Absolute Wizard

In fact, that reaction was happening little by little in the marketplace.

* * *

Cho Min-woo was also watching the reaction after only launching the domestic market first. To be honest, I had some expectations this time, but some concerns.

The target is Apple.

In particular, the iPod was somewhat recognizable in the country.

It was different from the CD-player market where the market had just matured.

He continued to keep an eye on the sales trend with a keen look on his face.

And the result was soon.

“So you raised sales by about 30 percent in the domestic market? ”

“Yes, it's true that they sold a lot for the first time. It's nothing compared to other businesses. However, compared to traditional product reactions, they fall a lot. In fact, the stock price is slowing down. ”

“Why? ”

“It's iTunes. ”

iTunes.

Apple's multimedia player and synchronization program for iPods.

I can mainly manage music, videos, and access the iTunes store and app stores to purchase music, music videos, movies and apps.

Data can be transferred to devices that are directly linked to the iPod via Apple media. It manages music and videos based on ID tags.

If you can subscribe to and manage podcasts, you can also share your archive with other iTunes users on the network.

There is no limit to the number of pieces of equipment that can be synchronized, and music files can also be copied to music CDs with no limit of collection.

In particular, the biggest issue here is the ability to download and rip information from a music CD.

“Well, is this about content ease? ”

“Something like that. Perhaps our products are a little uncomfortable in that regard. Now, iPod enthusiasts tend to look at responses. ”

“That's a real problem. ”

“But on the one hand, it also worked as an advantage. ”

“What's that supposed to mean? ”

“It's very uncomfortable to hear it illegally if it uses an iPod as a user. because cracking itself becomes difficult. And eventually you have to buy a piece of sound recording, which is very expensive for the customer. ”

“But that's not our product. ”

“Yes, it's easy to download illegally received files. Then you can hear your favorite files for free. Honestly, if you go on the Internet right now and you type in a scanner, you can get all the possible sound files. So it's fascinating to those consumers. ”

It was quite meaningful.

But it is precisely the point.

It was more common for domestic users to copy and use content illegally than to fundamentally pay for and use it.

The iTunes method that pays for every single song could not have been good.

Therefore, there were quite a lot of people who opposed it.

The MIFP100, which is now launched, had the upper hand on iTunes in this area.

When Jo Min-woo found out about the situation, he was in trouble.

It was my first time.

When you meet an opponent like this, you get hit.

"Phew, this is not a joke. The content problem isn't something that can be solved by magic, is it? ’

“Then the U.S. and other overseas sales might be a bit of a problem. ”

Chairman Yang also had a serious look.

“It's worse than domestic. The results are not as good as they are now under investigation from a U.S. corporation. Now, mobile MP3 is a little bit different than a CD player. ”

To be precise, Raincomb sold sales in the past.

But that wasn't Jo Min-woo's goal.

With that amount of sales, it was a huge blow to Raincomb. It might have been better to keep attacking the existing markets.

“........ ”

He eventually shut up in an unexpected situation.

I've been winning and moving on.

Knowledge of the future.

There's an understanding of magic.

This combined to create a new Mana element.

However, he was struck by an unexpected obstacle.

‘It's hard to live like this. ’

* * *

Steven wasn't feeling well today. He found out, especially recently, that pancreatic cancer is getting worse.

So I was even more annoyed.

If it was okay, the symptoms kept getting worse and crazier.

After returning to Apple, I ran to the top. Just a little longer, he could have been fully positioned.

If I did, I could also challenge myself to the goals I had envisioned in the past.

‘If we succeed, Apple will be able to leap again! ’

No, that little matter was the second problem.

It was more important to be able to establish a new technical paradigm in the world.

That's the progress of another human being.

It was the point where he wanted to go.

So this was a very important moment for him.

I couldn't miss a single moment.

I was immersed in innovative thinking while constantly worrying.

Pancreatic pain every time.

My doctor told me to quit my company and focus solely on treating my illness.

‘I can't do that. ’

His ambitious gaze flashes. He gripped his teeth and got up from his bedroom and immediately stepped outside in a light shower.

You can beat it with your mind! ’

* * *

Steven started his day off feeling uncomfortable as usual, but as soon as he arrived in his office, this thought disappeared.

The pain didn't feel much either.

It was also the best thing to do.

Soon, he took a deep look at the report from today.

Most of the content was already done.

Only a few things didn't go unnoticed.

It was the result of an ongoing new generation of OS.

‘Now we're getting somewhere. First of all, we need to create an independent OS. ’

It was an operating system made entirely for mobile devices.

Of course, there were many problems. It was how to apply the interface due to changes in the existing hardware perspective.

Especially through the touch method, it became a more troublesome concept of replacing the keyboard and the mouse.

It was too cluttered in situations where the OS structure itself was not yet specific.

Thanks to this, the development direction was also confusing.

The results were not very good.

Soon Steven wrote down his thoughts one by one.

The most important thing is also just one verse.

Avoid interfaces that are too complex and uncomfortable for users to intuitively be on virtual desks.

It was always a story.

But these developers thought it was a joke to the manager. He was so wrapped up in his work that he couldn't keep his head together.

It was hilarious.

But I couldn't say this in front of him.

It was his engineering pride. Soon, the same was true for the Chief Executive Officer of the hardware who visited his office according to his schedule.

“Stephen, we're still reviewing it, but a thin LCD like that is hard for a while. ”

“Tsk, tsk, did you hear the story directly from the company? Are you saying that after you went to LH and talked to him? ”

“Of course, we discussed it. But that's a fuzzy response. Once the market is unchecked, we cannot unilaterally listen to our demands. ”

“Hey, Scott! ”

“Yes?”

Scott is suddenly furious as Steven raises his voice. He had never heard such a one-sided story because of his position.

He really didn't like it. Maybe that's why he admitted Steven's ability and didn't like it.

This is so extreme.

‘But that's a propulsion. Because of that, the dying Apple was able to stand up again. Phew, I have to endure it. ’

“Let me ask you again. Did you personally go to Korea and meet with the person in charge? ”

It wasn't.

It was not a situation when I went to Korea to check every day.

He thought so.

Honestly, I admit it.

“No, I'm not.”

Steven slapped the desk of the Oval Office with a fierce stiffness.

Taang!

Twitch.

Scott trembles lightly, stunned by the violent response. I always felt it, but Steven was really scared at the time.

“Get out of here! ”

“? ”

He was a curious look on Steven's face.

Even if I was the chairman, I couldn't talk to myself like that.

Get out of here!

So you want me to quit the company?

Of course, that's not what Steven meant.

“Go to Korea right now and check again!!! ”

“Oh, I see. ”

Scott is forced to get up and leave the Houdad administration room. I felt it was better to avoid it now. He just made no sense that he should go to that village right now.

‘Fuck if I'm moving the company. I can't do it because it's dirty. ’

* * *

Steven laughs shortly as he watches Scott leave. It was funny how he reacted to the deliberate exaggeration.

Scott doesn't know anything else, but it's too passive.

It was the limit of being an engineer.

But he had to admit to his abilities.

Especially technologically, his eyes were nothing compared to his own.

But there was a pity.

‘It's good to be on your own, it's not. There's too much to talk about. Is it also a question of birth? ’

Soon, he sat down, expressing his regrets. Soon, I began to carefully examine the rest of the report.

What caught his eye was unusual.

What the hell is this? You're President Jo Min-woo? What do you mean, it's about MIFP100, a new generation product from Raincomb, Korea? ’

Soon I was interested.

Reports like this were common, so it was just something to pass on. Given Apple's growth now, I thought it would be nothing.

In fact, I tried to cover it because it is an MP3 related product that is contained in the report table of contents.

Right now, iPods are not just overcome by making good hardware.

But he also stumbled upon some of the unusual functions of the MIFP100 that were listed in the chapter before the report. It was specifically about a report entitled Magic LCD.

The content was truly surprising.

There are several unique technologies used in the MIFP100 of Raincomb. Among them, LCD is the concern. The LCD used here was surprisingly created by Raincomb itself. In that regard, performance should be lower than Sony and Toshiba companies, including other miscellaneous names. However, the LCD was surprisingly unique compared to these companies. It is a color spreading effect.

Report content coming soon.

There was a much more thorough analysis of raincomb products than I expected.

In addition to this LCD, a description of the special battery was also included.

The items surprisingly accurately portrayed the value of this battery.

In particular, one verse was meaningful.

I don't know why they use this advanced battery technology for MP3. I'd rather use it on the electric car side.

But Steven immediately remembered an article he had just seen.

I thought you said the GM signed an investment agreement for Raincomb? Did this have something to do with that? ’

Then something was wrong. Soon, I printed the contents of the report and began reading it again.

Of course, the secretary told me about the schedule in the middle, but the answer was very simple.

Cancel the whole day!

* * *

Steven didn't want to cancel either. He was worried when he started, but he began to get nervous over time.

After memorizing the moon for over a decade, he hardened his face.

"Khh, this is bad! ’

It was even more shocking than I thought. There were too many innovative changes to the seemingly disconnected technologies.

I could not win at product competitiveness

However, if there was one consolation, it was also content. I don't know if illegal copies are generalized countries, but there are some limitations against iPods in Europe and in the United States already copyrighted.

But it was not negligible.

The product's strength was too high and I was more likely to keep hitting it.

He is the President of Cho Min-woo in this situation (?) I even thought about the situation that resolved this content problem and firmly fixed my face.

Soon I yelled at my secretary.

“Assemble a voluntary meeting. ”

“Yes? When? ”

“Right now!!! ”

* * *

Scott was preparing his secretary to book a flight at the same time as he was afraid to arrive at his office shortly.

However, he suddenly heard that an emergency meeting had been convened.

‘Here we go again. Don't you ever get tired of it? ’

It was obvious.

I summoned the executives this time, and I didn't notice any caverns. Today, especially because he was photographed, it was clear that entering the meeting would be a target of intense attack.

I decided it was better to just ignore it and leave. However, an executive passing by his office opened his office door and grumbled.

“Hey, Scott, it's a meeting. Let's go. ”

“Ha.”

He sighed but had no choice.

I had to move a little faster.

‘I can't help it. ’

* * *

Scott walks into the conference room and looks around. Originally executives had sequences, so they were implicitly positioned.

Self was quite high in sequence.

It was close to Steven.

But not as much as today.

I slipped to my side.

A colleague next to you grumbles.

“Hey, Scott, why are you sitting over there? You have a place here, don't you? ”

Soon after coming into the conference room, I noticed some things.
