The Apple Spaceship headquarters is located in Cupertino, California . This 2 . 8 million-square-foot building is like a castle that signified the Apple Empire . In the words of Steve Jobs, this new building is like a "spacecraft that landed," and the UA media likened it to "a giant glass donut . "
At this moment, 48 hours has passed since the Future Technology product launch . Apple CEO Tim Cook sat in his office and leaned back against the office chair . After Steve Jobs' death, he was worried about the company's prospects for the first time .
By the way, in the two days' time, Apple's market value evaporated by 20 billion US Dollar . Wall Street analysts believed that Future Technology's announcement to enter the mobile phone manufacturing industry would change Apple's dominant position in the high-end smartphone market .
Against Future, Cook pessimistically discovered that the Apple 8 did not have any advantage beyond price .
For the Apple 8 positioned in the high-end market, it was undoubtedly very ironic .
Looking at the Future in his hand, Tim Cook sighed .
Even as a competitor, he had to admit that the design of the Future was perfect, especially the function of the holographic screen; it was addictive to play with . If it were not for the fact that he was concerned about the media taking advantage of this opportunity, the thought of changing his own phone came into mind .
There was a knock on the door .
Putting the Future aside, Cook said listlessly .
"Please come in . "
The door was pushed open, and his assistant Bernard Bermen came in . As soon as he stepped in, the assistant said .
"Two news, one good and one bad, which one do you want to hear first?"
"Too old of a saying, what do you think makes me feel better?" Cook waved his hand .
Berman's expression was a little embarrassed, he hesitated for a moment and said .
"The product development department reverse engineered the Future phone . Combining the documents we obtained from the UA Intellectual Property Office, we have already deciphered their technology . "
"Oh?" Cook said with his eyes lighting up . He sat up and crossed his fingers on the table . "How long will it take to apply it to our iPhone 9 . . . No, it can't be called iPhone 9 . The ground-breaking product line must be renamed . Call it iPhone-N1 . . . "
"What's the matter? Is there still a bad news?" Cook said . "It doesn't matter how much they're going to charge for patents . If prices are too high, we can sue them . "
"It's not a question of royalties . " Berman gritted his teeth, and finally decided to be truthful, "Although we have analyzed the technology, but in regards to how to mass produce their parts . . . none of our OEMs can do it . "
Cook took a minute to process the information and then leaned back in his chair while revealing a wry smile .
"I knew it . "
Why did Future Heavy Industrial start to invest in the electronics industry and make big acquisitions from the screen design to the camera and a series of electronic equipment manufacturing companies at the start of the year? The graphene technology was integrated and a complete production line was built from scratch . From the very beginning, their plans were not small .
It was not just a move to dominate the smart phone industry, they were trying to monopolize the entire graphene industry from the source .
Future? Together to welcome the future?
It's better to say something more appropriate .
Monopolize the future .
. . .
Because of their limited production capacity, Future was even selling ten times more expensive in some countries on the black market . However, even if this were the case, the Future phones were still without a market . The intents to purchase Future phones could be seen on all the major forums, just like when the Phantom helmets were sold .
Whether it was from its innovation or practicality, the phone that could be held in a wallet, around a wrist, and project holographic images could be said to occupy the limelight . In combination with the marketing of Future Technology, and the massive marketing campaign, it was adding oil to the fire,
It was precisely because of this that the Future has been favoured by young men and women since its release .
"Ten thousand to purchase a Future, private message me! Contact information XXXX . . . "
"OP, if you're talking about US Dollar, I'd probably consider it . "
" . . . "
Some odd people even directly messaged Jiang Chen on Weibo with their selfies, seeking for a Future phone, which even made the scandalous Jiang Chen speechless .
Not only the Future phone sales were booming, but the mobile processor designed by future heavy industry, the Deep Blue M1 chip, had also been favoured by major mobile phone manufacturers . Within a month, Future Heavy Industrial received 2 million chip orders . If it were not for the priority to meet the needs of the Future phone, the dark blue M1 chip alone could make Future Group rich .
There was also a graphene screen .
With features such as light weight, resistance to dropping and strong durability, the graphene screen can be said to have already surpassed the current state-of-the-art OLED screen and has become the most promising display material in the future . More than a dozen companies, including rivals such as Apple, Samsung, and other smart phone giants, have reached out to Future Technology . They were even brazen enough to place orders at Future Heavy Industrial in hopes of upgrading their screens .
For these competitors, Jiang Chen did not make it difficult for them .
Under the premise of satisfying the Future phone production capacity, he didn't mind letting these competitors help him absorb excess production capacity . After all, the more he produced, the lower the cost would be . Is was even more pleasant to use this money earned from the competition to expand and improve the production line and grow his own strength?
More critically, they must swallow this!
The patents were in Jiang Chen's hands . You want to research and develop? OK, every production of a screen, batteries, chips, the patents cost to your cell phone will make your cost ridiculous! And the self-developed product with a spending of more than 1 billion US Dollar may not necessarily be comparable to the more mature graphene technology of Future Heavy Industries .
In the end, they still must buy screens, chips, and batteries from Future Heavy Industries!
And the most critical interactive holographic projection elements, as the main selling point of the Future phone, Jiang Chen would not sell to the competition at any cost .
Monopoly? Unfair competition? Oh, why don't you sue me in Xin .
Electronic parts with advanced technology were completed in the high-tech park on Ange Island . It would not enter the market unless it was supplied to Future Technology . If anyone wanted to use interactive holographic projection technology, take the patent file and research it .
It wouldn't be possible to understand the production process in five years . And five years later, Jiang Chen would have no need to keep the technology in his pocket . There would be more advanced technology . These outdated technologies could be packaged and sold directly .
The benefit of having an advantage in science and technology was precisely this point . Other people not only have to eat your leftovers, but they also have to swallow it . With the technical guarantees from the apocalypse, at least in a hundred years, Jiang Chen wouldn't have to worry about his technology becoming outdated .
As for one hundred years later . . .
Too far away . Jiang Chen didn't want to think about it now . If he couldn't defeat the crisis of 20 . 5 light years away, the continuation of the earth civilization on this timeline would be in jeopardy, let alone his Future Group .
