Chapter 688 Crazy pursuit, Steve Jobs’ determination (1 update please subscribe)

 Descendants have different opinions on Steve Jobs's life.

Some people say that he is a technology madman and an entrepreneurial madman who single-handedly brought Apple to the top of the technology industry.

Before Chen Xiao was reborn, even decades after Uncle Qiao's death, his technological legacy was still protecting Apple, making Apple the greatest technology company in the world.

Some people will say that Steve Jobs is a hypocrite. There are news reports that he smoked sex, picked up girls, had a bad temper, was selfish, had no charity, was unhygienic, and had all the disgusting shortcomings.

His deteriorating health and early death were inseparable from his messy living habits and various bad habits. Some people scolded him that he deserved to die!

But no one is perfect, everyone has poop on their butt, it just depends on whether you use toilet paper to wipe your butt, and after wiping it, whether you throw it into the wastebasket or put it up to your nose and smell it.

The Apple mobile phone designed by Steve Jobs indeed changed the entire history of smartphones, ushering human society into an era of accelerated development of the mobile Internet, and made countless Xia Guo technology company CEOs idolize him.

The president of Xiaomi regards Steve Jobs as his goal and calls himself or is called Rebus.

Mr. Luo also believes that he is the Steve Jobs of Xia State and wants to change the world.

When a person dies, the coffin is sealed, and any comment is left to future generations.

But he has left a mark on this world and can be remembered by others. This is a great success.

There are hundreds of millions of people in every era, billions of people, and how many of them can be remembered by future generations?

Sitting in the office, Steve Jobs didn't know that many people wanted to be him. What he wanted to do most now was to reduce the thickness and weight of the upcoming iPhone 3GS a little bit more.

In fact, there is no need for Jobs to be so obsessed with the thickness and weight of mobile phones.

Because no matter how thin and light the iPhone is, when it comes into the hands of consumers in Xiaguo, they will wear a phone case a few millimeters thick and put a film on it.

It took Uncle Qiao several months or even half a year to reduce the thickness of the mobile phone by one millimeter, breaking the defense in minutes...

Jobs put down his iPhone and called his assistant.

Jobs said: "You should pay attention to the latest situation of carbon crystal storage and memory at Changtian Technology and see if you can purchase some hardware from Changtian Technology."

The assistant said with some surprise: "Sir, are we planning to purchase Changtian Technology's hardware products?"

"But we have just signed large-scale supply agreements with Elpida and Toshiba, and these two companies have become our suppliers of flash memory and DRAM."

Currently, in the field of hardware, competition among technology companies is also quite fierce.

In the beginning, both flash memory and DRAM suppliers were Samsung.

Later, because the price negotiation between Apple and Samsung collapsed, the cheaper Elpida and Toshiba were adopted.

But because the relationship between Apple and Samsung is very good, the collapse of price negotiations between flash memory and DRAM will not affect other cooperation.

Therefore, the chips for Apple mobile phones are still designed by Apple’s semiconductor team and manufactured by Samsung.

The assistant said this very clearly.

Apple has just determined its suppliers of flash memory and DRAM. If it changes its supplier to Changtian Technology Hardware Company and no longer purchases Toshiba and Elpida products, then the production of iPhone 3GS will be affected, and it will also face such problems.

Huge compensation for both companies.

Although Apple has been in business for many years, it has only been making smartphones for the past two years.

Therefore, the best way to avoid negative news is to avoid it.

Jobs thought deeply for a while, took a puff of his cigar, and said, "Man, you don't understand. I just made a simple calculation."

"If we use Changtian Technology's flash memory or DRAM, our mobile phone will be smaller, lighter, larger in capacity and faster."

Jobs said: "The ideal capacity of the 3GS mobile phone we designed is 8GB. After deducting the space occupied by our system, it may be less than 7GB. This is indeed a very considerable capacity compared to other brands of mobile phones, but for users,

You may download a few movies or songs, but the storage may be gone.”

"If we want our equipment to lead the market, we must consider it from the perspective of consumers and do our best."

In 2009, it was still the 3G era, and the monthly traffic of mobile phone services was limited, and of course the speed was also very limited.

It is absolutely impossible for users to use data to watch movies online like in the 4G or 5G era.

Most mobile phone users are still used to downloading movies to their mobile phones to watch, or going to places with WIFI to use WIFI to watch online.

Large-capacity mobile phones will never become obsolete in any era.

After listening to Jobs's explanation, the assistant felt that it made sense.

At present, whether it is Samsung or Toshiba and other companies, their storage and memory technology is still far behind compared with Changtian Technology's carbon crystal memory. If they can obtain Changtian Technology's carbon crystal memory, the performance of Apple mobile phones will be even better.

A step.

Apple headquarters immediately dispatched a team to Xia State, hoping to learn about the specific measures of Changtian Technology from a close distance.



Nokia headquarters in Finland.

Senior executives at the headquarters are enjoying the honor of Nokia's global sales number one.

The addition of Symbian and Nokia mobile phones makes both the most brilliant products.

In the past few years, with the rise of Android and other systems, news has spread that Symbian has fallen behind and is dead.

But actual sales show that Nokia is still the king.

Especially in the Xiaguo market, although Nokia suffered a loss from Changtian Technology because mobile phones using the mobile 3G standard can only be sold under the "Heart" brand, this cannot stop Nokia's mobile phones from being sold like crazy in Xiaguo.

The mobile phone market in Xia Guo is still the fastest market for Nokia and one of the most profitable markets.

In the past few years, Nokia adopted the strategy of selling mobile phones in Xia China after being released overseas for several years.

Now that Xia Guo's market is becoming more and more important, Nokia has also begun to launch new mobile phones in Xia Guo.

Nokia's executives are very excited and are discussing the release of the Symbian S60 this year.

But Simpson was very worried.

He feels that smartphones are undergoing some changes.

People use mobile phones not to make calls and send text messages, but to use social software, listen to music, watch TV, and play games.

Nokia's Symbian system has now reached a bottleneck in application expansion.

Android and Apple's IOS have just come out, but the quality applications there surpass Symbian, and there are already many people from elite development companies who are deeply developing ISO and Android applications.

Moreover, both Android and Apple mobile phones are developing towards large memory and large storage.

This time, Simpson heard that Changtian Technology was going to publicly sell carbon crystal storage and felt that this was an opportunity for Nokia.

Nokia can completely purchase carbon crystal storage from Changtian Technology and usher in an era of mobile phones with large capacity and highly centralized functions.

Simpson’s suggestion is to develop a new, more comprehensive mobile phone system as soon as possible, or develop several Android phones to see the effect.

Eggs cannot be put in the same basket, and it is obvious that Simpson feels that in the mobile Internet era, Symbian is beginning to fall behind.

When Simpson informed Ollila of this suggestion and spoke to Nokia's senior executives, it was unanimously rejected by Nokia's senior executives.

"Simpson, what do you mean by this? Are you asking us to give up Symbian, which has been developed for many years and has a mature market, and develop other systems?"

"And we are already developing a new mobile phone system. I don't think this has much to do with whether to buy Changtian Technology's carbon crystal storage."

"That's right, Simpson. I know that you have a very good relationship with Xia Guo and are old acquaintances with the senior executives of Changtian Technology. But in order to sell their products, you asked us to purchase them. Isn't this excessive?"

Some senior executives even said half-jokingly: "Simpson, I wonder if Changtian Technology has given you any benefits?"

Simpson's face turned red when he heard this. He didn't even know when Nokia became like this.

Ollila has never had a good impression of Changtian Technology.

Nokia and Changtian Technology have always had an awkward cooperative relationship, at least that's how Ollila feels.

Last time, Nokia was interested in entering Xia Guo's mobile phone business, hoping to use China Mobile's 3G network.

But with Changtian Technology interfering with it, even cooperation is a very unpleasant cooperation.

Now that Simpson is proposing to purchase Changtian Technology’s hardware, Ollila will never agree.

Ollila told Simpson: "Don't mention this matter again. Our mobile phones are equipped with external flash memory card slots. Although the old mobile phones only have 2GB, in the new generation of mobile phones, we can find ways to support expansion.

A larger storage capacity, 4GB or 8GB will do."

"As for the flash memory, the cost is the responsibility of the consumer. We will not include it in the cost of the mobile phone, so we will not mention it again."

Ollila is dismissive of the idea of ​​increasing phone storage.

He is determined not to learn from Apple's fixed storage and non-removable batteries, thinking this is an anti-user design.

How great is the removable memory card, you can use as big a card as you want.

Simpson felt completely excluded from headquarters, and his reasonable suggestions for Nokia were not adopted.

Simpson felt the desolation of some heroes in their old age. He sighed deeply and sat down without saying a word.

Simpson even thought with some sadness that Nokia headquarters was now criticizing Changtian Technology. It seemed that if he did not buy things from Changtian Technology, it would be Changtian Technology's loss.

As everyone knows, when the time comes Nokia really wants to buy the hardware of Changtian Technology, and there is still a question mark as to whether Changtian Technology will sell it.

Nokia did not know at this time that many companies such as Motorola and HTC had heard the news and had sent representatives to Changtian Technology to sign the purchase of carbon crystal storage and related contracts.
