Chapter 788: Judge you in the name of environmental protection (4k)
On the day after Jobs's funeral, Apple's stock price fluctuated slightly and fell. With the official support of Apple, events to mourn and commemorate Jobs were held in many places in the United States. Articles about Jobs were everywhere on TV, newspapers, and the Internet.
Between the lines, comments from Disney's Iger, Microsoft's Bill Gates, Google's Larry Page and others are quoted.
Of course, Lu Fei is also indispensable.
It even says directly in the title:
"Huaxia Lu: Steve Jobs is my lifelong enemy"
"Without Steve Jobs's Apple, there would be no Lu's logic"
"Genius is on the left, madman is on the right. Huaxia Lu and Steve Jobs are the "genius madmen" who ushered in the era of smartphones."
It’s obvious that Apple’s god-making movement has begun.
"It's too clumsy!"
Ivanka stood up for Lu Fei and said, "Taking quotes out of context and exaggerating the facts. It is clear that your eulogy did not mean this at all. It is simply more outrageous than your drama at a funeral!"
"Since you are creating a god, of course you have to create it thoroughly. Why create a god if you want to lose face?" Lu Fei said with a smile, "This can be regarded as Steve Jobs's last plan for Apple. He entered the game with his own body and wanted to defeat me.
Use his death to eliminate the negative impact of iPhone 4s and beat logicX5 in sales."
"What are you going to do? Just let Cook step on you to build momentum for Jobs and Apple?" Ivanka said displeased.
"God is not so easy to be like. If you can be promoted to the altar, you will naturally be kicked off the altar. As long as you offend something unforgivable, just like the angels in heaven who are full of light. If you attract all kinds of black materials, you are not an angel.
No, but a fallen angel!"
The corners of Lu Fei's mouth raised slightly.
Ivanka cast a questioning look.
"On the day of the funeral, the mother of Steve Jobs' illegitimate daughter wanted to compete with his widow for the inheritance." Lu Fei said with a smile, "This woman is very interesting. She wrote a memoir about her and Steve Jobs on Facebook and Twitter.
There’s a lot of dirty stuff about Steve Jobs.”
Ivanka's eyes lit up, "Shall I find some TV stations and newspapers to give her an exclusive interview? Tell her about Steve Jobs well."
"If the program is effective, the ratings are high, and the memories of Steve Jobs are popular, you can be like Lewinsky and find a publishing house to help her publish her "Memoirs."
Lu Fei smiled evilly and said, "What do you think?"
"Giggles, what the audience likes to watch the most is the bloody real-life battles between wealthy families and gossip about celebrities. But whether she can become popular depends on how much dirt she can reveal about Jobs." Ivanka called in advance.
A vaccination.
"Let's arrange it for her."
Lu Fei nodded.
"Is this the only plan? It doesn't seem like it's enough to offset the huge advantage that 'Jobs' death' brought to Apple, right?"
Ivanka frowned.
""Memoirs" is just disgusting and disgusting to them. The real trick is later." Lu Fei was confident, "Help me pick out some clothes. I will be interviewed on TV in a few days."
In the name of promoting logicX5, three days later it appeared on CBS TV's gold medal talk show, "60 Minutes."
"Lu, I heard that you attended Steve Jobs's funeral?"
At the beginning, the host asked simple questions.
"Yes, when I received the invitation, I was surprised, but also honored." Lu Fei spread his hands, "You know, before Steve Jobs was alive, we were competitors, and there was me but not him. Steve Jobs
He hates me even more than my old friend Bill Gates, so it’s really surprising.”
"Hahaha~"
The host laughed out loud, "But your evaluation of Steve Jobs, your opponent, was not low at the funeral. You called him the 'madman who changed the world' with you, and he was your motivation to change the world. Is that so?"
One thing?"
"We are heroes who cherish heroes. We all have many things in common, one of which is what you just mentioned, 'craziness'!"
"Because only those who are crazy enough to think they can change the world can break the rules, break through the shackles with a unique vision, and truly change the world. Although Steve Jobs had a lot of controversy with the iPhone, in the era before the iPod,
He is undoubtedly a successful 'madman'."
Lu Fei commented seriously.
"Your evaluation of him is the highest I have seen recently. It seems that losing a rival like Steve Jobs is a huge regret for you."
The host shook his head and said.
"That's right!"
Lu Fei couldn't help but regret, "Jobs and I have many similar views in the field of mobile phones. It can be said that we are both enemies and confidants. We also pursue simplicity and portability, such as technological innovation, and green environmental protection."
"Environmental friendly?"
As a host who supports the Donkey Party, his eyes instantly lit up.
"Environmental protection" has always been an important issue for the Donkey Party, especially since Lucian became the leader. From "carbon emission reduction" to "carbon neutrality", concepts have been proposed one after another.
"Yes, I originally planned to set up an organization, hoping to invite him and Apple to join and contribute to world environmental protection. Unfortunately, he took the first step."
Lu Fei couldn't help but sigh.
"What kind of organization is it? Is it an environmental protection organization?"
The host asked impatiently.
"No, no, strictly speaking, it is to unify the charging interface standards of mobile devices and establish a specialized organization similar to the Android Open Alliance. Of course, one of the aims and purposes of the alliance is environmental protection!" Lu Fei said seriously
.
The host looked confused. The charging interface is standardized, so why does it have anything to do with environmental protection? Bullying me for not knowing environmental protection?
No one knows what environmental protection is better than Bai Zuo!
"Yes, if the charging interfaces are unified, the data cables and chargers of mobile phones, tablets and other devices from major manufacturers can be used with each other, which can reduce the generation of electronic waste, naturally reduce pollution and protect the environment."
Lu Fei said in a serious tone: "As for this unified standard, I said at the logic conference that today's mainstream USB interface is not suitable for the future era of smartphones. The future direction of charging interfaces must be Type-C interfaces! So this
The name of the alliance is also called the Type-C Interface Standard Unification Alliance!"
"Sounds good, Lu, are you an environmentalist?"
The host has a sense of like-mindedness.
Lu Fei nodded, "But Logic does this not just because I am an environmentalist, but because Logic is the company's responsibility. This is the consensus of people around the world on environmental protection, and it is also the national policy of countries and regions around the world! The mobile phone industry
Environmental protection is of course imperative! If Steve Jobs were still alive, he would not hesitate to let Apple join the Type-C interface alliance."
"What now? Now the leader of Apple is Cook."
The host asked curiously.
"I have sent invitations to him and Apple, but so far, he has not responded to me. I still very much hope that Apple can join this big family and contribute to environmental protection."
The corner of Lu Fei's mouth curled up, "I think Steve Jobs is still alive and would be willing to see Cook accept my invitation."
"I think it will, unless Apple doesn't support environmental protection."
The host cast a meaningful look.
"Haha, yes, but Apple will not support it. Apple is not an irresponsible company."
Lu Fei raised his eyebrows, you are such a special girl.
Advertising expenses are good!
The interview lasted about half an hour. The two of them answered questions and answers. The topics ranged from the Type-C Standard Unification Alliance to the Fast Charging Technology Alliance. From time to time, they would cue Apple and environmental protection.
On this occasion, Lu Fei solemnly announced:
"I would like to appeal here, hoping that more mobile phone brands can join the environmental protection team and protect the earth!"
Looking at him on the TV screen, the corners of Cook's mouth twitched.
Looking at the mailbox again, I received alliance membership emails sent in Lu Fei's personal name and in the name of Logic's company. There is only one meaning. If there is one missing out of three in mahjong, you are the only one missing.
But I am very conscious, this is Lu Fei's conspiracy.
Yes, if you don't join, you will fall into his trap!
Apple will have to be labeled as anti-environmental. In today's public opinion atmosphere that always emphasizes political correctness, white leftists will be criticized to death!
But after joining, the entire industry chain of lightning interface and the mobile phone structure designed around the interface will be abandoned!
Even if he agrees, the board of directors will not agree!
However, just when Apple was using commemoration of Steve Jobs as an excuse to avoid serious issues, Lu Fei stressed his call to "join the Type-C Interface Standard Unification Alliance" in many media, and always mentioned Apple and Steve Jobs, but Apple
Just doesn't respond.
However, HTC, Motorola, Google, Nokia, Shenzhou, OPPO, VIVO, and even Samsung, which is an enemy of Logic, have successively promoted their participation in the Logic Leading Unit Alliance.
Suddenly, Apple seemed out of place and unappreciative!
Online public opinion also began to force Apple to take a stand. Seeing that Cook could not be an ostrich, he had to find a new excuse. The official website stated that changing the interface required a board of directors resolution.
In short, just one word, drag!
But what is unexpected is that Apple executives such as Cook seem to have greatly underestimated the fighting power and patience of environmentalists, or to be precise, extreme environmentalists.
At the entrance of the Apple headquarters building, a memorial ceremony to mourn Steve Jobs was being held at this time. Although it was not as crowded as the previous few days, Apple fans occasionally came to present a bouquet of carnations in front of Steve Jobs's photo.
But today is different.
"The earth is beautiful, but we are destroying it!"
"You consume, others suffer!"
"Apple, are you environmentally friendly?"
"We need an answer! A support!"
Suddenly, a group of environmentalists holding high environmental slogans marched over and blocked the entrance of Apple, shouting in unison with a loud voice.
Seeing that they could not stop the weak security guards, they immediately reported the situation to their superiors and called the police. However, this environmental protection army was not only good at talking, but they immediately started a riot.
Although it was not so bad as to smash ketchup on the photo of the deceased, the flowers surrounding it suffered a lot and were trampled particularly badly.
Even the Apple logo was spray-painted green!
Finally, some fruit fans saw them taking a group photo triumphantly. They couldn't stand it anymore and came forward to argue. The two sides gradually escalated from a verbal dispute to a physical conflict, and the situation became tense.
Fortunately, the police arrived immediately.
"Woo~"
The lights on the police car flashed red and blue.
The news that the riot had been quelled appeared on tonight's TV show. Lu Fei shook his wine glass and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
“What a beautiful landscape.”
"It's really weird. So many people suddenly showed up to cause trouble at Apple?" Ivanka glanced at the smirk on his lips and couldn't help but ask: "Did you do this?"
"The idea is mine, but I don't execute it."
Lu Fei shook his head.
"Then where did you find these people?"
Ivanka was puzzled.
"Of course I refuse to rely on the Koch family for help. These people are all serious members of environmental organizations." Lu Fei took a sip of his wine.
"The Koch family? Koch Industries? If they are not against environmental protection, how could they support environmental organizations!"
Ivanka looked in disbelief.
"It is precisely because we oppose environmental protection that we must support environmental organizations. Don't you know that the best way to destroy an enemy is to disintegrate the enemy from within? The first step is to break into the enemy." Lu Feili said happily. "The Koch family
After listening to my suggestions, they funded many extreme environmental organizations, expanded their membership, and attracted many homeless people and Internet users."
"No wonder their demonstrations are not like the environmental protection organizations I have seen." Ivanka sighed, "Do you think this is going too far? Aren't you worried that it will affect your purpose of forcing Apple to protect the environment?"
"Why worry?"
Lu Fei smiled.
Environmental protection is a big issue for political correctness, especially for the Donkey Party. It is not only one of their core slogans, but also one of the issues to win votes for the white left and the center. Even if it goes too far, the Donkey Party will pinch the legislators.
The nose waved the flag for them.
"In this way, it can not only put public pressure on Apple, but also throw dirty water on environmental organizations, stigmatize the environmental movement, and make people hate this group of extreme environmentalists."
"No wonder the Koch family is willing to do this for you."
Ivanka suddenly understood, her eyes filled with admiration.
"Needless to say, I did a great favor to Koch Industries. I successfully diverted attention from chemical oil pollution and directed public opinion to the electronic waste generated by smartphones. Charles has to buy me a drink!"
Lu Fei drank the red wine in one gulp.
"Is this how you deal with it? Use the negative environmental impact to offset the positive impact of Steve Jobs' death?"
Ivanka leaned into his arms.
"This is just one of the plans. To deal with Steve Jobs's emotional strategy, we can only use emotions to defeat emotions."
Lu Fei pinched her chin and said, "Fortunately, only the United States will buy his fault. Europe and China will not do this."
"Are you going back to China?"
Ivanka blinked.
"I will go back immediately and hold a logic conference to pursue the victory and block Apple's entry into the Chinese market. If successful, Apple will never be able to easily enter the Chinese market in three to five years." Lu Fei squinted his eyes.
"If Apple makes me unhappy in America, I will make Apple unhappy in China!"
