time. But in fact, it makes sense. But he still couldn't help asking, "Weishenme?" ”
Seeing this person who was almost a myth in his previous life exuding such a strange and questioning expression in front of him, Zhou Jiexi was a little excited in his heart. "Huh...... It's a really good feeling, especially the feeling of fooling around with this 'historical celebrity'. ”
Jessie Chou smiled, a big and very bright smile, with the wanton publicity of a young man. Uninhibited. This can't help but remind Steve Jobs of the years when he founded Apple, when he faced many investors, and he was so confident and young! Youth is always remembered.
"I remember at the end of the millennium, the CEO of Dell, Michael Brown. Dell once commented on the precarious Apple company, 'If I were at Apple, I would shut down this company and give the money back to the shareholders.'" That's the best description of Apple's dire situation at the time. ”
"But you didn't, no matter what people from the outside world say, you Steve. Jobs persevered. I remember if I had bought $10,000 of Apple stock since 2001, it would have been worth $994,570 by this year, which is more than 90 times that number! Jesse Chou looked at the people who were doing it as he spoke, and Zuihou fixed his eyes on Jobs.
"Indeed!" Jobs said slowly, but he didn't say anything, and he could tell that it was just Jesse Chou laying the groundwork.
"Huh...... What's more, by October of this year, Apple had dominated the MP3 Walkman market, reaching almost 80 percent of the market, and also generated a profit of $26.7 billion. In my opinion, though, these are just the beginning! Jesse Chou was a little surprised when he said this, and several people around him were obviously stunned for a moment.
'Ignorant mortals' Thinking of this sentence of Colonel Chu, it is really cool to say!
"Apple is now mature and moving to a higher level, and in my opinion, it is a matter of time before it surpasses Google." Jessie Chou said this sentence in the eyes of several people, you must know that Google's Lion stock price is now more than 400 and almost 500 US dollars a share. Apple is still hovering around the key card of 100 and 200, which is compared to Google, so those shareholders and shareholders must not have a carnival!
But Jobs is not an ordinary person, and when he heard Jessie Chou's words, his eyes couldn't help but flash a glimmer of light. In his heart, he originally wanted to surpass Google, but also surpass other companies on the market, and this is just the beginning!
Although it was just for a moment, the light in Jobs's eyes was still captured by Jesse Chou. He couldn't help but smile in his heart, and after preparing the wording, Jesse Zhou continued: "Apple is very good at expanding new business, remember that the popularity of iPod has promoted the popularization of mp3 players, Apple saw a business opportunity, bound iPod and iTunes software, and established Apple02Store, paid music downloads, and achieved great success." ”
"This success has brought huge benefits to the company, and the platform has also brought a lot of benefits to countless musicians and music companies, and it has also stifled the rise of piracy." Speaking of which, Jessie Chou is really admired, Lao Mei's copyright awareness is really nothing to say.
This is in the piracy of the rampant Celestial Empire Zhou Jesse can only be speechless, Western music has achieved benign development because of the lack of piracy. In this way, musicians have bread and make music more attentively, but the Celestial Empire is getting worse and worse in this regard, and the writing really has no connotation. Even the saliva songs written are not as good as others, and the songs written by zuihou a great celestial dynasty are not as good as the little bit big stick country.
Of course, this is not only musical, but also movies, TV series, books, etc., a whole lot of things. 'Well, Jessie Chou feels that sometimes he thinks a little too great, saying that he also watched piracy in his previous life, and he watched a lot of pirated versions in the Celestial Empire, and the aiqing action movies in the island country are also pirated, as if he hasn't bought the genuine version! ’
Getting back to the point, a few people at the table continued to listen to Jesse Chou said: "Apple has pre-installed the Mac operating system on the iMac computer, and successfully entered the operating system market through a simple and beautiful interface and high execution efficiency, which has changed people's concept of using computers and won people's love." ”
"In 07 years, Apple entered the mobile phone market and launched the iPhone, with its stylish appearance and powerful functions and novel and concise operation, which immediately had a huge impact on the mobile phone market, which caused the trend of smart phones."
In 08, Apple launched the netbook MacBook02Air, which caused a netbook boom since then, with its sleek and thin design. In 09, Apple continued its efforts and launched the tablet iPad, opening up a whole new market for electronics. ”
Jesse Chou said one by one about Apple's success in recent years, and even Helen knew that this person seemed to have a good study of Apple. Speaking of which, I really want to thank Harvey, Jessie Zhou put the information he provided in the space, and when he couldn't think of what to say just now, he opened the information in the space, looked at it and said to everyone.
There's a lot more that he didn't say, and he's going to say to Steve Jobs now, 'Apple will break Nokia's position as the No. 1 seller in sales for fifteen consecutive years and become the world's No. 1 mobile phone manufacturer.'" Zuihou's Lokia mobile phone business is almost scrapped.
After 2011, Apple's market value will surpass ExxonMobil and become the world's most valuable listed company. In 2012, Apple surpassed HP to become the world's largest computer manufacturer.
With this series of numbers, how does Jesse Chou not have confidence in Apple? Of course he was full of confidence!
