The head of the R & D department said he was very sad. He looked at Christopher with small money on his face. After thinking about it, he whispered, "our R & D department has found a small memory chip for TF card, which is actually very suitable to put on the mobile phone. A 16MB TF card can be bought for only $10."
"16MB! It's only $10!!" Christopher's eyes brightened, and then immediately said, "how can you tell me such a good thing now? I'll send someone to buy it right away. We'll buy as much as you want!"
"Don't worry, president. I've asked someone to send out a list to the procurement department. The procurement department has gone to purchase samples. By the way, the people they sent out seem to have started this morning. Maybe in a few days, we can get the samples of TF card and test it!" the person in charge of R & D department said with a smile.
"Very good!" Christopher nodded hard and was preparing to praise. Suddenly, he thought of a purchasing employee he met this morning who was preparing to leave. His whole body was a little stiff, and then asked "where do people in the purchasing department go to purchase?"
"Go to China!" the R & D department is responsible for humanity. "TF card is China's technology and is completely produced by China, so the people in the procurement department should go to China to purchase."
"And I heard from my colleagues in the procurement department that they also found a lot of mobile phone parts with very cheap prices and excellent quality in China. I think they should purchase them together!"
"Let's wait until the procurement comes back!" Christopher said and turned the topic aside. "Do you have any solutions for games in your R & D department?"
"I'm afraid our R & D department really can't!" the person in charge showed a helpless expression "President, we are all engaged in hardware and occasionally write the operating system of mobile phones. No one is really good at games! So I think the company's best to introduce some games from outside, which depends more on spectrum than our own research and development!"
"OK, keep working hard!" Christopher nodded and left the R & D department, which greatly relieved the person in charge. He thought he would be scolded today. Unexpectedly, the whole process was quite smooth and he hadn't been scolded yet!
"When the TF card arrives, I will use the fastest speed to make the big phone book and blacklist function, and the president will be very satisfied!" the responsible person thought in his mind. He just waited for a month, but he hasn't seen the TF card back from the purchase.
He specially went to the procurement department to ask. As a result, the person in charge of purchasing in China said that the person in charge of purchasing in China had left his post, and the procurement department sent a procurement application to the headquarters for the second time, but there was no reply from the headquarters, so they were very helpless.

When he went to work next Monday, Christopher got the news of Tim Cook's resignation.
At this time, Christopher also knew that he might have been angry with Tim Cook at that time, but he could not put down his body frame because of a little Tim Cook.
It's no big deal to resign if you resign. Just change someone to top it. Christopher also sent someone to investigate the news of TF card. After learning that it was actually a storage chip pushed by Daqian, Christopher directly rejected the purchase request sent by the procurement department.
Are you kidding? How can Motorola buy thousands of products and send money to the enemy? It's a shame!
Soon, Christopher put aside Tim Cook and TF card and began to fully deploy the war with Daqian.
Yes, Christopher described it at the internal mobilization meeting. Just listening to this word, you can smell a tragic smell.
No way, Motorola is really in a hurry!
Motorola did not expect that it and Nokia made a wedding dress for Daqian instead of hyping this tripartite joint press conference.
The reason is very simple, who let the big thousand sell early!
Because of sufficient publicity, customers are full of interest in these three mobile phones this time. In addition, the world economic situation in 1996 was quite good. Except that Fusang people began to fall into the abyss of economic collapse, people all over the world can live quite well.
The GDP of Americans is rising rapidly. Driven by the four little dragons in Asia, Southeast Asia is also booming. Even countries such as Thailand have created a growth miracle of 8.8% of GDP.
In a word, except Fusang, the world economic situation is very good. Everyone begins to have money in their pockets. It's like a mobile phone worth more than 3000 dollars.
But the problem is, one of the most basic things is that no matter how hot you fry the heat of the press conference, you have to have something to sell!
And the heat of this matter can only last for about a week. After a week, the heat will gradually decline. After a month, who will remember this matter.
Therefore, when these three mobile phones are sold first, who can quickly attract the heat of the whole audience.
It's a pity that Motorola and Nokia were left behind by Daqian because of the unavoidable big company disease and the insufficient control intensity of the company. Even if Christopher and Ollila realized this, they had no choice but to watch Daqian sell Daqian 2 mobile phones first, and the customers affected by the heat, When you can't buy the other two mobile phones, you can only see Daqian 2.
I can't bear to see the result. I can't bear to see it.
And this time, daqian2 is not just launched in the United States. Daqian2 is sold simultaneously in the United States, China, Southeast Asia and other countries and regions except Europe.
Therefore, one week after the launch of Daqian 2, when interviewed by the New York Times, the American general manager of Daqian mobile phone proudly told reporters that in just one week, Daqian 2 mobile phone has set an amazing data of global mobile phone sales of 228000 units, creating an unprecedented sales record in the mobile phone industry.
Yes, 228000 mobile phones are sold a week, which is really an unprecedented record.
You know, it was not until 1990 that the global sales of mobile phones exceeded 200000.
Now, in just one week, Daqian has sold 228000 mobile phones, which is really frightening.
