Chapter 417 From friend to enemy

When the banquet came to an end, Xiao Jimin seemed to have gotten some news, and said a few words to Mr. Xiao excitedly. Mr. Xiao's expression immediately became serious, and he stood up and walked solemnly out of the banquet hall. Following closely behind him were Xiao Jimin.

, Xiao Zhen, and Lin Hui and his daughter.

Seeing this situation, Bai Shuo knew that there must be something important.

Chu Ge on the side said doubtfully: "It seems that some distinguished guests have arrived, but it seems that they have no intention of sitting down."

Yang Feng seemed to understand something and immediately guessed: "Even Mr. Xiao...could it be..."

Everyone suddenly realized that no matter whether Yang Feng guessed it correctly or not, the background of this distinguished guest was definitely important.

After coming here for a while, Mr. Xiao happily led everyone back to the banquet hall. When Xiao Zhen passed by, Yang Feng grabbed Xiao Zhen and wanted to confirm his conjecture.

Xiao Zhen's expression was calm, but he did not deny Yang Feng's idea in his words. He only said that two distinguished guests were visiting.

Two distinguished guests? While everyone was thinking about the information, Xiao Zhen glanced at Bai Shuo and asked Bai Shuo to go to the hotel's reception room to chat about something after the banquet.

When Bai Shuo came to the reception room as scheduled, he found that in addition to Xiao Zhen, there were also Xiao Jimin and Lin Hui's father. The three of them seemed to be talking about things.

"Um, am I here early? How about I go out and wait for a while..." Bai Shuo said awkwardly.

Xiao Jimin greeted Bai Shuo cheerfully and said, "Brother Bai Shuo, don't bother me. We have finished chatting long ago and are just waiting for you."

Father Lin looked at Bai Shuo, praised him a few times, and then took Xiao Jimin to find a quiet place to play chess. Xiao Zhen sent the two elders away, and then told Bai Shuo that the purpose of his trip had been achieved.

Seeing Bai Shuo's confusion, Xiao Zhen explained: The introduction of Apple's new generation of smartphones has been approved.

When Bai Shuo heard this, he was overjoyed. He didn't expect that the problem that had been delayed for so long would be solved so suddenly.

"Are you happy?" Xiao Zhen asked.

Bai Shuo nodded: "Haha, it's finally a big event."

Xiao Zhen smiled: "I heard that this product is now popular all over the world. You are the exclusive agent of China. I am afraid you can make a lot of money this time..."

Bai Shuo was stunned for a moment, thinking about the meaning of Xiao Zhen's words. There was obviously something behind his words.

"Do you know why the approval of this product has been delayed for so long?"

Bai Shuo had long expected that there was something wrong here, but he had never been able to find out the real reason, so he quickly asked Xiao Zhen.

Xiao Zhen thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "Forget it, it's okay that you don't know some things."

Just when Bai Shuo was a little disappointed, Xiao Zhen said again: "We can introduce good things from abroad. But the more important thing is to learn from others. It is easy to introduce, but improving yourself during learning is the key.

"

Bai Shuo suddenly understood that Xiao Zhen's purpose of calling him here to talk was not simple, and immediately asked: "Then what should we do?"

Xiao Zhen smiled: "I remember you said before that the future will be an era of intelligence. I didn't quite understand it before, but after studying during this period and seeing more and more technological products, I gradually

I understand the significance of this era. It is indeed a gratifying thing to be the exclusive agent of Apple mobile phones, but I hope you will not forget your original intention and take it as your responsibility to revitalize China's technology industry and create a new era of intelligence."

Bai Shuo suddenly woke up. Indeed, Apple's fourth-generation mobile phone has arrived as scheduled, and he has made many suggestions for it. However, the Kirin mobile phone he created still does not even have a decent pillar product.

In this field, we are already lagging far behind.

"Brother Zhen, don't worry, I know what I want to do."

When Bai Shuo returned to Xincheng, good news came frequently from iph company. Lianxun, a directional cooperation company, ordered more than 20,000 Apple mobile phones in the first batch, with a total amount of over 100 million. The other two telecom operators have also been waiting in line.

The sales channels on the market for the general public are also very popular, and it is really hard to find one now.

Cao Anle is blooming and smiling. He expects this product to sell at least 2 million units, and it is conservatively estimated to earn 1 billion.

Bai Shuo showed no expression and just said lightly: "You don't understand Apple very well. Please multiply your number by at least 3."

"What? That can't sell at least 6 million units? No, I think our selling price needs to be more stable, don't sell it so cheaply..."

Bai Shuo's performance of iph seemed very mediocre. After returning to Xincheng, he plunged into the research and development of new Kirin mobile phones. Even most of the construction of Xincheng was left to Liang Ying.

During this period, the research and development of Kirin mobile phones has been very successful, but there is still a long way to go compared to Apple's strength. With Bai Shuo's personal supervision, everyone is working hard to overcome some problems that have been difficult to overcome for a long time.

The problem was also solved after Bai Shuo spent a lot of resources.

On the occasion of the New Year, Kirin's first generation 3G smartphone was launched. Although it is inferior to Apple's mobile phone in terms of technology and hardware, Kirin's mobile phone has gained social recognition with its novel shape, humanized design and advanced functional experience.

Recognition from all walks of life. In particular, Kirin mobile phones are more affordable and have won the favor of many young consumers, setting up a banner for domestic brands in China.

Just when the Kirin mobile phone was first showing off, Steve called again.

Steve once again invited Bai Shuo to join Apple, and clearly hoped that Bai Shuo would give up the idea of ​​independently developing new mobile phones.

"Only a platform like Apple can let you play to your heart's content..." Steve said.

Bai Shuo once again rejected Steve's invitation. But what Bai Shuo didn't expect was that a few days later Steve called again and brought up the old matter. This time Bai Shuo's insistence completely angered Steve.

Steve even did not hesitate to break off the relationship with Bai Shuo.

After Bai Shuo thought about it again and again, he was still determined to create his own mobile phone brand and would set Apple as the goal to surpass him. This conversation ended on bad terms. This was the first time that Bai Shuo and Steve had a relationship.

An obvious contradiction appears.

Another two weeks later, Steve called again. This time Steve's tone was calm and he talked about many past events with Bai Shuo. Knowing that Bai Shuo still had no intention of changing his mind, Steve didn't force himself anymore and just talked.

He took a breath and hung up the phone silently.

But from this moment on, Bai Shuo began to drift away from Apple. A month later, Apple even paid huge compensation and categorically tore up iph's China exclusive agency agreement. Bai Shuo did not call Steve.

From Steve's sigh, Bai Shuo had already foreseen such a result.

The friend I admire most has really become my most respected enemy.
