On August 1, 2009, after a few days of upgrading the research room and working overtime, Wen Ming finally succeeded in manufacturing the iPhone, an engineering machine.

After importing his iOS system into the first engineering prototype, Wen Ming's inner sense of accomplishment is very great. Although his knowledge of making iPhone hardware and software comes from the very 'simple' thing of dreaming, he made it himself.

The other dozen or so researchers in the research room also looked at their boss with admiration at this time, and they knew very well in their hearts that although they also had the identity of researchers, this mobile phone called iphone could be said to be from their boss alone.

"I'm not a sycophant, boss."

After a researcher excitedly took the iPhone, he said heartily: "This phone is the most beautiful phone I have ever seen, except for the previous Motorola V3, there is no one." ”

Hearing the Motorola V3, Wen Ming also knew very well that in some years of his previous life, the magic machine he dreamed of was the Motorola V3 that was once named the blade.

But even if it is not a smartphone, and the Chaobo flip phone V3 with the name of the blade, the thickness has reached 13.9mm, and Wenming's iphone is not only a smart touch screen phone, but also only 9.2mm thick.

The engineering prototype made by Wen Ming himself is no different from the iPhone that will be mass-produced, both in appearance and internal system programs, all of which are manufactured in accordance with the same model of unified specifications.

The iPhone, which once made the media of another world claim to have invented the mobile phone again, appeared in this way, and moreover, it was also complimented by more than a dozen researchers.

The iPhone circled around in the hands of a dozen researchers, and after half an hour, it was back in Wen Ming's hands again.

If it weren't for the fact that the iPhone didn't have any software at this time, Wen Ming had reason to believe that this time would have become longer.

After getting back the world's first-ever iPhone, Wen Ming gave a task to other researchers to assemble some parts of the other iPhone, and import them into the iOS system to start debugging.

When the other researchers started to work, Wen Ming began to play with the iPhone in his hand.

In the previous life, when the iphone4 came out, Wen Ming had never even heard of it, and it was not until later when the iphone was hard to find that Wen Ming was shocked to hear that there was still such a mobile phone in the world. However, after the shock, he did not buy an iPhone 4 because there was no money at that time.

It wasn't until later, when the iphone4S dropped in price because the iphone5 was about to go on the market, that Wen Ming finally caught up with the trend and picked up the enviable iphone in the subway. The price paid is, of course, a few months of thrift.

But since the iphone5 was launched, the Apple mobile phone has become the arcade machine in China at that time, and holding the Apple mobile phone can no longer become the object of envy of others. is also famous because of income problems, and switched to the domestic mobile phone camp.

Of course, the slogan of supporting domestic production was also his explanation to himself at that time.

(ps: Don't blow or black, personal experience, please don't bring rhythm.) ）

In this world, he will be the first person in the world to use an Apple mobile phone, and even, in the future, he will always be the first person to use Apple series products, and the products of other companies will be completely out of his favor.

Because it has not yet been approved for communication certification, Wenming's iPhone cannot be used directly. But this is not difficult for the current Wenming, only need to use the manufacturing of other mobile phones to make an accessory, you can use the hardware connection, so that this engineering prototype of Wenming can become a normal mobile phone.

Of course, on the surface, a mobile phone is connected to a brick-style accessory, which is very unsightly.

(PS: It's pure speculation, I don't know how to do it.) ）

Walking to a quiet place, Wen Ming used this iPhone to make the first call, and the person on the phone was Sith.

"Guess what, what did I call you with?"

The Sith on the other side of the phone was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Could it be that you invented the iPhone?" ”

Wen Ming didn't blush at all when he heard Sith say that the iPhone was invented by him, but said very proudly: "Yes, I invented the iPhone!" ”

The Sith was very happy when he got the news, and said, "In three days, I should be able to complete this negotiation, remember to reserve one for me." ”

Wen Ming said that there was no problem, but he did not want the Sith to return in three days.

"Did you know that in order to be able to talk to you with this phone, I made an accessory out of another phone."

Wen Ming looked at the 'brick' attached to the iPhone and said, "I hope you can go directly to the communication company to complete the cooperation request we put forward before, so that we can directly install the SIM card on the iPhone." ”

If you want to make a mobile phone, you can't help but contact those communication companies, because a mobile phone is not a product that can be used alone, and it must be used with a SIM to be called a mobile phone. An iPhone without a SIM card can only be called a small iPad.

Moreover, the price of the iPhone is 499 US dollars according to the basic version of Wen Ming's previous life, which is very expensive for many Americans, although the United States is a developed capitalist country, but the gap between the rich and the poor in China is also very large.

If you can reach a cooperation with a communication company to make the iPhone a kind of contract phone, then, according to the pricing of the iPhone contract phone in the United States in the previous life, the basic version only needs 199 US dollars.

The reduction in pricing will greatly increase the sales of the iPhone, and the loss of benefits is not as much as imagined, even if the communication company can order the iPhone at a preferential price, but after the sales are more, the profit will naturally come back.

Sith sighed exaggeratedly and said, "Boss, even if we have a very good relationship, you can't use me like this, right?" I just helped you complete a $1 billion acquisition and helped you win a 2.1% stake in Facebook, and you just gave me back? ”

After a week of negotiations, the first threat that Shedd said was not put into practice. Maybe it's because even Li Jiacheng doesn't think he can invest in a software to beat ins in the American market and some other Western markets.

Without the first threat, then, this time the four-party merger and acquisition case was successfully negotiated, and the result of the negotiation was that Facebook completely owned ins, and Li Jiacheng invested 500 million US dollars to get 2.1% of Facebook's shares.

For Apple, it is known that it will get a 2.1% stake in Facebook, as well as $500 million in cash, of course, of which $100 million will be for the benefit of Teresa Roy.

Because ins** has become Wen Ming's personal investment, although it uses some resources of Apple, but because Apple is completely owned by Wen Ming and does not have any shareholders, 2.1% of the Facebook shares and $400 million in cash will be Wen Ming's personal income.

However, although everything has been negotiated, the final finishing work will take another three days to complete.

"How about I decide to give you free lifetime access to Apple's products?"

Wen Ming laughed and said, "Don't underestimate it. Apple doesn't have any hardware officially available right now. ”

Sith also laughed and said, "I don't think I can't afford Apple's products with my own salary, if that's the case, I'll choose to teach you a lesson and resign." ”

As Wen Ming's elder, the Sith is naturally qualified to teach Wen Ming a lesson, of course, this is just a joke.

Jokes aside, Sith agreed to Wen Ming's task and began to arrange business negotiations with several communication companies in the United States.

"One more thing to remind you is to build a sufficient number of engineering prototypes as soon as possible, because if we want to sell iPhones to other countries, then we have to get certification licenses from other countries."

Wen Ming said that he knew about it, and Sith reminded: "I suggest that you go to Huaxia first to submit the certification application, because it ......"

Frowning, Wen Ming said, "If the situation we are worried about really occurs, believe me, it will be him who regrets it." ”
