Chapter 51: Leadership Thinking
"You mean..." Gao Yue looked at each other hesitantly.
Ren Hong smiled lightly, and then said: "Apple Apple will not sit still, and the capital consortium behind him will not allow others to touch his cake. The so-called fair competition method is only one of them. The so-called best strategy. But interests will drive people to do whatever they can, and it won't surface, it doesn't mean it doesn't exist, in fact, it will always exist."
"Let me think, what if I were part of Apple, what would I do with XlouS? Technically, I can't do it at all, and if you can't win by legitimate means, then use the dark ones! They'll run out Any feasible means, poaching our corporate technology executives for a huge amount, commercial espionage stealing technology, even kidnapping key technical engineers, bribing our internal personnel, etc., and the dark means are far more than these, such as through other methods to curb our development, and even the use of state means, etc. In short, the opponent will create a series of levels for us, and what we have to do is to face a series of problems that may arise, which is why, I want to build at the headquarters The reason I'm not going to launch a new product until it's done, because I can't protect the technology from being stolen anywhere else."
"No wonder you still insist on not recruiting foreigners, so you have already thought of this." Gao Yue thought thoughtfully, "Although there have been improvements in preventing technical leaks, it has also cost the company a lot. talent.”
"Haha~~~" Ren Hong heard the words with a nonchalant smile, "The technology is all here, I don't need them, never need it." He pointed to his head, his eyes exuding strong confidence, and added Dao: "With a population of 1.5 billion in China, there is no shortage of truly outstanding engineers. Even if there is a shortage, let me train a group myself."
Ren Hong's eyes exuded deep thought, "This is why I divide soup for others to drink, I moved Apple's cake, and I gave other people's cake. As the saying goes, good, blocks people's way of money. If you want human life, if you want human life to be destined, you should fight for it. This sentence is valid for any person or company!" He smiled again and said: "But in the end, we still want our products to be excellent enough, our The technology is excellent enough, this is the precondition for everything.”
"You still have such an extremely dark side in your inner world!" Gao Yue said leisurely.
Ren Hong said undeniably: "On the left is light, and on the right is darkness. In the extremely bright world on the left, even the slightest moment of darkness is so obvious; in the extremely dark world on the right, even if It's a weak moment and the flash is so dazzling. It's like a singularity in the yin and yang. This is my thinking"
"Is this your Scorpio's thinking? So extreme..." Gao Yue said softly.
"Perhaps." Ren Hong shrugged and said: "But as the helm of a giant company, he needs this kind of thinking. Standing in an extreme situation, he can see hope in the dark and see hope in the light. Explore its potential threats and avoid disadvantages.”
"Then you say, how should Apple respond? How should we respond?" Gao Yue asked curiously.
Ren Hong said: "If I knew it, wouldn't it be a god! In short, it's fine to see tricks and tricks. We just need to learn the same way of foreigners, firmly grasp the core technology and not be leaked and be ready to take tricks at any time. That's it. But I think there's one other thing that needs to be fixed right away."
"What's the matter?" Gao Yue was taken aback and said.
Suddenly, Ren Hong decisively hugged the princess, and left the window sill with a low exclamation, "There is always something to do when you are full of energy in the morning, and I forgot to tell you that scorpions have another characteristic, that is there. It's hard to be satisfied, especially in the face of the lovely little fish."
"I have to go to work later!"
"I allow you to be late!"
"Do it tonight, honey!"
"Of course I'll do it tonight!"
"Okay, . . I welcome you infinitely!"
......
Clap!
A document is tossed on a glass conference table with a thud.
At this moment, in the high-level meeting room of Apple's spaceship headquarters, Apple's executives gathered, and Tim Cook pointed to the document and said, "Three days! Three days! Just three days!" S-1' sold 7 million units in three days! XlouS has received pre-orders for 20 million units worldwide, and online transactions pay first and then arrive! XlouS earns more than $10 billion a day on average." Cook looked around Everyone, "This should belong to Apple! But the reality is that the company has evaporated $150 billion, the company's market value has fallen below the $500 billion mark, we are overtaken by Alphabet, and Facebook is about to overtake us!"
"Why?" Cook looked around, finally focusing on the company's CTO.
These days, Tim Cook is literally eating, sleeping, tossing, and sleeping! The pressure from the board of directors, the pressure of public opinion from the outside world, etc., are really overwhelming. Apple’s market value has evaporated by more than 150 billion US dollars. This astronomical figure shocked the world. Now the situation is that the internal board of directors and external shareholders are asking Apple to take measures as soon as possible.
"According to the original plan, even the iPhone 8S would not be able to sell 2 million units." Cook looked directly at the CTO and said quietly.
"The technology of 'S-1' is at least five to ten years ahead of its time, laser hedging imaging technology, focusing unreal screen display technology, etc. I don't understand how the engineer team of Sherus Ren did it.... .." the CTO said.
"What I want is a response! A response! It's not a **** compliment to 'S-1', understand?" Cook couldn't help interrupting the other party's words, and the scene suddenly fell silent. After a while, Cook Shen Sheng said, "How is the cracking progress of 'S-1'?"
Everyone looked at the CTO, who was embarrassed and helpless and said, "No progress!"
"F***!" Cook lowered his head, silent, but his mouth began with an "F".
The chief technology officer said: "The other party has carried out an extremely demanding design in terms of technical confidentiality. As long as our engineers forcibly disassemble it, the internal components will rapidly corrode until they are completely disintegrated into waste materials, and even a small amount of chemical changes will appear. Other substances. I don't understand how they repair it? Are they so confident in the quality of the equipment?"
XlouS has a solution, but no one knows about it.
"Chemical reaction?" Someone asked in surprise: "Aren't they afraid of hurting consumers?"
"Unfortunately! No way!" said the CTO helplessly. "'S-1' has achieved the ultimate in preventing technical leaks. The company's engineers are helpless just in the first layer of protection, not to mention that there may be more advanced protection measures later.
"Everyone! The idea of cracking this device is so unrealistic that we can't even open the lid! No one can crack 'instant online translation' or 'voice assistant', XlouS is a genius technology The protection method is basically incomprehensible, and we have to think of other ways.” One executive said: “We can only survive this crisis by acquiring the core technology of 'S-1' and making our own wearable Smart devices. Obviously, we have to find another way." After a pause, he continued: "Since the core technology is in the hands of the other party, then obtaining the technology from the other party is the only way forward. Anything like poaching, bribing, espionage, etc. is feasible. means..."
"Do you have to use these methods?" Cook mused.
"The winner is never clean, Mr. Cook. I don't think the board will object," the company executive emphasized.
