The industry has been surprised by the sales of Apple-l personal computers, and even IBM has expressed concern. However, as we all know, the bigger the company, the slower the response. IBM has not decided to get involved in the industry, while some small computer companies have already taken action.
The competition will get fiercer!
But Li Zetian is not afraid of competition, and he is sure that he can surpass other companies by relying on his past life memory and technology.
At this time, Li Zetian got the news that Jobs had returned from India.
In fact, Li Zetian has been paying attention to the situation of Atari, not only because Jobs is an employee there, but more importantly, Atari is also one of Apple's competitors.
At 9 o'clock in the evening, Li Zetian called Wozniak.
"Hello, Wozniak, I'm Chronos."
"Hello, Chronos, are you looking for me?"
"I want to ask you a favor!" Li Zetian said.
"Is something wrong with the Apple-l again?"
"No, I want you to help me get Steve Jobs to Apple, I want to meet him!"
"Steve Jobs? You know him?!" Wozniak wondered.
"I've heard of it, but I haven't seen it." Li Zetian said, indeed, in his previous life, he only watched the video of his press conference on the Internet, and he had never met face-to-face.
Li Zetian suddenly felt as if he had a bad taste and wanted to collect business elites or business leaders from previous lives like stamps, such as Bill Gates and Paul Allen of Microsoft, Steve Jobs of Apple With Steve Gary Wozniak, Alibaba's Jack Ma, Tencent's Ma Huateng, Baidu's Robin Li, Xiaomi's Lei Jun, Tesla's Musk, Amazon's Jeff Bezos, Google Larry Page and Sergey Brin of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook, Ellison of Oracle and many more…
Then there was a big boss meeting, and looking at the crowd, Li Zetian felt contented.
Wozniak thought for a while, then said, "Okay, I'll ask him out for you..."
"Well, then thank you very much!"
…
The next day, Wozniak and Jobs came to Apple together.
Jobs just came back from India and had a bald head cut. I heard that he was converted by an Indian monk, and he was confused.
When Jobs saw Li Zetian, he was very surprised. Although Wozniak had introduced him to Li Zetian on the way, he was still shocked when he saw the real person.
The founder of the famous Apple company is so young! ! !
"You two, please sit down!"
Li Zetian looked at Jobs and asked with a smile, "You are Steve Jobs, right? I'm Chronos Lee, the founder of Apple. In fact, I worked at Atari for a while before, and I heard about it there. Some of your deeds!"
Jobs couldn't help but smiled awkwardly. He thought that all the deeds Li Zetian heard must be bad, because he was a arrogant and eccentric guy. Most of Atari's employees hated him so much that he was assigned to a small number of people. night shift!
Li Zetian then continued: "I think there are two kinds of people in this world, one is a genius, a maverick; the other is an ordinary person. I think, Jobs, you are the first kind of person I said - a genius! Therefore, I specifically asked Wozniak to invite you to meet at Apple, and the purpose is to invite you to work at Apple!"
Li Zetian paused, looked at Jobs, and said sincerely and earnestly: "Steve Jobs, quit your job at Atari, there is a bigger stage waiting for you!!!"
During this time, the Brew Computer Club has been discussing Apple and the Apple-l personal computer. Jobs is also an active discussant in the club. When he first saw Apple-l, he believed that Apple was him. The company you desire. Unexpectedly, the founder of Apple today actually invited himself to join the company! ! !
Jobs couldn't hide his excitement, and immediately agreed: "No problem, I will go to Atari to resign now!!!"
Having said that, he immediately stood up and couldn't wait to go outside.
Li Zetian was stunned for a while, looking at the figure of Jobs, he couldn't help sighing, "I'm going, you are even more anxious than me..."
At this time, Li Zetian glanced at Wozniak and said slowly, "Wozniak, even Steve Jobs is going to join Apple, do you still hesitate?"
Wozniak was silent for a minute, Li Zetian invited him many times, full of sincerity, more times than Liu Bei visited the cottage, Wozniak said that he was not moved, that was false.
"Chronos, I decided to join Apple!!!" Wozniak said solemnly.
"Welcome to join, Wozniak!!!" Li Zetian was overjoyed when he heard the words, reached out and hugged him, then patted his back, saying: "With your joining, Apple is even more powerful!! !"
On the same day, Wozniak submitted his resignation to Hewlett-Packard, and Jobs submitted his resignation to Atari.
In order to keep them in the future, Li Zetian promised them that they would be rewarded with more options than ordinary employees in the future!
There is a saying: "There are often horses in a thousand miles, but Bole is not very often!"
Jobs never expected that as soon as he arrived at Apple, he was appreciated by the founder. Not only did he become a product manager, but he would also be rewarded with options in the future. In addition to being excited, Jobs was also very moved!
"Work hard, Jobs, don't let me down on your expectations!!!" Li Zetian patted Jobs on the shoulder.
"Don't worry, Mr.li, I will definitely lead the team to make the best work!"
"Yeah!" Li Zetian nodded, thinking that the Mac computer could be handed over to Steve Jobs for development, which would involve the development of a graphics operating system, a mouse, etc. He pursued perfectionism and was extremely picky. Jobs, who paid attention to user experience, was obviously the best. The selection of the person in charge will probably take several years. As for the second-generation personal computer Apple-ll, Wozniak and Zhang Yan are responsible for it!
The addition of Steve Jobs and Wozniak made Li Zetian feel that Apple has become stronger and stronger, and at the same time, it has also greatly increased his confidence!
hiring!
expansion!
Rise up!
Apple has kicked off a massive hiring drive!
Li Zetian spent money to rent the entire office building next to it and turned it into a new headquarters. As for the original red low house, it became Apple's "Skunk Works"-Mac Lab, where Steve Jobs led the team to develop Mac computers. ! ! !
The Skunk Works was originally the officially recognized nickname for Lockheed Martin's advanced development projects. It led a group of enterprising professional engineers with incomparable creativity to develop the nation's defense technology with enterprise-oriented management and humanized management. The most secretive and advanced weapons products are famous for their rapid and effective cost control, thus becoming a benchmark for large companies engaged in high-tech industries around the world to follow.
Under the birth of this organizational innovation model, Xerox's Polo-Alto Lab, AT&T's Bell Labs, "Manhattan Project", IBM's "Chess Project", BMW's "i Project", etc. have sprung up like mushrooms after rain. These are typical of commercial skunkworks.
Therefore, Li Zetian is ready to learn from Lockheed Martin and establish Apple's "Skunk Works" - Mac Lab, dedicated to developing Mac computers! ! !
