"Apart from emphasizing that Apple is a listed company, allowing American investors to share their interests and patriotic brands, Apple has no other new tricks?"

After sorting out the pressure that had nothing to do with Da Ya, Gu Ao continued to ask.

He felt that the patriotism card was not a problem. Americans were not that patriotic and were not so used by big entrepreneurs.

Why is it that Wang An is not patriotic? Wang An, Wang Lie and his son are definitely pure Americans.

"In addition, according to our review, Jobs' most important competitive strategy is to strengthen the management of software copyright protection as a bargaining chip to attract third-party developers." John Chambers turned the materials to the next part and explained in detail.

Gu Ao raised his eyebrows slightly, feeling that he finally heard something interesting: "Tell me more specifically."

Chambers: "You should know that in the past one or two years - it was fine last year, mainly this year - after Microsoft's MS-DOS 6.0 gradually became popular, the trend of personal computer users secretly cracking and secretly using piracy has also begun to appear.

This demand and bad user habits are gradually spreading to models such as our large closed system manufacturers. There is a market and there are supply. Now some freelance hackers or crackers on the market have begun to crack Wang'an and Apple's software installation verification mechanisms in a planned manner.

Our software and Apple have piracy situations that bypass official installation verification, but the scope and scale are still under control. But if Apple does better than us in anti-piracy, third-party developers who are with them can earn more money and sell more genuine products. Then within one or two years, it is possible that third-party developers will turn to the Apple ecosystem. This is a relatively significant threat I can think of at present, or that Apple may be the most effective counterattack method."

"In a nutshell, Jobs expects Apple to do better in anti-piracy work than Wang An, and to attract developers with this selling point?" Gu Ao was too lazy to talk and summarized directly.

Chambers: "You have no idea how well you summarize."

Gu Ao quickly felt that this was very good at borrowing from some of the lawsuits he had encountered in his previous life, and even Nintendo.

To be honest, on the issue of anti-publication, although Apple later generations represented radicalism and infringement of consumer rights, it was just because Apple's big business has a great influence.

If you only look at the behavioral patterns, Nintendo, known as the "legal department marketing", is not weak at all, especially in terms of domineering standards. Nintendo later generations have been making trouble online, saying that those second-hand platforms sell SWITCH/NS that can solve hidden dangers illegally, infringing on Nintendo's smart property rights.

At most, Apple sued some consumers who broke jailbreaks and flashed their phones, and the two are birds of a feather.

As we all know, in the early 2010s, Apple caused a lawsuit in order to radically restrict consumers from dominating IPHONE's freedom. It was once accused by the EFF Foundation of the United States and was once famous in Europe and the United States and could not take care of itself. The lawsuit was finally fought to the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals, which ruled that Apple completely lost the case by "restricting consumers' dominance over their own property, the basic principle of capitalist legal system."

Nowadays, the EFF Foundation, which claims to be the "electronic outpost Foundation" that claims to "maintain freedom of network and electronic use" as its mission, has a deep connection with Gu Ao—

As early as 1982, Gu Ao gave a sponsor to the founder of the EFF Foundation.

Of course, it is purely sponsored for public welfare purposes, and it has nothing to do with the subsequent EFF Foundation launching a public interest lawsuit to criticize Atari, who had not yet fallen.

When Gu Ao gave money, no matter how the other party spent it. The other party made a decision to Atari by making a spontaneous decision.

So now, Gu Ao can do it as usual.

Although Apple is currently only cracking down on cracking and not hitting consumers, Gu Ao believes that as long as he takes advantage of the situation, Jobs will be unable to calm down.

As for those cracking groups, Gu Ao doesn’t have to worry about them or arrange them. The industry interests are there, and cracking groups will definitely become more and more radical.

Gu Ao just needs to make Wang An more gentle in anti-cracking and be more principled, and don’t “defend too much” and compare it with Apple at that time.

Once the lawsuit is out, use media resources to fan the flames and completely slander Apple.

In this way, the "war for software library scale" between Apple and Wang An will naturally decide the outcome.

At this pace, it will take about several months to make the game - because it will take time to wait for Apple to be induced to endure it.

Then he went back and forth, it would take about a year.

Gu Ao felt that by next year, in 1992, if you completely understand this matter, you will almost complete the task successfully.

Although history has been accelerated, Bill Gates' "WIN93" must have not been launched at that time. Gu Ao is confident that he will end the battle before Microsoft's WINDOWS enters the field and achieve decisive results.

Apple, just wait to smell like the next Atari.

On the tenth anniversary of Atari's destruction, the way of death like Atari must have a sense of historical heroism and commemorative significance.

In the future, when people write about industry history, they will write about Gu Ao's great deeds of destroying a big boss in the industry in ten years and leaving nowhere to stay for thousands of miles.

Without waiting for future people to write, Gu Ao will be able to let his wife, as a witness of history, collect first-hand materials and start writing from a first-person perspective.

Gu Ao sorted out his thoughts and ordered Chambers to continue making arrangements like this.

Regarding the EFF Foundation, Chambers doesn’t need to come forward, Gu Ao can contact him in one line.

"We have one principle. All business operations run by Wang'an Computer must be based on the principle of protecting private property sacred and inviolable.

Property rights are absolute rights, creditor rights are relative rights, and intellectual property rights shall not override property rights. You can take care of the remaining specific operations yourself.

And I can tell you that in the future, I will not only uphold this set of values ​​in Wang An’s business. In Tiankun’s game console industry, and even other people’s business, I will uphold this set of ideas.

I will not leave any handles and black materials for future historians to say that I, 'When a certain set of values ​​is beneficial to Gu Ao, he will adopt this set of values. When another value is beneficial to him, he will change his course' - historians do not have such opportunities, they can only pinch their noses and admit that Gu is a set of values ​​that have been consistent to the end."

What else can Chambers say when he heard this? He can only admire his boss's high mountains.

Looking at this state, competing with his current peers can no longer satisfy Mr. Gu. He has already considered the issue from the perspective of leaving a name in history and cherished his reputation.

If this is let go, one hand cannot destroy Jobs.

...

After clearly organizing the war with Apple, Gu Ao lingers in San Francisco for several days.

By the way, I went to Southern California and had a small gathering with Arnold, Cameron, Harvey Weinstein to talk about the latest release progress - the film "The True Lies". Because it was released two and a half years earlier than the same period in history, the premiere in the United States was three months before the official disintegration of USSR, which is enough to prove Gu Ao's vision for the international trend.

To put it bluntly, the former consultant of Brezinski in history, who resented Lucians by singing, was similar to the resentful woman who was resentful. After singing for 10 years, he was lucky enough to hit Lucia and then gained a huge reputation and gained a reputation second only to Professor Ki in the international relations analysis industry. You must know that before the prediction of USSR was realized, Brezinski's reputation was almost hovering on the edge of the stinky street.

It can be seen how awesome this God's prophecy has to improve a person's international reputation and status.

Unfortunately, in this life, Rezinsky was destined to be an outdated and outdated old professor. Gu Ao's "The True Lies" has gained great popularity in the deduction industry and has snatched all the benefits of reputation.

But there is also a disadvantage, that is, this film cannot be released globally in a relatively short period of time like "Terminator 2" - because many European countries on the go and see will definitely not let you play such radical films for the time being.

Therefore, the early popularity of "True Lies" is temporarily limited to North America.

This is a film with a huge box office in North America and other markets around the world secretly watching the wind.

But no matter how you wait and see, as the film was first premiered in the United States in the second half of 1992, it has been 9 months since the film was premiered in the United States, and even the most conservative European countries have begun to show. Even Gu Ao's motherland on the other side of the ocean has begun to introduce the first-part films. In the past ten years, although China also bought foreign films every year, they were all bought out, with an average of 30,000 to 50,000 US dollars per film, and China Film imported monopoly.

Historically, the country only opened up the attempt to share the share system around 1994, and the first place at that time was left to "The True Lies". Now the place has not changed at all, but the reform has accelerated for more than a year.

Maybe it was because this film had greater practical significance and warning value. After all, the Chinese were still confused about the sudden collapse of the northern neighbors and did not know how to deal with it. A Chinese discerning person saw this problem N years in advance and even filmed a risky deduction. The plot was still good, and it was unreasonable not to introduce it.

As for letting Gu Ao make money... it doesn't matter in China anymore.

So this time, after communicating with Harvey, Gu Ao saw a very beautiful global output, with an estimated total revenue of at least 500 million US dollars.

After handling all the business in California, some invitations to Gu Ao to attend and interfere with the East Coast came from the East Coast.

Gu Ao had a rough understanding of some of them were Internet and digital technology industry associations that were accepted by senior Bill. Obviously, everyone wanted to hold some meetings and formulate the technical definition of the "Internet" in the plan, protocol standards, etc.

Listening to the tone of the mysterious departments of the United States, according to the current situation, many associations are leaving a way out for themselves. Everyone is looking forward to directly launching a new global economy after January next year. The basic definition of the "Internet" must be completed within this year.

Gu Ao will attend the conference as a global pioneer in the field of e-commerce, bring his experts with him, and seize the right to make a statement in the formulation of standards in some sub-sectors such as electronic signatures/digital certifications and IPV4 architectures, and can vote at the same time.

As for why he is qualified, there is really little to say here. (It was better than the American powerful and powerful at the beginning to not make friends with each other and would not be able to entrust books)
