In the Apple headquarters building,
Ms. Elena, the head of Asia, is reporting the situation to CEO Cook
“This quarter, our sales in Asia still saw a small increase, especially the decline in China, which fell again by 3%！”
“Therefore, advertising expenses have to increase recently, especially in China, Japan and South Korea. If they do not increase, there may be a risk of sales decline.”
“As for our collection of installation fees and third-party payment commissions from major software companies, it did not go well, especially Shengshi Group, which has clearly rejected us! Elena said as she took out a piece of information!
After Cook flipped through it curiously, his face looked unhappy.
Today’s Apple is no longer the era of Steve Jobs, and profits and sales are declining year by year. Although outsiders It’s hard to tell, but in fact Apple’s position is being challenged.
Various newly emerging mobile phone manufacturers have made them miserable!
Apple, which was once so powerful, even had to find ways to research cheaper models so that it can seize more market share. There are so many markets, which has to be said to be a irony.
So Apple must find another way to develop more profit margins, such as enforcing installation fees and charging profits from various software companies.
If not, then Apple’s decline can be It was foreseeable!
If you want to complete this huge strategy, you have to start from Asia!
“Elena! Cook said seriously:”I hope you will talk to Shengshi Group again. This is a win-win cooperation. I think they have no reason to refuse.””
“No, you are wrong! Elena smiled bitterly and shook her head:”Shengshi Group really doesn’t care about a win-win situation. Their boss Chen Han is very stubborn. This young Chinese has never lacked traffic, and he doesn’t care about the built-in software we gave him!””
“do you know? He has just developed a new food ordering software. This software has quickly become popular all over China. Now it is downloaded in the tens of millions every day, and he has not promoted it at all!”
“In at most half a month, this will be an industry worth hundreds of billions of dollars, and it will easily blow us away. I don’t think there is any need to talk to him anymore, because he and we talked about it!”
After Elena finished speaking, she looked a little dejected!
Obviously, this arrogant woman did not think she had the capital to negotiate with the other party when facing a terrifying man like Chen Han.
“God, Elena, what do you think? Cook said dissatisfied:”You have to know that we are a mobile phone manufacturer. We have more than 150 million actual users in China. We are the makers of the rules.””
“He is just a software developer dependent on our existence. Without our mobile phones, he is nothing!”
“You must talk to him confidently. We need to expand our influence, and we also need the Chinese market. Do you understand?”
“Well? Elena smiled helplessly.
After being silent for a long time, she nodded and said,”Okay, you are right. I will personally fly to Yanjing to talk to him in the next few days. If the negotiation is really not appropriate, then I will go to Yanjing to talk to him.” Let’s talk about it later!”
“If the negotiation fails, we must take tough measures. Cook snorted coldly:”There is an old saying among Chinese people: Killing chickens can scare monkeys!””
“Recently, people from the Morgan Consortium have been looking for me, hoping that I will restrict the Chinese Internet industry, and mainly hope that I will suppress the rise of Shengshi Group. I have already agreed to them!”
“So now, just go ahead and do it. If he refuses to agree, then we will make him realize his mistake.”
“OK!”
Elena nodded in agreement!
She frowned and thought for a long time, then said:”Cook, you are ready to support the major consortium’s plan to suppress China, right?”
“That’s not surprising, is it? Cook replied with a smile:”Although we are businessmen, the interests behind us are complicated. We can never be friends with the Chinese. If they are allowed to rise, it will be a disaster for any of us.” Isn’t it?”
“Mr. Soros will attack Xiangjiang in two weeks. Before that, I hope to see Shengshi Group compromise, otherwise I don’t mind adding insult to injury at their most difficult time!”
“All right!”
Elena nodded with a wry smile, stood up and left helplessly!
She wanted to persuade Cook several times not to be an enemy of this Chinese man, but after thinking about it, she still didn’t say anything.
Because she knew this kind of thing It is inevitable!
The rise of one business empire will definitely cause damage to the other business empire. There is no possibility of peaceful coexistence between the two sides, unless one side can be proven to be stronger than the other.
In this competition in the Chinese market, no one can He is the real winner. Only when one party is completely defeated and gives in will the storm completely subside.
“May God bless you!”
Elena frowned and sighed, and the uneasiness in her heart became more and more serious.
