Technology Bigshot

Chapter 66: The Horizon Hidden in the Shadows

After the graduation ceremony, Ren Hong's trip to Beijing is coming to an end. This trip has been the longest and most frequent exposure to the public since he founded XlouS. But obviously, people Interest in him has not diminished at all.

There is no doubt that Ren Hong and his deeds are a miraculous dream story to the outside world. The public wants to know him, and the media will naturally flock to him. Even so, these media will not be as reckless as paparazzi chasing stars. Ren Hong and stars are not at the same level after all.

There is no paparazzi who would squat unscrupulously. In the face of such a super rich, the resources in their hands are not comparable to stars. Even if they have so-called scandals and other ordinary media in their hands, they would not dare to disclose it. This is why such a big boss Characters rarely have tidbits.

Because the resources and capabilities in the hands of these people are not comparable to those of small media and tabloids without background, no one will lose their jobs because of stupidity, but Ren Hong obviously will not have any scandals, after all tech party.

Ren Hong left his alma mater, but he did not withdraw back to Hainan immediately. The reason was naturally his brothers. In addition to attending the forum summit, another important thing when he came to the capital this time was to take his initial team away.

This takes time. In addition to handling the tedious procedures of the school, his brothers also have to communicate with their families. It is reasonable that these things are not urgent. Ren Hong did not express too much anxiety. Although the Chinese Academy of Sciences has recruited several times, this man It cannot be forced. Whether it is the Chinese Academy of Sciences or Ren Hong, they will respect their choice, but their choice is the same, which is to follow the boss back to the company headquarters.

Just because of that sentence: Change the world!

......

California, USA, Apple spaceship headquarters, senior conference room.

Apple executives got together at one point. Cook has no idea how many meetings he has held these days. The most hateful thing is that his trip to China a few days ago made him miserable. After he saw the photo. At that time, Cook wanted to cry in the toilet and couldn't wake up.

How many times he has cursed, that damn British reporter, he can't wait to buy the "Daily Mail" immediately, but his reason tells him that it is obviously impossible to do so, it is too disgraceful and will greatly affect his own The future, even if resentment has to be endured.

The picture published by the "Daily Mail" has a magical chemical reaction with the recent dilemma of Apple. Obviously, the media around the world all think that Cook's "sorrowful" eyes in the photo reflect the difficulties of Apple at this moment. embarrassing situation.

Faced with the suppression of new products from Chinese technology companies, the iPhone series is almost powerless to fight back, and Apple has not responded to outside doubts. Not to mention the feeling, which is undoubtedly disappointing, the collapse of the company's market value is the best proof.

Not only for Apple, but many American media and even mainstream media also pointed to the entire domestic technology circle, especially the Silicon Valley technology circle, with a strong sense of accusation. The rise of XlouS has ruthlessly trampled on the technology that the United States has always been proud of.

A few years ago, "HUAWEI" appeared in that eastern country, and now there is a giant company that is even more vicious than "HUAWEI".

The "territory" of the United States is "falling down" step by step. The red world from the East is like a young man at the peak of integrity, he is running fast, and the United States is already like a dying old man. Obviously, it is difficult for them to accept the fact that a country that they once regarded as backward has created technological products that make them helpless.

"So, what's the plan?" Cook said in a deep voice, looking at everyone in the conference room.

At the oval conference table, Cook sat at the chief, looking around the company executives on both sides. After a while, as he spoke, an executive on the right took out a page of documents and said:

"To clear up some channel relationships, I will launch a spokesperson or organization to sue XlouS's product "Instant Online Interpreter" for monopoly, and launch a spokesperson or organization to sue XlouS's wearable smartphone devices for technology monopoly..."

"We will use the company's relevant resources to start inside the XlouS company, send experienced commercial spies and even seek the government to ask for agents to infiltrate to obtain the other party's core technology, which requires communication with the government..."

"Using resources to hinder XlouS's global business expansion, as long as it is unfavorable, it can be implemented, and there is..."

Everyone listened to this executive for nearly eight minutes. All of the plans he explained were aimed at matrix technology and conspiracy. As long as they could be used, they would not be stingy. It was simply vicious.

"Then...that's it!" Tim Cook, who was silent for a long time, finally said.

Tim Cook, who was born as an engineer, is actually quite ashamed of such an approach, which is equivalent to shattering his proud insistence on technology. But the pressure from the board of directors makes it difficult for him to resist and cope with all kinds of pressure. Cook is well aware of what he heard on the board: borrow or steal it by any means! The board has only one requirement, and that is profit! If you can't do it, let someone else take over.

Long before the birth of Matrix Technology, Apple's performance was not as good as it was in the past. Although Cook has doubled Apple's market value since he became the company's CEO, it has continued to maintain high profits until now, but its business growth rate has continued to decline. Although Subtle but appearing to be getting weaker and weaker, it also reflects that the potential of this giant company seems to stop there.

Now that the Chinese technology company Matrix Technology XlouS has launched a global offensive against the iPhone with the "S-1", the iPhone is almost irresistible, and Cook has no choice.

At the same time, on the border of Wisconsin, USA, there is no steel and concrete building with more than five floors in this area, let alone a skyscraper. There is an old manor house here, dating back to the end of the 18th century, almost as old as America, which saw America from its birth to its rise to its hegemony today. This manor has a history of more than 200 years, and it has not been run down until now.

Three elderly people sat in a small room in the manor, while a young middle-aged man with a personal laptop stared at the screen intently without saying a word. The room is very quiet, the facilities in the room are out of tune with today's modern world, the decoration here is full of European Renaissance atmosphere, but the middle-aged man wearing modern clothes and the personal computer in front of him is out of tune with the environment.

The smoke emitted by the cigar spreads gently in the not-so-bright room, and the blue-silk-like plumes of smoke drift slowly in the air.

The middle-aged man finally closed the computer.

"The result is here?" a man over 60 years old said to the middle-aged man, with a long and rich gray-white beard on his face, and a Cuban cigar in his hand.

"It's figured out, Mr. Mellon," the middle-aged man said.

"How much?" Another man said. He had a tall nose, deep eye sockets, and a black mustache on his upper lip.

The middle-aged man replied respectfully: "If XlouS operates extremely well to maximize its commercial value, the net profit revenue will be equal to the current market value of Apple. The other party is completely a novice in terms of business strategy, at least on the surface. Yes, as far as their company is concerned, in fact, if it is split, reorganized and reintegrated, it can create more business value. There are too many emerging technologies inside, and it can even subvert many contemporary hardware giant companies. , has great potential in many fields, but they only made one 'S-1' and only sold 'S-1' with these cutting-edge technologies, which is an outrageous huge loss..."

For these three people, the youngest middle-aged man in the audience is very afraid, afraid of everything about those three people. These three people represent the Mellon consortium, the Morgan consortium, and the Rockefeller consortium. Just these identities are enough to shock him. Not to mention that they have other identities. People from the top ten consortiums in the United States are listed here. In the face of such existence, middle-aged people only feel that they are insignificant like an ant facing three elephants.

"Yes, sir!" The middle-aged man motioned when he saw the man holding the cigar, he immediately understood and left quickly. The identity of this person represents the Rockefeller Foundation.

"$500 billion... net profit~" he pondered.

"Unfortunately, this company is neither listed nor in the United States, otherwise it wouldn't be so troublesome." The middle-aged man representing the Morgan consortium said leisurely.

"In that country of the East, our influence is indeed difficult to penetrate..." Rockefeller pondered.

"Hehe... all we want is wealth." Mellon chuckled, with a few wrinkles on his forehead and the corners of his eyes. He took out a coin from his chest pocket and put it on the table. A pyramid is engraved on the pattern, and the top of the pyramid is replaced by a one-eyed. It is inlaid on the top of the pyramid as if looking down at all beings. The pattern depicted on both sides of this coin is definitely not the currency of any country.

"Let him join the club?" Rockefeller was slightly surprised and said.

"It's young, but it's a good way," Morgan said thoughtfully.

"The value he can create is enough to join the Freemasonry, regardless of age. As long as he can bring enough benefits, he has already proved it. Give him a 'deacon' position first." Mellon said indifferently.
