Wall Street Legend

The price of messing with the Hilton sisters is high.

Ye Dongqing was in the corridor of Apple's R\u0026D laboratory when he suddenly received a call from a publicist in the secretary's office, saying that Paris Hilton had released a public message, which was a photo of her and Ye Dongqing while drinking. , and it seemed to be very intimate, all attached to him.

It is expected to attract a lot of attention. People always like this kind of love history gossip between rich girls and rich men.

After hearing the news, he rolled his eyes. He didn't know whether he was mocking the woman who wanted to be famous like crazy, or whether he was mocking himself because he couldn't control his lower body.

It's like using each other to get what each other wants. Anyway, Ye Dongqing was not prepared to have too much contact with the troublesome sisters from the beginning. He told him not to respond too much and only said that they would drink together after they happened to meet. Had a drink.

As for Paris Hilton, she is a scheming woman with high emotional intelligence. If she had not planned to have a bad relationship with Ye Dongqing, she probably would not have used this matter to over-hype the situation. A small taste of it would be an acceptable outcome for both parties.

There were already so many gossips, and he had long become a playboy in the eyes of others. Ye Dongqing was not affected in any way and walked directly into the testing department code-named Three Zeros.

Unexpectedly, I found that an old acquaintance was there. He smiled and said hello: Mr. Jobs, I haven't seen you for a long time. Are you feeling well?

I have almost recovered. The doctor told me that I am getting better. When did you come to Silicon Valley?

Steve Jobs passed away again from the critical point of life and death. The operation went very smoothly and the postoperative recovery was also good. He spent more than two million US dollars and donated one million US dollars to a certain medical institution. However, As long as he recovers, it's all worth it, and it's just a small amount of money for him.

I just arrived today. Last time I heard that Tim said that a first-generation engineering prototype of an epoch-making new product has been developed. I want to see it with my own eyes.

Here it is, just take a look at it. The screen and wireless network receiving parts are not up to standard and we cannot be satisfied with it, but it is already a product that can be put on the market. At least it is much better than the small screen of the current iPod. You can use it It can accommodate an entire movie and thousands of e-books.”

Jobs picked up a small black box and handed it to Ye Dongqing, with a bit of joy in his tone.

Over such a long period of time, thousands of people participated and spent over a billion dollars. While tinkering with a new generation of MacBook notebooks and iMac all-in-one machines, they also made the iPod more advanced.

Now this iTouch is different. It can be said that it is a cross-generation product.

Like a computer, it is equipped with a specially developed operating system, and can load programs to use software such as Facebook through a wireless network. Through such a small thing, it can be directly connected to the Internet and can be used as long as there is a wireless network nearby. At the end of 2004, It is the latest high technology!

The appearance is a bit ugly, but it’s an engineering prototype, so it’s acceptable.

Ye Dongqing almost cried when she tried to use it skillfully. She slid her finger left and right on the screen to unlock and click to enter the playback program. This experience has not been tried in more than two years.

He didn't think it was strange when he owned it, but the sudden disappearance of this mobile smart product from his life took him several months to accept the reality.

Apple's promotional advertisement was playing on the screen, and many R\u0026D personnel gathered around him. Jobs asked him: I want to know how you feel about using it. I changed the operation method to a new one, using your fingers to operate on the screen. This was your original proposal. Do you feel uncomfortable with it?

I have been trying it for several days and now I feel used to it. I see that you can use it smoothly. We are trying to conduct user testing and we can improve it if there are any inconveniences.

It's very good. If it stays like this without any lag or crash, then you can continue to improve it for a period of time and then start selling it to the outside world. I think you should think about large-scale production, and you should also think about giving it to customers next month. These R\u0026D personnel will be given more bonuses, and this product will be the beginning of a new era... a legend!

After Ye Dongqing finished speaking, he added: Of course, there are still many shortcomings. For example, it cannot make calls anytime and anywhere like a mobile phone, nor can it take photos like a Nokia mobile phone, but it is enough to satisfy me. After it is launched, customers will They will go crazy for it!”

The surrounding R\u0026D staff clapped their hands and laughed. I don’t know who led them in shouting “Bonus! Bonus!”. Jobs’ haggard face also beamed with joy. He had launched the iPod and experienced the iPod from its trough to the present day. Since the initial success of Macbook notebooks and iMac all-in-one computers, his confidence has slowly returned, even more confident than in the early 1980s.

It was rare for him to be so happy. He waved his hand to signal the employees to stop, then wiped his glasses and said: Since the major shareholders don't mind, maybe we can give one to three months more salary as a reward to those who have contributed to the project, and Arrange for a salary increase next year.

They had been squeezed too hard during this period, and Jobs didn't mind following Ye Dongqing's wishes, making the employees happy, and then...continuing to squeeze them even harder until he developed a perfect product.

Although the product named itouch is not bad, it is still far from perfect. It is more like an advanced MP4 player that has some computer functions and is more practical. It can be regarded as a step between mobile smartphones. Transition semi-finished product.

The real MP4 player was born in 2002.

That year, French manufacturer Archos released the world's first hard drive MP4 player.

This was a milestone. It was not only equipped with internal video decoding equipment, but also had a color high-resolution screen that seemed to be a large screen at the time. It also used the hard drive as the storage medium of the machine, greatly expanding the potential of MP4. iTouch combined These and better.

Ye Dongqing did not see the app-store software mall on the program. After asking, he learned that all the development work had not been completed. It was estimated that it would take a month or two to load it in.

I previously asked a Facebook development team to cooperate, and the Facebook mobile program was available. The machine was connected to the mobile network. After opening the program, I registered a new account and successfully found my own account. After adding a follower, I could still see my previous Posted news, I also successfully saw the one recently posted by Paris Hilton.

In any case, it is indeed much more advanced than the previous product, and there are many areas that need improvement, but in the context of this era, it is already pretty good...
