Chapter 212 don't deceive the young poor

Zhang Yunfeng and Huang Yong left apple at noon. They were very satisfied with the shock of the relevant personnel of apple just now. Zhang Yunfeng drove to a high-end restaurant near the world trade center to celebrate the big sale of the photo terminator with Huang Yong in advance.

Huang Yong's expression is very excited, because he can see from Chen Wan's expression that she is really shocked by the software. He still knows Chen Wan better. He has worked in apple for many years, and has a high vision. Ordinary software that is already very classic in other people's eyes can only get one sentence from her, which is not bad. Compared with photography terminator, Meitu For example, the naive small software, in her eyes at the beginning, just feel a little heart.

Zhang Yunfeng ordered a bottle of red wine, and Huang Yong hurriedly asked, "aren't you going to drive later?"

Zhang Yunfeng waved and said, "let's wait patiently for them to contact today. I believe that in the afternoon, at most in the evening, there will be results." Say, Zhang Yunfeng way: "let's have a meal first, finish eating to the coffee shop next door to sit for a while."

Huang Yong nodded and said with a smile, "I have just deliberated carefully. In my opinion, they will definitely launch the acquisition plan for us as soon as possible."

"Is it?" Zhang Yunfeng asked in surprise, "why? Isn't the acquisition only after the software has acquired a large number of users? "

The Future Photo terminator was acquired by apple after tens of millions of downloads in the world. It's reasonable to say that the version submitted to apple is only a primary version of 1.0. Now the photo terminator has not been tested by the market. If Apple proposes to purchase at this time, it won't agree, because in his opinion, the price It must not be high.

"That's right." "But you've overlooked a big problem, one that doesn't have much to do with the software," Huang said with a smile

"What's the problem?" Asked Zhang Yunfeng curiously.

"You see, Apple will hold the apple global Developers Conference in less than a month. It's estimated that it should be in the middle and late October, when it will launch their latest six generations of Apple phones. However, the situation of apple is very uncertain now," Huang explained

Zhang didn't pay much attention to the current market competition of smart phones, and asked in surprise, "what's the matter?"

.

"I think Apple's sense of crisis must be very serious now. The mobile phone market is their top priority. They won't be willing to be robbed of market share easily. But now, there is no rumor that apple is going to reform the system or launch weight software. It's estimated that the six generations of Apple will only improve their hardware a little Just, our photo terminator is a great opportunity for apple. If they can complete the acquisition in a short time and then push it out through the apple conference, it will greatly enhance the purchase enthusiasm of consumers. "

"Is it?" Zhang Yunfeng doesn't know the sales volume and market reaction of Apple's six generations of mobile phones. After all, there is no mention of these industry news in the super learning system. However, Huang Yong's inference makes him think about this software. At present, although everyone can see that it has a good prospect, it hasn't gone through the market operation after all, and the operation also requires a lot of human and material resources And energy and time, even if they invest a lot of money to promote, it is estimated that it will take at least two or three months to see the results, so the software itself at this time is not worth the money.

However, as Huang Yong said, Apple's mobile phone business has been greatly impacted by Android. Except Nokia, almost all manufacturers in the world use Android system to produce Android phones, almost all of which are Apple's competitors. Apple is fighting against mobile phone brands all over the world with its own strength. This kind of pressure is conceivable. What's more, now Apple is really lack of creativity in that year, and its competitiveness is gradually declining. This software, in this sensitive period of time, must be an opportunity for apple not to miss.

At this time, Huang Yong held his finger to calculate, and said: "you see, generally according to Apple's routine, first hold a conference to release new products, but it will take about a month to take the lead in selling in Western America and foreign countries, and then gradually enter other markets. So, apple has a plan to start selling from the present to the mobile phone without interfering with its own plan More than half a month to prepare, such a long time, enough for them to update Apple's six generation system and preset the photo terminator, so I think they will be eager to buy, even if the photo terminator is only a 1.0 version. "

Zhang Yunfeng nodded and thought what Huang Yong said was very reasonable. He smiled and said: "although the photo terminator is only a 1.0 version in our hands, when it comes to apple, it will be the best advertisement for the photo terminator as soon as it is announced at the developer conference. Besides, Apple has its own user system and its own user community. They can easily The integration of photography terminator into their own community, basically without additional development, so that, once the software is in Apple's hands, it is equivalent to a full-featured official version! "

"Yes, yes!" Huang Yong said excitedly, "I guess Apple's price will not be lower than instagram. After all, the photo terminator's strength is too much better than it."

Zhang Yunfeng nodded, also very pleased to say: "so it seems that the price can be sold to at least 1.5 billion."

"Well." Huang Yong said with a smile, "1.5 billion is not expensive. Instagram also sold 715 million dollars. Our software is better than it. There is no pressure to buy two or more dollars."

"You think I said 1.5 billion yuan?" Zhang Yunfeng said awkwardly? I'm talking about dollars. "

"Dollars!" Huang Yong gaped and asked, "isn't it? Do you really think that apple is a big loser? "

Zhang Yunfeng said with a smile: "this is my lowest price. Think about it, this software can benefit all the terminal machines with camera function of apple, not only the mobile phone, but also the iPad, iTouch and so on. Even if the software is slightly modified, it can be used in the computer terminal."

"Computer terminal?" Huang Yong said helplessly, "do you think you will take photos with your Apple laptop in your arms?"

"Are you stupid? Or do mobile phones do a single thought, the only thing left in my mind is mobile phones? " Zhang Yunfeng laughed and scolded and said: "don't forget that the photo terminator is not only a weapon in the early stage, but also a weapon in the later stage! Even professional photographers can use the software of photography terminator to do post-processing work, saving time and effort, and the effect is very good. "

"Right..." Huang Yong's eyes brightened and said, "as you say, we can't sell the whole photo terminator to apple. We want to split it into two parts. We only sell the mobile terminal to them. The PC terminal can develop another PC program, like Photoshop."

"That's right." Zhang Yunfeng nodded and said, "I'll talk to apple then. If they insist on the right to use all the system platforms, then they will increase the price!"

After lunch, they sat and chatted in the coffee shop. Until five o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Wan called Huang Yong's mobile phone and said, "president Huang, we have started the purchase intention. If you are interested in talking about it, we can immediately start to prepare the time and details of the negotiation."

According to the rhythm agreed with Zhang Yunfeng in advance, Huang Yong put up a shelf and said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, it's urgent. You know, I'm just an operator. The main content of my work is nothing more than publicity and marketing. How can I promise you to start the acquisition negotiation? I have to ask our boss about it and see what he thinks. "

Chen Wan well, she also knows that Huang Yong's identity is a senior worker. The real major decision must be made by the real owner of the company.

Immediately, Chen Wan said, "please contact the manager of your company as soon as possible."

Huang Yong promised to come down, then hung up the phone, excitedly said: "Mr. Zhang, you are right, apple looks really worried."

Zhang Yunfeng said with a smile: "I think it's your guess that it's completely correct. They should have connected this software with the apple conference in October. The rest is to put up the shelf first and hang their appetites.

At this time, in San Francisco, the western American country, it was just early in the morning. Liu Hongfeng and Eric were waiting for cook's arrival.

An hour ago, they called cook and claimed that they had found a significant software. Cook didn't know Liu Hongfeng. He just knew that he was a director of China state company, but Eric was a good man. In the past two years, the market in China has become bigger and bigger, which can be called Apple's largest overseas market besides its local market Cook arranged Erik to China. When Erik also made a guarantee for the software and said that he would be absolutely ecstatic after reading it, cook could not sit down.

In fact, cook, the CEO, is very unyielding. He was appointed when jobs was seriously ill. The world always unconsciously compares him with jobs. In my opinion, jobs is absolutely the top talent in the world. There are few people who can match him. Of course, I don't have that material.

After taking office, cook really wanted to make apple better, but he sadly found that when he took over, the pattern of the electronic product market had changed.

Take mobile phones for example. When jobs first launched his masterpiece, Apple's four generations of mobile phones, there was indeed a great innovation. This innovation, to some extent, seemed to come from a breakthrough in hardware. It was also the first time that jobs planted hardware such as gravity sensors and gyroscopes into mobile phones. In addition, when smart phones were just starting, apple took a lead, So the apple mobile phone was in the ascendant.

But when they took over, other mobile phone brands also realized later. First, Android was a strong competitor. Then, heavy brands began to catch up with apple in hardware, and even many brands used more powerful hardware than apple. As a result, the competition became anxious.

Apple's five generations, in the eyes of most consumers, are failed products
