Chapter 396: A fruitful harvest, conceived the fund

The man with glasses and a haggard face smiled and introduced himself: "Steve Jobs."
　　 "Long admired the name."
　　 After the two sides shook hands, Ivanka smiled and said, "Steve, look, I said no one would not know Apple’s Steve."
　　 After that, Ivanka turned her head to the side and smiled amorously at Shen Tong.
　　 "Speaking of which, Steve and I have many of the same views on business philosophy, such as the pursuit of perfection and quality."
　　 Jobs said: "The pursuit of perfection is the basic quality that a product must have."
　　 Steve Jobs’ perfect persistence in the product, Shentong had known it in the news and movies of the last time and space.
　　 His pursuit of product perfection is sometimes even paranoid.
　　 However, it is precisely because of his uniqueness that he can create the miracle of Apple.
　　 stood out from the crowds of high-tech companies such as Microsoft, Oracle, IBM and so on.
　　Shen Tong just wanted to ask Ivanka about the purpose of introducing him to Jobs, and Jobs had already started talking.
"I believe that innovation has no limits. What is limited is only people's imagination. As a growth industry, innovation is to make products more efficient, easier to use, and easier to use for work. 10 years ago, computers were like this An industry. If it is a shrinking industry, innovation is to quickly withdraw from the original model and change itself quickly before products and services become obsolete."
　　 After talking to himself for a long time, Jobs finally mentioned Shentong.
　　 "Shin, this is why I asked Ivanka to find you."
　　Science men’s absenteeism is really a bit...
Seeing that Shentong didn’t understand, Jobs suddenly realized,
I think the innovation of computers has basically come to an end. Even the emergence of laptops is just the last struggle of computers. Soon, there will be something easier to use than computers. The product appeared, replacing the role of the computer, making people's life and work more convenient. And this product, I think it is a mobile phone."
　　 Hearing what Jobs said, Shen Tong felt a little numb on his scalp.
　　 Jobs is indeed right. After computers, the application and popularity of smart phones have developed rapidly, and the speed has almost surpassed the popularity of computers.
　　 From the appearance of smart phones to 2019 when Shentong crossed back, smart phone applications are still prosperous.
　　 However, surprisingly, Jobs said this in 2003!
　　Smart phones are only in the trial and exploration stage in this year. No one can imagine that this thing, which can only call and send text messages, can become a product that changes human life in the future.
　　 In fact, as early as 2000, a mobile phone called Tiantuo A6188 produced by Motorola already had all the elements called a smart phone.
　　 It is the world's first PDA phone with a touch screen, and it is also the first phone with Chinese handwriting recognition input.
　　 However, Motorola did not realize its powerful potential at the time, did not focus on research and development capabilities to develop it, and did not have many applications to enrich the content of this phone.
　　 When smart phones started to circulate in the market for commercial use, it was almost 2006.
　　 Apple at the time only released its first iPhone smartphone in 2007.
　　......
　　 Seeing Shen Tong's silence, Ivanka broke the silence first.
　　 "Steve, why don't you talk about why you came to Shentong? The innovation of the industry alone may make Shentong a little confused. After all, he doesn't understand technology."
　　 After hearing what Ivanka said, Jobs shook his head directly, without giving Ivanka any face, and said: "No, Ivanka, you are not right."
Seeing Ivanka’s puzzled expression, Jobs said:
Actually, I just returned to Apple. I’m not at Apple recently. Oh my god, when I returned to Apple, I found out about these stupid dumb guys. Make Apple like rubbish. This can also be seen from the stock price. The current stock price is only $7, so I have to come back."
　　 7 dollars?
　　 Shentong's eyes lit up.
　　If I remember correctly, in the last time and space, Apple's stock price reached $222, which is a full 30 times the space!
　　 It is 2003, and 2019 is only 16 years away. In other words, as long as Apple's stock price reaches $222 during this process, Shentong will be able to retreat with 30 times the assets.
　　 Shentong can’t wait to open a stock account now.
　　 The point of Evanka’s question is not on the stock price.
　　 "So, Steve, what are you looking for Shentong..."
　　 Seeing Ivanka also showed a trace of impatient eyes, Jobs finally got the point.
try{mad1(\'gad2\');}catch(ex){}　　" In the headquarter’s record, there is a record of Mr. Shentong’s purchase of Apple. At the same time, there are also suggestions for the notebook hinge. From this point alone, I think Shen has very innovative ability and potential. When I know that Shen is also very talented in basketball, I can't wait to meet Mr. Shen Tong and talk about cooperation."
　　 finally talked about the point...
　　 Ivanka and Shentong wiped their sweat at the same time.
　　 This guy is more difficult to communicate than in movies and rumors.
　　 The entire dialogue process is his own personal show and self-talking.
　　 "So, Steve, do you want Shentong to be your endorsement?" Ivanka asked.
Jobs said without concealment: "Yes, we have analyzed several candidates and found that Shentong is a very suitable candidate for our Apple. At the same time, he also has the knowledge and innovation ability of technology. I like this spokesperson very much. You said, the people in our marketing department once contacted Shaquille O'Neal of the Lakers, but the guy said that our iPod was too difficult to use, so I immediately opposed this endorsement."
　　 Shintong swallowed the words that came to his mouth again.
　　 Actually, iPod is really hard to use.
　　 It's not that the ipod product itself is difficult to use. In fact, the operation of this product is very user-friendly, and it is very simple and smooth to use. The design and functionality of the product are perfect in this era.
　　 However, he can only be used with Apple's macbook computer, which makes it "difficult to use".
　　 is precisely because of this, the current use of ipod in the market only accounts for 3%.
　　......
　　 Regarding endorsement matters, Jobs also bluntly said that it was because of Shentong's suggestion on the hinge of the notebook that he wanted to come over to talk with Shentong in person, so as to make the final decision.
　　 "Let Shen talk about his views on Apple's future development? Steve, isn't this a bit difficult for a strong man? After all, this is just an endorsement, not a job partner."
　　 Jobs' head shook like a rattle.
　　 "No, Ivanka, in my opinion, the person who speaks for Apple is my partner at work."
　　 Ivanka slowly turned his head to look at Shen Tong, with an apologetic and somewhat embarrassing smile on his face.
　　 From the look in Ivanka’s eyes, Shentong knew that the other party believed that he could not give any in-depth views and suggestions.
　　Even, Ivanka might be thinking, God, asking a muscular basketball player about the future development of technology is crazy.
　　 However, Shentong is no ordinary person.
　　He is watching how Apple has grown into a world-class company step by step.
　　 Shen Tong smiled and looked directly into Jobs's eyes, combined with the real experience of the last time and space, and talked plainly about his views on smartphones, future technology, and the development of Apple, and even made a few suggestions.
　　 While Shen Tong was talking, Ivanka and Jobs slowly changed their eyes when they looked at Shen Tong.
　　 Ivanka: Doubt -> Surprise -> Calm -> Appreciation
　　 Jobs: Calm -> Doubt -> Surprised -> Appreciation
　　 From the change in the eyes of the two, Shen Tong knew that he had conquered the two.
In fact, Shentong did not study Apple and technology too deeply in the last time and space, and the things he talked about are also very simple, but what he mentioned is after all things that are truly happening in the future and absolutely advanced. This impact brings about The impact is absolutely extremely shocking.
　　 It's like, you cross in front of Van Gogh and tell him that his portrait will be successful in the future, then Van Gogh will definitely introduce you as a confidant immediately.
　　 It is like you travel to Copernicus and tell him that he thinks heliocentric theory is absolutely correct theory, then Copernicus will definitely feel that he has found like-minded relatives.
　　 It's like you traveled to China in the 90s, and you just found a passerby and told him that the Chinese men's football team could score in the World Cup in 2002. Then these people will definitely call you a brain problem...
　　......
　　 Shentong's words are not enough to change Apple's development experience, but they are enough to impress Jobs.
　　 Because the concepts and opinions mentioned by Shentong are almost exactly the same as Jobs's layout of Apple's future development.
　　 There is no way, who told Shentong’s knowledge point to be more than ten years ahead of him, and it happened to be those years that Jobs had at Apple.
"Shen, I sincerely invite you to become a member of our Apple. I suggest that we can sign a long-term endorsement contract. I would like to invite you to become the image spokesperson for our full range of Apple products in the next ten years! As for the endorsement fee, you don’t need to worry, it is absolutely in line with your worth."
try{mad1(\'gad2\');}catch(ex){}　　 Ivanka is rare to see people who can be so appreciated by Jobs.
"Shen, Steve seems to be very sincere. Just consider his suggestion. And you currently don’t have product endorsements from technology companies. There is no risk of product exclusivity. I believe that the endorsement price given by Steve must be very high. Not cheap."
　　 Jobs was very on the road at this time and nodded quickly.
　　 But Shentong has his own ideas and is very bold.
Technology has changed life.
　　 What he wants is not just money, but can really do something.
　　......
Shentong thought for a moment and said to Jobs: "Steve, I will consider your invitation very seriously, but if I really join Apple and become your image spokesperson, I hope you will give me the endorsement fee directly. Convert it to me in the form of stocks."
　　 Jobs was taken aback, with a delighted expression on his face, and quickly said: "This proposal is completely okay!"
　　 After finishing speaking, Jobs even showed a grateful expression, holding Shen Tong's hand and said: "Mountains and seas meet friends, and all living beings are not easy to meet."
　　 In fact, Shentong’s proposal is very kind to Jobs and Apple.
　　 Apple is currently at its lowest point. Looking for an image spokesperson is also the first step that Apple has taken to reverse its image.
Although Steve Jobs went to Haikou and said that the endorsement fee is not a problem, it is definitely a huge expenditure for the company. At this time, Shentong proposes to use stocks to convert, then for Apple, it can save a lot of money, and at the same time It is equivalent to giving Jobs a favor.
　　 just took office and signed Shentong, a young star who is currently hot in the NBA, with hundreds of millions of fans around the world. This signing will definitely help improve Jobs's prestige in Apple.
　　 Shentong held Jobs's hand and said: "Where, where, since we are partners, we must look for ways to win together."
　　 Jobs who said these words nodded excitedly.
　　 "For follow-up endorsement matters, please ask your company's personnel to directly contact my agent David Falcao."
　　 "No problem, happy cooperation!"
　　Shen Tong was delighted.
　　 30 times!
　　 I am replacing a Chinese technology company, thank you Apple for this huge funding!
　　......
　　 The fashion show on that day was very exciting.
　　All kinds of in all colors and shapes, as well as all kinds of clothes and jewelry.
　　 In the warm applause, this fashion dinner party ended successfully.
　　 Shen Tongxin has met many people, but the most important one is Steve Jobs.
　　 After talking with Shen Tongchang, this guy hurriedly left the dinner party and went back to prepare to endorse the contract.
When 　　 left, Evanka deliberately found Shentong.
　　 "Shin, did you have a good time tonight?"
　　 "It's okay, it's nice to watch."
　　 Ivanka smiled "puchi", with a spring on his face, and said in a half-joking and half-serious tone: "Which one do you want? I'll help you arrange it."
　　 Shen Tong quickly shook his hand and said, "Don't ~ EbookFREE.me~ If our Avril Lavigne knows it, we can really kill it directly from Los Angeles."
　　 Ivanka said with a smile, "I will keep it secret for you."
　　 Shen Tong "hum" and said, "I won't tell you a joke, even if I have the courage, I don't have that heart."
　　 was muttering in his heart, who knows if you will be like your dad. You promised it well last night, and you regretted it the next morning.
　　 "Shen, I admire you very much. If I have the opportunity, I hope to cooperate with you to produce a brand of fashionable clothing."
　　Clothing brand?
　　 This Shentong really hasn't dabbled in it.
　　 "Evanka, thank you for your invitation and hospitality tonight. I will consider this suggestion."
　　......
　　 Returning to the residence that night, Shen Tong dialed the number of his agent David Falcao.
　　 "Hey, David, I have an urgent matter to discuss with you."
　　 There was silence at first, and then Falcao's complaint sounded.
　　 "Shin, my pro-grandfather, it's early in the morning now, can't we talk about it tomorrow?"
　　 "Steve Jobs's Apple wants me to endorse."
　　 "What? Steve? He can't handle it."
　　 "Also, I would like to ask, how to set up a technology investment fund?"
　　 "Do you want to set up a fund?"
　　 "Yes, Shen Fund specializes in investing in China's technology industry."
　　 "My God, Shin, you are either a madman or a fool, but if Steve can see it, then you must be mad."
