Chapter 3023 Recording

"Record?" Cook was shocked. "You recorded it? Did you record our conversation just now?"

Zhou Buqi laughed and said, "I haven't been recording all the time. It just started when we were discussing the halving of AppleTV's commission. We just had a verbal discussion, and I finally got you to compromise and give in, reducing the 30% commission to 15%. I have to keep some evidence!"

Cook was really angry and amused. "It's just a small matter. Is it really that serious?"

Zhou Buqi said: "It's a small matter, but the principle is very strong. It's important to make Apple make concessions and cut the commission in half."

Cook said: "Don't worry, I'll keep my word!"

Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't count it. I've recorded it all. If you regret it, I'll take this recording to court to sue you... By the way, is such a recording valid in court?"

Cook felt like laughing.

I feel that even such a great boss like Zhou is a little childish.

But that's normal.

After all, he is only in his twenties, and it is not surprising that he shows some youthful naivety from time to time.

Zhou Buqi looked serious and worried, "Does this count as secretly recording?"

Cook said unhappily, “Forget it!”

Zhou Buqi pondered and said, "Based on my superficial understanding of the law, if it is a secret recording, it doesn't seem to count as evidence in court, right?"

"should be."

Cook thought this silly and naive young man was a little cute.

Zhou Buqi asked: "What should we do?"

Cook said: "Anyway, the commission will be carried out according to what we have agreed upon. You can communicate with Netflix and Apple TV can adopt the new commission model starting from the third quarter."

Zhou Buqu said solemnly, "Words are not enough, we need evidence...we need to record it."

"You record it!"

Cook couldn't do anything about him.

Zhou Buqi said in surprise: "So, you agree to record it?"

Cook said helplessly: "Agreed, agreed!"

Zhou Buqi said happily, "That's good. As long as you agree, this is not a secret recording, it is real evidence. I can communicate with Netflix, and Ziweixing Global can start developing the AppleTV App. If there is no definite guarantee, I have told Netflix in advance, and the Peacock App has been developed. If you suddenly regret it, I will be in a passive position. It will be much better with this recording."

Cook watched him leave contentedly and suddenly felt like laughing.

I feel that Xiao Zhou sometimes does things quite ridiculously.

It's just a change in AppleTV's commission. So far, the impact on Apple's revenue is less than 2000 million US dollars. Is it worth going through so much trouble for such a trivial matter?

Little did they know that Comrade Xiao Zhou had other intentions.

What people care about is not this damn commission reduction!

Instead, after discussing the changes in commissions, they talked about the headphone business.

  This is the key!

When talking about headphones, Zhou Buqi firmly grasped the initiative and pointed out that Cook should not copy the idea. Cook also made it clear that they had no intention of following up on the development of mobile Bluetooth headphones.

  This is the evidence!

By the next summer, the headphones designed by Zhou Buqi were launched, but Apple discovered that the shape of these headphones was almost exactly the same as their internal design... Who copied whom?

If a lawsuit really were to be filed, Zhou Buqi would also have solid evidence.

  The idea of ​​making wireless Bluetooth headsets for mobile phones was first proposed by Zhou Buqi, and Cook is at most a follower!

With this recording, Cook also admitted that this was not a secret recording, the procedure was fair, and Zhou Buqi firmly grasped the initiative.

……

After seven or eight days of hard work, Huo Hua finally took the first step towards success.

Transferred from the hotel to Zhou's house.

  From today on, she can live in the Zhou family mansion with another new secretary, Wang Langli!

But even though I had expected it to be a very large and magnificent top-class mansion, when I actually arrived I was still dazzled, as if I was in another world.

  This is more than just a mansion?

It's like a palace!

No, she had been to the Forbidden City, and the palaces there were all so small that she even felt a little sympathetic for the emperors, empresses, and concubines in ancient times, who could only live in such a small place for their entire lives. But this place was different, it was really huge!

"That's the reception building. Bodyguards, housekeepers, chefs, and guests usually live there. The main building in the middle is where we all live. You two will also stay here at night. Over there..." Zhao Limuge led the two newlyweds in, "Over there is a small museum. It hasn't been renovated yet. Some precious cultural relics will be displayed there. The small building over there is a library. There are tens of thousands of books in it. You two can go over and take a look when you have time."

“There are also museums…”

Wang Langli was a little stunned. Huo Hua looked at the huge swimming pool, where two or three beautiful girls with graceful bodies were playing. There were two other girls on the shore, wearing white swimsuits, who waved from afar when they saw the car coming back.

"Then..." Huo Hua pointed, "Senior sister, who are those girls? Are they Mr. Zhou... Are they relatives of Mr. Zhou's family?"

Zhao Limuge said softly: "No, they are all maids at home."

"maid……"

Huo Hua's heart was immediately shaken.

I feel like my confidence has taken a hit.

Looking at those beautiful young maids, it seems that in every aspect, they are no worse than me...

Zhao Limuge smiled and said, "Let's go back and change into our swimsuits and come over to swim!"

"Okay!"

Huo Hua was very happy. Just one look at such a luxurious swimming pool was enough to make one's heart excited.

Wang Langli said coyly: "I can't swim."

Huo Hua said with a smile: "It's okay, I'll teach you! It's very simple, I guarantee you'll learn it in 20 minutes!"

Zhao Limuge said, "Go put on your swimsuits and show your bodies to your boss. Hasn't he seen your bodies yet?"

Wang Langli's face turned red all of a sudden, and she bit her lip and stopped talking.

Huo Hua also became a little shy and whispered, "How...how do you see it?"

Zhao Limuge laughed and said, "How else can we see? Just use your eyes! It's okay, just change into your swimsuits and go swimming. The big boss will probably come and swim a lap, and then we'll see it."

Huo Hua said: "But I don't have a swimsuit."

"here has."

"My size..."

“We have all sizes here!”

"Oh."

Little girl Huo Hua stopped talking. She turned her head to look at Wang Langli and found that she was also a little confused and seemed to be full of confusion about the future.

  This is a completely different world!

It’s really a different world.

When I changed into my swimsuit, I opened my eyes.

Wang Langli was the first to discover the problem. In a huge swimsuit room of more than 200 square meters, there were probably thousands of swimsuits in all sizes, all from world-famous brands. She picked out a white and yellow one-piece swimsuit she liked, from the Gucci brand, but the tag had a note: "Swimsuits should not be exposed to water."

"You can't get in the water?" Wang Langli was a little stunned. "How can you swim if you can't get in the water?"

Zhao Limuge had already changed and said with a smile, "Some swimsuits are like that, used to show off one's figure. People usually wear those at indoor swimsuit parties. It's okay, just go in the water when you need to, don't worry about it. It's just that they will wrinkle and get deformed after going in the water, and you won't be able to wear them next time."

"Then I'd better change into another one."

"No need to change, wear it if you like, it's disposable anyway."

"Disposable?"

Wang Langli looked down and saw that Gucci is an international luxury brand.

Zhao Limuge said indifferently: "There are so many swimsuits here. If you don't wear them, they will all be thrown away next year and replaced with new ones. Just wear them once. The quality of these luxury swimsuits is not very good. They won't look good the second time you wear them... Hmm? You... what's wrong with you?"

This time it was embarrassing.

Wang Langli was not a secretary assigned in the office, and she had never worked properly in the company. After joining the company, she was busy taking care of her father's medical treatment.

So much so that she was not able to receive complete training for the office.

For example, the beauty projects in a beauty salon.

  It was noticed when she was changing into her swimsuit that Wang Langli hasn't shaved yet... I have to report this to Aunt Xue immediately to see what to do about this!

If it really doesn't work, we can only ask Aunt Xue to do it herself!
