Chapter 140 The Ambition of Strategic Space Expansion!

Apple's internal meeting ended with a sigh.

At the meeting, after discussions among several directors, Cook finally announced that he would abandon several new iPhones under development, and instead unite with the existing Samsung LCD factory, making every effort to focus on flexible technology, shortening the time-to-response relationship as soon as possible. The gap between the four major mobile phone manufacturers in Emerald Island and Huaguo in terms of flexible mobile phones.

When making this decision, Cook almost said it with tears in his eyes.

It's so useless!

As a senior manager who has worked in many world-renowned companies, Cook has never been so aggrieved.

This time, he can be regarded as a complete failure in dealing with the changes brought about by flexible technology.

Of course, the more reason is that he did not clearly realize that the scientific and technological strength of Emerald Island is so strong that it was able to break through the difficulties of flexible technology in just a few months, and finally united with several major players in Huaguo. Potential mobile phone manufacturers have pushed forward the advent of the flexible era for several years!

Only then did he know that Emerald Island is the enemy of Apple Company for life!

And for this, the price Apple paid was obviously very painful!

Directly interrupting the research and development process of future generations of Apple mobile phones will directly lead to the complete failure of Apple's business strategy for several years, and the resulting losses will be immeasurable.

Even if it is conservatively estimated, it will be more than tens of billions of dollars!

Secondly, the existing large inventory will also collapse due to the official launch of flexible mobile phones. Even if the price is greatly reduced, the loss will be heavy.

In addition, other supporting production line facilities and component reserves will also have to be abandoned.

Therefore, on the whole, the sudden advent of the era of flexible mobile phones will directly lead to losses of more than US$100 billion for Apple, which is absolutely devastating!

However, fortunately, after more than ten years of accumulation, Apple has a large amount of current reserves, which is life-saving for Apple, which is in a bad situation today.

After Cook announced at the meeting that Apple had officially entered a transition period, this once world-leading technology company had to enter the stage of its rise.

...

Compared with the tragic experience of Apple, Huawei and the other three Huaguo mobile phone manufacturers are ushering in a period of rapid development. Regardless of the order volume, market share, and company valuation, they have shown an explosive trend!

After Huawei entered the global sales stage, three mobile phone companies, Xiaomi, OPPO, and VIVO, also launched their own mobile phone brands and spread them to the world market.

With the support of Emerald Island's second-generation flexible mobile phone production line, the four companies were able to effectively solve the problem of mass supply, and their market shares have all been exponentially improved.

Prior to this, the share of the four major mobile phone manufacturers was all concentrated in Huaguo. From a global perspective, the combined rate did not exceed 40%. This is still in the case of Huaguo's large population.

However, when the four major mobile phone manufacturers spread to the world, they ushered in a comprehensive expansion.

In just a few months, the market share has exceeded 80%, and as the leader, Huawei, because of taking the lead, has even captured 35% of it, becoming the undisputed leader in the world. The largest mobile phone manufacturer, firmly sit on the dominant position!

Users who still use mobile phone brands such as Apple and Samsung will gradually replace them with flexible mobile phones after facing problems such as mobile phone aging. Therefore, it can be expected that the market share of the four major mobile phone manufacturers will continue to increase. Improve and continue to squeeze the living space of other mobile phone manufacturers.

This is devastating to the entire mobile phone company in the world!

However, there is no way. The flexible mobile phone technology is all in the hands of Emerald Island. It is undoubtedly a huge problem to catch up and even surpass it.

The technical barriers one after another are enough to make them fall on the way forward.

...

Compared with the battered Apple company, Jiang Cheng at this time seemed much more relaxed.

Octopus Island.

102 meters under the sea, the future ship laboratory.

Through the sightseeing glass, Jiang Cheng looked at all kinds of fish swimming on the bottom of the sea while tasting the fine wine in the glass, feeling very uncomfortable.

Now Huawei and other four major mobile phone manufacturers have grown up completely, and Jiang Cheng does not need to focus all his attention on the development of flexible technology.

As the saying goes, it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish.

After nearly a year of deployment, flexible technology has finally blossomed. Not only has it defeated the biggest potential rival Samsung, but it has also completely supported several major technology companies in Huaguo.

In this way, the allies of Emerald Island have grown stronger again.

In fact, after such a long period of experience, Jiang Cheng has deeply realized that it is necessary to integrate all available forces to develop and strengthen himself.

Relying solely on the Emerald Island, it still seems a bit weak, especially at the current stage, when the powerful forces around are trying to curb its growth.

This point can be seen from Han country's daring to dispatch a fleet to threaten Emerald Island.

Although in the end, Jiang Cheng succeeded in destroying the enemy by relying on the secretly developed fleet, but this also made Jiang Cheng deeply aware that the geographical location and narrow strategic space of Emerald Island are really factors that hinder Emerald Island from becoming a powerful force.

In fact, it is right to think about it. Such a small area, even with a strong military force, is still extremely vulnerable when faced with a powerful fire attack from the enemy.

Therefore, after this incident, Jiang Cheng realized that it was time to expand the strategic space of Emerald Island.

Long ago, when Jiang Cheng developed the man-made island Nanyao Island, he secretly set such a future development direction, that is, relying on the cutter suction dredger in his hand to build the island by blowing sand The surrounding sea area around the island has created artificial islands.

In this way, the strategic space of Emerald Island can be greatly expanded!

Although the area of ​​the island that can be increased by this method is not worth mentioning, it is equivalent to expanding the territorial sea area in a disguised form. As a result, the strategic space can be expanded geometrically!

The current Emerald Island, with Nanyao Island guarding the gate to the south, is no longer a concern.

But to the north and east, the door is wide open, so we have to guard against it.

You know, in these two directions, there are threats from maritime powers such as Japan and the United States, so Jiang Cheng has to prepare in advance.

Especially, when the technological level of Emerald Island continues to improve, which has seriously threatened the core interests of Japan and the United States.

In addition, in the future, Jiang Cheng still has a large number of technological products to be launched worldwide, which will continue to have an impact on the entire world of technological companies.

In order to preserve these scientific and technological achievements in the future, Jiang Cheng feels that it is necessary to strengthen the land-based defense force of Emerald Island before that, in order to prevent Japan and the United States from launching military threats to him like Han!
