Unparalleled True Technology

Chapter 48: No shares

When Apple and Hasbro Toys began negotiating peripheral cooperation issues, a number of online news media in the United States and a limited number of traditional news media began to report on Apple.

After paying the bill, these news media's coverage of Apple Inc. was simply spared no effort.

In addition to the phenomenon called "Plant Vs Zombies", Instagarm is also touted by the news media. If you read those news reports, many viewers will think that if you do n’t use If Instagarm is software, it will be as if it is behind this era.

This feeling is like a social network account that is an American college student and middle school student, but does not have Facebook.

For a while, the number of registered users of Instagarm ushered in another surge.

Of course, the main reason is that after 48 hours of fermentation, the first batch of more than 5 million registered users are already familiar with the software Instagarm and enjoy the convenience brought by this software.

In the past, they wanted to share the photos they took, and they needed to beautify them before uploading. Now, with Instagarm, they can beautify directly with one click, and then upload with one click.

In addition, when sharing photos via Instagarm, you can also add descriptions and add locations. Because the server was rented, Wenming also requested the establishment of a micro-community, which allows users of Instagarm to interact with other users by following, commenting, and liking.

The practicality of the software has allowed more than 5 million people to help him actively promote it.

西方 The software in the United States and other Western countries is almost universal, and there are no barriers at all. When the number of registered users of Instagarm began to skyrocket, in addition to the United States, mobile phone users in Canada, the United Kingdom and other countries also began to recognize the software, and then download and use it.

By this time, the promotion of Instagarm, a game of "Plant Vs. Zombies", was negligible.

"Happy cooperation!"

Because Apple's fame broke out, their business cooperation with Hasbro Toys Co., Ltd., got very great benefits. It can almost be said that it is the Hasbro Toy Company that can give the best outside contract.

的 Sith, who has completed this negotiation task, has not been able to immediately help Apple get huge amounts of cash, but it has opened up a long-term financial source for Apple's future.

Wu Wenming rushed to Apple Inc. when Sith sent away the children's treasure toy company.

Actually, Wenming has been living at Apple for a while, living in his office. After the next laboratory was completed, he moved to the laboratory.

"You don't want to come and see it in less than a minute's walk?"

Sith complained: "The company's books now have a lot of money. You can rent or buy a good apartment or even a villa, and then buy a car and ask for a driver. How can there be a billionaire, every day How about living in your own company? "

Billionaire is Wen Ming's new nickname. Compared with the previous Heris, he is definitely more capable.

Although "Plant Vs Zombies" hasn't created a billion-dollar income for him, this is a doomed fact. Coupled with the virtual valuation brought by the existing users of Instagarm, Wenming is definitely a billionaire. This title.

"This is convenient for me to do research."

He Wenming handed a USB flash drive to Sith, saying, "This is a brand new mobile phone chip that I designed. I named it A4. I want to register a patent as soon as possible."

Lucis took the USB drive, put it directly into his pocket, and asked, "Are you ready?"

Wu Wenming nodded and said, "It's decided, and when the preliminary review begins, we can place orders with those hardware vendors."

技术 A technology does not mean that it can be used after the patent is approved, because the patent application time is very long. Especially for invention patents, the application time is tens of months. This is why, many patents applied by high-tech companies, others do not know what they are used for.

The patents used after application are called advanced research and development. All the products on the market today use technology developed almost a year or more ago.

Although Wenming Ming is also doing advanced research and development, some technologies must be used as soon as possible, such as the A4 chip of Iphone4.

The A4 chip is not an invented technology, because the chip has been invented for many years. Wenming's A4 chip designed based on Apple ’s technical knowledge can only be regarded as a utility model technology designed for Iphone alone. If this technology is applied for a patent, it requires It takes much less time than invention patents, and usually can be completed in a few months.

(Ps: check the information, if there are errors, please correct the boss.)

Instead of persuading Wenming not to invest in mobile phones, Sith said: "If we enter the preliminary review stage, we can directly authorize hardware manufacturers to manufacture without worrying about other issues. By the way, the design patents for mobile phones, It has been officially accepted, and it is estimated that it can be completely handled within one or two months. "

Like technology, the appearance of many products can also be patented. The appearance of previous Apple iPhones has been patented. This is naturally not to be ignored by Wenming. Of course, even if he applied for a patent, some mobile phone manufacturers will still imitate or even copycat directly, which is something that can't be avoided at all.

Wen Ming of the previous life likes this kind of cottage behavior very much. His dream of a sports car rests on the world's No. 1 automaker with a tape measure. But after passing through, those products have been developed by him, and after becoming his interests, he began to hate those cottage behaviors.

"We need to contact LG as soon as possible, because it takes too long to produce our customized screens. However, if there are other mobile phone screen manufacturers who can give us more discounts under the same quality standards, we can also consider Other companies. "

Iohone4, a previous generation of Wenming Ming, uses LG's mobile phone screens. The cost of each piece is 28.5 yuan, and the cost of its chip is $ 10.75, which is a mess. The hardware cost of an Iphone4 is $ 187.5. Of course, this does not include the costs of human resources, transportation, advertising, software development, research and development, and patent licensing fees.

The unlocked 16GB version of the Iphone4 is priced at $ 499, and the 32GB version is priced at $ 599.

So, it is no joke that Apple Inc. can get the total profit of global smartphones ~ www.novelmtl.com. (Ps: So, do you still buy apples?)

Most importantly, does Wenming have R & D costs?

No!

After responding to Wenming's job request, Lucis said, "Now that you have decided, then it is time for us to contact the communications operator."

In the United States, when you buy a mobile phone, you usually choose to bind the communication operator, because the price will be much cheaper for consumers.

Take Iphone4 for example. When it was released, there was a contract version. If you signed a two-year contract, the 16GB version will only cost $ 199, and the 32GB version will only cost $ 299.

当然 Of course, it is impossible for Apple to be a fool, and the benefits of price reduction will be compensated by the communications operator.

可以 "Yes, this is up to you!"

Wen Ming wanted to be a shopkeeper, and Sith had to helplessly agree, but he still complained: "I think my salary should go up. The work I am doing now is completely the head of the five or six departments. Work done."

Qi Wenming laughed: "The more able people can work harder, the salary will not rise for the time being. We need cash now and give you some original shares."

Jessie took a moment, and judging from Apple's current development momentum, the valuation is definitely a lot. Compared to the temporary salary, it is definitely more cost-effective to take shares, but this cost-effective is for him, not for Wenming.

"I'm just kidding."

Although becoming a boss's partner and getting a certain amount of shares, companies are very common in the startup period, but Apple's development is too fast, Sith does not want to take advantage of Wenming.

Wu Wenming understood Sith's idea, jokingly said, "Rest assured that Apple cannot fail."
