American Fortune Life

Chapter 389 The Apple Company Who Was Trapped to Death Without Knowing It

He regards the abandoned shoes of others as treasures. Everyone has different perspectives and positions. In the eyes of the Graham family, "Newsweek" is a huge pit, a money-losing product. They don't care about its influence at all, because they control the even more powerful "Washington Post" group .

But Andy needs the credibility and influence in the world that "Newsweek" has established over the past 70 years to increase his voice in the media and the world, even if it requires him to spend a lot of dollars to support it .

To a certain extent, the Smith family is also happy to see such a newspaper in their hands. After all, no matter how good the relationship with other newspapers is, to put it bluntly, it belongs to someone else, and there is no comparison at all.

The news media in the United States are all in the hands of private consortiums. They control the direction of public opinion. To put it exaggeratedly, they control the ideological bias of the people. News will only give them what they want the people to see.

This is also the main reason why people's trust in the credibility of traditional media has dropped to the lowest point after the advent of the self-media era, and many people even think that the news on TV and newspapers are all fake and unreliable.

Andy naturally knows how much impact self-media will bring to traditional media in the future, so he did not carry out any internal transformation for the "Observer" he took over, but respected the concept of the newspaper at the beginning of the newspaper. The only thing that changed was the addition of his News communication concept.

All news reports that appear in weekly magazines must be true and reliable. To make a judgment, you must list supporting data. Try not to make judgments with guiding bias, and let readers make their own judgments based on the detailed data listed. This point especially important.

What the traditional media do most is self-righteously want to influence the people's thinking, they don't care about the authenticity, as long as they can use the content of the report to influence the people to stand on their point of view.

This is also the biggest reason why Americans are disgusted with traditional media reports after the advent of self-media.

As for the issue of the weekly style after taking over Newsweek, Andy doesn't want to interfere. After all, this is a company with a long history and a long-standing style of running a newspaper. Change means negation, but the fierceness before It needs to be relieved slowly, although it will not be gentle, but it cannot be opposed for the sake of opposition.

In a word, speak with the facts, put an end to any artificial factors in making news, you can have your own voice, but you must use data to support it, and you must not deceive readers.

Andy sat on the boss chair in the office, wrote down his news concept and thinking on the computer, checked it carefully, and chose to save it after confirming that there was no problem. Finally, he sent an email to all the employees of the two newspapers in his hand.

He picked up the phone and called Blair of the game company. In the past few days, his think tank has frequently sold Apple stocks. In addition, the market is a bit suspicious, which has led to a wave of decline in Apple stocks. He is really worried that this will cause Apple to If the company hates him, then the cooperation negotiations with Apple that Blair is in charge of may be disrupted.

This is something that can’t be helped. Compared with the possible profits from this real estate crash, Apple’s cooperation has become a bit insignificant. Besides, if Apple does not choose to cooperate with game companies, then the mobile phones they produce will be in a very short period of time. For a long time, it can only be used for phone calls, listening to music, and taking pictures, without even a decent software application.

Besides, the stock is his own, and he can sell it as he wants. Jobs has an opinion, okay, come and recruit him, let him join the board of directors!

Ahem, Andy is thinking too much, unless he holds more than 5% of the shares, he may need to make a shareholder change announcement. At that time, maybe Jobs will worry that he will mess with him.

This is also something Andy needs to consider after the economic crisis, becoming a shareholder of Apple, and then lying on this giant company to suck blood.

In the future, Apple will make a profit of 5 billion yuan a year, but only 67 billion yuan will fall to Apple, and the rest will be distributed to shareholders as dividends. This is a good investment that can make money while lying at home.

Blair was a bit confused by his boss's question, but he still introduced the situation to the boss, and the cooperation negotiation was relatively smooth. Compared with the present, there is no conflict of interest, and cooperation can benefit both sides.

Andy didn't feel relieved until he knew that the matter went well. This kind of cooperation now seems to be mutually beneficial, and it will be the same in the short term. But as Apple mobile phones seize the global market, Jobs and Apple will definitely regret it. What kind of moth came out to break the contract, after all, the benefits are touching.

"Boss, the 10-year cooperation period is really too long, and we have to give 10% of the profits to Apple. We are at a disadvantage."

Andy held the phone and covered his face with his hands. It really disgusted Blair's complaints. Nima, if he knows that no matter what the future Apple is, as long as they pass through their platform and love crazy mobile phones, they will Taking 30% of the toll, I don't know if I will blush for what I said today.

This is when Apple itself lacks confidence in the icrazy mobile phone, and they are going to kill them. After they seize the mobile phone market, they will definitely regret it.

"...Have you explained the content of liquidated damages to the other party in detail?" Andy was silent for a moment, he didn't want to be entangled in Blair's shortsightedness, after all, he could see the future, while others couldn't. , Dividing the profit to the current icrazy mobile phone really seems to be taking advantage of Apple.

"It shows that all the profits from the sale of Apple mobile phones are 10 times. Although they once questioned that the penalty for breach of contract is too high, we have also reached a consensus after our arguments. "Zombie", "Minecraft" and "Fruit Swordsman". We also agreed to their request to sell the full version download in the Apple store.

However, on the issue of payment, everyone has differences. The boss, you have given instructions in the briefing, and we have also made concessions according to your decision. Apple can directly collect it, and settle the payment every month. Interest. "

"Well, very well, Blair, maybe you still can't understand the intention of some of my decisions, but it doesn't matter. In the future, you will know that the concessions we have made now are very worthwhile. Perhaps, at that time, Apple will regret signing this agreement. A cooperation document..."

Andy asked about the development progress of each team of the game company, and he repeatedly told him to pay attention to the matter of transplanting to mobile phones, to speed up the progress, and to provide support and support in both funds and manpower.

Hanging up the phone, I laughed heartily a few times, taking advantage of my foresight, bundling my game with the icrazy series of mobile phones, and putting shackles on Apple, making them vomit even if they regret it enough to vomit blood Blood completes the contract.

Hehe, the liquidated damages of 10 times the profits from mobile game sales, hehe, unless Apple has a real reason to spend billions of dollars to terminate the contract, the game "Minecraft" alone can sell 10,000 sets every day, I don't remember If it is wrong, in six years, the PC version alone has sold 20000000 sets. Of course, if Apple really wants to get tough, this amount of money is nothing.

But this matter itself is not worth the price they paid to take down the game that can get a share of the money, even if it is only 10% of the profit, although this is very aggrieved for the domineering Apple company.

But after a long time, you will get used to it when you are aggrieved!

Being able to get angry at Apple made Andy feel extremely comfortable. Big Macs like Apple, wherever they go, they always look like I’m number one in the world. If you don’t listen to me, you will be teased, and you will hate your rogue company. He gritted his teeth and was upset, but he couldn't do anything about himself. It was simply a glorious deed that should be praised a thousand times in Andy's opinion.

Maybe when Apple is going to tear itself apart, I should just look at them and say: "I like the way you can't understand me and can't kill me!"
