The Era of Magic Technology

(It’s my birthday in two days, so I have some things to do, and I’m a little tired. I’m eighteen years old in a blink of an eye. Please forgive me. There’s still one update today, and two updates will be resumed the day after tomorrow. Sorry!)

After being rejected by Magic Technology, Apple announced the public news the next day. Apple's new mobile phone will be launched soon, and the time will be just a week later!

Therefore, if Lenovo and Xiaomi's mobile phone products enter the United States together at this time, it will create problems for the United States.

That is whether to let it go or not to let it go!

Let it go, in the final analysis, it is to put Magic Technology's products into the US market. With the super performance of the Rubik's Cube mobile phone, it is estimated that Apple will be difficult to resist, and it will have an impact on the US mobile phone industry; but if it is not released, Xiaomi and Lenovo will also be included If it is blocked, it will completely tear the skin off with the Chinese government. After all, you can’t block the entire mobile phone industry in China, so China will definitely not sit idly by, and it is likely to retaliate against the United States. Trade blockade.

The current situation in the United States can be described as difficult, with internal and external troubles.

India and the Arab League have been confronting the US fleet in the Indian Ocean and the Arabian Sea, and the two sides seem to be fighting. The two major regions of India and the Arab League have also been actively preparing for war, while rectifying the interior, while expanding the army on a large scale.

The United States also convened a NATO combined fleet of 100,000 people through the NATO meeting, which is expected to depart within half a year. This will be a huge military expenditure. The most basic requirement for those NATO member states to send troops is for the United States to pay for military expenses. Otherwise, why would they help you fight? After all, when the Arab League was established, it was publicly announced that it would never target Europe. Now many countries in Europe are used to it. As long as others don’t come to their door, they don’t want to participate in the war at all.

Therefore, the United States spent a huge price in forming this combined fleet.

In addition, the U.S. domestic economy is now in a recession. The two pillar industries of energy and automobiles are slowly recovering, and automobile sales are slowly increasing!

Under such circumstances, if China, the main trading country of the United States, falls out with the United States and imposes economic sanctions on each other, the U.S. economy may really face collapse, and many manufacturing and agricultural companies will go bankrupt.

Therefore, Wang Xiao has a certain degree of certainty that the United States dare not reject Lenovo and Xiaomi's mobile phone products. As for Huawei, in fact, it has enjoyed the treatment of Magic Technology for a long time. The U.S. Congress issued an executive order to prohibit Huawei's products from entering the United States, because Huawei has cooperated with the Chinese military in some communication radar projects.

Huawei's products will not be allowed to enter the United States unless Huawei discloses its internal financial structure and some sensitive technologies to allow the United States to ensure that Huawei's technology will not eavesdrop on the information of American citizens, and even require Huawei to go public in the United States. This is simply difficult for a strong man. Ren Zhengfei has long rejected the request to go public, and firmly said that Huawei will not go public for a long time in the future, because Huawei is not short of money.

This is one of the factors that Wang Xiao admires Ren Zhengfei. He has the style and integrity of a soldier, focuses on researching technology in one field, and does not follow the trend to go public to make money.

However, Apple has been selling very well in China, and has not been sanctioned by the Chinese government. It was not until the Rubik’s Cube mobile phone was launched that Apple almost lost the Chinese market. Apple was so scared that it did not dare to face it directly, and the launch was delayed for more than half a month. .

Therefore, there is a huge gap in the targeted treatment of the two governments. Therefore, commercial competition with American companies has never been fair. It is possible that the victory or defeat is not in the market, but in the political field, and may even be in the military field. .

Wang Xiao originally wanted to never allow his products to enter Europe and the United States, so that their lives could not keep up with the rhythm of China, but now he has changed his mind. He wants to destroy the technology industries in Europe, America and Japan step by step!

Lenovo, Huawei, and Xiaomi are his three hands, extending to the European, American and Japanese markets.

After Ren Zhengfei and Rebus left Wang Xiao's villa, they immediately launched a publicity campaign, publicly announcing that the new mobile phone will be launched globally in a week's time!

At the request of Wang Xiao, Lenovo went public simultaneously with Ren Zhengfei and Rebus.

The purpose is very simple, that is to launch on the same day as Apple, and to snipe Apple's new mobile phone products together.

Lenovo has sent its new mobile phone products to the United States, and the US Congress is once again facing this huge problem.

Let it go, or not?

After Apple got the news, it naturally did not agree to release it. Cook, together with Microsoft and Qualcomm, several high-tech giants in communications, put pressure on Congress, not wanting to let Lenovo's mobile phones enter the US market.

The reason is very simple. After all, Lenovo's mobile phone is a product of Maneng Technology, and Maneng Technology's products were banned by the US Congress.

However, although it is a product of Mana Technology, it appears to be a product of Lenovo. Lenovo has in-depth cooperation with several high-tech companies such as IBM and Texas Instruments in the United States. It still has some influence in the United States. In addition, Lenovo is behind the Chinese government. It is the world's number one computer manufacturer. Huge, this made the entire Congress very afraid, and the White House did not express it.

finally!

Five days after Lenovo sent the mobile phone to the United States, it finally passed the filing and obtained the network access permission.

The U.S. Congress released it, but after all, they did not dare to anger China at this critical moment, and they released Lenovo with a very high efficiency. Otherwise, they could be stuck for a few months and then released, and the outside world would have nothing to say.

After Apple and Qualcomm heard the news, no matter how angry they were, it was useless. They can indeed influence politics, but politics also has its own position, especially when the United States has foreign wars, politics is no longer just for business. , but serve the military and international situation.

At this time, Mi tc saw that Lenovo had passed, and also sent a new mobile phone to the United States, which was the same as Lenovo's mobile phone hardware and software, but the shape was different, and some unique elements were added.

After all, this is also a Rubik’s Cube phone. Looking at the terrible sales of Rubik’s Cube in China and some other small markets, Apple’s Cook felt a burst of fear. He couldn’t imagine the terrible consequences if the Rubik’s Cube entered the US market in an all-round way!

Now, the two giants of mobile communications, Apple and Qualcomm, are panicking!

The U.S. Congress also simply released Mi tc's mobile phone. Anyway, if you put one or two, you can let it go, and the permission was quickly obtained. Now is the time to make good friends with China and gain allies. After the United States has cleaned up India and the Arab League, it will not be too late to clean up China.

After Apple's Cook held an emergency high-level meeting, he finally made a decision, that is to let Apple's new phone go on the market two days earlier than the scheduled time. They can't wait any longer. The consequences could be disastrous.

When Lenovo and Xiaomi's mobile phones completely invade the United States, Apple will be hard to resist.

At the same time, Apple also got the news that the new mobile phones of Huawei and Lenovo have also obtained market entry permits in Europe!

this……

Cook simply doesn't know how to describe his mood at the moment. Chinese mobile phones are going to invade the global market and not give Apple a way out. His expression at the conference table has always been cold and serious.

In the ten days since the Mofang mobile phone was launched, the sales volume has exceeded 150 million, and Apple's stock has been falling accordingly. At this moment, it has fallen to a trough of 380 billion US dollars, falling from 660 billion US dollars to 300 million US dollars. Eighty billion U.S. dollars, which is almost equivalent to cutting in half!

If it is an ordinary company, if the business is not good at a critical moment, the market value may be cut in half.

But this is an apple...

One of the symbols of high-tech companies on the earth, the first high-tech company to reach the world's largest market value is almost a monument, a myth.

Now that it has fallen to such a point, many people can't believe it. This seems to be a replica of Nokia back then. Fortunately, Apple's stock has stabilized. When Cook announced the listing of Apple's mobile phone, the stock price rose a little, and the market value once again entered the ranks of 400 billion US dollars.

And next, it depends on the sales of Apple's new products. If the sales of Apple's new mobile phones drop sharply, then the stock price may fall sharply again.

This is the critical moment of Apple's life and death!

However, at this moment.

After the new mobile phone of Mi tc and Lenovo passed the test in the United States, they announced that the mobile phone will be launched simultaneously in the world, including the markets of the United States, Europe, Japan and other countries.

Huawei also announced that the new mobile phone will be launched simultaneously in other countries except the US market!

The news announced by the three major companies once again shocked the whole world.

Apple's stock price fell in response, falling below the $400 billion mark again!

The New York Times: "This is a ruthless conspiracy. This is a conspiracy by Maneng Technology against American high-tech companies. The U.S. Congress should stop this conspiracy from happening and prevent Maneng Technology's products from entering the US market in any form. The new products of Lenovo and Mi tc are essentially products of Maneng Technology. Once their products enter the US market, it will have a huge impact on the entire US mobile phone market. Apple is in danger of going bankrupt, and Apple is a high-tech company in the US The symbol of the domain is not allowed to close down!"

The Washington Post, a political newspaper, said in an analysis: "This is a temporary compromise from the US government to the Chinese government. Now that the US has internal and external troubles, it can no longer completely fall out with the Chinese government. If all mobile phone companies in China are blocked one after another, then this is Obviously deliberate targeting, China will definitely respond strongly. In this case, there will be a risk of a rupture in trade between the two countries. Therefore, a temporary political compromise is necessary.”

The Los Angeles Times also objected: "The superior performance of the Rubik's Cube mobile phone is a sci-fi level performance. After evaluation by authoritative organizations, it will take at least 30 years for Apple to manufacture such a sci-fi technological mobile phone. Now let Apple and an opponent of this level The consequences of competing in the domestic market are unimaginable, Congress should block all Chinese mobile phone companies, prohibit Chinese mobile phone products from entering the United States, and protect our own high-tech enterprises to develop opportunities!"

Many media in the United States were encouraged by major high-tech companies to oppose the listing of Lenovo and Xiaomi mobile phones in the United States, because they themselves do not think that Apple's mobile phones can resist the Rubik's Cube, which will have a huge impact on the US communication industry. , It is not an exaggeration to say that it was a devastating blow.

This kind of regional protection is what the United States has been doing for a long time. Shamelessness is the most important magic weapon for the success of American commercial companies. When the competition cannot beat them, those capitalists will ask the government to come forward. Anyway, the United States is the boss, so they will block you with government orders. What's the matter?

This is a common trick of major American companies, but this time the U.S. government did not dare to use it, because it is an extraordinary period, which makes those large American companies feel an unprecedented sense of crisis, as if the amulets that have been protecting themselves are no longer working. Let them have a feeling of competing with their opponents with real knives and guns, and they have no sense of security at all.

However, unlike major media and major companies, many users in the United States have unanimously welcomed Lenovo and Xiaomi mobile phones to enter the United States!

Motivational discussions are taking place on several major social networking sites in the United States.

"I am fed up with the performance of Apple's mobile phones over the years. There is no bright spot, and it is extremely dull. It just changes back and forth between getting bigger and smaller. If the mobile phones of Lenovo and Xiaomi are really the same as the Rubik's Cube, I will definitely buy one!"

"Yes, I am also fed up with Apple's lack of progress. Cook is too comfortable and feels that he has no rivals. I think it's time to let Cook know the cruelty of competition. The performance of Rubik's cube mobile phone is sci-fi level. I will definitely buy it, can't imagine how cool it is to use a phone like this!"

"God, I just asked a Chinese friend to help me buy a Rubik's Cube first-generation mobile phone, but it can't be used normally, and I can only hold it in my hand to pretend to be aggressive. I didn't expect Lenovo and Xiaomi's Rubik's Cube to come in? I should wait. Wait, but I'll keep buying."

"We want to use the Rubik's Cube mobile phone. It's as simple as that. Let the Chinese mobile phone come to the United States. I want to buy it."

"Oh, Rubik's cube phone is so cool, I must buy it!"

…………

Seeing the support of the public, the gentlemen in Congress were relieved, and felt that they had done the right thing, eased the relationship with China, and gained the support of the public, and the pressure from Apple was temporarily withstood. Well, let's talk about it after a year or two.

However, they don't know if Apple can last two years.

this day.

Apple's new mobile phone is on the market.

However, whether it is the Amazon online shopping mall or the Apple stores in major cities in the United States, the shipments are appallingly low. In the United States, only more than 300,000 mobile phones were sold in one day.

There are not many people at the entrance of the Apple store. Compared with the long queue every time the Apple mobile phone was launched in the past, it is simply empty.

This is Apple's home...

This is the case at home, let alone other places.

When Cook got the detailed data of the global listing, he felt dizzy for a while.

150,000 in the United States, 7,000 in China, 80,000 in Europe, and 50,000 to 60,000 in other regions...

Is this the report card of Apple's new product launch?

Who can believe it?

Apple's new mobile phone sold less than 300,000 units on the first day of its global launch, and there are not tens of thousands in China? ?

The entire Apple sales department couldn't believe this statistic.

It is estimated that many people will be curious, are there still fools in China who continue to buy Apple phones? How true love is it to buy Apple at the same price as Rubik's Cube, or it can be said to be really stupid.

Cook thought that Lenovo, Xiaomi, and Huawei, the three major Chinese mobile phone companies that joined Maneng Technology, would be listed globally tomorrow, and he fainted at that time.

He can't imagine tomorrow's data.

It's been Apple's darkest stretch of the decade. (to be continued ~^~)
