American Fortune Life
Chapter 381: The Apple Company Killed Without Knowing It
He sees treasure in the abandonment of others. Everyone sees the angle and position differently, and the Graham family sees Newsweek as a giant pit, a loss of money, and they can totally care less about its influence because they control the more powerful Washington Post group.
Andy, on the other hand, needs the credibility that Newsweek has built up over seventy years and the influence of the world to increase his voice in the media and the world, even if it takes his expensive knife to support it.
To a certain extent, holding such a newspaper is also a pleasure for the Smith family. After all, the newspaper relationship with other people is better. To be honest, it is someone else's, and there is nothing comparable at all.
The media in the United States are in the hands of private consortia, and they control the direction of public opinion, they exaggerate, they control the mindset of the people, the news, and they only give what they want the people to see.
This is also the main reason why trust in the credibility of traditional media has been lowered to a minimum since the advent of the media age, even leading many to believe that news on television, in newspapers, is false and untrustworthy.
Andy naturally knows how much impact the media will have on the traditional media in the future, so instead of making any internal changes to the "observer" who took over, he respected the newspaper's original philosophy, and the only change was to add his communication philosophy to the news.
It is particularly important that news stories appearing in weekly magazines must be truthful and reliable, that judgements must be made by enumerating supporting data, and that, as far as possible, guided biased judgements should not be made, allowing readers to make their own judgements on the basis of the detailed data listed.
The most traditional media do is think that they want to influence people's minds, they don't care about authenticity, as long as they can influence people's views with the content of the stories.
This is also the biggest reason why, since the advent of the media, Americans have become disgusted with traditional media coverage after simplifying and accelerating access to news.
Andy didn't want to interfere with the style of the Weekly after taking over Newsweek. After all, it was a long-standing newspaper style that had been upheld for a long time. Changing implied negation, although the previous intensity needed to be slowly soothed, not to be moderate, but not objected to.
In a nutshell, speaking with facts and eliminating any artificial factors from producing news, one can have one's own voice, but with data to support it, one cannot blind the reader.
Andy sat in the office boss's chair and wrote down his news philosophy and thoughts on the computer. After a thorough examination, he chose to save them after checking to make sure there were no problems. This was an email he was prepared to send to all the employees of the two newspapers after taking over Newsweek.
Picking up the phone and calling Blair of the gaming company in the past few days, his think tank frequently sold Apple stock, and now the market is a little skeptical, which led to a wave of Apple stock drops, and he's really worried about getting Apple to remember him, so Blair's ongoing partnership negotiations with Apple could be stirred up.
It's also impossible, Apple's cooperation has become a little insignificant compared to the potential profits from this real estate crash. Besides, if Apple doesn't choose to work with a gaming company, they can only use their phones for a long time, listen to music, take pictures, and don't even have a decent software app.
Besides, the stock is your own, sell whatever you want, Jobs has an opinion, okay, come and compile yourself, join the board of directors!
Cough, Andy thought too much, unless he held more than five percent of the shares in his hand to make a shareholder change announcement, and maybe Jobs would have been worried about him making it up.
It's also something Andy needs to consider after the economic crisis, becoming a shareholder in Apple and sucking blood on this giant bully.
Apple could make 50 billion a year in the future, but only 670 billion went to Apple, and all the rest went to the shareholders, which is a good investment to make money from lying at home.
Blair was a little unclear when asked by his boss, so he introduced the situation to the boss, and the cooperation negotiations were still relatively smooth. Compared to now, there is no conflict of interest, so there are two advantages.
Andy was relieved to know that this was going well, and this cooperation now seems mutually beneficial and mutually beneficial, even in the short term, but with Apple's phone grabbing the global market, Jobs and Apple will certainly regret it, and even put out some moth to break the deal. After all, the benefits will be impressive.
“Boss, the 10-year cooperation period is really too long, and we're going to make a 10% profit to Apple, and we're going to lose a lot. ”
Andy took the phone and stretched out his hand to cover his face, which really made Blair complain disgusting. Nima, if he knew what Apple was later, he would charge 30% of the toll if he went through their platforms and crazy phones. I wonder if he would feel blushed for what he said today.
Home This is when Apple itself lacks confidence in crazy phones, and when they take over the phone market, they will definitely regret it.
“ Is the liquidated damages detailed and explained to the other party? ”Andy was silent for a moment, and he didn't want to tangle for Blair's short-sightedness. After all, he was able to see the future, and no one else could, for profit, split the profit to the current crazy phone, which does seem to be cheap for Apple.
“It shows that all profits from selling Apple phones are 10 times higher, and although they once questioned the penalties for breach of contract to be too expensive, we argued for a consensus that three games were embedded in the trial version of the phone," Planting the Zombie, "" My World, "and" Fruit Swordsman. "We also agreed to their request to sell the full download in the Apple store.
However, there is disagreement over the payment issue, the boss you have instructed in the briefing, and we have made concessions in accordance with your decision, which can be collected directly by Apple and settled monthly, with interest due. ”
“Well, well, Blair, maybe you don't understand some of my decisions yet, but it doesn't matter, in the future you'll know that all the concessions we're making are very worthwhile, and maybe Apple will regret signing this cooperation document... ”
Andy also asked about the development progress of the various teams at the gaming company. He repeatedly instructed him to take care of the porting of the phone, to speed up the progress, to tilt and support both the funds and the staff.
Hanging up the phone, laughing a few laughs, using their forward-looking strengths, tying their games and Love Series phones together, and shackling Apple so that they can spit blood to finish the contract, even if they regret spitting blood.
Oh, 10 times the liquidated damages from hand-to-hand sales profits, hey, unless Apple really spends billions of dollars to terminate the contract, this game of "My World" alone sells 10,000 sets a day, if you remember correctly, in six years, the PC version alone sells 20 million sets. Of course, Apple is really going to kick it off, and that's nothing.
But it's not worth the price they pay to get out of the game, even if it's only 10% of the profits, even though it's very tedious for the dominant Apple company.
But after a long time, you'll get used to it!
Being able to wrath Apple makes Andy feel super comfortable. Big bully like Apple, everywhere I go is a pair of old people first, if you don't listen to me, I'll tease you, and your rogue company, can make their company mention itself up and down black face, helpless, biting teeth, unpleasant, but there's just no way to prefer myself, it's just a glorious story that Andy should praise.
Perhaps when Apple wants to tear its face apart from itself, it should look at them and say, "I just love the way you can't get used to me and get rid of me! ”
