When Andy Rubin hears Larry Page to introduce oneself with Li Mu meets, Andy Rubin stunned the long time, considering Larry Page of instinct with oneself was joking, inquired the confirmation time to Larry Page repeatedly, this believes. 当安迪・鲁宾听到拉里・佩奇要介绍自己跟李牧见面的时候,安迪・鲁宾错愕了半晌,本能的认为拉里・佩奇是在跟自己开玩笑,反复向拉里・佩奇询问确认时候,这才相信。 Afterward, Andy Rubin hastily determined that with Larry Page time, after one hour, he will come Muye Science and Technology to meet with Li Mu on time. 随后,安迪・鲁宾急忙跟拉里・佩奇确定好了时间,一个小时后,他将准时来牧野科技李牧会面。 Made the telephone call, Andy Rubin's excited being at a loss. 挂了电话,安迪・鲁宾激动的无所适从。 In Andy Rubin to the cognition of Silicon Valley big shot, Larry Page is very top big, as for Bill Gates this, basically already the god level character who can only respect, but young people Li Mu from China, is in Andy Rubin eyes non- human general existence. 在安迪・鲁宾对硅谷大佬的认知中,拉里・佩奇就已经是非常顶尖的大咖了,至于比尔・盖茨这样的,基本上已经是只能敬仰的神级人物,而来自华夏的年轻人李牧,则是安迪・鲁宾眼里非人类一般的存在。 Looks over the entire internet industry, can start from scratch to Li Mu this completely, and in a short time creates so the person of great undertaking, cannot discover second besides Li Mu again. 纵观整个互联网行业,能向李牧这样完全白手起家,并且短时间内创造如此大业的人,除了李牧之外再也找不出第二个。 Silicon Valley has trillion rich and powerful people of many starting from scratch, but starts from scratch can also worth several hundred hundred million USD, does not have, Bill Gates? He does not start from scratch, the Silicon Valley family background can compare favorably with Bill Gates also really few. 硅谷有很多白手起家的亿万富豪,但白手起家还能身价数百亿美元的,一个都没有,比尔・盖茨?他才不是白手起家,硅谷出身能比得上比尔・盖茨的还真没几个。 Because of this, Andy Rubin will think that is incredible, according to normal condition, oneself, even if arrives at Muye Science and Technology this company to seek employment, does not have the opportunity to see Li Mu's, only if very high management position, otherwise oneself cannot see the Muye Science and Technology vices-president. 正因为如此,安迪・鲁宾才会觉得不可置信,按照正常情况,自己就算是到牧野科技这种公司求职,也是没有机会见到李牧的,除非是非常高的管理岗位,否则自己连牧野科技的副总裁都见不到。 The company is bigger, the internal rank is also clearer, this to highlight the privilege of management actually not, but is the way of time-saving the management has to follow, recruitment interview, the cooperation discussed that the enterprise must follow the explicit gradation logic, if otherwise all interviews and discussions delivered to front of CEO directly, that CEO feared that wanted tired half dead. 公司越大,内部等级也就越明确,这倒不是为了凸显管理层的特权,而是管理层不得不遵循的节省时间的方式,无论是招聘面试,还是合作会谈,企业内部一定要遵循明确的分级逻辑,否则如果所有面试、会谈都直接送到ceo面前,那ceo怕是要累个半死。 Company like Muye Science and Technology, only if the talent of interview vice-president level, or the big project division person in charge important post, can need Li Mu to confirm like this personally beside, the time that the posts of other ranks, Li Mu even understands radically does not have, because upper person in charge of that post will be responsible for this person as well as this post, so long as will look at the result that person in charge will feed back then. 牧野科技这样的公司,除非是面试副总裁级的人才,亦或者大事业部负责人这样的重要岗位,会需要李牧亲自确认之外,其他级别的岗位,李牧根本连了解的时间都没有,因为那个岗位的上一级负责人会为这个人以及这个岗位负责,自己只要看负责人反馈的结果即可。 Throwing financing is also same. 投融资方面也是一样。 Muye Science and Technology has own investment arm, this investment arm does not sever a will of Li Mu person, but for the entire Muye Science and Technology service, the foreign investment from several million to several million even hundreds of millions and ten hundreds of millions USD, the span is big, above hundred million Yuan rank, Li Mu will check personally, is lower than hundred million Yuan, invests section person in charge and business agency person in charge, so long as the opinion can decide consistently. Is lower than the investments of ten million level, invests the manager, and committee of investment arm can plenary powers take responsibility. 牧野科技有自己的投资部门,这个投资部门不是为李牧一个人的意志服务的,而是为了整个牧野科技服务,对外投资从几百万到几千万甚至几亿、十几亿美元,跨度非常大,亿元级别以上的,李牧才会亲自把关,低于亿元的,投资部负责人和业务部门负责人只要意见一致就能定下来。低于千万级的投资,一个投资经理,以及投资部门的委员会就可以全权做主。 To Andy Rubin, his new item financing goal even is also less than Ten Million USD, perhaps such project, in the Li Mu eye, listens to belong to waste the time, arranges an investment manager who directly corresponds this amount jurisdiction comes to discuss that with oneself was OK. 对安迪・鲁宾来说,他的新项目融资目标甚至还不到一千万美元,这样的项目,在李牧眼里,恐怕听一听都属于浪费时间,直接安排一个对应这个金额权限的投资经理来跟自己谈就可以了。 However, Li Mu must meet with oneself personally, when this makes Andy Rubin excited, is unavoidably anxious. 但是,李牧偏偏要亲自跟自己见面,这让安迪・鲁宾激动之余,也不免紧张。 ...... …… Larry Page said goodbye from Muye Science and Technology, before saying goodbye he has sent the information to the Google board of directors, making them prepare to hold the emergency meeting, said no matter how, what Li Mu wants is some benefits in Google pocket, rather than must with Google for the enemy, this make the entire Google board of directors relax sufficiently, remaining, is hurries to communicate, has a look to treat as to cross the passage ticket of sea to Li Mu this Venetian merchant minute/share of many interests, can on result in his ship. 拉里・佩奇从牧野科技告辞了,在告辞之前他就已经给谷歌董事会发信息,让他们准备好召开紧急会议,不管怎么说,李牧要的是谷歌口袋里的部分利益,而不是要跟谷歌为敌,这足以让整个谷歌的董事会松一口气了,剩下的,就是赶紧沟通一下,看看给李牧这个威尼斯商人分多少利益当做渡海的船票,才能够上得了他的船。 Li Mu studied a Apple today's stock price in the office, today the Apple stock price shakes slightly for day, the whole fell 2%, basically was stands firm. 李牧在办公室里研究了一下苹果今天的股价,今天苹果股价小幅震荡了一天,整体下跌2%,基本上算是稳住了。 In Apple, the stop-loss sends and counter-attacks send still to try hard for the respective goal respectively. 苹果内部,止损派和反攻派还在各自为各自的目标努力。 The stop-loss faction is still communicating purchase with Microsoft, but the progress is minimal, the Microsoft attitude is quite strong, they only want Apple Operating System and complete machine product service, as for other, they do not prepare to take over a business. 止损派还在与微软沟通收购的事宜,但是进展微乎其微,微软的态度比较强硬,他们只想要苹果操作系统以及整机生产业务,至于其他的,他们并不准备接盘。 However, Apple internal stop-loss faction, what wanted is lets go overall, this also means that takes over the side additionally is Apple a ratio hangs the bad iPod business to pay now, although the iPod call circuit can also extrude almost one hundred million USD fund to supply the temporary turnover, but this is only satisfies thirst by drinking poison, the iPod business following matter is most fearful, the production line work suspension and OEM (original equipment manufacturer) supplier factory settlement, user and dealer returned goods refund money, a large amount of stocks to need to reduce prices to sell to recall the loss, even so, all iPod also hard to at stock condition recalls sells one to owe a destiny. 但是,苹果内部的止损派,想要的是全盘脱手,这也就意味着接手方得额外为苹果现在一比吊糟的ipod业务埋单,虽说ipod业务线还能挤压出差不多一亿美元的资金可以供临时周转,但这只是饮鸩止渴,ipod业务后续的事情才最可怕,生产线停工、代工厂结算、用户与经销商退货退款、大量库存需要降价销售挽回损失,但即便如此,所有处在库存状态的ipod难以挽回卖一台亏一台的命运。 If Microsoft is not willing to capture iPod, that stop-loss sends itself unable to bear such big loss, therefore the entire situation becomes refuses to compromise. 如果微软不愿兜着ipod,那止损派自己也无法承担这么大的损失,所以整个事态变得僵持不下。 However, counter-attacks to send actually to seek for the countermeasure actively. 不过,反攻派却正在积极寻找对策。 This group by the geek team that the programmers, the product managers as well as various technical personnel compose, hugs the agglomerate in the critical juncture completely, goes all out method that looks to be able to collapse, this is also the Apple internal operation online unprecedented great solidarity, Tim Cook although offers up one's life bravely, but actually maintains the mentality and fighting spirit of business team unusual is good. 这帮以程序员、产品经理以及各种技术人员组成的极客团队,在危急关头全部抱成团,拼命寻找能够破局的方法,这也是苹果内部业务线上空前的大团结,蒂姆・库克虽然临危受命,但却把业务团队的心态和斗志维持的非常好。 Counter-attacked to send currently to have the general mentality, they felt, immediately stops the iPod business, closing down the iPod production line the words, that back loss was very difficult to shoulder the past that to Apple, therefore they decided that sought for the new breakthrough in the iPod business, the concrete operations were divided two parts, first, must maintain the production line the situation that continued to revolve to drop to lowly the iPod capacity, then solved present stage iPod to return goods and issue of following low price clearance ; Second, hurries to research and develop new iPod! 反攻派目前已经有了大概的思路,他们觉得,立刻停止ipod业务、关停ipod生产线的话,那背后的损失对苹果来说很难扛的过去,所以他们决定在ipod业务上寻找新的突破,具体操作分两个部分,第一,要把ipod的产能在维持生产线继续运转的情况下降到最低,然后解决现阶段ipod退货以及后续低价清仓的问题;第二,赶紧研发新的ipod Research and development new iPod is most essential, because Tim Cook believes, the Muye Science and Technology Mangomi 2 although performance-to-price ratio is high, but its present capacity has not arrived can the stage of global shop goods, this also means, Mangomi 2 also has a long way to go, it must increase the capacity, the extension sale and post-sale system in the future unceasingly, then completes the market to seize, in this process, Muye Science and Technology is very difficult the unnecessary experience to invest into Mangomi of new generation on, therefore, full speed runs and is unable turn around while Muye Science and Technology, Apple hurries to research and develop can comprehensively exceed Mangomi 2 next generation iPod, became most important of counterattack. 研发新的ipod才是最关键的,因为蒂姆・库克认为,牧野科技mango-me虽然性价比非常高,但是它现在的产能还没到能够全球铺货的阶段,这也就意味着,mango-me二还有很长的路要走,它未来要不断增加产能、扩建销售以及售后体系,然后再完成市场占领,这个过程中,牧野科技很难有多余的经历投入到新一代的mango-me上,所以,趁着牧野科技全速奔跑、无法转身的时候,苹果赶紧研发能全面超越mango-me二的下一代ipod,就成了逆袭的重中之重。 Tim Cook has even started to lead the team to conduct the product project and follow-up development, they designated a preliminary products plan, that in iPod of next generation, realizes the equipment network. 蒂姆・库克甚至已经开始带领团队进行产品立项以及后续开发,他们选定了一个初步的产品方案,那就是在下一代的ipod里,实现设备网络化。 Equipment network, means that iPod will be separated from the computer to a certain extent, becomes enters the internet terminal device directly continually, in this foundation, must support iPod through the connection of internet and iTunes, at least can pass iPod directly from the iTunes download(ing) music. 设备网络化,也就意味着ipod将一定程度上脱离电脑,成为直接连入互联网的终端设备,在这个基础上,就要支持ipod自身通过互联网itunes的连接,起码可以通过ipod直接从itunes下载音乐。 Counter-attacked to send in this issue to have the difference, part believes, they can read in monolithic integrated circuit system the iTunes iPod version software directly, added on the lan module to iPod again, as the matter stands, the user can through the iTunes software download(ing) song on network as well as iPod, the merit of this solution be the development speed is quite quick, and cost was low ; But the shortcoming is also very obvious, with such way design next generation iPod words, it has almost no development space ; 反攻派在这个问题上发生了分歧,一部分认为,他们可以直接将itunesipod版软件写入单片机系统,再给ipod加上lan模块,这样一来,用户就可以通过网络以及ipod上的itunes软件下载歌曲,这个解决方案的优点是开发速度比较快,而且成本低;但缺点也很明显,采用这样的方式设计下一代ipod的话,它几乎没有什么拓展空间; Another part of people believe that since must counter-attack Muye Science and Technology, to reverse the iPod losing battle thoroughly, must surpass Muye Science and Technology in the level of most core, welded together the lan module to iPod as well as reads in the simple iTunes monolithic integrated circuit, although can make iPod enter internet continually and realizes to be separated from the computer use, but this way Muye Science and Technology can also, they also definitely be able to read in the monolithic integrated circuit YY tunes, then tied up with lan is joining together to Mangomi of next generation on, when the time comes Mangomi of new generation surpassed on iPod in the performance, in a big way fought price war again, at that time Apple this/should what to do? 另一部分人认为,既然要反攻牧野科技、要彻底逆转ipod败局,就必须在最核心的层面上赶超牧野科技,给ipod焊上一块lan模块以及写入了简易itunes的单片机,虽然能让ipod连入互联网并实现脱离电脑使用,但这种方式牧野科技也会,他们也完全可以把yytunes写入单片机,然后和lan捆绑在一起加入到下一代的mango-me上,到时候新一代的mango-me又在性能上赶超上ipod,再大打价格战,那时候苹果该怎么办? Therefore, part of people put forward an expansive goal solution: Develops one set of Operating System for iPod! Not only need realize the use of iTunes on iPod, but must realize other software uses, as the matter stands, iPod will have the qualitative change. 所以,这一部分人提出了一个目标远大的解决方案:为ipod开发一套操作系统!不仅仅要在ipod上实现itunes的使用,还要实现其他的软件使用,这样一来,ipod就会发生质变。 To entire world most it Corporation, developing Operating System is really a resilience extremely vast project, moreover overwhelming majority companies simply do not have this fundamental strength, but Apple is different, Apple has this technological strength, moreover there is a very powerful technological strength. 对全世界大多数it公司来说,开发操作系统实在是一个工程量极其浩大的项目,而且绝大部分公司根本没有这个基础实力,但是苹果不一样,苹果有这个技术实力,而且有非常强大的技术储备。 Apple previous life can promote iOS in more than one year, to a great extent according to dragging the maos Operating System background, thus it can be seen, has enough foundation, in the desktop Operating System background, develops one to move Operating System, the difficulty is not big. 苹果上辈子能在一年多的时间里就推出ios,很大程度上依拖maos操作系统的底子,由此可见,有足够的基础,在桌面操作系统的底子上,开发一款移动操作系统,难度并不算大。 This some people want to depend on maos, is iPod develops one set to move Operating System, widens the disparity with Muye Science and Technology thoroughly, Muye Science and Technology , to develop one set to move Operating System, even if plunders the top team from the entire world, still at least takes 35 years can catch on, this time the difference, enough Apple fought a brilliant turnaround. 这部分人就是想靠着maos,为ipod开发一套移动操作系统,彻底与牧野科技拉开差距,牧野科技如果想开发一套移动操作系统,就算从全世界搜刮顶尖团队,也至少需要三五年的时间才能见成效,这个时间差,足够苹果打一个漂亮的翻身仗了。 However, this solution also has its shortcoming, in order to deals one set to move Operating System, Apple needs to iPod the hardware conducts subversively to redesign and promotion, on the one hand this will increase the iPod cost to a great extent, on the one hand will also extend the development cycle. 但是,这个解决方案也有它的缺点,为了能够应对一套移动操作系统,苹果需要对ipod的硬件进行颠覆性的重新设计和升级,这一方面会很大程度上增加ipod的成本,一方面还会延长研发周期。 If on the monolithic integrated circuit, Apple can begin to research and develop immediately, the hardware is mature, the software is also mature, but if on Operating System, resilience immediately geometrical time of rise. 如果是上单片机,苹果立刻就可以着手研发,硬件成熟,软件也成熟,但是如果上操作系统,工程量立刻几何倍上升。 Except that researches and develops own motion Operating System, Apple must in the microprocessors as well as other types of hardware to market conducts the thorough understanding and research, then makes many hardware matching plan, later repeatedly conducts various test proof, finally selects a solution to come out. 除了研发自己的移动操作系统,苹果还要对市面上的微处理器以及其他各种硬件进行深入的了解和研究,然后再制定多套硬件搭配方案,随后反复进行各项测试论证,最后选出一个解决方案出来。 The monolithic integrated circuit plan to Apple, looks like assembles a nonmotile glider toy, on the whole no difficulty ; 单片机方案对苹果来说,就像是组装一架无动力滑翔机玩具,大体上没什么难度; But the Operating System plan, is equal to the nonmotile glider toy , to promote to assembling a remote control model ship of stable, reliable and high performance, that may on the trouble. 操作系统方案,等同于把无动力滑翔机玩具,升级到组装一架稳定、可靠、高性能的遥控航模,那可就麻烦多了。 The choice and matching of the choice of material, electrical machinery and battery, control remotely the choice and matching of the transceiver, electronically-tuning and servo, vast of overall resilience, even to Apple, is a big project. 材料选择、电机与电池的选择与搭配,遥控收发模块、电调、舵机的选择与搭配,整体工程量之浩大,即便是对苹果来说,都是一件大工程。 The project is big, naturally means the time-consuming long time, such plan, from the project to the software and hardware development again to the end product, at least one -and-a-half years to two years of cycle can landing, Apple be tattered and torn, how long but can also in such crisis very? 工程大,自然意味着耗时久,这样的方案,从立项到软硬件开发再到成品,至少一年半到两年的周期才能够落地,苹果本身已经千疮百孔,还能在这样的危机中挺过多久?
