Chapter 657: Difficult Andy Smith

Andy looked across the street at Jobs' frowny, thin cheeks and was not in the same mood as he had on his face, but rather very, very bad, finally trying to match Apple.

For Jobs, who is convinced that "only paranoia can survive”, “pursuing perfection” is also an indispensable element while adhering to innovation. The Apple App Store AppStore may not have had this idea before, but it's now the most important part of Jobs' quest for perfection.

He was a stubborn, biased, considered authoritarian and grumpy man, and the things admitted would not change, and the board could not hold him back at all, and he knew better than anyone that there was not much time left for him.

“Our time is limited, so I won't waste my time living the life I don't want. Not to be confused by the dogma - it entices me to live according to the minds of others. The most important thing is to have the courage to follow your heart and your instincts. They'll know what kind of person you really want to be. Everything else is secondary. ”

Andy heard Jobs's voice a little low and sighed, but the expression on his face was still unexpected, his mouth slightly curled, and he looked at him with a smile, his eyes half-witted, “When I decided to think of this idea and create a new business model that blended the Internet with my phone, I knew that I pushed a door, and naturally someone would follow me, but competition would motivate me, right? ”

“$200 million, Apple is willing to pack and buy... ”

Andy smiled softly and didn't care if Jobs was embarrassed. “Just as I believed that crazy phones would prevail in the world, the future of the app app store was bright. I, the founder and pioneer, wasn't afraid of the chasers behind me. The market was huge enough that I couldn't eat alone. I never thought of stopping anyone from entering the market. ”

Andy never responded positively to Jobs' offer to acquire, and even Jobs himself knew that the price seemed high for a company that had just been set up, but the two of you were so-called geniuses, how could you get out of the coma?

“We may default by turning off the phone's APP access port. ”

“Apple controls hardware, software, platforms, user ports, no one will be your opponent, but after all, the United States has robust laws, unfair competition, monopolies, all rules that cannot be bypassed, no compensation, people are still more appropriate to work together to win, don't you think? ”

Jobs' expression on his face was a little cold, and his eyes looked at him with no retreat. For the young man in front of him, who was no different from his own, he was speechless. Nima, already a threat from Red Fruit, listened to him. If he broke the contract, he would stab him and sue Apple for monopoly.

“Apple does not monopolize, Apple is open, innovative, we will send people to start and ridicule Bird Gaming Company and Freedom City APP App Store contract amendment negotiations, amend the uniqueness of some of the terms, such as fruit swordsman and other game download pages jump to the store only option... ”

Jobs had no expression on his face, his voice was a little chilled, but the feeling in his heart that enough day had never been erased, FXXK, what the hell was that about him?

Andy looked at the ultimatum and found a reason to get up and leave Jobs, leaving his mouth behind, squinting his eyes and laughing, "That's rude! ”

Fortunately, Jobs didn't want to lift the table directly either. After all, the amount of damages for breach of contract was absolutely painful. He wanted to untie it, and it was understandable. Andy's contract with Apple had a lot of terms that he didn't seem to care about at all, and now it's a hooliganism clause that made Apple hate teeth.

Compared to the jump selection of downloading games below, the software first needs to download a bundle such as the Free City App Store APP, which is also a more common hooligan bundle mode in the post-market, almost no one's phone can avoid automatic downloads of this app store.

Andy's biggest advantage is seeing the future, and as the smartphone market matures, consumers spend longer and longer on their phones. Global smartphone manufacturer service revenue has increased dramatically, including double-digit growth in global application revenues, and third-party platform downloads will surge. This is a hundred billion dollar market, and he won't let go and can't stop others from entering. The only thing he can do is rely on the advantages of the pioneers to capture market share and build brand influence.

Two major camp domination markets divided by AppStore and GooglePlay in the past, now his City of Freedom has been absorbed into Apple, greedy absorption of nutrients that make him grow, Google's Android system, three of its own Internet companies have joined the Google Open Phone Alliance, as the first company to send a team to research and develop improved Android systems, don't worry about the emergence of new programs, and the market gap that emerged can be used to seize the market first time.

At the party, Cook looked at Andy Smith, who was happily chatting with San Francisco City Councillor Lee Mengxian in the distance with a glass of wine. His eyes were a little gloomy and he had just seen Big Joe's face not looking very good.

“No deal, he just dug up the trap from the start and counted us, who would have thought his strategic layout would be so forward-looking xing, this young man is very difficult! ”

Jobs walked up to Cook, half-eyed, somewhat depressed, and he said, in fact, they also understood that without Andy Smith's app store, they hadn't really thought about this business model before Apple, and honestly, on the other hand, they should really thank him.

“Otherwise, kick him out!” Cook was also very bored, he was part of the negotiating team when he signed the contract, he was also very happy to make a little profit from the download of the game, and now it looks like Nima, that's the poison bait this young man threw out.

“Oh, you don't think he thought about that? Believe it or not, if we break the contract, he'll sue, and when he gets the money, he'll pay the lawyer's fee to sue us for unfair competition, monopoly, even if he can't win, he'll drag us down with a lawsuit, that's what he just said. ”

Jobs didn't know whether to laugh or ridicule himself, but the tone of helplessness was obvious, and this young man was not only difficult, but also big enough for you to play with, and I was more shameless than you.

“Son of a bitch!” Cook's forehead came out with a black line, squeezing a curse out of his teeth.

“He can't be underestimated, look at his age, 23 years old, earned 10 billion lives in a short period of time, even I have to admire his abilities, he may not change the world, but the ideas and ideas he comes up with in his brain can make money, negotiate, solve the best at the negotiating table, the children from the political family, value the interests, understand the compromise. ”

Looking at Boss Joe's thin cheeks and bright eyes, he sighed and drank the champagne in his hand. He knew that the negotiations were undoubtedly their Apple company's choice of compromise. After all, paying billions of dollars for a user-service software platform that did not know the future prospects did not seem worth it at the moment and, most importantly, would attract a billionaire willing to let go to play scoundrel.

Anti-monopoly stick. Apple's scared or not. Who knows? But what if he really messes with the moth? That would be silly.

At 8: 30 p.m., Andy looked at the time, curled his smile, put the glass in his hand on a waiter's tray passing him, held the slim waist of a little assistant who had been a vase all night, found Jobs, the owner, and left the club with an apology goodbye.

Sending the assistant back to the hotel, in the underground parking lot, Andy said to Tory, "You take the two of them to stay for another night, fly back to Los Angeles tomorrow afternoon, and I'll take a walk tonight. ”

Tory Black blinked his eyes and seemed to think of something. Although he did not know who the QING woman in Los Angeles was, there was definitely more than one, and according to the King's preference for integrity, the other party was definitely a celebrity. The ones who had passed on the sniff had a great chance. It seemed like they were going to lose her again and go to the secret meeting with the qing people. He sighed helplessly. When the elevator was off, he saw the car's red taillight go away.
