Chapter 135 Gambling Agreement

He muttered: "If you don't have water to drink, your throat will be inflamed, so I won't say it."

The words spoken in Chinese were all unaware of the Americans around him, only Luo Bingyun laughed out loud when he heard this.

Seeing that the people around her were a little confused, she quickly covered her mouth and forced herself to stop laughing.

Zhang Yi said to Jobs: "Old Qiao, let's talk about this first today, and I'll talk about it later if I have time."

Hearing this, Jobs, who was excited, was like a big winter when he was poured on cold water. He was so angry that his forehead was bulging with blue veins. He pinched his head tightly, but when he looked at his body, he thought of the other party's majesty in the fight that was famous all over Sam's country, so he could only stop.

Judging from his words and meaning, the beautiful and magnificent Apple system we worked hard to make, in his eyes, was like a broken warehouse, leaking everywhere!

"I'll just say this today, and I'll talk about it later when I have time!" Although I'm unwilling to admit it on the surface, I have to say rationally that the problems pointed out by Zhang Yi need to be improved.

Looking at the beautiful operating interface, Jobs suspected for the first time that the Apple system could really succeed? Instead of being like an embroidered pillow, just fancy and whistle. After all, the bugs Zhang Yi found were very easy, as if they were like the emperor's new clothes, and those who could not find were fools.

In any case, these bugs exist objectively. If you don’t see them, you can’t say that they don’t exist. And when users realize, it will affect the reputation of the Apple system. For software, especially large operating systems, customer reputation is the first vitality.

Otherwise, no matter how much money you spend and how beautiful the interface is, it will be useless.

Looking at Zhang Yi's proud look, Jobs wanted to give him an old man's face and let him know why flowers are so popular. He bury other people's products, but he is so happy that he builds his happiness on other people's pain. Who are these people!

In fact, he himself is not the case. When he is fine, he satirizes Microsoft, and the software he makes is extremely garbage and has no aesthetic view.

It turned out that he despised others at will, but now he is despised by others. He will have to pay it back sooner or later when he walks around the world, but now it is still on this young man, and he is unwilling to give up!

Looking at Zhang Yi's side, looking at Zhang Yi hungrily, Jobs sighed slightly. Compared with Zhang Yi's software opening level, they were far behind the same level as the Light of Fluorescent Light and Haoyue.

He didn't bother with them, so he picked up Zhang Yi and walked towards his office.

After sitting down, he said straight to the point: "Zhang Yi, as one of Apple's shareholders, you are obliged to contribute your own strength to Apple's products."

Hearing this, Zhang Yi laughed.

Humph! It is impossible to get bugs on the Apple system by taking a big hat. You must know that software testing is more difficult than opening, taking more and taking longer. The bugs pointed out by Zhang Yi are definitely what the Apple system is about to be launched and needs the most.

Jobs saw Zhang Yi's young and indescribable face, but his expression was like an old fried dough stick, and he was unmoved at all. He looked like he was not seen in a rabbit or an eagle.

"Tell me, what are the conditions you have to help Apple improve its operating system problems!"

These days in Sam Country, Zhang Yi has also become accustomed to Sam's straightforwardness.

If you have something, just say it directly, and if you have any requests, just talk it directly.

"I want to migrate all the software of Microhard Company into Apple's system. And the Apple computers sold in the future must be equipped with the Microhard Software Mall."

When he saw Jobs frowning, he added: "Of course, Apple can get 20% of the profits obtained by the software mall."

"To be honest, I really don't like your application software store. I believe that the built-in software in my Apple operating system is enough to meet the needs of users, and there is no need to buy software from your software store."

The tone of speaking was very confident, with a stingy look on his face.

When Zhang Yi heard Jobs' confidence in the Apple Mac system, he felt happy. He was just a rabbit, but he didn't expect that he might have the chance to kill a fat pig.

After spreading his hands, Zhang Yi looked helpless: "You are optimistic about your Apple system, I am optimistic about my software mall!"

"Or, you win, I lose; or I win, you lose! Let's just make a bet!"

Jobs nodded with interest.

"Tell me, what bets are you making!"

"In fifteen years, if my software mall does not reach a turnover of US$1.5 billion, I will pay you US$1.5 billion; if it reaches it, I will only pay you US$100 million!"

"Ah! You're not crazy! Do you know what the concept of 1.5 billion US dollars? Currently, the largest IBM company in this industry has a annual turnover of less than 1.5 billion US dollars! It's purely whimsical that your software mall wants to achieve this turnover is simply impossible!" The ridiculous expression on Jobs' face could not be concealed.

Zhang Yi shrugged his shoulders and said relaxedly: "The so-called betting is like this! What you bet is your vision of the future!"

Finally, he whispered: "It depends on whether you dare to gamble!" After that, he looked directly at Jobs with a provocative look.

"What are the prerequisites for this bet! Tell me first!"

"The prerequisite is very simple. Microhardware and Apple signed an agreement. Within 15 years, Apple will not restrict users' Apple computers from randomly carrying the Microhardware Mall for any reason. Of course, if the software mall affects the user's user experience and causes the user to uninstall it himself, this situation does not constitute Apple's breach of contract!"

"The second point is that within 15 years, Apple computers cannot appear, which is similar to the business model of the Microhard Software Mall. Otherwise, it will be deemed as Apple's breach of contract and will pay the Microhard Company a 10-fold penalty for the sales of the Software Mall that year."

Jobs' brow jumped and said indifferently: "That is to say, within 15 years, your random software mall must not be ruled out. Apple itself and other software companies are not allowed to build other software malls on the Apple system, right?"

"Yes, Mr. Jobs, your understanding is very accurate!"

"What you said is that the sales of the micro-hard software store refers only to the sales on the Apple system, or to all sales on the Microsoft indos!"

Zhang Yi smiled: "Of course, it refers only to the sales of the Apple system's software mall, and does not include any other operating systems except Apple!"

Jobs stared at Zhang Yi, blinking his gloomy eyes, and he said slowly: "You are so confident. Apple computer users really need the software provided by your software store?"

Zhang Yi was in a state of turmoil, but his expression became more relaxed: "Believe it or not, it depends on your and my eyes. It is like at the gambling table. If you believe in yourself, you can shove it and clear the chips on the gambling table. If you don't believe in yourself, just put the chips bit by bit!"

Jobs' eyes were sharp: "Okay, I'll bet with you this time, but you have to promise me that I will stay in Sam's country in the future to help Apple improve the Apple system, and also make your software mall and Apple system more perfectly combined! Of course, I will not let you do it in vain. If you are in this state today, I can convince the board of directors to give you 1% of Apple's stock every year as your reward."

Hearing this, Zhang Yi smiled in his heart. He not only hugged a handful of grass and beat a rabbit, but also hunted a big fat pig. Finally, he was forced to send a little pig. This happiness came so quickly!
Chapter completed!
