Reborn Millennium Player

October 9, Apple.

Jobs handed Cook the New York Times and said, "Tim, look, he said Apple has lost its soul."

When the title "Huaxia Lu: Apple is the best "follower" of logic" came into view, Cook was shocked, "Lu is really annoying!"

"I think it's quite interesting, don't you think?"

Jobs stroked his beard and said: "Just like Bill before, Microsoft can't target Apple and can only live with its mouth. The more this bastard Lu says this, the more it shows that there is nothing we can do against it."

Cook nodded and agreed: "The sales of iPhone 3GS are very good. Not only in China, but also in the global smartphone sales, it is second only to Logic. The growth rate of applications in the App Store is not inferior to Logic. Apple has entered the right track of the mobile era.

"

"Next step."

Jobs said seriously: "We want to completely eliminate Logic's first-mover advantage. I want to see whether my iPhone or his iPhone disappears first."

“The current ranking of global mobile phone manufacturers, Nokia is the first, Samsung is the second, Logic is the third, Sony Ericsson is the fourth, BlackBerry is the fifth, we are ranked seventh, but in the field of smartphones, we are undoubtedly the third

two."

Cook reminded: "However, because the Android system is open source, more and more manufacturers have entered the ranks of smartphones, Samsung and HTC are the most prominent, and we cannot take it lightly."

Jobs sneered, looking at Samsung and HTC like chickens and dogs, but they really deserved to fight him——

There's only Lu Fei, that's all!

"Steve, regarding the next iPhone 4, should we also consider a larger screen?" Cook suggested. "The sales of logicX2 seem to have verified users' demand for large screens..."

"3.5 inches is enough!"

Jobs held the appearance model of iPhone 4 and gestured: "This is the 'golden size'. In terms of one-handed operation, it can basically cover the thumb without any obstruction. A larger screen is too stupid. We can't learn from it."

Lu did something stupid."

Make money, don't be shabby.

Cook was already accustomed to his stubbornness and changed the subject: "How is your physical condition now?"

"I'm fine, quite fine."

"But your wife told me you have a hormonal imbalance?"

"Lauren, she doesn't understand. My team of doctors told me that they have found a 'relatively easy' treatment."

"But be sure to take care. We still have a long battle to fight with logic. Apple must not lose you as its commander-in-chief."

"Don't worry, I will never fall before I knock down this bastard Lu! Absolutely not!"

Jobs' tone was full of determination.

Cook looked at him without saying a word. In the first half of the year, he finally accepted the advice and underwent surgery to remove the pancreatic tumor. However, he looked withered and wasted day by day. It was hard not to worry about his health.

"The key to defeating logic is to innovate. We must launch products that are more advanced, shocking and revolutionary than logic. They are black technology products that only belong to Apple."

Jobs said seriously: "For example, iPad."

Cook turned his attention to the first-generation iPad prototype, which looked like a super-large-screen iPhone 3GS. There were still some vague traces of imitating the Kindle, but only a little bit.

Physical buttons, only one Home button.

Comparing Kindle 4, he had a vague premonition: "Steve, iPad must speed up its progress. Logical Kindle is no longer a simple e-reader. Maybe the year after tomorrow, maybe next year, once Lu realizes the future of tablet computers, direction, it is very likely to collide with our iPad again."

"Tim, I'm going to give you another hard trip this year."

Jobs asked him to attend Logic's press conference.

Cook happily accepted the order and arrived at the San Francisco Art Center on time the next day. There was a long queue at the door and it was endless as far as the eye could see.

It was densely packed with people everywhere.

Under the accumulation of marketing and innovation over time, logical users, especially loyal fans, have become fanatical believers.

Perhaps friendly companies like Nokia, Samsung, and Sony Ericsson couldn't understand Lu Fei's business logic, but he saw it clearly.

Because Lu Fei’s strategy is almost the same as that of Steve Jobs.

Packaging technology products into a high-end work of art full of high emotions gives the Logic brand a unique technological charm, which makes people have instinctive expectations.

The most brilliant thing is that it moisturizes things silently.

I am willing to be Mr. Lu’s dog!

Someone who can turn a product into a work of art, turn a brand into a religious cult, and turn himself into an IT leader——

Only Steve Jobs and Lu Feier!

Really, if you have Gang Leader Qiao, why not Master Lu!

………………

In the lounge, the electronic wall clock on the wall shows——

9:50.

Lu Fei opened his arms and allowed the staff to wear the black box transceiver on him, while listening to Su Zifeng's report.

"The total amount is US$255.6 million in cash, and Transmeta shareholders will receive compensation of US$18.7 to US$19 per share."

Su Zifeng adjusted her glasses, "If an agreement is signed within these two months, the acquisition is expected to be completed in the first quarter of next year."

"How much improvement will this Transmeta Ark chip bring?" Lu Fei pinned the microphone to his collar.

"The CPU launched by Transmeta is very suitable for notebooks and PCs that focus on low power and heat dissipation capabilities. Although it is not as good as Intel and AMD in terms of performance, it can fully compete with Cyrix in the low-end market. With Transmeta’s patents and team, Ark’s technical reserves will be qualitatively improved.”

Su Zifeng's focus is on the second half. Transmeta has also accumulated experience in blade servers and tablet computer processors.

In the future, we can get rid of Freescale and develop independently.

"I have no problem. Let's report it to the board of directors."

Lu Fei moved out of Logic’s exclusive rotating chairman system earlier than Ren Zhengfei. After all, Logic’s size is getting bigger and bigger, including Logic, Fuxin, Yangtze River Storage, ThePaper Technology, Spotify, beats...

Not to mention that there are so many departments and related subsidiaries with controlling shares that one person simply cannot manage.

But the power of veto is firmly in hand.

"Okay, Mr. Lu."

Su Zifeng raised a smile.

Never had such a wonderful start to my career!

"What does NVIDIA say?"

Lu Fei took a sip of water.

"Huang Renxun very much welcomes us to visit NVIDIA after the press conference." Su Zifeng answered truthfully.

"It's almost time, it's time for us to appear."

Lu Fei nodded with satisfaction, then looked up at the wall clock, strode out of the lounge, and walked through the backstage corridor.

At this time, 10 o'clock in the morning.

The venue was packed with seats.

In sight, you can easily spot the figures of technology giants, Nokia's Kallasvuo, Qualcomm's Paul Jacobs, Qimonda's Luo Jianhua, Apple's Cook, Nvidia's Huang Renxun, HTC's Wang Xuehong...

The four major wireless communications manufacturers in the United States, including American Telephone and Telegraph Company, Verizon Communications, and T-Mobile, are also present.

In full view of the crowd, a spotlight focused on the exit of the stage, and Lu Fei was dressed as usual. The only difference was that he was wearing an Iron Man mask on his face.

Along with the background music of "Iron Man", we walked to the center of the stage.

"Snapped."

"Bah bang bang."

The entire audience stood up and shouted, bursting into applause and cheers.

"I know you know who I am, but I still want you to tell me, tell me out loud, who am I?"

"iron Man!"

“Silicon Valley Iron Man!

"

"Tony Lu! Tony Lu!

"

The excited crowd gave the most enthusiastic and passionate response.

Especially when Lu Fei took off the Iron Man mask, the screams reached a climax.

"Yes, it's me."

“Welcome everyone to our logic launch conference.”

Lu Fei said the opening lines that he knew by heart.

"Although I don't want to be too high-profile, I have to say that Logic is now the second largest mobile device company in the world!"

“Beyond Sony’s mobile devices and business.”

"Beyond Apple, surpassed Samsung."

"Of course we have not surpassed Nokia in terms of quantity, but we have surpassed Nokia in terms of profit. The next logical goal is to become the world's number one mobile device company!"

"Whoa whoa whoa~"

Cheers and applause continued, and all Logic members sitting in the front row straightened their backs and felt a sense of pride.

Cook lowered his face and secretly glanced at his business partners with his peripheral vision. His expressions were more or less ugly, especially those of Nokia's top executives, including CEO Kallasvuo, who had solemn expressions.

At this moment, the logos of manufacturers that have been involved in the smartphone business in the past year appeared on the PPT on the projection screen.

Samsung, HP, Motorola, HTC, Shenzhou...

A line of words appeared on the PPT on the next page:

“2008:Year of the smartphone?”

(The year of the smartphone?)

"Because of the excellent performance of iPhone and Logic series, more and more manufacturers have launched their own Android smartphones and closely followed Logic's footsteps, which is very, very wise."

Lu Fei walked to a rectangular display cabinet and took off the covering gauze. There were mobile phones of friends and businessmen inside.

"There is a saying in Buddhism: It is a great thing to have the mentality of a beginner, but it is even more difficult to be willing to imitate and learn like a beginner, especially Apple."

"Even the iPhone is only one letter different from our iPhone, so it's a bit too much to learn."

As he spoke, the slides behind him clearly displayed——

Named "one of the best logic imitators of the year" by Apple.

"Hahaha~"

Suddenly, laughter erupted in the venue.

Ballmer laughed the loudest. Microsoft is Apple's mortal enemy. The more Apple suffers, the happier it becomes. He still doesn't forget to ridicule:

"Tim, Apple is plagiarizing again!"

“How can borrowing inspiration from friends be considered plagiarism!”

Cook's face turned red and he spoke a series of difficult words.

The words "pay attention to user experience" and "good artists imitate, great artists steal" etc. made everyone burst into laughter, and the whole room was filled with a happy atmosphere.

Cook was extremely depressed, but he couldn't express his pain.

As long as Apple uses Logic's capacitive touch screen, sliding unlock and other technology patents, it will have to continue to tolerate Lu Fei's ridicule. The key is to be patient.

Apple still has to pay patent licensing fees to Logic!

"We don't mind copying, not at all."

"What I'm most afraid of is that we don't have anything that our friends can copy, which means that our logic will stop moving forward."

"Andersen has a story called "The Red Shoes."

"After the heroine puts on the beautiful red dance shoes, she can only dance non-stop. She can't stop dancing for a moment. She can't stop until someone cuts off her feet. Logic has never stopped since the era of smart phones began. From the moment I fell into the curse of red shoes, I had no choice but to innovate!"

Lu Fei exerted 200% of his eloquence, causing everyone present to form the same idea——

As long as Logic launches a revolutionary product, others will imitate it and catch up with it. However, there are too many opponents, too powerful, and too bullying. Only by constantly innovating can we ensure that we are not caught up in the tide of imitators. submerged.

"Come on! Logic!"

"we support you!"

"Yes! We support you! Support logic!"

In an instant, he won the sympathy and awe of most people.

What kind of characters are the most popular in movies and TV shows?

Beautiful, powerful and miserable!

Today's logic, just like Huawei and BYD, the more they are plagiarized and suppressed, it is equivalent to the abuse of fans in the fan circle, the stronger the brand power and user cohesion will be. Only by relying on one's own technology can one break through the encirclement and interception of peers. Can fly directly on the spot.

If you are punished, become a Buddha immediately!

Seeing that the atmosphere was almost heightened, Lu Fei thanked him repeatedly and walked to a display cabinet with a smile:

“Is it possible for logic to stop innovation?”

"It's possible that this will happen, but it's probably not going to happen, and now, let's witness the new direction of smartphones..."

As he said this, he unveiled the black cloth, and at the same time, two pictures of the front and back of "lphone 4" were displayed on the projected screen.

It is vaguely a combination of Galaxy S4 and Mate10.

Next are the configuration parameters:

The world’s first Qualcomm Snapdragon S2 chip,

The world's first Texas Instruments OMAP3430...

The words "world's first" are eye-catching and huge, and it is difficult not to attract the attention and lenses of the audience. However, when I saw "the world's first lens for card authentication", I was completely dumbfounded.

This "certification" touches on the blind spots of knowledge.

"Last year, logicX2 redefined mobile phone photography."

"Front and rear cameras, dual rear cameras, and future face unlocking, these camera capabilities are all based on hardware alone. Now, we have added software."

"lphone4 is one step closer to being comparable to a SLR!"

Lu Fei held up two black and white iPhone 4s with both hands.

Damn it?

How can this be done?

Including Cook, Apple, Nokia, Samsung and other peers were all dumbfounded. Originally, they followed logic come out.

nnd, the track suddenly changed!

Not only the hardware, but also the software algorithm!

"Wow!"

Regardless of whether you are knowledgeable or not, when you hear that Laika has certified this lens, just like the "ISO90001 certification" seen on some products, you have no doubt that the camera function of Logic Phone is very powerful and very advanced. .

After all, Laika lenses are the benchmark in the camera field.

"But meeting Laika's shooting standards is not an ordinary thing. In order to obtain Laika's lens certification, the logistical hardships required are unimaginable by other mobile phone manufacturers."

Lu Fei showed 300% of his acting skills.

He continued his misfortune in a low voice, telling a story similar to "Edison experimented with countless types of filaments."

"We have upgraded the parts procurement and algorithms of iPhone 4, and conducted countless tests."

"That's not a small expense for logic."

"But it's all worth the effort."

“Once again we are far ahead of our competitors!”

On the projection screen behind Lu Fei, photos of the same scene taken by different mobile phones soon appeared.

Although it is not directly marked, "a certain A mobile phone", "a certain N mobile phone", "a certain S mobile phone", etc. There is no silver three hundred taels here. Whoever sees the initial letters will not guess it.

Cook, Kallasvuo and others looked extremely ugly.

Especially when "way ahead" keeps echoing in your ears, it's simply more disgusting than eating a fly.

"Laika lenses have very high requirements for the color, noise, and texture of pictures, as well as very high optical quality, and have extremely high requirements for the control of dispersion, purple edges, and vignetting of pictures..."

"Some of these have been realized, and some are in the process of being realized."

"But in the future, all logic will be realized!"

"Bring users an extraordinary experience that is no less than a SLR!"

"It is worth mentioning that this is an exclusive cooperation between Leica and Logic, and Leica exclusively licenses the technology to Logic."

"Unfortunately, this thing cannot be copied or stolen. Friends and businessmen may have to find their own solutions."

Lu Fei shrugged, looking weird.

"Hahaha~"

"Bravo! Lu!"

“Go to hell with your friendly businessmen.”

"Logic leads technology, and the world belongs to the Three-Body Problem!"

The fans present were in an instant climax, especially because the "camera lens certification" could not be copied, and they immediately felt satisfied with a sense of superiority.

It’s fun, it’s fun!

Now let’s see how Apple and Nokia copy them!

Looking at the noisy scene, Cook had mixed emotions. The comprehensive improvement of lphohe4's software and hardware integration simply made them chase in despair, and despair in the pursuit.

There is also this "beautiful, powerful but miserable" marketing.

Although he can't see all the tricks, he can still see some clues. This may be one of the most awesome tricks he has ever seen in his career!

"Here, I would like to thank all hardware manufacturers, telecom operators, software and comrades in the Internet industry. Without you, there would be no success for our logic."

Lu Fei temporarily withdrew his magical power and introduced him in a formal manner.

According to the standard process, beats series headphones, lmusic series music players, products, performance, parameters, and functions are revealed one after another.

No big problems, but no big surprises either.

It gives people an inexplicable feeling of anticlimactic.

But Cook felt more and more something was wrong, because the Kindle, which had been introduced in the middle, was actually displayed at the end.

"We reinvented the music player."

"Headphones reinvented."

“The smartphone was reinvented.”

"Today in 2008, I will release another magical and revolutionary product to you. Before that, I want you to think about whether there is a third device between smartphones and computers.

The space? Between the two?”

Lu Fei asked questions and soon received various answers, such as netbooks, handheld computers, and kindles.

"Yes, but kindle is just an e-reader."

"It's not good enough. This device must perform exceptionally well in some key areas, such as Internet access, video, e-books, books, music, and games. It must be better than a mobile phone or a laptop, otherwise it will have no meaning in existence."

It’s broken, it’s broken!

Cook's heart skipped a beat and he felt restless.

"Some people were talking about netbooks just now, but netbooks are just crappy, low-profile laptops that not only run slowly, but also have low-quality displays and run bloated PC software."

"So it cannot be a third-category device. This problem has troubled me for a long time. Finally, we made a breakthrough with Kindle."

"Now I'm going to show it to you for the first time."

Lu Fei walked to the last cabinet covered with thick black cloth. It was so mysterious that the people in the front row couldn't help but stretch their necks, and the people in the back stood on tiptoes without even daring to blink.

Cook couldn't sit still anymore, swallowed his saliva, and saw a silver-gray metallic tablet appearing in front of his eyes.

"Everyone, kindlepad1, K1!"

Lu Fei held this tablet in his hands that looked like a Huawei M3 but had a 9.7-inch screen. The metal sandblasting process made the back look polished and shiny under the light.

"Hiss~"

Cook was shocked for a moment, and his legs stood still as if they were taking root.

Oh no, no, we are substitutes again!
