844. Chapter 844 Scene 844 This Is a Threat
"Okay, everyone has worked hard during this period. Are there any projects that you can propose? According to the system, we can approve two new project development plans this quarter." Jerry York said and looked in Cook's direction:
"You can put it forward boldly and let Ms. Kelly Ya'an listen and let them decide."
Before anyone else could speak, Cook, who was in sales, handed over a document and said loudly: "Next quarter, our company's focus should be on the 17-inch screen MacBook-Pro laptop and the new iPad series.
, take these two products as our development focus.”
When Cook said this, except for Jobs, Bruce Lee, Jonathan, and everyone in the design department all changed their expressions. Forget about MacBook-Pro laptops, the iPad series was a key project developed and designed by Jobs and Bruce Lee. Cook proposed
This is obviously an attempt to grab ready-made credit.
"This is unfair! Ipad is a project of our Pirates Design and Development Department, not yours, Cook." Jonathan stood up angrily and shouted, this time Cook has really gone too far!! The designer is absolutely
Don't allow others to take away his works!
"Please sit down first! Mr. Jonathan." Jerry York looked at him coldly and said: "What do you mean by the projects of your design and development department? All projects belong to the company, not to the individuals of your pirate design department."
As soon as he said this, many people on the board of directors nodded. Jonathan was just a simple designer. How could he understand the internal struggles of the company? Li Xiaole didn't even try to pull him back. The simple-minded chief designer rushed forward with a look on his face.
He argued of course: "All the hardware and software of the iPad were designed by Steve and Lee 2 years ago. How can you just take them away!? This is unfair!?"
"Yes, they designed it." Jerry York's voice also rose a lot, and he glanced in the direction of Bruce Lee and Jobs with a sullen face, and sarcastically said: "But one of them is busy filming TV, movies, and a few
They don’t go back to the company every month, and another one is either in the hospital for treatment or on vacation with his family. He doesn’t even work 100 days a year. If you say that this project belongs to them, is it true for those of us who work hard every day?
Is it unfair to my colleagues who work 10 hours?”
With Jerry York's confident voice, all the department heads of Apple present nodded their heads. These words spoke to their hearts. Compared with Jobs and Li Xiaole, they are the ones who have truly contributed more to the company's struggle.
People...
Ever since Jobs and Li Xiaole got together and watched that "Life Remote Control", his personality has changed drastically. Although he is not as harsh as before, he is also less enthusiastic about work. He spends most of his time every year with his family and friends.
Although it is understandable to go to the hospital for treatment, he is still serving as the CEO of Apple, which makes everyone have some thoughts.
"Also." Jerry York continued to stare at Li Xiaole relentlessly: "In order to produce their Olympic opening ceremony, our Director Li transferred more than 100 employees from the technical department for several months and replaced our best
He took away the research and development products just for his personal directing work.
This kind of behavior essentially exceeds his responsibilities as the design director. As the leader of the company, Steve not only failed to stop him in time, but also condoned his behavior many times. I propose that Steve be removed.
Steve Jobs' position as CEO was changed to Tim Cook."
There was an uproar at the scene. Jonathan did not expect that his impulse would become the trigger for his opponents to attack Jobs and Bruce Lee. He blushed and pointed at Jerry York and said: "You bastard, how could you..." said
Then he rushed forward angrily, trying to find Jerry.
York's theory, but unexpectedly Jerry York winked, and the sturdy Russian Sodlov, the head of the security department next to him, couldn't help but rushed up and pushed Jonathan to the ground, twisting him from behind.
Jonathan groaned with pain on his face.
Jobs was stunned. He didn't expect that things would develop like this. It seemed that Jerry York really wanted to oust him this time. Just when the Apple leader, who was famous for his fiery temper, was about to have a fit.
, I saw a figure rushing towards me
Go, lift up his foot and kick him. Sodlov, the head of the security department, who looked like a Russian white bear, was kicked 2 meters away. He hit the table leg with a muffled "Boom!", and everyone was stunned and turned around.
I turned my head and saw clearly that the person who rushed out was Li Xiaole.
Under the dull gaze of everyone, Li Xiaole pulled up Jonathan and looked coldly at Jerry York's fat face and said: "Is it necessary to treat the company's chief designer like this? If he hurts a finger, what will happen to you next?"
The quarterly financial statements will drop by a few percentage points." Then he looked back at Sodlov, who was getting up with an angry face, and said coldly: "What kind of security director would treat a helpless chief designer?
The teacher uses force."
"I'm here to protect Director York, you Chinese bastard!" Sodlov touched the blood stains on his bruised face and cursed angrily. He seemed to want to rush over. At this time, he saw Cheng Long swaying.
He walked over, stood in front of him and said expressionlessly: "What did you just say about China?" Soderov was obviously stunned when he saw the Kung Fu superstar Cheng Long, and was too frightened to say anything.
"Someone, come here, treat our chief designer's wound." Li Xiaole waved, and a staff member came up and helped Jonathan down. Li Xiaole then turned to look at Jerry York and said coldly:
"Don't you appreciate what Steve did to save your company from bankruptcy?"
"I act in accordance with the company's system." Jerry York said loudly without giving up.
"What system? What mistake did he make?" Li Xiaole looked at her like a stupid pig: "Do you need me to remind you of this idiot? It was him, the patient CEO, and me, the idle director, who designed the Ipod and Iphone
These two products have allowed your company to grow to its current scale."
This is not the first time that the directors of this company have tried to sideline Steve Jobs. These idiots who want to get a share of their vested interests have been neglecting business all day long. It seems that the original saying in history was that "Jobs resigned due to illness and proposed that Cook take over."
I was also forced by the people on the board of directors.
"I am doing this for the overall benefit of the company!" Jerry York said matter-of-factly.
"John Scully also used this reason to drive Steve out of the company in 1985. Has anyone told you what happened to him?" Li Xiaole sneered.
Security director Sodlov couldn't bear it any longer and stepped forward to warn Li Xiaole: "No one can threaten board members at the board meeting." He looked like he wanted to beat someone in a menacing manner.
"Director Sodlov, I am not threatening Director Jerry, I am just telling him the truth." Li Xiaole said calmly and said to Cheng Long next to him: "Brother, if this Russian guy interrupts me next time, you will
Break his legs."
Sodlov instinctively glanced at the smiling Cheng Long, turned pale with fright and took a step back. After all, the Chinese kung fu superstar in the movie gave people too much of a powerful impression...
"This is the threat, do you understand?" Li Xiaole looked coldly at Sodlov, whose face was as white as paper. Everyone at the scene opened their mouths slightly. They didn't expect that this design director who rarely traveled on the road would be such a strong-armed person.
Character, this is simply more powerful than scolding employee Steve Jobs in person.
"Okay, don't be nervous, everyone, please sit down." Kelly Ya'an, the chairman of the board of directors, who had been watching all this silently, suddenly stood up and walked over gently, patting Jerry York.
She asked him to sit down on his shoulder. As this gentle and elegant lady came forward, the tense atmosphere immediately relaxed.
The blond-haired Kelly Ya'an seemed to have the temperament of a medieval European aristocrat in her movements. She walked over and took Li Xiaole's hand with a smile, took him back to his seat and asked with a smile:
"Director Li, although your and Steve's design has made a huge contribution to our company, I believe you will see the efforts of our colleagues in other departments. After all, design and creativity are only a part of the product. On this basis,
All the rest of us have made a huge contribution to perfecting a product, whether it's an iPod or an iPhone, do you think I'm right?"
"Yes, Ms. Ya'an." Li Xiaole also returned to his usual humble demeanor, smiled and nodded.
"So, I think Mr. Cook's department hopes to focus on releasing MacBook-Pro laptops and iPad series next quarter. I don't think it is an excessive request. Do you agree with me?" Kelly Yaan pressed with a smile.
Holding his shoulders.
"Completely agree, ma'am." Li Xiaole looked at the leading figure on the board of directors, knowing in his heart that the other person wanted to calm the matter.
"And I heard that Director Li is also developing a new product project recently. If you don't mind, can you share it with us first?" Kelly Ya'an seemed to be talking to Li Xiaole.
, but she was looking at the other people present, and everyone was in an uproar. They were all looking at me, and I were looking at you, and they were all asking, "What new product has Li Xiaole developed?"
Jerry York was obviously stunned. What's going on? Hasn't he already persuaded the board of directors to take away Jobs and Bruce Lee's flagship series of iPads? How come they are still developing any new products? Could it be that Bruce Lee's sudden appearance this time is not just...
Is it to help Jobs consolidate his position, but to develop a new product?
The most surprised person at the scene was actually Li Xiaole himself. You must know that the development of Ibox has only been carried out within Apple for a week, and it is strictly confidential within Jonathan's team. Kelly Ya'an, the chairman of the board of directors, is actually aware of their movements.
It's really amazing... It seems that Lei Ting is right. Women who can hold high positions are not simple roles...
Li Xiaole also took a deep breath, knowing that it was time to watch his own performance. He stood up and announced with a smile: "Well, okay, in that case, now I will introduce Steve and I to everyone, and prepare for the launch of the plan next quarter.
Chapter completed!
