Giant of the times

On the phone, Li Zetian communicated with the CEO of Cronos Energy Company for more than ten minutes and determined the research and development of power bank.

In the next period of time, I will just wait for the release of iPhone.

Prior to this, Li Zetian thought about it, discussed it with Jobs, and decided to have people secretly post photos of the iPhone's appearance online, causing controversy and warming up the iPhone in advance.

In the first half of this year, Nokia has released several new mobile phones. It’s time for Apple to show its fist, otherwise it will be looked down upon.

Apple bought some advertisements on the Internet, and soon the appearance of the iPhone was discovered by netizens.

"Is this a mobile phone??? Why are there no buttons?"

"Damn it, this looks really cool and has a full sense of technology, but how can you make a call without a keyboard?"

"Apple's new phone should use a touch screen, and users can press buttons on the touch screen to dial!"

"Touch screen phone! Let me go, it's high-end and classy!!!"

"Haha, in fact, this Apple phone is not the world's first touch-screen phone. Motorola launched a touch-screen phone called Motorola A6188 as early as December 1999, which has game software and a WAP browser. , E-Mail, schedule, computer, alarm clock, notepad, electronic dictionary, etc. However, this type of mobile phone is very expensive, flashy, and the touch screen is not as easy to use as the small keyboard. Therefore, the Motorola A6188 mobile phone was rushed... …Haha, Apple also produces this type of touch screen mobile phone, it is definitely a big failure!”

"Oh, what you said makes sense! It's not enough for a mobile phone to be beautiful, it must be easy to use, otherwise no one will buy it, at least I won't buy it! Speaking of which, Apple has been Apple fans have been looking forward to the launch of new products for a long time, but it turns out that something like this is coming out, which is really disappointing!"

"..."

The exposure of the iPhone on the Internet naturally attracted the attention of mobile phone manufacturers such as Nokia, Ericsson, and Motorola.

The chairman of Nokia secretly smacked his tongue and said: "The stunning craftsmanship and design are really eye-catching, but I don't know what the functions and price are like..." At this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Haha, Chairman, you don't have to worry at all! You know, not only did Motorola fail to develop a touch-screen phone, but even the touch-screen phone we developed before at Nokia also failed. What does this mean... It means that consumers don't like it at all. This touch-screen phone!" A middle-aged man with a high nose and thick eyebrows laughed. "Apple's development of touch-screen phones is tantamount to self-destruction. Nokia has surpassed Apple and become the world's largest mobile phone manufacturer. Shang, it’s just around the corner!!!”

"Yes, Vice President Kyle is right, Apple is seeking its own demise!"

"Haha, do you want to open some champagne to celebrate!!"

"Of course!" Everyone laughed and nodded.

Seeing everyone's high confidence, the chairman of Nokia seemed to see Nokia's ambition to become the dominant mobile phone manufacturer, with a rosy look on his old frowning face.

…

The industry and the media are looking down on the iPhone, which is understandable because they don't understand the iPhone. Previously, various mobile phone manufacturers did launch touch screen mobile phones, but they were all single-touch screens, which are completely different from "multi-touch"! In addition, the powerful functions and content ecosystem of the iPhone are not comparable to those of other mobile phones.

At present, there are many people who ridicule the iPhone, but there are still many Apple fans who are full of confidence in the iPhone, especially some consumers who like appearance and can’t wait to buy an iPhone to take home now.

"Many people on the Internet are slandering the iPhone. It must be other mobile phone manufacturing companies that hired trolls!"

"That's right, these people are simply telling lies! I think other mobile phone manufacturers are jealous and afraid that the iPhone will take away their market share!"

"Haha, no matter what others say, I just like this phone. I think it's a good-looking phone!!!"

…

On the morning of June 18, a large group of reporters came under the Apple building and wanted to interview Steve Jobs about the iPhone.

"Jobs, why does the iPhone have such a bold design? Don't you know there is no market for touch-screen phones?"

"Mr. Jobs, please don't leave. Please answer our questions!"

Jobs looked calm, and under the protection of company security, he walked into the company without paying attention to reporters!

Before the press conference, Jobs would never introduce the functions of the iPhone in detail. It would be better not to explain it than to say it, which can arouse everyone's curiosity and discussion. On the day of the press conference, it will give everyone a huge surprise.

The reporters couldn't help but sigh as they watched Jobs go away, and then left one by one.

Then a European media reporter interviewed the chairman of Nokia and asked: "Hello, Mr. Marlowe, many people are not optimistic about Apple's iPhone. As the chairman of Nokia, what do you think of the iPhone?"

The chairman of Nokia said calmly: "The price of the touch screen is very expensive, so the iPhone will not be cheap. I think Apple pays too much attention to the appearance, but ignores the fundamentals of the mobile phone! Mobile phones are used to make calls. She is It is a tool for people to communicate with each other, but it is unpleasant to do something that is sensational! Perhaps it is for this reason that the iPhone has been questioned by everyone! The purpose of Nokia is to provide users with the best and most stable functions at the cheapest price We want most people to be able to afford mobile phones!"

"For example, in April this year, the first-generation flagship product of Nokia's N series, the N70, became very popular as soon as it was launched. More than 3 million units were sold in just a few months! The Nokia N70 combines fashion, functionality, business and other features. All in one, it can be called a flagship product..." As the Chairman of Nokia talked, he began to advertise his own products, talking eloquently and endlessly.

The reporters are speechless. I know your Nokia N70 is awesome, but now I’m asking you what you think of Apple’s iPhone...

After a while, the Nokia chairman talked about iPhone again.

"The Nokia N70 is so good, but it costs $400. Haha, I'm curious about how much the iPhone costs..."

When he said the last sentence, the corners of Nokia's chairman's mouth raised, with a hint of teasing in his tone.

The reporters' eyes lit up and they asked: "Mr. Marlow, you mean that the iPhone is not as good as the N70, but it may be more expensive than the N70?"

The chairman of Nokia smiled and said nothing, but this attitude was obviously his acquiescence.

The reporters returned to the company and immediately wrote their stories.

"Shocked! The chairman of Nokia actually commented on Apple's iPhone like this!!!"

"It's really shocking! The chairman of Nokia actually said such a thing in front of reporters!"
