Song Ya did not intend to call back immediately. Today, he prepared a salon dinner at the mansion in Palla Alto. The 3dfx department and the top executives of the companies involved in the beats project will be there.
"Your demeanor at the meeting is heartbreaking, Mr. Chairman."
On the way back to Palla Alto from San Jose, where 3dfx is located, Asaph, who was in the same car, complimented him. Ninety-nine percent was sincere. Such a young and charismatic chairman of the chip industry can still be present at the general meeting of shareholders. In the face of cross-examinations, even in the Silicon Valley, where there are clever brains, it is completely possible to slap most of your colleagues.
Those who know technology do not look as good as him, those who look good are not as attractive as him, those who are attractive are not as good as his wrists, and those who have wrists are not as good as his expressive ability, and Jobs, who has all of the above, is not as rich as his wealth...
"Yes?"
While Song Ya was busy with the beats music store during this time, he was preparing for today's general meeting of shareholders, and did a lot of homework in advance. Asaph has confirmed the results of his labor, which is very useful.
"Of course, just now..."
Yasa continued to compliment, but Song Ya turned to the muffler that drove, "Do you know where the Apple store is here?"
After years of cooperation, the muffler nodded and deviated from the route, going around to the nearest Apple store.
Today is also the day when Apple released the third-generation iPod. The rush-buying line outside the store was long. Some customers who bought it already took the small and beautiful third-generation iPod in their hands and began to enjoy music with headphones. , And some hold the product box to their face, use the specialty store as the background, and ask a friend to help take pictures.
Song Ya watched this scene intently, with a drag voice expressing negative emotions in his voice.
Although Apple's itunes music store does not support windows and users are scarce, but Apple has its own store, where users can seek help from the store staff to download the genuine songs on itunes to their iPod...
This is not necessarily the most correct method. Even if the beats music store supports windows first, it will be easier to get started than itunes. However, for ordinary American users in the US, the more foolish the use of electronic products, the better, there is nothing to do with what operating system the music store supports. , Downloading songs with a computer is itself a hassle! It's better to go to the physical store and let the clerk help save worry and effort!
Beats, which does not have an independent store, has an absolute disadvantage in this regard. Although Wal-Mart, Best Buy and other chain stores have set up a separate display space for bests, it is completely necessary for those supermarket staff to reach the same level of service quality as Apple stores. Think too much...
Song Ya was observing his competitors, and Asaph, who closed his mouth and didn't bother him anymore, was observing him.
Asaph remembered the wonderful exercise of his own board of directors today. He had been deliberately releasing to the outside world to take this opportunity to get rid of the illusion of the second largest individual shareholder director seat. Then, taking advantage of the second largest individual shareholder panic, he again Before the general meeting of shareholders, he showed his trump card to the other party who was desperately defending himself, threatening and enticing him to let the second largest individual shareholder cooperate with him to get rid of the director belonging to id.
The loose alliance of Microsoft, ea, and id did not realize the danger before. They were all watching the jokes of the second largest individual shareholder, and ignored the other party’s request for help. Waiting for the second largest individual shareholder to desperately seek help from the owner’s seat. , ID’s director representative finally realized that his true goal was actually himself. At this time, he wanted to look back and win enough support?
It's a pity, it's too late.
As soon as I recalled the frustrated expression of id's director representative today and id founder Carmack's yelling at him on the phone, Asaph wanted to laugh.
"Let's go."
Song Ya didn't know Yasa's heart activities, and the more crowded the Apple store, the more upset he was.
The group returned to Pallaotu. At first glance, Asa was caught by the long-legged supermodel who was wiping his hair with a bath towel from the swimming pool. The female friend of Dong Zuo’s family has changed again. He also knows this, Adriana. Lima, the graphic spokesperson of the beats player, posters are often seen everywhere in the United States.
"Hey."
Lima saw the man come back and trot over immediately, wearing only a three-point bikini, his perfect, hot body was still wet.
"Well."
Song Ya, who was wrapped around her neck, embraced her with one hand without hesitation, and generously enjoyed the passionate French long kiss.
Asaph turned a blind eye and walked straight into the mansion without any surprises.
‘It just needs to be like this...’
The familiar faces of beats such as Jeff Hawkins and Donna Dubinsky are already in the hall. With the buttons on the white third-generation ipod, when the backlight of the screen lights up, the audience immediately cheered with excitement.
‘So...’ Jobs turned his finger in the circular area below, and the third-generation iPod function menu was switched accordingly.
"Touching?" Song Ya had left Lima outside and walked behind everyone.
"Yes, Apple has eliminated mechanical buttons on this generation of iPods. This is not a big deal."
Jeff Hawkins curled his lips to express his disdain. He hadn't known how many years he had been playing these technologies. The treo270 phone in Song Ya's pocket even used the touch screen.
But Jobs has the ability to create a magical display effect at the press conference, just like an e-magazine editor's complaint: "When Jobs said that imac only costs $18, I was so excited, I applauded with everyone. , Blew the whistle, but when I returned home to calm down, I realized that the mainstream desktop computer with similar performance at home cost only 900 dollars, so why did I have the idea of having to buy another imac? ’
Think of the pocket because Jeff Hawkins thinks that the touch screen is easy to stain and wear based on the thinking of the engineer, so he added a transparent flip to the user in an extra "intimate", which caused the treo270 whose appearance was seriously dragged down. Song Ya looked at the TV again. The beautiful third-generation iPod in here has some fluctuations in mood.
How to make good consumer electronics products like this! He thought so.
‘It supports up to 20g hard drives...’ Jobs again began to preach that iPod occupies an absolute leading advantage in terms of capacity.
"Oh no!"
Jeff Hawkins and others lamented in unison. It’s still an old problem. U.S. users don’t like complicated operations such as troublesome deletion and changing songs. Beats’ first-generation mp3 player has been sold for so long, and everyone is aware of this. One point, but the second generation of beats to be released at the end of the year only supports 10g hard drives, which can no longer be changed.
Jobs then showed off the non-angular fuselage of the third-generation iPod. The smooth curves of the four corners spoke a lot of things. The audience then began to marvel at the artistic fuselage design.
The camera cut right into the audience. Song Ya actually saw the 3dfx trio sitting in the crowd applauding cheerfully. He frowned and rubbed his brows with his hands.
‘Sitting over there are our auditors... Mr. and Mr.... our secretary... will make on-the-spot records,... Madam, was selected as the voting monitor of this general meeting of shareholders...’
He didn't know that at the same time in Cupertino, Jobs also watched the 3dfx shareholder meeting video he had brought to the Apple headquarters, starting from the beginning.
