Chapter 251: Feng Shui Rotates

Cook was even more desperate, he didn't know that the vice president was right.

But so what? Even if it's far inferior to a virtual helmet, they can't make it.

Apple's internal technology accumulation is still very strong, at least far beyond everyone's imagination. If it really comes to the moment of life and death, a super mobile phone that far surpasses its peers in the world, they can also hold it back.

However, these technological accumulations have been outdated before Apple can apply them to the next generation of products. The patents that have piled up in Apple's patent library have become a pile of waste paper.

"Google what do they say? Do they have the technology? Cook suddenly remembered his fellow brothers in Silicon Valley.

Don't look at the competition between IOS and Android in full swing, but Apple and Google, in fact, there are still a lot of collusion in secret. At least on the IOS system, I don't know how many times Apple's misappropriation of Android patents has been exposed. If this is not for Google's covert patent licensing, how dare Apple be so presumptuous.

Even with Apple's pride, it has to admit that in this era of rapid technological change, the IOS system has long been defeated in the competition.

The highest-end Android system has already surpassed the IOS system. It's just that the United States doesn't allow high-end Android to be licensed to other countries, so the Apple system can be popular.

In fact, every time Android competes with Apple, it is an unfair showdown. The Android camp will be very aggrieved to find that every time they go to the IOS duel as a junior. Their elders, the new generation of Android, are pinched in the hands of Google and are not authorized to them.

After Apple updated the system and upgraded it again, Google finally gave the next generation of Android an upgraded version. But compared to the latest version of IOS, Android is still a generation lower.

Google teased global manufacturers like this, and the major mobile phone manufacturers who were forced to revolt one after another, relying on open-source system code to develop their own systems.

has been pinched by people on the system, and these mobile phone manufacturers are not muddy, but people are angry.

As a result, a variety of Android variant systems began to be active on the world stage. Google also found out that something was wrong and began to delegate to their state-of-the-art systems. But if they have suffered a loss, it is impossible to expect them to give up the system they have managed to get and suffer another loss.

So although IOS is popular on the market now, various domestic Android variant systems are also worth looking forward to. Android is Google's, but these systems are just reprogramming a system using the open source code in it. So, it's extremely ridiculous to say that all Android belongs to Google.

In real terms, only the native Android system belongs to Google. As for the open-source variants, such as Xiaomi's Huawei system, sorry, their own!

Apple's collusion with Google is not just about the system. In many fields, we can see examples of two companies colluding with each other to harm the world.

This also led to the fact that Apple couldn't create a replacement for the virtual helmet itself, and the first thing that came to mind was Google next door.

The vice president shook his head: "Google doesn't have this kind of technology, and their most advanced virtual technology is only several times enhanced on the basis of VR products on the market, and it can't achieve this effect at all." ”

"What then? Sitting still? Cook asked with a frown.

The VP shook his head again and then explained, "Sir, Google has come up with a very feasible solution. They led Qualcomm, Intel, Microsoft and us, using their respective technical backgrounds and accumulations to piece together a virtual device that could be commercialized. ”

"Fart, so that our Apple's technology accumulates, and they want to get their hands on it without spending a penny?" Cook yelled.

This proposal is as the vice president said, and it is extremely feasible. The accumulation of technology by several giants in Silicon Valley is no problem in changing the world. Even if you can't make a perfect product like a virtual helmet, there's nothing wrong with making an inferior one.

But there is a problem here, that is, who is stupid to share his decades of technology accumulation with others for free?

To put it bluntly, those technological accumulations are the foundation of Apple's foothold in the world. Even if this thing is created, but the foundation is gone, how can they still stand in the world?

Even if the market value falls more now, Apple can still exist. Even if the product can't be sold by then, they Apple will not have a moment of revival with the accumulation of these technologies. But if you share the technology with others so stupidly, then Apple will inevitably end up with a doom.

If Apple doesn't have technology, it can really only sell feelings.

The vice president nodded, not surprised by Cook's reaction.

"Yes sir, several others have rejected Google as well."

"It's a fool not to refuse, it's just a temporary crisis now, and it's not yet the moment to fight hard." Cook was unimpressed.

Unexpectedly, the vice president then revealed another shocking news: "But sir, Google handed this proposal to Mr. President." It is said that Mr. President is very optimistic about this proposal to gather the power of Silicon Valley and seize the right to speak in the virtual era, and it is possible to push the proposal to be mandatory. ”

"Shet! What are these politicians going on in their heads? Cook was unusually angry.

For the first time, Cook, who had always been courteous and polite, felt anger like never before.

"Damn it, he's not going to be the president of his real estate? Shet, this guy must have received black money from Google, right? He won't pass this bill unless he's stupid. ”

The vice president turned a deaf ear to Cook's words, and there were some people that Cook could scold and he couldn't. He is a smart man, and he knows that some things are just forgotten, and leaking them will only add a lot of trouble to himself.

After scolding for a while, Cook also felt like he had lost his strength. I saw that he regained his old fighting spirit, and said in high spirits: "To gather the employees of the technical department, I need to have a general meeting." By the way, a statement is issued to the outside world, saying that our Apple has decades of heritage and will never fall in the virtual era, please look forward to our next product! ”

The vice president was stunned when he heard this, and asked curiously, "Sir, do you want to reveal the news of the next product?" We've just had our autumn launch......"

"Let's just say it, autumn...... Alas, the autumn press conference is as if it hadn't happened......" Cook let out a long sigh.

At the autumn press conference, Apple's notch full-screen iPhone X became famous in one fell swoop. It was one of Apple's best days. It is unimaginable that less than a month after the iPhone X was on sale, they encountered an existential difficulty.

The last such company, was it Nokia or Motorola? Cook doesn't remember much......
