Andy looked at the frowning thin cheeks of Steve Jobs opposite, and his mood was not as calm and indifferent as his face showed, but it was very bad, and he was going to fight Apple after all.

For Steve Jobs, who firmly believed that "only paranoia can survive", "the pursuit of perfection" was also an indispensable element while insisting on innovation. The App Store may not have had this idea before, but now it is the most important part of Jobs' quest for perfection.

He is a stubborn, biased, authoritarian and irascible person, the things he sees will not change, the board of directors simply cannot suppress him, he knows better than anyone that there is not much time left for him.

"Our time is limited, so I don't waste time living a life I don't want. I will not be deceived by dogma - it tempts me to live according to other people's mindsets. Most importantly, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They will know what kind of person you really want to be. Everything else is secondary. ”

Andy heard Jobs' somewhat low voice, and sighed secretly, but the expression on his face was still calm, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, with a smile, and his eyes were half-squinted at him, "When I decided to think of this idea and create a new business model that integrates the Internet and mobile phones, I knew that if I pushed open a door, someone would naturally follow behind, but there will be motivation only if there is competition, isn't it?"

"$200 million, Apple is willing to package and acquire... ”

Andy chuckled, and didn't care if Jobs would feel embarrassed, "Just as I believe that crazy mobile phones will take the world by storm, the future of the app app store is very bright, I, the pioneer and pioneer, am not afraid of the chasers behind me, this market is very big, so big that I can't eat it alone, I have never wanted to stop it, and I can't stop others from entering this market." ”

Andy did not answer Jobs' acquisition proposal at all, and even Jobs himself knew that this price seemed very high for a company that had just been established for a short time, but the two people here were so-called geniuses, how could they get out of the stupid trick.

"We may default and turn off the access port of the mobile app. ”

"Apple controls the hardware, software, platform, and user port, and no one will be your opponent, but after all, the United States has sound laws, unfair competition, and monopoly, all of which are rules that cannot be bypassed, and the gains outweigh the losses, and it is more appropriate for everyone to cooperate for a win-win situation, what do you think?"

The expression on Jobs' face was a little cold, the two looked at each other without retreating, for the young man in front of him who was no different from himself in momentum, he was very speechless, Nima, he was already a threat to Hongguoguo, listen to him, if he breached the contract, he would stab the knife and sue Apple for monopoly.

"Apple will not engage in monopoly, Apple is open and innovative, we will send someone to start the contract modification negotiation with Mockingjay Games Company and the Free City APP App Store, and revise the uniqueness of some terms, such as the only choice of the store where the download page of the game such as Fruit Swordsman jumps... ”

Although Jobs was expressionless and said in a cold voice, the feeling in his heart that the sun was enough could not be erased, FXXK, what the hell are these terms.

Andy looked at Jobs, who threw down an ultimatum and casually found a reason to get up and leave, couldn't help pursing his lips, squinting his eyes slightly, and sneering, "It's really rude!"

But fortunately, it seems that Jobs doesn't want to flip the table directly, after all, the amount of liquidated damages is definitely painful, and it is understandable to want to loosen the ties, Andy's contract with Apple has many clauses that it didn't seem to care about at all, but now it has become a rogue clause that makes Apple grit his teeth with hatred.

For example, the jump selection to download the game;To download the game, the software first needs to download the bundle of the APP of the Freedom City App Store, which is also a more common rogue bundling mode in the market, and almost no one's mobile phone can escape the automatic download of this app store.

Andy's biggest advantage is the ability to see the future, and as the smartphone market continues to mature, consumers spend more and more time on their phones. The global smartphone manufacturer's service revenue has increased significantly, of which the revenue of global applications has achieved double-digit growth, and the number of third-party platform downloads will soar, which is a large market of 100 billion US dollars, he will not let go, and he will not prevent others from entering the market, the only thing to do is to rely on the advantages of the pioneers to seize market share and play brand influence.

In the previous life, the two camps divided by the App Store and Google Play dominated the market, and now his free city has been adsorbed on Apple, greedily absorbing the nutrients that make them stronger, Google's Android system, and their three Internet companies have joined the Open Mobile Phone Alliance initiated by Google, as the first company to send a team to join the research and development of the improved Android system, do not worry about the emergence of new programs, and the market gap period that appears, can be used to seize the market for the first time.

At the reception, Cook looked at Andy Smith, who was chatting happily with Li Mengxian, the mayor of the San Francisco City Government in the distance, with a little gloomy eyes, he had just seen that Boss Joe's face was not very good-looking.

"It didn't work out, he just dug the trap from the beginning and calculated us, who would have thought that his strategic layout would be so forward-looking, this young man is very difficult!"

Jobs walked up to Cook, half-squinted his eyes, and said with a little depressed gloom, in fact, they also understood that if Andy Smith's app store hadn't appeared, they Apple really hadn't considered this business model before, and to be honest, they should really thank him on the other hand.

"Otherwise, I'll kick him out!" Cook also felt very aggrieved, he was also a member of the negotiation team when he signed the contract, and he was very happy to be able to make a little profit from the download of the game, and now it seems that Nima, that is the poisonous bait sown by this young man.

"Hehe, do you think he hasn't thought about this? Do you believe it, as soon as we breach the contract, he will file a lawsuit to claim compensation, and after the money is obtained, he will use this part of the money to pay the lawyer's fees to sue us for unfair competition and monopoly, and even if he can't win, he will drag us to death with a lawsuit, which is what he said just now. ”

Jobs didn't know whether to sneer or laugh at himself, but the helplessness in his tone was still very obvious, this young man was not only difficult, but also had a kind of demeanor that you play tricks and Lao Tzu is more shameless than you.

"This bastard!" a black line appeared on Cook's forehead, and a curse came out between his teeth.

"Can't underestimate him, look at his age, 23 years old, in a short period of time to earn tens of billions of net worth, even I have to admire his ability, he may not change the world, but the ideas and ideas he came up with in his brain can earn wealth, negotiate, it is best to solve it at the negotiation table, children from political families value interests and know how to compromise. ”

Cook looked at Boss Joe's emaciated cheeks and bright eyes, couldn't help but sigh lightly, and drank the champagne in his hand in one gulp, he knew that the negotiation was undoubtedly a compromise chosen by their Apple company, after all, it didn't seem worth paying hundreds of millions of dollars in compensation for a user service software platform that didn't know the future prospects, and the most important thing would be to provoke a billionaire who was willing to put down his body and play a scoundrel.

Who knows whether Apple will be afraid of the anti-monopoly stick? But what if he really makes a whole moth out of it? It will be really dumbfounded.

At 8:30 p.m., Andy looked at the time, restrained his smile, put the wine glass in his hand on a waiter's tray passing by him, hugged the slender waist of the little assistant who had been a vase all night, found the host Jobs, and left the reception with apologies.

Sending the little assistant back to the hotel, in the underground parking lot, Andy said to Tori: "You take the two of them for another night, and take the plane back to Los Angeles tomorrow afternoon, and I'll go first tonight." ”

Tori Blake blinked his big eyes, as if he had thought of something, although he didn't know who the big devil's QING woman was in Los Angeles, but it was certain that there was definitely more than one, and according to the preferences of the big devil, the other party was definitely a celebrity, and the few who had passed the scandal had a significant chance, and it seemed that they were going to get rid of her again, and they were going to meet qingren secretly, and sighed helplessly, when the elevator was closed, I saw the red taillights of the car go away.
