I Am the President of the University

Pretty Country, California, Cupertino.

Apple Park, the Apple spaceship headquarters building, designed by Steve Jobs during his lifetime, was put into use in 2017.

Cook sat in his office, looking down at the desktop, motionless.

It seems to be in a daze, or thinking about something.

Following his line of sight, there was a mobile phone with a chrysanthemum logo printed on the back of the neat table.

"Whoo~"

He slowly exhaled a turbid breath, as if this could guide the irritable air in his chest.

Reach out and play with the phone.

After a while, a sigh sounded in the office.

"It's such a devilish technique, it's a pity."

Today is October 3, and Apple's stock price continued to fall as soon as the stock market opened. Not surprisingly, it will fall by more than four or five points today.

In the past two days, 200 billion US dollars have been directly evaporated.

What does this mean?

It shows that the shareholders of the beautiful country are not optimistic about Apple.

And the culprit behind this turmoil is...

Cook looked up at the YouTube interface on the computer screen, which was playing a review video, which he had actually played on a loop several times.

"200 billion dollars can buy billions of photonic screens."

Speaking of which, Cook couldn't help frowning.

The boss of Guanghua Semiconductor turned out to be the president of a university.

It is normal for a university to conduct scientific research, but it is very strange to produce it by itself after it is developed.

Directly license patents to major mobile phone brands. As long as each mobile phone is equipped with a photonic screen, the other party will have money in the account.

You don't have to do anything, build factories, recruit workers, or be in charge of production, so you can just lie down and collect money, right?

He really didn't understand what this guy named Chen Hao was thinking!

Why is the money sent to the door still rejected?

in this world,

Are there really people who don't want money?

After complaining for a while, Cook made a phone call.

"Dr. Howard, I want to know how far the lab's research on photonic screens is?"

Dr. Howard is in charge of Apple's internal top-secret laboratory, which develops world-leading technologies!

The laboratory gathers all the talented engineers in the United States, and many technologies applied by Apple are born here.

And this laboratory, the outside world only knows that it exists, not even the name. (The author's bacteria can't be found)

The other party was silent for a while, and then said discouragedly:

"I'm sorry! The knowledge designed by this photonic screen technology is too complicated, and we can't crack it for the time being."

Hearing this sentence, Cook suppressed his anger and asked:

"How did Guanghua University in Huaxia develop? This university is not ranked in the top 100 of our beautiful country! And our laboratory has gathered the world's top talents. You tell me that it can't be cracked?"

"I can only say...the other party's technology in materials is already ahead of this era."

Howard sighed and understood Cook's current state. After all, it is a major crisis for Apple!

He also has countless troubles in his heart. How did the other party develop the photonic screen?

"The photonic screen was proposed by scholars in the scientific community a few years ago, but it is a conceptual technology. All scientists in the world cannot solve this problem in diamond materials, and in this most advanced cherry blossom country, it also requires 5 It takes more than a year to break through. So... the emergence of this technology in Huaxia is incredible."

After a phone call with Howard, Cook hung up and turned his chair to think alone.

Did the other party acquire alien technology?

Otherwise, it cannot explain why this technology was born in a Chinese university!

Thinking of Guanghua University's recent big move on chips, the optical core is even more outrageous than the photonic screen.

But now, he has a feeling.

Cook said something that he couldn't believe: "Can they really make a light core?"

Photon screen + optical core, that's a fart!

Go bankrupt directly!

At this moment, he regrets it a little!

At first, I thought that as long as sanctions were imposed on the chip, the other party would definitely beg for mercy without the chip.

Unexpectedly, it forced the other party to unite and make chips.

In the magical country of Huaxia, when no foreign enemy intervenes, there will be violent infighting.

But once a foreign enemy appears, there will be unprecedented unity.

"Dong dong!"

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Please come in."

Entering was his secretary, Sophia.

"Boss, several directors of the company are going to hold an emergency board meeting this afternoon."

As for the reason, of course, it is because the company's stock price has been impacted by the photonic screen in the past two days.

Cook nodded expressionlessly and said, "Okay, I know, is there anything else?"

Sophia shook her head and was turning around to leave, but was stopped by Cook.

"Will send me the phone number of Chen Hao, the president of Guanghua University."

"Ok."

In a blink of an eye, it was afternoon.

Apple's ad hoc board of directors also ended.

Cook left the conference room expressionlessly, and dragged his tired body back to his place.

This board meeting is just to hope that Apple can place an order for Guanghua Semiconductor as soon as possible. As long as Apple's mobile phone is also equipped with a photonic screen, all problems will naturally be solved.

As for the entity list of the Ministry of Commerce of the beautiful country, it would be good to directly lift the chip blockade on Huaxing.

They don't care about the confrontation between Zhong and Piao, as long as their own interests are not affected.

It's just that they seem to have collective amnesia, and Huaxing's chip sanctions were collectively promoted by these capitalists.

Now, in order to boost the stock price, I am thinking of lifting the sanctions in exchange for Guanghua Photonics Screen.

Simply shameless.

As for Cook, of course it's fine.

These major shareholders prefer Cook to Jobs.

Cook is an excellent CEO. Apple has become the most valuable company in its hands. At the same time, it is no longer a proud leader. With popularity, it is more like a company.

The ability of Jobs has nothing to say, but in terms of management, he is a rude manager with a notoriously bad temper. If he does not meet his requirements, he will scold him in minutes. On the contrary, Cook is very detail-oriented and patient.

But that doesn't mean Cook's requirements are low.

Cook likes to ask questions to his subordinates. If you can answer the 10 questions he asks you every time, he will ask you 9 questions a day for the next year. But if you get one of them wrong, he will increase the question to 20, 30.

This is a wolf annihilation that has changed the entire corporate culture of Apple by himself!

Cook has the nickname "The King of the Supply Chain".

His comprehensive thinking and layout capabilities for supply chain management and production operations are exactly what Steve Jobs and other design and product geniuses do not have.

This is also one of the important reasons why Jobs and the company's board of directors chose him to take over Apple in the "post-Jobs era".

Even Jobs once said, "Cook is the best employee I've ever had."

Some people conclude that there are two major factors for the success of Apple, which are Jobs' aesthetics + Cook's values.

But what's interesting is that on Huaxia's Zhihu, or the entire Internet, if you ask Cook/Apple about it, you will only come to two conclusions:

1. Cook is Apple's sinner;

2. Apple is going out of business next month.

A company that has become a global technology giant must have something special.

It is not sad to be defeated by the other party. It is sad that it does not recognize the strength of the other party, but instead finds a bunch of reasons to criticize Apple and Cook.

A man who can lead Apple to become stronger and stronger is actually looked down upon?

For the strong, even if they are not on the same path as the other party, they should have the respect they deserve.

Heron Island, Egret International Hotel.

Chen Hao had just finished breakfast when a phone call from a beautiful country called.

Looking at the number, he muttered with some doubts:

"Pretty country? Who?"

Although there is no note, it may be a phone call from an acquaintance.

[Book Friends Benefits] You can get cash or coins when you read books, and iPhone 12 and Switch are waiting for you to draw! Pay attention to the vx public account [Book Friends Base Camp] to get it!

Don't think about it, connect.

What he didn't expect was that the caller turned out to be Apple's Cook.

"Hello, Mr. Chen Hao, I'm Cook, CEO of Apple, and I want to talk to you..."

ps: Ask for a recommended ticket and ask for a monthly pass! There are so few tickets recently, crying...

It is really difficult to code words in winter. Fortunately, the update was not delayed until 12 o'clock today, which can be regarded as a small improvement! Update as much as possible tomorrow!
