"Mr. President!" Sitting in Tristov's car, the unlucky guy looked at each other with some concern.

"Tell me, which department are you and what is your name!" It was still morning, but Christophe rubbed his eyes a little tiredly, and then asked.

"My name is Tim Cook, and I'm the deputy manager of the purchasing department, responsible for parts procurement and inventory management!" Tim Cook replied. [PS: Tim Cook in history, at this time at Compaq Computer as a purchasing job. 】

"Say, as a member of our Motorola, why do you spend money to buy Daqian's mobile phone!" Christophe couldn't even feel angry.

Originally, he saw that the sales of Daqian 2 were hot, and his heart was already angry and about to explode, but it turned out to be good, there was a person who came to grab the global version of the mobile phone with him, not to mention, this person is actually an employee of his own company!

An employee of Motorola is willing to add $100 to buy a mobile phone, and you say that Kristoff is about to explode in anger.

Now Kristof has actually been out of the explosion by anger, and the whole person has already flown into the sky.

"Mr. President, in fact, I use our Motorola mobile phone, the reason why I bought this Daqian mobile phone is just the need of my work, not that I like Daqian mobile phones!" Tim Cook hurriedly defended himself, and at the same time took out another mobile phone from his pocket to prove that he was a red heart to Motorola.

"Work, that's a big joke!" Christophe couldn't help but laugh, "You give us Motorola a job, why do you need a big mobile phone?" Are you also a member of the R&D department and want to buy a mobile phone and disassemble it? ”

"Mr. President, I am indeed not from the R&D department, but our purchasing department also needs a suitable mobile phone. I'm in charge of the procurement of various parts for Motorola, and I will be flying to China this morning. ”

"But all of Huaxia's communication base stations are in CDMA format! We Motorola don't have a CDMA format mobile phone, in order to be able to make calls normally in Huaxia, so I have to buy a CDMA format mobile phone, which is really my work needs! Tim Cook argued.

"!" Christophe was furious, "Even if you really need a phone in CMDA format, can't you buy another brand of phone?" Even if you buy a Nokia mobile phone, you can buy Daqian's mobile phone in the past, do you know how painful Daqian tossed us last year? You still buy a thousand mobile phones! ”

"Sir, I bought Daqian mobile phone, but also to save money for the company, among all CDMA format mobile phones, it is the cheapest mobile phone, in order not to waste the company's funds, of course I have to choose to buy the cheapest mobile phone!"

"You actually used public expense to buy Daqian's mobile phone!!" Unexpectedly, as soon as Tim Cook said this, Christophe exploded even more.

Good guy, this guy doesn't want to buy a big mobile phone, but he still uses public funds to buy a big mobile phone, is there anything more disgusting in the world?

"Sir, I just joined the company three months ago, so I don't know much about that matter, but I only know that working for the company should save every penny for the company, so I decided to buy the cheapest Daqian mobile phone, I think about it for the benefit of the company!!" The more Tim Cook spoke, the more excited he became, and the momentum of the whole person became full.

Originally, he Tim Cook had a clear conscience, and now he has to be interrogated by the president like this, of course he has to be imposing.

"You...... You ......" Kristoff was angry and anxious, but it sounded like the other party was really thinking about the company, Kristof paused for a long time before thinking of something, and immediately said angrily, "If you just want to buy a mobile phone in CDMA format, then why don't you buy an ordinary, only $1200 Daqian 2, but instead buy a $1000 global version!" ”

"Report to the president, because Mi Daqian's mobile phones are all GSM versions, there is no CDMA format for sale at all!"

"Then you will buy it when you get to Huaxia!"

"Because I can't be reimbursed for buying in Huaxia" this time Tim Cook's momentum was a little lower.

It's not that he didn't think that he could go to Huaxia to buy a cheaper GSM version of Daqian 2, but Motorola's rules and regulations are relatively rigid, and only if he buys a mobile phone in the United States, he can be reimbursed.

Although Tim Cook is very loyal to the company, he is not loyal to the point of using his own money to spend on the company, so it is naturally the best choice to buy a global version of the mobile phone in the United States.

"I never knew the company had such a rule!" Christophe said angrily.

"President, although it is true that there is no explicit rule, this is the unspoken rule of finance!" Tim Cook explained.

"Enough!" Christophe scolded, "Let me ask you again, what are you doing on a business trip to Huaxia as a person from the purchasing department, do we still have to go to Huaxia to purchase parts?" ”

"That's right, Mr. President, I have a few friends who work at Nokia, and they secretly told me that many of Nokia's parts are now produced in China, and the price is relatively low, which can save great costs!"

"So I plan to go to Huaxia to investigate and look for those parts with low prices, so as to reduce the production cost for our products!" Tim Cook said: "I applied to the higher authorities for this matter, and it was approved!" ”

"Hehe, Tim, have you ever heard such a saying? It's called cheap and no good! ”

"How can a poor, backward country like China with an inferior system produce parts for mobile phones?"

"Even if we can really produce a few less important parts, and the price is really low as you said, I think it is a low-quality product, and such a product on our Motorola mobile phone has no benefit except to reduce the quality of our products and destroy our reputation!"

"Our Motorola mobile phone is the best mobile phone in the world, and the United States is the most advanced country in the world. You don't look for higher quality products in the United States, but go to Huaxia to buy some inferior products, what do you have to worry about? Christophe said angrily.

"No, sir, it's not like this, I have done a survey, Huaxia can produce qualified parts, otherwise Daqian's 1st generation mobile phone, will not be sold smoothly for a year, there is no major quality problem, their parts are basically written "Made in China.", indicating that Huaxia can also produce excellent quality, at the same time cheap parts, I really think about the company! ”

"Enough! You get me off! Completely impatient, Christophe told the driver to stop and pushed Tim Cook down.

"Mr. President, do I still want to go to Huaxia?" Looking at Christophe, who was sitting in the car, Tim Cook asked again.

"You can go, but don't come back if you go!" After Christopher finished coldly, the car drove away, leaving a man on the side of the road, accompanied by the summer wind, messy Tim Cook.

"This Huaxia, I still have to go!" Tim Cook gritted his teeth and said that in the afternoon, Motorola received Tim Cook's resignation letter, because Tim Cook had only been in the company for three months, so there was not much trouble in resigning, and the two sides quickly terminated the labor contract.

And Tim Cook took his own money, took a plane, and went to distant China.

Six months later, Steve Jobs, who was planning to restructure Apple's purchasing department, remembered that he had a friend named Tim Cook, who was a good hand at purchasing, so he took the initiative to invite him.

As a result, I found out that Tim Cook went to China half a year ago, and he never returned, no one knew what happened to Tim Cook now, and Jobs could only regretfully give up the idea of inviting Tim Cook.
