Unparalleled True Technology

In the end, Peter didn't go to the Foxconn factory to put pressure, not because Wen Ming didn't want the workers at the Foxconn factory to work crazy overtime in pursuit of the iPhone's extreme production speed, but because they didn't need to go.

Although the sales of the iPhone are only officially released in the United States for various reasons, the amazing sales on the day of its release have attracted the attention of the whole world.

Without any hardware manufacturing foundation, the first smartphone released by Apple has already received a lot of attention on the day of its conference. Because before the iphone, no one would think that the mobile phone can still be designed in this way, and it is called smooth, rejecting any software released by software manufacturers on the ios platform, and including those private products that may affect the user experience. This decision also caused a lot of controversy.

IT practitioners have criticized this, thinking it is a violation of industry rules. Ordinary consumers, however, are supportive of this. Of course, there are also many consumers who believe that this is just a gimmick created by Apple to promote the iPhone. In essence, Apple is no different from any other mobile phone manufacturer.

On the second day of the official release of the iphone, the most discussed word on the Internet in the United States is the iphone.

In addition to praise, the most popular news about the iPhone is the out-of-stock problem, because in the afternoon of the next day, Apple experience stores across the United States, as well as ATT stores, have been sold out, and the suspension of sales is suspended. Authorized, only pre-ordered signs are accepted.

The main reason for being able to persist until now is that all users who ordered from Apple's official website were notified that they would be officially shipped in three days.

This point has been told to consumers on the first day of the iPhone's official release.

Foxconn has received news that they will deploy as many production lines and assembly workers as possible for us. It is estimated that after a week, the number of iPhones they assemble every day will reach 300,000.

Peter made a daily work report to Wen Ming, which has doubled compared to the previous 150,000 units per day at the Foxconn factory.

And the price we pay is to hand over the assembly order for the next batch of 10 million iPhones to them.

Normally, after the two parties have signed the contract, no matter how popular the iPhone is, Foxconn does not need to worry. According to the assembly speed agreed in the previous contract, they can get all the benefits. But everything is for profit. Judging from the current sales and reputation of iPhones, it is absolutely impossible for 10 million iPhones to meet the needs of the global market. Therefore, Apple must increase the number of orders.

Under such circumstances, Foxconn was very smart and took the initiative to increase the production line for assembling iPhones before Apple's request. Naturally, it was able to rely on a good foundation of cooperation to obtain Apple's second batch of iPhone assembly orders.

Wen Ming nodded. Foxconn's speed increase was within his expectations. After thinking for a while, he asked, What's your opinion on our parts supplier's behavior of adding new parts orders but not paying the final payment? ?

Peter shook his head with a smile, and said, How could they have any objections? Now they are begging us to continue to be our parts supplier, and there is no time to pay the final payment as agreed.

When Wen Ming was looking for parts suppliers before, he always looked for parts suppliers from Apple in another world as much as possible, because his company is too small and has too few people, so he doesn't have so much time to compare and improve quality. test. And now, with iPhone sales like crazy, he has enough cash flow to expand his company.

With sufficient manpower, he can naturally choose the Apple parts supplier that suits him best,

Not Jobs' Apple parts supplier.

For the second batch of 10 million iPhones, the supplier should not change as much as possible, because the sales of iPhones are too fast, and we have no time to find new parts suppliers. However, while this batch of iPhones is being manufactured, I need You selected the most suitable parts supplier for me.

Hearing Wen Ming's request, Peter said confidently: Boss, don't worry, as long as I talk about it, the cost of this batch of iPhones can be reduced a lot. If I had joined the company earlier, the cost of the last batch of iPhones would have been lowered. It's going to drop a lot.

Peter is a veteran in the mobile phone industry and once held a high position, so he is much better than Wen Ming in this respect.

Wen Ming laughed and said, So, how many shares do you hope to get?

Peter fell into a daze for a moment. It's not that he hasn't thought about this problem, and he even really hopes that he can get the shares of Apple. For a company, it is very normal to give real high-level employees and old employees technical shares. In the United States, it is also the wish of many people to change from a migrant worker to a partner.

But Peter also clearly knows how valuable Apple's stock is. It is no exaggeration to say that Facebook, which is said to be rare in the IT industry in 20 years, is not as valuable as the current Apple. More than a month ago, Apple relied on Facebook to become a member of the $1 billion club.

Peter did not make much contribution to this incredible speed of progress, and he is not the real veteran of the company. The real veteran of Apple should be Sith and others, as well as the group of people who developed Plants vs. Zombies.

Boss, isn't today April Fool's Day?

Seeing the disbelief on Peter's face, Wen Ming smiled and said, Of course it's not April Fool's Day. I'm going to take part of the shares as technology shares and management shares. Of course, you have your share.

Wen Ming had planned to take out Apple's shares before and give them to technical staff and management, because this would increase the cohesion of the company's core. After all, while giving shares, many conditions will also be set, which is equivalent to tying people to one's own chariot with money. And when this person wants to get out of the car, or wants to leave the company to start a new business, or even betray the company, his rights and interests will be taken back.

But Apple was not very valuable before, and Wen Ming only gave out a bonus once, the time when he sold ins.

When you give to others, you must let others know the value of what you give, otherwise, no one will appreciate much. The most important thing is to give shares to Apple when it is not very valuable. If you give less, people will be unhappy, and if you give more, Wenming will be reluctant.

But now, Apple is already very valuable. Giving shares at this time can not only give less, but also get more thanks. Why not do it?

Peter had an excited expression for a moment. After thanking him many times, he didn't mention how much he wanted at all. This is his cleverness. When people do not have enough right to speak, try not to ask for it, but choose to accept it, because what you get essentially belongs to others, and the right to decide is also in the hands of others.

After Peter left happily, Wen Ming got a very bad news, which made him very unhappy.

I don't know if Teresa Roy found out the news just today, or he decided to tell Wen Ming after seeing the iPhone sales.

Anyway, he made a call.

Congratulations on your iPhone success!

After some politeness, Teresa Roy said, It's Nokia!

Wen Ming was stunned, he really didn't expect it to be Nokia?
