King of Hollywood Chapter 332: I refuse


"Open source? Why?" Jobs' eyes narrowed, alert, seemingly very upset. It looked quite like guarding against the kid who wanted to take his toy.

"For the future." Adrian in the eyes immediately said with avid affirmation, "There is no doubt that in the future is the world of smartphones, whoever can seize the opportunity will win the market! I may have Not sure, but after seeing your stuff today, I believe that although BlackBerry has opened this era, ne will surely lead this era!" ",

Jobs nodded indifferently, maybe he didn't even realize it. Obviously, these words obviously made him very useful.

"So what kind of opportunity should we seize?" Adrian finally threw out his real topic, "Standard! The standard of the smartphone system!"

He reached out and drew a big circle between the two: "Smartphones are a trend, and its market must be a piece of fat. If you want more and better possession before others react, then formulate The standard of an operating system is very necessary. The experience of ne is very good, but the system is too closed, and the qualifications of BlackBerry in the industry are too shallow, so when the market reacts, there will inevitably be more open systems launched. Ever used Android? Last year, gle acquired them. Wouldn’t you think it’s fun for gle’s board to approve this acquisition?” “Look

Seeing Steve Jobs showing a thinking look, Adrian's tone is also eager: "Think about the situation, Steve, Apple first launched a personal computer and achieved great success. It is still a high-end today. The product is still the first choice for people to buy a personal computer, but when it comes to the operating system, the first thing that comes to mind is Microsoft. The closed oS system is indeed very stable, but it also gives the low-end market to Microsoft. Do you want to let Is this scene reenacted on smartphones?"

Speaking of this, he suddenly changed the subject: "I have been reminding you before, don't rely on Samsung completely, but you hardly listen. Now, with this..."

Adrian shook the prototype of ne in his hand: "I want to ask you, Steve, do you know that Samsung also makes mobile phones? If they are through the process of being an Apple supplier, they thoroughly understand the structure of ne and then launch It belongs to its own smartphone and uses an open source operating system. At the same time, it threatens Apple to either pay more or switch to other suppliers. How do you choose?"

"I admit that you said so much, and this last point is the most threatening," Jobs finally said after raising his eyebrow. "But otherwise, it's not a big deal. Or you want to tell Me, you have no confidence in Apple’s future, are you, Ed?"

"Yes." Adrian looked at him. An affirmative answer was given, "You are right, Jobs, I have no confidence in Apple's future."

There was a stunned look in Jobs' eyes. But still not talking, Adrian has said aloud: "I think you should figure out one thing, Steve. I have never invested in Apple, I have always invested in Steve Jobs, yes Steve Jobs, the workaholic, arrogant, narcissistic, but also a genius!"

He stood up violently, waving his arms and looking very excited: "Although I have said so much and mentioned so many bad prospects, I fully believe that as long as there is Steve Jobs asshole, as long as there is With this genius, madman, and madman, Apple will never have to worry about anything! Apple will always make big strides forward! No matter how many people they want to use to catch up, it will not care, it will only throw them away, Leave your back to others, and the apple with Steve Jobs is the real apple, the real giant in the industry!"

What is the highest state touted? That is, you obviously use many bad words on the other party, but the other party still feels very useful.

"As long as you are still in Apple, as long as you are still in charge of Apple, I will not say this at all, but" the recovered Adrian stares at Jobs closely, "If one day you are gone?"

"Oh?" Jobs pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, but said nothing.

"We all know your situation, don't we?" Adrian directly pointed out, "Although it's a bit of an offense to say so, I have to consider all the situations, don't I? So, let's assume, Steve, we'll do it again , You announced that you need to leave Apple temporarily due to physical reasons and expect to return after 3 to 6 months. Guess how much Apple will fall in response? I bet at least 10%."

He opened his hands and raised his hands, but Jobs still sat steadily and said nothing.

"What happens if you are gone, such as retired Apple?" Adrian didn't care, and continued to say, "I'll tell you, Steve, first of all, the stock will definitely fall to a certain extent, which can't be avoided ; Then, Apple will maintain the current momentum, because inertia is huge; Then, people will start to question, opponents will start to target, Apple will do everything possible to maintain their position, stifle competitors, such as what to chamfer 'S application is a patent; in the end, if Apple can survive and find a successor who is only half of your ability, you will get a freshman, otherwise, the giant will collapse."

Adrian spread his hands. Although he left a tail behind, he believed that Jobs would not understand what he meant. After he left, almost everyone knows what happened to Apple, and this is also the most convincing point of Adrian.

"All you have to do is open source, even if it is only a part, a small part, as long as you can integrate this market, if someone wants to share it, you have to ask our opinion first, and Apple has a brighter future," Adrian Looking at Jobs seriously, "Don't tell me anything about Apple's traditions, don't you also make a lot of changes?"

"I admit that your worry makes sense, and your portrayal is also very attractive, Ed," After thinking for a long time, Jobs with his arms finally opened his mouth, and he could see that he was a little tempted, but he agreed but not Adrian wanted.

"But, I refuse." He raised his head and said in an unquestionable tone.

"...Why?" The confident Adrian suddenly froze. Some looked at Jobs in disbelief.

"You said, as long as I'm still at Apple, don't worry, right?" Jobs, with his hands crossed in front of him, looked at him calmly, "As for the assumption that I'm gone, if there is one day, believe I will leave Apple with a rich legacy. If they can’t stand up to this situation and can’t support Apple, then it’s going to fail.”

The eyes behind the glasses shone brightly. At this moment, he and the one in an animation, who would only sit behind the desk and make the commander of the glasses flash quite similar.

"He really said this to you?" Claude couldn't help laughing.

"He really said this to me." Adrian nodded in frustration and depression. "This is really...a major setback."

He considered the way of speaking, the plot depicted, how to provoke Jobs’ emotions, all the details, but he didn’t expect that this guy would be proud or insist on his beliefs to this Kind of degree. If you can't survive it, then go bankrupt? It's really domineering. Why don't you just say that building from me and destroying from me? !

He really wanted to ask this question, but he finally refrained from lobbying. Adrian's dealings with Steve Jobs are not rare. It is clear that some things will not change once the other party decides.

It's too bad, it's really bad. Adrian couldn't help but sigh again. For more than ten years, he has been accustomed to getting results in every lobbying. It is not that he is proud. Every time he wants to lobby anyone, he will make careful preparations, not to mention that this time Jobs is not easy to speak. I thought about it repeatedly, but I didn't expect it to hit the wall hard, or the kind with no room for maneuver. What the hell, that guy, Jobs, clearly had a heart.

Know that the standard for operating systems for smart phones has been set by him a long time ago. One of the things he wants to do most is frustrated.

"Unified smartphone operating system is really so important?" Claude asked at this moment. "I understand a little. As the biggest and most profitable mobile phone manufacturer at present, Nokia does not seem to be very optimistic about smart phones. "

"So they are destined to go downhill." Adrian waved his hand. "You have also seen ne, Crow, tell me how it feels."

"Well...as an ordinary person, this kind of mobile phone that integrates many functions but is not very complicated is very easy to use." Claude replied after thinking about it.

"Yes, this is just like the website, the user experience is very important, and ne is doing very well," Adrian nodded. "For modern people, the more features, the better, the simpler, the better. If you can solve all problems with one button, it is best not to design two buttons. With ne's system closed, although it is not friendly to unsupported software, it is also easier to use from another perspective, as long as it is on the platform Continuously providing third-party software, they can easily download without having to consider compatibility issues."

"In this case, it is understandable that Jobs refused to open source." Claude shrugged.

"Yes, I understand, but I don’t accept it. We must be able to use this to set standards that affect the entire industry!" Adrian waved his fists. "Can you imagine which way we said the movie would be filmed? , Do people have to shoot scenes in which way?"

"Of course, aren't you like this now?" Claude laughed, then raised his hands in the eyes of Adrian, "Well, I understand your mood, Ed, this is indeed an opportunity, If the smartphone really develops as you said. But it’s no big deal to be rejected, we are all familiar with Steve Jobs style, let’s say gle or Samsung, we all have stocks, and we will not lose money after all.”

Hearing this, Adrian could not help raising an eyebrow, okay, it seems that he did ignore some things. With Steve Jobs’s control that is no less than his own, would he agree to such a request that he cannot dominate? And, even Claude, the judgments made against him will have to be verified repeatedly before it is paid, let alone Steve Jobs! But what he said will only be confirmed after a few years, and now it can only be regarded as a guess, and it is still a slight guess.

Although Jobs rejected it out of his beliefs and arrogance, it would be impossible for these to have no effect.

"Okay, change the subject," Adrian waved his hand. "Say something that makes me happy."

No matter what, Jobs has made it clear that no matter how unwilling, he can only give up, there is no need to worry about it. Claude is right, no matter what, the media will not suffer.

"What do you want to hear? Oh, yes, Airbus a380 will complete the round-the-world voyage by the end of the year, and it will be officially launched next year. You are not always concerned about this model. Do you want to change to a larger private aircraft? Orders can be placed in the first half or half of the year," Claude said.

"The assembly was completed in 2004, but it took more than two years to complete all the tests. This efficiency is too... Let’s talk about it, Boeing is not developing the 7478." Adrian shrugged.

"Oh, there is one more thing..." Claude said halfway but stopped again. "Forget it, I haven't even sorted out the clues yet. Let's talk about it when there are preliminary results."

"No problem, just let me know." Adrian did not ask. Immediately stood up, "Anyway, I am going to find someone to comfort my broken heart, and I will leave it to you here."

Claude rolled his eyes immediately.

Although I abandon the idea of ​​integrating a smartphone operating system, I feel somewhat depressed. Naturally, I need to find some fun, and find some exciting fun, just now there is one.

"Yes, I know. I... I will pay attention... It’s okay, you have to...be careful..." Irene Nordgreen, who was lying on the couch half-sided, grasped the phone and tried to control it Your own tone in order to make yourself tremble with the impact of the body from behind. And the deep pleasure in the heart and the twisted voice is not so obvious.

Her clothes were crumpled, her bra was pulled down, a pair of softness was exposed, one leg was placed on the shoulder of the man behind him, and the underpants were hung on the lower leg of this leg.

"It's good at home... don't worry... um..." She finally couldn't help but held her phone and took a few breaths of air, as if this could make the fire in her body lighter.

Of course, this is only temporary. When the flame burns again, it can’t be contained, but Irene likes it very much. She turned her head, released her phone and lifted it to her ear, and then licked the corner of her mouth with her tongue, glaring at the man behind her.

"Yes, I understand, I will... Um... that... I will... Ah!" Aline suddenly screamed, and her eyes became abnormally loose at that moment, almost In desperation, she finally controlled herself.

"It's okay, Josephine is here. The sudden appearance scared me." Irene said, taking the opportunity to gasp twice, "Do you want to talk to her?"

Then she handed the phone to Josephine who was kneeling in front of the sofa. Compared to Irene, Josephine who lifted her head had no cover at all on her upper body, blushing her face, and a trace of her mouth. Water stains, and took it after breathing smoothly: "Hey, Tiger, what's the matter?"

She said so that her hand that reached in from the bottom of her skirt hadn't stopped for a moment, and her eyes even looked at the two people who stepped up in front of them, blinking without blinking.

"Okay, I know, so, I still have things." Two or three sentences sent Tiger Woods over there. After hanging up, Josephine posted it immediately.

Aileen also got up at this time, and the twins of the Nordgren family immediately entangled with the man, making the sisters do the same, only Adrian.

He has no psychological burden at all, because this is Irene's initiative to invite, although it is through Josephine, although not expressly stated, but after Adrian came to her house, the teasing was solid. Even, the irritating thing of talking on the phone with Woods before, she did it on her own initiative.

"You seem to hate him, Irene?" After picking her up from the back, Adrian deliberately asked in her ear this way.

"Of course I hate him," Irene gasped without any worries, "Sweet words before marriage, after marriage... Only five months later, he started outside... fooling around with other women, and more than one I can be sure, just now... he was in a woman’s room, and he stayed in Las Vegas overnight for the woman!"

She turned her head to smile and hooked her Adrian's neck with her arms: "Since that's the case~IndoMTL.com~ I can also find other men. Josephine is very respectful of you, Ed."

This is the consequence of not having the corresponding power and countermeasures, but squandering everywhere, and because of this, Adrian never refused to give his woman a promise of marriage. However, although the twin Shuangfei Nordgreen twins are very cool, the quality of the two sisters is quite good, but it is enough to play occasionally. After all, these two sisters are not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Not to mention anything else, but look at how Irene Nordgren was messing with Woods outside to pretend to be deaf and dumb, you know what her personality is like, not to mention that there is a lot about her in Adrian How to get to know Woods from Sweden. Similarly, Josephine Nordgrin was assigned to an internship in a partner law firm after taking him. Soon after, he became an official assistant based on the name recommended by Adrian and participated in several cases to improve himself. The fame in the circle, and it was done just right, neither disgusted the firm, but spread it to Adrian's ears, which just made him shrug.

So be careful. Only carefulness will not overturn the boat in the gutter. Of course, if they can have more handles, Adrian wouldn’t mind trying more. After all, it’s good for the twins. (To be continued...)
