Rebirth: Fight For Life

   Chapter 380 Jobs sewed up his broken heart

  Steve Jobs couldn't calm down on the way from Apple's headquarters not far from San Francisco to the Marriott Hotel.

The   iphone project has been less than a year away from the expected timetable, and I did not expect to encounter such a new change.

   He has absolute confidence in the design concept of iphone, and deep optimization of software and hardware under a closed operating system can definitely bring the best experience.

   He also has absolute confidence in the system experience and functions of the iPhone, which is a unique product at present.

   But this is all based on the premise that there are no unexpected changes in the basic hardware system.

  The price of 3D flash memory is still high, the application in the field of mobile phones has not been fully recognized by the market, and there is not only one supplier, and in the architecture of smart phones, it is not the most core spare parts.

   But RAM... Heck, this thing is much more important than flash memory, and directly affects the core performance of the phone.

   But now, suddenly what is DDR4 black swan? And already have LPDDR4?

   Jobs keenly read a very likely message from this information: Perhaps, the Flint Group developed memory specifically for smartphones.

  Who will directly develop DDR and LPDDR at the same time? Only people with LPDDR as their real goal!

   That way, the rover smartphone thing is enough to get the highest attention.

   If the rover just developed a set of so-called instruction sets, and then designed chips and developed operating systems based on it, Jobs did not worry.

   sounds more like a rhetoric of playing tickets and publicity, how original is it? Both the instruction set and the chip can be authorized.

  How is the operating system experience? Which developers will contribute to the application.

  But memory cannot be faked... DDR4, which only exists in the theoretical roadmap, cannot be faked.

   So if the Chinese are not making international jokes, things will change.

   What's more, this is a smartphone, and the baseband chip is indispensable. Which one has provided the best 3G chip and the only 4G technology so far?

  Huawei Haisi, among which the Flint Group holds 40% of the shares!

  Jobs had some headaches for this matter. The purchase of a small amount of chips in the R&D stage will not attract attention. It is conceivable that there will be resistance in the procurement negotiations during mass production in the future.

   Now, is DDR4 going to repeat the story of 3D flash memory between Apple and Rover?

   But the rover's mobile phone, will it use DDR4?

  If the rover's mobile phone uses DDR4, where will Apple get DDR4?

   Last year around 3D flash, how painful is it for Apple?

   You are producing mp3s, and so am I.

   You need 3D flash, and so do I.

  You need to buy, I can produce it myself, and it is much better than what you can buy, and it is cheaper.

   Steve Jobs kicked the sandbag hard at the gym.

   Now what about DDR4? The Chinese have even come up with an infiltration lithography machine. What bargaining chip can Samsung have this time?

  What if Flint Group no longer licenses DDR4 patents this time? There is no other supplier, does iPhone compete for performance with DDR2 and DDR4?

   He really has no clue.

  If a mobile phone with far stronger hardware performance than the iPhone appears, as long as its system is not so bad, who will users choose? Open source operating system and closed iPhone Runs OSX, who will developers choose?

   But, will the rover's system be so bad?

  Jobs thought of WanderMelody, a music management software specially developed for Wanderer mp3, as well as Menghua Weibo and Smart Future under Flint Group, which are creating a new storm now. They are works with advanced concepts, advanced technology and excellent interactive experience.

   Even Facebook launched by Huaguo listed company Penguin and HaoKan launched by NetE have Flint Capital as an important shareholder behind them.

   Many foreign innovators have the advantage of local resources, but the three platforms, Menghua Weibo, Facebook and Haokan, have gained a firm foothold in Europe and the United States by virtue of constantly iterative new functions and endless operation strategies.

   For an opponent like   , even if it is the first time to set foot in the field of smartphones, will the operating system be so bad?

  Even though Jobs felt that the Rover's Rebs was definitely worse than himself, the Rover's mobile operating system supported by the Flint Group must be excellent.

   A mobile phone with an unknown CPU, the best RAM, the largest ROM, the best baseband chip, the best DAC, the best ISP, and an excellent operating system…

Oh no! According to the information provided by a friend, this guy is actually the leader of the R&D team of Huaguo's infiltration lithography machine, and he provided the design scheme of the projection objective! That rover phone shot...

   He also led the research and development of Huaguo's cutting-edge machine tools for processing precision instruments, the sensors and processes of the rover mobile phone...

   "BOSS, we're here." The driver stopped the car and looked at the rear-view mirror, only to see the boss's expression a little dazed and sluggish.

   "BOSS?" He increased his voice.

  Jobs raised his head: "Huh?"

   "We're at the ISSCC venue."

   Jobs looked out the window and suddenly felt a little frightened, as if there was a human-devouring beast inside, just for him.

   Otherwise, why is it an ipod first and then a smartphone?

  No, how did he know that Apple started its smartphone strategy in 2004?

   Anyway, this guy started out with smartphones. Apple, just headed towards the beast's territory?

   After thinking about it to the end, he felt as if he had inadvertently caught a glimpse of the whole picture.

   For this smartphone, he promoted the upgrading of the entire industrial base of China?

  No, it is leaping to the top level in the world! Is this something humans can do?

   That's just a 22 year old!

  When I was 22 years old, I just founded Apple, and I sold 50 complete machines in my first business! How excited are you? Hi too!

   What about this man?

   It took him 5 years to have assets of billions of dollars and industrial mobilization capabilities of tens of billions of dollars, leading the trend in the fields of cutting-edge manufacturing, semiconductors, integrated circuits, and the Internet.

  Analysis magazine said that in the past three years, Flint Group has only focused on the appreciation of assets, and the investment and achievements in scientific research are generally good.

  Bullshit! What was the immersion lithography machine and cutting-edge machine tool at the end of last year? What is the current generation of 3D flash memory, DDR4, and instruction sets?

   What's more, companies under the Flint Group have submitted an unknown number of patent applications around the world in the past three years. The patent application that has entered the publication period involves so many aspects that it is puzzling. There are no patents that have entered the publication period, and it is unknown how many there are.

   Jobs is now deeply skeptical, many of which are smartphone-related.

   Through the outer wall of the Marriott Hotel, he seemed to see many people barely standing in front of the giant beast to maintain a decent dignity, and their souls were already shivering on the ground.

   These people are all outside, a giant who will make people worship the ground from body to spirit.

   Jobs took a deep breath, opened the door and walked out.

   He walked towards the door of the hotel step by step, and his footsteps gradually became steady.

The   iphone strategy cannot be abandoned just like this. The team of thousands of people has worked hard for more than two years.

   Now the most important thing is information! It's information!

   Need more information on the roamer smartphone, and the attitude of Flint Group on the supply of various chips in the future.

  Jobs, who firmly stepped into the hotel door, flashed a trace of sadness in his heart.

  When will companies like Apple start worrying about whether Chinese companies are willing to supply chips?

   Or all kinds of chips?
