The small newspaper where Jenny works mainly provides readers with reviews of various electronic products on the market.
Through such evaluation articles, newspapers can not only get some money from readers, but also get considerable returns from manufacturers.
Therefore, the boss of the newspaper immediately agreed to Jenny's request and purchased an Apple computer.
But he didn't plan to spend an extra dollar for it. Although it cost a lot to buy this computer, he felt that he could earn more through their review articles.
Now it’s time to find out the various advantages and disadvantages of this personal computer.
If such a conclusion can be obtained from Apple at a satisfactory price, then their articles will focus on the advantages. Once the price cannot be negotiated, then all their articles will focus on the shortcomings and try their best to belittle Apple.
product.
Robert happened to come to this newspaper office. He originally wanted to make an appointment with a beautiful woman to chat, but who would have thought that he would actually do voluntary work to train people here to use computers.
But soon he had plans to develop the newspaper.
After learning their plan, Robert no longer had any thoughts of flirting with beautiful women.
For him, the treatment provided by Apple is quite good. Between work and beautiful women, he decisively chose the former.
Following his instruction, the people here took notes carefully, and then went up to try it out.
To be honest, this device is really very convenient. If you have to look for shortcomings, it is probably that it is expensive. But for a computer that integrates so many functions, the price is already very affordable.
.Have you not seen the previous quotations for business computers, which often start at one million US dollars!
Everyone quickly found out a lot of the advantages of Apple computers. But they were review articles, and finding shortcomings was their job. So no matter how difficult it was, they had to try their best to find the shortcomings of a product.
Although Zhao Ye has tried his best to make this first personal computer as balanced as possible in terms of price, functions, and alien aesthetics. But in the eyes of these professional trouble-seeking people, there are still many thorns to be found.
of.
Robert listened to the discussions of these people and secretly took note of their conversations, intending to pass this important information back to his company.
When he finished today's "work" and returned to the company, he immediately informed the company's senior management of the news.
Unfortunately, this news did not attract too much attention from the senior management. At this time, the company's senior management had long been shocked by the current hot sales scene, petrified, and also crazy with joy. At this time, such news appeared
, everyone felt that it didn’t matter. This is a world of free speech, and it is normal for a little discordant voices to appear. Besides, according to their traditional concepts, those who dislike goods are the ones who buy them. No matter how good your goods are, you can’t let them go.
People said that? Besides, if others say that your stuff is not good, you can still go to them and argue with them, right?
At this time, the difference in cognition directly caused Wang Hai, the person in charge of the overseas asset management company stationed at Apple, not to take the information reported by Robert too seriously.
The very next day, a newspaper with some weight in the industry directly commented on Apple's new computer. In terms of functions, they did not go into too much detail. Because it is obvious that Apple has really done a good job in this regard.
It's amazing enough. This can't be changed by them twisting their lips and saying a few snarky words. However, this does not prevent those professional reviewers from evaluating this personal computer from another angle.
For example, safety, and national sentiment.
Don't think that the United States has no national sentiments. Although they established the country for a short time, no matter how short it is, it is still a country, and it is still one of the most powerful countries in the world today. As a citizen of this country, there is naturally a feeling of pride.
inside.
A sentence in this newspaper read: "Our great country has sent humans to the moon, but it uses products invented and produced by foreigners that seem to have security risks, and are used to handle company secrets or
Computers for personal privacy. Shouldn’t our researchers be ashamed? Are the Wall Street giants all blind?”
Of course, the business giants on Wall Street were not blind. In a short period of time, they came up with the idea of Apple, a company run by Chinese people. At the beginning, they did not know what personal computers were used for until they put a personal computer into their hands.
The computer moved into their office, and they immediately smelled Franklin's scent.
I don’t know since when various investment companies, banks, or other companies or groups began to visit Apple frequently.
At first, Wang Hai was excited, but as the number of such visitors increased, he began to become more and more nervous. Because everyone who came would ask one question: Will Apple's shares be sold?
?
Apple is a wholly-owned company of an overseas asset management company, so of course it will not sell a single cent of its shares. But every time Wang Hai expresses his refusal, the visitor's face will become extremely ugly. No matter how slow Wang Hai is, he will
I know I will definitely be targeted.
Sure enough, a few months after the release of Apple's first-generation personal computer, Wang Hai became a little overwhelmed by a court summons.
That's not all. Starting from this day, the court's subpoena seemed to have been agreed. One was sent almost every day, with various reasons. Some of them were filed by a company suing Apple for using their technology.
Yes. Some are suing Apple for losses and harm caused by the use of Apple computers. The most outrageous thing is that someone actually sued because they took apart the circuit board inside without permission and then got an electric shock.
The large number of lawsuits made Wang Hai even more confused. At the suggestion of local employees in the company, they needed to hire a law firm to deal with these huge numbers of lawsuits. In the United States, some lawsuits that seem nonsensical and subvert people's cognition
, is likely to be supported by the judge, leaving the company facing huge compensation payments.
Wang Hai immediately accepted this suggestion, but when he contacted various law firms in Los Angeles, they either charged exorbitant fees or the other parties did not accept their entrustment at all.
Wang Hai was so eager to get involved in the affair, and after the news spread back to China, it caused a big wave. There is a serious lack of talents who understand the other party's laws in the country. Everyone was confused about the copy of the indictment that was sent back.
Sorry. Some people who say that Apple computers infringe are understandable, but looking at the indictments of those who were charged for dismantling computers with electricity, everyone feels that the courts in the United States are joking? Isn’t this common sense? You dismantle computers with electricity
Everything has the risk of being electrocuted, okay?
However, even if it is such a nonsensical lawsuit, everyone must take it seriously. In the current environment, all problems can easily be rectified. Therefore, this matter was immediately transferred from the Commerce Department to the Foreign Affairs Department.
Not long ago, senior diplomatic officials from the two countries just held a formal meeting in an informal setting, discussing many topics of mutual concern. But what they didn't expect was how long has it been? Just use it over there
They used this method to attack their own companies.
Yes, in the eyes of diplomats, this kind of behavior is an attack. Commercial attacks are also attacks.
If the other party makes a move, it must be faced and resolved. Therefore, more than a year after Zhao Ye left the capital, he flew to the capital again.
There was no time to go home for reunion, so Zhao Ye was sent directly from the airport to the relevant unit.
"Comrade Zhao Ye, what you see are all the documents that have been sent back before the 14th of this month." After Zhao Ye entered the maritime assets management company, the person in charge here took out a stack of documents.
Show the copy to Zhao Ye.
Zhao Ye didn't say anything more, just took the stack of documents and started reading.
After reading a few pictures, Zhao Ye stopped flipping through them one by one. "Leader, you'd better introduce the situation to me. I can't tell anything from this."
"Well, okay, actually, the information we have here is very limited. Our personal computer sales are very good, but since last month, many banks, companies, and institutions have come to us, and they have proposed
The request to acquire part of our shares in Apple was rejected by us.”
After hearing this, Zhao Ye basically understood the cause of the matter. He couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. This United States is really a virtuous country. No matter in the past life or this life, the capital of these United States will always pursue profits without stopping.
.Once someone refuses to cooperate with them and blocks their way to make money, they will show their fangs.
Obviously, Apple's attitude is the trigger. In the United States, it is difficult for a company to be able to penetrate the needle and pour water. As long as it is targeted by capital, it will basically end up being slaughtered. Unless you are strong enough, you are
A member of this capital club, and he must be a top-notch person.
However, such enterprises are not without trouble. For example, the original steel tycoon and his steel conglomerate were not forced to be split up by capital.
"Leader, this battle will not be easy to fight this time!" Zhao Ye was not optimistic at all. This was not because he was afraid of the other party's capital power, but because he was worried about the United States government being manipulated by capital. In order to force Apple to make concessions, he might
Will come up with even more disgusting tricks.
"Comrade Zhao Ye, we must confirm one thing, and that is whether our technology overlaps with that of the other party."
The leader was very cautious when asking questions. He did not use the word "plagiarism". Zhao Ye could guarantee at this point that the plagiarism must have been plagiarized, but it was not plagiarized from this life.
"Leader, are you really planning to find a lawyer to litigate with the other party?" Zhao Ye couldn't help but ask a question when he heard the leader ask this.
