When I am reborn, I just want to be a top student

The heat caused by this announcement from Galaxy Technology gradually dissipated with the passage of time, but the industry remains vigilant.

No one is a fool. Everyone can see that the updated beauty algorithms of Samsung and Apple are suspected of plagiarism.

Moreover, Galaxy Technology has said it twice in a row: don’t say we didn’t warn you.

This sentence has a unique deterrent effect in China.

Therefore, during this period of time, programmers from domestic mobile phone manufacturers have studied Meipai countless times.

However, no matter how we study, we can only come to one conclusion.

That is, Meipai's code is extremely excellent, which is reflected in the simplicity and efficiency of Meipai's algorithm program.

Mobile phone manufacturers at home and abroad have tried to improve this algorithm program, but there is only one consequence, that is, software bugs appear or the effect is weakened.

Faced with such a situation, each manufacturer has different response methods due to their own technical reserves.

At present, Apple has the highest technical level, followed by Samsung.

As for domestic manufacturers, they have not yet torn their faces apart and directly updated their products, but they are all ready to make a move.

After Apple launched the paid update feature, Samsung suddenly realized its mistake and regretted it.

It’s not that Samsung is eyeing the extra income from paid updates, but by doing so, it can greatly boost sales of new phones.

In multinational giants like Samsung, there is actually extremely in-depth research on consumer user psychology.

The purpose of studying consumer psychology is to make more money.

As a result, Samsung is naturally very unhappy to see Apple catching up.

It feels like getting up early and arriving late.

Tangdu.

Chen Lingyue quietly invested money in the stock market when Apple and Samsung launched their system updates.

Short Samsung and Apple!
The reason for doing this is because Chen Lingyue knows that once the backdoor is exposed, Apple and Samsung will become the laughing stock of the world.

At that time, it will be reflected in the stock market and there will be a sharp drop.

Therefore, short selling can only make money and not lose money.

The backup plan Wang Donglai left behind was actually very simple.

As long as you take a photo of the moon with your mobile phone, a watermark with three small words "Qiqiao Festival" will appear.

And there is one more thing that Wang Donglai has not told Chen Lingyue yet.

That is, Wang Donglai specially prepared some other effects based on the program codes of Samsung and Apple.

Secretly, Chen Lingyue was also paying attention to the system upgrades of Samsung and Apple users.

When he felt that the cooking was about right, he reported it to Wang Donglai.

Wang Donglai was somewhat annoyed by being criticized by netizens online.

However, he directed his anger at Apple and Samsung.

So, after receiving the report, the order was issued immediately.

"Okay, let's send out the third announcement immediately. This matter should come to an end!"

Following Wang Donglai's order, Galaxy Technology immediately took action.

The day of Chinese Valentine's Day.

The third announcement came out!
The content of this announcement is very simple and the number of words is not long.

But everyone who read the content of this announcement was terrified and keenly aware that a major incident was about to break out.

"Our company has always followed laws and regulations, respected patents, and maintained harmonious development of the industry, but this does not mean that our company does not have the strength and courage to protect itself."

"In response to the slander and infringement of our friends and competitors, our company has no choice but to take countermeasures!"

"We would like to kindly remind smartphone users that our Meipai software algorithm has a little bit of China's unique romantic trick. When you take a photo of the moon on the night of Chinese Valentine's Day, the three watermarks of Qiqiao Festival will appear in the photo."

In just a moment, the announcement spread across the entire Internet.

All mobile phone manufacturers were shocked, especially the technical teams who were writing codes were urgently gathered together.

However, these actions were already too late.

Galaxy Technology, which owns products such as Neihan and Toutiao, is no longer an ordinary Internet company.

In the area of ​​public opinion, we have our own propaganda platform.

So, this announcement spread very quickly.

There is no doubt that anyone who sees this announcement will subconsciously take a picture of the moon with their mobile phone.

Just like a virus spreading, a large number of comments suddenly appeared on the Internet.

at the same time.

Samsung and Apple users also saw the announcement and tried it out of curiosity.

As a result, something went wrong during this attempt.

Seeing the three bright Chinese characters of "Qiqiao Festival" in the photo watermark, the faces of Samsung and Apple users suddenly became excited.

It's not just that.

Samsung phone freezes one minute after taking photo.

Apple's screen goes black directly.

As a result, the two mobile phone users no longer have time to care about the photo watermark issue. They can only look at their broken mobile phones and feel helpless.

"Breaking news, don't use Samsung or Apple phones to take pictures of the moon. Anyone who does so will be punished by Chang'e!"

"Don't listen to the nonsense of the guy above. Be careful if you use Samsung or iPhone. Never take photos of the moon, because the words 'Qiqiao Festival' will appear on the photo, and the phone will break after one minute. According to the information we have received so far, Samsung phones will freeze, while Apple phones will have a black screen with sound."

"Oh my god, I just bought an iPhone!"

"One more piece of news. Currently, only Samsung and Apple phones will have this problem. As far as I know, Galaxy Technology has not authorized the Meipai algorithm program to these two companies. Therefore, the friendly companies and competitors mentioned in the previous announcement of Galaxy Technology are Samsung and Apple!"

"What a crappy phone! It crashed right after I took a picture of the moon. If I didn't have another phone, I wouldn't even be able to access the internet."

"Except for me, the other five people in my dormitory are all defeated. They all use Samsung and Apple. So cool!!!"

"The villain above, it is confirmed that the reason why your phone is not broken is because you can't afford Samsung or Apple. You still have the nerve to show off here."

"Some people are so used to being treated like dogs that they rush to buy junk electronic products, and they are even copied. It's really laughable!"

"Rotten apple, pay me back!"

For a time, a large number of victims and netizens who were watching the fun appeared on Internet platforms such as Toutiao, Weibo, Moments, Space, and Bihu.

Humans are very strange creatures. The more they are forbidden to do something, the more they want to do it.

Although many people have shared online that you should not use Samsung and Apple phones to take photos, many people are still very curious and take out their phones to try it out.

When you try it, no one says anything! When this happens in China, it is actually similar abroad.

But due to the time constraints, it does not have as much momentum and influence as in China.

When this incident broke out, Chen Lingyue simply went all in and used leverage in the stock market to short Samsung and Apple.

Kimchi country.

Samsung headquarters.

After something like this happened, the Chinese headquarters naturally did not dare to delay at all and directly made a phone call to the Korean headquarters.

When the emergency meeting was called, two hours had passed.

During these two hours, countless users adopted various methods.

I tried all the methods like shutting down and restarting, forced shutdown, etc.

The Samsung phone still won't turn on.

The voices criticizing these two companies online are getting louder and louder.

Among them, there is also a group of people who are watching the fun, trying to fish in troubled waters, and hope that the matter will become bigger and bigger.

"Give me an accurate answer immediately from the technical department. Do you have the ability to solve this problem?"

Li Sanxing had a blank expression on his face, staring at the head of the technical department with a sense of oppression, and asked in a deep voice.

The technical director's head was covered in sweat and looked a little panicked. Hearing this, he replied, "Chairman, we have tried it. The problem is that there is a slight conflict between the beauty algorithm program and the power control code. If we want to solve it perfectly, I'm afraid it will take some time."

Li Sanxing frowned and said decisively: "Now, I want to immediately restore all Samsung phones around the world so that they can be used normally. Can you do it?"

The technical director nodded vigorously and said, "Okay, give me half an hour!"

Li Sanxing took a deep look at the technical director and said in a deep voice, "I'll give you fifteen minutes. If you do it, you'll get a promotion and a raise, and your year-end bonus will double. If you can't do it, you'll have to prepare your resignation letter later!"

The technical director's eyes lit up, and he nodded vigorously, saying, "Don't worry, Chairman, I promise to complete the task on time!"

Having said that, the technical director quickly ran out of the meeting room with his computer.

After the technical director left, Li Sanxing looked at the many executives present, his face turned extremely ugly, and he shouted angrily: "Are you all a bunch of pigs?"

"With such an obvious program loophole, didn't you guys ever make any assumptions or conduct any investigations?"

"The reason why I don't criticize the technical department is that they are just doing the work, but you are the ones in charge. If there is a problem, I will only look for you. It is you who have the problem in management!"

"After something like this happened, you should all think carefully about what to do and how to make amends. This concerns each of your year-end bonuses and dividends this year!"

After saying that, Li Sanxing stood up and left, leaving the questions to the executives present.

"Now, the biggest problem is not just the problem of the phone freezing, but the announcement from Galaxy Technology. We absolutely cannot admit the title of patent infringement!"

"As far as I know, Meipai's algorithm has not been patented worldwide, so we can definitely use this excuse!"

"Privately settle the matter, continue to provide them with the chips that were blocking Galaxy Technology, and make some concessions on the price in exchange for them shutting up!!!"

"If they are willing to shut up, we can show more sincerity, such as obtaining priority in chip supply and allocating some high-performance chips to Galaxy Technology."

"One more thing, we can use the power of the Chinese government to negotiate this matter solemnly based on the diplomatic relations between the two countries, and put some pressure on Galaxy Technology!"

"..."

It has to be said that those who can reach the position of senior executives at Samsung are all smart people.

In just a few words, he came up with a solution.

……

the other side.

Apple headquarters in Bald Eagle received the news not much later than Samsung headquarters.

But the time to react was much slower.

Three hours later, Apple held an emergency meeting.

When the Apple executives received the news, they all looked in disbelief and could not believe that such a thing would happen at Apple.

You know, with its unique and closed IOS system, Apple has always been extremely confident in this regard.

However, it was broken today.

After the executives gathered, everyone saw the situation.

Many people also breathed a sigh of relief.

Compared with Samsung phones, the number of black screen issues on Apple phones is not that common.

This is mainly because Apple adopts a paid update method, rather than the free automatic update method for all Samsung phones.

Plus the $99 price tag, it’s also a considerable expense, so in the end, not many users pay for updates.

And this, at this time, actually became the key point that made Apple executives feel relieved.

The fewer users are affected, the less brand impact Apple will suffer, and the better the value of the Apple brand will be preserved.

"Didn't the technical department do a test? Why did such a problem still occur? I think the technical department should bear the greatest responsibility for this incident!"

"Why did this happen? The marketing and public relations departments reacted so slowly. It's been almost four hours, and the incident was not handled immediately. It has now seriously affected the company's stock price!"

As soon as they opened their mouths, the heads of the two departments began to attack each other, trying to make each other take the blame.

But in Internet companies, it is the most normal thing.

Everyone takes credit for the project’s success!
The project failed, you pushed it off and I quit, for fear of getting burned!
"Okay, now is not the time to pursue responsibility. There are still a few hours until dawn. We need to come up with a practical plan before the stock market opens."

"Remember, if this matter is not handled properly, you will all be affected. Now, for your own future, think carefully about what to do!"

Cook looked at everyone calmly and said coldly.

After hearing Cook's words, many executives in the conference room temporarily put aside their calculations and started to think seriously.

"The technical department has found the problem and can solve it quickly. We just need to replace the previous updated beauty algorithm program with the previous one!"

"There are 10 users worldwide who paid for the upgrade. For these users, we will actively refund the fees and provide an additional $ in compensation."

"This matter has already fermented. The best thing to do now is to prepare for short selling immediately and suffer as little loss as possible."

"In addition, we immediately contacted the media about this matter and promoted it as the company being attacked maliciously, and due to certain technical factors, this mobile phone problem occurred. We will reserve the right to pursue responsibility!"

"Galaxy Technology has not filed a patent application in our country yet, so we can operate in this regard! We are not afraid of lawsuits, but we will never admit to patent infringement!"

"..."

You and I talked and put forward various suggestions.

Cook, who was sitting on the table, nodded from time to time and finally said, "The compensation has been increased from ten dollars to twenty dollars. In addition, contact the law firm immediately and prepare to respond to the lawsuit and sue."

"Finally, contact the global media, release more new machine data, and cover up and cool down this matter. It must not cause shocks and affect the brand value!"

After hearing the final decision made by CEO Cook, everyone nodded and began to act separately. (End of this chapter)
