"My boss, Mr. Wen Ming, asked me a question when I first joined Apple."

Donnas, as the head of Apple's current R&D department, presided over Apple's product launch conference with an excited face. In Microsoft, although his rank is high, there is nothing for him on such occasions.

"That's desktop computers and laptops, what do you need?"

No one answered this question at the scene, and compared to Apple's previous product launch conference, the participants at this conference site have been raised by a level, both in terms of number and the energy represented by these people.

Donnas, who didn't get a response or was in a hurry, continued: "I don't understand much about desktop computers, because I think desktop computers should be the same as those desktop computers on the market today. ”

"But with regard to laptops, I raised two needs. The first is the need for extreme portability, and I once told my boss Wen Ming that the iPad can almost be called the most portable computer product. The second need is to be able to meet the needs of a day's work, in my opinion, all laptop products on the market at present cannot meet this need, so Starbucks will have a charger interface under the coffee table. ”

When Donus presided over the press conference, Wen Ming sat in the audience and laughed, originally he should have presided over the launch of this new product. However, he was really busy right now, so he was ready to leave the scene before the product launch actually started.

"Why don't you keep looking?"

Sith whispered a question beside Wen Ming.

Wen Ming shook his head and said, "I have already made the opening remarks, and I have already greeted the key guests, so there is no point in staying." It can only be said that the time is very unfortunate. ”

Sith didn't persuade him again, and he also knew that the interests represented by Wen Ming's current business were not as good as those represented by Apple's new products. However, it can be of great help to Wenming in other aspects.

Making money is only one aspect, but connections and relationships are also very important.

Donus on stage didn't know that his boss was ready to leave, and continued on stage: "Based on these two needs, my boss led our Apple research team to design and manufacture two new computer products. ”

"The first one is an all-in-one desktop, which we call an iMac. The second product is the laptop, the thinnest and lightest laptop product ever, the longest battery life laptop product ever under the same usage conditions, we call it the MacBook-Air. ”

……

When Donus began to explain Apple's two new products and amazed the audience who came to the press conference, Wen Ming greeted several distinguished guests again and then left the press conference.

Important guests include Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg and Microsoft's Bill Gates. Compared with Mark Zuckerberg, who is constantly amazed by Apple's two new computers, Microsoft's Mr. Bill Gates is not very good.

Because the system used by these two computer products is not the INDOS system that Microsoft has monopolized the global computer system market, but the OX system independently developed by Apple.

Therefore, Wen Ming, who had just left the press conference site and sat in his bulletproof car under the protection of security personnel, received a text message from Mr. Bill Gates.

"Will this system be sold?"

One sentence made Wen Ming laugh, Bill Gates was worried, he couldn't even wait for Donus to announce the news at the press conference, and directly found Wen Ming and asked.

can make Bill Gates so nervous, which shows how good Apple's new computer system is.

"We are selling computers and giving away systems, not buying our computers, we will not send systems, and we will not sell systems."

Within a few seconds of replying to this message, Wen Ming received a reply from Bill Gates.

"I think you're actually selling systems and giving away computers."

Wen Ming laughed, this point has long been public in another world, all of Apple's products are sold to the system and sent hardware. However, this does not affect the sales of Apple's products, because Apple's hardware and product design are really excellent.

Even if it is an iPhone series produced by a set of templates, there are still so many people around the world who are willing to pay, which can prove this.

Wen Ming didn't reply to the message, but began to think about what to do next.

A week and a half ago, Wen Ming demonstrated the power of the laser interception defense device 'guarding' in front of the Pentagon's inspection team, which aroused great attention from the Pentagon.

Being able to intercept missiles is already remarkable in itself, and the hit rate is so high that even if it only has this one function, the Pentagon will be willing to purchase this device.

What's more, the 'Guardian' can also hit a drone operated by professional technicians?

In modern warfare, UAVs are already a very important component, and the real advantage of UAVs over fighter jets is that they are unmanned. It's not just a matter of a few or hundreds of lives, even if it is difficult for professional fighter pilots to train, in terms of the global population base, it is actually not 'expensive'.

And the most important point is that without a pilot, the drone can make many difficult tactical maneuvers that the fighter pilot can't do, as long as the hardware allows. Even the best fighter pilots are not as accurate as computer programs.

Of course, there is no need to consider improvisation, because drones are actually manned. And because of the viewing angle, the big picture of remote operation is better than sitting inside the fighter.

In addition to difficult tactical maneuvers, drones also have the advantage of being able to show the extreme speed of human technology.

If the pilot is in a fighter jet, the speed of the fighter is too fast, then the human body cannot withstand it. But will drones face this problem?

No!

Based on this situation, all countries are investing a lot of manpower, material and financial resources to study drones, and the importance of being able to shoot down the 'protection' of drones so accurately is naturally even higher.

Wen Ming, who was sitting in the car and preparing to go to the airport, received a call from Teresa Roy.

"How's the preparation going?"

Teresa Roy had already arrived at the Pentagon first, and as a partner in Wenming Arms Company, he would definitely be present for a moment of negotiations. Moreover, compared to Wen Ming, he is familiar with some people in the Pentagon.

Wen Ming replied: "The final quotation has been sorted out, and if you can be sure that this call is not being monitored, I think I can tell you directly what the net profit margin is." ”

After the day's demonstration, the Pentagon placed an order for 10 'guards' at one time, which seems to be very small, but this is only the first order. Only the 'guard' that can be mass-produced, and the effect and function are not weakened, are worthy of large-scale procurement by the Pentagon.

At that time, Wen Ming's offer was not recognized by the Pentagon, and they felt that it was expensive.

Of course, it is also possible to ask for a sky-high price for arms and repay the money on the ground, and neither Wen Ming nor the Pentagon of the United States feel that there is any shame in this.

After a week and a half of negotiations, the two sides finally reached an agreed price verbally, and Wen Ming went to the Pentagon this time to sign a contract. At the same time, there are many agreements to be signed, such as non-disclosure agreements, exclusive supply agreements, and so on.

Before signing these agreements, if Wen Ming sold the 'Guardian' to other countries, the U.S. government would inevitably get him in trouble. But based on Wen Ming's status, he can only find trouble with him in other ways.

And after signing those agreements, if Wen Ming dares to sell to other countries, then the US government can directly kill Wen Ming.

The cost is not insignificant, but it is not without benefits. In addition to being able to have a little more benefits, the most important thing is to be able to become a real U.S. defense contractor.

Only in this way can Wen Ming begin to influence the U.S. military, and thus the U.S. government.

Teresa Roy laughed and said, "Don't worry about eavesdropping, even if they know how much money we make, because this technology is unique to you." And, it's not like you're not without a price. ”

Wen Ming smiled: "Okay, our net profit margin is three thousand. ”

Theresa Roy didn't reply because his phone had fallen to the ground.
