Rebirth of the Evil Life

"Boss!" Melissa turned pale. Looking at a group of CEOs who were about to leave, she was in a state of confusion. Although I know that these CEOs may be showing off, they may not leave if they really want to. But she had no idea how to control the situation at the scene.

"Don't panic, it's just a bunch of rats!" Lin Feng sneered.

Even these people want to fish in troubled waters and make trouble here, and Lin Feng can suppress them with just a raise of his hands. The real trouble was with Steve Jobs. This guy is a truly powerful person. Because there are so many CEOs here, almost most of them are professional managers. Even if a few are not professional managers, they are just members of the family and do not have absolute decision-making power. On the contrary, Jobs can take over the power and decide the future direction of Apple.

"Everyone, this is my 'Second World' auction, not a vegetable market. I hope all presidents will abide by the following rules. Don't behave like a market lady." Lin Feng suddenly patted his head with a strange look on his face, "Vegetables Market aunt, do you know? Do you know what a market aunt is? She is the kind of person who likes to talk nonsense, has a very loud voice, behaves very selfishly, bargains randomly for anything she buys, and is very unruly. Do you know? ?”

The faces of many CEOs darkened. This Lin Feng really dared to compare them to market ladies. Damn it, did he really think they were easy to bully! Although they individually cannot compare with Lin Feng. But together, they are a force that cannot be ignored. Just when many CEOs were getting angry and looking for Lin Feng to reason, Jobs spoke.

"Everyone, we'd better abide by the rules. After all, this is an auction, not a vegetable market, and there are 1 billion Internet users around the world watching it!" Jobs calmed everyone down with a light word.

Indeed, this is a live auction. One billion Internet users around the world are watching. If they show their ugly face here, they will be in bad luck when they go back. Of course, not only is it bad luck, it may also affect the company's image. In an instant, everyone fell silent. Watch Jobs and see what he's going to do.

"Mr. Lin, you reported this auction. Naturally, we all have to abide by the rules. There is no rule without rules. Everyone has to abide by the rules. Therefore, I think you must also abide by the rules of the advertising industry. A month of advertising goes , We can't accept it. At least half a year of advertising, Mr. Lin, I hope you understand the difficulties of us advertisers!" Jobs stood up and said slowly.

Lin Feng's eyes narrowed slightly. With these words, Jobs forced himself to have no way out. Jobs asked these presidents to behave themselves. He also wanted to keep himself in line and not use his privileges to veto his offer.

"Mr. Lin, I think any listed company cannot refuse projects that bring huge benefits to the company!" Jobs smiled slightly.

This sentence was even more powerful, making Lin Feng unable to avoid it. As the chairman of a listed company, the purpose of everything is naturally to make money. Bring benefits to all shareholders. The current advertising auction will undoubtedly bring huge benefits to the ‘Second World’. If Lin Feng refuses, it will prevent the shareholders' meeting. This situation is very bad. The China Securities Regulatory Commission has reason to intervene in this auction.

Many CEOs nodded in agreement with Jobs' words. Lin Feng was finally defeated for once. Get them all here this time, hold such a public auction, and use them to increase the popularity and influence of the 'Second World'. This makes many company CEOs extremely angry and helpless. Now that Steve Jobs can teach Lin Feng a lesson, it would be great.

"Boss. What should I do?" Melissa looked worried.

Lin Feng's frown suddenly gave way to a faint smile.

"Yes, what Mr. Jobs said is absolutely correct. Since everyone has to abide by the rules, I will abide by the rules. Then this time we will change the rules and directly auction the advertising slots of the 'Second World' for the next year. Since it is In the next year, the auction price will not be 3.5 million US dollars, but 42 million US dollars! Please bid again!" Lin Feng said loudly.

"Boss!" Melissa exclaimed.

Advertising slots for the next year, in that case, at the beginning of next year, when ‘Apple’ and ‘Phantom Technology’ jointly launch new mobile phones, the ‘Second World’ game will be advertising ‘Apple’ mobile phones. This has an absolute impact on the advertising sales of ‘Phantom Technology’.

"Don't worry! The trend is on his side now, and I can't refuse. Otherwise, the US Securities Regulatory Commission may intervene, which will be even more troublesome!" Lin Feng said in a low voice.

This is the United States, and ‘Second World’ is also listed in the United States. Although it can raise enough funds through the market, it will also put Lin Feng under more restrictions. The world is always fair. When you gain something, you will also lose something.

But even if the advertising rank is changed to one year, Lin Feng is not afraid. It will be troublesome at best, but this does not mean that Apple will definitely win the final victory. Because Lin Feng knew what Apple's mobile phone looked like, but Jobs didn't know what his own phone looked like. As a 'Futurist' himself, Jobs was vigilant and aware of the crisis, but that didn't mean he could win.

"Everyone, make your bid!" Lin Feng said calmly.

Everyone looked sideways. Before this, based on Lin Feng's application, Lin Feng was unwilling to change the advertising price, but now Lin Feng suddenly changed his attitude. What's the reason? What trump card does Lin Feng have?

Jobs also had a trace of doubt on his face. What happened to Lin Feng's sudden change of attitude? What other trump cards does he have? But no matter what other trump cards he has, Apple will win this advertising spot.

"$300 million!" Jobs was the first to speak out. He believed that this price was enough to scare other auctioneers. To prevent other auctioneers from competing with Apple, by winning this price, when Apple officially launches its new mobile phone next year, it will completely overwhelm Lin Feng’s Phantom Technology.

As Jobs expected, when he shouted out the price of $300 million, everyone else fell silent. The annual advertising fee of 300 million U.S. dollars is very high. This is a price that any company needs to think deeply about. What's more, this is still a brand new market, which makes many CEOs even more afraid to bid easily. In their view, only these high-tech companies dare to try these new things at will. Because they make money easily and the added value of their products is high. Therefore, they dare to bid so easily. Those who work in the industry do not dare to bid easily and try new things at will.

Jobs smiled disdainfully at the silence of many CEOs. Times are progressing and society is progressing, so people's thoughts must also progress. Otherwise, they will be eliminated by society. And these people, in Jobs' view, are a group of people who are limited to the traditional thinking of the past. In today's society, changes are too fast. If you take one step slowly, you will be many steps behind. In the past ten years, society has not changed much, but now the changes in one year are enough to stun you. And if you don’t try new things, you will fall behind and be eliminated.

After a moment of silence, Jobs chuckled.

"Mr. Lin, it seems that no one is bidding anymore." Jobs said with a smile. For today's advertising segment, he has already thought about his future plans. He has a huge advertising plan. Starting from the day he took the advertising spot, he will run an advertisement every day for 365 days, and the lines of the advertisement will be different every day. Lin Feng's ad spot lasted only 5 seconds, which was just right for Steve Jobs.

5 seconds is enough to introduce a feature of ‘Apple’. Jobs planned to spend a year slowly instilling all the functions and features of the ‘Apple’ mobile phone into the public. By then, when the ‘Apple’ mobile phone is launched, consumers will also be familiar with ‘Apple’ features. Will accept it naturally. And this will become one of the cultures of ‘Apple’ and ‘an-apple-a-day’ that Jobs is prepared to advocate.

Of course, the so-called ‘an-apple-a-day’ is an-apple-a-day-keeps-rs-away, which means if you eat an apple every day, the disease will stay away from you. For Jobs, he wanted Apple to become an essential item for people every day.

Lin Feng looked around and found that no one was bidding again. It was probably won by Steve Jobs today.

"Hmph! Who dares to raise a price when the price is so high in one breath!" Melissa muttered unconvinced. Jobs's price was so fierce, he looked like he would give it to me, who would dare to increase the price? If you can't get it and increase the price, wouldn't you offend Steve Jobs? The CEOs of these companies are not willing to offend Jobs easily. Of course, if the auctioneer was not Lin Feng, perhaps these people would raise the price, but since it was Lin Feng, they were not willing to let Lin Feng make money for nothing.

"Thank you for your support! Thank you very much! When my Apple mobile phone is launched, I will give each of you an engineering machine as a gift!" Jobs said with a smile.

Many CEOs smiled and thanked them. Everyone accepted Jobs' kindness. Although they also knew that Jobs was promoting his mobile phone, they always felt happy to be able to stimulate Lin Feng.

Of course, the only one who is unhappy among the people is Nokia President Pieces. Nokia is now the leader in the mobile phone market, and its market share is almost saturated. If Apple wants to come in, it will grab Nokia's share. In this case, he can feel better. He wanted to raise the price, but seeing the advertising share of 300 million US dollars this year, he really lacked the courage.

The price is really too high! Moreover, Nokia is already the leader, so it is not cost-effective to spend so much "wasted money" on advertising bidding.

Lin Feng shook his head. It seemed that this time he could only let Jobs win one game first. (To be continued...)
