Chapter 691: Responding to Apple's Default

Without one or two years of opening and improvement, cloud computing projects cannot produce results in a short period of time. Even with Dr. Ye’s kernel program, the team needs further development, but it will greatly shorten the development time.

After all, in the field of it, time represents a huge wealth.

The next day, Rich Green, who received the call notification, came to the company to sign a work contract. After Andy, as the big boss, introduced him to all the staff, his 23rd company also officially welcomed its eO.

"Okay, this office is yours, and I can go to the UK with confidence. At the meeting just now, you also heard that the company still needs to recruit professional talents to accelerate the development of operating procedures, as well as the talent reserves required for a series of artificial intelligence components."

Andy held the coffee and looked at Rich Green on the opposite side leisurely and said, to be honest, he was very interested in managing the operation of a large company in the past, but as wealth accumulates, there are more and more companies under it, and that idea has become a bit weak, or a bit unrealistic.

However, this management model that directly controls professional managers is more handy. For foreigners, Andy has never had a luxury to ask for loyalty. Instead, it is honest, professional ethics, and contract spirit that makes him feel more at ease than the illusory loyalty that requires long-term cultivation and testing.

Of course, supervision is essential, so he has always implemented the legal department and finance department to screen and manage its talents from its think tank, so that if you know each company well, your development direction will not go off the curve at the strategic level.

The most important point is that all Andy's companies are non-listed companies, and their shares are firmly controlled in his own hands. He does not have to worry about the company's power. Obedient and capable professional managers will reuse them and give them full trust and wrong-minded people. They do not need to come forward. A single authorization can be directly fired by the company's legal department, and Andy does not even need to come forward.

"I understand." Ritch Green's expression was very serious. He did not expect that the company would hold such a big killer, cloud computing kernel operation program, and the initial model of artificial intelligence.

This made him extremely excited. He will now run a future super unicorn company, which has to be said that this will make his career even brighter.

"Boss, I think if we set up a studio ourselves to start from scratch, the time and human resources required to be a bit more cost-effective if we do it in a technical component program such as image recognition technology, face core technology, speech recognition, speech synthesis, natural language understanding.

There are not many studios like this with professional skills in Silicon Valley. We can completely screen out some potential development teams for mergers and acquisitions according to our needs to improve our own needs.

Spending more than tens of millions or hundreds of millions of dollars is not something that is unacceptable to your boss. Our company can rely on swallowing, absorbing and digesting to obtain a complete technology tree. This is undoubtedly the easiest and an important part that can promote the company's technological leap in a short period of time."

Andy agrees with Ritch Green's point of view very much. He has also considered this solution, but at present he believes that cloud computing is the top priority for companies to develop. After all, the evolution and learning of artificial intelligence require huge data as the basis.

However, now it seems that we should indeed prepare early and make the company's technical reserves first, which is the so-called company technology tree, to deepen the foundation of Moushika Company.

"Okay, this matter is left to you. I believe your judgment and vision will not disappoint me."

Hearing the words of the young boss, Ritch Green did not show any flattering expression, but just smiled calmly. He was still very confident in running a company. After all, the plan to allow Bea and ibm to compete for the market and rely on eroding market share to finally defeat this giant company was directed by him. As for Bea's final acquisition by Larry Ellison, it was a crime of non-war, and it was just the result of the capitalist's pursuit of profit.

After Andy greeted Dr. Ye who was in the data center, he left Moushika Cloud Computing Company. Because it was a new company, Andy naturally knew that the running-in period would enter the next period of time. Fortunately, he had repeatedly made it clear that the company's administration and operation are the responsibilities and authority of eO. Although Dr. Ye is a shareholder, he can only manage the company's technology and has no authority to conduct administrative and personnel and operations investigations over the work, and there is a clear division of labor, and there is no overlapping management conflict.

The flight ticket to London, England has been booked. He will go to England at 10 o'clock tonight to complete the acquisition of Tottenham Hotspurs. Before that, he came to Mockingbirds Games and called EO Michael Wright from the software app store on the other side to the conference room.

"You have all received letters from Apple that want to restart the negotiations. They want to change the terms they signed at the beginning." Andy had been prepared for Apple's greed, but he did not want to let go easily. Without enough benefits, Andy Smith would never suffer such a frustrating loss.

"Jobs' attitude was relatively firm, and he even did not hesitate to make a complete breach of contract, and then went to court to delay time. Even if Apple finally paid the breach of contract compensation, their goal of establishing a new platform and stealing our current advantages was achieved." Michael Wright said with a frown.

"The key is to choose the download platform. After all, Apple controls the hardware of the mobile phone and the iOS system. They also want to solve our trouble before launching the new model, and block or modify the system according to the situation." Blair also said with a bit ugly face.

However, the Mockingbird Games Company he represents has no competition and conflicts between Apple. He does not want to affect the expansion plan of the game company because of the conflict between Free City app app mall and Apple. However, the final choice depends on how the big boss chooses.

After pondering for a while, Andy finally decided: "Blair, the differences between the game company and Apple are not very big. It's just a problem of downloading and jumping the first choice for app store. After all, our games rely on the iOS system. At present, before the Android system was launched on the market, our game company really cannot do without Apple's support, so you can choose to make concessions in negotiations with Apple."

He looked at Michael with a gloomy face and said, "Michael, have we thought of this situation long ago? After all, it is a market of hundreds of billions of dollars. Apple itself has huge advantages. How could they let others make their own money?

Let’s talk about a mobile phone. Do you think there will be two app stores in the system menu of the factory machine at the same time? So, from the beginning, Apple and Jobs planned to breach the contract and kick the City of Freedom out. Your next negotiations should pay more attention to what they are playing to reduce the compensation for breach of contract. You should know that the valuation of a large company like Apple is nothing, but after all, it is to pay money from the outside. I don’t think they will fulfill the agreement quickly.

So, your task is to get liquidated damages without any concessions, and then I will leave you with $100 million in development publicity, using publicity to resist the official background of the official app store of Apple mobile phones. After all, we are the dominant player in the current app download market, and developers of various software have made a lot of money. Programmers who have tasted the sweetness know how to choose."

Hearing the big boss' analysis, Michael Wright could only smile helplessly and nodded, "It seems that this is the only way. Next, the mall will make a review of the most popular app to increase the number and types of apps in the mall. Since we cannot take exclusive shortcuts, then our mall will take the full, high and cheap routes to consolidate our position."

"Good idea!" Andy nodded with satisfaction, and did not perform much surprise when modifying Michael Wright's operating strategy.
