Chapter 1562 temptation
Gang Leader Qiao is traveling now and is always accompanied by a doctor - a Chinese doctor of traditional Chinese medicine with yellow skin and black eyes.
Traditional Chinese medicine doctors are rotated, and these traditional Chinese medicine doctors can be seen following Gang Leader Qiao on many occasions. Many newspapers and magazines in Europe and the United States have even reported on the reason for this.
Everyone knows about the condition of Gang Leader Qiao. He was originally losing weight, but over the past year or so, his body has obviously improved, and his mental state has also continued to improve, but he
He didn't receive any surgical treatment, which makes people feel very strange.
It was someone close to Gang Leader Qiao who revealed the news. It turned out that Gang Leader Qiao’s friend Mr. Xiao Qi found him two doctors of traditional Chinese medicine. One was responsible for preparing decoctions and the other was responsible for acupuncture. After more than half a year of treatment, he finally recovered.
Slowly his physical condition improved.
"Somewhat strangely, China's mysterious ancient medicine actually promotes the concept of 'survival with disease', which puts people and germs in a delicate balance... I have never heard of such a treatment concept.
I wouldn't believe it if I heard it before, but from Gang Leader Qiao's example, it seems to make sense..."
There are a lot of reports like this, and it has also caused a craze for traditional Chinese medicine in Europe and the United States. It has made the leaders of the relevant departments in the country very happy. They asked the national treasure doctors to care for Gang Leader Qiao regardless of the cost. Finally, he got what he deserved.
The return.
Because of this, the number of Chinese doctors around Gang Leader Qiao has increased to four. Gang Leader Qiao is open to all comers, because not only him, but his family members also enjoy this kind of super high medical treatment. In comparison,
What he paid was only an insignificant amount of money, which was a great deal.
He naturally understood that these Chinese doctors could not be hired with money, but most of what he remembered was Xiao Qi's contribution. But he turned a blind eye to the leaders in the country who were unsung heroes.
At the request of the accompanying Chinese medicine practitioner, Gang Leader Qiao had a good sleep and received acupuncture and massage before appearing at the noon lunch reception feeling refreshed.
Wen Anping appeared at the banquet in person. In fact, Gang Leader Qiao didn't want to have much contact with the officials of China. However, the rebellious old boy was not a brainless old boy. He still had the proper etiquette. The luncheon was held in a happy, peaceful and friendly atmosphere.
It ended successfully in a good atmosphere, which actually made Xiao Qi breathe a sigh of relief.
His group of global senior vice presidents were very open-minded and tried the authentic Sichuan cuisine, which made them hooked. It is rare for them to have such an opportunity to go out together on weekdays, especially since they have less time to go to China.
, so I am full of curiosity and affection for this place.
However, Gang Leader Qiao did not come here for sightseeing after all. While drinking coffee after dinner, he and Xiao Qi sat on the terrace next to the hotel, talking about things while looking at the busiest streets in Chengdu in the distance.
"Are all cities in China now have such high-rise buildings?" Gang Leader Qiao asked.
"More or less, they think bigger is better, and higher is better." Xiao Qi shrugged. "If I had to choose, I would prefer the original ecological villages in Europe."
"Those who have not experienced prosperity don't know the benefits of tranquility and plainness." Gang Leader Qiao's mouth was also very poisonous. Fortunately, he was not very interested in these sarcasms, and instead said: "I have recently started to acquire Apple stocks.
Do you have any good suggestions for the steps?”
"The European and American stock markets will definitely fall sharply. If you want to make an acquisition, you need to find a good time." Xiao Qi nodded. "If my expectations are good, the end of next year will be the best time."
"I can't wait that long. Now Apple's stock is already declining." Gang Leader Qiao drank coffee and said slowly: "Perhaps by the end of next year, you will lend me another sum of money and let me buy more.
?”
Gang Leader Qiao bought Apple's stock not to make money, but to increase his position in Apple, kick out those old men, completely monopolize power, and turn Apple into his own company again.
Therefore, he doesn't care much whether the shares make money or not, but it would be good to take advantage of the low stock price to acquire more stocks.
"It doesn't matter, what's the relationship between the two of us? Stephen, just tell me when you want money!" Xiao Qi said with assurance.
Gang Leader Qiao looked at the young man warily, "What other evil ideas do you have?"
"For the sake of being a good friend, don't think of me as a businessman like you." Xiao Qi spread his hands helplessly, "Then, you ask me again? I promise to answer, 'I'm sorry.
, I won’t borrow a penny.”
"Haha!" Gang Leader Qiao grinned, "When doing business with you, I have to be very alert, otherwise I will be easily fooled by you. For example, I regret the appstore thing now. If I could have made up my mind, I would
If you want to build an app store, then why should I worry about the shares in your hands?"
The App Store was originally a weapon used by Gang Leader Qiao in his previous life to fight against his enemies, but he was resistant from the beginning, so it was not until 2008 that the app store was finally launched, and it has been out of control ever since.
Things are different now. Not only did Xiao Qi dominate the app store so long in advance, he also continued to use high profit margins and good management to make the app store grow and develop, especially the "exclusive agreement".
The sharp weapon that directly defeated Gang Leader Qiao forced him to join the app store.
At that time, he did not expect that the iPhone would sell so well. More than 40 million units were sold in half a year, and the supply was still in short supply. If it was available, 100 million units would be no problem.
If he had known it earlier, Gang Leader Qiao would have set up his own app store even if he tried to sell it, and then attracted developers to come over, resulting in a struggle for hegemony between the two major app stores, Fairy Company and Apple.
But now, the App Store has boosted the sales of iPhones, and the sales of iPhones have in turn promoted the development of App Stores. The two complement each other and are simply inseparable.
Therefore, Gang Leader Qiao felt that he had boarded Xiao Qi's pirate ship and could only continue to cooperate with Xiao Qi.
"Don't say that, Stephen, we Chinese have a saying, 'Unity is strength.'" Xiao Qi said cheekily: "Look, I have sold almost 90 million Dreampads, and the sales volume of Dreamstars is also
It will be great. Together with Samsung, the three of us can monopolize the entire mid-to-high-end market. How great would this relative cartel monopoly be?"
He picked up the Dreamstars that Xiao Qi handed him just now. For a stubborn and extreme person like Gang Leader Qiao, he felt that Dreamstars was very good, especially its fingerprint unlocking, beauty photography, large screen, etc. It was indeed an Apple iPhone.
positioning market segments outside.
"This mobile phone of yours should be able to reach half of the sales of the iPhone, which is still barely good." Gang Leader Qiao said harshly, and then focused his firepower on Samsung, "But what is Samsung's S1? It is completely for smart electronics.
Insulting! I think we can drive it out and achieve a cartel monopoly just by relying on the strength of our two families!"
Xiao Qi said calmly, "President Li will also come to Rongcheng tonight. I think you can argue in person."
"What? He's coming too? Did you tell him?" Gang Leader Qiao's expression suddenly changed, not because he was speaking ill of Li Jianxi behind his back, but because he realized the purpose of Li Jianxi's coming here.
"How could it be me?" Xiao Qi shrugged, "In fact, the day after your reply, he sent an official letter and said he would come over tonight."
Gang Leader Qiao's face was filled with uncertainty. He understood what Xiao Qi meant. The fault was revealed on Apple's side. Li Jianxi obviously had a commercial spy.
But at this time, he could no longer care about this. He frowned and said coldly: "Does Li Jianxi also want to get a share of this share transfer? Why does he have such naive ideas?"
Xiao Qi shook his head, "I don't know either, but maybe President Li thinks there is something that can impress us. We might as well discuss it with him."
Gang Leader Qiao sneered in his heart, thinking that this little slick guy really wanted to play both sides and get benefits everywhere.
As soon as he decided to come to China for negotiations, Gang Leader Qiao knew that it would not be easy to obtain shares in the app store. Now it seems that Xiao Qi is indeed waiting for a price.
Of course, Gang Leader Qiao cannot say that Xiao Qi is wrong, because business behavior has nothing to do with personal feelings. Even if Xiao Qi and Gang Leader Qiao are good friends, it does not affect their pursuit of a little benefit.
The fight is endless.
Gang Leader Qiao has always felt that Xiao Qi is still too young. If he owned the app store, no matter who wanted to buy it, it would be impossible. This is a firm principle that cannot be compromised.
Xiao Qi is not a fool, but after he knew how promising the app store was, he also attracted Apple and Samsung to enter the market. This thought, Gang Leader Qiao couldn't figure it out after thinking about it for a long time. The only possibility is that Xiao Qi is a Chinese
As Chinese people, if we don’t win a few allies, it will be difficult for us to develop in this Western-dominated world atmosphere.
But is it really that simple? Why Apple and Samsung, not Nokia and Motorola?
Gang Leader Qiao felt that perhaps this negotiation was an opportunity to better understand Xiao Qi's thoughts. Only by understanding more about what Xiao Qi thinks can we gain the upper hand in future cooperation and confrontations.
Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you fight a hundred battles without danger.
This old Chinese saying is the most suitable for him to use against Xiao Qi. (To be continued...)
