October 9, Apple.

Jobs handed Cook the New York Times and said, "Tim, look, he said Apple has lost its soul."

When the title "Huaxia Lu: Apple is the best "follower" of logic" came into view, Cook was shocked, "Lu is really annoying!"

"I think it's quite interesting, don't you think?"

Jobs stroked his beard and said: "Just like Bill before, Microsoft can't target Apple and can only live with its mouth. The more this bastard Lu says this, the more it shows that there is nothing we can do against it."

Cook nodded and agreed: "The sales of iPhone 3GS are very good. Not only in China, but also in the global smartphone sales, it is second only to Logic. The growth rate of applications in the App Store is not inferior to Logic. Apple has entered the right track of the mobile era.

"

"Next step."

Jobs said seriously: "We want to completely eliminate Logic's first-mover advantage. I want to see whether my iPhone or his iPhone disappears first."

“The current ranking of global mobile phone manufacturers, Nokia is the first, Samsung is the second, Logic is the third, Sony Ericsson is the fourth, BlackBerry is the fifth, we are ranked seventh, but in the field of smartphones, we are undoubtedly the third

two."

Cook reminded: "However, because the Android system is open source, more and more manufacturers have entered the ranks of smartphones, Samsung and HTC are the most prominent, and we cannot take it lightly."

Jobs sneered, looking at Samsung and HTC like chickens and dogs, but they really deserved to fight him——

There's only Lu Fei, that's all!

"Steve, regarding the next iPhone 4, should we also consider a larger screen?" Cook suggested. "The sales of logicX2 seem to have verified users' demand for large screens..."

"3.5 inches is enough!"

Jobs held the appearance model of iPhone 4 and gestured: "This is the 'golden size'. In terms of one-handed operation, it can basically cover the thumb without any obstruction. A larger screen is too stupid. We can't learn from it."

Lu did something stupid."

Make money, don't be shabby.

Cook was already accustomed to his stubbornness and changed the subject: "How is your physical condition now?"

"I'm fine, quite fine."

"But your wife told me you have a hormonal imbalance?"

"Lauren, she doesn't understand. My team of doctors told me that they have found a 'relatively easy' treatment."

"But be sure to take care. We still have a long battle to fight with logic. Apple must not lose you as its commander-in-chief."

"Don't worry, I will never fall before I knock down this bastard Lu! Absolutely not!"

Jobs' tone was full of determination.

Cook looked at him without saying a word. In the first half of the year, he finally accepted the advice and underwent surgery to remove the pancreatic tumor. However, he looked withered and wasted day by day. It was hard not to worry about his health.

"The key to defeating logic is to innovate. We must launch products that are more advanced, shocking and revolutionary than logic. They are black technology products that only belong to Apple."

Jobs said seriously: "For example, iPad."

Cook turned his attention to the first-generation iPad prototype, which looked like a super-large-screen iPhone 3GS. There were still some vague traces of imitating the Kindle, but only a little bit.

Physical buttons, only one Home button.

Comparing Kindle 4, he had a vague premonition: "Steve, iPad must speed up its progress. Logical Kindle is no longer a simple e-reader. Maybe the year after tomorrow, maybe next year, once Lu realizes the future of tablet computers, direction, it is very likely to collide with our iPad again."

"Tim, I'm going to give you another hard trip this year."

Jobs asked him to attend Logic's press conference.

Cook happily accepted the order and arrived at the San Francisco Art Center on time the next day. There was a long queue at the door and it was endless as far as the eye could see.

It was densely packed with people everywhere.

Under the accumulation of marketing and innovation over time, logical users, especially loyal fans, have become fanatical believers.

Perhaps friendly companies like Nokia, Samsung, and Sony Ericsson couldn't understand Lu Fei's business logic, but he saw it clearly.

Because Lu Fei’s strategy is almost the same as that of Steve Jobs.

Packaging technology products into a high-end work of art full of high emotions gives the Logic brand a unique technological charm, which makes people have instinctive expectations.

The most brilliant thing is that it moisturizes things silently.

I am willing to be Mr. Lu’s dog!

Someone who can turn a product into a work of art, turn a brand into a religious cult, and turn himself into an IT leader——

Only Steve Jobs and Lu Feier!

Really, if you have Gang Leader Qiao, why not Master Lu!

………………

In the lounge, the electronic wall clock on the wall shows——

9:50.

Lu Fei opened his arms and allowed the staff to wear the black box transceiver on him, while listening to Su Zifeng's report.

"The total amount is US$255.6 million in cash, and Transmeta shareholders will receive compensation of US$18.7 to US$19 per share."

Su Zifeng adjusted her glasses, "If an agreement is signed within these two months, the acquisition is expected to be completed in the first quarter of next year."

"How much improvement will this Transmeta Ark chip bring?" Lu Fei pinned the microphone to his collar.

"The CPU launched by Transmeta is very suitable for notebooks and PCs that focus on low power and heat dissipation capabilities. Although it is not as good as Intel and AMD in terms of performance, it can fully compete with Cyrix in the low-end market. With Transmeta’s patents and team, Ark’s technical reserves will be qualitatively improved.”

Su Zifeng's focus is on the second half. Transmeta has also accumulated experience in blade servers and tablet computer processors.

In the future, we can get rid of Freescale and develop independently.

"I have no problem. Let's report it to the board of directors."

Lu Fei moved out of Logic’s exclusive rotating chairman system earlier than Ren Zhengfei. After all, Logic’s size is getting bigger and bigger, including Logic, Fuxin, Yangtze River Storage, ThePaper Technology, Spotify, beats...

Not to mention that there are so many departments and related subsidiaries with controlling shares that one person simply cannot manage.

But the power of veto is firmly in hand.

"Okay, Mr. Lu."

Su Zifeng raised a smile.

Never had such a wonderful start to my career!

"What does NVIDIA say?"

Lu Fei took a sip of water.

"Huang Renxun very much welcomes us to visit NVIDIA after the press conference." Su Zifeng answered truthfully.

"It's almost time, it's time for us to appear."

Lu Fei nodded with satisfaction, then looked up at the wall clock, strode out of the lounge, and walked through the backstage corridor.

At this time, 10 o'clock in the morning.

The venue was packed with seats.

In sight, you can easily spot the figures of technology giants, Nokia's Kallasvuo, Qualcomm's Paul Jacobs, Qimonda's Luo Jianhua, Apple's Cook, Nvidia's Huang Renxun, HTC's Wang Xuehong...

The four major wireless communications manufacturers in the United States, including American Telephone and Telegraph Company, Verizon Communications, and T-Mobile, are also present.

In full view of the crowd, a spotlight focused on the exit of the stage, and Lu Fei was dressed as usual. The only difference was that he was wearing an Iron Man mask on his face.

Along with the background music of "Iron Man", we walked to the center of the stage.

"Snapped."

"Bah bang bang."

The entire audience stood up and shouted, bursting into applause and cheers.

"I know you know who I am, but I still want you to tell me, tell me out loud, who am I?"

"iron Man!"

“Silicon Valley Iron Man!

"

"Tony Lu! Tony Lu!

"

The excited crowd gave the most enthusiastic and passionate response.

Especially when Lu Fei took off the Iron Man mask, the screams reached a climax.

"Yes, it's me."

“Welcome everyone to our logic launch conference.”

Lu Fei said the opening lines that he knew by heart.

"Although I don't want to be too high-profile, I have to say that Logic is now the second largest mobile device company in the world!"
