The Immortal Warrior: From Reverse Engineering to Forging Swords for the Country

Chapter 252: Forcing You to Become an Rival [Request Full Order]

Jobs shook his head angrily. He was already a little extremely irritable at this moment.

Because he placed all his hopes for Apple's revival on the iPhone.

He invested a lot of effort in this product.

He is eager to make a comeback with this product and make Apple a world-class technology company again!

But now, his hopes have almost been dashed.

"We have to take action!"

"We can't let them steal our intellectual property!"

Jobs muttered.

Steve shrugged and asked Jobs, "Hey, man, what's your brilliant idea?"

"Don't forget, we even source our chips and processors for iPhones from China."

"China provides the vast majority of the world's chip production capacity."

"The chips they provide are technologically advanced, high quality and low price, and have almost completely defeated similar domestic companies."

"Our Intel, AMD and other companies are now relying on us to block the domestic market to survive!"

"We are already too weak."

“The world has changed dramatically.”

"We just have a huge overlord frame, and the substantive content has collapsed."

Jobs sighed a little frustratedly and said, "I want to go to their press conference!"

“I want to show our products to the world!”

"I want to prove to people that we are the inventors of the fully intelligent touch-screen mobile phone!"

"I believe people will definitely give us justice!"

Steve shook his head.

He thought Jobs was a little too naive.

"Well, then, maybe we could give it a try."

"But I don't think it will have any effect."

"Man, I think we could maybe go talk to each other and maybe we could work together."

"You know, they can't enter our domestic market now."

After his furious outburst, Jobs had calmed down a little.

He also knew that at the moment, his Apple was still too weak compared to Zhang Zhipeng's Huaxing Group.

Apple has no chance of competing with Huaxing Group.

"You're right. Perhaps we can go look for Zhang Zhipeng."

"Maybe we can cooperate."

Both Jobs and Steve were a little upset at the moment. They looked at the time and saw that it was still early for Huaxing Group to hold a press conference, so they went downstairs to the lobby on the first floor.

They also didn't know where to find Zhang Zhipeng.

There is no other way, so I can only ask the staff.

They reached the workbench where the workers were.

There are quite a few people gathered here to consult.

There were at least thirty or forty people surrounding them.

There are three layers of it inside and outside, and it's completely packed.

Looking at this situation, it is unclear when it will be their turn for consultation.

Jobs felt a surge of frenzy in his heart again.

He is a passionate person, and he wants to do everything in a swift and efficient manner.

He just wanted to squeeze to the front.

Steve grabbed him and said, "Don't do this, man. This will only make things worse."

Jobs took a deep breath and finally stopped.

He also knew that now he was the one in a passive situation.

He couldn't show his rudeness and domineering here.

This is not his stage to perform.

Steve whispered in Jobs' ear: "Hey, man, if we really meet Zhang Zhipeng later, you must stay calm! Don't get too excited."

"Because if you're rude in front of him, then we really won't stand a chance."

Jobs took a deep breath and said, "I know, I understand that!"

"I'm not a fool."

There was suddenly a burst of noise at the hotel entrance.

Quite a few people seemed to be flocking into the hotel.

Jobs turned his head and saw a tall and handsome Chinese man walking into the lobby surrounded by a large group of security personnel.

This person is none other than Zhang Zhipeng!

Outside the security guards, some reporters tried to run to the front to take pictures.

Some reporters asked Zhang Zhipeng questions loudly.

However, Zhang Zhipeng did not respond.

Jobs looked at Zhang Zhipeng from afar. He felt that this man was like a person sent down from heaven, so unattainable.

It was this person who created a series of myths, helped China to rise rapidly, and also interrupted the national destiny of Ame's development.

Jobs felt a little ashamed in front of him.

Originally, he wanted to argue with the other party.

But now, he felt that it would be blasphemy if he even shouted at him.

"That's Zhang Zhipeng. We should find a way to meet him."

Steve said to Jobs at this time.

Jobs sighed and said, "We can't even get close."

"The security around him is too tight."

“He’s like a real big shot.”

Steve spread his hands: "Then what should we do?"

"We can't just let this opportunity slip away, can we?"

After he finished speaking, he suddenly shouted in English in the direction of Zhang Zhipeng: "Hey! Zhang, look here!"

"This is Steve Jobs, the CEO of Apple. We have something important to discuss with you!"

Zhang Zhipeng was walking into the hall, and the environment around him was a bit noisy.

However, Steve's voice was still quite loud.

Zhang Zhipeng heard it.

He glanced over there.

There stood two tall white men.

One of them looked familiar.

Zhang Zhipeng took another look and recognized him: Isn’t that Steve Jobs?

Was it Steve Jobs who was yelling at me just now?
He actually said that he had something important to discuss with me?
Zhang Zhipeng knew what the other party wanted to talk to him about without even thinking.

Maybe Jobs was a little anxious when he saw that he was going to release a new generation of all-intelligent touch-screen mobile phones?

Well, you can talk to him and see what he wants to do.

Zhang Zhipeng said to Yu Chengdong beside him: "Chengdong, go ask those two white people over there what they want."

Yu Chengdong agreed and walked towards where Jobs and the other man were standing.

When Jobs saw that Zhang Zhipeng had sent someone over, his heart beat faster.

He really didn't expect that Steve's casual shout could actually attract Zhang Zhipeng.

Yu Chengdong came in front of Jobs and the other man.

"What can I do for you?" Yu Chengdong asked in somewhat broken English.

Jobs said seriously: "I am Steve Jobs, the president of Apple. Have you heard of Apple?"

Yu Chengdong smiled and said, "I've heard of it."

Jobs said: "I heard that you are going to release a new generation of all-intelligent touch-screen mobile phones, is that true?"

Yu Chengdong nodded and said, "Yes, do you have any questions?"

Jobs said, "The product you described looks very similar to what we have already developed."

Yu Chengdong raised his eyebrows and said, "So, what's the problem?"

Jobs said stubbornly: "I suspect that you have stolen our intellectual property."

Yu Chengdong laughed out loud after hearing this: "Haha! This is really interesting!"

"We are the most powerful technology company in the world. More than two years ago, we launched a full-touch smart tablet computer. The mobile phone we are about to launch is just a similar product to our tablet computer!"

"How dare you say we stole your intellectual property?"

"You really don't have any shame at all, huh?"

"Why, do you still want to charge me with accusations?"

"So can we also accuse you of stealing our intellectual property?"

Yu Chengdong was not polite to Jobs at all and confronted him directly.

Jobs was not very famous in China at that time.

It was after he invented the iPhone in his previous life that he became famous in China.

However, Yu Chengdong naturally knew Jobs.

After all, Yu Chengdong is an insider!
Steve saw that the person sent by Zhang Zhipeng had a falling out with Jobs as soon as they met. If this continued, what the hell would they be able to talk about next?

He quickly smiled and tried to smooth things over: "Sir, I'm sorry, Mr. Jobs didn't mean that. He said the wrong thing."

"It's like this. We hope to talk to you about cooperation. I wonder if Mr. Zhang can give us a chance?"

Yu Chengdong said sullenly, "I don't know where we can cooperate."

"It seems that you don't have any bargaining chips to discuss cooperation with us."

Yu Chengdong is suppressing the opponent with force.

Take advantage of the situation to deal a heavy blow to the opponent.

Steve smiled bitterly and said, "Sir, we really don't have any bargaining chips."

"But we can give you the icing on the cake."

"Your company still cannot enter Aramco's market, is that right?"

Yu Chengdong snorted and said, "Yes, but Amei's market is not that important to us."

"They can just shut themselves off from the outside world. It doesn't make much sense!"

Jobs couldn't help but say, "Amei's market is the largest in the world, and you actually said it's not very meaningful?"

Yu Chengdong sneered: "What era are you still thinking in?"

"China has already become the world's largest single market three years ago."

"For any bulk commodity, China has the highest sales volume!"

"The reason why Aramco still insists on being the world's largest single market is because the consumer prices in many industries there are too high!"

"For example, your medical costs are at least five times higher than in China!"

"And your lawyers and accountants can actually create a GDP of more than $1 trillion."

“You guys, GDP is full of bubbles!”

"With a GDP like this, I ask you, what's the point?"

“Does this kind of consumption have a positive impact on ordinary people?”

What Yu Chengdong said are all indisputable facts.

Both Jobs and Steve were a little speechless.

They were dismayed to find that they had no psychological advantage over the other party.

Jobs sighed and said, "Sir, no matter what, our Aramco is still an important market in the world."

"We hope to cooperate with you. Yes! The cooperation method can refer to IBM."

Yu Chengdong smiled.

So this is ah.

Yu Chengdong said: "If you had told us the truth from the beginning and wanted to cooperate with us in this way, then there would be no conflict!"

“In addition, cooperation means win-win.”

"It's not about who's asking for help, you know?"

"In fact, you need us more."

"I hope you guys can correct your attitude."

Steve smiled and nodded, saying, "You are right, we did make some mistakes."

Yu Chengdong looked at the watch on his wrist and said, "I'll ask the boss if they're willing to see you!"

Yu Chengdong called Zhang Zhipeng and asked for his instructions.

Zhang Zhipeng said: "Let them come to the room! Give them 15 minutes."

After the call, Yu Chengdong said to Jobs and the others, "Come with me!"

Only then did Jobs and the other man breathe a sigh of relief.

At first they were really worried about not being able to see Zhang Zhipeng.

When we arrived at the lounge where Zhang Zhipeng was staying, Zhang Zhipeng did not come out to greet us.

Instead, he was still sitting on the sofa, flipping through a document.

Three bodyguards stood around him.

The air pressure in the room is a little low.

Zhang Zhipeng felt that there was no need to be nice to Jobs and the other guy.

Jobs followed Yu Chengdong into Zhang Zhipeng's room and saw Zhang Zhipeng sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed.

The other party didn't even look at the two of them.

This is too rude.

Jobs was a little angry.

However, he then thought, what could he have to make Zhang Zhipeng look up to him?

Jobs felt a little aggrieved, and he followed Yu Chengdong to a place about one meter away from Zhang Zhipeng.

Only then did Zhang Zhipeng raise his head and take a look.

Yu Chengdong smiled and said, "Boss, these two are the president and vice president of Apple. His name is Steve Jobs and his name is Steve..."

Yu Chengdong pointed at two people and introduced them to Zhang Zhipeng.

Zhang Zhipeng nodded and said, "Sit down."

Jobs and Steve sat down.

Zhang Zhipeng looked at the time and said in English: "To make a long story short, it will be done in ten minutes."

"Who of you two will start?"

Jobs swallowed his saliva. Just as he was about to speak, Steve pulled his collar from behind and said, "Mr. Zhang, we came here this time because we hope to discuss in-depth cooperation with you..."

Steve shared his idea with Zhang Zhipeng.

After listening to this, Zhang Zhipeng said with a smile: "I heard that you think we have stolen your intellectual property!"

"Under this circumstance, the cooperation between the two parties will not be very pleasant!"

"My advice is: you'd better find other partners!"

"After all, you have advanced new-generation mobile phone technology!"

Zhang Zhipeng rejected it slowly.

Zhang Zhipeng is never polite to the arrogant Lizard people.

Steve blushed and said, "Oh, it's a misunderstanding. It's all a misunderstanding. I hope Mr. Zhang can forgive me."

"If your company cooperates with us, we will be able to achieve the maximum win-win situation."

Zhang Zhipeng said: "I don't think we will win together."

"You don't have to be so anxious to cooperate now."

"You have your all-intelligent touch mobile phone technology, and we have ours! Why don't we compete?"

"Maybe you can succeed in the competition and win?"

"I want to advise you not to underestimate yourselves!"

Zhang Zhipeng refused directly.

Because Apple's founder, Steve Jobs, is a strong man.

He will never be content to be inferior to others.

Who knows if the so-called cooperation is just a delaying tactic?

Moreover, if Huaxing wants to find partners in the Aramco market, can't it just wave its hands and a bunch of companies will come to it?
Why do we have to cooperate with Apple?

Jobs and Steve were both stunned.

They didn't expect that Zhang Zhipeng would refuse so bluntly.

Jobs snorted, stood up and walked outside.

He is a man of character.

Of course he couldn't stand Zhang Zhipeng's coldness.

Steve even reached out and pulled.

In the end, he was unable to hold back Jobs.

He quickly stood up and bowed slightly to Zhang Zhipeng and said, "Mr. Zhang, I know that you may have some misunderstandings about us."

"However, I firmly believe that these misunderstandings will be resolved."

“We can definitely become good partners in the future.”

Zhang Zhipeng said, "Well! It's good that you have this attitude! Goodbye, I won't see you off!"

Steve chased Jobs away.

He gave two quick steps and finally caught up with Jobs.

"Dude, why are you running so fast..."

"You can't be so willful to Zhang Zhipeng."

Jobs sighed and said, "They treated us like an emperor. I cannot accept this attitude."

"And, Steve, you see that, too, don't you?"

"The other party has no intention of cooperating with us at all!"

"I think we have to fight for it!"

"We have to develop our own technology as much as we can! We have to make it more user-friendly and advanced!"

"I will defeat them in an upright manner!"

All Jobs hopes now is to develop his new generation of mobile phones as quickly as possible.

In the blink of an eye, it was time for Huaxing Group's new product launch conference to begin.

Yu Chengdong walked onto the stage in high spirits.

Today, he is the protagonist of the press conference.

Today is also the first time he shows himself in front of his boss Zhang Zhipeng.

Yu Chengdong was a little excited.

There are quite a few big names coming to the press conference today.

Big guys from all over the world.

However, the biggest star at the scene is still Zhang Zhipeng.

"Good morning, distinguished guests and friends!"

"We are holding a press conference here today mainly to release a brand new mobile phone product that can revolutionize the world!"

A PPT presentation began to appear on the big screen behind Yu Chengdong.

He began to explain the innovative features of the new smart touch-screen phone to the media reporters and industry leaders present.

This new smart phone can make video calls when in WiFi mode, play games, watch videos, read e-books, listen to music, take photos, and surf the Internet!
Almost everything you can do on a computer, you can do on a smartphone.

Even work can be done on the phone...

While Yu Chengdong was giving a PPT presentation, he was also demonstrating it with a smartphone in his hand, and Jobs was stunned.
