The richest man went on a blind date, and his 19-year-old daughter wanted to support me

Jobs was stunned. He had thought about a lot before coming here.

It is really weird that Chu Hang suddenly bought Apple's stock at this time.

Apple has not performed well in recent years. After Steve Jobs returned, although it launched a music player which received a good market response, it was not Apple's mainstream business. Apple's mainstream business is the personal computer business.

The music player is just a way to give Apple a taste of its own medicine.

He is holding back on a big move, but he has offended countless people. The capitalists want him to show good performance. It's not that there are people out there who are pessimistic about Apple, but he is just holding on.

"Now that I'm here, can you tell me your true purpose?"

Jobs didn't waste words. He was simple and direct. He understood Chu Hang's real purpose, which was the key.

Is it to join the board of directors?

Apple already has enough directors, and his relationship with the board is not good.

Adding another director will only bring trouble to yourself.

"Qiao, I just like Apple, or rather, I just like you as a person." Chu Hang gestured to the other party to eat.

"I know you're going to make a big move soon. I want to work with you, but I don't know you, so there's no way. It's easier for me to become a director of Apple. You will definitely come to see me because of the change in your shares!"

Chu Hang smiled and said, "Don't worry about me joining the board of directors. I have no idea about Apple. Even if I join the board of directors, I will support you. Just like your old friend Salis, I can be your staunch ally!"

It was no surprise that Jobs was able to offend most of the board members and still hold on to his position as Apple's CEO even after offending Wall Street because he had major shareholders supporting him behind the scenes.

Ms. Sally and he were old friends, and it was she who suggested that Jobs return when Apple was in decline.

The new generation of machines has not yet been announced, but Apple has already announced a press conference. Jobs was not surprised by Chu Hang's judgment that Apple would make a big move.

"What do you think of my next plan?"

"Of course, so I came from the East. Joe, let's cooperate. How about letting me process your new product?"

Chu Hang said: "I'm not forcing you, but I want to talk to you as a shareholder. I can get some discounts, right?"

"Can you do the processing for me? Do you have a factory?"

"I can own a factory anytime!" Chu Hang said, "I am the richest man in the mainland. I have already prepared a super industrial park. Now I am waiting for your order. Qiao, I know there must be many people looking for you to discuss cooperation. How much do they give you? How much per unit?"

"It's a secret!"

"Okay, I won't ask. I want $250 for one machine."

Jobs frowned immediately. The price was too high, which made him speechless.

Chu Hang smiled and said, "It's very high, isn't it?"

"It's too high! Your offer is simply speechless. Even North America doesn't dare to offer such a high price!"

"So how many machines did they promise to help you make? One million, two million, or three million?"

Chu Hang laughed and said, "Don't joke. We all know that North American OEM companies can't provide such a huge number. I can provide you with a scale of 10 million machines. I ask for a higher price, right? Compared with the market, I make very little money. You pay a high price, but you are buying the market."

"It's too high, it will increase costs!"

"Cost, isn't that paid by the consumers? Qiao, it seems you have no confidence in your phone!"

Jobs stared at Chu Hang fiercely: "How did you know about mobile phones?"

His first reaction was that there was industrial espionage in the company.

"Calm down, calm down!" Chu Hang said with a smile: "I know that people outside are speculating that your new plan is a personal computer, but I know you, Qiao, I know you better than you think!"

Uncle Qiao, you became a god by relying on your mobile phone. Computers have no future.

"You are an innovator, an idealist, a perfectionist, and I am a businessman!"

Chu Hang looked at Jobs and said, "You will never compromise with the mainstream. Otherwise, after you return, Apple's personal computer business will have already taken off. We have the same view that the future belongs to mobile phones. This time, in addition to discussing cooperation with you, I also want to talk to Google about mobile phone development. I heard that they are also researching mobile phone systems, right? There is nothing new, so don't be surprised."

When Chu Hang mentioned Google, Jobs breathed a sigh of relief. They were all in the same industry and knew each other. “You know a lot about Google?

Oh, I am the largest individual shareholder of Google!"

Chu Hang smiled and said, "Not unexpected..."

Steve Jobs was completely confused. It was no secret that Google had a mysterious natural person shareholder, and it was even a legend in Silicon Valley. After investing, he didn't care about anything at all, never interfered with the company's operations, and never attended the board of directors.

Old Qiao looked at Chu Hang again, and this time his eyes changed, "Yes, this time it's a mobile phone. I don't know if it will succeed. Why are you so confident?"

"Because you didn't do it, I wanted to do it!" Chu Hang said.

What a bullshit excuse, but Jobs nodded and said, "Let's talk about the order. I have received several quotes, and yours is too high. $250 is totally inappropriate. Why should I cooperate with you?

"Joe, when people like you and I discuss cooperation, price is not the deciding factor. The quotes you received are from companies that rely on orders to survive, and price processing is their mainstream business. By cooperating with you and me, we are creating a new market and a new era. No matter how high the price is, you as an upstream company will make money, it's just a matter of how much. That money belongs to Apple, not you personally. You only hold 1% of Apple's shares."

Chu Hang smiled and said, "We have a huge market in the East. If you cooperate with me, that market will be ours. If you cooperate with others, you will have one more enemy. Give me satisfactory conditions, shouldn't it?"

Chu Hang looked at Jobs and said, "Old Joe, you don't have confidence in your own product. You think Apple will be successful if it can sell a million phones, right? But I tell you, your sales may exceed 250 million. Which OEM factory in the world can satisfy this market? Besides me, I have a huge influence, a completed industrial park, and Dongfang Continent has mature workers and countless workers. US dollars cannot be less. If you don't agree now, I will ask for later. Don't compare me with those who make a living by OEM. We are different!"

Chu Hang took the last bite of beef.

He glanced at Old Joe, who was already on the verge of getting angry, and said, "I'll wait for your call. I'll treat you today!"
